PART 2.a - In Character Non-WH13/Eureka Canon Characters
Full Name: Yu Narukami
Nicknames: Too many to count.
DOB/Age: 17 | March 3, 1994
Birthplace: Tsunokawa, Japan
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Questionable.
Species: Human
Fandom: Persona 4
Journal: fillintheblanks
PB: Official art/fanart
Canon Point: Post-game
Appearance: Yu stands at a height of 5'11 and weighs about 155 pounds. He has the appearance of someone long and skinny, but if you look underneath his clothes, you'll find a decent amount of muscles from all the fighting shadows he's done. His hair and eyes are both grey. He gives off an air of composure and tends not to be expressive. He prefers to dress simply, going for a button down over a logo shirt any day.
History: Yu's family moves around a lot. He hasn't stayed in any particular place longer than two years, usually less. Though he is usually taken with his parents, there came a time that they were going overseas. This resulted in the decision to send him to live with his uncle and young cousin for one year. Yu expected the same thing out of Inaba as any other place had given him: not much. On this count, he would be wrong, because Inaba was about to give him the best year of his life and the closest friends he could count on.
Immediately on, three people were nice to him: Chie, Yukiko, and Yosuke. What truly brought them together was the Midnight Channel, and this would bring others into the group as well. What is the Midnight Channel, you ask? It's both a window into the tv world and the tv world itself. How it works is that if you watch your tv at midnight, for a few minutes or so it will show what humans wants to see more of the most. A large conspiracy revolves around it, one that led to murder and kidnapping. The Investigation Team, as they called themselves, were searching for the true truth behind the events and trying to catch the culprit. You then include shadows, fog and personas and you have one huge clusterfuck.
Personas are what someone can call once they've accepted their own Shadow. They're a representation of your true self, each assigned to an arcana of tarot. They fight battle with and for you. A person's Shadow is the side of themself they've repressed, the parts underneath that you don't like to think about. Once you've accepted your Shadow as a part of yourself, you manifest a Persona.
To enter the Midnight Channel, you either need a special ability or to accompany someone with that ability. Yu has the ability to enter the TV, the only one within the team to possess it. He and his friends go in there frequently for their goals. Yosuke is his closest of all his friends, his partner. They bonded quickly and deeply when Yu helped Yosuke accept his own Shadow. Yu also defended his life. Then they would both help Chie accept her own Shadow, and they three would help Yukiko, and so on and so on... in the end, the team consists of Chie, Yukiko, Yosuke, Rise, Kanji, Teddie and Naoto. Yu wouldn't give any of them up for even the World. Together, their adventures would lead to finding the killer and the cause of everything. They would fight and defeat a deity being.
Through all this, Yu would become connected to many in town. Inaba would truly become his home... but in the end, he would still have to leave. Despite the heartbreak, Yu would still want to be with his parents, and would go back to them. Ten days after everything was said and done, he finds himself snatched up by a place called the Warehouse.
Personality: Yu is reserved and quiet. He prefers to be polite, but has his own sense of humour, one that results in things like teasing his friends. He can be naive and innocent. He tends to get away with saying things most other boys would be hit for because he seemingly doesn't know better.
Before he moved to Inaba, he was distant from others and didn't have many friends. He didn't see anything wrong with this, even if he felt extremely lonely inside. But now Yu would do anything for his friends, going to great lengths for them. He will also go to great lengths to keep his friends. The change was made because he gained close friends fast, and finally knew what it was like. He also hates the way he is when he's alone, wanting to keep from ever going back to lonely, cold and distant.
He tries his very best in things, improving himself in every way he can. Yu prefers to do things for the gratitude alone, but will take what's offered in return so as not to be rude. He's a caretaker and a good big brother to his cousin. He loves her so much that he is teased about having a little sister complex.
Special facts/special abilities about your character: Like other members of the investigation team, Yu can call up a persona by breaking his card. His first persona was Izanagi. Yu has the wild card ability, which allows him to call from a roster of 12 personas, rather than just one. His Persona list can be found here. While summoning a persona is possible in Univille, it would drain him completely if he tried. However, if he did so in the Warehouse proper, it would work fine.
He has access to all the arcana, including Aeon and The World. His personal arcana is the Fool. He can enter the Midnight Channel through any tv, though it needs to be big enough for him to fit his body through. He can bring others in as well. He wields a two handed sword in battle.
What persona he can call is affected by his social links and his current skillset. By becoming friends with certain people, he can access personas that they have a connection to. The better the friendship, the higher a level the personas he can call.
He is talented at languages, having at least passing knowledge of English, Spanish and French. He also knows a little Latin. He's smart in general, always doing well in school. He is a man of all trades, usually performing at least passingly at what he is trying to do.
What is arriving with your character? Clothing (short sleeved white button-down shirt, grey jeans, black sneakers with white laces), a black watch, a wallet, a cellphone. The wallet has about 1500 yen in it, a persona card, and a photo of the investigation team. He also has a messenger bag with a laptop and his phone inside. Glasses are tucked away in a side pocket, the ones that help see through the Midnight Channel fog. He keeps them mainly for sentiment.
PART 3 - Writing Samples
1. First Person Writing Sample: Here.
2. Third Person Writing Sample: Here.
3. First or Third person Sample: Yu's moved, yet again. A new town, new people - but this time, it's not by the choice of his parents. He seems to have been mysteriously caught by a parallel reality, something that worries and excites him. Everything was strange, from the gooing that had greeted him to the hologram that seemed to know everything. Yu is in his room, thinking about it, and writing down as much as he can remember from the conversation.
He misses his parents. He wishes he were with them. But he can't object to being here, not for a little while. It gives him a few of his friends back, something that he's wanted for awhile, something that's made the last while hurt. Perhaps they can get the team together again to try to figure this out. For it's a new mystery, one with offered explanations that only lead to more questions. This is a strange of kidnappings, and he can't really stand for it. He might be happy his friends are there, but they were kidnapped too. Nobody messes with his friends on his watch.
Of course, there's the official explanation: a camera had sucked all of them in. Maybe that was true, maybe it wasn't. But there had to be someone behind it. An object could not function alone, could it? It needed a user to work. So, who was the user?
He's not used to the idea of artifacts yet. He's not putting together the pieces correctly. But he's not lonely and sad anymore, and that's something he's thankful for.
