Okay then, Persona RP time! In a nutshell, the lovely little town of Warakuma is experiencing a bit of a Badly-Behaved-Teenager-itis epidemic. Since this is a tad unusual, quite a few people are concerned about this, but can't really do much about it. Because, really, what's even the cause? How do you cure cults? Who's doing the brainwashing? THINK OF THE CHILDREN!

Unbeknownst to the world at large, however, the true cause isn't something... normal. See, it turns out there's another world out there. A world that can only be accessed under certain conditions. See, all you need is a large mirror, magic powers, and or something with said magic powers to shove you inside, and voila! You're inside the Reverse World. Or Mirror World. Or Flip-Floppity Land.
Putting that aside, this place is quite dangerous, as it's teeming with 'Shadows'. They're pretty horrible monsters that would very much like to devour you. If you want to have any chance of surviving, you're going to need to evoke the power of Persona. How do you do that, you ask? Well... you'll know, once you need to know.
For now, here's some rules for ya.

  • Standard 'No God-Moding', No harrassment', 'no meta-gaming' etc. stuff applies.

  • One character per Tarot, if only to enforce diversity.

  • Relatedly, stick to Personas within your arcana, please. If you're using someone or something that's not been Persona'd before, try and have them match the typical traits of the arcana as closely as possible.

  • No Maragadyning things from the very beginning, please.

  • Now then... the current list of available Arcana:





    Note: Given the high number of available arcana, I'd rather we add to the list gradually, instead of unleashing an army of Persona users. While you can still make a claim, it may be a while before you can use a Persona. Of course, I'll make sure there's other things to do when not spelunking alien worlds. Plus, feel free to play a non-Persona user. That should make things... varied.

    And now, have a sign-up sheet.

  • Name: Yoshida Akemi.

  • Age: 17

  • Appearance: Calm and composed.

  • Arcana: Hierophant

  • Personality: A serious girl with little time for fooling around, Akemi believes in hard work and studying above all else. Having been raised by her parents with this mindset engraved in her mind, Akemi has gone on to become quite an unpopular student body president, who would even go as far as to berate any student she sees messing around in the school halls during break. To her, the idea of slacking off and ruining one's chance of becoming successful in life is utter lunacy.
    Due to her buzzkill nature and off-putting ideas, Akemi has made very few friends, if any, at school. Even outside of it, all she ever seems to do is study. Despite this, Akemi cares for the well-being of her fellow students, and is currently stressing over the idea that her replacement may not be up to par when she leaves.
    [*]Equipment/Skills: Academically, Akemi scores quite highly in most subjects, English being her only real weakness. She's also skilled at carving, oddly enough. As far as equipment goes, she only ever carries school supplies.

  • Background: Raised as a hard-working girl since childhood, Akemi has had very little time to socialise with others at school or outside, instead studying maniacally in order to become immensely successful in the future. One of her few ventures outside resulted in her meeting and 'befriending' an unfortunate girl, who is still with her today.
    Akemi was elected as student body president in her first year, and her no-nonsense attitude and devotion to rules and regulations has done little to make her approachable to most others. Maybe it's the stress finally getting to her, but now she's having weird dreams about blue rooms and creepy old guys...


  • Persona: Hokuto Seikun.

  • Appearance: It's totally Hokuto.

  • Abilities:
    Enemy Scan: Is able to detect the weakness of an enemy, if possible.
    Communication: Is able to send messages to one's mind. Literally one person, for the moment.

    Name: Yanagi Midori

    Age: 16

    Appearance: "With your help, I'll make sure she loves me forever..."

    Arcana: The Devil

    Personality: Midori avoids most human contact, outside of her family members and a very, very narrow group of people, including the... object of her affections. She's not very outgoing, and doesn't handle many social situations very well. It's not entirely out of shyness, more out of a lack of associating with people. Midori enjoys drawing, being an excellent artist. She is also quite sweet, but... there is a darker side to her personality... Midori is deeply in love with another girl, Yoshida Akemi. However, her love is twisted. Midori has come to worry about Akemi constantly. Even if she seems calm, some part of her is worrying. She wants Akemi to love her back, desperately, and seeks any methods she can to do so. She hates seeing other people talking to Akemi. If they show romantic interest towards the girl, it's likely Akemi would become homicidal and extremely violent. Her desperation is driven by a fear that Akemi somehow will not notice, or be taken by another. In addition, she's desperate to protect Akemi as well. Any possible harm that may come to the object of her affections must be destroyed, regardless of what it is. Midori believes that, when she fights to protect Akemi, her love protects her from harm. She is extremely clingy in regards to Akemi, as well. She has little regard for human life, unless Akemi worries for it as well. And even then, if they attempt to harm Akemi or show romantic interest in her... The exception to this is children, as Midori does not want to hurt children and gets along very well with them.

    Equipment/Skills: Midori has a boxcutter and basic knowledge of how to use it as a weapon. She is also an excellent artist and has a pixiv account, where she goes by "ArtistMichan". It's mostly filled with fanart and occasional original work.

    Background: When Midori was younger, she lost her older sister, Keiko. Keiko died in a car accident. Midori was deeply attached to Keiko, and the accident hurt her extremely deeply. Combined with prexisting mental issues, this has at least partially lead to Midori's attitudes towards those she loves. Midori fell in love with Akemi shortly after meeting her for the first time, when the girl came to comfort her after the death of her sister. Midori's love grew, swelling further and further and growing more and more obsessive. She even draws the other girl rather frequently, though this art is not uploaded to her pixiv.

    Persona: Scarlet Babylon

    Appearance: The one with the massive drill arm thing.

    Abilities: Agi and Mudo

    Name: Sutoraiki Kaminari

    Age: 18

    Appearence:
    Living up to the family name?

    Ignore the most of the police crap on him. He only has a normal blue shirt, with a black undershirt, a neck tie, and pants. This is usually what he is wearing when he isn't wearing a school uniform.

    Arcana: Emperor

    Personality: A calm and collected individual who is more known for his family's rep. He decided to try to follow what he thought he loved to do the most - Detective Work. He is an avid fan of Murder Mystery novels, and often wants to jabber about them as much as possible. Thankfully he keeps that swelling feeling inside of him, and remains serious, even when talking with others.

    Although he is a calm and collected indivual, he can often sometimes become... Rather panicky when pressured. This is made worse when his father expects him to live up to his family's name, and its now causing him to rethink his options. Despite his nervousness, he has a rather big heart, and is willing to talk it out with almost anyone.

    Equipment/Skills: He has basic police training thanks to his dad, and is one of the more athletic students in the school. He also has had some Kendo training.

    Equipment - Stun Baton.

    Background: Kami was born to a long line of detectives, officers, you name it, and was expected to live up to his family's name. Although he finds this to be a lot of pressure, he enjoyed solving the crimes in the books his father bought, gradually growing his interest in the "family business." He went through his whole life, preparing for the moment he would become and investigator. He made a few friends, but he sometimes contacts them to see how they're doing. The boy has recently began helping his father with one of his newest cases though.

    He was recently beckoned by his father to help him out with his newest case - the teenagers and some random cult. He thought it would be easy, he thought it would eventually blow over... But after actually doing some investigating, he is feeling the pressure on his back pushing him down. He doesn't want to disgrace his family name, but the case isn't going anywhere.

    The panic of this case could be getting to him, as he is begining to have strange dreams each night. He wonders what it could all mean with the blue room, the weird old dude, and that hot chick he saw every night in his dreams.

    He has also recently turned 18 (in the roleplay).

    Persona: Zeus

    Appearance:
    Should of made his Persona look like He-Man for the lolz :P

    Abilities:

    Zio: Deal a small amount of electricity damage to an enemy.

    Arm Chopper: Deal a small amount of physical damage to an enemy, with a chance of causing fear.

    Yes, I decided to edit my app because of pressure. Sue me.

    Also, we now have a yandere amongst us... That's just peachy.

    Also thought I would point out you put Lovers on the Arcana list twice. IX should be Hermit.

    • Name: Mogami Sachiko

    • Age: 16

    • Appearance: All you need to do is smile!

    • Arcana: Moon

    • Personality: Sachiko is an exceedingly cheerful and energetic person. It’s next to impossible to meet her on a day where she isn’t smiling broadly. She even tends to skip on her way to a destination, when the mood takes her. She’s never one to shy away from engaging others in conversation, even those that are initially a little hostile. Even when met with overt aggression, she tends to take it in her stride and either attempt to diffuse the situation or simply make a calm exit.

    Sachiko has no difficulty in making friends. More than a few people are easily drawn in by her radiant personality, and quickly consider her their pal. However, to this date, there isn’t a single person that can claim to have really gone beyond a fairly basic level of friendship with Sachiko.

    • Equipment/Skills: Sachiko is a talented dancer, especially of the ballet variety. She is quite flexible and agile, capable of preforming feats of acrobatics with ease.

    • Background: Up until the age of 10, there was little of note to be said about Sachiko’s life. At that age, however, she ran afoul of a group of bullies at her school which harassed her for the bulk of the year. Though she complained, the school authorities were less than interested in sorting out a “harmless” case of school hijinks. It was around this time that her mother told her to just be happy, and not let the bad things in life get to her. After this, she adopted this mentality as her personal philosophy. She garnered quite the reputation amongst her social circles for her positive demeanour, and carried on like this throughout her high school life.

    • Persona: Dionysus

    • Appearance: I’ll just go with the canon appearance if that’s okay.

    • Abilities:
    Zio: As if it needs to be explained.
    Mind Charge: Amplifies the strength of the next attack.

    Also Fool kind of always has the wild card going by canon rules. But that's none of my business.

    Oh, yeah, I see XD But Sachiko is my character's first name, since I figured we were going with the Japanese "Last name, First name" motif. I sure wasn't thinking of Corpse Party when I named the character, but I understand the reference.

    Or protagonist. I'm currently in another Persona RP, and I might end up getting the Fool Arcana in that. I was debating on whether using my previous app and upgrading it, or making a completely new character.

    Also Cuco, your characters weapon of choice should totally be scissors now that I pointed it out :P jk

    I guess since I'm not too familiar with the Japanese motif for last name first and first name last... Expect me to be a bit of an idiot on this xD

    Hopefully someone makes a male character, otherwise its going to be a roleplay with a 23 year old guy who is surrounded by a bunch of school girls... That would get awkward real quickly xD
