Part 217: Addendum VI: Downloadable Christfigures
Addendum VI: Downloadable ChristfiguresI wanted to get something out today, but I couldnt figure out exactly what I could post with what I had recorded at the moment.
So I went and paid 20 Real US Dollars for some bullshit Ill never use! Lets show off these DLC Personas! I shouldnt be allowed to have money!
Lets head to the Velvet Room and take care of that.
But first, lets sit on the toilet and think for a while.
We can get rudimentary explanations of some basic concepts we already understand pretty well. Whatever.
Lets take a nap while were here.
Five more minutes, Mooooom
...are final leave If voice reached ...am most no Even must relay Please remember ...that by your own ...reverse repel ...Chosen ...cruel save world
I feel like I can hear a voice coming from somewhere
If you lay on the bed, Lavenza will try to send you a message, but its all scrambled and useless. Its fun foreshadowing, though.
Now, lets get to the meat of this: these DLC Personas. Theyre all specially marked, and can each be summoned once for free. All of them also have a unique skill. Downloading these Personas will also make them available via fusion, which is kind of annoying because itll mess with the recipes, meaning the Strength Confidant special fusions are trickier to make work. Its for this reason I didnt download any (other than Izanagi, which I got for free) until NG+.
Izanagi is the Persona of the Persona 4 protagonist. He is a major creation deity who made many of the islands and deities of Japan along with Izanami.
Izanagis unique skill is Cross Slash, which deals Heavy Physical damage 1-2x with high accuracy.
In addition to the default colors, there are also Picaro versions of each Persona, which are recolors with better stats and slightly different skills in some cases.
Orpheus is the Persona of the Persona 3 protagonist. Well, the male one. The female protagonist also gets Orpheus, but a female one, somehow. Orpheus was a master lyre player who convinced Hades and Persephone to let him bring back his deceased wife Eurydice, but failed to follow their instructions out of anxiety and lost her forever.
Orpheus unique skill is Cadenza, which restores 50% of the partys HP and increases their evasion rate.
Ariadne is the Persona of Labrys from Persona 4 Arena. I like Labrys a lot, she has an adorable Jersey accent. Anyway, Ariadne was the daughter of King Minos of Crete. She fell in love with Theseus, and gave him the tools to defeat the minotaur within her fathers labyrinth.
Ariadnes unique skill is Beast Weaver, which deals Colossal Physical damage to a single foe, but causes the user to have their Attack reduced.
Asterius is the Persona of Shadow Labrys from Persona 4 Arena. It is the minotaur from Minos labyrinth, born from Pasiphae due to a curse.
Asterius unique skill is Titanomachia, which deals Severe Fire damage to all foes with a high chance of Fear.
Thanatos is the other Persona of the Persona 3 protagonist, which developed from having the avatar of Nyx sealed within them. It is the Greek personification of death and mortality, who brings mortals peaceful ends.
Thanatos unique skill is Door of Hades, which deals Heavy Almighty to all foes with a medium chance of insta-death.
Magatsu-Izanagi is the Persona of Tohru Adachi from Persona 4. It is the dark mirror of the protagonists Persona.
Magatsu-Izanagis unique skill is Magatsu Mandala, which deals Heavy Curse damage to all foes, with a medium chance of Confuse/Fear/Despair.
Tsukiyomi is the Persona of Sho Minazuki from Persona 4 Arena Uitimax. It is the Shinto god of the moon, born of Izanagis right eye.
Tsukiyomis unique skill is Abyssal Wings, which deals Severe Curse damage to all foes.
Kaguya is technically Maries Persona, but she doesnt use it in her debut game, Persona 4 Golden. It has a unique Persona design and is heavily associated with her in that game, being the final Persona of her Arcana. She does eventually use it in her appearance in Persona 4 Arena Ultimax. Marie is a pretty controversial character, but this is honestly one of my very favorite Persona designs, I think its cool as hell. Kaguya is a divine, celestial being from a people who lived on the moon. She was found inside a bamboo shoot, and became renowned for her beauty, rejecting all who proposed to her.
Kaguyas unique skill is Shining Arrows, which deals Light Bless damage to all foes 4-8x.
Messiah is the ultimate Persona of the Persona 3 protagonist, who is really goddamn overrepresented here, I think. Hes the motherfucking messiah, maybe youve heard of him.
Messiahs unique skill is Oratorio, which fully restores the partys HP and negates all debuffs.
And thats all the DLC Personas! I spent like twenty bucks on this update, so you better have enjoyed it!
