Current Events
Updated: 20/07/2020

**ALERT!** After a rather eventful evening at Maksim's Party, three teenagers seems to have gone missing. The doors of Vault Olympia have been breached due to a to this day unknown assailant, who sabotaged the doors locking systems, allowing demons to make entry. Thanks to the excellent defensive capabilities of the Vault's Security drones, the Attack was put to an end, and the invading monsters fled to the outside. Right now, the Doors of Vault Olympia are currently open, allowing any survivors of the fall to seek shelter within the Vault's safe halls. What Vault Security officials think of this development remains unclear as the Chief of Police and Security of Olympia refused to leave a comment. This is Rianara, of Olympia news, signing out.

The site is entering a new era as our team of mods works tirelessly on updating old and obsolete information threads and links. Over the Summer, we aim to make many changes to the forum, including writing a comprehensive beginners' guide to help new players accommodate to the combat and other rp systems in place here.

Be sure to constantly check the update thread for any changes to the boards. You can find it ->Here<-

The Hanged Man



Persona Name: Attis

Persona Appearance:

Hanged Man - Tower Attis

Persona Background: Attis originated in the kingdom of Phrygia and eventually became a part of Greek lore. Attis was conceived when his mother Nana ate a fruit from a tree that grew on the site where Agdistis, Cybele's son from Zeus, had its male sexual organs castrated and buried.

Attis grew up to be a handsome man who attracted Cybele's attention, but when he ran away rejecting her love, Cybele chased after him. Attis arrived at the site of a pine tree, castrated himself and died. The pine tree protected his spirit, while Zeus and Cybele worked to keep his body from rotting. In celebration of his rebirth, Attis' followers would do the same and castrate themselves.

Strengths: Fire

Weaknesses: Hama

Skill List:

Skill 1: Megidola | Inflicts a huge amount of Almighty damage on all enemies. | 32 SP | Tier 3 (Social Link rank 7 or higher)

Skill 2: Recarmdra | Recovers all HP but reduces user's HP to 1. All allies. | 01 SP | Tier 3 (Social Link rank 5 or higher)

Skill 3: Null Light | Null Hama based skills. [Resists in PvP]| Passive | Tier 4 (Social Link rank 10)

Skill 4: Samarecarm | Revives one fallen ally with full HP. | 40 SP | Tier 3 (Social link rank 7 or higher)


The Death



Persona Name: Alice

Persona Appearance:

Hanged Man - Tower Alice_%2B(3)

Persona Background: Alice is said to be based on Lewis Carroll's (Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson) character from his famous story Alice In Wonderland. Since Disney adopted it, her full name has been said to be Alice Pleasance Liddell or Alice Kingsleigh. The Shin Megami Tensei Alice shares many physical similarities with the character, most notably the blue dress and the blond hair. Also, her signature move "Die For Me!" seems to draw inspiration from the book, as it features spear-wielding cards. Furthermore, her Shin Megami Tensei: IMAGINE attack, "Mad Tea Party", takes further inspiration from the book as it references the chapter in which the protagonist met the Mad Hatter and March Hare.

However, some say that she is also based on a myth of an Aryan girl who died at a young age. When Alice died and became a spirit, she gained extreme magical power that drove her insane. Alice was used to scare Scandinavian children into behaving, or else Alice would visit them at night and kill them so that she may become "friends" with them. Due to the overwhelming support of both theories, it is easy to assume both are valid and that she is a hybrid of both figures. That both are valid seems to be the case though, since the Strange Journey Compendium hints at both.

Strengths: Dark

Weaknesses: Hama, Ailments

Skill List:

Skill 1:Die for Me! | 80% chance of instant death from the power of Darkness to all enemies. | 35 SP | Tier 3 (Social Link rank 7 or higher)

Skill 2: Mudo Boost | Increases success rate of Dark magic by 25% | Passive | Tier 2 (Social Link rank 3 or higher)

Skill 3: Repel Dark | Repel Mudo based skills. [Resists in PvP]| Passive | Tier 4 (Social Link rank 10)

Skill 4: Marakunda | Lowers all enemies' Defense by 30% for 3 turns. | 12 SP | Tier 3 (Social link rank 6 or higher)

Skill 5: Spirit Drain | Drains 30 SP from one enemy. | 3 SP | Tier 2 (Social link rank 4 or higher)

The Devil



Persona Name: Beezlebub

Persona Appearance:

Hanged Man - Tower Beelzebub

Persona Background: The Lord of the Flies, Beelzebub was originally a Philistine deity and was later explained to be one of the seven princes of Hell in Christian sources. He is also considered to be synonymous with Satan. In Judaism, he was a mockery of the religions surrounding them that worshipped Baal, and in Rabbinical texts the name ba'al zebul was a mockery of the religion of Baal. Some scholars believe the name ba'al zebul ("Lord of the Flies") was a way of referring to Baal as a pile of dung and his followers as flies.

Strengths: Resists Ailments

Weaknesses: Strike

Skill List:

Skill 1: Lord of the Flies | Does heavy mudo damage to all enemies, latching a swarm of flies on them that has a 30% chance of poisoning. | 40 SP | Tier 3 (Social Link rank 7 or higher)

Skill 2: Fatal End | Inflicts a moderate amount of Slash damage to one enemy. | 14% HP | Tier 2 (Social Link rank 2 or higher)

Skill 3: Elec Amp | Increases Electricity damage output 50% | Passive | Tier 3 (Social Link rank 6)

Skill 4: Maziodyne | Inflicts a large amount of Electrical damage to all enemies. | 32 SP | Tier 3 (Social link rank 7 or higher)

Skill 5: High Counter | 20% chance of repelling Physical attacks | Passive | Tier 3 (Social link rank 4 or higher)


The Tower



Persona Name: Shiva

Persona Appearance:

Hanged Man - Tower P3Shiva

Persona Background: In the Hindu religion, Shiva the Destroyer is one of the three principle deities of the Trimurti (Hindu Triad) along with Brahma the Creator and Vishnu the Preserver. He originally evolved from the early Vedic god, Rudra, and is now the supreme deity within Shaivism, a branch of Hinduism that focuses on the worship of Shiva. While he is known as the destroyer, he is also considered to be a benevolent and beneficial force, as without destruction, new creation couldn't take place. He also acts against premature destruction, going far enough to withstand great suffering. He is depicted with up to four arms, a third eye, a blue throat, matted hair, carrying a trident and a drum, is often accompanied by a serpent and rides on the back of the sacred bull Nandi.

The first of Shiva's best known attributes is his third eye, which he once used to burn the god of love, Kamadeva, to ashes. The effulgence from this act was so hot not even the god of fire Agni could handle it and it was used to create the war god Kartikeya. Shiva also has a blue throat that was caused when he swallowed the most deadly poison in the world, Halahala, the poison of the primordial snake Vasuki, earning him the name Vishakantha (one who held poison in his throat). This act is further proof of his benevolent and self-sacrificing nature.

He is the husband of the goddess Parvati, or Shakti, in all her incarnations and has two sons, Ganesha and Skanda. He also has many incarnations that would go on to become sacred figures in their own right such as Shankara and Hanuman. Shiva is also worshiped in forms born from the fusion of himself and other gods, such as Harihara when fused with Vishnu or Ardhanarishvara when he's fused Parvati or Shakti.

Followers of a religion called Shaktism believe the Shiva is an aspect or reflection of the Divine Mother, or Shakti.

Another name for Shiva is Mahakala, who, in Buddism, is a fierce protector deity who is equivalent to Shiva.

Strengths: Resists Ailments

Weaknesses: Strike

Skill List:

Skill 1: Megidolaon | Inflicts a severe amount of Almighty damage on all enemies. | 60 SP | Tier 4 (Social Link level 9 or Higher)

Skill 2: Spell Master | Halves the SP cost for all magic skills. | Passive | Tier 4 (Social Link rank 10)

Skill 3: Auto-Maraku | Begin the battle with Marakukaja cast on all allies. Takes precedence over Auto-Rakukaja. | Passive | Tier 3 (Social Link rank 6 or higher)

Skill 4: Pralaya | Inflicts a massive amount of Pierce damage to all enemies with a 10% chance of inflicting the Fear ailment. | 25% HP | Tier 4 (Social link rank 8 or higher)

Skill 5: Endure | Survive being knocked Unconscious once per battle with 1 HP remaining. | Passive | Tier 3 (Social link rank 4 or higher)
