Event Calendar
The December Edition is out and you can find it [RIGHT HERE]. Along with the usual moon phases and the temperature...wait. Uh...that's a pretty weird series of high and lows....
STAY TUNED FOR MORE INFORMATION!
By which I mean it's listed right below here.
PLOT ROULETTE
So A Very Merry Jack Frost Christmas and G.U.I.L.T. Outbreak..the Musical were pretty close last time...which means you get another round of vo--Nah we're kidding. You're getting that's close to both at the same time! Welcome to--
A VERY MERRY OUTBREAK THE MUSICAL STARRING FROST AND PYRO JACKS HOLIDAY SPECIAL™
So the weather...it's kinda strange huh? One day it's nice sunny weather, the next day it's snowy. It seems the two Jack clans can't agree if December should be a White or a Green Christmas and slowly try to outdo each other and win the populace's hearts. Hinoto-Ri happens to be stuck in the crossfire. As they argue, it breaks into an all-out war by the 13th with PIECES OF THE WARDS either in 2 feet of perfect light and fluffy snow or perfect vacation hot summer weather.
The weather changes, at least for the first 13 days, happen right after the 13th hour. Look up and suddenly the snowy day is now you covered in a feet of soft snow. Look up again the next day and that hot outfit just suddenly becomes useless as the snow is evaporated everywhere.
Of course this is a bit too crazy. Guess who gets to be called in to help lower the situation and tension?
You. Well for four of you. We'll need four volunteers; someone who is water affinity, someone who is ice affinity and someone who is lightning affinity and someone who is fire affinity. One per affinity, and all you need is that the character us strong|null|reflect|absorb those and uses the affinity for most of their elemental attacks. And that Persona must be their soul Persona.
Here's the catch, however; you're going to be brainwashed and join that side.
...woops.
Oh well, that's not too bad right?
...did we mention that the nanomachines that everyone has are malfunctioning due to some unforeseen reason (that will be explained much later) and everyone suddenly can only BREAK INTO SONG and express themselves using Song Lyrics?
...yeah. That's also a thing.
That might cause a bit of hurdle to get rid of the problem. And with this weird weather you'll never be sure if you have to go outside in a t-shirt or bring ten layers of clothing.
So as four of your friends go around singing about the glory of Green and White Christmases you have to rescue your friends and make both of the Jack clans stop this madness!
...singing all the while. And there will be a few surprises along the way...
(Also we promise that as silly as the event might sound, there will be some pretty serious stuff in there in true Persona | SMT fashion. Just so you don't think it's "A Cracky Holiday in Destiny Strings.")
SO WHAT SONGS CAN WE USE?
Anything! Any part of the world. Any year. Granted they probably will have no idea what they are singing if it's in another language. Lyrics can be slightly modified to fit with the singer better (so a song that talks about being a man can talk about being a woman, etc.)
Additionally, if the series your character comes from has songs if their own, you are allowed to use those as well (like songs that are found in the universe itself, not the theme songs, etc).
OPT OUT
For the most part, if you don't want your character affected, they will need to stay inside their apartment, since the weather there will not change.
App This! Please...
Is tommorrow, and we made a [GUIDE] so you can help us recruit people into the game and also tell us what YOU are looking for.Monster and City Add-ons
Soooooon....
AND AS ALWAYS....
THANK YOU AGAIN AND AGAIN
...and again. THANKS SO MUCH FOR BEING WITH US! I'm so sorry about this gif.

Atsuro will feel perfectly fine on cold days / areas and will be have no problems walking in his underwear nor suffer frostbite in the snow if he wishes to do so. Snow does not seem to melt under his hands either.
In contrast, all the hot days / hot areas are way too hot for him for the duration of the event, and he will need to avoid them as much as possible / stay inside / go inside a freezer.
During the 15th-25th, he will absorb all Water Attacks, but be weak to Fire Attacks. This will change the status of whatever persona they are using accordingly, even if they have one immune to fire. This only changes the Water and Fire stats, the rest remain the same.
