IMPRESSIONS/DETAILED PERMISSIONS
★ First Impressions ♚ VISUAL: Black hair. Brown eyes. 5'11"/~180cm tall. Leaning on the slightly athletic side. Maybe in anime standards, Terry looks average. As far as colors and a quick glance go, nothing really stands out, other than looking like a foreigner in a Japanese town, full of Japanese people. He always has some sort of bandages or a gauze visible on him, because his life is just getting hurt in Cetana all day every day. He also works as a butler at a cat maid/butler cafe, so he has makeup on and has the side of his hair combed back (kinda like how he looks in his default icon). ♚ FASHION: He wears casual stuff--t-shirts, long pants, sometimes a hoodie. True hobo life. When he's at the hospital, he wears hospital clothes. This needs mentioning from how often he's there... ♚ DEMEANOUR: If you see him go by on a day to day comfortable life basis, he usually has a stupid look on his face that his friends want to punch him for. He gives off a very laid back and relaxed vibe most of the time. The vibe still carries over in battle partway, but he's much more serious then... which isn't really a high standard at all. ♚ SOUND: He has a relatively deep voice for a guy that's 20 years old. idk how to describe voices but when he screams, at least it doesn't sound high pitched and feminine. He can't really sound feminine either, even with some falsetto. ♚ SCENT: He smells like cinnamon 24/7. No, it's not cologne. Yes, he hates it. It's noticeable if you kinda stand close to him, but it's not too strong that it makes you gag. ♚ MENTAL INFORMATION: His logic makes leaps that makes absolutely no sense when said out loud, so if your character wants to know how his thinking process works, hit me up. ♚ MAGICAL INFORMATION: He pings detectors as nonhuman. Despite his blood drinking tendencies, he's not a vampire. Please don't stake him. ★ OOC ♚ BACKTAGGING: I backtag forever as long as you tag me back and that the thread still has a direction/purpose. I do make efforts to end threads if it seems like a good time to, though. ♚ FOURTHWALLING: I'm okay with fourth-walling, even if he's an original character. Give me that Re:Creators experience. ♚ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: I am okay with any sort of physical affection, even teasing, so go wild! Terry's reaction might vary depending on who initiates it. Terry's also pretty affectionate himself with things ranging from handholding, piggyback rides, hugs, and whatever else. ♚ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Terry loves fighting. Hit me up if you want your character wants to duke it out with him for any reason. If his injuries get too severe, let me know of the possibility, so that I don't mess up timelines. ♚ RELATIONSHIPS: I am down for shipping/shipteases/anything as long as there's some CR involved. Terry has absolutely no preferences when it comes to gender, so as long as it works out, he's fine with it. ★ Other Info & Permissions ♚ FIRST THING: I tag back very frequently, so if you haven't received a tag from me for an ongoing thread in 48 hours, please let me know! I might have lost it somewhere. ♚ SECOND THING: I do half of my tags from my phone, so there may be occasional strange line breaks or words without apostrophes (cant vs can't, etc) and other mishaps that can usually come from a phone keyboard, so you can either let me know or just ignore it. Just letting you know that it happens sometimes. ♚ THIRD THING: If you have any problem with me as a player or Terry as a character, please let me know! You can either let me know by PM or ♚ PINPOINTING: This is mostly the reason why you're here. Terry has this ability that he calls "pinpointing". It allows him to find anything, whether that be a physical thing (a lost cat), a concept (weak points), or info (blackmail material)... as long as it exists in whatever world he's in, he's able to dig it up (excluding important game-related things). As you can see, this is why I need permissions for this ability. What I mainly want permissions for is if it's okay for him to extract personal info from your characters, whether it be some minor trivia to something like hidden deep dark secrets or whatever. Of course, odds are, you'd probably have to provide me with the info anyway since I may not be canon familiar. Terry is also the type to use the ability whenever he wants, so I need to know if this sort of thing is okay with you or not. So, please fill out the form below! As a sidenote, I will most likely ask you anyway if I plan to use it in our thread. Also, if you want him to extract info about your persona's skills/innate resistances/weaknesses, he can do that too. Anything goes. |

Character: Tsubomi Kido
Preferred Contact:
Is it okay to have Terry extract info from your character?: Yes!
What kind of info is allowed to be extracted?:
- maybe he'll finally learn that her first name is Tsubomi lmfao
- she goes by Kido bc Kano suggested using everybody's last names since it sounds cooler. that's it. that's the reason. she also doesn't think the name Tsubomi fits her bc it means "flower bud" and she doesn't think herself as pretty or feminine or delicate or whatever, and she hates formal speech in general (stares at Hibiki calling her Mistress) bc it reminds her of her family which was a pretty traumatic experience in general
- anything about her Persona is fine, along with the fact that she's still a bit wary of it bc she's scared of ghosts, but loves cats, it's complicated
- her fears in general, which include ghosts, monsters, scary movies, haunted houses, roller coasters, bugs, that sort of stuff. also, like. fuck Shadows.
- she likes cute things... even if she'll pretend forever that she doesn't... and she especially likes cats
- she got her hoodie from her foster mother so it's why she never takes it off even when it's 340985734 degrees outside
- she has a half-sister named Rin who she really looked up to, she lived in an orphanage for a bit, was eventually fostered and gained siblings (Ayano, Kano, Seto, Mary) and then the rest of Kagepro happened and you can contact me about all that stuff if need be!
- she murdered her father when she was little? it was self defense
- she's technically dead with a snake in her soul? but then she died again, and now she's here... don't ask her what's going on, she doesn't know
- idk I'll update this with anything else I think of down the road

Character: Sasuke Sagami
Preferred Contact: PMs or
Is it okay to have Terry extract info from your character?: Y
What kind of info is allowed to be extracted?:
-Full name Sasuke Sagami with the character for "left" - he has a twin brother, Yuusuke whose name is spelled with the character for "right" I'm literally just including this because it's cute and dumb.
-He's pretty much killing his emotions and appearing calm on the surface. There's a ton of self-loathing bottled up in there.
-He was trained in his childhood as a ninja!
-His cat Kurou is trained as a ninja buddy and is absolutely spying for him when he goes off on his own.
-His twin brother bullied him. Like, a lot. He can probably endure torture by now because of it.
-He ran away from home and fell into a weird pocket dimension/void where he just kind of hung out with a fading snake spirit who looked after him as he just kinda slept, as one does when cripplingly depressed.
-He also figured out the snake spirit's power let her lock away things, so he asked her to lock away his feelings of pain, heat, and cold because he knew he could get away with it.
-The snake spirit pretty much ruined the life of a girl named Neko to force her to come to the snake spirit, and he blames himself for it because he noticed the snake spirit focusing on her and thought idly to herself that she had enough power to take the girl if she really wanted. Surprise! She did. His goal at home was to make sure the girl at least had a good high school life even if she ended up in a school for magical animals, but he went and developed a crush on her while he was at it.
-PROBABLY OTHER THINGS IDK
Notes: I'll add stuff if it becomes relevant!

Character: Rei
Preferred Contact:
Is it okay to have Terry extract info from your character?: Y
What kind of info is allowed to be extracted?:
Everything, but I'll give a really quick summary of Rei's important stuff. Feel free to hit me up whenever for more details because lmfao pq...
- her original name was Niko, which means "second child". She hates this name and outright rejects it.
- after she died, Zen gave her the name "Philei", which means "love"/"beloved". Since she couldn't pronounce it very well, she shortened it down to "Rei".
- she had a mother who abandoned her when she was ~five years old and a father + older sibling who weren't involved in her life and whom she didn't know.
- she never attended school due to becoming terminally ill and having to be hospitalized when she was ~five years old. She stayed in the hospital up until her death when she was ~16 years old.
- as Niko, her dreams were to have a happy marriage to a Prince Charming and to go to school to make friends.
- as Niko, her fear was dying without accomplishing anything. She was never afraid of death, but she was afraid that she would die without friends, without a purpose, and without any meaning within her life. Her life was filled with "suffering and envy".
- while in the hospital, she underwent numerous painful tests and cried a lot. One particular operation resulted in Niko having to shave off her hair and then passing away when the surgery went wrong.
- she was buried/cremated with a stuffed rabbit, a toy ring, a lock of her hair, and a note that read "To Niko-chan, please rest in peace, Yuki".
- after she died, she wasn't taken to eternity/the sea of souls. Instead, she spent 12 years in limbo and in a fake Yasoinaba High School that was created by Zen (who was Chronos at this time). She doesn't know the exact time that she was there, just that it was a "very long time". During her stay, she was very happy and was able to come to fulfil most of the wishes she had when she was alive.
- before arriving in Cetana/end of PQ, she was finally heading to eternity/the sea of souls with Zen. They were meant to disappear and go back to being nothing.
- her favourite food is takoyaki, but she also likes any type of food "as long as it has a taste". Some notable peculiar things that she has eaten include a cardboard cut-out of a cookie (she spat it out...), a ball of Teddie's fur (he rolled it up to make it seem like cotton candy...), and Yukiko's cookies (Rei passed out on the floor and dreamt that sand was being poured into her mouth...).
- she loves picture books, is very proud of her hair and takes good care of it, is fond of rabbits (they're friends!!), is bad with ghosts and the dark, and she never accepted her Shadow.
- this is so depressing lmfao i'm sorry for this wall of text of depression. pq [stares off]
Notes: we all love haki ♥

Character: Rio Takeuchi
Preferred Contact:
Is it okay to have Terry extract info from your character?: Y
What kind of info is allowed to be extracted?:
-She is one of eighty children created by a man named Yaiba from his own genes and the women he deemed worthy via in vitro fertilization. They are collectively called the Blade Children.
-Since Yaiba is the Devil of her world, this means she's... half devil. This manifests in high intelligence and skill at most things she tries, as well as an innate bloodlust.
-Upon reaching the age of 20 she will succumb to her devilish instincts and seek to eradicate humanity. However, unbeknownst to her, if she has the willpower to resist, she can maintain her current self.
-She is a combat veteran with an extensive knowledge of explosives and how to make/defuse them, but she's also proficient with various firearms and even melee weapons.
-Unsurprisingly, she has killed many, many people by now. Most of them were trying to kill her or were people who she suspected would attempt to kill her.
-She's missing a rib, but it was surgically removed when she was still an infant, as opposed to most of her other injuries which were endured in combat.
-Her mother died in an accident just like most of the mothers of Blade Children HMMM. She's used to living alone, but is close with a few other Blade Children who help support and defend each other.
-She's trying to avoid giving into her devil instincts!! really!!!!
-She also occasionally wonders if she should even exist considering she's supposed to wipe out humanity. Hm.
-If he gets the "I was in an accident" lie he can find out it was more like "I had to fight my friend who decided to kill me and all our other friends".

Character: Akira Kurusu
Preferred Contact: Plurk or PMs or Discord, giratina#3465
Is it okay to have Terry extract info from your character?: Y
What kind of info is allowed to be extracted?: - Pretty much all the events of Persona 5 (the original, not Royal) are fair game. Basically: they're Phantom Thieves who use Personas to forcibly brainwash people into facing their crimes by stealing the distortion out of their heart. Eventually they fought a false god/cognitive construct and willingly allowed the Metaverse, and all of their magically obtained power over society, to disappear for the betterment of the people of Tokyo. I'm not sure how familiar you are with P5 specifically so if you need more details on what actually happened let me know.
- Post-Shadow fight, Terry will get more detail on the police interrogation that happened near the beginning of the game. (Before that it was just a hazy mass of "bad", with no detail.) This might explain why Akira reacted the way he did to Shadow Terry. It was less an interrogation and more an extended torture session; Akira was kept constantly drugged so he was swimming in and out of consciousness, physically and verbally abused by a number of government agents. The ordeal was heavily traumatic, and relatively minor things (like grabbing his hair, or any situation where he feels his mental faculties are being addled) will trigger panicked and hostile responses.
- Terry can also get the details of Revivarium. Basically a Zero Escape style murdergame where characters were sorted into continually shifting teams, trapped in an underground bunker, and forced to play psychological games and injure or kill other innocents as part of a human experiment for a guy in a gas mask and a robotic rat. Akira solved a lot of puzzle rooms and constantly tried to find a way to dismantle the operation, which never succeeded. He became close to Red, Airi Ban, and Kokichi Ouma, all of whom joined him in Cetana and were later zombified. Again if you need more details on the specifics of what happened, lmk.
- If you want Terry can also get the broad strokes of the circumstances of Akira's childhood, which are pretty much just headcanon but here we go. When he was younger he grew up in a small town that was only a bit more modern than Hirajiro, to a local politician father and a stay-at-home mother. His father was thoroughly corrupt and emotionally abusive, while remaining a """pillar of the community""". At around age eleven his mom was actually driven out of town; no one asked any questions because Dad had laid out such a convincing tale of her as an evil wretched woman. As he got older, the two of them were in a pretty constant state of hostility until Shido had him arrested and sent to Tokyo, which again no one ever questioned, because by that point Akira's hometown reputation was solidified as an ungrateful nasty delinquent.
Notes: Akira hate hate hates having his privacy violated, so if Terry ever brings up that he knows more than what Akira's told him, it's going to have some negative CR consequences. I'm totally game for playing those out I just thought I'd warn you lmao
