Name: Satoshi Goto

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Arcana: Tower

Equipment: Kendo Bokken, Band aids, cough drops, energy drinks, snacks, modded laptop, Smart phone,
Skills: Trained in Kendo, knows first aid, always prepared, eye for detail, good at puzzles

Appearance:

Personality: Satoshi first comes off as arrogant, selfish, privileged, and a complete jerk. But in reality he's reasonable, smart, considerate, and at times a little naive and introverted. In conversation he comes off as apathetic and listless due to his experience of being befriended for his family's wealth instead of befriended for himself. He always make sure he doesn't sound like a snooty asshole or condescending of others. He also has an addiction to the internet and modern technology as he is often messing around on his computer or phone. He's also a massive nerd over Anime, Manga, and Sentai, which he often denies he's into it if he doesn't know you, but he will talk about little else if he knows you and is comfortable around the person.

Biography: Satoshi comes from a rich family of businessmen and women who care more about money and success over anything else. He was raised more by caretakers then his parents which is why he resents them so much. He lived a privileged and lonely childhood, as extended family would often shoo them away as it would take time away from their son's lessons but he pretty much unlimited freedom on his own time not doing studies or school work, for instance he trained in Kendo and spend many hours on the internet. Middle school wasn't anything important because he was home schooled by expansive tutors.

But it was during high school that he convinced his parents to allow him to attend normal school, he quickly became popular as the rich, mysterious, transfer student. He was content with his life as a popular kid until his senior year where his parents forced an arranged marriage on him of a girl he never met or face the consequences of saying no. He said no. Which his parents took as a maybe later and forced him out of their house with only the bare minimum of money monthly to live until he says yes. Satoshi's so called friends dropped him like he was nothing and avoided him saying he's not rich anymore so he wasn't worth their time. And so he became introverted and avoided people and social interactions outside of the internet and the Kendo club ever since the fallout.

@Crimmy would it be correct to assume that Jack has gotten his persona now too?

@Zelosse He's free to summon it, given that it's a stressful situation, and there's wacky magic going on.

@Cerberus0807 Drop the Giant Slice to a physical that's something lower damage for now.

Oi, apologies for the rather poor Houdini act. I'm working on a short post now and should have it up in a few.

@Crimmy Okay, I changed Giant Slash to Power Slash.

yes

Will we be doing a two-parter persona set like in the games (Io to Isis for Yukari, as an example) or just sticking to one?

@Brose I believe we are going to have ultimate personae, aye. It depends all on the development of the characters and such.

I mean, my characters persona is going to go from Alexander to Zeus in the near future, so there's that.

@Crimmy

Name: Jun Oshiro
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Arcana: The Devil
Equipment: Cigarettes, a lighter, pencils, sketchpad, and a container of concealer.
Skills: Pickpocketing, picking locks, running (used to be really into athletic clubs in middle school), and various art skills (particularly good at drawing).

Personality: Jun is a very selfish, angry and turbulent adolescent. He had a good upbringing, but there was always something that unnerved him about his parents. The look in his mother’s eye when he tried to bring up his biological father, the anger in his father’s voice when he tried to push his mother about it. The jealousy Jun felt when he saw how much his mother and stepfather gave so much love and attention to his baby half-sister, than they ever gave to him. Jun grew up hiding a deep resentment to his parents that would just fester over the years.

But when he met Takeo, things became a bit more bearable. Jun adored Takeo. If there was anyone in the world who understood Jun the most, and could calm the anger brewing inside of him; it was Takeo. But in time, Jun began to grow to understand that he himself could never have friends, or relationships. He was a “bad seed.” His selfishness brought pain to Takeo, Takeo’s family and other friends, and even his own parents. Everything Jun touched; he’d end up breaking or hurting. So over the years of his high school term, Jun’s learned to just embrace this part of him that he deems the truth; that he is “the devil.” He thrives in his own vices and destructive habits, and doesn’t plan to change. He keeps his distance from people emotionally and often acts out and is abrasive just to keep folks from getting too close, but secretly desires companionship and friends.

Biography: Jun was born the bastard son of a married, wealthy businessman and his secretary mistress who genuinely believed her lover would leave his wife for her; but unfortunately for Ms. Oshiro, that was never going to happen and she found out that the hard way. Ostracized from her family and friends for the scandal of an out of wedlock child, Jun’s father at least was willing to pay for both Jun and his mother to move out of town and live somewhere far away, where the scandal wouldn’t come back to bite him. There, Ms. Orshiro managed to raise Jun and married a nice man who served as a good stepfather for Jun.

For many years, Jun grew up in this happy environment with little to no problems. He had friends, and one particularly good friend named Takeo. Jun and Takeo were thick as thieves and inseparable for most of their elementary and middle school days, and were so until the two had a big argument one day, which put a heavy strain on their relationship. Takeo started hanging out with other kids and ignoring Jun entirely. Angry and jealous, Jun sought for revenge by leaking a huge secret of Takeo’s to the entire school. Soon, Takeo became the laughing stock of his school. Nobody wanted to hang out with Takeo, and soon he became the prime target for bullies and was harassed for weeks. Jun was content with this; for if he couldn’t be friends with Takeo, then no one could. Takeo would have to come back to him, since no one else would be with him.

But this did not go as Jun planned, for Takeo instead attempted to take his own life at the top of the school’s building. Horrified, Jun just watched as his friend fell to the ground. Jun did not want this. He just wanted to be with Takeo. He just didn’t want to be alone. He never wanted any of this; but it did not matter.

Takeo ended up surviving the fall, but not without being critically injured and in a coma. Takeo’s family was in an uproar and blame fell to Jun, his most trusted friend who betrayed him. Takeo’s family threatened to pursuit legal action, but the school managed to talk them out of it, as long as Jun was transferred elsewhere and moved out of town. Jun’s parents quickly agreed to the deal and moved to a new town as soon as they could. Things were going to be better. Jun was in a whole new town, it was a blank slate and he could start over with no scandal to follow him. It was all going to be okay and back to normal.

Or, it should’ve been, but Jun began to fall into some bad crowds, and started heading down the path of delinquency. Smoking, skipping school, sneaking out at night, picking fights with other students, vandalism, arson…it began getting worse and worse over the years. Every night Jun came home at 3 in the morning, his mother would just break down in tears. Jun and his stepfather would get into fights and in some cases it would get physical. Eventually, it got to a point where his mother had to resort to calling Jun’s biological father, and beg him for help.

His father worked out a deal with Jun’s aunt and uncle (on his mother’s side) in the city of Shikatsu, which he’d pay them to watch Jun and deal with his antics for his remaining high school term. Jun’s father also pulled some strings to have Jun accepted in Uchima Senior High. Jun was not happy about the move, especially since he wasn’t allowed a voice in the decision, and has since then been continuing his antics. His aunt and uncle don’t seem to care as long as they don’t have to get involved if he gets caught, which has been fine with him. Jun spends most of his time out at night in the streets of Shikatsu, or smoking behind the school after hours.

Angry delinquent son has been delivered. Let me know if there are any issues.

Huh... I'm thinking my Jin may have met this person at some point or another.. Jin knows a lot of the 'bad people'. Very interesting, I like him!

We could do something like that~ Although ngl I'm tempted right now to change his name cause I just realized how similar Jin/Jun is. Oh man that's gonna definitely trip me up a little. Although not as bad as having two Kimikos.

Btw, I'm assuming the name order is "First" and then "Surname" correct? It's normally reversed in Japan but since most of us are English speakers...I wasn't sure.

A lot of characters do names in eastern order for the sake of realism and character, but OOC, we basically just use western order for convenience.

@Brose Go for it.

And yeah, I've been using western order in the narrative, but in dialogue I use eastern order from time to time. The NPC profiles I've written are in eastern order though, just to fit the kanji I've shoved next to them.

@Crimmy so question on making my first post in the IC im not sure how i should start like should I start it as my character just starting his day or something like that?
