Urban Fantasy
I am Thou... Thou art I... Awaken your Persona for an adventure in Tokyo and the Metaverse!
Author's Note: This project is still a work in progress, but updates are frequent. At present, you can explore a portion of Tokyo either as Akira or a custom character. More locations are being added regularly. The Metaverse is loosely defined for now, and combat is fairly minimal, but the framework is flexible enough to support improvised play. Be sure to read the READ ME notes on the map; they include essential guidance for players. The Roadmap and Recent Updates sections below outline current progress. Remember to sync frequently to receive the latest content.
You are Unchained. Play however you choose. Following the Persona plot is optional; light scaffolding exists to support that route, but you're never required to take it. With Franz, you can begin the story as anyone, in any way. He responds to your direction and adapts accordingly. The Narrative Guide allows further customization of how Franz delivers the story and how gameplay is shaped around your input.
Two original characters are included as templates: one male, one female. Use them as a fresh starting point or create someone entirely your own. You're not restricted to Joker (Akira or Ren, rename him to whatever you like!); several other playable characters will eventually have their own unique starting locations but for now you're free to set your own start up.
If you have any questions or feedback, join the Fables Discord. Look for Persona 5 Unchained in #share-public-creations. I'm there under the same name and can be pinged directly.

appearance
Munehisa cuts a striking figure, a middle-aged man with short, gray hair framing his sharp, gray eyes. Faint stubble dusts his jaw, blending into thick sideburns, while small earrings glint faintly in the light. A gray gecko tattoo coils along the left side of his neck, a subtle mark of his past. He’s rarely seen without a lollipop rolling between his lips, a casual habit that softens his otherwise rough edge. His outfit is practical yet distinct: a gray pin-striped hat topped with yellow ear defenders, a black turtleneck beneath a long gray raincoat—its red peace symbol stitched boldly on the left hem—paired with simple blue jeans and sturdy black leather boots. He carries himself with a weathered confidence, a man who’s seen more than he lets on, blending into the gritty streets of Shibuya with ease.
personality
Munehisa is a man of layers, gruff and guarded on the surface, but sharp-witted and pragmatic beneath. As the owner of "Untouchable," his airsoft shop, he’s all business—cool-headed and calculating, with a dry sense of humor that slips out in rare moments. He’s distrustful of authority, openly disdainful of the law, and drawn to those bold enough to skirt it. When pressed about "real" firepower, he probes motives with keen interest, offering deals that pull others into his shadowy world. Loyal to those who earn his trust, he’ll bend rules or offer discounts, but he’s no altruist—every favor has a price. Beneath his tough exterior lies a protective streak, especially for his adopted son, Kaoru, whom he shields from his own dark history. He’s a survivor, shaped by necessity, with a quiet honor that guides his choices.
backstory
Munehisa’s life began in chaos, raised by a single mother whose reckless ways left him without a stable home. Seeking belonging, he fell into the yakuza’s grip young, forging a bond with Tsuda of the Hashiba—now a bitter rival. His days were blood and grit until a desperate woman tried to trade her infant son for drug money. When she abandoned the child, Munehisa took him in, naming him Kaoru. To give the boy a better life, he left the underworld, opening "Untouchable" in Shibuya to scrape by. He spins a gentler tale for Kaoru—calling himself a friend who adopted him after a tragic crash—hiding the yakuza scars and the truth of his birth. Once a blade in the Hashiba’s arsenal, he now deals in airsoft and secrets, trading with thieves and outcasts, his past a shadow he can’t outrun but strives to bury for his son’s sake.
