II THE HIGH PRIESTESS: MAKOTO NIIJIMA

CODENAME: QUEEN

PERSONA: LANCELOT

[Joker][Mona][Skull][Panther][Fox]

I really really liked Queen’s character, and the whole student council president/doom biker aesthetic. For this one I tried to capture that using the silhouette of Kaneda’s bike from Akira. Designing bikes is surprisingly hard!

For a Persona, I originally wanted to find a counterpart to Pope Joan, i.e. a fictional authority figure from Medieval Europe. King Arthur was my first pick, but he was already in the series, so I went with Lancelot. In a way, Lancelot playing second fiddle to King Arthur fit with Queen’s story of playing second fiddle to Sae, and needing to feel useful.

0 THE FOOL: AKANE KURUSU

CODENAME: JOKER

PERSONA: ARSENE

[Mona][Skull][Panther][Fox][Queen]

I’m gonna draw an AU because why not

Protagonist doesn’t change too much because I love that fluffy hair, and I wanted to keep the basic essentials of the character (unmodified uniform, stoic, and a little cocky).

Arsène Lupin is so important to the “phantom thief” character archetype that I didn’t change him, but I’ve got alternate personas in mind for the other characters.

They’re nonbinary. I felt like that fits with how they can use personas of any gender.
