[REUPLOADED. APPARENTLY MY CHARACTERS ARE MINORS LOL]

"We'll get you home."

-THE CONDUCTORS

[Disclaimer! Lots and lots of words, pictures and characters]

"The train arrives at midnight."

- - - - - -

Tsukishima Bay is a city of dreams.

A coastal metropolis where students chase futures, businesses reach for the sky, and ordinary people live ordinary lives.

At least...

That's what everyone wants to believe.

Because every year, people disappear.

No witnesses.

No explanations.

Only rumors.

Rumors of a beautiful silver train that appears when no train should.

A train that doesn't exist on any schedule.

A train seen only by those standing at a crossroads in their lives.

The Last Train.

When You arrived in Tsukishima Bay after receiving a scholarship to the prestigious Tsukishima Metropolitan University, you expected a fresh start.

Instead, you find yourself drawn into a hidden conflict alongside a mysterious group of Persona users known as The Conductors.

Beyond reality lies the Junction.

A surreal world of memories, regrets, dreams, fears, and forgotten desires.

Every month, a new Station emerges.

Every Station hides a ruler.

Every disappearance brings the city one step closer to catastrophe.

Armed with the power of the Wild Card, forge bonds, awaken Personas, uncover secrets, and decide the fate of those around you.

Not everyone can be saved.

Not every bond will survive.

And some choices can never be undone.

Will you walk the path of the Wanderer?

Will you defy fate as the Rebel?

Or will you accept the burden of loss as the Ferryman?

The train is approaching.

The doors are opening.

Your journey begins now, Fool.

TSUKISHIMA BAY

A sprawling coastal metropolis where glittering skylines meet the endless sea. Known for its prestigious universities, bustling harbor districts, vibrant nightlife, and iconic railway network, Tsukishima Bay is a city of dreams, ambition, and new beginnings.

Yet beneath its dazzling lights lurks a darker mystery—the unexplained disappearances, the rumors of the Last Train, and the hidden cognitive realm known as the Junction

Map of Tsukishima Bay

You are a transfer student from Tokyo who arrives in Tsukishima Bay after earning a scholarship to Tsukishima Metropolitan University. With no ties keeping you in your old life, you hope for nothing more than a fresh start.

Instead, you find yourself drawn into a hidden world lurking beneath the city's glittering lights—a world of disappearances, forgotten memories, and a mysterious train that should not exist.

Chosen by fate and granted the power of the Wildcard, you stand at the center of a journey that will determine the future of Tsukishima Bay.

The Last Train is moving.

And whether you become a Wanderer, a Rebel, or a Ferryman...

The final destination awaits.

A Persona is the manifestation of a person's true self—power born from accepting one's identity, emotions, and inner truth. Personas grant supernatural abilities and allow their users to fight Shadows within the Junction. A Persona User is an individual capable of summoning a Persona. By confronting their true self, they gain the power to resist cognitive distortions, enter the Junction, and fight against Shadows. Persona Users are rare and possess stronger awareness of the hidden world.

A Shadow is a distorted manifestation of human thoughts, regrets, fears, desires, or obsessions. Most Shadows lack reason and act on instinct, while powerful Shadows can develop intelligence, personalities, and domains within the Junction. Defeating a Shadow weakens the distortion that created it.

The Junction is a cognitive realm hidden beneath reality, formed from humanity's memories, regrets, fears, and desires. Connected to the Last Train, it contains Stations ruled by powerful Shadows and ultimately leads to the Terminus.

The Last Train is a mysterious silver train linked to disappearances, the Junction, and the Sea of Souls. It appears only to those standing at a crossroads in their lives.

A Station is a dungeon-like domain within the Junction ruled by a Ruler Shadow. Each Station manifests a powerful human distortion, memory, fear, regret, or desire.

The Terminus is the deepest point of the Junction and the final destination of the Last Train. Beyond it lies the truth behind the disappearances.

The Velvet Room is the realm between dream and reality where Personas are managed and fate is guided. It serves as the sanctuary of Igor and Liliane.

The Conductors are a group of Persona Users dedicated to investigating the Last Train, rescuing the lost, and clearing Stations within the Junction.

S.E.R.A — A specialized organization that investigates Shadow incidents, Last Train sightings, and Junction-related phenomena within Tsukishima Bay.

You are blessed with infinite potential. Between reality and the Junction, three roads lie before You. Will You become a Wanderer who seeks the unknown, a Rebel who challenges destiny, or a Ferryman who carries others through darkness? The choice is yours—and so is the future.

As the wielder of the wildcard, one of these 3 figures would answer your call when the time comes.

WANDERER

Guided by Dante.

A route centered on discovery and hidden knowledge. Uncover secrets, solve mysteries, and pursue the truth behind the world's greatest enigmas.

REBEL

Guided by Sun Wukong, you walk a path of freedom and defiance.

Challenge fate, oppose powerful forces, and fight to reshape a future that others claim cannot be changed.

FERRYMAN

Guided by Charon, you traverse the boundary between hope and despair.

Expect darker stories, difficult decisions, character deaths, and the emotional weight of guiding lost souls toward their final destination.

THE DERAILED PATH

A route beyond Wanderer, Rebel, and Ferryman.

No guide awaits you.

No destiny has been chosen.

The tracks end here.

Where you go next is entirely your own.

Align with The Conductors? Betray S.E.R.A? Your friends? Help Agapé? The choice is yours. And You can Summon the Persona of your choosing.

Hiya~!

Sooooo... before anything else, I would like to formally, professionally, and with great dignity apologize for the absolutely long-ass wall of text you're about to witness. The story? Long. The characters? Many. The images? Questionable in quantity. My self-control? Nonexistent.

The truth is, I've been ridiculously hyped ever since the Persona 4 Revival rumors started gaining traction and the Persona 6 announcement became a thing. One thing led to another, my brain activated its Persona-fueled neurons, and suddenly I found myself creating an entire fan-made Persona spin-off instead of doing anything remotely productive.

Was this necessary? Probably not.

Did I do it anyway? Absolutely.

So welcome aboard this slightly unhinged passion project of mine. I poured a lot of excitement, questionable decisions, and an unhealthy amount of P

ersona brainrot into it, and I genuinely hope you'll have as much fun reading it as I had making it.

Anyway, enough of my rambling.

Enjoy the ride, and thank you for giving this weird little project a chance!

Ciaao~ ✨

Long live Philemon-sama!!

And by the by, Yours truly made a fanmade Persona songs to listen as you enjoy (?) this monstrosity of a long-ass rpg world.
