Who would you choose as your Velvet Room attendant?
Persona
As long as I don’t have to become a seal like door-kun elizabeth is the obvious choice
Lavenza
fuck that's nice art
Contemplate Theodore's inhalation of the aroma.
Theodore of course
Twins not even close
what are they anyway? are they human?
Doesn't Narukami actually dislike Margaret?
If you’re asking which protagonist I’d want to be I’d say narukami so I could date/fuck/marry rise and hang out with my bros kanji and yosuke
Are creatures that evaporate away after persona holders destroy the cognitive world every time a crisis happens human?
This... but the inverse.
Caroline & Justine
Persona protagonists are vessels for the player, why would he dislike Margaret unless you do, he doesn't even talk
P3
Mitsuru
P4
Naoto
P5
Ann
These were the objectively correct choices and everyone else is objectively wrong
Not from what I can remember. Margaret does have, by far, the least interaction with the MC though.
Lavenza, but damn Elizabeth's thighs are appealing here.
Twins > Elizabeth > Lavenza > Margaret > Theodore
absolute dogshit taste Jesus christ anon
Naoto is kanji’s crush though, you really want to break his heart?
i want margaret to step on my balls
So you call yourself a Persona aficionado eh? Come up with SL characters/plots which keep in touch with their respective arcana's meanings for:
male lovers
male priestess
male empress
female magician
female hierophant (P3 granny is part of a couple, let's not count her)
female emperor
Hard mode: don't just genderswap existing archetypes/characters or go for the obvious personality traits/plots and call it a day
Why is elizabeth th eonly one to put out
Elizabeth. No contest. Her P3 voice is pure ecstasy and she has an actual personality unlike the others. Also pic
She's a slut?
He lost interest after he found out she was a girl
p2
Lisa
p3
elizabeth
p4
Ai
p5
kawakami
all pregnant by the mcs of their respective games within five years
That's not true. Elizabeth and Margaret are still kicking around after the end of 3.
Naoto is too sexo to care about Kanji. He isn't even the best bro
I like how the velvet attendants are the exact opposite of the cast
P5's romance options are older women, attendants are little girls
P4's romance options are cheerful and bubbly girls, attendant is a stoic woman
P3's romance options are somber and sorrowful girls, attendant is upbeat and full of life
Kanji had all the time in the world to make a move, especially with the Golden epilogue, and never did. At that point he was either never going to act on it, or he wasn't that interested in the first place.
male lovers
brock from pokemon ripoff at a glance, but as you grow close to him you learn he is desperate for love because his parents are constantly fighting and give no attention to their son. when they do, they lash out at him for their failed love life. you originally plan to help him find a girl but instead end up helping him fix his parents marriage. instead of chasing girls, he ends up taking comfort in the love of a friend in you the player
male priestess
chinese outdoorsman who is into making traditional chinese medicine from foraging plants. he is into teaching people to live off the land and is great identifying plants. when another classmate keeps asking for health advice the preistess starts telling them they may need to go to an actual doctor since they are showing signs of a serious chronic illness. after much arguing and miscommunication that person finally listens and gets the treatment they need and now the priestess is free to continue with their hobby
male empress
this one makes no sense to be a male
female magician
headstrong tomboy witch who learns to train a dog to be her familiar. training the dog with her deepens your bonds romantically and if you take the romance route your dog becomes another persona user
female hierophant
old librarian who talks to you a lot about different religions and mythologies around the world. speaking with her could give you strong personas early. she gets harassed by the parent of a christian child who is offended that they would try to confused their child about god for showing them things like gnosticism and such. she eventually schools the parent on christianity and exposes them as a phony
part 1/2
part 2/2
female emperor
mid 20’s salarywoman who is climbing the ranks at her job but is completely miserable about it. you meet her at a bar like the journalist in p5. the more she gets promoted and gains more responsibilities, the more depressed she is about things she missed out on/is missing out such as having a boyfriend in high school or college and starting a family. if you take the romance route with her she realizes she would rather be a trad wife and instead of her persona transforming her arcana changes into the empress and teaches you how to please a woman and shit (all implied off camera of course) which also makes it easier for you to bond with other female romance options plus extra xp for making female personas and capturing female personas
Nameless and Belladonna.
I'm sold
Door-kun holds the Universe and not the World.
these are all great except the female hierophant reads like some kind of reddit story that ends with "everyone clapped"
He isn't even the best bro
Better than Yosuke by a country mile.
If they ever remake their games, will they change their outfits to match the later attendants?
Persona started at 3.
Who would you choose
You don't get to choose you fucking idiot! They get chosen(or created?) based on who is best for you!
i wanted to do a shrine maiden but couldnt think anything beyond that. all the social links have some type of conflict and i felt like the conflict would have been fitting for someone like that and for japanese society. but i see your point. i wouldnt have tried to make it like that or make the character out to be le smart atheist. i was thinking more like they try to _____ is against the bible but are actually proven wrong because as a librarian they actually read the book. something basic like that
I honestly like all of them. But overall I think it's:
Lavenza > Margaret > Elizabeth > CJ > Theo
And that's despite Lavenza and CJ having the worst Velvet Room somehow.
Sorry I like lolis and hags
Ignoramus doesn't know they play this song in the velvet room.
youtube.com
I would hope not. Their designs are distinguishable enough as is. Plus they incorporate the color of the room already. As seen in Belladonna's make up and Nameless' blindfold.
male lovers
Bro you help get together with the girl he likes
male priestess
hard drinking writer who always seems to have very pertinent things to say, the story involves speaking with him as he tries to figure out his novel and he guesses what you've been up to.
male empress
male model in a slump the protagobist feels strange homoerotic attraction towards
female magician
Magician isn't particularly gendered, it's someone the fool meets early in his journey, skilled and capable at one specific thing and desiring to move forward and illuminate the deeper mystery. So just make her a sporty tomboy.
female hierophant
Just a miko?
female emperor
"stop liking evil women"
he ends up taking comfort in the love of a friend in you the player
Really trying your hardest to no homo it, eh?
what do we know about them?
they are very strong, almost demi-god like beings that can create 'personas'
egor and the attendants always refer themselves as guides watching a great soul story and seeing how they turn out
all the attendants are siblings being margrey the oldest, then elizabeth, theadore and then lavenza
most of their quest/socal links they give out is them trying to also understand themselves and who they truly are
what i think
they all have yellow eyes like in P4 of the other selves, we know that these shadows can become their own being and create their own ego just look at teddy
my idea is they are shadows of great beings who have gained their own ego and are 'growing' said ego
so maybe one day we'll see teddy as an attendant?
making the male lover sl would be too easy/boring imo. plus there is more than one type of love and platonic friendship love is basically extinct in modern media

Not like we've seen a purely platonic lovers route with any of the female characters thus far.
plus there is more than one type of love
Of course.
and platonic friendship love is basically extinct in modern media
With all due respect, I disagree.

Oh cool I never thought of it that way, that is a good theory
so maybe one day we'll see teddy as an attendant?
God no... I can only handle so many bear puns.
With all due respect, I disagree.
i guess it would be more accurate to say male on male platonic love gets co opted by fags/fujos a lot now which i would want to avoid. just let bros be bros

I get the frustration around that. Though it's not like its a new phenomenon it's been a thing since the 60s if were talking about modern media landscapes. Yes, it can get annoying. Although to be a bit of a devil's advocate. It's not like male on male romantic love has really got much out there beyond the fringe. It's only in recent years has the popularity rose in mainstream entertainment. To the point where a good portion of creators try to queer/fujo bait. With decades prior only a few that stand out like Brokeback Mountatin. That isn't to say it should supercede it, of course not. And yes ultimately that demographic is dwarfed in comparison to opposite sex romances. The only thing I can agree is as you say, that demographic has certainly put on themselves into the spotlight with their ships and what not thanks to social media. But it was kind of always there in the background.
Furthermore while things have changed. M/M romantic relationships in media still hardly get the spotlight in any official capacity compared to F/F. I think you and I know that the latter is an easier sell to the mainstream. Nevertheless, I can sympathize with your frustration surrounding this topic.

Lavenza/Twins > Liz > Theo > Margaret
I would rate Margaret higher but Marie stole all of her fucking development in Golden. Liz and Lavenza got massive expansions in their respective special editions while Marie stole everything.
I have never once even started Marie's social link
Lisa
Never ever.
