| The Arcana
The Arcana directly relate to your character's personality, and over all alignment. Below is the list of Arcana available for use so far. Each have their strengths over one another. Do try to match them up with your character's personality to the best of your ability. This will help the staff in determining how your own Shadow will correspond with you. Fool The Fool represents innocence, divine inspiration, madness, freedom, spontaneity, inexperience, chaos, and creativity. Pros: Users of this Arcana are the "Jack of all Trades", allowing them to use any skills. Users of this Arcana get a 15% boost in one skill type of any kind. Magician The Magician Arcana is commonly associated with action, initiative, self-confidence, manipulation and power (more specifically, the power to harness one's talents.) Pros: Personas excelling towards Magic, particularly towards Fire-based element. Users get a latent 15% boost in Fire-based skills, or a 15% boost to your Maximum SP. Priestess Portrayed as an old woman with a closed book, the Priestess Arcana is a symbol of hidden knowledge or other untapped power, wisdom, female mystery and magic. Pros: The Personas of the Priestess Arcana are commonly associated with healing and support attributes. Users get a latent 15% boost in healing skills or support/buff skills. Alternatively they may decide to reject both and take a 5% boost to any percentage-based tactical skills. Empress The Empress represents prosperity, creativity, sexuality, abundance, fertility and comfort (most often in helping maintain peace around them like an ideal mother would.) Pros: Personas of the Empress Arcana are often Personas excelling in Ice-based attacks with healing powers also relatively common. Users get a latent 15% boost in ice-based skills or healing skills. Emperor The Emperor symbolizes the desire to control one's surroundings, and its appearance could suggest that one is trying too hard to achieve this, possibly causing trouble for others; some elements in life are just not controllable.

Hierophant The Hierophant is a symbol of education, authority, conservatism, obedience to rules and relationship with the divine. Pros: The Personas of the Hierophant Arcana have no weaknesses, but no particular strengths as well. SP and Luck are given a latent 15% boost. Lovers The Lovers Arcana initially represented two paths life could lead to, and thus a symbol of standing at a crossroad and needing to make a decision. Today, however, it is portrayed more of a symbol of love and romantic relationships, although it can also be a symbol of finding agreement with an ordinary friend or even two conflicting elements within. Pros: The Personas of the Lovers Arcana are commonly associated with Support-Healing attributes. Users have a latent 15% boost in either healing or support/buff skills.

Hanged Man The Hanged Man Arcana is associated with self-sacrifice for the sake of enlightenment, the bindings that makes one free, paradoxes and hanging between heaven and earth.

Characters of the Temperance Arcana are often struggling to find a balance in their lives and in their hobbies. Pros: Each stat gets a 7% boost Devil Portrayed as a hermaphrodite devil over two naked and chained figures, the negative aspect of the Devil Arcana represents the urge to do selfish, impulsive, violent things and be slave to ones' own impulse and feelings.

Judgment The Judgment Arcana, in tarot, is associated with realizing one's calling, gaining a deep understanding of life, and a feeling of acceptance and absolution. In gameplay, the Judgment Arcana is commonly associated with a balance of Light and Darkness. Figures of the Judgment Arcana are usually related to Judgment Day myths, or are gods tied directly to the judgment of humankind. This is an Arcana you cannot start with or claim as your own, as it refers to your bonds with your team, and how far you're willing to seek the answers life presents you. This Arcana can however be rolled through the use of the Jester Arcana. If your dice happen to land on Judgement, three castable skills of your choice on your currently equipped Persona/Shadow Weapon/True Self will recieve a 15% boost to whatever they're doing. (Say a Fire Skill would do 15% more damage, while a healing skill would restore 15% more health and so forth.) World The World Arcana is the second most powerful arcana. It often appears as the final triumph arcana, creating miracles and aiding players who have found their resolve. Portrayed as a young woman (or hermaphrodite, depending on deck) surrounded by figures of an angel, a bull, an eagle, and a lion (representations of the four elements in transcendent form, as well as the symbols of the four Evangelists Luke, Matthew, John, and Mark respectively), The World Arcana is a representation of the world's totality, the symbol of fulfillment, wholeness, and harmony. The World Arcana is commonly associated with Social Links, where its power is based upon the players bonds with others. NOTE** You cannot choose this Arcana to start with, as it is closed. Only through plot events and maxed social links can this Arcana be unlocked. It will be directly related to your Ultimate Persona. Pros: The Personas of the World Arcana are well based in everything. Thus, they get a 15% boost across the entire board excluding the boost you already have from being a part of the first Arcana type you had chosen. You can find more information regarding the full World Boost here. - Code:

| Additional Arcana The other Arcanas on this sheet will be available to be chosen for your character Jester The Jester Arcana is the equivalent of the Fool Arcana, numbered 0. The Jester symbolizes much of what the Fool symbolizes--ignorance, spontaneity, and freedom--but in a suppressed form. In the case of the Jester, the querent is misguided and unwilling to work with others, in contrast to the Fool, who is compatible with everyone. The Jester is a prankster clown which is a variation of a Fool. Furthermore a Jester acts like a fool instead of genuinely being a fool. Pros: Those of the Jester Arcana are a spinning wheel. Where the Fool can control what their 15% boost is focused on, those of the Jester cannot. At the start of each battle, the boost they will receive will be randomnized between all of the boosts of the other Arcanas, but because of this, the boost is raised to 25%, with the only exception being Judgement, which provides a 15% boost to three individual skills instead. Hunger Hunger symbolizes the danger of losing control, of being consumed by power. The card also implies strength, but strength which comes through Dominance. It is not true power, but the pure bliss of abusing power. Pros: Those of the Lust Arcana have a 15% boost to Terra skills, or Strike Skills Aeon A common theme for characters representing the Aeon Arcana is their attempts to fully understand themselves, as well as the world around them. In both of the Aeon Arcana's appearances, the Social Link characters in question were unfamiliar with the way the real world works, and struggled to discover their own place in this unfamiliar world. Pros: Those of the Aeon Arcana deal 15% more damage with either Gun or Soulbound-Based Skills and Attacks. Magus The Magus Arcana is the equivalent of the Magician Arcana, numbered I. Contrasting to the Magician who's focused on oneself, the Magus indicates the intricate and complex web of influences that binds the Universe to itself, and to all else. They look to shift events and make the world change for themselves instead of the other way around. Pros: Mutated Skills get a 25% Boost - Code:

| Legacy Arcana: PiS Priest Priest is the equivalent of the Hierophant Arcana, numbered 5, yet, unlike the Hierophant Arcana, which is a symbol associated with the christian pope, the Priest is a symbol of a pagan priest. Pros: Personas of the Priest Arcana are generally associated with modern weaponry and pagan methodologies as a heretical symbol of defiance to established religions. Users have a latent 10% boost to instant kill effects and a 10% boost to Gun-based damage output. Hope Hope, an Arcana without a number assigned to it, isn't part of the standard tarot deck, instead being associated with a precursor to the tarot, the visconti-sforza, which were primarily playing cards. Upright, it represents hope, optimism and positivity, while reversed, it represents despair, false hope and negativity. Pros: Personas of the Hope Arcana are like guiding stars, bringing light and leading the way forward, never wavering. Users have a latent 20% resistance to all Ailments and a latent 10% boost to their Pmstr stat. Faith Faith, another Arcana without a number assigned to it, isn't part of the standard tarot deck, instead being associated with a precursor to the tarot, the visconti-sforza, which were primarily playing cards. Upright, it represents belief in others and in oneself, and in religion or science. On the other hand, reversed, it can represent blind faith misplaced in something that does not deserve trust. It can also mean false idols, or overconfidence. Pros: Personas of the Faith Arcana endure through the power of their faith, an unquenchable flame they follow.

Priest is the equivalent of the Hierophant Arcana, numbered 5, yet, unlike the Hierophant Arcana, which is a symbol associated with the christian pope, the Priest is a symbol of a pagan priest.
Pros: Personas of the Priest Arcana are generally associated with modern weaponry and pagan methodologies as a heretical symbol of defiance to established religions.

Hope, an Arcana without a number assigned to it, isn't part of the standard tarot deck, instead being associated with a precursor to the tarot, the visconti-sforza, which were primarily playing cards. Upright, it represents hope, optimism and positivity, while reversed, it represents despair, false hope and negativity.
Pros: Personas of the Hope Arcana are like guiding stars, bringing light and leading the way forward, never wavering.

Faith, another Arcana without a number assigned to it, isn't part of the standard tarot deck, instead being associated with a precursor to the tarot, the visconti-sforza, which were primarily playing cards. Upright, it represents belief in others and in oneself, and in religion or science. On the other hand, reversed, it can represent blind faith misplaced in something that does not deserve trust. It can also mean false idols, or overconfidence.
Pros: Personas of the Faith Arcana endure through the power of their faith, an unquenchable flame they follow.
