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.

10/2 - minato

[ She's been here long enough to know where everyone usually is, and she goes to the lounge to find Minato. She has all of her hair tied into a sidetail apart from the long side fringes, still in the usual blue clothes and starts making little ponytails with Minato's hair with girly hairties she got from various stores. ]

Hey, clown god. I'm here to ask for a favor. Can you hear me out?

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-03 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh... Okay.

Minato accepts that this is happening, sitting up a little straighter on the couch and taking care not to move, so 45 will have an easier time doing his hair. ]


Yeah, what's up?

[ Minato is so thoughtful. (single tear) She does have an easier time now, thanks to Minato's posture and continues making his hair look "pretty". ]

I have about twenty pounds of steel that needs to be turned into an ingot. I also got a gun and I want it to be effective against Shadows when I can't have Malphas there to defend me for whatever reason.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-03 07:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Why... is his Attendant powers being used for melting metal... ]

Did you want to make something with the ingot, or do you just want it more compact? For the gun... I can probably do that. Can make it fancier if you want, but it'll take more time, and it'll cost a little more.

[personal profile] defragment 2019-10-03 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
If you have something in mind that's more compact than an ingot shape, then I'll take that too. I'm mostly thinking about using it as an anchor-lite.

[ So that 45 can sink into the hole that leads to the second floor even faster, and when she leaves, she can just enter through the Velvet Room portal. Easy. She hates the first floor so much... also, she could bash heads with the steel when not underwater. ]

What's the cost difference between basic and fancy?

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-03 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Hm... I dunno. If you wanted a sword or axe or something, I could use up the steel and do both at once. Otherwise, ingot's fine.

[ Is 45 going to carry around all that extra weight all the time without it being useful in other ways? He can't fathom it. ]

The cost difference... I haven't decided yet. [ It's not like there's a set of rules he's following for these, unlike the more official requests open to everybody; it's just him wanting to see whatever comes to mind at the moment. ]

Basic... probably... would be something to do with your Persona. Seeing how much Malphas has grown or something. Fancy would be you.

[personal profile] defragment 2019-10-03 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
But I'm just a delicate girl. There's no way I can handle a sword, never mind an axe.

[ lol ]

Let's go for fancy then.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-03 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Swords can get pretty light. I bet you can handle it.

[ Minato believes in you, 45!! Besides, he's a delicate boy, and he can lift mountains, probably, if he feels like it. ]

For the fancy request... I want you to take selfies with three other people. It can be on their phones or yours, but I want to see them someday. In return, I can make your gun effective against Shadows, and add any element of your choosing to its shots.

[personal profile] defragment 2019-10-03 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
A selfie.

[ ... ]

Three selfies?

[ She gets out a phone that she also stole from RO, complete with the heterochromic cat charm dangling from it. It's a shame that this used to be a matching cell phone charm with Hibiki...

She turns it on and looks through the camera options.
]

Alright, I can do that.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-03 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Cool. Don't really want to go out this month, so I'll probably be in here somewhere.

[ She can always take a selfie with him and/or Souji, but he'll say it doesn't count, unless she hasn't managed three by mid-month or something. ]

[personal profile] defragment 2019-10-03 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Yup, I can understand that.

[ Minato said three other people, but she'll probably want to take one with Malphas anyway. Would he even show up on the picture?? ]

The 20 pounds of steel are on the table in my room. It's hard lugging scattered pieces.

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-03 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
[ He probably won't... But maybe Malphas can hold something up so it'll look like he's there anyways. ]

Sure. I'll have it done the next time you're here. Or- are you going to just stay here, since the weather sucks?

[personal profile] defragment 2019-10-03 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
It doesn't seem so bad outside right now. I'll probably grab a bite to eat. You want anything?

[ Normally, she wouldn't even bother offering anything to someone else, but Minato's a pretty okay guy in her book, and small things like this is fine, even if he doesn't have to eat. ]

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-03 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh... If you end up with leftovers, I'll take that. Otherwise something cold.

[ She can bring him back an ice cube in a cup and he'll take it, it's all good. ]
defragment: (pic#13454349)

[personal profile] defragment 2019-10-04 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, alright. See you soon~

[ With that, she'll leave the Velvet Room to go buy an ice cream sundae. She only eats half of it, which is enough to fill her ration quota for a good while, and returned to the Velvet Room to give Minato the other half. Enjoy your hot fudge sundae, Minato... ]

[personal profile] compendiem 2019-10-04 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ Heck yeah, half-melted ice cream is the best because you don't have to keep it in your mouth to melt it, half the work is already done for you. ]
