[Dead, Pre-Reboot IntCheck, Please Ignore] Persona - Academic Akrasia

[Crimmy]

Approved then, chukklehed.

[DJAtomika]

Done.

[Crimmy]

I'll wait to see who else is interested and the like before getting the IC up.

[Conflagration]

I'm interested, but probably won't have a character prepared 'till tomorrow at least. Wanted to make myself known!

@Conflagration

Glad to hear.

[Rakurai]

That sad moment when you realize everyone (except maybe Demonspade) gave their character Dia. xD

[HereComesTheSnow]

well we certainly can't have that now can we

[Suku]

@Rakuraito be fair my persona is of the priestess arcana kind of expected for it to have healing spells

[Rakurai]

Haha I'm definitely not rolling my eyes at your character Suku, if anything a Priestess Arcana without some sort of healing would feel a bit off.

I guess the others can be validated as well;
Oberon learns Mediarama in Nocturne
Castiel's some sort of angel thing
Inari could be attributed to harvest

But yeah, couldn't help but sigh since (Self)-healing is something I see almost every time a Persona RP comes up. It's almost as if no one understands the team mechanic and everyone wants to be self-sufficient xD

@Rakurai

True enough Oichi though is going to be somewhat different as rather than learn a elemental spell she focuses on dark, healing and later on almighty spells with one or two physical moves thrown in for variation. Though this is to keep up the idea of the warrior maiden that Oichi was in history.

[Zenphilvian]

You have a valid point @Rakurai. I certainly don't have a justification. I'll fix it later, once the rp starts.

[HereComesTheSnow]

Name: Tomoda “Aloha-kun” Nakamichi
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Arcana:
Equipment: One strong-looking Nine-Iron, a rosary, more eyewear than you’d ever believe necessary (mainly triangular shades), the Necronomicon and other such Grimoires, a Japanese-to-English dictionary.
Skills: Greco-Roman wrestling, whiz with a golf club, knowledge of the paranormal and supernatural, knowledge of anime and internet culture, bit of a sneakster, bit of a trickster, most casually optimistic guy ever. Girl-crazy smartass.

Appearance: Standing tall and lanky for a Japanese teenager at 5’10, Tomoda is most immediately recognizable in a crowd by his never-buttoned Hawaiian shirt, his obscenely cool triangular shades, and his wild, bleached blonde hair and chin scruff. Always wearing a cheshire, shark-toothed smile and waltzing around town with his hands in the pockets of his cargo shorts, he is the epitome of carefree in body language and demeanor, with the brown eyes hidden behind the eyepieces always either gleaming with humor or an insidious plot to do something dumb and rope his friends into it.

Personality: In case you couldn’t tell yet, he is defined by his carefree disposition and whimsical actions. Nakamichi’s both a willful idiot and a wise guy, always acting as if he’s at play even in the most dire of situations. Not to be written off as a simple bellend, however, he’s quite adept at thinking on his feet and balancing himself no matter how shaky the ground he and the gang are standing on gets. Openly friendly and good-natured, he’s the type of guy who is enjoying his youth wholeheartedly. His interests are a big part of who he is, and he’s never one to shy away from talking about them. Especially if the interest in question is girls. Hates goodbyes, always tries to find an even middle ground in confrontations.

Biography: Born into a fairly normal life, Tomoda was an only child with few real sibling figures, or for a good while, friends. As such, he was left to marinate in the things he found interesting, which happened to be fantastical stories of the arcane, paranormal, and supernatural right up until about his second year of middle school. At that point a drastic paradigm shift occurred, and the formerly nameless face in the crowd became gregarious in the extreme, eventually leading to the brazen boy we all know today. His family owns and runs the local mini golf course, and he’s going to get a part-time job there soonish. So he says, anyway, “because girls like a working man”.

Just letting peeps know that I'll have Cu Chulainn and a Tower Arcana.

Although I don't believe that Crimmy is limiting Arcana, so others are still free to make a Towers char.

[demonspade64]

That sad moment when you realize everyone (except maybe Demonspade) gave their character Dia. xD

@Rakurai

Considering the one of my opinions is Bastet who is pretty much the goddess of war, health and cats...you get the idea

[Mistress Dizzy]

I'm having trouble finding data on weaknesses/strengths of Personas... I know Garu will absorb itself, but I'd love some help figuring out the rest. I've been walking through the wiki for a while and I'm just getting more confused.

@Mistress Dizzy

Clotho blocks wind, reflects nothing, absorbs nothing, resists nothing and is weak to fire.

At least in P3.

P4 version is a bit stronger and reflects wind, while none of the other stats are affected.

My recommendation is to go with the P3 stats to start with although I'm a bit unsure what power level @Crimmy wishes to start with.

The wikis have little charts for each game and I'd recommend scrolling down to the Persona charts. Now if someone is making a custom persona based off a mythology feel free to shoot me or @Crimmy a message and we'll help brainstorm things for you. This applies for anyone needing help with coming up with Arcana or Personas in general of course.

@Mistress Dizzyyour char almost reminds me of sho minamimoto from twewy(the world ends with you)
