[OOC] Persona: Through the Looking Glass

[The Jest]

Ok then. I don't like rushing but you best hurry, I'll be starting up the IC and closing down the sign-ups later tonight.

[Makatsume Haru]

Yay we finally going IC! ^.^

[Goat God]

am I allowed to be a shadow? I feel like being something related to the mad hatter.

[Tyrant from the West]

Looking forward to this, hope it goes well.

Yes you can be a Shadow, But you can't be any of the ones already on the list, and I don't think Omni (My Partner, Petulant) will allow you to be closely related to the Mad Hatter.

Besides, according to Omni, the Mad Hatter won't exactly be a central character, for most of the time after his introduction and first fight, he'll spend time being injured for most of the story.

But yes, you CAN make a Shadow, and one with a Persona at that. (It's just as mandatory for these shadows as it is for the humans.)

[Goat God]

What's Arcana mean? does that have anything to do with magic, because that's what it seems like.

[Makatsume Haru]

Arcana is for what arcana represents your character, as in the Tarot Cards, ya know the moon, the devil, the fool, etc...

[Goat God]

okay thanks.

BTW, mopsock are you an otaku?

I don't do anything except sit in front of my computer all day, so I guess I am one.

[Tyrant from the West]

Sorry I can't provide ya with a link mr. Goat but if you go google "persona arcana wiki" or something along those lines, you can find the games wiki page about all of them so you can read about any of the ones that sound interesting! Again, sorry I can't just give you a link but A man on a phone is crippled when it comes to things like this!

[Sen]

I edited it, Jest. His Persona is based on a mythological figure now, so it should be all good in the hood now.

[The Jest]

Ok then. I don't see anything particularly bad either so...

Ken is in.

Also Sen, Just so you know, Bres' image is Broken.

Oh, and P.S.S. ...Thanks to P2, it's arguable if whether or not P1's events existed in this timeline anyways. So because of that, I will ignore it.

[Jakeozzy]

So, I've never Persona'd before... And am here at the request of mein glorious mentor, The Jest. If I'm doing anything wrong, it'll be edited out and replaced soon enough XD Overdue CS's are overdue. And I do apologize if these are a little messy. I really had no idea what might work for this RP, so~... that's what I have. There's still some stuff I need to edit IN or probably improve. x_x

Arthur Blackburn

Name: Arthur Blackburn
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Attire: ^ Wears a black shirt and has dark grey jeans.
Arcana: Justice
Weapon: Dual Flintlock pistols, complete with detachable sword-bayonets
Personality: Arthur is quite a distant and cold person emotionally, but this is (mostly) redeemed through his sense of what's right and wrong. In other words, he's kind of a jerk, but not to an extent he could be hated for it.
Backstory: Arthur always wanted to become an investigator for the police like his father, always chasing down a lead or keeping tabs on individuals that he'd planned to find red-handed. The man wasn't famous or anything, just another officer that did his job and ignored the hell out of the naysayers in the public. His name only hit the news once - when he was found dead in an alley after reportedly looking for information regarding a cop killer. Arthur took it to heart, being a child at the time he fell into a strong belief that the world was worse than it sometimes appeared to be. Throughout his teenage years he trained his mind and body so that one day he might be able to finish what his father couldn't. It wasn't quite a grim revenge like one might imagine... All he wanted was the killer behind bars so that nobody else had to go through what he had. Arthur's first and greatest catch was that very man, after luring him into a trap in which the Metropolitan police ended up beating the killer unconscious before hauling the restless, murderous man off with a sizable security detail. According to the police, the one who'd tipped them off to the killer's location was anonymous. Arthur believes his mind for cunning and strategy will continue to be a valuable asset to the police in the future, and of course be a service to the public without shedding any light on himself as a safety measure.

Persona Name: Honos
Persona Appearance: I still need to find something/describe something here...
Persona Skills: Skewer, Hama, Bufu
Character Relevance: Will enter soon! Best I just throw the CS's here for now!

Hayleigh Blackburn

Name: Hayleigh Blackburn
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance:

Attire: ^
Arcana: Strength
Weapon: Oh, ...herself or a strong, wooden meter ruler
Personality: Hayleigh would be the more cheerful and welcoming of the Blackburn siblings. Despite usually reserving herself to her librarian job and being an intellectual sort, she's quite hotheaded, loud and upbeat when with other people.
Backstory: While her year-older brother was off making criminals lives a lot less smooth, Hayleigh got on with her her own life with the ideal that cherishing every moment was better than dwelling on the past. She's lived quite a mixed lifestyle... After being dubbed her school's athletic prodigy and passing her exams with flying colours, the happy-go-lucky kid decided to get a job in a very quiet place - the library. Hayleigh's a tricky one to understand for those who know her well - ridiculous and loud at times, while calm, silent and collected at others. It's as if she's found perfect balance, and lives her life as a strong girl with a kind heart.

Persona Name: Virtus
Persona Appearance: Should be similar/close-looking to Honos I suppose...
Persona Skills: Skewer, Skull Cracker Agi
Character Relevance: Same situation as Arthur's CS!

[Omnial]

...huh...Either Arthur Blackburn and Connor Morgan will be best friends or hate each other to no end...As they are extremely similar...Great minds think alike?

[Jakeozzy]

^ I am all for this theory ^

...Where do I begin?

I'll start off by saying that this is probably partially my fault. I don't usually rush people for this very reason, but I had to this time because of how late you came in and the deadline I made for this.

With that said, however, Based on first impressions, I can tell you came here for to join for the Wonderland aspects of this RP. ...Unfortunately, only the environments and characters are of Wonderland. It's not the same story, and aspects in which it runs is of Persona, not Wonderland, and I can tell you're not exactly familiar with that series. That's alright as it is an underrated series, but all the same...

So you have two choices. ...You can either stay, and let me teach you the aspect of Persona. ...Or you can go. If you choose to stay, then allow me to criticize what exactly is wrong with your CS. If you choose to go, then skip everything below this.

1. The Appearance. I already told you that there's already a Mad Hatter. You can't have another like him, not even looking like him. Everyone on that list on the first page is unavailable, as they're characters use by other people. However, any wonderland characters that AREN'T of this list (Save for the King of Spades.) ARE available for use.

2. The Arcana: The Foolish Killer is not an Arcana, at all. If it is, it's of a different deck then the one we're using. Thank you, Omnial for giving him that list. And remember, Goat, The Fool, The Jester, The Hunger/Lust, and The World/Universe, are ALL forbidden and unavailable. Every other arcana feel free to use.

3. Illusions, But to what extent? How far can it go, how good is the quality, what are the drawbacks. A power like that needs to be detailed, otherwise it's a worry that it could be god-modded.

4. In Need of a Persona. You need a Persona that befits the character, it HAS to be a mythological entity that already exists, and can't be of your own creation. It does also have to fit with the Arcana you choose.

That's about all I have an actual problem with.

Wait, one more thing, There has to be some bit of effort and detail into the profile as a whole. This is the Casual Section, There has to be SOME effort put into this stuff at least. ...Not really something I have a problem with, per se, but something I feel should be addressed since, again, this is a Casual level RP.

[The Jest]

Whether Goat is in or not, either way...

Time's Up.

The Sign-ups are now Closed and by the time all of you probably reads this, the IC will be up and the RP shall begin.

Anybody who is still interested in joining, will now be on stand-by, and won't be in the RP until a spot is in need of a replacement.

@Jake: Normally, like I told Silvir, I can't accept incomplete Profiles, however, since yours is close to completion, and it may take some time anyways before we get to awakening everyone's personas, (The White Rabbit can only take out so many Pocketwatches and weapons at a time... So some of you might not actually be fighting until later on.) you still have some time to complete it. Ergo, because of this, your twins are in. With that said. ...Let the games begin!

[IVIasterJay]

There are two character named Eve. That could be confusing.
