Character: Sanada Akihiko.
Series: Persona 3.
Age: 18.
Canon: There's a hidden hour between one day and the next - the Dark Hour. During the Dark Hour, monsters called Shadows thrive in their nest, sometimes even crawling out to attack innocents. Persona 3 focuses on a group of students who are a part of a student organization known as S.E.E.S. at their school, Gekkoukan High. This group has the ability to summon Personas - their inner selves, chock full of various abilities - to fight this threat and unravel the mystery lurking behind the existence of the Shadows.
Sanada Akihiko is one such member. As an upperclassman, he's one of the veterans of the group and makes it his job to offer the underclassmen advice and generally be a helping hand in the group. Akihiko is fiercely dedicated to honing his skills and training to become a better and stronger fighter. To put it simply, the boy is just a little obsessed! But despite his obsession, Akihiko is dedicated to his friends and devotes himself wholly to protecting people, particularly those around him. However, when it comes to social situations, Akihiko is sort of clueless. After a failed attempt to pick up girls with his teammates, he ends up "training" with pick-up lines - not to actually get a girl, but to compete with a fellow teammate and show that he totally doesn't fail at this sort of thing. Really!
Note: all Persona users in P3 use gun-like items called "evokers" to summon their Personas by shooting themselves in the head.

Alright, everyone gather around and listen up. With me helping all of you out, this won't take that long, I promise. You're all here today as a part of a student outreach program that this camp has with Gekkoukan High. I'm Sanada Akihiko, and it's my job to train you guys as honorary S.E.E.S. members and get you fit for duty. ... at least, that's what I'd planned on saying, but no one ever mentioned to me that this was an outreach program for gorillas. Not that it's unheard of for animals to carry the potential to fight Shadows, but this is a little unorthodox. That, and I'm not sure the armbands I brought are actually going to fit any of you.
But hey, if you guys are here and willing to work, then I'll train each and every one of you. I know that discovering your abilities so suddenly can be a lot to take in at first, but if you have any questions about it, feel free to ask me. I've been through this before myself, so I know how it feels. I'll warn you now, though - the training I'll make you guys go through won't be easy. There'll definitely be a lot of sweat, blood, tears, and- yes, you in the back? ... No, "Eye of the Zombie" won't be a part of this training regiment, no matter how "catchy" you guys think it is. And even if it were, we'd just ... stick to the song, not the actual eye of a zombie. Put that thing down already! You have have no idea where that thing's even been.
You guys are easily distracted, huh. Is there something wrong? Nerves? I know how stressful it can get, with the whole idea that the fate of this camp may rest on your shoulders. But don't worry - you're in good hands with me. So no matter how stupid you may think your problem is, you can talk with me about it. That's what I'm here for and as your upperclassman, you can ask me for advice about anything. ... As long as it's actually relevant to what we're doing. Guys, come on, I know you may think the job sounds "cool," but you're here to fight and protect people, not err ... to "go cruising." I haven't even seen a single car since I got here anyway, so you might as well forget about it right now. And no, picking up girls won't do you much good, either. You guys are, what, at least 400 lbs each? The average girl weighs only 135 lbs, so that wouldn't help you in your training.
How about we do this? Before we go any further with discussing your training regiment, let's go ahead and issue your equipment. The most important thing you'll need when fighting the Shadows is an evoker. By using it, your evoker will allow you to unlock the potential of your Persona by opening a direct window to your mind when you shoot it at your head. Luckily for us, this camp had enough foresight to provide us with evokers for everyone - standard issue when people arrive, from what I've heard. They're a bit longer than usual but with the average height in your group being at least seven feet, I think you'll find the length more beneficial in the end. ... hey, what's the matter? Guys, come on, don't give me that look - I know what I'm talking about here. Are those nerves getting to all of you again? Forget about them! Everyone grab an evoker and let's get to work, because this training session is going to be intense.
