Your Persona, your power. Personas are supernatural beings in which you summon after Awakening.
--An Awakening--
Awakenings are when you first use your Persona, summoned when you’re in great danger.
--Summoning Personas--
In the Dream Realm and Limbo, Personas can be summoned at any time. In the real world, Personas can only be summoned when facing death. Personas are summoned simply by shouting out their name.
You are allowed to carry 3 Personas at any given time. These are called “Equipped Personas” on your notes. Up to 7 other Personas can be kept as “Stored Personas in your notes.)
A Persona carries one of the skills from the link above. They also have strengths/weaknesses to different types of moves.
--Improving Personas--
In the game, you’ll enter a place called The Velvet Room. In here, Igor and Elisa will allow you to fuse two Personas (and more as the game goes on). Persona Fusion allows you to create an entirely new Persona with a new skill. The higher your Social Link related to your new Persona’s Arcana, the better the Persona will be. (Higher Tier skills.)
You are also allowed to evolve a current Persona for 100 XP at the Velvet Room, giving them a better Tier skill. Personas (that match your character’s own Arcana) can also evolve when your character undergoes a drastic transformation in life. Such as, maybe you were once shy and alone but now you’re not and have lots of friends.
--Strengths and Weaknesses--
Each Persona/Shadow has a Strength and a Weakness. (Or more, but the two must be equal. That means 3 strengths = 3 weaknesses.)
The following are a list of attack types you may be strong or weak against:
- Fire
- Wind
- Ice
- Electricity
- Earth
- Light
- Darkness
- Slash
- Strike
- Pierce
--Social Links--
Social Links are your bonds and connections with other people. (Players and NPCs) Social Links allow you to create stronger Personas the better the bond. Keep track of your Social Links on your Character Sheet Notes. The following are the Social Link Ranks, each raise deepening a bond between you two. (Can also reverse, and Ranks may end up lowering.)
- Rank 1 (Faint bond, usually when you just meet your Social Link. Allows you to create Tier 1 Personas of said Social Link Arcana.)
- Rank 2 (Create Tier 2 Personas.)
- Rank 3 (Create Tier 3 Personas
- Rank 4 (Create Tier 4 Personas)
- Max Rank (Create Arcana’s Ultimate Persona)
To make a Persona, write a small description of it, and choose a Tier 1 Skill for it to use. (According to what your Arcana described in Pros, feel free to ask me for help.) Next choose your Persona’s Strengths and Weaknesses. Both must be equal to each other.
Example:
Persona - Pyro Skull
Arcana: Magician (Same Arcana as the player using it.)
Strong Against: Fire
Weak Against: Ice
Skill: Agi

--How Do Personas Work?--
First of all, Personas each have an Arcana. ( newarcana.forumotion.com/t8-the-arcana-strengths-o... )
If you look at each Arcana’s Pros, they tell you what type of skills a Persona of said Arcana can have.
