IC Information
Character Name: Fuuka Yamagishi
Character Canon: Persona 3 Portable, female track
Character Age/Gender: 17/Female
Canon Point: Right after the death of Minako Arisa.
Character Canon History: http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Fuuka_Yamagishi
Character Personality: Born to strict parents who felt inferior to their more financially successful family, Fuuka was pushed to be the perfect child; obedient, seen and not heard, polite, and of course to excel in school. Having no other options but be everything they wanted, she struggled to please them, being told how disappointed they were when she fell short. Not having the will or desire to rebel against them, Fuuka would simply bow her head, promising to do better.
By the time she reached junior high, her inability to stand up to her parents transferred into her being unable to speak up in class. Since her one motivator was to do well in school to ensure her parents love, she took no time to make friends. Besides polite small talk, Fuuka was completely out of her element when it came to interacting with others. She would watch girls whispering and giggling in the hallways, finding herself wishing she was one of them. In fact, she found herself wishing she was just about anyone else but herself. So, when she wasn't studying books, she was studying her classmates, learning more about them than they would have thought.
Due to her quiet nature and lack of friends, Fuuka became an easy target for bullies, and remained so up until her last years of high school. They would hide her shoes, leave her rude notes, tease her about her hair, her good grades, her stutter, anything and everything they could think of. In the beginning, she often went home crying, sometimes begging her parents not to make her go. But they never listened, telling her 'buck up' and focus on her work. It was in this time that the seed of determination was planted in her, though she wouldn't realize it for a long time.
Fuuka became accustomed to the bullying, shutting down whenever it happened and keeping her head down. Her new method also gave her a new insight into the individuals around her; she began to realize that they weren't bullying her because of anything she did. It was because of something going on within them, that they needed to hurt someone else to feel better. They didn't know how to handle someone different than them, or even doing better than them. By the end of her junior high years, though it hurt, she forgave the ones bullying her. She even wrote everyone in her class a farewell letter at graduation. They needed the kind words more than she did, she decided.
Despite her growing compassion, and slow burning determination to excel, her self confidence was almost non-existent. Between her ever increasingly critical parents and near constant bullying, Fuuka sometimes wondered what she was living for. When the bullying started anew in high school, she found her old method of 'turning the other cheek' to be wearing thin. Especially when the bullying sometimes became physical; nothing serious, but enough to make her lie to her parents about bruises on her arms and legs. Though she continued to be top of her class, she began skipping school to avoid the bullies. At the peak of it all, she was locked in the gym overnight by a group of girls, becoming trapped in another dimension that housed monsters. Due to a power she had no idea about, she was able to sense them and avoid them before being rescued by a group of teenagers called SEES.
After that, they convinced her to join their team, an opportunity she jumped on immediately. Someone finally thought she was worthwhile just for being who she was. She worked hard to prove herself to them, at first acting more how she had observed others acting then actually being herself. But as time went on she began proving herself to be a big help and started making friends with them. She finally realized her worth. She even became good friends with one of her former bullies.
Though she never actually fought the monsters, she aided her friends by telling them the weaknesses of the shadows, healing them, and sensing where the next big boss was. She had finally found a purpose that made her feel worth while. But at the end of the year, the leader of their group, one of her dear friends, sacrificed herself for them all. Having derived confidence from her, Fuuka was devastated. If it had not been for her new sense of confidence and more positive view on life, she probably would not have made it through. She has done everything she can to keep her other friends together as they are all she has left.
More confident in herself from a year ago, she has a stronger sense of who she is and what she wants. She now strives to do well in school because SHE wants it, not because of her parents. Her cooking, though still not a strong suite, has improved, thanks to help from Minako and Shinjiro. Sure, it's bland for the most part, but she continues to work hard at it. In all things, Fuuka now pursues her own dreams and ambitions, understanding that doing anything else would be hurting herself. She is still deeply compassionate towards everyone around her, but no longer lets that compassion overrule her sense of self worth. Gone are the days of the girl who would bow her head and let others walk over her. Now she stands up for herself and others...granted it still gives her terrible stomach butterflies.
After Minako's death, she became very attuned to everyone's grief. She does her best to comfort everyone in some small way, sometimes forgetting to care for herself. Though she has pushed passed most of her insecurities and self loathing, tucking her needs away is a hard habit to break. Especially when she sees how much others have lost, not just in SEES but in their families. Her main struggle now is to find a balance between her deep caring of others and her new found self love.
AU Information: Female path in Persona 3 Portable. Fuuka starts a cooking club of which she is the only member, until Minako joins a short time later. Being a terrible cook, Fuuka needs a lot of guidance, of which Minako was willing to give. The two spent many days after school cooking various foods, with Fuuka slowly improving her skills thanks to Minako. She ends up greatly admiring the SEES leader, finding her own confidence after Minako begins to coax it out of her.
Along with Minako, their team mate Shinjiro, showed Fuuka some tips on how to cook. It was a struggle, but Fuuka learned a lot from him. She contributes all of her current cooking prowess--small though it may be--to her two friends.
Character Abilities: She is able to summon a creature known as a persona called Juno, to detect enemy weaknesses, as well as the whereabouts of almost anyone, given Fuuka has some information about them. She also used Juno to fully heal her friends if they were in trouble, even though she was far away; this also meant she was able to communicate to them through Juno.
Before she realized her powers, she had almost a sixth sense, able to feel the presence of creatures called Shadows and avoid them. In a way, she is somewhat psychic, though not in the typical way most people think of.
A computer whiz, she has a way with technology, able to create various mechanisms on her own. Quite fond of taking things apart and putting them back together, she has a knack for repairs, though it's not something she speaks of often.

-Envoker (looks like a gun, and is used to summon her persona, Juno)

The new world Fuuka found herself in passed before her in a blur as she sat on a park bench. She stared blankly ahead, her hands folded on her lap; to a passerby she might appear to be admiring a nearby tree. But internally she was a wreck, her mind a whirlwind of everything that had occurred in the last twenty-four hours. One moment she had been mourning the loss of a dear friend, the next she and Junpei were swept away to a world where said friend was alive. Alive. Save, unharmed, and cheerful as ever.
Thinking about Minako, she closed her eyes, feeling the tears begin to swell up again. She still couldn't believe this was real. It had to be some kind of dream, or trick being played on them. Especially after everything else she had seen; two young men who knew her and Junpei, touching kept everyone charged, no way to contact anyone at home. Wiping at her eyes, she let out a soft sigh, unsure of which needed to be addressed first.
"They're all vastly important..." she said quietly, rubbing her hands together before resting her face in them. Perhaps she shouldn't have wandered off on her own. At least if she had stayed to talk with Junpei, they could figure something out together. She thought about looking for Minako...but it was too soon. She was part of the mystery of this place! Slowly standing, Fuuka smoothed out her skirt, and began the walk back to where Junpei and she were staying.
'I can't do this alone,' she thought, wiping away fresh tears that threatened to roll down her face.
