    A short distance away from the bustling streets of Tokyo is the more natural town of Okumasha, which is embedded in the mountains and forests of the area. Surrounded with grand lakes, the beauty of the woods, and famous hot springs the place became a well known vacation spot where many would come to escape the pressures of the city.

    However their visits stopped and those who are here currently are not allowed to leave. The reasons have not yet been disclosed but many rumors of government conspiracies are already circulating.

    About a week has passed since the town was cut off from the outside world and now a new rumor begins. Apparently strange creatures are now roaming about, consuming every living thing in their path.

    And the sky seems to be growing darker.

    A small group of people wandered into the forest the day after the lock down, soon finding themselves trapped by Shadows. It is then when they awakened to their power, one known as Persona. [This group has a max of three people, on a first come first serve basis. I already have one leaving two open slots. They can pick a level between one and five to be at. Everyone else will later find out about their Persona early on in the RP. This may seem unfair but it'd be super easy to catch up. All Character Stats (knowledge, understanding, etc) will start off at their first level no matter what though. These effect things like npc interaction among other things.]
    Since then the number of Shadows have been steadily increasing; it seems like it is only a matter of time before they begin to flood the town. In fact a sighting had already been reported and gossip of it fills the school, which is where we'll begin.

    Normal KHV rules apply, such as no god-modding (such as controlling other people's characters), power playing (ie knowing information your character has not had access to), killing someone without good reason, and the other basics. Should be common knowledge to most, but if you're new or unsure if something is allowed or not feel free to ask.
    Given the limited slots everyone can only make one character. If enough roles remain open and no one has joined in a while then this may change.
    Not everyone has to have a Persona. Just don't think just because they don't have one they won't be involved in the story. They will, however, be rather limited in battles. Least at the start of things.
    Everyone will have a Social Link, but I will be controlling the rankings. To explain; my character is the Justice Arcana therefore she is the Justice Social Link. Anyone who interacts with her will obtain her Social Link nearly instantly, however to rank it they must get along. If I do not rank when you think it ought to be upgraded PM me and we'll discuss. Especially contact me for your character, since no one knows them better than you would. This applies to the Social Link being reversed as well.
    To expand what's stated above there is no Wildcards. So why have social links if you can't use them to fuse Persona or increase your Persona's stats? Well simple. Ranking Social Links will earn your character prizes, mainly skills otherwise unobtainable. These will be given in Skill Cards, which can be applied to your Persona or traded for a skill that you think will better suit you.
    Character Stats (Knowledge, Courage, Expression, Understanding, and Diligence) will be increased depending on what your characters does in the rp, and via mini-games that may be applied later on. And while it will not affect your character's personality in the rp (will be boring if everyone acted the same way) it will be important for for NPC interactions, which locations they may enter, missions, and jobs. Most of these things will be introduced one by one as we go to avoid people getting overwhelmed or confused by them as well as keeping things in order.
    Besides main quests your character is free to do as he or she pleases throughout most days. And while some events are mandatory others will be optional.
    If you want a special character (someone from one of the games or a non-human character) you MUST have my permission beforehand. I will be trying my best to keep these at a minimum though, so your reasoning must be really good.
    Seeing as your character will start out knowing nothing about Personas (in most cases) neither do you. So it is possible to join without having played any of the games as there is always myself and the wiki to help you out.
    And of course have fun and remember I am always open to discuss about anything that may bother or confuse you. And it is never too late to join.

      Given Okumasha's small size it only contains one school, available for students of all ages. However the school may be one of the town's largest buildings, taking pride in its academic scores and generally well behaved student body.​
      More details to be added later.​

      A dense forest that once hummed with life. However, since the sky grew darker it is almost as if everything went into hiding. Even seeing the tiniest of bugs and birds is a rare thing now.​

    • More locations will be open soon.​

    Short Description:
    Arcana: (currently off limits ones are death, devil, judgement, and world/universe.)

    Persona's Name and Appearance:
    Other: (Any history you wish to give them, which do you wish to favor in term of stats and attack types, etc. It has to follow their arcana though. If left blank I will fill everything in with what Personas normally have per arcana. This is where you put their level as well, if you're one of the ones who went to the forest.)

    Can you change the Persona from Izanagi to something else? Either a common Persona (meaning none of the character's starting ones) or a made up one will do. Otherwise accepted the both of you. I'll make the RP thread now but it won't start just yet.
