NAME: Goro Akechi CANON: Persona 5: Royal FACTION | ASPECT: Zenith (T1) | Iconoclast GIVE US A BLURB ABOUT THEM!: for most of the game, akechi presents himself as extremely charismatic, with a mind and schemes so sharp that even as a teenager he earns the moniker of Detective Prince. but his niceties are all a mask, and in reality, Akechi is just well versed in the art of deception and motivated by personal revenge, in a way that makes him proud, selfish, and unable to open himself up to Power of Friendship. he prefers to work on his own, though he is capable of cooperation with, ugh, teammates. if he must!!
due to having grown up alone, akechi is desperate for love and recognition. he especially values bonds with adults over those with people his own age, and his craving for validation is so strong that it makes him susceptible to manipulation, though once he realizes he’s been made a “puppet” he absolutely refuses to let anyone else decide his fate. no matter how good he is at pretending otherwise, he has grown to be disconnected from his true feelings, to the point of misconstruing his jealousy and admiration for his rival and only friend as hate. His true nature is chaos itself, and though by late game he takes on a mostly formal yet blunt personality with a cynical view of the world, he lets loose in combat, ruthless and unhinged in equal measure.
TLDR: big angy baby throwing temper tantrums, actually desperate for love but do not touch him. (also hates god-like beings and pancakes.)
GENERAL PLANS: he's brand new so i don't have many plans for him just yet, other than taking a hard swig of that zenith juice because, well, he's dead in his world so he has no place to return to! as such, i expect he'll be fully dedicated to the cause and trying to impress his (adult) zenpais by making himself Useful! by any means necessary! let him commit atrocities!!!
EVENT SPECIFIC PLANS:: ♠ since he's brand new and doesn't have a good grasp on the Enemy side just yet, he'll be avoiding direct conflict until Highstorm is under attack. if you'd like to have your character turn a little psychotic, here's your chance! otherwise, he's here for a good fight; ♠ that said, he has a preference for indirect strikes and subterfuge, and i'm hoping i can put his psychosis-inducing powers to good use to facilitate cyrus's assassination. he absolutely THRIVES in chaos, so he could possibly create a diversion by targeting civilians? inciting more monsters into attacking? his zenite senpais will have an easy time working with him, just say the word! ♠ if any meris would like a run-in with going feral, though, i would absolutely love to provide!! a forced betrayal just to shake things up a bit, ruin some CR maybe?? he has no friends and neither should meris!!
CR WISHES: ENEMIES!! people who PISS HIM OFF with STUPID. RELENTLESS POWER OF FRIENDSHIP TYPES who can try (and fail, multiple times) to get him to open up!! adults he can impress!! and maybe be adopted by?? generally speaking, he is truly free to be himself for the first time in his life for better or worse, and if he can find people who accept him despite his (many, MANY) flaws, that would mess him up. in a good way. probably.
(also unlocking new Bonds is how wildcards have access to more Personas and that has been my dream in every game i've ever had him in, do not let me down, kenos!!)
