"Done and dusted."
Minato Arisato is a moody, enigmatic boy who transferred into Gekkoukan High at the start of second year. Reserved, soft-spoken, and unflappable, he has a strange air about him, as if he's marching to the beat of a different drum. As the co-leader of SEES alongside his twin sister Minako, he is stoic and analytical in the face of danger, always willing to put himself in harm's way -- especially if he can rescue someone /else/ from its path. Despite this reckless desire to save others, though, he can be terribly cold when pressed for his opinion. It is this contrast between distance and connection which makes him compelling to so many, emotionally numb yet possessing stark insight into life's struggles.
Background
Probably normal! He never talks about it. (In progress)

Persona
- Orpheus (Fool): The Master of Strings, Orpheus was a bard who loved his wife Eurydice so much he ventured into Hell to save her... though he couldn't stop himself from looking back, and so lost her forever. He died cursing the Gods, and now he is here, with Agi skills and his signature Cadenza to heal the party as they're inspired to dance.
- Thanatos (Death): The personification of peaceful demise, Thanatos was by some myths a harbinger of suffering and by others a gentle angel of death. Thanatos has appeared, once, when Minato first fought the Full Moon Shadows to protect Yukari -- and it wasn't under his conscious control. This terrifying berserk figure uses Slash, Almighty, and Dark elements to destroy all before him.
- Jack Frost (Magician): You know Jack Frost. Everyone's favourite frosty mascot, Jack Frost hops into battle with his chilly Bufu attacks.
- Tam Lin (Lovers): A human turned into a fairy, Tam Lin lures women to their doom... and attacks Minato's enemies with the Zio line and plenty of Slash attacks.
Special Skills
Minato holds the Wild Card, and can summon multiple Personas in battle. What this means for him is yet to be revealed.
His Approaches are as follows:
- Determined Destiny: A Guts Approach which inspires those around him with his dogged determination, a thing which allows him to do various unflappable feats. How can he stay so calm when death is all around him? It's got to have something to do with this.
- Doom Talk: A Charm Approach which represents Minato using his enigmatic, mysterious, strange boy charms to win over those around him. While he's not necessarily always talking like a goth, the possibility is always there. Lurking. Waiting.
- Singular Focus: A Proficiency Approach which showcases Minato's concentration on and devotion to various forms of improvement... such as video games. Did you know that the things you learn from an arcade game might help you stop a train one day? Minato knows.
