TEST DRIVE MEME

Unsure of who to send to Hinoto-Ri? Want to have written samples for your application or just do a little bit of testing out? This is the meme for you!

▶ Pick a prompt or start your own!
▶ Tag others!
▶ Join the game!
▶ If you need Persona help, or have a question about the game itself, there's a section below with fellow players and mods who will be happy to aid you!

▼ A city like no other...

Ahh Hinoto-Ri. City of lights, questionable Wards, the 13th Hour and Personas. A city that requires your aid in saving it, but sometimes in the strangest of ways...

▼ SCENARIO 1: Steampunk Cowboys

If you wish to influence the game in more ways than one, the 4th wall can be backdated to your heart's content. You can find the open post here

▼ SCENARIO 2: Teenbeat Magazine!

Today, you're browsing through the recently received news when you see the following message pop up on the screen:

LIKE OMG we've got the sexiest of the Visitors just for u!!! THE RESULTS ARE IN AND---

Naturally, upon scrolling down, you see a picture of yourself in nothing but your swimwear. And almost immediately, it seems there are people on the street beginning to glance in your direction...

▼ SCENARIO 3: Dolphins in the sky with diamonds

You've heard the rumors, but never seen them before.

Hinoto-Ri's fabled flying dolphins: are they friend or foe? Do you want to try riding one? Or will you just let the majestic creatures continue past undaunted? Whatever happens, be prepared for your life to be changed forever!!!

▼ SCENARIO 4: What do all these buttons do?!

They told you about Q's . Truth be told, you didn't expect him to ask you for this, but he needs a ~~guinea pig~~ no seriously guinea pig to test out his newest vehicle. It's the 13th Hour, and the night sky above is stained red. He looks at you before you start driving.

"Now do be careful. I've installed all sorts of weapons inside the old girl. If you could bring it back in one piece?"

No problem, you think, before you realize you have no idea what all these buttons do. Now what?

...Wait.

...Do you even have a driving license......?

▼ SCENARIO 5: A Night in Hinoto-Ri

The 13th hour. Although technically the 25th hour of each day, it is the time when the world seems to change - the entire city turns a shade of dark red, demons emerge from the shadows, buildings shift and dangers lurk in every corner.

But it's your job to make this safer. Just be careful of what you run into --

Well uh...that's something alright.

▼ SCENARIO 6: Arrival

It's getting colder with each passing day. The nights are getting longer, which the demons seem to like, but it makes the city that more dangerous. Of course you wouldn't exactly know that because you just got here.

Maybe if you can find someone who knows exactly what is happening, you'll be able to confirm that it wasn't just a dream. Remember, the man you talked with (butterfly-mask guy?) said you were here as a Special Guest. If this is the city you're supposed to save, maybe he should have given you a map or something. Time to start exploring on your own...

▼ Post Info & Persona Help

Welcome to the test post! Don't worry too much about Persona stats or your levels here, just come out and make up a scenario about what they are doing.

If you are having an issue thinking of or creating your Persona, this section below can help you out! Just follow this link.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

If you have questions about the game, Hinoto-Ri OR if you need help with your Persona creation, what Arcana to pick and so on and so forth, feel free to post here! Other players and moderators will aid you in ironing things out!

We're all happy to help you as best as we can.

So I'm thinking of tossing in an app for Harry here. I've got a few different ideas for a Persona, though:

- something unpleasant, owing to his curse scar (Pale Rider? something made-up along those lines?). This would probably be Death Arcana, but I'm not sure Death fits Harry quite as well as some of the other Arcana. Becoming a wizard/rising to the challenge of defeating Voldemort/learning to rely on others might be a 'metamorphosis' or 'deep change', but writing that out also made me think of Fool, so idk...
- Actaeon (turned into a stag by Artemis) or Sigurd (raised by a deer), since Harry's Patronus (which is sort of Persona-ish if you squint?) is a stag. Actaeon's never been in a Persona game as far as I know, though, so I'd have to think of what Arcana best fits Harry - Chariot? Fortune (Harry is Fate's plaything)? Star?
