== Year 1 Students ==
== Tsukasa Sato ==
 
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!]]
Line 25 ⟶ 22:
 
== Miyuki Fusoku ==
 
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.
 
Line 45 ⟶ 41:
== Manabu Kaerunuma ==
[[File:manabu tropes 5429.png|frame|kerokerokero]]
 
 
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.
Line 79 ⟶ 74:
== Michi Hargrave ==
[[File:michi tropes 4243.png|frame|"Pepper spray is a good medium... fairly cheap..."]]
 
 
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.
Line 87 ⟶ 81:
 
== Naoya Imoto ==
 
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.
 
Line 117 ⟶ 110:
 
== Charles "Charlie" Oliviera ==
 
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...
 
Line 128 ⟶ 120:
* [[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]].
* [[Jerkass Gods]]: His persona, Sun Wukong, was more or less a delinquent. Complete with the youthful brashness and rowdynessrowdiness, until someone in a postion of power told him to knock it the hell off. For Wukong, it was a council of gods. For Charles, it was his mother.
* [[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.
Line 137 ⟶ 129:
 
== Sakura Kureno ==
 
* [[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.
* [[Tsundere]]: Type A{{context}}<!-- The Tsundere page doesn't list a "Type A", it lists a type dere and a type tsun. What sort is Sakura? -->
* [[Tsundere]]: Type A
 
== Kyomu Monto ==
 
{{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!"}}}}
 
Line 152 ⟶ 142:
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...
 
{{spoiler|After certain events where she was (temporailrytemporarily any way) put in a wheelchair she was given [[Artificial Limbs]] by a certain Russain. She used these to try and kill Isoroku's boyfriend (Kakeru), who put her in the wheelchair, but ended up making Isoroku do it with one of her Persona's skills. When Isoroku went [[Super-Powered Evil Side|monster form]] she let her almost kill her, till Kakeru calmed the other girl down. She believes Isoroku hates her since then, and doesn't speak to her at all (though still likes to watch over her secretly)}}
 
Soon after she brought a boy named [[Love Freak|Kouji]] to the ruins, and made a bet with him over whether or not her nihilism was well placed. If Kouji could stick by his beliefs then she would admit she was wrong, but if Kouji lost them he would beg for forgiveness for his lies. [[Opposites Attract|Soon after they hooked up]], though Kyomu hasn't addmittedadmitted she was wrong yet.
 
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.}}
 
{{spoiler|During the trip in the helicopter Kyomu expressed her pure hatred for Exodus, and how she realized that she was an monster. Exodus disappeared and was replaced by AM, representing how she views herself. She now has new, better, cybernetic limbs and intends to use them and her new persona to kill everyone, deciding to start with those who were close to her...}}
 
* {{spoiler|[[Complete Monster]]: How she views herself, and acts like. She still finds herself unable to actually kill anyone when not under complete control of her persona. Though, consider the shit she's endured, she may be more [[Jerkass Woobie]].}}
* [[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.}}
* [[Creepy Monotone]]: Sometimes speaks in a monotone, but she usually isn't malicious when doing so. {{spoiler|You should be more [[Unstoppable Rage|worried]] [[:Category:Yandere|when]] she she stops... Unless you're Kouji.}} It has completely gone now {{spoiler|due to her Descension.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Cyborg]]: Of the [[Artificial Limbs]] variety, given to her by a Russian she met in the ruins for free. After losing her first set she got new, better ones. In return for this she is working with Aleksandria}}
* [[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]].}}
Line 214 ⟶ 204:
== Kaede Susaki ==
[[File:kaede tropes copy 6517.png|frame|I WILL END YOU]]
 
 
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.
Line 236 ⟶ 225:
 
== Kaji Okawa ==
 
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.
 
Line 247 ⟶ 235:
* [[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.]]
* {{spoiler|[[Fallen Hero]]:}} {{spoiler|Succumbs to his Shadow's hannibal lecturing, essentially "ascending" the wrong way and becoming a [[Knight Templar]].}}
* [[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.
Line 257 ⟶ 245:
* [[Superhero]]: Well, at least he tries to be.
* [[Vigilante Man]]
 
 
== Satosu Hasha ==
 
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.
 
Line 275 ⟶ 261:
 
== Ryouta Endo ==
 
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.''
 
Line 286 ⟶ 271:
== Ryoichi Shimizu ==
[[File:ryoichi tropes 9546.png|frame|"Oh yes, certainly-- er, what were we talking about again?"]]
 
 
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.
Line 303 ⟶ 287:
 
== Sora Mori ==
 
Sora is one of Taiyoutono's many attractive males. Unfortunately for the entire student body however, he is also a complete douche bag. Sora makes it seem like he almost goes out of his way to be a terrible person. He's been caught selling drugs before, stealing, and is most infamous for leaving a trail of broken hearts throughout the school.
 
Line 310 ⟶ 293:
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.}}
 
As of now,{{when}} {{spoiler|after a brief period of [[Jumping Off the Slippery Slope|flirting with insanity]] and succumbing to his evil side, even resolving to Lucifer, Sora's decided to try being nice for a change after some people try to talk sense into him.}}
 
* [[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.
Line 320 ⟶ 303:
== Kumori Yatsu ==
[[File:GdbZ7l 2323.jpg|frame|Kumori Yatsu in a rare moment of consciousness.]]
 
 
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.
Line 344 ⟶ 326:
 
== Haruka Rin ==
 
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.
 
Line 359 ⟶ 340:
 
== Yuuki Mikawa ==
 
* [[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]].
 
== Toru Watanabe ==
 
Seemingly a straight-laced young man who doesn't have a family, doesn't bother anyone, and participates in a variety of school activities. He also happens to be living on autopilot until he gets irritated, or notices that he has feelings of any variety—at which point, he tends to become rather violent.
 
Line 395 ⟶ 374:
 
== Yuuto "Yuu" Hayashi ==
 
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.
 
Line 420 ⟶ 398:
 
== Rio Matsushita ==
 
The only introduced member of Taiyoutono's school newspaper, Rio has a penchant for drug use, zero tact, and more money than she should.
 
Line 448 ⟶ 425:
 
== Takahata Eiji ==
 
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.]]
 
* {{spoiler|[[Bi the Way]]}}
* [[Country Mouse]]: Actually sort of a touchy subject for him.
* [[Knife Nut]]
Line 460 ⟶ 436:
 
== Tomatsu Kenta ==
 
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.
 
Line 473 ⟶ 448:
 
== Matro Ora ==
 
* [[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.
 
== Itsuki Kondo ==
 
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.
 
Line 501 ⟶ 474:
 
== S. Harkens ==
 
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.
 
Line 512 ⟶ 484:
 
== Tamago Hayase ==
 
* [[Genki Girl]]
 
 
== Isoroku Mayoi ==
 
A painfully [[Shrinking Violet|shy]] [[Meganekko|bespectacled]] girl who loves to read and has a [[Photographic Memory]]. Now in relationship with Kakeru.
 
Line 532 ⟶ 501:
* [[Shrinking Violet]]
* [[The Woobie]]: Her life sucks.
 
 
== Takashi Kurotobi ==
 
* [[Blow You Away]]: Most of his persona's skills are wind based.
* [[Friendless Background]]
Line 544 ⟶ 511:
* [[Standard Status Effects]]: Has charm and confusion spells.
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: [[Zig-Zagging Trope|Zig Zagged]], it's [[Justified Trope|Justified]], in that his "anime red" comes from hair dye, but without it he's still a natural redhead.
 
 
== Nana Samurakami ==
[[File:nana tropes 5443.png|frame|Sukeban from Osaka]]
 
 
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.
Line 568 ⟶ 533:
 
== Year 3 Students ==
=== Kira Kameko ===
 
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.
 
Line 597 ⟶ 561:
* [[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.
 
=== Akiko Hideyoshi ===
 
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.
 
=== Yuzuki Shimizu ===
 
The current President of Taiyoutono High's Student Council.
 
Line 618 ⟶ 580:
* [[Student Council President]]
 
=== Sotare Shalon ===
 
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.
 
Line 630 ⟶ 591:
* [[The Quiet One]]
 
=== Kyousuke Fuben ===
 
{{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..."}}}}
 
Line 662 ⟶ 622:
* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]: Well he has white hair, but is he pretty? Uh....
 
=== Chouko Yaguruma ===
[[File:chouko tropes 4285.png|frame|Sora-kuuuuun~]]
 
Line 685 ⟶ 645:
* [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]]: Acts crazy-possessive towards Sora to the point of {{spoiler|dismembering a woman Sora had his eyes on.}}
 
=== Katsurou Yamato ===
 
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.
 
Line 700 ⟶ 659:
* [[Walking Wasteland]]: His Persona ability allows him to ''rot'' anything he touches with his black aura fists.
 
=== Kuzuki Harada ===
 
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.
 
Line 729 ⟶ 687:
* [["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.
 
=== Oliver [[Running Gag|(Olivia?)]] Garland ===
 
An extremely effeminate [[New Transfer Student]], Oliver is unique among "his" demographic in two ways. For one, "he" identifies as [[Transsexualism|a she]]. For two, her Japanese sucks. [[Intentional Engrish for Funny|Horribly.]] She used to live in an abusive household, but has seemingly become quite well adjusted in her uncle's family. [[Sibling Rivalry|Sort of.]] Her Persona is [[Romance of the Three Kingdoms|Pang]] [[Dynasty Warriors|Tong]], the brilliant strategist who was shunned for his looks and attitude.
 
Line 771 ⟶ 728:
* [[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.
 
=== Maria Garland ===
 
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.
 
* [[Animal Wrongs Group]]: Much of her reputation and her world view comes from her family pissing off one (that appears to be an [[Expy]] of PETA, [[Scare'Em Straight|given their methods]]) off.
* [[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]]
Line 802 ⟶ 758:
* [[Ultimate Gamer 386]]
 
=== Kaburagi "Joe" Jounichi ===
 
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.
 
Line 821 ⟶ 776:
** Most prevalent when he's speaking English, the language that most of the music he listens to is written in.
 
=== Kakeru Kagami ===
 
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.
 
Line 867 ⟶ 821:
* [[Yin-Yang Bomb]]: Can use both [[Light'Em Up|Hama]] and [[Casting a Shadow|Mudo]] spells.
 
=== Shinta Watanabe ===
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]]
Line 879 ⟶ 833:
* [[Suplex Finisher]]: His favored method.
* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]: [[Estrogen Brigade Bait|Yup.]]
 
 
== Rokketto University Staff and Students ==
=== Natsuki Hayashi ===
 
The only college faculty member we've seen so far, Natsuki teaches History at Roketto University and is known for her ice-cold demeanor. She also happens to be Yuuto Hayashi's aunt—although she dislikes the young man's family because of an old grudge.
 
Line 903 ⟶ 855:
* [[Youkai]]: Her Persona is Hannya, a jealous woman turned demon.
 
=== Mai Inami ===
 
'''OBJECTION!'''
 
Line 926 ⟶ 877:
* [[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]].
 
=== Nezumi Tachibana ===
 
The second of the first two Rokketto University students in the RP. A rather quiet, stubbornly optimistic girl that's seemingly searching for a purpose in life. Tries to support herself and [[Heterosexual Life Partners|her dormmate Mai]] using her experience as a health spa assistant. Unfortunately, most of her pay goes towards [[Big Eater|potato chips]]. Contrasting Mai's penchant for men's suits, Nezumi dolls herself up into a pretty little lolita with a [[Parasol of Prettiness|pretty parasol]]. [[Fridge Horror|For some reason this scares RPers.]] Her Persona is definitely an example of how a pretty face can hide some real darn scary thoughts, even though [[Nothing Is Scarier|we're not told what they are.]] Specifically, her persona is [[Dungeons & Dragons|Jubilex]], [[Eldritch Abomination|a bloated, slimy, many-eyed, many-tentacled]] [[Big Creepy-Crawlies|spider...]] [[Buffy-Speak|thing.]]
 
Line 950 ⟶ 900:
* [[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 Suzaki ===
 
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]].
 
Line 971 ⟶ 920:
 
== Taiyoutono Teachers and Staff ==
=== Albert Raleigh ===
 
* [[Badass Teacher]]: Carries a concealed sword in his cane, and fights by mixing chemicals to create explosives and acids.
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: Though he'll object to the old, he spent a lot of his life traveling the world over and loves to share his findings.
Line 978 ⟶ 926:
* [[Karmic Trickster]]: One of his main inspirations, other than [[Doctor Who|the 7th Doctor]] (who he is an expy of in appearance only), is Bugs Bunny. It hasn't been shown yet, but pity the poor sod that first gets targeted by this side of him.
* [[Papa Wolf]]: Try and attack one of his students. Watch how well that works out for you.
* [[Rambling Old Man Monologue]]: His major flaw as a speaker is his tendency to go overboard. He will often mix up his stories when trying to speak socially (I.E. not giving a lecture), which sometimes falls under this. He finds it rather embarrassing, since he's not TOO''too'' old.
 
== Takayuki "Taka" Yasuri ==
 
=== TakashiTakayuki Kouno"Taka" Yasuri ===
 
=== Takashi Kouno ===
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.]]
 
Line 1,005 ⟶ 952:
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]
 
=== Conan Wells ===
 
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.
 
Line 1,032 ⟶ 978:
* [[Wooden Ships and Iron Men]]: In his backstory, Conan was a sailor for a time.
 
=== Soichiro Sugawara (alias Masahiro Tatsumi) ===
Soichiro—orSoichiro — or Masahiro as he calls himself—ishimself — is the teacher of philosophy at Taiyoutono. Behind his genial attitude, however, hides a wanted criminal with a taste for illegal fighting and [[Social Darwinist]] ideals.

Line 1,042 ⟶ 987:
* [[The Social Darwinist]]
* [[Took a Level in Badass]]: His backstory is basically him becoming a badass through force of will.
 
 
== Other Adults and Muggles ==
=== Shin Imoto ===
 
A detective that floats through various departments in the Nagashima Police Department, Shin had struck a fine balance in his life between his Burakumin heritage and his life as an officer of the law. Then he became a persona user, and now his life is composed of three half-lives—as a Burakumin subject to the system, as a police officer who is part of the system, and a persona user who is outside of society—and he is slowly succumbing to the stress. He dedicates much of his free time to taking care of his nephew and trying to ensure the ruins are safe, but there is a part of him that simply wants to run away, and this part has given rise to his persona, Orestes of the [[Take a Third Option|Temperance Arcanum.]]
 
Line 1,077 ⟶ 1,020:
* [[Wanton Cruelty to the Common Comma]]: When intoxicated, he does not capitalize (despite Japanese not having capitalization to begin with.)
 
=== Kyoko Harada ===
 
Younger sister of Kuzuki Harada, and one of the few completely normal characters in the RP.
 
Line 1,085 ⟶ 1,027:
* [[Sibling Yin-Yang]]: Where Kuzuki is serious and formal, Kyoko is flighty and highly social.
 
=== Midori Kitaki ===
 
* [[Cold Sniper]]: Not really, but aside from Michi everyone else thinks that she is.
 
=== Zenshiro Murakami ===
 
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]].
 
Line 1,102 ⟶ 1,042:
* [[Surfer Dude]]: He would much rather surf at the beach all day rather than deal with his clan's business.
 
=== Muramasa Mori ===
 
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?

* [[Mismatched Eyes]]: One red eye and one gold eye that he keeps hidden under his eyepatch.
