All teams can use the plotting post below to discuss ; 1: The Dual Persona that will happen during this match (as you may remember this is the time when Dual Personas will be awakened for the first time, and one of the times where the CR won't matter). Keep in mind that while there will be a mega log for the battles, that they will not take place on the same day and you can adjust your characters being around the city when it is not the day they are fighting.

▼ New Players who Just Joined Us!

▶ And for those just joining us into the game who are like "OH MAN PERSONA BATTLES?"

Yessssssssssss! And you too can join in for ROUND 2! Just sign the post below (you have until the 19th TO DO SO and they will be part of the second round next week. Again, see This post for more information about the tournament itself.

▼ Helpers / NPCS!

▶ For the NPCs: Slight switch of plans! Instead of having them be part of the tournament fighting, we'll be sending the people who wish to NPC characters backgrounds about them and then tell you what they'll be doing on the last day. Will they be a red shirt? Will they be Anoli? Will they just be some guy in the stands slowly eating popcorn? FIND OUT SOON.

[hadronknight]

................well, at least I can safely say that Mordred's soul Persona is his own mother. but uh, any ideas on what their Dual Persona should be?

eq stop being complicated

[nofairy]

... Welp. Yeah no idea. Link's Persona is Epona so... uh. xD

[hadronknight]

clearly they should get something cool as their Dual Persona, but the only one I can think of right now is someone from the Knights of The Rounds, like Percival for instance.

unless they somehow summoned the Great Fairy which'd just cause a lot of awkward.

[nofairy]

Scream no. Also that's Zelda's Persona.

That might fit? There were no spellcasting knights iirc.

Lucan, Safir, Gareth, or Bors the Younger might work.

[hadronknight]

They certainly don't, and I'm actually a bit partial to Bors the Younger as they're related to the Grail and we all know how Nasu loves them Grails

and Random suggested we use the GOLDEN CUCCO for this-

[nofairy]

Sure. I just. Went through Wiki's listing of all the knights in King Arthur's court I could find until I found fitting ones. xD

alkdfs ofuq

[helenchanted]

What about: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleipnir it's not from Arthur's court but it is a 1) a horse of a god 2)Vikings are metal

[nofairy]

Link doesn't mesh too well with Norse mythology though and Naoya's the one you want for that pantheon

[hadronknight]

and mordred's not manly enough to be a viking

[recycleddestiny]

Alrighty then - so Masamune really hasn't worked a whole lot with his Persona at this point, but we can at least say that Motorhorse is going to make an appearance here.

Any ideas for a Dual Persona?

[nofairy]

Otoha is just going to laugh in the stands at motorhorse btw.

Link will just wonder what is wrong with the poor thing. :(

[recycleddestiny]

SHUT UP SENSEI IT'S AWESOME. B|

.... nothing's wrong with it, it's fitted to look cool, that's all! 8D

[bakegarasu]

NOPE YOU'RE JUST WEIRD but yes it is cool

... Link is the most unsure

[demifemme]

So Masamune has a horse for a Persona, and Shura has a professional killer. I think this calls for a Kelpie combination. Thoughts?

[recycleddestiny]

Ooooh, I can totally get behind that! Kinda curious what a Death + Chariot combination would yield arcana-wise, but lightning+wind would be an amazing elemental combination.

[demifemme]

Excellent!

Since the arcana of the dual Persona is based on how they feel about each other perhaps we should use the provided space in the Grand Prix tournament post to get them to know each other a bit. What do you think?

[recycleddestiny]

Probably a good idea, yes. :'D Now that I'm back home, I'll tag in proper.

[demifemme]

This is what I got so far for the dual Persona:

[KELPIE]
LVL2 | NINE of WANDS
Hitoshura [AU1] | demifemme | (LVL2,Matador) & Masamune Date [AU1] | recycleddestiny | (LVL1,Senrima)

SKILLS
▶ Garudyne (Inflicts a large amount of Wind damage on one enemy.)
▶ Ziodyne (Inflicts a large amount of Lightning damage on one enemy.)
▶ Grinders Anonymous (The next Fire, Ice, Water, Earth, Lightning, Wind, or Almighty magic attack will be 2.5 times greater in power. Self.)
▶ Placeholder
▶ Victory charge (Inflicts a large amount of Physical damage with a 10% chance of Fear on all enemies.)

The 4th skills is up for you to choose! The generator is here. We can pick level 2 skills because Shura is level 2. If you got questions or comments, don't be shy!

[recycleddestiny]

... oh my god this will be beautiful.

Anyway - I'm thinking of another phys. skill for this, along the lines of Heavenly Blade? though I admit I'm absolute balls for naming things.

[demifemme]

Added Heaven's Blade with a name I think fits their budding friendship :D

[KELPIE]
