The Persona 6 Leaks Scared Me Into Thinking About Persona Crossroads Again, So Here's Some Tea About

The Persona 6 leaks scared me into thinking about Persona Crossroads again, so here's some tea about some characters in the AU:

It's as the title says. The leaks scared me into acting, so here's a few summaries about some of the characters are in the story! I changed quite a bit about the lore since I last talked about this au and since stuff...

ARILETTE

The protagonist of this story. Arilette is an amnesiac youth discovered by the research group stationed at Kousaten Academy, who displays an abnormal amount of Cognitive Excess found only in Persona Users. As a result, they have been placed under the care of the teacher handling Kousaten Academy's Persona Program in the meantime.

As the protagonist, Arilette is of the Fool Arcana, and the persona they awaken to is "Venti" (Yes, I changed the protags persona again, lol)

POLARIS

Arilette's senpai in both grade and seniority at Kousaten Academy's Persona Program. Polaris is a kind-hearted individual who helps Arilette settle into her new life at the school. Many people who spend time with Polaris easily find themselves at ease as they are what Takashi would call "Comfort-friend material". Polaris also seems to be close friends with the school's head cognitive researcher...

Polaris is Arilette's Star Social Link, and their persona is named "Ghost Nebula" (Not married to the name yet. Polaris was originally Ghostbur's user, but with all the drama that went down with Wilbur, I figured it'd be better if I changed it. Ghost Nebula is sort of a parallel to Ghostbur, but without being Wilbur lol)

TAKASHI MATSUMURA

Another one of Arilette's senpais in both grade and seniority at Kousaten. Takashi is a student with an unapproachable and intimidating demeanour. Most students are afraid to talk with him as he seems unwilling to spend excessive time around them, the only people he seems to tolerate is the program's teacher and Polaris. Arilette themself only met him once before becoming an official student of the program, though despite their demeanour, Arilette had the vague sense of something heavy weighing on Takashi's shoulders

Takashi is Arilette's Emperor Social Link (tho that's up for change), and his persona is named "Littlewood"

YUJIN VUONG

A youth that Arilette encounters on an assignment in Tatsumi Port Island. The nature of his existence is one that would have been a conundrum during the Martyr Makoto Yuuki's time, or perhaps not. When the group gets caught up in a fight, Yujin awakens to his persona and takes the reins as the team's navigator.

Yujin is of the Tower Arcana, and his persona is named "Antarcticite"

HOAI VUONG

The decision to bring him on the team was not one any of Kousaten Academy's Persona Program's members were happy about, but it was a necessary evil.

Hoai is Arilette's Devil Social Link, and his persona is named "Phosphophyllite"

HISAO KATAYAMA

The head researcher stationed at Kousaten in all things involved with Personas, Shadows, and the Cognitive World. Hisao is currently engaged to the teacher in charge of the Persona Program and possesses a unique sense of fashion and a joyful disposition. Although xe seems all too happy to talk about xyr research and the history of previous persona users and cognitive beings, xe also seems reluctant to divulge about xemself...

Hisao is Arilette's Magician Social Link.

CHIHIRO AKEMI

A mysterious girl who always seems to show up right when Arilette needs her the most. For someone as friendly and mindful as Chihiro, it's almost odd to see her look so dead on her feet all the time.

Chihiro is Arilette's Wheel of Fortune Social Link.

AODH FUJIHARA

A third-year from another school that Arilette works part-time with. A sass master with a big-sibling friend streak. Even though they don't realise it yet, there will come a time when they'll have to confront their past, and it all starts with the deep dark secret in their basement.

Aodh is Arilette's Moon Social Link.

AKATSUKI SHIRAHAMA

The owner of a popular cat gaming lounge. He's highly protective of his roommates, and often jokingly referred to as their mom. After a bad shadow attack hits the city, Akatsuki seems restless about something, as if he's expecting the shadows to jump out at him at any moment.

Akatsuki is one of Arilette's Hanged Man Social Links.

MAGNOLIA SAKURAI

One of Arilette's classmates and Akatsuki's roommate/charge. A polite girl with an interest in robotics and athletics. She always seems to have something on her mind...

Magnolia is one of Arilette's Hanged Man Social Links.

KICHOU SHIRAHAMA

A foreigner whom Akatsuki claims to be his younger sibling, Kichou lives in the apartment above the gaming lounge with Akatsuki, Magnolia, and their fourth roommate. Excitable and bubbly, Kichou has a knack for picking up small details others don't notice... impressively so...

Kichou is one of Arilette's Hanged Man Social Links.

HIKARI AKITA

Akatsuki, Magnolia, and Kichou's fourth and final roommate. She has a stern disposition and a love for puzzles. If Akatsuki is the mom of the roommates, then Hikari is the dad.

Hikari is one of Arilette's Hanged Man Social Links.

SYLVIE

A powerful witch said to live in the woods. Only desperate people plead with her and those who dare do so often walk away worse than they did before. Authority members have tried apprehending her, but none have managed to find her home, at least, none who weren't welcomed by her. While investigating a commission, Arilette manages to stumble and meet the witch and her servant, the former of whom doesn't seem thrilled at having her time wasted. Despite the numerous curses Arilette knows Sylvie could inflict on her, there's only one thing Sylvie requires from her: a wingwoman to help her get together with her servant.

Sylvie is one of Arilette's Lovers Social Links.

LEILANI

Sylvie's reluctant servant. An amnesiac who adorns herself in silver jewellery and who was cursed by Sylvie to forever serve her. Why Sylvie doesn't just order Leilani to date her, Arilette doesn't know. All he knows is that Sylvie is attracted to Leilani, and Leilani is weary of Sylvie. According to Sylvie, Arilette is the first human in a long time that Leilani's been overly protective of, enough to resist whatever curse Sylvie placed on her. Good grief, if Arilette's freedom didn't depend on wing manning for these two, this would be a bee's nest he wouldn't poke.

Leilani is one of Arilette's Lovers Social Links.

ASNEFIKO

The 'i' in their name is silent. Asnefiko is the eccentric owner of an antique store and a part-time novelist. When Arilette goes to see them, they often talk about stories and novel ideas, a few of which intrigue Arilette more than they'd thought. Asnefiko also seems to have a soft spot for Polaris, but Polaris doesn't seem to know them...

Asnefiko is Arilette's Aeon Social Link.

LUKE

Arilette's Velvet Room Attendant. Arilette wonders if they've met prior to her becoming a guest...

I... haven't decided on Luke's arcana yet lol XDD

Thinking about making fandom-themed tarot cards but I dunno which fandom to make which card (Pt 2)

• Persona 1

• Persona 2

• Persona 3

• Persona 4

• Persona 5

What top three tarot cards do y'all think would best fit each of these games and why (please put your answers in the comments ;w;)? I'm looking for cards that match with their story's themes, major and minor (prefered, actually) arcanas are all on the table.

I haven't played nor seen Persona 1 or 2, but for P3 I was thinking of the Three (hah) of Swords or the Four of Cups, and for P5 I was thinking of the Eight of Swords or the Seven of Wands.

If we manage to assign a fandom to each card, I'm going to draw them all out as cards and sell em >:33

So please help ;-;

(If you're cool with helping but have no idea what the meaning of each card is, I have a 'Tarot Meanings' doc y'all can look at)

Persona designs I made for Persona Crossroads some time ago

While I was cooking for my Persona Crossroads story idea, I was also working on some persona designs for the persona users in the story!

These are just drafts however, and I can't say for sure if any of these guys will stay in the final story since I'm reworking their users, but since these guys have been doing nothing but sitting around in my computer, I might as well show them off X))

This one is my design of Ghostbur from the Dream SMP if he was a Persona. I will admit, this one is probably one of my favourites alongside his user, so he's probably staying on the keep list ^-^

According to my notes, he inherits Nuclear skills, reflects Psy, absorbs Curse, resists Nuclear and Wind, and is weak to Water (yes I added Water into this), Ice, Slash (and brought back the three types of physical lol), and Pierce.

I understand that that's not how starter personas work, but...

but yeah. Instead of making Ghostbur's attributes the typical persona way, I wanted to assign them in a way that reflects actual attributes of the character Ghostbur. Inherits Nuclear because boom boom, reflects Psy because of his selective amnesia, absorbs Curse because I don't remember (probably having something to do with Alivebur?), resists Nucleur because of persona laws and Wind because... also can't remember, and is weak to Water and Ice because they melt him, and Slash and Pierce because his (and Alivebur's) deaths were from being stabbed by swords and pierced by arrows!

The design was heavily inspired by catzgam3rz's Limbo designs!

I also made a Revivebur counterpart to Ghostbur :))

For... um... reasons.

According to my notes, he inherits Nuclear and Psy (Because boom boom and child manipulator), reflect Psy (don't remember why lol), absorbs Curse (dk why lol), resists Nuclear and Wind and is weak to Slash and Pierce, so... Ghostbur, but better.

Moving on to a non-Minecraft character, I also drew Aesop Carl from Identity V as a persona (specifically his Rorschach Physician character from the White Tombstone fan game). This particular persona was designed to be a navigation persona which ngl, felt kinda tough to make. I'll admit... he's visually not the favourite child XPP

Back to turning Minecraft characters into personas, here's Scott from Empires SMP season 1! This one... is probably tied as my least favourite alongside the next one XPP The idea of it was nice, but my execution was... not as nice.

According to my notes, Scott inherits Ice and Bless (because of canonical ice powers and being the champion of the good stag god), reflects Ice, absorbs Bless, and is weak to Fire, Curse, and Slash (because stabby stab)

And I also made his brother, Xornoth! Looking at him again, I think it's safe to say that Scott loses the visual competition XPP

Him and persona Scott were meant to be opposites in both design and attributes.

Xornoth inherits Fire and Curse, reflects Fire, absorbs Curse, and is weak to Ice, Bless, Slash, and also Psy (because mans spent 99% of season 1 possessed by an evil stag god)

And also here are some gross unfinished concept art for persona Bayonetta.

Originally I was going to go with the look she has for most of the first game, but I decided to leave that for a third awakening instead and use her old look for the first awakening, but even though I had a vision I was satisfied with, I just... couldn't make it work -_-

If I were still going with Bayonetta as the protag's persona, I probably would have used Ernesto from Tactica as reference XPP

Tho I did really like the idea of her coming out of a coffin... would make a wicked awakening!

According to my notes, her attributes were that she inherits curse and pierce (because witchcraft and gun), resists Curse, Bless (thanks to dear old dad), Pierce, and Wind (because these witches have never been taught the concept of gravity), and is weak to... Water and Earth? I do not know why I chose those weaknesses for her...

the moon is a lesbian and she hates terfs
