ARIA FUJISAKI ( virtue by blood )
NAME,
Fujisaki Aria
NICKNAME,
She is affectionately called Songbird by others due to her propensity to randomly burst into song and actually sound really good while doing so. She also has a show name, under "Black Arrow Shooter," because she has gigs in a band named VIRTUOSO INTERFERENCE, where she carries around a fake replica of a Zastava M93 Black Arrow anti-materiel rifle.
AGE,
She is twenty-two years old, and was born on the auspicious (or perhaps not-so-auspicious?) June the 9th.
GENDER & PREFERENCE,
Aria is definitely female! Her ideals of romance are not so pronounced and not so outwardly shown, though she knows herself well enough to know that she won't let such petty notions as 'gender' get in the way of love and happiness. Therefore, it's most accurate to place her as bisexual.
PROFESSION,
Aria no longer studies; instead she is the vocalist of a symphonic rock/metal band called VIRTUOSO INTERFERENCE, where she often sings covers of existing songs, with the occasional originals and singles spouted here and there. VIRTUOSO INTERFERENCE is not a particularly mainstream band, it can be perhaps considered indie, but it is reasonably well-known in the underground music scene.
PERSONALITY,
One would expect Aria to be an extrovert given her role in the band she's in, but she's not an extreme extrovert at all. While she's definitely not asocial or anti-social and enjoys being with her friends (at least those she considers her friends) and will stop at nothing to protect them or prevent them from being lost to her, she's pretty damnably quiet. On the flipside, if there's someone she doesn't like, she will have a tendency to act quite cold and sometimes outright rude and sardonic towards them if they are especially bad people in the first place. So, it's definitely a wise idea to try to get to know her better, because if you manage to win her trust, she will be quite the bro friend for you. However, be wary, trying to betray that trust will most certainly leave you on the end of her expertise of martial arts. All in all, Aria is ridiculously straightforward and doesn't really read hints of subtlety that well, so it's easy to play jokes on her and the like.
Jumping off from that train of thought, it's also easy to manipulate Aria to a certain degree due to her seeming density and slowness, though this appears to be something that is thrown out the window when exposed to a situation that calls for keeping someone or a group of people safe. Outside of combat or the battlefield, Aria is unusually passive and not at all aggressive, and just takes the time to chill out; it certainly doesn't help that she often randomly breaks out into song during these periods. While Aria's battlefield isn't necessarily out where one would expect, she is very efficient with what she does - protecting people. That's really all there is to it - Aria is simply a young lady who takes to wanting to protect her friends a little too far.
LIKES & DISLIKES,
HIT - Keeping her friends safe, fighting for them HIT - Singing HIT - Watching kung fu movies and other kinds of stuff HIT - Flowers HIT - Defeating the bad guys!
MISS - Injustice (basically, she doesn't like anything which goes against what she thinks is "right", whatever that is...) MISS - Trampling on nature MISS - Betrayal, traitors, etc. MISS - The haters (Haters gonna hate!) MISS - People who enjoy bullying
ALLIANCE,
strega, on the defense
WEAPON & TACTICS,
You can see on Aria's person are a set of long chains wrapped around her wrists, nobody really knows if this is part of her outlandish outfit which people think is a costume, or if it is really functional. One thing is for sure - it definitely is functional; Aria utilizes these chains to help her physical power go up a notch. She has been trained in martial arts by her foster parents (since her biological parents died in a fire), and has some degree of skill in both Chinese (who her foster father taught) and some forms of Taijutsu (who her foster mother taught). The only weapon she is armed with is a tantou; a small dagger which is concealed on her person. Interestingly, aside from physical trainings which give Aria a wide knowledge of the human anatomy allowing her to strike her opponent's weakpoints efficiently, she was also forced to study disciplines of basic meteorology (Tenmon) and basic geography (Chi'mon), the former being much more useful than the latter (as most of Aria's endeavours on the field would benefit more from the knowledge of weather than geography.
As a result, Aria also has rudimentary knowledge of the literal field influence on battle; and can predict weather changes to some degree, though she herself states "[she] only has a 1/3rd chance to get it right unless the change is blindingly obvious that anybody can get it." The martial arts forme which Aria is most proficient with is the Hung Ga, or Hung Fist, a southern Chinese martial art discipline.
PERSONA,
AIZEN MYOUOU, of the Hierophant (V), awakened
ADDITIONAL NOTES,
Fujisaki Aria was very young when her parents died in a terrible fire. The circumstances of that fire are still to be gleaned out by Aria to this very day, but the story is that Aria's parents had a very popular dojo which attracted many students and pupils. Aria was still young and yet was eventually brought up to become one of thes students, though a rival school became increasingly jealous as this school lost their students to the Fujisaki's dojo. Two people from the rival school ended up taking advantage of the fact the dojo itself was very old, still wooden, and eventually set it on fire one very dark night. Aria herself had been asked to do some laps outside of the dojo when this happened, and she had spotted the burning dojo, which made her panic and want to find out what was happening. Her parents had been trying to escape the burning dojo but the two arsonists were also attempting to blockade the exits. Aria panicked even further when she caught the two men causing some wooden supports to fall down on her parents... They burned, they burned, and it was then and there that Aria's persona awakened, which made quick work of the arsonists. But by then, it was too late. Aria's parents already passed off incineration, and Aria herself was too exhausted by that awakening to do anything anymore. She passed out.
Aria awoke to find herself in the household of close friends of her parents, who had found her unconscious next to a completely burned down dojo, the bodies of her parents reduced to ashes. She cried and cried, unable to control the fact that she had lost her parents, she was only 13 at the time, and she learned they would never come back. These friends of her parents weren't able to have children due to health complications, so they jumped on the opportunity to take care of Aria as foster parents. Knowing that it would be Aria's parents' wishes to train the child into a competent martial artist who would use the art as a form of building inner harmony, and if absolutely necessary, to protect, they became Aria's foster parents. Under her foster parents, Aria became subjected to a new life involving much training and studying, though it was interspersed with the things a normal family would do - spend time together, watching movies, going to amusement parks, that kind of thing. Life had calmed down for the girl and she became resolved in the fact she would protect anyone else she cared about, so that the same thing that happened to her parents wouldn't happen to them.
Aria had excelled somewhat in her studies, though this tapered off during her last formative years as a college student, graduating early with something somewhat shy of latin honors, though still a decent grade. During this period, life began to change for Aria. She had become increasingly curious about who had sent those arsonists those many years ago, what business they had torching down her parents' house, and sought, in a way, vengeance. She had searched information on contacts and leads on the plot, though most of the information was very much outdated and obsoleted, she had bumped into information on a group called "STREGA," and Aria had become somewhat interested with their links, and, taking advantage of the fact she had a modicum of physical and mental skill, decided she would insert herself in their ranks for her own motivations...

AIZEN MYOUOU ( Hierophant )
NAME,
Aizen Myouou
ELEMENT,
Light, support
AWAKENING,
Aria was 13 years of age when Aizen Myouou awakened, spurned by the death of her two parents when a pair of arsonists burned their dojo and home down in a terrible fire before her very eyes.
STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES,
Aizen Myouou is resistant towards the the main elements of fire, ice, wind, being a Vidyaraja, however, with his inner enlightenment, Aizen Myouou is also weak to all forms of physical attack.
SKILL SET,
- Marin Karin
- Hama
- Sukukaja
- Makakaja
APPEARANCE,
Aizen Myouou from Persona 1 / Persona 2: Innocent Sin / Persona 2: Eternal Punishment.
INFORMATION,
Aizen Myouou is also known as Ragaraja (Sanskrit) or Ai4ran3 Ming2wang2 and is a Mahayana Buddhist "deity" of sorts. He is named this way since he is known to transform worldly lust into spiritual awakening. In a way, he is said to represent the state in which sexual excitement or agitation can be channeled towards enlightenment and passionate love can become compassion for all living things. Aizen Myouou is manifested within Aria not in the conventional sense; as Aria's "desire" is simply for revenge and vengeance, which in a way is a "lust" for violence, and represents the inner desire of Aria to change her state of mind from one lusting for violence to one of compassion towards those she cares about.
Aizen Myouou is typically depicted as a red-skinned, fearsome man with wild, flaming hair, representing the suppressed lust and passion. He is at times shown with a lion's head on top of his own head. He is most often shown with six-arms, though there are four-armed and two-armed representations of him, too. Those arms hold a bell, a vajra, an unopened lotus flower, a bow, some arrows, and something which we cannot see (it is said only advanced practitioners of Buddhism know what that thing is).
Fun fact: Aizen Myouou, Nate's persona in Persona 1, awakened when Nate's butler, Yamaoka, died in front of him.
