[S/D] Persona: The Reoccurring Nightmare

[Soulcorruptor]

Okay first off let me say sorry for the late put up of this thread. Just had so many things happening and it kept getting delayed sadly. Second off a list of the arcanas and the persona's associated with them are found here http://www.finalfantasyforums.net/th...eck-Persona-RP, please refer to page 2. Also as for skills please look at the persona 4 skill table found in there, a link to the table will be moved here shortly for easier navigation. Probably the most important thing to know and remember will be this, You get to choose only ONE arcana and while you get all the personas under that arcana you DON'T get them right away. This means in the beginning of the RP you will be limited to changing between the first two. Same basis is used for skills, while letting everyone pull from the huge skill set since it was easier then having so many skills repeat in a premade skill table for each arcana, you can only use the beginning low level skills in the beginning. Again as the RP moves on you will get to use higher skills later. One of the last notes when choosing your Arcana please note that Fool, Judgement, and The World are off limits this may be subject to change. Other then that please have fun and enjoy, so without further delay I present to you Persona: The Reoccurring Nightmare. For a bio format please use the following template. Also keep in mind to make your chars unique as all chars from the previous games are off limits, who knows some might even make a surprise appearance.

Appearance:


It's been five years since the events of the mysterious murders in Inaba. It all ended when some detective confessed to the murders out of the blue, no one know why he confessed or still yet how he committed the murders. Meanwhile it's been seven years since the events on Port Island and it's strange happenings. People were winding up in a type of near comatose state with no explanation at all, as with Inaba these events came to s strange and sudden end. Were these two events connected? Was the same person behind them, or was a different person responsible for each event? Now a new set of events are happening yet again in Port Island that seems to have similarities to both cities previous events. Once a week each month a unusual mist rolls in and covers the man made city, and at the same time during this week at midnight people have started to claim to see phantom buildings. They seem to appear only at midnight and either they appear where no buildings are or seem to later a building it has occupied. This coupled with some people disappearing now had led some to believe what ever happened seven years ago is starting up again, yet this time whoever or whatever was responsible is striking back harder then ever.

[Soulcorruptor]

Name: Lex Tlesse

Age:22

Gender:Male

Weapon: Twin Katars

Arcana: Hierophant

Personality: Lex is a little bit of a complicated fellow, especially for those that do not know him well. On first appearances he is a very quiet and introverted fellow. He keeps his thoughts to himself a lot of times and has a hard time expressing what he is thinking, this comes more true if he would be in a group of people and his ideas would differ then the majority of the group. His attitude changes however when among those he counts as friends. He becomes a little more outgoing being able to enjoy himself and able to have a bit more of a good time. He also doesn't mind sharing his thoughts or opinions.

Appearnce: Lex considers himself to be a bit on the small side despite being male. He stands at five feet and four inches. Also Lex feels very dis proportioned, as he feels his legs and arms are bigger then they should be compared to his rather small frame. To top it off his build his a little below average while not overly fat, he has no clear tone for muscles and has a small bit of belly fat which he tend to be over conscious about.

[Tipsynaruto]

nahh. jks. Hope this is ok

Name
Amira Karluka Haktanir

Age
23

Gender
Female

Place of Birth
Kabul, Afghanistan

Arcana
Empress

Appearance

For her profession and the surrounding she works in, Amira is surprisingly not shaped like a soldier. She is fit and slender, appearing more like a business woman (which she is). Due to her parents, Amira's skin tone is mostly white, although her mother's Afghan skin colour is lightly visible, making her not absolutely pale. Her face is proportioned rather well, with a pointed nose and rather large eyes. Amira's face shape isn't extremely sharp and her eyebrows aren't angled deeply. Her lips naturally curve upwards in a permanent slight smile which is perfect for her line of work. One would say she is rather fetching and beautiful, like a flower and exudes a friendly and helpful aura by default. Her hair is white and very long, reaching past her buttocks at the back and her sides reaches down past her chest in a middle split, revealing her entire face.

Attire
Amira's base outfit consist of three main piece of clothing with gloves and hoisery. Her shirt is a long sleeved burgundy blouse which are fluffed at the forearm with wide cuffs and gold buttons. On her neck under the collar, Amira has a ribbon tied around in a bow up front looped through behind an intricate golden brooch (check appearance image above for size). Her skirt is white and rather modest, reaching 3/4 down her thighs. Her leg is covered with dark navy tights, whilst she wears knee high white boots on top of them. It is interesting to note that the zipper is on the front, though coloured to appear less like zippers. At times, she may wear a pair of white cotton gloves.

On the side, Amira can also wear a white trench coat that has white fur lining on the end of the sleeves and on the collar. In addition, on her head, Amira can also wear a white fur cap. Lastly, Amira sometimes don a pair of sun glasses that have specially treated lense for combat flashes and protection. On each of her ring finger and her right middle finger, she has a ring. This one on the left, and this on the right and this one on her ring finger. All of them are made of platinum.

Personality
Amira's is always polite and friendly. Business is in her blood and she acts accordingly in all aspects of her life, exceedingly polite and formal. As someone who is absolutely neutral, she treats people, attitude wise, mostly the same. How she actually shows her moral grounds and personal preference is via how much leniency and leeway she is willing to give when doing business. She is willing to make less of a profit and put more effort into offering a better deal, even making them priority clients over others, to those she likes and vice versa for those she doesn't. That said, this is personal preference of people, rather than on people's moral grounds. Just because someone is doing good things does not mean that Amira would like them. There are grounds in which she refuses to cross, that is drugs. Any attempt to pay via drugs or even offering her drugs would result in, usually, violent response. If she is in a good mood, she may give them a chance to revoke their offer, but their impression is forever tarnished in her eyes.

In normal situations and socialisation, Amira is still formal and polite in her speech and mannerism. She is pleasant and friendly, though not chummy and "i'll befriend every single person". Despite this, because she never seems to show anger nor happiness, people do not know what she is actually thinking. This makes it hard for people to gauge her. She is calculating and very meticulous as her job requires. One does not survive and thrive in the arms business by winging it. Usually, Amira smiles with rather friendly eyes. However, when she does get serious and her "angry", she still smiles, but her eye narrows in a rather sadistic and scary way and her smile feels more scary and intimidating. It is a look that not many see twice and it screams warning signals in people's head that they are toeing a dangerous line.

However, when her neutrality and safety becomes threatened, she will bring fire down upon those that are the cause. She would compromise and assist people if it meant that she deal with those that has wronged her. The way she think about it is that she is selling her service at a great discount in which the return is personal satisfaction. In these situation, her companions well being is her well being and she will go out of her way to help them. Her normal business nature is gone and she has chosen a side. To her, her companions are family and she would go through hell and high water, albeit with style and grace, for them.

Weapon
Amira is proficient with weaponry across the board since she deals with them. However, she specialises most in short edged weaponry, but predominately daggers.

2 x Sword Bayonet
A pair of 45cm sword bayonets with 35 cm blades are hidden quite nicely in a retention system on the sheath since she wears it upside down behind her waist. The majority of the knife is above her waist, with only a bit of the hilt sticking out above her skirt. Even then, most of it is hidden beneath the flaps of her shirt. The retention system meant that the blade hangs there securely until Amira pulls it out.

Primary Element:
Ice

Secondary Element:
Healing/ White (Ironically)

Job/ Occupation
Amira is a broker. Not just any arms dealer from the streets. She deals in high end weaponry, from single order to bulk. She can provide from single item weapons and guns to stinger missiles, jets, tanks and military grade equipments and even tailored weaponry, which she has done so in the warring regions all around the world. In addition to arms, Amira also spans into information, safe houses, mercenary contracts etc. The range of what she brokers and deals with is beyond just these. With the backing of an anonymous mega corporation and her own massive span of connections, she is able to make and complete deals of all kind, from legal ones to illegal ones.

History
Amira was born from an Afghan woman and a Russian man. Her mother was an Afghan beauty from a well off family, while her father, Mikhail, was the corporation's top broker at that time. Upon a chance meeting, her mother fell in love with Mikhail and slept with him while he was in the district. After spending 2 weeks in Kabul, he left, saying that he may come back to Afghanistan later. This later was three years, in which Samira conceived Amira. Due to her having the baby out of wedlock, she was chased outside the family and had to live in a villiage farther off outside the city limits. When Mikhail returned to Afghanistan, Samira had already given birth to Amira. When word got to her that he had returned, she went to see him about their daughter. While Mikhail wasn't a total douchebag, he was conflicted with this dilemma. He had liked Samira, but not quite to the point of being tied down. Telling her to wait in the village for a few days so he can think and get his business done, he went about contemplating on a solution. As fate cruelly would have it, the village was razed in which Samira was killed in the conflict. Mikhail only managed to arrive with his entourage to catch Samira's dying breath. With the two year old Amira beside Samira, Mikhail took the small girl in. While he had not built a strong attachment to the girl, he still took responsibility as a father. Mikhail was never a family man. Instead of warmth and love, he educated and trained her in his path. He genuinely believed that he was giving her a gift of power and tools for life. It wasn't such a big loss for Amira as she was also not particularly attached to her father. Instead, she loved her mother dearly, hence her last name. Rather, she took advantage of it and absorbed every little bit of information about this line of work. Rather than a father daughter relationship, it reflected more of a a mentor pupil atmosphsere. By the time she was capable of rational thoughts, Amira had already deduced the relationship between her father and mother and was thankful enough that he took on the responsibility of actually raising her, rather than be coldblooded (which she knew he was capable of) and leaving her to fend for herself in Afghanistan.

From birth till her 14th birthday, she was taught the workings of being a broker and finally, on her 14th birthday, she was given reign to do a minor deal "unsupervised", but under guard care. Richard, who originally worked with her father transferred to her team and filled in a semi quasi fatherly figure. Under his eyes, she began to gain more experience as a business woman and as a broker. As she matured out at 17, she had hired a few more guards as she has a reputation of her own now. It would be a further two years before she assumed her father's position as the corporation's best broker. Her father, on the other hand, rose to executive position and was theoretically, her superior. It did not affect her overly too much as she continued to do as she wanted. Over the next six years, she increased her team, from just Richard, Fei and Yuri to having Aya, Freja, Marcella, Nicholas and Gad join them. This entourage became a necessity as she dealt with large scale goods as well as classified information and a large range of activities. Her contact network is one of the most extensive of the underworld and as one of the world's most successful broker, her security was a major issue, hence the increase in members.

Amira decided to take a break from her recent trips through the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. Taking a well deserved rest, she flew back to Port Island (?). In Port Island, Amira was relatively safe. Safe enough that with her own ability, she would be fine even if she was attacked. Even taking into consideraion of the hubub about phantom buildings, mysterious fog and reports of missing people, Amira was not worried. As a result, she had sent her guards off on errands across the country while a few stayed to guard the house. She continued to do business in luxury at home until Mikhail sent an order for her to go off to another warzone or whereever.

Tipsynaruto okay yours looks all good except for one minor little thing. Don't mean to really nit pick but could you please slim down your weapons to only one choice please instead of the three types, other then that I say yours is good to go.

Soulcorruptor

Fair enough. Figured they all fell under dagger but thats fine

 

[Soulcorruptor]

At everyone involved, I don't know if it was cause of the holidays or what. But seeing as I have not seen at least two of you around as much anymore I do not know if it will be a good idea to carry this along with how I have it in mind. So for now this is going on a bit of a hiatus, not closing down for good. Gonna rethink how to do some things with limited signups. Most apologies go to Tipsynaruto seeing as you had the first and still only completed bio.
