This is the previous thread.
For people just visiting, there is a "Story Thus Far" summary in the Characters tab, 1st post.
The sleepy town of Warakuma is a town closer to the main city of Tokyo than most other towns. It faces the beginning of urbanization, while at the same time rumours of cultists plague the community. You are a resident here, new or old. Together with friends you will meet here, you will uncover the truth behind a mysterious mirror world, and ultimately save the city and the world from a grim fate. What relation do these cultists have with this mirror world? Who is behind all of this? And why do these mirror worlds expose people's darkest sides? It's up to you to join in and find out.
Persona: The True Self
For people just visiting, there is a "Story Thus Far" summary in the Characters tab, 1st post.
Prelude to a Meeting
"Welcome, to the Velvet Room"
The mind clears upon hearing these words and vision returns... You stand in a room filled to the brim with deep blues, it appeared to be a kind of entrance hall, made apparent by the lounge decor and the giant double doors at the other end. You look around, and see only yourself, and a lady with the purest of golden hair, straight, riding down her figure to her waist. She wore a sharp business suit, and in one of her arms was a thick brown book. Other than her, only shadowy figures of ever-changing form were here. She began to speak, and you immediately recognize it as the voice that awoke you,
"This place exists between dream and reality, mind and matter...", her voice was beautiful, almost entrancing. Was it the way she spoke? Perhaps.
"You are here because you possess the ability to carve an interesting future... However, alone you are limited. Do not fret however, as very soon you will be joined by others who share similar fates", she continued.
"Though, today will not be that day, my master urges you to wait patiently, until your invitation is complete... Farewell, for now... I look forward to seeing you again", and with that she bowed, and slowly your vision faded yet again.

Standard 'No God-Moding', No harrassment', 'no meta-gaming' etc. stuff applies.
One character and user per Tarot, if only to enforce diversity... If it gets late in the roleplay and no ome makes that arcana, then sure, make an app for it.
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.
Gms help forward the story and such... We also sort of know what we are doing, so mind listening to us. The gms are-
MAIN GM - Sho Minazuki

Your Acceptance: (explain how you accept your shadow. Kanji realizes that, he's scared of not just girls, but just scared in general, and attempts to be manly to make up for it. Rise comes to terms with the fact that there might not be a 'real' her among all the personalities she developed in her idol career, so she accepts all of them.)

City Center
- Ferrero Mall
A large mall that opened up a couple years ago in the midst of the town's boom. Before the mall opened, there were only small stores and the Junes department store. Ferrero Mall is owned by a company of the same name which also deals with fashion and clothing, so many of the stores here are clothing based.
- Shinza Shopping Square
The busiest part of the town's traditional shopping district, holds host to many of the town's specialities. It's lost some of it's activity, in the past couple years, but it is still visited frequently as it is closer to the suburbs.
- Warakuma Business District
A new area that is supposed to be filled with office buildings. It's currently mostly under construction, and probably will be for quite some time.
Suburbs
- Warakuma High School
A public highschool that has been open since the town's early years, so it shares it's name with the town. This is both a high school and a junior high school. There is an elementary school down the road from it.
- Warakuma Elementary

- Riverside
A small river runs through the suburban area,
Outskirts
- Warakuma Amusement Park
An amusement park that has opened in Warakuma a couple years back. It's fairly active, and people from neighbouring towns also visit.
