Persona Rebirth/Characters: Difference between revisions

As you may expect, there are [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]. Try not to drown in them.

----

 

== Year 1 Students ==

Tsukasa is violent. Like really, really violent. Fighting is her favorite pastime, and she will get mad at anyone that doesn't agree with her point of view, which tends to change from time to time. There aren't that many people that can bare her because of this. Due to the fact that she cares almost nothing of others' opinions, Tsukasa often finds herself in rather awkward situations that confuse everyone around her except herself. For example, it made perfect sense to her to grope Kaede to determine her gender. Everyone else didn't think so.

 

She's the daughter of a famous Kendoka and as such has taken the sport up herself. Amongst the few girls in the Kendo club, Tsukasa is one of the strongest, and frequently makes it a point through her words and in combat. Her Persona had been encouraging her to fight more and more, leading the already violent girl into more fighting situations than ever before. After her accidental murder of two thugs, Tsukasa decides to start fighting to defeat bad guys, and resolves into Ashling the Pilgrim.

 

* [[Attack! Attack! Attack!]]

* [[Wooden Katanas Are Even Better]]

 

Miyuki didn't really have a fantastic childhood. She was left alone with her mom and brother after her father died in a car crash, and had a really close relationship with her brother, ([[Brother-Sister Incest|hahahahahahaha]][[Dude, Not Funny|no.)]] who then disappeared. Since then, Miyuki has been attempting to regain that close relationship with someone else, but hasn't found anyone yet. She operated as a normal high school student for a while, a girl that seemed a bit too nice to hang out with the ditzy crowds she usually hung out with.

 

* [[Siege Engines]]: Her persona's "attack animation" is it firing the catapults and ballistae planted on its walls.

 

 

Manabu is the one and only member of the Occult Club at Taiyoutono, a club dedicated to seeking out strange, mystical things in everyday life. However, he's also well known as a stalker and all around creepy guy, often following girls home from school and watching their every movements. Though lately he's tried justifying it by saying he follows them in case the Butterfly tries to abduct them, he can't deny that he has feelings toward Miyuki, who he stalked for a brief time before they were both whisked off by the Butterfly. Underneath his creepy exterior, one finds impressive self-esteem issues, many brought on by both the abuse in his life and how he was treated when he was younger. Because of this, he has come to hate himself and everything he does. His Persona is [[H.P. Lovecraft|Cyeggha]] of the Moon Arcana.

* [[Troubled Fetal Position]]: Does this at one point after Cyeggha starts talking to him.

 

 

Michi is your average (for Nagashima) insane child. She talks to her three dolls, a teddy bear, a bunny rabbit, and a Shisa doll, and thinks that they talk to her. The Shisa doll is the only doll that "talks" to her; it is actually her Persona speaking to her, rather than the doll actually doing the talking. She's not mentally unstable, but she's mentally damamged enough to be unable to recognize the difference between reality and her own little world. She's extremely nice, but frequently freaks other students out.

* [[Pyromaniac]]: She likes fire. A lot. To the point of having a homemade flamethrower.

 

The [[Shrinking Violet|socially awkward]] nephew of Shin Imoto, and a former friend of Toru Watanabe. Naoya has difficulty communicating, and tends to feel out of place. At least part of this is due to his recent stay in a hospital, which lasted almost a year. While he wants to help people, and his persona, Krishna of the Judgment Arcanum, wants him to act more heroically, he's having difficulty.

 

* [[Realistic Diction Is Unrealistic]]: Taken past realistic and into incomprehensible circuitousness sometimes.

* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: The Blue to Charlie's Red, the Red to Shin's Blue.

* [[Speech Impediment]]: As a result of the brain damage he suffered in his past.

* [[Those Two Guys]]: With Charlie

* [[The Wise Prince]]

 

A young man who loves a fight, and cooking a good meal even more, he transferred from Canada after his mother got a job as a foreign idol, after living a strange childhood full of fights, traveling, and fluency in 6 languages. A former delinquent, he tries to change his ways, but trouble always seems to find a way to follow him. [[Journey to the West|His persona, Sun Wukong, is a monkey who ran around beating up and stealing from as many people as he could, until he had been imprisoned and sent to work as a heavenly stable worker, until he was recruited to escort a monk to India.]] He may be one of the more normal characters, at least, if a little quirky...

 

* [[Groin Attack]]: Toru's counter after Charles powerbombed him.

* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: His character profile even states that he played too much [[Ryu ga Gotoku|Yakuza]] and [[Dead Rising]].

* [[Knife Nut]]: Even if he has one of his combo weapons, or whatever else, he never leaves home without a balisong.

* [[Le Parkour]]: Charles' first appearance; he vaults over another boy, spins around in the air, and punches him right in the face. Not to mention that he tends to make entrances by jumping off of nearby rooftops.

* [[Wrestler in All of Us]]: In one of his earlier threads, he vertical suplexed Toru into a fountain, followed by a powerbomb, after Toru had attempted to put him into a guard. Later after that, he missile dropkicks a dog off of Eiji.

 

* [[Mismatched Eyes]]

* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: A lesbian tsundere with a great body. She once got turned to a [[Catgirl]], which had pink hair and a sailor suit. There have been various other occurrences, and more to come.

 

{{quote|{{spoiler|"I am a monster, Hikaru! A filthy, hateful creature! I want nothing but your death, our sister's death, our father's and our mother's! The whole would will be torn apart by these hands!"}}}}

 

She decided that she would use this power and the shadows to [[Nietzsche Wannabe|destroy the world]], and set out to manipulate others into helping her do so. She has so far managed to only be able to fully manipulate one person, Isoroku, but has since been feeling rather guilty about some of the stuff she did to the other girl...

 

 

 

Things were getting better, with Kouji's help. She went to go live with him for a while, though still Exodus said he did not like how things were turning out. Though other then one 'nightmare' where he attacked her, nothing happened. Kyomu decided that she was going to apologise to Isoroku, with Kouji there. The meeting together went well, and Kyomu was happy to find that Isoroku truly didn't hate her. {{spoiler|And then Exodus took over, and attempted to kill both Kouji and Isoroku. Kouji was forced to initiate command Alpha Beta, and Kyomu's cyborg limbs fell off. She then went monster form, and attacked everyone in the park. Kouji and Isoroku both went Monster, causing chaos. Kyomu started killing everyone in the park, ignoring Isoroku and Kouji, till other persona users came and stopped her. Aleksandria then came in a helicopter and took her away.}}

 

 

* [[Character Development]]: Definetely showing the starting signs of it, starting to think of Isoroku to be more of a friend then a tool at least. {{spoiler|And then she Descended.}}

* [[Determinator]]: Strangely for someone like her, she shows this trait at times. She even says she believes strength to be "... The will to push on forwards, always standing by the view that you think is right.". It just so happens that right to her is that the world is pointless, and should be destroyed for it.

* [[Large Ham]]: What do you expect, with [[Final Fantasy V|Exdea-]] I MEAN EXODUS as her Persona?. {{spoiler|And then [[I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream|AM]].}}

* [[Nietzsche Wannabe]]: Her main goal is destroy the world, as life is pointless.

* [[Ice Queen]]->[[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: She is one, or at least wants to become one. Despite how much she wants to rid of them, emotions exist inside her. She sees them as her flaws. Acts less icy to Kouji and Isoroku, who seem to be the only people she cares about. {{spoiler|Now she is no [[Ice Queen]], but she wants to kill everyone close to her. Including Kouji and Isoroku.}}

* [[Tsundere]]: Unwittingly acts like this to Kouji, until she realized she was being one to him and asked him to be her boyfriend.

* [[Opposites Attract]]: Her and Kouji.

 

A sixteen-year old boy in his first year of high school who had a very happy childhood and grew up more or less on fairy tales. His most defining characteristic is that he loves everyone. [[Love Freak|Everyone]].

 

* [[Wide-Eyed Idealist]]: Truly believes love will solve everything and that everyone is really a good person on the inside.

 

[[Yamato Nadeshiko|Gentle, polite and calm]], Kinzaki is an epitome of ideal Japanese lady despite being half-French. It's a pity that she [[Hates Being Touched|doesn't like being touched by men]].

 

 

== Year 2 Students ==

 

Leader of the "good guy" group, Kaede Susaki is a sailor-mouthed, asocial artist who is best known for causing problems among the student populace and being an all around [[Jerkass]]. One thing most of the student populace doesn't know is that Kaede is actually a girl, due to her boyish appearance and general unpleasant attitude. Her Persona is [[Norse Mythology|Skuld]] of the Fortune Arcana, and she uses knives as weapons.

* [[Bifauxnen]]

* [[Bokukko]]

* [[Expy]]: of [[Persona 4|Naoto]] in appearance only.

* [[Knife Nut]]: Uses a [[Improbable Weapon User|knife hidden in a fan]] as a weapon. Isn't very good with it.

* [[Nice Hat]]: Her beret. Sora even prefers to call her Beret instead of her actual name.

* [[Refusal of the Call]]: Like Kaji, Kaede didn't really plan on returning to the ruins. It was only when she realized Sora was going to abuse his powers that she decided to make her own faction of Persona users.

* {{spoiler|[[Seer]]}}

 

Kaji is the local teenage vigilante. Those are in every fictional Japanese town, right? He's cool and collected, but has an undeniable thirst to punish criminals and an odd hero complex. The only person to, so far, find out about his vigilante antics is Kaede Susaki, and she's not telling anyone, so [[Blatant Lies|it's possible it'll remain a secret forever.]] His persona is [[Alexander the Great|Bucephalus]] of the Tower arcana.

 

* [[Cool Train]]: His persona is a ''dinosaur train that shoots lightning.''

* [[Expy]]: [[Kamen Rider Kiva|Kaji would like you to return that life to god.]]

* [[Form-Fitting Wardrobe]]: "Kaji Okawa runs around in spandex and beats up people."

* [[Impossibly Cool Weapon]]: It's a bat that transforms into a staff that transforms into a spear thing. Goddamn.

* [[Vigilante Man]]

 

One of the school's resident playboys, Satosu Hasha is a suave, charming young man who happens to have the attention of damn near every girl in the school. Including those who already have boyfriends. ''And some of the guys.'' His charming face is just a facade, however: he enjoys stringing people around as though they were his playthings, never really intending to get into a relationship with them. He constantly teases girls, while never actually getting into a relationship. That would just hurt their feelings when they realized he was just screwing with them all along. And that could hurt his reputation. His persona is [[Greek Mythology|Narcissus]] of the Judgement Arcana.

 

* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: Sure, he resists all four base elements, but he's crippling weak to both of the instant death spells AND physical spells!

 

Ryouta is rather infamously known as the unluckiest boy at Taiyoutono high. His track record of unlucky escapades range from simply tripping over his shoelaces, to ''making anvils fall from the sky when there was no clear high point nearby for them to be dropped off of.''

 

* [[Yank the Dog's Chain]]

 

 

Ryoichi is one of the more normal students at the school, despite being a member of the infamous "Ryotrio". He's ridiculously forgetful, but manages to ace tests due to his ridiculous luck. When he was younger, his cousin Yuzuki lived with him, and they were both friends with Ayane. His Persona is Ebisu of the Sun Arcana, which manifests itself as a leech-bodied fisherman.

* {{spoiler|[[Trauma-Induced Amnesia]]}}

 

 

There is little justification that he gives for his actions other than the standard [[Crapsack World|"The world is a terrible place"]], and that he's just playing his part. A look into his history reveals he's from a very long line of criminals, traceable back to the feudal era. His parents, being a part of this bloodline, were less than stellar role models. Due to the events of his childhood and the genetic code he carries, Sora believes that he literally has no other choice than to be evil. It's been implied that that may not be entirely true.

He's one of the wild cards on the forum, and as such, has more than one Persona. He has a strange Egyptian like reptile named Nu, and what is essentially a European sex fairy named Gancanagh. He also has Amatsu-Mikaboshi, a persona with powerful almighty skills, {{spoiler|and resolved into Lucifer.}}

 

 

* [[An Axe to Grind]]: An Axe is his weapon of choice. The weapon in question just so happens to be the same axe his uncle murdered a bunch of people with.

* [[Jerk with a Heart of Jerk]]: It's either that or he's secretly a [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|nice guy.]] This issue hasn't been resolved yet.

 

 

Most of Kumori's classmates don't realize that he exists, and they do, then they probably only remember him by face or by rumours. After all, it's rather hard to get to know someone who sleeps through nearly all of his classes. Though completely unmotivated, he is [[Teen Genius|at the top of his class]] on account of his sheer intelligence alone. Behind his facade, he is a kind and considerate individual and overall one of the more normal students, almost to an [[Extreme Doormat|unnatural degree]]. His Persona is the mythological [[Classical Mythology|hero]] [[Deadpan Snarker|Achilles]], who he gets along fairly well with. He tends to explore the ruins on his own, not choosing to take a [[Neutral Neutral|side]] in the Sora versus Kaede conflict due to his [[Non-Action Guy|unwillingness]] to get into direct conflict with his fellow classmates. In fact, when he does bump into people in the ruins, he tends to help them as best he can regardless of faction.

* [[The Stoic]]: Kumori is generally able to keep his cool throughout the strange things that happen at his school. It also helps that he is half-asleep for most of his time at school, leading to some [[Genius Ditz|quirky]] behaviour at times.

 

Haruka Rin would seem to be the example of the perfect student. Her grades are excellent, her parents are both wealthy lawyers, she takes care of her appearance, and she often excels in the activities she participates in. The problem? Haruka is a schizophrenic. As a result the girl has little sense of identity left, only grasping onto fragments of her old self. It's unclear whether or not her voices reflect what she is personally feeling, or if they are independent of her real thoughts.

 

* [[The Schizophrenia Conspiracy]]: Mostly averted. The Role Player is doing her best to portray Haruka as a realistic Schizophrenic. Of course, not being a doctor or expert on the disease, some slips are bound to be made.

 

* [[Third Person Person]]

* [[Wholesome Crossdresser]]: He has long hair, wears very pretty dresses, and acts and looks generally very girly... but also happens to be quite male. Not that you would know unless you happened to catch the odd [[Panty Shot]].

 

 

* [[Ax Crazy]]

* [[Would Hurt a Child]]

 

A half-Japanese, half-British boy with eccentric habits, Yuuto was raised by his parents in a rather unconventional manner, encouraging him to just [[Be Yourself|be himself]]. This ended up making him a social pariah when he entered school, giving him a desire for friendship and approval even as he became an introvert. When Yuuto's father was offered a higher-paying job at Roketto University in Nagashima, his family moved there and enrolled him in Taiyoutono High, where he became the only male member of Taiyoutono's Cooking Club. His Persona is Eros, of the Lovers Arcana.

 

* [[Combat Medic]]: Eros has both healing spells and damaging spells in his arsenal.

* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]: To the degree that he's inflicted [[Stupid Sexy Flanders]] syndrome upon four people at once.

* [[Glass Cannon]]: Eros has good attack skills, magic and debuffs, nullifies [[Making a Splash|Water]] and resists [[Blow You Away|Wind]]. However, he is weak to three elements at once, including [[Casting a Shadow|Darkness]].

* [[I Just Want to Have Friends]]: But his fear of rejection makes it hard for him.

* [[Thinking Out Loud]]: Common for him.

 

The only introduced member of Taiyoutono's school newspaper, Rio has a penchant for drug use, zero tact, and more money than she should.

 

* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Loves her grapefruit. Never seen without them.

 

Just a simple country boy. Eiji lived an uneventful life with his extended family out in the country, but eventually grew weary of it, wanting to experience the excitement that is going to school in the city. [[Be Careful What You Wish For|Naturally, the closest city was Nagashima.]]

 

* [[Country Mouse]]: Actually sort of a touchy subject for him.

* [[Knife Nut]]

* [[The Rival]]: With Kaburagi Joe, almost to [[Sitcom Arch Nemesis]] levels.

 

Toma is a relatively normal 17 year old who lives with his mother after she and his father broke up. When he was younger Toma was violent boy who often got into trouble because of it, but later became less so when his teacher taught him to calm himself via [[Oral Fixation Fixation|the chewing of toothpicks]]. He vowed not to fight another person again to his teacher when he left for High School, a vow he has kept so far. He still, however, can be easily angered by most things, an anger which he sometimes struggles to contain.

 

* [[Berserk Button]]: People suggesting that Personae can [[Exclusively Evil|be good]] or Personae taking over people.

 

* [[Badass Bookworm]]: There's not much a guy with one arm can do, but his books have never failed him in the past.

* [[Brutal Honesty]]: Even if it comes out wrong, Matro will never hide the truth.

 

One of the local delinquents at Taiyoutono, Itsuki is rude, loudmouthed and loves to fight. However, beneath the asshole exterior lies a man with a troubled past and a heap of issues. His persona is [[Norse Mythology|Garm]], of the Chariot Arcana.

 

* [[Invisible to Gaydar]]

 

An exchange student of questionable history, Harkens is not known to be a paragon of either normality or morality. Enjoys keeping himself busy with various random hobbies and weirding out his peers. His persona is Gaius Caligula of the Justice Arcana.

 

* [[The Sociopath]]: While not bloodthirsty, he is fairly amoral and has some problem understanding right and wrong.

 

 

* [[Genki Girl]]

 

 

* [[Blow You Away]]

* [[The Woobie]]: Her life sucks.

 

* [[Blow You Away]]: Most of his persona's skills are wind based.

* [[Friendless Background]]

* [[Perky Goth]]: Dresses like one just because he likes the look.

* [[Standard Status Effects]]: Has charm and confusion spells.

 

 

Nana is an infamous former [[Japanese Delinquent|sukeban]], and student of Taiyoutono. Once one of the most feared delinquents in the school, she went straight after her father was killed in a car accident. After receiving her Persona, she starts acting the mentor to Ryuunosuke and helps him both rescue Hotaru and gain a new confidence in himself.

 

== Year 3 Students ==

Probably one of the least insane characters in the city. Beyond a strange preference for wearing boxers, she's got very normal hobbies and reasons for having those hobbies. The strangeness around her HAS played its part in her development as a person, and she's a bit of a coward, but she is definitely one of the more stable personalities and friendly when not going through a rough patch.

 

* [[Throw the Dog a Bone]]: Her life was getting pretty crappy when Chouko started stalking her, but even with all that she was able to start a steady relationship with Ryouta. The fact he has a girlfriend who is willing to go through all his bad luck to be with him means this can apply to him too.

 

The town's local cowboy, as if Nagashima wasn't odd enough. Has a habit of calling people nicknames they don't want, has a ton of guns, and is fucking his cousin.

 

* [[Embarrassing First Name]]: Akiko is actually ''male'', despite his girly name. However, he doesn't seem to mind being called by it.

 

The current President of Taiyoutono High's Student Council.

 

* [[Student Council President]]

 

A wallflower by habit, Sotare is an intelligent, sarcastic student who would sooner have everyone run from him like the plague then carry an hour-long conversation.

 

* [[The Quiet One]]

 

{{quote|{{spoiler|"I... I don't want anyone else to die because of me. I killed mommy... And daddy... I don't want to kill you too, Kira. You're like my sister... I love you. So p-please... run..."}}}}

 

* [[Ax Crazy]]

* [[BFS]]

* [[Big Eater]]: Not Kyousuke himself, but his persona is shown eating a ''whole pineapple.''

* [[Blood Knight]]

* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]: Well he has white hair, but is he pretty? Uh....

 

 

 

When Chouko was younger, she had a haughtier personality, which led to her and her sister being attacked over some comments she made. Though her attackers hadn't meant to hurt them as badly as they did, the end result of the fight led to Chouko's sister dying, and Chouko having to go through therapy in order to regain use of her legs. A few years later, she entered a relationship with a boy from school. A few months after they'd been dating, the boyfriend was stabbed to death in front of Chouko's eyes in a mugging. This caused her to undergo a complete psychotic break, causing her to gain her new obsessive personality.

* [[Stepford Smiler]]: Hides her mental issues under a stutter and a smile.

* [[Trauma Conga Line]]: Sister and her get beaten nearly to death, escape, get hit by a car, Chouko goes into therapy, sister becomes a vegetable and later dies, Chouko recovers, Chouko dates boy, boy gets mugged to death...

 

Katsurou is the school's [[Mad Scientist]]. He may not act like a mad scientist, but he certainly has no problem blowing the crap out of the school's science lab...[[Education Through Pyrotechnics|repeatedly]]. As such with the intelligence that he carries in his brain, Katsurou finds everyone around him to be a band of idiots that are beneath him and are not worth his time. The arrogance that he graces with everyone he meets, stems from his 'I'm better than you' attitude that has gotten him into many situations that involved violence. That violence spurred him into learning martial arts, though only recently he's begun to use it against threats other than the monsters that tries to kill him underneath the city.

 

* [[Walking Wasteland]]: His Persona ability allows him to ''rot'' anything he touches with his black aura fists.

 

A young man who strives to be the best at whatever he sets his mind to, Kuzuki transferred to Taiyoutono a year after his father's death. Two years later, he's part of the kendo team and is vice-president of the Student Council. There's a reason why he's an overachiever: it's all a way of earning his father's love and approval by trying to live up to the expectations he thinks his father had for him. His Persona is Grani, of the Emperor Arcana.

 

* [[Disappeared Dad]]: His father, a policeman, died while trying to arrest a [[Serial Killer]].

* [[Don't You Dare Pity Me!]]: Played as a destructive character trait, as Kuzuki's [[Pride]] drives him to refuse help even when he needs it the most. For example, against a powerful Shadow, he refuses to let the more durable members of his party take the hit, even though those party members completely nullify that Shadow's element. Maria calls him out on this [[Armor-Piercing Slap|physically]].

* [[Heroes Prefer Swords]]: Since he knows Kendo, it's justified.

* [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]]: To Yuzuki, although she isn't so much incompetent as really easy-going.

* [[Light'Em Up]]: Grani's second elemental specialty.

* [[Norse Mythology]]: His Persona is Grani, scion of Odin's horse Sleipnir and steed of Siegfried the hero.

* [[Ordinary High School Student]]: One of the few in Taiyoutono before he, too, got sucked into the Ruins.

* [[Our Centaurs Are Different]]: Grani is a [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot|armored robotic centaur spirit]].

* [["Well Done, Son" Guy]]: Deconstructed in that Kuzuki's relentless drive to please his father is his most obvious motivation for becoming [[The Ace]]: the only problem with this is that his father is dead.

 

 

* [[Abusive Parents|Abusive Dad]]: In her backstory, played straight at first only to get denied later on.

* [[Engrish]]: Inverted. Oliver can speak English just fine. Her Japanese, on the other hand takes constant forays into [[Intentional Engrish for Funny]], [[Department of Redundancy Department]] and even [[My Hovercraft Is Full of Eels]] territory.

** Amusingly inverted '''again''' once where a case of [[Angrish]] causes Oliver to declare that she will "[[Final Fantasy|KNOCK]] [[Memetic Mutation|THEM]] [[Never Say "Die"|ALL]] [[Good Bad Translation|DOWN!]]" in English despite being eloquent in it.

* [[Everyone Can See It]]: Oliver started crushing on [[Not So Different|Yuuto]] almost immediately. Both other RPers and characters picked up on it just as quickly.

* [[Frying Pan of Doom]]: Her weapon of choice.

** [[Kung Fu Wizard]]: If fighting normal human beings rather than shadows or fellow persona users. It's entirely possible that this aspect will actually overtake the Squishy Wizard one with time.

* [[Supreme Chef]]: Everything she's made ([[Laser-Guided Karma|and tried to keep wholly to herself]]) has been ''very'' promptly devoured. Ironically shares this title with fellow androgynite Yuuto Hayashi, [[Blatant Lies|who she totally doesn't have a crush on]].

* [[Underestimating Badassery]]: You're not really taken all that seriously when you're a teeny tiny girly-looking boy that can't even speak the language that you're using to make threats of violence.

* [[Unlimited Wardrobe]]: Has had a different outfit on in every single thread she's appeared in. She's even been described in her profile as always changing her style and hair on a whim.

* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?]]: Reacts to a souffle imploding as if somebody just ate her pet bunny alive in front of her and then [[There Will Be Brawl|ran around wearing its head like a hat]].

{{quote|"IT WAS YOU! [[Department of Redundancy Department|YOU MURDERED MY SOUFFLÉ WITH THAT BRASS INSTRUMENT OF SOUFFLÉ MURDERING!]]"}}

* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: Has purportedly dyed her hair many different colours on a whim. Thus far she's been seen with blue, green and blonde hair.

 

Oliver's high class cousin. She had the misfortune of defending her father's less than savoury practices at an earlier age, with her final retort against a protestor reaching [[Memetic Mutation|a viral state]]. The whole affair eventually led to her [[Sugar and Ice Girl|closing herself off from the world]], reserving her [[Adorkable|true nature]] for close friends, family, and the ever wonderful Internet. Her persona is Spartacus.

 

* [[Anything That Moves]]: A lot of the narration and inner monologues about Maria hint that she has some... [[Shotacon|interesting]] [[Sweet on Polly Oliver|tastes]].

* [[Bi the Way]]

* [[Genre Savvy]]: To an extent. She's familiar enough with RPG tropes that, when she's suddenly dumped into the ruins and awakens to her persona, she adapts rather quickly for a sheltered Ojou. Not to mention, she picks up on the possibility of having [[Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors|elemental weaknesses]] immediately. Of course...

** [[Wrong Genre Savvy]]: She runs the very real risk of delving into this instead.

* [[Lady of War]]

* [[Motor Mouth]]: She has the habit of letting herself ramble at times, often changing subjects multiple times before letting anyone get a word in edgewise. Presumably only an aspect of her [[Sugar and Ice Girl|Sugar]] side.

* [[Ultimate Gamer 386]]

 

Kaburagi Jounichi lived as a quiet boy who sat in the back of class for the first couple years of his life. Then, he found the music of [[Ronnie James Dio|a certain rock legend]] and his personality completely changed. His full attention became devoted to [[Heavy Metal|The Metal]] that he loved so much and the attitude that went along with it. He is a raucous, headstrong, and determined individual. He will also do anything for someone he considers a friend. He'll also [[Thinking Out Loud|monologue a lot.]] He is Joe, the self-styled greatest rocker in the world.

 

** Most prevalent when he's speaking English, the language that most of the music he listens to is written in.

 

Calm, usually quiet and polite, Kakeru is quite a functional member of society. He will gladly help those who are in need and always keeps a nice front. In reality, Kakeru is a boy who believes that he can't feel anything like sadness and happiness. He doesn't feel joy while helping others, but he doesn't feel grief while doing something bad either. The only thing that keeps him from doing bad things is his conscience and his surrogate father's last words.

 

* [[Yin-Yang Bomb]]: Can use both [[Light'Em Up|Hama]] and [[Casting a Shadow|Mudo]] spells.

 

A delinquent who was [[Used to Be a Sweet Kid|once a polite and kind child]] until he got bullied in junior high to the point where he snapped and [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge|beat the ever-lovin' crap out of three bullies at once.]] He now has a single goal in life: to be the ultimate banchou in Nagashima.

* [[Bully Hunter]]

* [[Suplex Finisher]]: His favored method.

* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]: [[Estrogen Brigade Bait|Yup.]]

 

== Rokketto University Staff and Students ==

 

* [[Blade on a Stick]]

* [[Youkai]]: Her Persona is Hannya, a jealous woman turned demon.

 

'''OBJECTION!'''

 

 

* [[Badass Longcoat]]

* [[Waxing Lyrical]]: Starts singing ''[[Phoenix Wright Musical Project|Reawakening]]'' during her [[Her Codename Was Mary Sue]] [[Imagine Spot]]. Apparently this is [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight|not uncommon]].

 

 

...Did we mention Nezumi's kinda scary?

* [[Dissonant Serenity]]: Arguably the most off-putting feature about Nezumi is her complete and utter relaxation in the face of whatever is thrown her way. The only time she's broken her demeanour is when she first saw [[Eldritch Abomination|Jubilex]].

* [[Elegant Gothic Lolita]]

* [[Expy]]: At first, she doesn't readily appear to be one. But then upon closer inspection, [[Fridge Horror|you realise]] that, if Mai is Pheonix Wright, then Nezumi is {{spoiler|[[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing|Dahlia]] [[Complete Monster|Hawthorne]]}}.

* [[Fridge Horror]]: Her [[Expy]] status could count as this.

* [[Trademark Favourite Food]]: Fried octopus flavoured potato chips. However, it seems clear that she'll grab just about anything. Even if it doesn't belong to her.

 

Karin is a student of science at Rokketto university. She is actually [[Teen Genius|a little younger]] than her classmates, owed in part to her brilliant mind and dogged determination to prove herself as better than everyone else. In fact, it's incredibly seldom that Karin ever ''stops'' telling people how much better she is than them. Her superiority complex and unhealthy obsession with proving herself is owed in no small part to the systematic neglect and abandonment of her [[Stage Mom|stage parents]], who constantly ignored her in favour of her twin sister because they figured they could make more money off of her charm than Karin's mind. Her persona is the [[Complete Monster|murderer and rapist Ixion]] of [[Classical Mythology]].

 

* [[Casting a Shadow]]: One of Ixion's elemental specialties.

* [[Gadgeteer Genius]]

* [[Insufferable Genius]]

* [[Papa Wolf]]: Try and attack one of his students. Watch how well that works out for you.

 

 

Takashi is a teacher at Taiyoutono High and one of the damn best teachers there are at the school. Which is not saying much since [[Adults Are Useless|all of them are asleep, stoned out of their brains on coffee or both.]] He is a reformed yakuza, so he tends to be grumpy and isn't necessarily the [[Sir Swearsalot|best role model out there.]] The teacher was pretty content with his life until [[Call to Adventure|shit happened.]] He gathered the adult persona users and is occasionally in correspondence with the [[Wild Mass Guessing|WMG]] [[Fan Community Nickname|squad]]. His persona is [[Classical Mythology|Hephaestus]] [[Non-Standard Character Design|the talking, flaming, seven-armed urn.]]

 

* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]

 

Conan's a [[Woobie|pitiable]] man. Nearly two metres tall and with a build to reflect that, he's quite used to being perceived as dumb muscle. His lethargy and clumsiness certainly doesn't help with that. However, he's actually very well read and nobody's fool. Conan has been drifting from job to job aimlessly for years after the death of his fiance, trying to put the pieces of his life back together. His Persona is Goliath of the Chariot arcana.

 

* [[Wooden Ships and Iron Men]]: In his backstory, Conan was a sailor for a time.

Zenshiro Murakami is one of the local Yakuza leaders that are trying to take over Nagashima's underworld. One problem though. Zenshiro has no interest in the goal and much rather surf rather than extended his clan's territory of influence. Despite being a Yakuza leader, Zenshiro has a laid back personality that really just wants to live a normal life, however it is an impossible wish as his father was assassinated, leaving Zenshiro to take control of the clan despite his disdain of the title. This usually prevents him from surfing on the beach. However that does not mean he is a push over, Zenshiro wields a [[Improbable Weapon User|gargantuan anchor spear]] that is not easy to wield with one arm. [[One-Handed Zweihander|He does though]].

 

* [[Surfer Dude]]: He would much rather surf at the beach all day rather than deal with his clan's business.

 

Descendant of the Samurai, one would think that Muramasa would hold the same values as his ancestors. He doesn't. Muramasa has absolutely no care in the world other than himself, in fact, he tries to make everyone else's life as horrible as he can allow just for laughs. The [[Evil Albino]] has [[Mismatched Eyes|two different eye colors]] one being red while the other [[Eyes of Gold|being gold]], which he keeps hidden under his eye patch. A skilled swordsman who cares not for mock battles and craves to test his blade, the only thing saving the people around him from getting craved by his blade is the law. If only there was a place that he could kill freely without the law to get in his way... does such a place exist?
