Dec. 12th, 2012 07:08 pmCharacter: Yu Narukami
Series: Persona 4
Character Age: 17
Canon: A former city boy moves to a rural Japanese town suddenly plagued by a string of horrific and unsolvable murders upon his arrival. Since the police are stumped in their investigation, the duty of solving the mystery falls on a group of ordinary high schoolers who awaken the power of “Persona,” or the personified apparition of their inner selves that are used to battle enemies. Together, they learn about friendship, acceptance, and understanding.
There's no one better to tell you about understanding than our protagonist, the aforementioned city boy, Yu Narukami. Everyone he's met can give you at least one example of something he's done for them. Comforting a grieving old woman? Got it covered. Need confidence to play in the school band? He's on top of it. In fact, he's quite popular for the new boy in town, though his air of cool doesn't come without odd quirks. Sometimes he's chowing down on endless meat bowls and falling into a void he calls "the Meat Dimension,” taking odd-jobs to make some extra cash, or making friends with a fox. For all of the stake everyone has in him, he's a simple guy. Calm and level-headed, he’s reliable as they come, and ever the calm in the storm with a deadpan sense of humor. From his perspective, nothing can stop his steady path toward the truth.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
I remember this--it's like being in front of the class and introducing myself. It’s all right, I’m used to it. I’ve done it a million times before.
I'm Yu Narukami, seventeen years old. I’ve just transferred in from the city, but I've always liked the quieter, smaller towns. Even the ones with tentacle monsters. Ah, though I guess that’s usually part of the script, but it does sound pretty flawless, doesn’t it? I’ll pencil it in. You know, for a summer camp, this looks nice. It’s a contrast from the life I’m used to. I'm still in high school, but I'm pretty good at keeping up with part-time jobs, so you can always let me know if you need something done. There has to be a lot of work that a summer camp calls for. I’ll try anything once, and I make a pretty mean omelette and rice.
Why are you joining our happy community?
Oh, I heard you had a dinosaur so I volunteered myself. Though that’s not the only interesting thing here. I can't wait to head down to the arts and crafts hut to make some macaroni art. I have a talent for arranging colored noodles. But the part that really drew me here … is the Director herself. Someone said that she's still investigating a murder that happened four years ago, and that she's holding people here hostage. It seems a little far-fetched the a summer camp is being used as a cover for undetermined detention, but I’ve seen stranger. A lot stranger. I had to see it for myself.
If there was a good dog and a criminal both hanging from a cliff and you could only save one, which would you save and why?
I know a lot about saving people, and some will tell you that you can’t save everyone, but they’re wrong. You just have to find a way to do it. I won’t be responsible for letting someone go, I’d save them both.
If you could get away with committing one crime and suffer absolutely no consequences, what would you do and why?
I’d control the steak distribution and take over the world.
Do you have a five year plan in mind?
No, not really. My parents move around a lot, so it's hard to settle into anything. They have their jobs and it really broadens my horizons. There's a lot of people I wouldn't have met without moving around. So, I guess I'll keep going and I'll hit the place where I'm supposed to be eventually. I’m not worried about it. This place might be just what I need. That or I’ll become the paper crane folding champion of the world.
What is your job here at CFUD? What do you think that means?
It’s not a job, it’s just something I do. I’ll find the truth, no matter what it takes.
