Kasumi is a sweet, hardworking girl who tries very hard at everything she does. A talented gymnast, she pushes herself in the memory of her sister, wanting to fulfill both of their dreams. On the surface, this can make a lot of her behavior feel somewhat forced or performed, and she isn't the type to let people see her when she's down. Her canon point will be just after the new year, so while she is a persona user, she isn't a formal member of the phantom thieves.
Light magic makes the most sense for her, but I'm also considering animal magic to lean into the Disney princess iteration of her persona. Also it would be adorable. I'm not sure what to go for in terms of a familiar, so I'm open to suggestions! Obviously since I'm looking at two characters from the same canon, I'll only be apping one (but putting both on the tdm).
Futaba Sakura
Persona 5
Enable me, please!
Futaba is an actual gremlin. A recovering hikikomori, she is a member of the phantom thieves, acting as the group's navigator/support, using her genius-level hacking skills and the help of her persona to guide them while they're traversing the metaverse. She still has a bit of social anxiety and doesn't necessarily do well with people, but once she's attached herself to someone, there is No Escape. Futaba is a disaster and I am sorry.
I'm leaning toward kinetic magic for her, because the idea of her being able to move things with her mind sounds hilarious and I am here for it. Still no idea on a familiar, so I'm open to ideas. Obviously I won't be able to app both Futaba and Kasumi, so it will come down to who gels better on the tdm.
Clarissa Snowflake
Sakura Wars
Enable me, please!
Claris is a talented writer working for the Imperial Theater, a takarazuka company in an alternate universe 1940s Tokyo. The theater acts as a cover for the Imperial Combat Revue, a group of men and women who protect the city using steampowered mechas, and as the team's resident glass cannon, she uses her magical abilities to fight demons. Somewhat shy and at times difficult to get through to (especially if she's caught up by a particularly good book), she can be incredibly sweet at times—as well and surprisingly blunt without meaning to be.
The type of magic we see her use in canon isn't explained in-depth, but most of the spells she wields are wind-based (her family is tied to a history of dark magic, but Claris refuses to let that fact define her). I'm debating between sticking to elemental magic for her, or doing something different and giving her healing magic. She'll have a small, sassy sylph as a familiar.
will narrow down to two, sorry for the wall!
