Persona: Movement of Light [Beginner Friendly - no knowledge of the Persona Series or System required!]
The Grimoire of Heart | Campaign
About the adventure
"Welcome to the Velvet Room" Persona: Movement of Light is a game based on the Persona franchise of JRPGs, which are inspired by the Jungian idea of a collective subconscious. Your characters will learn how to summon "Personas", manifestations of their personalities. These Personas take on the form of mythical beings, legendary individuals or something similar to methaphorically show their users convictions, feelings and beliefs to the world. Using these Personas, your characters will fight "Shadows", which are manifestations of negative human emotions. Fighting these monsters, new alliances can be born, mysteries be uncovered and your own Persona be strenghtened. Apart from that, however, there is also your normal life: Set in modern-day Japan, your character either has school to attend or a job to do. Fighting Shadows doesn't fill your belly, after all, and forming bonds with other people is an integral part of strenghtening your own Persona. The mundane and the fantastical are deeply intertwined in this scenario.
This group will most likely play Saturdays or Sundays at 3-6 PM GMT+1. Starting and ending time is flexible, so don't hesitate to ask!

How to prepare
No special preparation is needed. We will be using FoundryVTT to play and Discord for communication. Please note that FoundryVTT does not support Grimoire of Heart (yet), so reading up on the rules is needed. However, I will provide some macros for easier playing.
What I provide
I will be setting up everything needed to play on Foundry - that includes character sheets, illustrations for NPCs (and probably Player Characters at a later point), maps, BGM (which can be turned off) and more.
Gameplay details
Please note that while there are a lot of content warnings, most of them I feel are optional. The Persona Series has traditionally dealt a lot with difficult topics and adressed them in an unusually direct manner. But hope, endurance and overcoming these topics has also prominently been featured along. With that being said, if any of the topics adressed in the Content Warning would be too much for you in a game, we will discuss this in a Session 0 as well as how to best use X, N and O Cards.
