CHARACTER NAME: Minako Arisato
SERIES: Persona 3 (Portable)
CANON POINT: end of January 31, 2010
AGE: 17
APPEARANCE: link!

PREVIOUS GAME HISTORY: None.

PERSONALITY:
Minako comes across as a perfectly average teenage girl -- she's cheerful, upbeat, and girlish, and enthusiastically throws herself into her studies and club activities. She's outgoing and makes friends easily, and she gets along with everyone pretty well even if they aren't quite friends. While she has a lot of charm and charisma that attracts people to her, she's not the kind of person who goes out of their way to stand out in the crowd. Most of the time she's fairly calm and quiet, and not the type to actively seek out the spotlight.

However, as shown by her role in SEES, she's a strong natural leader, even if the position was given to her somewhat arbitrarily in the beginning. Her ability to remain calm and level-headed makes her adept at making quick decisions in difficult situations, and her upbeat personality helps her try to keep everyone's mood up at the same time. She tries to always remain strong for her teammates, and it takes a pretty severe situation for her to crack and show hesitation or fear. All of her strengths, plus her tendency to want to put 110% into whatever she does, can sometimes be a bit off-putting to people around her. It can come across as her trying to do everything herself or be more important than everyone else, when that's really not her intention at all -- she's just trying to do her best and get everything done. She has a lot of courage, of the sort that means you go and do what needs to be done even though it's absolutely terrifying. She also has a strong will and can be quite stubborn, and all of this together means that if something has to be done, she will do it no matter what it takes. It takes a special level of determination to go up against Death itself trying to end the world, after all.

Minako is extremely personable, and always wants to support her friends as best she can. People have a tendency to warm up to her and talk to her about their problems, and she's always willing to offer an ear and some advice when they do. She's highly in-tune with other people's emotions, and can easily emphathize with them and tell them what they want to hear. She also tries to see the best in people, so unless you've done something particularly egregious, she's not going to be put off by you even if you aren't very approachable. And once you've earned her friendship, she's incredibly loyal and will stand by you no matter how bad the situation gets.

While she always tries to be a source of support for others for dealing with their problems, she rarely seeks out support for her own difficulties. She puts her companions before herself, so she tends to keep her own worries to herself and put on a brave face for everyone else. She genuinely just doesn't want to worry them, because she figures she can handle things on her own. This means it can be difficult for her to open up to people, even people she's very close with, because she's so used to not sharing her problems. She is a very positive and optimistic person by nature, though, so she doesn't let minor problems get her down too much. If a problem is big enough, though, it can definitely crack her usual demeanor -- she was obviously scared that the world was going to end, and a bit freaked out that she was carrying Death inside of her for so long. But even so she tried to keep up appearances to support everyone else.

ABILITIES:
Minako's main ability is that she can summon a Persona, a creature canonly explained as a magical manifestation of one's psyche. Unlike the other characters in the game, however, she also possesses the Wild Card ability, which allows her to harness the power of more than one Persona. She can only actively use one Persona at a time, but she can easily switch between them whenever she wants. She'll be bringing along three Personas to Exitvoid: Orpheus Telos, Thanatos, and Black Frost. (Orpheus Telos doesn't have set skills in the game, so let's say it has electric attacks, healing skills, and the ability to resist ailments.)

She's a powerful fighter skilled at using a naginata, and, outside of battle, has max Courage, Charm, and Academics (meaning she's extremely brave, has a lot of charisma, and gets very good grades).

POSSESSIONS: Gekkoukan school uniform, her Evoker, a naginata, her mp3 player, and her Personas (see above).
