I've got questions on what is allowed based on what focus your character has, considering Persona characters tend to have more than strictly two focuses. Ann with her Tarunda, Dormina/Lullaby, Diarahan, and top-tier magic attacks come to mind, or the Jazz club that lets you slap Debilitate on anyone, for example. I'm not even sure where Dekaja/Dekunda/-karn skills come in, though they're generally not useful enough to justify their own category.

Either way I've got a character ready. Would more than one character be allowed?

[b][color=#005ee5]Name[/color]:[/b] Radcliff "Cliff" Conary

[b][color=#005ee5]Personality[/color]:[/b] Radcliff is a blunt and generally nonchalant person. He prefers brutal truth and practicality over idealism or having his feelings spared, and he can only sheepishly apologize when it's pointed out to him that not everyone feels the same way. In general, he is kind and polite, with a strong moral compass, but he is also a lot more reckless than most people expect, and will often walk the line when it comes to following the rules.

He's admittedly a bit promiscuous, and has a habit of viewing his relationships as transactional, though he's honest about it, and isn't opposed to romance per se, though he finds it difficult to get emotionally attached to people he doesn't know well. To that end, he has few friends, but the ones he does have he'd probably die for.

[b][color=#005ee5]Background[/color]:[/b] Radcliff lived a relatively simple life and had equally simple hobbies: Fishing, cooking (fish), bar hopping with his friends, karaoke (though he's terrible at it) and casual hookups if he's in the mood and his two friends with benefits aren't. He's known them since elementary school, and while the time they tried to date each other had been a bit awkward considering it was after he had hooked up with both of them, he was happy for them. That being said, they eventually broke up and things returned to how they were. Alongside a few other friends, they all try to meet up and do something together once a week, if they're available. On separate occasions, both of his casual partners have dropped suspicious hints, though when he asked them about it directly, they both told him that it didn't mean anything. For better or for worse, Cliff chose to take this at face value, if only because he believes that's what he'd like for them to do if the roles were reversed.

His parents are relatively well-off, if a bit dysfunctional, so he's never had to worry about money, and he even received a boat for one of his birthdays a couple years ago, which sees quite a lot of use considering how much fishing he does. He sells some of the fish if the local stalls are manned and interested in buying them, and rents out his boat when he isn't using it for extra income, but otherwise he works at a hardware store, a job he likely won't be keeping for long. As immaculate as his customer service and de-escalation skills are, he finds it exhausting. At the least, he has this weekend to look forward to. His friends are joining him on his boat for fishing, swimming, and general partying, and the forecast for that day is... good...?

[b][color=#005ee5]Other Information[/color]:[/b] Does it truly count as alcoholism if your tolerance is monstrous and you only drink socially?

[b][color=#00ffbb]Persona[/color]:[/b] Mermaid

[b][color=#00ffbb]Arcana[/color]:[/b] Hanged Man

[b][color=#00ffbb]Element[/color]:[/b] Ice

[b][color=#00ffbb]Affinities[/color]:[/b] Resists Ice, weak to Electric

[b][color=#00ffbb]Primary Focus[/color]:[/b] Debuffs (I would like to give him a passive skill that grants a chance to debuff random stats when hitting an enemy, to go with [url=https://megamitensei.fandom.com/wiki/Stormcaller_Song]Mermaid's unique multi-hit skill[/url]. Else, I'd probably deprioritize and maybe replace it, depending on what is allowed)
[b][color=#00ffbb]Secondary Focus[/color]:[/b] Healing

[b][color=#00ffbb]Persona Info[/color]:[/b] Mythical Aquatic creatures with the top half of a woman and the lower half of a fish, Mermaids are sometimes regarded as omens of misfortune, associated with floods, storms, shipwrecks, and drownings. In some legends, they use their voices to charm men, causing them to crash their ships or to jump overboard before drowning and eating them. In others, they are portrayed as falling in love with humans, often with the reconciliation between the two worlds as a major source of conflict. In recent times, they are sometimes portrayed as symbols of hopelessness, doomed to suffer whether on land or at sea, choked out by the air of an unforgiving world or the pollution of a tainted sea, the stagnation of either captivity or an insular society and the isolation of having to leave all they know behind to survive no matter what choice they make.

For more than one character: I wouldn't be opposed if you're alright with keeping track of them and their abilities, relationships, etc. But I won't allow more than two per person.

For focuses: Here's the classifications I had in mind.
Phys/Gun - Aside from the obvious, the option for Charge.

Magic - Severe magic skills, if primary focus than you get your choice of Focus or Megido skills.

Support - Your choice of Healing, Ailment Removal, Revival, -karn skills. You pick three if it's a primary focus, two if it's secondary.

Buffing - Single-target and all-target buffs, Rebellion/Revolution, Dekunda, Heat Riser.

Debuffing - Single-target and all-target debuffs, Debilitate, Dekaja.

Additionally, due to the power of Heat Riser and Debilitate, if you take those you can't take other options for buffing and debuffing. (falling under buff and debuff respectively). If you pick Heat Riser, I will allow you to (much later) take Thermopylae, but it will be retaining the requirement that it can only be used if you've been ambushed.

Yes, I'm aware that Persona characters typically have more than two by that standard. This is for both my sanity, and to reduce overlap between characters.
