A Little Note About Personae

So this is probably a bit obvious, but in each game, the personae are related to one another, meaning that they are from the same sort of mythology.

In Persona 3, the personae came from Greek mythology.

You had Orpheus, Hermes... those folks. Even the boss was Nyx and Erebus, who are also from Greek mythology, if I'm not mistaken.

The same goes for the personae of Persona 4. All of which are from Japanese mythology. Ameno Sagiri and Izanami too...

So keeping this in mind... I think that it would be fitting to create personae and boss characters from one "source" of mythology. I'm leaning towards Norse mythology at the moment, but that might change.

That's all for now.
