Welcome to Persona :: New Arcana! A Persona RPG site!
Welcome to New Arcana!
Welcome, Welcome! You've probably guessed by now, but this is a text-based Persona RPG site for Atlus fans, by Atlus fans. If you're new to Shin Megami Tensei, this place can still be for you, so no need to dash towards the doors! Your first stop should be the introduction board so we can introduce ourselves. Then right after that, feel free to go through our vital information to get a good feel of the site. We hope you enjoy your stay, and if you have any questions don't hesitate to post them here. Ciao!
Shin Megami Tensei and Persona belong to ATLUS. We own nothing, and have simply used their data to create a world of our own. They are the true geniuses behind the scenes.
—Strength Name: Glorious Melee Combat —Description: There's nothing more manly than two warriors shanking each other with a piece of metal, at least that's what Albrecht thinks. This love for melee combat makes the Forgotten even more effective at it granting a 10% Dex damage with melee soulbounds.
—Strength Name: Langschwert —Description: As one of the Black Lions, Albrecht received intense military training and his weapon of choice was the long sword. He know effectively how to use one and various techniques, such as half-swording and sundering. This strength allows Albrecht to perform two dexterity attacks in combat.
—Weakness Name:Melee Fighter —Description: Despite having accesses to ranged weapons, it is far from being his field of expertise, his focus on melee combat required that he sacrificed some ranged combat training. Gun attacks deal 10% more damage.
—Weakness Name: Not GLORIOUS MELEE COMBAT —Description: Gun fights are alright, if you are into that sort of thing. Certainly not nearly as good as GLORIOUS MELEE COMBAT. Albrecht deals 10% less damage with Gun.
Susan had been correct, there was an obstruction. A deliberate one. This began to mark the first time their opponents had shown any combat intelligence, this one was attempting to halt their progress. Officer Frost may have had nothing to fear but Susan very well did. She was well aware of what this meant. The ones that could think for themselves were more dangerous as she had seen, and this one was not only in control of its actions but also laying traps for them. It could possibly equate to a larger scale of power within the terrorist. As her counterpart readied himself for battle Susan kept a wide berth and raised her P90 to her shoulder.
[img][/img]
"D... d-do not move or resist, you are un... u-under arrest...!"
Her warning came out as a weak reflexive squeak as her hands trembled. But she couldn't wait for this one. The clown was actively showing threat and aggression, he was obviously not a hostage of the mist, and she was justified in striking first. But she wouldn't dare. Susan was frightened of what the terrorist was capable of, and it would be best to learn what that was before making any rash actions. Susan instead cradled her weapon close to here, preparing to put it before an attack. "O-Our enemy is i-intelligent, b-be careful...!" she warned as best she could. If what she feared to be true was so then this terrorist could not be taken lightly. Any misstep in their strategy would spell doom for the team.
Priestess Arcana: +5% to Tactical Support skills. Rearguard: Support skills (tactical skills, healing, buffs and debuffs) receive a 5% boost in terms of potency (if they refer to percents in how they work.) and your SP and Luck will be raised by 40%. However, in the Rearguard your attack stats will be lowered by 50%.
Strength: Professional Courtesy - Charm and Rage have their success rates lowered by 15% against Susan. Strength: I'm the One in Control! - Once per withdrawal from Persona Overdose Susan can choose the target of a skill she uses instead of rolling randomly. She makes this choice after rolling for her target. The skill is still rolled randomly like normal.
Weakness: Not According to Plan - Panic and Fear have an extra 15% chance to succeed against Susan. Weakness: Rip Off the Bandage - When Susan is suffering the negative effects after Persona Overdose she loses 10% of her total HP every turn. This damage can and will knock her unconscious if she isn't careful but it can't result in her death since her Persona won't willingly kill its host.
Action:
Guarding. Recovering 10% SP.

Soul Skill Name: Dispatched in Mankind's Darkest Hour Persona Name: Svalinn Tier: Tier 1 Cost: Passive Type of Damage: N/A Description: If an ally's health drops below 25%, the effectiveness of Cecilia's healing and buff skills will increase by 10%. This boost will last for the next four turns and will be taken into account when she heals/buffs any member of the party (including herself). It does not stack on top of itself and can only be acquired once per battle.
Invigorate 1 | Recovers 3 SP on each user turn | Passive | Tier 1
—Strength Name: To Protect and Serve —Description: Though Cecilia may not be able to harm and damage her enemies, she can utilize her soulbound in other ways. If she guards her soulbound shield will increase her PEnd and MEnd by 20% for the turn.
—Strength Name: Prideful —Description: Cecilia's arrogance can get grating, but at the same time it can come off as a reassuring display of confidence. Upon entering the start of a dungeon, she has a 50% chance of increasing the courage of an ally of her choosing by one level for the duration of a single topic. If the dungeon is exited or Cecilia leaves the party then this level boost will disappear from the individual.
—Weakness Name: Pacifistic —Description: Cecilia cannot and will not bring herself to harm a living being. The violence she witnessed during the Eternal Divide fucked with her developing mind to the point where the mere thought of hurting a living entity on any level or scale sickens her. As a result, she can never attack someone directly regardless of the circumstances. Her soulbound cannot be used to inflict damage, she doesn't get to carry a side-arm with her, her Persona can't use attack skills, she can't slap/punch/stab someone, etc. It doesn't matter if she's about to die or even if it means the downfall of the government -- she simply cannot bring herself to stain her hands with the blood of another. And while she does accept it as a necessary evil and will allow the rest of her party to kill, she will always advocate for a more peaceful route if her opinion is asked for -- especially when it's humans she's dealing with.
—Weakness Name: Prejudiced —Description: Cecilia will refuse to negotiate with Demons unless no one else in her party is willing and/or able to.
—Weakness Name: Sweet Tooth —Description: Cecilia has a love of sweets and will take her sweet time (no pun intended) enjoying the flavor. HP recovering items restore 5% less HP than they usually would.

It was then that Susan realized she had already made a tactical error. The enemy was smart. Not only that, they were being observed throughout this whole process. Mirrors were at every turn. It would be foolish to not consider the enemy exploiting their weaknesses. As such, this terrorist sought to erode the foundation of their combat formation and cut off their means of enduring the long fights. He targeted Cecilia. The timid woman would not be outdone on the topic of battle strategy, he was not the only one that could exploit a vital flaw in a plan. She watched in anxiousness as the clown first made Cecilia more vulnerable by weakening her mental state, then sought to attack her directly. But Susan was not weakened. She could endure. The woman rushed forward to shoulder-check Cecilia out of the way of the mental assault, grimacing under the waves of mental agony that rocked her brain. "Nnnnnrrrgh...! S... Sh-sha...! Shesha...!?" With the madness overwhelming Susan she found herself in the middle of a momentary stroke, but her Persona would come to her aid on its own to protect its host.
The spectre rose up from the mist and found the words above her Pharoah: agony, turbulence, and migraine. It lashed out and struck the words from Susan's fate, allowing her to recover her frame of mind. The businesswoman pinched the bridge of her nose and shook her head. "Nnnnnrrgh... Ce... Cecilia has been weakened, we need to protect her...!"

This time the mental energy did not affect Susan, possibly from the residual effect of Seshat but everyone else was sent reeling with headaches and the crawling sense of insanity. She, the most nervous and insecure one with anxiety issues, the one who couldn't control her Persona, her own Ego, was actually more mentally resilient than they were! Susan lost her mind, pointing and laughing at her comrades while holding her side. "Mmmhmmhmmhmmhahaha! Se...Seshaaaaahahahaaaaa...!" The timid woman giggled like a maniac as she struggled to summon her Persona and save at least one of them from dying of laughter. Pfffffft, dying of laughter!
