Group 3: Heliodor, Ruby, Sapphire, Jasper

The room you find yourself in is a bit odd. It's clearly just a white tent with a table and chairs in the middle; on the table is a single picture book. But the walls of the tent have been sloppily painted to look like a room, a bookcase painted on one wall, a bed, a basket of apples. The paint seems wet, elements dripping and blurring into each other and the ground below.

. . . A "protective" toy? Are these things alive?

I assume they'd be alive for the duration of the game at least.

Cool. I don't get this, "can't be just any toy but can be too" thing, though.

It's a special toy. But it can be like any toy we want.
glorious: Van smiling and not looking particularly sinister (pleased)

That's what I assume it means as well. We'll need to consider how we want our toy to be special, but we don't have to limit ourselves on what it may be.

Star thinks something like blocks would be good. Something that can change its shape by combining with others. Star's thinking something like...

[Glances through the catalog, and points to... this.]

Like this, we've got a lot of ways to change depending on how things go. ...Need to find what makes it special and what makes it bad, if we go for that, though.

[...nods.]

I don't believe I've seen building blocks like those before but I can see how it would be useful...Though I do think given the Persona in question and what the story may entail, we'd want to consider the emotional aspect of the toy to the main character as well. The young man on Heliodor thinks something soft may be best for that...

Is there a toy that's soft but still capable of changing its shape?

...Hm. Think there are some, yeah... Something like this, then?

[Scanning, and... here.]

It's soft, and can change its shape. It can get hard too, but it's hard to make it soft again once it gets hard. Think there's a way to do it, though.

? What do you mean?

[Let me think a bit...]

Worst case, we just get one color, Star thinks. Probably a better option than the blocks in that case.

Look at the example we were given. This is meant to be a companion.
