* In ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}'', Rise is going to flirt with you. A lot. More than any of the other girls. Even if you turn down her romance.

* In ''VideoGame/Persona4Arena'', it is revealed that, since the end of ''[[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} The Answer]]'', ''every single thing'' [[spoiler:Elizabeth]] has done is for the sole purpose of working towards the goal of saving [[spoiler:the P3 protagonist]] from [[AndIMustScream his ultimate fate.]] Keep in mind that this self-imposed task is, by all logic, [[ImpossibleTask practically impossible to achieve]].[[labelnote:explanation(MASSIVE P3 SPOILERS)]][[spoiler: Basically, as long as [[EldritchAbomination Erebus]] is around, the protagonist cannot be saved. Erebus [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu can be defeated]], but it will [[ResurrectiveImmortality simply pop up again on its own]], as it is the [[AnthropomorphicPersonification collective shadow of mankind born of the desperation brought about by life's trials]]--essentially, it's ''[[HiveMind humanity's]]'' [[HiveMind shadow]]. Therefore, [[AsLongAsThereIsEvil as long as there exists a considerable number of humans who yearn for death, even if subconsciously,]] the protagonist must [[BarrierMaiden remain the Great Seal]] to prevent Erebus from touching Nyx and causing TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt.]][[/labelnote]] Also keep in mind that it has already been ''three years'' since [[spoiler:Elizabeth]] came to this resolution. That said, this devotion has, among many other things, led her to make an annual tradition of [[spoiler:''[[OneHitKill one-shotting]]'' ''an EldritchAbomination'' just to make it leave the protagonist alone in peace for a while.]]

What defines this LoveInterest is the single minded devotion that is given to him. Even though she might not be the most attractive, wealthy, or interesting female in the group, her devotees will often discard any and all advances made by other women, up to and including [[AManIsNotAVirgin no-strings-attached sex]]. Alternate takes are lovers who had to leave the girl for "her own good," often amid tons of {{Wangst}}. But he will always be in their hearts, and none of their attempts to move on can possibly succeed. Prone to have a HopelessSuitor, DoggedNiceGuy, or maybe even a StalkerWithACrush.
