happy halloween! have y’all seen scara’s drip? D A M N. it’s kinda scary how it’s also the anniversary of bohemian rhapsody as well as when the 1.1 trailer came out, when we first met him. interesting...

enough of that, how have y’all been? so persona 5 royal was released on the 21st and i’ve been playing it ever since. as someone who majored in psych as an undergrad and studying counseling psych for grad school, the information about personas and shadows are accurate and literally, i’ve haven’t been this happy. also, the storyline and the characters are AMAZING (i'm in my akechi kisser era lol love that pancake loser to death and i’m an ann kinnie love her). i’m looking forward to play strikers afterwards and both p3 and p4 when they get released 1/19/23.

some of the genshin impact vas are in that game -- ann’s, ryuji’s, and mishima’s specifically -- and that gave me an idea of a persona au. each nation released so far will get their own hcs!

persona has a feature called social links where you hang out with characters you’ve met throughout the game and they’ll give power-ups for your journey. i’ll be assigning a character to a role in the team for each nation, what persona they would have based on constellations, and what arcana they would have for their social links with the reader based on their personalities and ideals. i hope that makes sense?

teams:

mondstadt - amber, kaeya, jean, lisa, diluc, venti, mona, albedo, eula

liyue - ningguang, keqing, tartaglia (childe), zhongli, ganyu, xiao, hu tao, yanfei, shenhe, yelan 

inazuma - kazuha, ayaka, yoimiya, ei, yae, sara, kokomi, thoma, gorou

sumeru - tighnari, collei, cyno, candace, nilou, nahida, al-haitham, kaveh, dehya, scaramouche (wanderer)

notes:

each team has 9-10 members each. p3 to p5 the range was 8-10.

team composition was based on the characters who participated in the main storyline and/or were considered important during the interludes. in some cases, some were important to the event storyline (e.g., mona and albedo) and some were just thrown in there (e.g., hu tao and kaveh).

childe is in the liyue team as he was released during that chapter i.

scaramouche is in the sumeru team instead of inazuma as he was released during chapter iii and received his vision in the nation (check drip marketing).

it felt like a crime not including itto into the inazuma team because his eng va max mittelman voiced ryuji so i was thinking of including social links with npcs (as in playable characters of genshin who aren’t in the team but can benefit from forming relationships with you) as well.
