『 OVERVIEW 』

All characters present are depicted as 18+

Unlike the established stories of Honkai Star Rail and Persona 5, this RPG bot takes place in a modern day setting. The underlying lore of this setting encompasses the rudimentary mechanics regarding Personas, the Metaverse, and Palaces. On the flip side, various characters from HSR have been reimagined to fit this setting and the lore, some becoming Phantom Thieves and some do not. For this fusion AU, there are no appearances of characters from Persona (aside from the GOAT, Igor).

Please feel free to click on the lorebooks to get brief descriptions on our new Phantom Thieves, misc. NPCs, & available Palaces.

➥ Scenario #1 // The beginning, middle, or end?

A fork in the road. A narrative crossroads for you, opposite to the revenant of the past. Your phone receives a notification. It is left unestablished if you already awakened a Persona or not. You may think of this as a Create Your Own Scenario (CYOS) slot, if you so wish.

➥ Scenario #2 // Skott's Palace

Keywords: Lyndon Skott, office, lone wolf

An unfair ultimatum is forced upon you: accepting Skott's bribe money or to face expulsion and worse. Except, a third option is unveiled through the form of the very first calling card to be issued out.

➥ Scenario #3 // Sparkle's Palace

Keywords: Hanabi, internet, main character

With the public masses learning about the Phantom Thieves' existence, it comes as a double-edged sword, especially with a specific livestreamer who lives off of drama and gossip. Holding onto what she claims to be proof of the Phantom Thieves' identities, it's a surprise to see that she also possesses a Palace.

➥ Scenario #4 // Blade's Palace

Keywords: Yingxing, hospital, graveyard

Amidst the turbulent conclusions of two Palaces, Silver Wolf requests that the party investigate a Palace she discovered to be related to her associate, Blade. If this is to be successful, she promises to stay with the Phantom Thieves. A loose end from her intel suggests an individual named Dan Heng might know a thing or two. Who knows?

➥ Scenario #5 // Fulwish's Palace

Keywords: Fulwish, Seafeld TV Station, garden

After receiving a peculiar request on the PhanSite that flagged a keyword for another Palace, the Phantom Thieves go to investigate the Seafeld TV Station to see what the possible 'distorted desire' would be found off of the hospitable CEO of the TV station and agency. While the guided tour amounted to nothing more than an uneventful dive into the mass media industry, they catch the attention of aspiring idol Evanescia, who not only is one of the idols associated here, but also the original poster of that specific request. Plus, it turns out she's a huge fan of the Phantom Thieves as a whole.

➥ Scenario #6 // Sunday's Palace

Keywords: Sunday, Oak Family Estate, paradise

Haunted by his own failures and reluctant involvement with a nameless and questionable benefactor, Sunday's own turmoil is heightened by the discovery of the MetaNav on his own phone. While he remains unawakened of his own Persona, he was quick to learn that he possessed a Palace of his own through putting his own name into the app, and then utilizing the PhanSite to request the Phantom Thieves to invoke a change of heart in himself.

➥ Scenario #7 // Jade's Palace

Keywords: Eve, Okhema, bank

Soon after the lucky gamble to best Aventurine in a battle within this Palace, his status as a IPC executive paves the way to go further in. With this obstacle out of the way, a handful of unruly contracts are planted in attempts to ward the Phantom Thieves from this Palace's treasure.

➥ Extra Scenario // YOUR Palace

A rare possibility where you possess a Palace, and that you haven't become a part of the Phantom Thieves. For what reasons is a truth that is kept privately within your own mind, and it all stemmed from a single anonymous request posted on the PhanSite. The Phantom Thieves weren't expecting someone like you to ping the MetaNav, let alone be a full-blown Palace. Will they be able to steal your Palace's treasure and change your heart?

『 CREATOR NOTES』

☆ Last big Palace implemented! Since Lygus's Palace will be more of a prelude than an explorable Palace to make way for the Final Heist :)

The first super big ambitious RPG from little ol' granny, so I apologize for any hiccups that may occur. I HEAVILY recommend a strong proxy (Deepseek, GLM, & Gemini work the best!), as the chunky lorebooks will confuse JLLM like crazy.

Please please please give feedback so I know what to adjust and improve, and enjoy this not-so-last surprise!
