Primary Weapon: Select your character's weapon of choice. Supports may mark this question as N/A.
Combat Style: Outline particular combat skills here, along with their attitude in battle. Are they gung-ho? Do they try to protect their teammates at risk of themselves? Do they try to let others do the heavy lifting? For support characters, this is how they handle their role and how they generally treat their team. Do they worry all the time? Are they quick to point out things, even if they're not a threat? Are they relaxed?
Attribute: Select the attribute that best defines your character's abilities: Strength, Stamina, Speed, or Balance! This will not impact bonuses but it it will impact narrative elements and dungeon navigation.
Persona Name: Please select an available Persona listed under your house.
Persona Appearance: Provide a brief description of your Persona.
Affinity: Select one of the two elements available to your character's house. This is the element that your character will be most proficient in attacking with and defending against. Swords may choose Air or Thunder, Cups may choose Water or Ice, Wands may choose Fire or Lightning, and Coins may choose Earth or Stone.
Weakness: Please select one of the elements not associated with your character's house. This will be the element that does the most damage against your character and their Persona.
Ailment Susceptibility: Select the mental or physical ailment that your character is particularly susceptible to: Poison, Sleep, Mute, Confusion, Enervation, Rage, Fear, Forget, Charm, and Despair. All characters may get all status ailments, but this will be the one most likely to impact the character. Keep in mind that a toned down version of the ailment may, at times, linger with the character for a few days after the initial exposure.

Squad Position: Medium
Primary Weapon: A double-ended drill lance and shield. Yes, it can actually whirl. It's very extra. (The first weapon he tried was the Cloud Strife Buster Sword that Irene had tossed into the weapons pile as a joke.)
Combat Style: Business in the front, party in the back. While Richie's very good at following gameplans, doesn't talk back, and treats dire situations with the appropriate gravity, if the flow of battle is clearly going in his squad's favor, he's prone to "Hey, Watch This!" moments of attempting to pull off flashy stunts that he's convinced will look totally badass.
Things that may or may not actually look badass and have questionable success rates include: trying to get Mitzrael to toss him into the middle of combat, trying to jump onto the back of a suitably large Shadow and ride it, and trying to ride Mitzrael and live up to his namesake via attempted crab jousting.
When fighting in earnest, Richie generally fills a protector role in combat, using his large shield to soak up blows or provide cover for others, willing to sacrifice his own body if it means keeping a teammate safe. With its extra reach, he can also use his lance to keep enemies at a distance or use it more aggressively for a proper stabbiness.
Notably, despite his obvious physical strength, Richie has a tendency to hold back on using it to its fullest potential.
Attribute: Stamina
Persona Name: Mitzrael
Persona Appearance: Mitzrael is a heroic yet whimsical Persona, evoking the imagery of a knight atop its noble steed conjured up by someone during a fever dream. The tall romantic figure of legends has been replaced with a still impressively armored, but squat and rotund frog (or is it a toad?) and the traditional white stallion has been eschewed in favor of a gigantic carbonized black crab. Glowing cracks and fissures spread throughout the crab's body and closer inspection of its face reveals that what looks to be a set of teeth is actually the front grill plate of a pot belly stove and the crab itself is apparently an automaton powered by burning coal. This isn't the only oddity about this immense crustacean as the pincers of its front claws are actually extremely large drill bits. [x]
When summoned, Mitzrael bursts forth from the ground as if it had just finished excavating its path of escape from the earth's core and when it attacks, it charges full tilt at its target, leaving a path of carbonized gemstones in its wake.
Affinity: Stone
Weakness: Water
Ailment Susceptibility: Charm
