You know what game series has tarot cards? Persona! Yes, the best anime game series. If you don't know what Persona is, take this quiz to find out which arcana you are http://www.quiztron.com/tests/persona_-_is_arcana_quiz_203379.htm. If you wish, I will assign you a flash rule that has something to do with Persona! It could be character traits stolen inspired by characters from the Persona series (read as 3 and 4 because I haven't played the other ones), or maybe something else tangentially related to Persona. Will these be hard? Will these be easy? Who loving knows! Come find out by quoting this post, today.

You know who I like in Persona 4, Nanako. She's a sweet little girl, but she has some personality. Like, she's quiet, but she's also determined, does things in the story, has some dedication, and is a cool character. Read that this little kid is a loving character. Thus, your job will be to make your protagonist a little kid (around 5-10 years old), but they will not be lovely. I should be able to recognize they're a kid, but they will be a full fledged, interesting character with distinct traits, desires, motivations, and non-cliche feelings. Did I mention the kid should also be a realistic character?

Meinberg posted:

Oh that's cool I guess. I'm gonna ignore that. The Persona series (3, 4, and 5) all have a distinct color that dominates their UI and most of their color design. 3 uses blue for a more somber story, while 4 uses yellow which is more upbeat and fun, while 5 will use red, presumably for a more aggressive story. Your story will include all 3 of these colors, and their presence must be important. And don't get smart on me and say "Well if I mix them all together, they make white or black so I'll use that instead." They all must be distinct from each other.
