General Information

Profile

Just recently having moved from out in the country, Taiki has been raised in an older shrine in the mountains for much of his life. Not really all that used to socializing with other people his own age, he's mainly been around older monks and priests, and generally tends to be a bit more laid back due to the slower pace of life out in the sticks. He was introduced to the| Persona game at a young age, as one of his mentors believed that it would help to open his awareness to the spiritual world around him. While trained as a shrine priest for most of his life, Taiki has also struggled with his relative isolation, having few people his own age around for company and little in the way of modern conveniences. After several years of nagging, the priests have consented to allow him to travel to the city in order to finish out his education.

Resonance

Taiki's resonance appears as a faint aura of red flame around his body. It gives off a faint feeling of warmth and radiance to those who can feel resonance that way. There is always the faint sound of a fire crackling from his presona burning away in his soul, and for those who can detect Persona's by scent there is always a faint hint of cinnamon in the air around Taiki - unless he gets upset, in which case it changes to a much more pungent aroma of brimstone.

Taiki's resonance has been described as 'comforting' by several people for the sense of warmth and security it puts out.
