NPC CONTACT

premisetakenfaqnavigation



The Velvet Room exists between the consciousness and subconsciousness. It is inaccessible by characters who do not wield a Persona or have lost their Persona for various different reasons. In fact, its entire existence is limited only to Persona users and to the regular individual, they will not be able to even see the entrance to the room. Although it is stationed primarily in the castle, the entrance of the Velvet Room may also be found in various different locations, such as by the dungeons and the shrine. Sometimes, there may be a "malfunction" and an ordinary door will actually lead into the Velvet Room. Why does that happen? Well... perhaps characters will have to ask the attendants for that answer.

Within the room, two attendants occupy the space. These attendants act as guides and will perform various different duties in order to assist the characters. They will pass on plot information, answer questions, give out requests (with the promise of a reward, of course), forge magic-infused weapons, heal, and such on. Requests, in particular, are given out ICly and OOCly monthly and may be undertaken by any character who wishes to complete them. Please see the first toplevel of this entry for more information.

The attendants may be regularly contacted by entering the Velvet Room and, as a result, players may comment to this entry to interact with either attendant. Players may specify which attendant that they'd like to interact with or allow the mods to choose. These threads may be used towards AC and bonus activity. However, due to the attention-intensive nature of NPC threads, these threads may be quickly wrapped up in order to save time for the mods.

VELVET ROOM ATTENDANTS


 

🢒🢒 minato

The attendant you might have to wake up, pretending to be asleep so you have to bother Souji instead of him. His requests tend towards what he wants to do or eat at the moment, but he seems to enjoy seeing the world, though he isn't always good company. Seriously. Go bother Souji instead.

 

🢒🢒 souji

The more talkative attendant between the two, though he could say some pretty bizarre things. He also seems overly fond of cats for some reason and will unironically go "nya". His requests normally seem to involve taking him out somewhere or bringing him particularly... strange objects.

But you've already accepted that you aren't good at this, and that you'll fail more often than you'll succeed. Do you feel any motivation to try harder to succeed more?

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 07:17 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe... two times?

[ out of the gazillion years he's been alive ]

I don't get people as well as Souji does, so it's hard. But I guess... if somebody's given up, and they come to me... I have to try harder. You haven't given up yet. I have a lot more confidence in you than I have in myself, so you'll be fine. Probably.
toybombs: ([Sigh] now that I would)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
[Minato!!!!!]

Maybe you two should be learning alongside us instead of just trying to guide us.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 07:25 am (UTC)(link)
Can't disagree with that. I'm sure some of you would make better Attendants than me and Souji.

[ Instead, it's Minato's job, and all he does is lie around the lounge all day. ]

Besides... all this is stuff you should be talking to your friends about, right? It would mean more, from somebody you care about.
toybombs: ([Strain] my lungs are)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
[She smiles, shaking her head.]

No. I don't think any of us want to talk about it. It's something we all know we're facing, and we're probably too scared to bring it up.

But we know each other well enough that we don't have to.

[That kind of understanding is important, too.]

You're right that I don't have them here with me, though. So it's up to you to talk to me instead. Please improve yourself so you can do better next time.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... A Guest request, huh? That's new. What would my reward be if I improve and do better?

[ Besides learning how to be more empathetic and encouraging and an overall better Attendant and person. Those things don't matter. He wants at least a piece of candy for his efforts. ]
toybombs: ([Think] Burnt every inch of me)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
[Hmm... she ponders this over.]

Do you like any animals other than cats?

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 07:38 am (UTC)(link)
It's Souji who likes cats. I'm kinda impartial to them, but I think dogs are cool. And birds and dragons and minataurs.

[ He likes demons... but he's trying really hard to keep it to animals. ]
toybombs: ([Smile] It's above)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Well, at least two of those are simple enough.]

Then if you can tell me five of your successes with other guests, I'll make you a handmade dog stuffed animal. Would that work?

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
Okay. Do they have to be new successes?

[ Not that he has many, if any, previous successes to capitalize on. ]
toybombs: ([Smile] God)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 07:45 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. Only things after this count.

Oh, and you don't get to pick how it looks unless you get ten successes. Then you can come with me and pick out the fabric.

The more you work to improve yourself, the more you get to improve the look of the stuffed animal. It can be a reflection of your efforts.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 07:49 am (UTC)(link)
You're a slave driver, Rio... My requests aren't this hard.

[ But yeah, he'll do it... He wants a little Koromaru doll haha he already knows exactly what he wants it to look like, so he has to get ten somehow. ]
toybombs: ([Smile] I'm fire proof)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 07:52 am (UTC)(link)
You don't get to pick the breed unless you get fifteen!

[Ganba, Minato!]

It's a fitting reward though, isn't it? You can cash in whenever you want, but that just means you're accepting the easier path of failure instead of trying to continue to improve yourself to the best you - and your stuffed animal - can be.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 07:55 am (UTC)(link)
[ Oh my god. Rio's completely leading Minato around by the nose and he can't help but laugh. It's more of a scoff, but that still counts as a laugh. ]

Yeah, yeah. I'll do twenty if you also sew a little costume for him to wear. With little angel wings.
toybombs: ([Smirk] Not to play with fire)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
It's a deal.

[All according to keikaku.]

I can't wait to hear about what a great attendant you are, Minato ♪

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 08:01 am (UTC)(link)
You're going to have to wait a bit, but I'll do my best.

[ This is the only way he can own a dog now. It's been four months and he's just now being bribed to being a good Attendant and it worked. Amazing. ]
toybombs: ([Smirk] That I would)

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-24 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
[Rio comes to him for help and ends up helping him... sort of. Good job team.]

It's easy to find me. [She lives here, after all.] Don't interrupt me or anything, but you can always update me when I'm on my way out, or when I have a new request for you.

[Have we mentioned she needs more ammo.]

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-24 02:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[ good job team ]

Yep. You know where to find me too. If I really need you, I'll lie in front of your portal so you have to trip over me to get in and out.
toybombs: ([Smile] there instead)

This is a real tag that is staying here

[personal profile] toybombs 2019-11-25 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
I will kick you in the face.

oh my god

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-11-25 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Next time you need to thread with Minato, please start it off by kicking him in the face
