Description
I heard there was a group based on the Persona games going on, so I decided to join in, and I decided to use Arashi Fuyuhana, one of my OCs.

"As winter petals fall, a storm comes..."

"Come! Take my Hand! I am thou... thou art I... from the sea of thy soul I come forth. I am Yukimura! The Hero that appears once every thousand years! My spear will clear us a path to our future!"

Age: 21
height: 5'9"
weight: 73 kg
Weapons: mainly Katanas, but can use any single-handed or double-handed sword-like weapon. Also specializes in kicking techniques, and augments his strength with hard-tipped shoes.
Persona: Yukimura Sanada, "The hero who appears once every hundred years"
Arcana: Chariot
Abilities: Fire and Physical Attack skills
Summon Method: Tarot

Persona Background: Yukimura was a prominent figure during the Sengoku Era. He was revered as a brilliant military tactician, most known to win various battles against large numbers with a small army. He was most known for his vigilant stand against Tokugawa Ieyasu at Osaka Castle, the battlegrounds that marked the last battle of the era. Though Yukimura was defeated and beheaded in the end, Yukimura was named a hero. Such titles he was given were "The Hero that appears once every hundred years" and "The Crimson Demon of War".

Equipment:
Weapon: Crimson Katana (A custom sword with an ominous red luster on the steel blade)
second equipment: Steel-tipped Gibsons (custom, handcrafted shoes with steel tips)
Armor: Detective's Outfit (customary detective attire)
Accessory: Detective's Fedora (Hardboiled +10)

Symbolism:
Yukimura's scarlet-red outfit personifies blood, and represents Arashi's bloody desire for revenge.

A samurai's code of arms, or banner, is considered the symbol of their pride, ideals and goal. To tarnish it is considered an offense. However placing over where Yukimura's eyes would be symbolizing Arashi "blindly" focusing on his goal and ignoring all that surround him, letting his pride and ideals be his drive to move forward.

Yukimura in real life was a prominent samurai, thus the iconic figure of honor. Despite Arashi's rash and overbearing aura, when in a fight, Arashi still retains his honor and pride.

The Chariot Arcana represents Arashi's disciplined personality, as well as his will and conviction in accomplishing his goal in avenging his lost family.

Yukimura's fully covered self represents Arashi's means to create facades to deliberately isolate himself from others.

Team: none currently
Personality: Arashi acts quite serious and can appear to be cold and insensitive. However, deep down, Arashi is rather caring and concerned of people on the inside. He puts up such a facade out of fear of losing any more people close to him.

-people who impede him
-amateur fighters
-eggplants

Bio: Arashi, in the modern day, was the son of a prestigious family. However, since a young age, his life had been full of tragedies. At age five, his parents were killed in an unfortunate accident, leaving him in the care of his two elder brothers. The three were able to manage for some time, but five year later, tragedy strikes again and Arashi's brothers disappeared, and were proclaimed dead when what appeared to be their bodies was discovered.

With little place to go, Arashi was next placed in the custody of the royal family, whom Arashi's family had close ties to. There, Arashi grew to become cold, isolated, and harsh. However, the one to warm his heart would be the single daughter of the royal family: Senani Yuki. Senani was able to see the loneliness that accumulated within Arashi's heart and was able to fill it, and she was the only person Arashi grew close to, but the boy feared that like his family, Senani too would be taken away from him. After four years in the care of the royal family, Arashi made the decision to leave, in hopes to keep Senani, the last person he has to care for, safe, and in his wanderings, Arashi grew to become a well-renowned international detective and police officer of paranormal investigations.

Now, Arashi is called in on account of a mysterious chain of murders taking place in his own city, and each crime seems to bear an eerie tie to one another as well as to the death of his brothers. Arashi also stumbles on shocking evidence that his parents' deaths were probably not an accident either. AS he dwells deeper into the mystery, everything Arashi believes to be truth will be changed forever...

Arashi's investigation begins to dwell deeper as he learns of a special branch of shadows that are now roaming the city, as well as learn the identity of the figure that had destroyed his life completely. Along the way, Arashi soon comes to gain the assistance of his separate beloved, Senani Yuki, as well as the assistance of other hidden users as Arashi pursues the man who ruined him into the world of the Dark Hour...

Extra:
-Arashi's weapon is the crimson blade that originally belonged to his ancestor who bears the same name. Look here for design on the sword: thearashi.deviantart.com/art/A…
-Arashi specializes in Iaido, a martial art in which the sword wielder quickly draws the blade from the scabbard for quick attacks and replaces his sword in the scabbard. Details here:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iaido
-Arashi has something against eggplant...
-Arashi's hair is naturally silvery-white. It's a unique trait passed down among members of the Fuyuhana Family.
-Being an international detective-for-hire, Arashi is fluent in many foreign languages. He'll know what to say (but I won't).
-Arashi owns his own honda DN-01upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia… (complete with license) and has a little fascination for tickering with motorcycles in his spare time. Of course, he can't drive it during the Dark Hour.

Persona-DA (c)

EDIT 1: Didn't like the first one, and I had planned on fixing the first one anyway. Also, I wanted to give Arashi a fedora, since it suits his character.
Edit 2: Felt like giving his persona a nice glow effect.
Edit 3: 2011 major edit...
