Profile
A third-year at Seven Sisters High, Tohya has a pretty bad reputation. Her grades are terrible, she breaks rules as a matter of course, and she rarely stays long after classes let out. She doesn't even have a friendly personality to make up for it--in fact, she's widely known for being very cold-mannered, even outright mean. Her major claim to fame, in fact, is that and the fact that she was kidnapped in her first year. To all appearances, she's just one of those cautionary tales about what /not/ to do. And yet, lately some of that has been changing. Sure, she's still ready with a cutting comment for anyone who slips up or looks at her too hard, but she's been spending more time after school actually at the school, and she's involved with some new youth outreach program. Beneath all the questions about how just someone can care so little about their future when they're in their last year of high school, though, lie a young woman who is deeply thoughtful and very troubled.

- Akatsuki Enda: A senior at Gekkoukan High. Kyo's twin. He is definitely the good twin, and despite herself, Tohya actually thinks he's a pretty good guy. A Persona-user, but with a very different resonance, compared to his brother. Tohya has never once mixed them up. They talk a lot more than they used to; Tohya considers him a good friend, and works hard to make sure he isn't lost dealing with his brother.

- XIV - Temperance
- Miwa Saitou: A classmate at Seven Sisters High, Tohya didn't speak with her much before an incident involving a burning tree in the courtyard. She's basically wonderful, but she's entirely too polite, and she's rushing headlong into trouble with Kyo. Tohya isn't sure she'll ever listen as regards her choice of boyfriend, but she's made a promise to protect Miwa anyway. ...To her mild distress, though, it seems that Miwa doesn't like her being so rude all the time. A Persona-user. Tohya has agreed to let her up to see the clock tower again sometime.
- Naomi Suzuno: A second-year at Seven Sisters High. Fashionable and seemingly thoughtful, Tohya likes her despite herself, and is sure that there's more beneath the tranquil service.

More and more, Tohya has come to rely on Naomi, especially now that she's joined KNOWS.

- Takahisa Kandori: CEO of SEBEC, and Tohya's boss. At first, she was put off by him, but after getting to know him a little better, she's come to largely trust and actually kind of like him, understanding his insomnia and appreciating his love of cooking. She thinks he's wise, if kind of dangerous. Lately, though, he's been troubling her.

- XIX - The Sun
- Tatsuya Suou: A fellow senior at Seven Sisters. Cool, and as far as she can tell, pretty irresponsible and closed-off from everybody. Tohya isn't sure how to feel about him, but they don't seem to get along very well. She has a bit of respect for him despite this, not that she'll admit it. A Persona-user. Lately, she's agreed to work with him on helping to combat some of the troubles in Sumaru.

Persona

Resonance and Other Talents
Persephone's resonance is oppressively silent, and cold. Those especially sensitive to resonance will feel more: It calls to mind a feeling of being trapped deep underground, with no hope of escape. As a consequence, she's very noticeable to those who are skilled enough to detect the resonances of others. However, her strength of resonance goes both ways: Tohya's primary Persona power is detection. As such, she has a finely tuned 'sixth sense', noticing immediately the presence of all but very subtle Persona-users. She experiences this as a distinct 'feeling' of its own, bringing to mind location and a sort of an essential presence, rather than through any of her mundane senses. As a 'spotter', she can sense more than just other Personas, however: Shadows and even regular people are within her power to detect, but even stronger is her sense of direction. With Persephone's abilities, it is almost impossible for Tohya to lose her way, even in the darkest of places.
This means that she senses most Persona-users she meets as a matter of course, and she actually can't turn this power 'off'--though if she's too distracted, or there are too many things to sense at once, she'll miss things. Or people.
