Playtesting Sign-up Thread

For those of you who have awakenend, and have access to the velvet room, you can now accept Attendant Emma's Requests here!

These are the first six requests available, one of which is for an awakening. So, Hope you all have fun! ^^

You who are not aligned with Philemon in PSR, this is for you. Atrox's Bounty Board

PWC's and Velvet Attendants have Emma's Fusion Request Board Here.

And for everyone, here's the Rescue Request Board

If you want to take on any of these, sign your character's name in the "Accepted" Portion. Once finished with a certain request, you write down your name in the "Completed" portion. Just like in Persona 3, you can only have 3 requests active at any given time.

Now, for all of you who might seem a bit confused as to how these awakenings work, all classes (with a few exceptions), awaken after they have established at least 1 Social Link. The only exceptions to this are of course the Wild Card Classes and the Seeker class, who both have their awakening in their first Session. I'm now going to go into detail as to what these awakenings in general are for each class. Of course you can ask for a custom one if you want, but these are the general ones.

Persona Users have three awakenings. The first one, the initial awakening, is started after you have established your first social link. You will then be kidnapped to Gehenna, facing your shadow self ala Persona 4. The moment you establish that first link, the game master puts up a Request on Emma's Request Board for people to sign up and help you out. Depending on how late it is in the story, slight alreations in the Shadow Self's strength and your initial strength may apply, just so everyone is... kind of on the same page. Awakening to Prime is a bit tougher, as you need to have gone through sufficient character development for you to Awaken to your Prime. And Ultimate is reached once you have reached Level 99 with your prime. Simple right?

Anti-Shadow Suppression Weapons Awaken in 1 of 2 ways. Either through a Shadow Self encounter, or through a meeting with Nyarlathotep, depending on your alignment. You have 2 Awakenings. Papilion Initial, and Papilion Prime. Getting to Prime requires you to have defeated at least 10 Dungeon Bosses. In doing so, you will awaken to your prime, and upgrade your Orgia Mode.

Corrupted awaken through getting infected with a virus from Superbia, the first Corrupted. Your second Awakening happen once you have completed all "Spread the Virus" Quests on Atrox's Bounty Board. When evolving your Corrupted Initial into a Corrupted Prime, your Dark Frenzy will change into Bloodlust.

Rogues start out awakened, however their "Awakening" does not truly happen until their first encounter with Shadows in Gehenna. Rogues Second Awakening, getting their Advanced Persona, happens after you've gathered at least 40 Shadow Artifacts. When awakening for the second time, Overdose evolves into Overload.

Nyarlathotep Children Awaken through meeting Atrox or the Player NWC after establishing their first Social Link. Awakening to your Mutated Persona requires you to have defeated 10 other players in PvP. Mutating changes your Mark of Chaos to Seed of Nyarlathotep.

Velvet Room Attendants Awaken through meeting Sanctus or the Player PWC after leaving the velvet and establishing their first link. Attendants get 2 Awakenings... Velvet Prime, and Velvet Ultimate. The Prime Awakening requires you to be Level 50. And the Ultimate is a Fusion.

Persona User Wild Cards awaken by signing the contract and meeting Igor in the velvet room in their first session. Their Prime is given through fusion, as well as their ultimate. However, the ultimate requires you to Max 1 Social Link of each arcana, like in the games. The PWC Ultimate is generally the strongest Persona type, clocking in on Tier 4.

Nyarlathotep Wild Cards Awaken by meeting Atrox and recieving the Shadow Vessel from Nyarlathotep in their first Session. Prime and Ultimate are Achieved through Fusion, however the ultimate has another condition, like the PWC has. You need to have Spread the Influence to at least 15 People (NPCs and Players alike) before gaining access to the Dodecagon Spread. NWC Ultimate is also a Tier 4, but slightly weaker than the PWC Ultimate.

Seekers Awaken in their first Session by meeting someone awakened, and finding their Soul Husk within themselves. Ascending to the next tier requires you to choose one of the ten gods (Attondel, Antra, Patrulea, Seitsemas, Onuncu, Éna, Harmades, Tierra, Sizyema and Aotra), and complete the chosen god's trials.
