Person stories. Persona 3.

Igor: It seems that the uniqueness of the person in this work is determined by the rule, according to which the original version of the person comes from Greek mythology, and after awakening – from other myths. This is a systematic manifestation that the potential of each person is expanding due to awakening.

Elizabeth: “Now let’s ask each owner to explain the origin of his person.”

Person – “Orpheus”

Igor: “Ah, it seems a little silent, so let me explain to me. Orpheus is a character of Greek mythology, known for following his beloved Eurydice, who went to the underground world. He is also the son of Apollo, the god of the sun. Orpheus is known as a master of playing on the lyre, so carries it on the back. In the game, you can see the glimpse of his musical talent in the cadence (solo improvisation) of Mix Raid. In the story about the underground kingdom of Hades, it seems that Orpheus played an important role, strewn with the sounds of the harp of Cerberus, the gatekeeper of the underground kingdom. They also say that Zeus used Orpheus harp to create the constellation “Lira”

Person – “Tanatos”

Röji: “Do not mind if I talk about him?”

Reggie: “Doesn’t matter? Well, then no problems. Tanatos is the god of death in Greek mythology. He was born from Nyukta, the goddesses of the night, and he is not the most pleasant god. At first he was a conceptual god, so his appearance was not clearly described, but in the epic poem of Homer he first appeared as a god with a person. At first, Tanatos was the death itself, but as a result became a god of a messenger who takes away the souls of the dead. There is a legend that people did not die for some time, because their souls went to the underground kingdom. By the way, in psychology there is a term called “Tanatos”, which personifies the instinct of all living creatures to return to an inorganic state, which manifests itself in an effort to destroy itself.”

Person – “Messiah”

Elizabeth: “This is a person belonging to the Arcane” Court “. Being the highest rank of this lasso, it can only be obtained by maximizing the community “team to destroy nuukta”. It is probably strange to hear that in the early stages of the game planning it was impossible to make the Messiah without maximizing all communities except the “court”. It’s good that in the end this aspect was simplified. And here he is the Messiah. This is not a mythical God or the devil, but the Hebrew word meaning “Messiah”. In English it is read as “Messia”. If you translate this word into Greek, you will turn out “kpitoc”, which is known as the origin of the word “Christ”.”

[Initially, the word “Messiah” meant “anointed”, which comes from the fact that in Jewish culture, when the rulers and priests, they were anointed with oil (olive oil). This word began to call a good leader or even the Savior who leads the people.]

Person – “Hermes”

Jumpey: “Hello, I’m Jumpey, and my name is Hermes. In Greek mythology, he was known as the Messenger of the gods. Hermes quickly traveled around heaven and was revered as the god of travelers and merchants. This person looks very fast with these steep wings, is it so? The only problem is that swiftness made him the god of thieves. In mythology, he is also known as the inventor of the harp, and Lira, on which Orpheus plays, was made by Hermes. There is also a story about how he saved Io from the paws of Argos, a hundred -eyed monster.”

Yukari: “God, why should Jumpey save me?”

Jumpey: “Ah, yukari, you can’t just break here! Yukari loves to buy branded things, is? The luxurious brand Hermes is also named after Hermes. Hehe-heh.”

Yukari: “Oh, really. There is a similar sign on the Luckyonescasino.co.uk person. Returning.”

Person – “Trismegist”

Jumpey: “A small explanation is required here. In the world of alchemy, in addition to Greek mythology, there was a divine alchemist, who was also called Hermes. I remember what I heard a little about him at school, he left behind a lot of important documents in the history of alchemy, such as the “texts of Hermes” and “Emerald Tablet”, and that he was the only one who was called “Hermes the Great (Hermes Trismegist)”, in honor of the god Hermes in the world of alchemy of sages. He is also called a person who received a philosopher’s stone. I heard that the trissmegist is red, because he is three times more than an ordinary character, but, according to Mr. Council, a person’s designer, this is not so. Sorry, however. This is the color of my heart, which is burning with passion when I wake up to my mission. Here. Hehe-heh.”

Person – “Io”

Yukari: “Hello, I’m a Takeba. My person is Io, a character from Greek mythology. Io – the goddess who served in the temple of Hera. She was fascinated by Zeus, who was married at that time, and Io starts a novel with him because she saw this in a dream. But when Hera finds out about this, Zeus turns Io into a cow to hide everything. This is why a person has a cow’s shape. But the worst thing happens further. Shera still caught her, who guessed everything, as a result, the guard was assigned to Io in the form of Argos, a hundred-eyed monster so that Zeus could not approach her. It turns out that Io was still in the shape of a cow?! Then it was possible to persuade Hermes to save Io, but that time he also attacked the APU caused by the angry hero, as a result, Io had to run to Egypt. By the way, for this reason, APU still holds next to the cows. Be that as it may, after the arrival of Io in Egypt, Zeus returned home and the wrath of Hera died, and Io married Tsar Egypt and became the queen. Despite the fact that it is Arkan of Love, it is a very bloody massacre, is it so?”

Person – “Isis”

Yukari: “Recently, I talked about Io, who went to Egypt and became a queen, and therefore she is identified with Isis. In Egypt, the White Cow is considered a messenger of the gods, so is there a connection with the legend of IO? Initially, Isis had nothing to do with the cows, and in Egyptian mythology, Khator is portrayed as a goddess with the horns of a cow. Later, this began to be perceived as an attribute of Isis, and therefore in Greek mythology it began to identify with Io. By the way, Isis is a Greek word, and its real name in the Egyptian language is Aset. Her husband was a god named Osiris, but he was killed by a god named Set. However, there is a terrible story that Isis found the corpse of Osiris, copied with him and gave birth to a son of a mountain. It is difficult for her to imitate, and I don’t want to. It is also believed that she was the goddess of the earth who loved the mountain, and later influenced the Christian faith in Virgin Mary Maria.”

Person – “Lucia”

Fuka: “Hello, I’m Yamagiy. I would like to present you my person – Lucia. This is not a mythical god, but a man revered as a saint among Christ, who, as they say, died during the persecution of Christians in 304 of our era. Saint Lucia is her official name, but it’s easier to name her Santa Lucia. The famous song was sung about her. They say that once Lucia performed a miracle, healing her sick mother, and in gratitude to God wanted to give out her wealth to the poor. Lucia was worried about her and mistakenly decided that she was robbed. He reported Lucia to the authorities, since at that time Christianity was prohibited. However, Lucia did not lose. The authorities convinced her to turn to another faith, and, having mobilized 1000 soldiers, wanted to take away with them, but could not move away. It looks like an event of awakening my person. Despite the fact that her throat was cut, Lucia was still screaming and died, proclaiming that the persecution of Christians would end and that she would become the keeper of the Earth of Siracuse. It’s amazing! Thanks to the last act, Lucia became famous as a holy, healing diseases of the throat. She is also sometimes called the patroness of glass workers and eye diseases, since her name means “light”.”

Person – “Juno”

Fuka: “The person who replaced Lucia is Juno, sister and wife of the Roman god Jupiter. Another reading of the name “Juno” – “Juno”, from which the word “June” came. The reason why the brides marrying in June is called “June brides” (June Bride) is that Juno is the guardian of the June. By the way, it may seem that Juno has nothing to do with Lucia until her awakening, but this is not so. In addition to the fact that Juno is the keeper of the hearth, she is also known as the keeper of the birth, in this case she is called “Juno-Lusia”.”

Person – “Palladium”

Aigis: “I represent my initial person – Palladium. Palladium – God from inorganic matter, which corresponds to me, the car. During the Trojan War, known for the legend of the Trojan horse, there was a statue of Athena, which the Trojans worshiped in the Church of Athens, and this statue was called Palladium. Some traditions say a statue as a simple treasure, without any description of its forms and outlines, and in others – as a flame or the spirit of fire that was placed in the temple. The design of my person is a statue of Athena. The history of the Trojan War says that the decisive factor in the defeat of Troy was that the city gate was opened by the trick of a wooden horse and the temple of Palladium was taken. This is a very dubious story.”

Person – “Athena”

Aigis: “I was a simple inorganic creature, like a statue of Palladium from a myth, but now there is a little human in me, and the person of Palladium turns into Athena. Athena is so well known that there is no need to talk a lot about her. In Greek mythology, it is revered as the goddess of war and wisdom, and is also known as the goddess of art, shipbuilding and architecture. However, the history of her birth may not fully know. She is quite exciting. The goddess Metis concealed the child from Zeus, but it was predicted that this child would capture the power of his father. Frightened by this, Zeus swallowed the mestizo. It was madness. Zeus for a long time could not get rid of a headache and asked another god to crush his head with an ax. Whatever it hurts, it was not the end. So was born Athena, dressed in armor. No matter how old this story is, the plot still has a place to be.”

Person – “Polydevk”

Akihiko: “My person, Polydevk, also the Greek God. But I don’t think this name is well known to you. But if you know the constellations well, then you should hear about the twin brothers, one of whom is the name of Polluks. The only difference is that Polluks is a Latin reading, and Polydevk is Greek. Polydevk was the son of Zeus, the Great God, and the Leda, the queen of Sparta, he was endowed with immortality inherent in the gods. Polydevk may be most famous in mythology due to its role in the expedition of the Argonauts. They say that when the Bibrix visited the Argo expedition, Polydevka successfully defeated the king, who beat the travelers before his death in a duel. When his brother died in battle, the immortal polydevka, complaining about his divine blood and the inability to die, asked Zeus to turn them with his brother into a constellation. This is a very piercing story, is it so?”

Person – “Caesar”

Akihiko: “Caesar is the name of Guy Julia Caesar, the Roman military and statesman of the 1st century BC. If you are confused, try to pronounce it in English. You have already heard the name Julia Caesar, isn’t it? The name “Caesar” subsequently became a word that means “ruler”, which made it the perfect person for the emperor Arcana. There is no connection with Polydevka before his awakening, but a huge robot became the design of the design. According to the designer, Mr. Sojima, the person is actually huge, although he could not realize this on the screen. You can assume that this is a shadow on your chest, about the same size as mine. As for me, I would love to saddle the giant Caesar and beat the shadow to half a target.”

Person – “Pentesile”

Mitsuru: “First of all, I would like to say something. My person’s name is pentesiles, not pandeliness! I think you will be offended if I be mistaken here and there. This is a great chance for you to remember her name. Like Palladion from Egida, Pentesiley – the character of the Trojan War, the Queen of the Amazons, the country where only women lived, she appears as reinforcements for the Trojan army. She appears with 12 women-warriors and fiercely pursues the Greek army, but the victory is decided when the hero of Achilles enters the enemy camp. The queen and its 12 warriors die. However, when Achilles took off her helmet and saw his face, he regretted that he killed her. What did he do! There is a legend that the Amazons cut off their right chest so that it does not prevent them from pulling onions. Echoes of these legends can still be seen in the design of the person.”

Person – “Artemisia”

Mitsuru: “The name” Artemisia “has two possible origin. Firstly, Artemisia, Queen of Galicarnas, the famous warrior who defeated the Greek fleet in the Persian wars. They say that she joined the Greek expedition. She was a rather wayward woman, so to speak. Another origin is the worship of Artemis (the goddess of hunting), about which Pentesilei previously spoke, as well as an aspect of gaining Artemis forces. The Amazons were hunters, so they worshiped the goddess Artemis. Artemis is also the goddess of the moon and sometimes equates to Diana in Roman mythology.”

Person – “Nemesis”

Ken: “My person is Nemesis. She is the goddess of Greek mythology. I am a little ashamed, since in the main story it looks unsightly, but she is the goddess of revenge, which suits me more than anything else. And the mother of Nemesis in mythology is Nyukta, the goddess of the night. It’s not so easy to accept, is it so? But initially Nemesis did not mean the revenge of man to man, but was a heavenly punishment that the gods appointed man. At that time, I had thoughts to take revenge on Aragaki-san and say: “This is the heavenly punishment!”No, we were so young then … Yes, there is another aspect of Nemesis as a god: it calms and heals an vengeful spirit. This interpretation suits me. By the way, therefore, some people do not understand why I am a bearer of a person, and mythical Nemesis is a goddess. But you can’t make a mistake here, is it so?”

Person – “Kalanemi”

Ken: “Nemesis showed her true power, turning into Kalanemi. This name may seem unfamiliar to many. The employee responsible for the project said: “You can’t even find his name on the Internet!»This is a deity whose name can only be found in special books. This is an old Hindu god, also known as Kalanemi. The name sounds a little like Nemesis, isn’t it? In fact, he is so old that the names of other gods came from him in Greek mythology, besides Nemesis. His name means “external circle of time” or “external circle of heavenly sphere”, and he is responsible for reincarnation and karma. They say that it was the last meaning that was an inspiration to create a feces of Kala Nami from a person similar to a planetarium. According to another interpretation, “feces” means “black” (as in Daikokuten 3d Mahakala’s Kala), and “Nemi” means “holy place, holy forest”, which can also be understood as “related to the Holy Black Forest”. All this is a little confused, isn’t it?”

Person – “Cerberus”

Koromaru: *dog barking *

Aigis: “Well, Mr. Koromaro wants to talk, but cannot keep in touch, so I will translate. Cerberus, as you know, is a famous monster in Greek mythology. In general, it is known as a dog with three heads and a snake tail, but the “Book of Gods” of Hesiod says that he has as many as 50 heads. It is useful to remember that he has many goals. He has a brother named Ortros, who was born from Typhon and Echidna. This brother is also known in the MEGATEN series. Unlike his brother Cerberus, his brother Ortros has two heads.”

Person – “Castor”

Aragaki: “I took a break in the main story, but then I returned for a short while. My castor is an analogue of the person of Aki, which is Polydevk. He is the older brother of the constellation Gemini, but, unlike his brother, did not inherit any divine forces. However, he was a skilled rider, and it is precisely because of this that my character is shown on horseback. In addition, in the chest of the person, the sword was wonzen, there is a little -known fact about this. Once the brothers Castor and Polydevk quarreled with their cousins ​​Idas and Linke. Castor died of a stone abandoned by his brother. But thanks to the divine force, Polydevk could not die. This sword personified the fate of Castor, but he also suggested my own fate. It’s good that Aki did not say: “We will be constellations together!”. No, serious. “

Person – “Medea”

Chidori: “I don’t get a lot to talk a lot, but … I’ll try. Medea is the name of the princess from Colchis, which can be found in Greek mythology in the episode of the Argonauts expedition. She is also the most famous wizard in Greek mythology. Her life comes down when she falls in love with Jason, captain of the Argonauts of the expedition in Argo, who arrived to steal the treasure of Colchis – the Golden Fleece. Medea betrayed her father and gave the golden fleece to Jason, she killed her own brother and threw his limbs into the sea (she ran away while her father cried and collected her son’s limbs). Tsar Pelius refused to give in power to Jason, and Medea deceived the daughters of Pelia to cook his father to death. And the new wife of Jason, who was tired of her, she burned with her father … Oh, how many terrible things have been done. She is not at all like me, she is a witch who allows her emotions to prevail over herself, but the fact that she appears as a person says that there are still some similarities … “

Person – “Hypnos”

Such: “This is my person – Hypnos. In Greek mythology, he is depicted as a child of the queen of the night of Nyukta, and we can say that this person is really compatible with me. In mythology, he is considered the god of sleep, but at that time it was believed that sleep is always next to death. So, I think this is a nuukta child and brother Tanatos. Therefore, that in the design of the person looks like wings, based on the idea of ​​the peripheral nervous system. There is an opinion that a dream is necessary to relieve stress. In other words, the god of sleep is> the god of stress, so the nervous system was added to the design, which visually indicates stress. When you look at hypnos with such a thought, does this not make your heart tremble?”

Person – “Moros”

Gin: “Moros is the son of Nyukta, as well as Hypnos in Takaya. He is called the god of retaliation, he is responsible for fate, death and similar things. In addition, do you know this cool leader? Tanatos used by this guy, his brother, who is also a god. And if you are interested in why it looks so mechanical, then this is only because I am a geek in this area. He also shows that the fate of death is mechanical and inevitable. Rather deep subtext, isn’t it so?”
