You know those old Saturday morning cartoons you used to watch as a child? Where the hero and his team would always win despite how daunting the task may seem? We were so innocent back then, life was simpler and everything seemed fair. Sadly real life is anything but fair...
In the real world so much pain is normal we dig our heels and endure it for the sake of being part of society. We are told that we have no choice because we live in a world where the rich gain money from other peoples hard work, where art is a business and we buy things just to make ourselves look good, where the one who is meant to instill justice to criminals is actually the biggest criminal himself. People say that so long as you work hard you will be successful and they are the biggest lairs.
Life is unfair but that isn't why you are here. You are here because like everyone else here you resorted to being a criminal in the eyes of the world. Either for revenge, justice, a sense of duty whatever the reason may be. At first you were all victims of the infamous serial murderer blood eye they are called this because the victims eyes bleed and keep bleeding until they simply die from blood loss or infection. It is a horrendous way to go and their is no cure, the only reason you know its not a disease is because of a simple fact. Your loved one, your friend, someone you cared about, they all were given a letter signaling they were the next target. Of course they called police, called in favors, even tried leaving the country. None of these have worked and have all died the same way. Clearly the police wont do their job, are you willing to do anything to get your brand of justice or vengeance? What will happen when you discover that the killer is actually a small cog in a bigger and much darker machine...

First off thanks for reading till the end of that story :) I want to first state that this reality is something I made up save for the persona elements we will obviously be using. As a result we will be delving into new territory, I have only played Persona 5 and what little i know of the universe i learned from someone else so please don't be afraid to join if you find the idea interesting but don't know about persona in general. Keep in mind that what we will do is mostly use the information from Persona 5 which is the most recent game to my knowledge. So first off I will explain what a persona is to those that don't already know:
Next thing to understand is Arcana:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will take this opportunity to explain what will make this group function as an organization so to speak:
- First you are all victims of the blood eye cases
- Secondly you feel you need to find the killer it doesn't matter what reason you give your character but you must feel it strongly enough to go to any lengths to find said killer.
Your characters must have both these requirements in order to join this rp
please know that this will allow this group to form more cohesively and with greater direction. After all none of you know each other and their is no reason to trust one another but these two facts are what will give the group its common goal to strive towards despite this.

Rules:
1. What the Gm and co Gm says is law but we will listen to reason and will take suggestions.
2. You can kill each other but only if both parties agree to the death.
3. I don't mind if you get into a heated discussion OOC, however, any arguments that become name calling and hostile I will ask that you go to your PM we are not children so don't act like it.
4.Your Persona must be based off a realistic or fictional character: good examples are Arsene Lupin, Zorro, Genghis khan Bad examples: Naruto, Ichigo, Or making something up
5. You must follow at least a few of the behaviors of your chosen Arcana within your character, they don't need to be exact but enough that you can say you follow its example
6. As proof you looked over this write down Phantom thieves
As this is an interest check i will not post up the character sheet until i am sure this has enough interest.
