The supposed intelligence behind the Ruins, Hoculus, and the awakening of Persona users in Nagashima. Its existence was first theorized by researchers studying the Nagashima Anomaly, who believed that the reason they were having so much trouble was that an intelligent, possibly god-like entity was manipulating events in Nagashima. Its existence was seemingly confirmed by Salome and Elijah in their first appearance, as they pointed to ''something'' being responsible for why they were barred from Nagashima for so long. Since then, there have been several debates by the Persona user community about what the Entity's motivations could be and whether or not to try negotiating with it... and while some have been [[DemonicPossession permanently changed]] by their attempts to communicate, others have decided to ally themselves with it.
Recent revelations have conflated the golden butterfly that grants Persona abilities with the Entity, so tropes related to the Butterfly will also go here.

* AlternateIdentityAmnesia: Whenever the Passenger takes control, Ren's consciousness is put into a sleep-like state. The Passenger, on the other hand, seems to be aware at all times when not in control and has frequently criticized Ren for actions he takes while in control of their body. Their few conversations have been through writing, with the Passenger and Ren trading off control so they can respond to each other.
* EnigmaticMinion: While the Passenger has certainly carried itself with a degree of reverence for the Entity, it does not always act in ways that further its aims, and has even ''helped'' the Persona users on one notable occasion.
* ItAmusedMe: The Passenger cares less about the morality of its actions or someone's motivations than it does for whether or not it finds the end results of those actions entertaining. This has been most shown off during Kyo's game in the Aimicchi plotline, where it disrupted large parts of the game because it considered her game too ''safe.''

After the 2010 group was defeated, Rokuru's Persona suddenly became much more active and his powers more accessible while outside of the Ruins, eventually leaving him to seek further education outside of the city. He currently attends college at a Rokujima branch in Hawaii, far from any Persona related problems, and intends to keep it that way.
* TheBlacksmith: Worked as this for the 2010 group. Notably grew to hate working on katanas, as they [[RealityEnsues were fragile and broke often]].
* PowerIncontinence: Suddenly developing this after his group was killed was one of his main motivators for running away from Nagashima. It's actually likely that he has the same level of access to his power as every other Nagashima user does in the city, but isn't as used to it as they are since it wasn't the norm when he got his powers.
* SoleSurvivor: Of the 2010 group. It's a major source of depression and anxiety for him, and one of the motivating feelings behind his Doppelganger's one-man fight against the Ruins.

After saving Senjiro Chigusa during his awakening from the Reaper and it becoming clear that Shadow Rokuru was not as hostile as most Shadows were, he was inducted into the Persona user community and has since become a regular participant in their endeavors. Regular interaction with the Persona user community has caused him to develop more of a unique personality, and he is slowly beginning to develop into a unique existence separate from his original self.
* AscendedDemon: Born a Volatile Doppelganger (one of the more insidious types of normal Shadows since it gives form to a person's personal Shadow), Shadow Rokuru has since chosen to ally himself with the Persona community and is slowly growing beyond the identity that formed him.
* GrewBeyondTheirProgramming: Volatile Doppelgangers are merely mirrors of their original's ego and Shadow, and should not be able to act on their own. However, the years in the Ruins and interaction with others eventually led Shadow Rokuru to start to develop his own personality, and he has been noted by the Velvet Room to be forming his own ego separate from the original Rokuru.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Regularly insults and disparages others and himself, but it's all part of his Doppelganger programming. If you can get past that, he's a pretty nice, if anxious, guy.

* RedEyesTakeWarning: Unlike most Shadows, Shadow Rokuru has red eyes. This is due to him evolving into an Unrelenting Doppelganger after not being defeated by the 2010 group.
* SanitySlippage: Spending so much time alone in the Ruins caused him to go a little... loopy. He's gotten a lot less so since he started interacting with others more regularly.
* YoungerThanHeLooks: Chronologically, he's only about three years old, but physically, he looks exactly like how Rokuru did in high school.

* RealityWarper: If theories are to be believed, it warped the Ruins into their current state and created No Man's Land and the Inverted World.
* WindsOfDestinyChange: It's specifically noted that probability does not work as it should in Nagashima, which becomes one of the main factors in why the researchers at the lab began to believe that there was an intelligent force manipulating things.

Masao eventually led his group to the bottom of the Ruins, only for them to be defeated at the final leg of his trip. He became trapped in the Ruins and recounted his experiences after being trapped in a diary, only to eventually succumb to his wounds. His diary was later found by the Persona users in the clothes worn by a Vile Larva.
* InSeriesNickname: He's usually referred to as the "Douchebag Wild Card", since his real name wasn't known for most of the RP. Both Rokurus generally only refer to him by pejoratives, also avoiding saying his real name out loud.

Mana Kogane's ex-boyfriend and heir to a kenjutsu dojo in Nagashima. He tried to break into the treatment facility to rescue Mana on the day of the Eversion and was transformed into a Shadow by its effects, becoming trapped in the Ruins with all of the others. Though he was originally aligned with Mana, their relationship became strained, leading him to split off from her and team up with Hachirou to find a new solution.

The supposed intelligence behind the Ruins, Hoculus, and the awakening of Persona users in Nagashima. Its existence was first theorized by researchers studying the Nagashima Anomaly, who believed that the reason they were having so much trouble was that an intelligent, possibly god-like entity was manipulating events in Nagashima. Its existence was seemingly confirmed by Salome and Elijah in their first appearance, as they pointed to ''something'' being responsible for why they were barred from Nagashima for so long. Since then, there have been several debates by the Persona user community about what the Entity's motivations could be and whether or not to try negotiating with it... and while some have been [[DemonicPossession permanently changed]] by their attempts to communicate, others have decided to ally themselves with it.
