Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 RP

(Investigation Team) Yu Narukami: At school and in the Midnight Channel, he wears the conventional school uniform of Yasogami High School, which consists of a black jacket with a black and white houndstooth pattern on the collar and gold pins on each side of the collar, one in the shape of a roman numeral "2" on the left and one in the shape of Yasogami High's logo, along with black pants, an untucked white button-up shirt and black loafers. In the Midnight Channel he also wears glasses with gray frames and SMPTE color bars on the side. On his days off, he wears a dark blue blazer and a gray zipped-up jacket with a turquoise ring around the collar, waistband and sleeves over a light gray turtleneck, black pants and black and gray sneakers. During the summer semester, he wears his summer uniform, which is mostly the same as his winter uniform, simply removing the jacket and switching his long sleeved button up for a short sleeved one. On days off in the summer, he wears a white polo shirt with the collar popped tucked into brown pants with a lighter brown belt, a white watch with a brown strap and dark brown loafers. Yu is also relatively silent but only speaks when summoning a Persona or when he needs to talk. Other than that, he barely speaks at all. (Persona: Izanagi, able to hold others) Yosuke Hanamura: Yosuke has slightly unkempt fawn colored dyed hair parted in the middle[ and brown eyes. At both his school and inside the Midnight Channel, he wears his Yasogami High school uniform, along with a white V-neck T-shirt with long sleeves and a pair of orange headphones (save for two occasions, he is never seen without them). Inside the Midnight Channel, Yosuke also wears orange glasses. His shoes are gray and white with cream-colored soles. In summer, Yosuke wears his school summer uniform, along with another V-neck T-shirt with short sleeves. On weekends, he wears a white jacket with an orange V-neck shirt, dark green pants and brown combat boots. During weekends in the summer, he wears a white V-neck T-shirt with red motifs on the front, red cargo pants and brown shoes. Yosuke is a clumsy transfer-student who arrived six months before the protagonist. He is often the target for jokes about his lack of muscles and body strength. He fights with blunt, double-handed objects such as wrenches, but more so knives and kunai. (Persona: Jiraiya) Chie Satonaka: Chie has dyed light brown bowl-shaped hair and brown eyes. At school, Chie wears a modified Yasogami High uniform with a light green, high collared athletic jacket adorned with several decorative pins (including a smiley face) and underneath her mini skirt she wears short black compression shorts. In summer, however, she is seen wearing the school's standard summer uniform, having wrapped her jacket around her hips. On days off, she replaces her uniform with a white top and underneath two colors: one black and white stripe and second a blue top, with high collar lighter green jacket with purple crystal necklaces, navy jean skirt, and lighter green knee-high boots with a white rim, drawstrings on the outside of each one and white toe/heel paddings. Her summer outfit consists of a green tank top with a floral pattern over a yellow tank top as well as a colorful wristband at each arm, brown choker, dark blue shorts with white trims in the bottom and a belt of dark blue and white horizontal lines with a small orange pocket, and white sneakers with green details. (Persona: Tomoe) Yukiko Amagi: Yukiko has dark brown eyes and has long straight black hair that is kept neat with a red hairband. In the Midnight Channel, she wears a pair of red frame glasses with a double nose bridge. Yukiko wears her Yasogami High Uniform along with a red cardigan sweater and black tights. When helping out at the family inn, she wears a pink kimono. On summer school days, she appears virtually the same, except she doesn't wear tights, replacing them with white socks and her sweater is now smaller and unbuttoned. On winter holidays, she wears a red dress and a red-flame scarf/ascot with yellow tail ends, along with black knee high-boots and socks. On summer holidays, she appears in a black shirt with puffy sleeves, a short white skirt and white sandals. At the summer festival, she wears a violet yukata with a pink obi. Yukiko is a reserved, soft-spoken and shy girl, having been raised at an early age to be a prim and proper lady of traditional Japanese customs. At school, she is known for scoring well on exams, earning top grades in her class and often studying the material with her best friend since early childhood, Chie Satonaka. She is aware of her high-class reputation in Inaba, being the heiress of one of the town’s main attractions, further encouraging her reserved nature. This proves to be a heavy burden on Yukiko, her responsibilities making her feel as though she is inherently worthless outside of her pretty looks and fulfilled obligations. She doesn't open up to anyone out of fear of being ungrateful and selfish, but internally stresses over the pressure. The push-and-pull of her circumstances cause her to want to "escape" her life and go anywhere else, even putting her friendship with Chie at risk when she realizes that Chie can't fulfill her wish of being saved. (Persona: Konohana Sakuya) Kanji Tatsumi: Kanji is the tallest member of the Investigation Team despite his young age compared to the rest of the Investigation Team, and is bigger and more imposing than all of them. He has a bleached-blond sweptback crewcut with a widow's peak, gray eyes (blue in the animation), with a scar above his left eye. He wears multiple piercings, metal jewelry, a black long-sleeved shirt with a skull-and-crossbones design on the front under his school uniform, and a white belt. He wears black sunglasses while in the TV World. On days off, he wears a Schott-Perfecto leather jacket with a fur collar and in the summer he discards his jacket and dons a black tank top with a flaming skull design. During the campout, he wears his P.E. suit in a fashion similar to his winter uniform. Kanji seems to be a delinquent who was strong enough to fight a biker gang in middle school, earning him a town-wide reputation of wildness and toughness. He drapes his school uniform over his shoulders in a punk-ish style to emphasize the style he wishes to embody. However, when he sometimes gets flustered he tends to threaten people, occasionally getting into fights and scraps. Regardless, Kanji is a genuinely level-headed guy in spite of all that.[5] The context of Kanji's actions comes from taking care of bad people with his own hands, normally warding off actual bullies and delinquents with his own hands. Kanji grew up with a family that is extremely open-minded and spiritual of the meaning of things, often blurting out spiritual concepts such as "Cloth is alive" or "Dyes are one with the universe," which made Kanji far more thoughtful to an emotional scale. Because of that, although he's grown up masculine, he has a more feminine side, especially prominent in his hobbies like crocheting. (Persona: Take-Mikazuchi) Rise Kujikawa: Rise has long copper-colored hair tied into two pigtails, brown eyes and pale skin. In almost all of her outfits, she wears pink pearl earrings. She wears her school uniform to code, only personalizing it with black thigh-high stockings and a turtleneck underneath. In the summer, she switches out her blazer and wears knee-high white socks. During midwinter, she wears a light pink cable-knit coat with a fur collar and a hot pink scarf. Her winter casual clothes consist of a puff-sleeved orange dress with floral patterns on the hem and ribbon ties at her shoulders, a white turtleneck with orange straps at her wrists, dark brown leggings, and brown furred knee-high boots with caramel stripes. She also accessorizes with a necklace. Her summer casual clothes consist of a bright orange halter top with circular cutouts on the collar, through which her yellow undershirt can be seen, a heart-shaped locket, white capris with buttons and brown wedges with pink, yellow, and white straps. While working at her grandmother's tofu shop, Rise wears a white headscarf, a white smock, a pink turtleneck, a short teal skirt and brown flats. When exploring the Midnight Channel, she wears pink glasses. Rise is cheerful, outspoken, naughty and cute. Though she is quite boastful about herself, she is very sweet deep down. She is referred to as a "dangerous girl" by Chie Satonaka, due to her boldness in flirting with the protagonist, and her teasing of Yosuke Hanamura and Kanji Tatsumi. Rise is also proud of her beauty and femininity, as she gets offended when Kanji doesn't have a nosebleed upon seeing her in a swimsuit. Rise is quickly annoyed by the smallest things, which ends up with her crying dramatically, and sometimes producing crocodile tears. She's rather childish and possessive; she once pouted and told Yu Narukami he mustn't call another girl "cute." She has also shown her competitive side on many occasions, and she's mocked Yukiko Amagi’s insecurity and her cooking. Her cooking skills, like Chie and Yukiko's, are horrific and she is prone to making overly spicy food, as shown in her omelet that she made for Nanako to celebrate Mitsuo's arrest. Rise used to be an idol but quit to work at her family business, citing health reasons, after Kanji is rescued. She is stressed out, and tired of show business because she doesn't know if the Rise that everyone admires is the "real" Rise, or the persona of Risette that she presents to the masses. Rise's biggest insecurity is her individuality. She fears that she has no true self and that her career is making her lose it due to constantly putting up fake faces to the general public. While she initially attempts to change this by running away she is left feeling unsatisfied. By the end of the series, she acknowledges all of those supposed fake selves she presented to others were actually just other sides of her true personality. Upon realizing this, she decides to start up her career content that she will be portraying her true self for all to see. As the general supporter/navigator of the group, Rise helps the team stay on their toes, informing them all sorts of things in battle and using her Persona, Himiko, to scan enemy weaknesses and boosting their spirits whenever she can, even going so far as to use her Persona to heal the team, raise their attack or defense and more. She also can sense or detect things in the Midnight Channel that aren't easily perceived by others, including Teddie. When she notices a friend going through a hard time, Rise acts as a comforter, helping them realize the truth and offering them solace in any way possible. Despite having a mischievously playful side while with her friends and offering a lot of sass to back up for it, she is also very passionate about them and is always there to lend them a hand. It should also be noted that if her friends are in danger, Rise will do whatever it takes to make sure they are safe. (Persona: Himiko) Naoto Shirogane: Naoto is the shortest member of the Investigation Team. She is androgynous in appearance with short blue hair and gray eyes (blue in The Animation and Arena). She wears Yasogami High's gakuran-style school uniform in the winter, while wearing a white shirt in the summer, both with blue platform shoes. Having lost both her parents in a car accident when she was very young, Naoto is an orphan who acts very mature in spite of her age. As a descendant of a respected lineage of famous detectives, she wears formal clothing and deepens her voice when she speaks in a sophisticated, stilted manner. She is generally very serious, focused and mission-oriented. At first, this seriousness is rigid, unnatural and stubborn due to her secluded nature. This causes her to have trouble getting along with others by adamantly shutting them off, but even then she's not being taken seriously by those she wants to be acknowledged by as she comes across as trying too hard to be an adult. She also hid herself pretending to be a man as police were still old school sexist at the time but after awakening to her Persona, she stopped hiding. (Persona: Sukuna-Hikona) Teddie: Teddie's appearance in the Midnight Channel is based on a stuffed animal. He is an anthropomorphic bear with blue fur. He wears red and white jumpsuit-like clothing, though it appears to be part of his body. Additionally, the head part of his suit has lenses which allow him to see through the fog in the Midnight Channel. After developing an ego, Teddie becomes a teenage boy with blond hair pulled to his left side, bright blue eyes and fair skin. He is shown wearing a white blouse-like shirt with various adornments like a red rose and a flamboyantly designed collar and he keeps this appearance in the real world. Being a textbook mascot character: Teddie is usually bubbly and cute and is known to lighten the mood when investigating the case, much like Chie. Possibly due to being a Shadow unfamiliar with the human world, or perhaps due to being a cartoon bear, Teddie has a lot of childish naivety, innocence and is pure of heart. He does not know a lot of human customs, does not know what "scoring a hot stud" means or what a "manwhore" is. This results in him having a lack of social boundaries, such as when he flirts with Chie and Yukiko, although he fails every time. He is also given a lot of people nicknames for himself to remember. He also used to act cowardly when shadows appeared in the Midnight Channel and his but not anymore when he awoke to his persona. Regardless, later on Teddie begins to play dumb on purpose even if still oblivious to many things, all the while deeply caring about Yu Narukami and the Investigation Team deep inside, as pointed out by Yosuke Hanamura. Although the rest of the group work together to establish the importance of finding the truth and working together, Teddie gives an optimistic and lighthearted mood to the team. Because of his circumstances, early on during the story he fails spectacularly at being cheery as his personality is hollow and he refuses to acknowledge it. He would try to impress the members of the Investigation Team with bear puns, but not even the impressionable Yukiko Amagi was swayed. Even then, his words would very often get lost in translation and come across as incomprehensible and outright speaking nonsense, making him an annoyance for even the valiant Chie Satonaka. Because of this, he often puts himself into positions that only enforce him being socially ostracized. Behind his disposition at first he suppresses ultimately overwhelming existential dread surrounding his mysterious origins, identity, meaning and isolation, which eventually manifest in Shadow Teddie. Teddie's metaphorical mask sometimes slides off with bouts of sadness and confusion from thinking too much. His biggest insecurity is his own identity and potentially having no reason for existence. Throughout the story, similar to Rise Kujikawa, Teddie struggles to find out his own self and his place in both the TV world and the real world, as he has lost his own memories. As the story progresses, Teddie begins to develop a fear that he perhaps has no "true self" and that he has no memories to recover, but continues to search for them regardless. Being in denial of being a Shadow and having no self, Teddie at first has extreme misconceptions about the truth, emphasizing on undeniable facts to a severe extent. After slowly facing himself and his confusion surrounding not knowing who he is, Teddie becomes more curious of the real world and begins to be genuinely impressive with his personality even if slowly. Aside from growing a human body, he does develop a charisma and a witty way of speaking that reflects his personality, making him a kind of a prankster. Although having an effective innocence to the real world, Teddie is especially perverted in making sometimes inappropriate remarks to the women of the investigation team which they find a little annoying but he eventually only reduced that to a lighthearted joking manner. (Persona: Kintoki-Douji) (Police) Ryotaro Dojima: Dojima has short, grayish black hair, gray eyes, three-day stubble and broad shoulders. He is frequently seen wearing a dark gray shirt with pulled up sleeves, a loose, light red necktie and a brown belt with a metal buckle as well as a pair of dress pants along with dark brown shoes. On his left arm, he has a silver wristwatch. Despite carrying it around most of the time, Dojima is never seen wearing his black jacket. Living alone with his daughter, Dojima is shown to be a hard-working detective, although he often becomes a workaholic. Adachi notes that he is a particularly harsh supervisor to him, but Dojima is a seasoned detective and takes his job seriously and is merely training Adachi for their line of work. While he loves his daughter, he has difficulty being a father to her, especially in wake of his wife's death, whom he states that Nanako resembles in both appearance and personality. His wife's death weighs on him heavily and he is obsessed with catching her killer, even at the expense of spending time with his daughter which lead to family problems until Yu Narukami gave him help and motivation to spend more time with Nanako (Persona: None) Tohru Adachi: Adachi is a young adult with short, unkempt, black hair and gray eyes. He wears a black suit with a long-sleeved white dress shirt, a crooked dark red tie, and brown field boots. Adachi seems to be a cheerful and jovial detective displaying textbook incompetence, such as threatening to throw up upon being asked to investigate a murder scene. He is outright treated as comic relief, due to his irresponsible and slacking nature. He also tends to make terrible unfunny jokes and puns that only he would enjoy. He jokingly refers to himself as Dojima's slave, complaining about the workload that his partner piles on him. Adachi is shown to be rather lazy, even encouraging Nanako to take shortcuts in her homework. Adachi also often accidentally (and sometimes purposely) blurts out the police investigation results to the Investigation Team, much to his own chagrin. He can be seen hanging around the Junes Department Store, usually "killing time." This stems from when he was younger, his parents only cared about his grades in school, resulting in an aloof upbringing without many friends. Due to the hard work in his youth, Adachi feels that he should be entitled to success in life, although he was kicked to Inaba to become Dojima's assistant due to incompetence or in Adachi's own words, a "botched job." Adachi grew bored of the life he lived in the quiet country town of Inaba, which he describes as "Nowheresville," since he was often pressured by Dojima and didn't have much income, having to resort to having daily meals of boiled cabbage to the point that he was bored and disgusted by its taste. He ultimately grew to resent the "reality" of a society that he felt boxed him in and desired a means to escape it. This motivated him to enroll in Izanami's cat-and-mouse game and unleash a series of bizarre murders to relieve his stress in Inaba. (Persona: Magatsu-Izanagi) (Velvet Room) Igor: Igor has the appearance of a bizarre old man with a long nose, pointed ears and bulging, bloodshot eyes. He wears a black suit, white gloves, white or black socks and black shoes. He appears to be quite tall when fully stood up and is almost skeletally thin. While presenting himself as a mere servant of Philemon, Igor seems to be far more than this. He was originally a doll handmade by a mysterious person, who became alive thanks to a magic ritual. Because of that, Igor ponders upon the question of whether he is merely a doll or perhaps even human. Thus, he shows an interest in human beings. Further on, he creates Margaret, Elizabeth, Theodore, Lavenza and Merope, as assistants who pursue similar questions in life to assist him in the Velvet Room which changes based on the person's perspectives of the world. Despite his rather striking appearance, Igor bears a calm and courteous demeanor while speaking with the protagonists. Though the well-being of the protagonists is important to him, he reserves the disclosure of certain information for more "timely" points in the story. During conversations concerning the protagonists’ actions, Igor opts for rather cryptic comments that tend to foreshadow coming events and possibly the outcome of the story as a whole, regardless of whether or not those comments are at the time understood (which may be his intent). This suggests that Igor may have near-omniscience, though by his own admission, there are things that even he can't foresee. Additionally, he also takes a neutral stance himself, and almost never directly interferes or gives obvious warnings to any people or anything that he had a contract with. (Persona: None) Margaret: An elegant lady and a resident of the Velvet Room, Margaret has platinum-blonde hair, pale skin and golden eyes; traits shared with her siblings. She is said to be unbelievably beautiful, and Rise even expresses envy of her beauty when the Investigation Team encounters her. Like her siblings, she is dressed entirely in dark blue with matching high heel shoes and uses black and golden accessories. Additionally, Margaret carries around a blue book, entitled "Le Grimoire.". Margaret is a professional and quiet individual and is significantly more mature than her younger siblings Elizabeth, Theodore and Lavenza, although she shares Elizabeth's sense of humor. (Persona: None)
