GENDER: Female.
ROLE: Battle; healing.
STARTER PERSONA: Io.
CURRENT PERSONA: Isis.
WEAPON TYPE: Bow & Arrow | Pierce.
OTHER: Father was a scientist who worked on most of the Kirijo Group's vile experiments. It's thanks to him that the Full Moon Shadows and the Dark Hour exist, as he halted an experiment. He would die in the process, along with most everyone else.
NAME: Junpei Iori
AGE: 16
GENDER: Male.
ROLE: Battle. Idiot
STARTER PERSONA: Hermes.
WEAPON TYPE: Two-handed swords | Slash.

MANUFACTURED: September 10th, 1999
GENDER: Female (android)
ROLE: Battle.
STARTER PERSONA: Palladion.
WEAPON TYPE: Guns | Pierce.
OTHER: Aigis is a mystery at best... for some reason, despite being enemies with Strega, she has shown a distaste of wanting to hurt Minato unless absolutely necessary. She is extremely protective of Minami as well.
NAME: Fuuka Yamagishi
AGE: 16
GENDER: Female.
ROLE: Tactical Support and Intelligence gathering.
STARTER PERSONA: Lucia.
CURRENT PERSONA: Juno.
WEAPON TYPE: N/A (doesn't fight)
OTHER: Her Persona is not capable of combat; rather, it gathers intelligence from a distance and allows her to communicate with other SEES members.
STREGA
PURPOSE: Team of Persona users entrenched in illegal activities that must take Persona Suppressants in order for their Personas not to kill them. Their main goal is the continuation of the Dark Hour, which puts them at odds with SEES. Koromaru and Ken are the exceptions to this rule.
Interesting note: "Strega" is "witch" in Italian.
Members
NAME: fractus_animus (Male Protagonist)
AGE: 17
GENDER: Male.
ROLE: Leader in all functions; hitman part-time.
STARTER PERSONA: Thanatos.
CURRENT PERSONA: Samael, Thanatos. Info on skills changes, etc. here.
WEAPON TYPE: One-handed swords, Pistols | Slash, Pierce.
OTHER: Minami's brother. Often visited by a strange ghost child during the Dark Hour,when he is sleeping. Set the rules of engagement regarding hit requests, and generally covers the means of making money and buying Suppressants.
NAME: floreatnoctem
AGE: Unknown (likely 16-17)
GENDER: Female.
ROLE: Intelligence gathering, Battle, Combat Support, and Concealment.
CURRENT PERSONA: Medea.
WEAPON TYPE: Chained Hatchets | Slash.
OTHER: Chidori is much like Fuuka in that her Persona, Medea, serves the very same functions. However, hers is also capable of combat, as is Chidori herself, and Medea has an extra function: she can conceal Strega's presence completely, rendering even Fuuka unable to "sense" any of them. In her free time, she enjoys sketching. As of the current canon point they are from, Chidori is being held captive by SEES. Minato is working toward a plan to get her out.
NAME: Jin Shirato
AGE: Unknown (likely 16-17)
GENDER: Male.
ROLE: Battle, webmaster of "Revenge Request" site.
CURRENT PERSONA: Moros.
WEAPON TYPE: Grenades | Fire Damage.
OTHER: Jin has almost unending loyalty to Takaya Sakaki as well as Minato, regardless of the former's actions that got him kicked out of the group. He is an explosives expert, as well as a high-level hacker. He is well-known on the internet, and generally accompanies Minato during any 'business' deals.
NAME: Koromaru (Koro-chan)
AGE: Unknown
GENDER: Male.
ROLE: Battle.
CURRENT PERSONA: Cerberus.
WEAPON TYPE: Knives | Slash.
OTHER: A dog whom Chidori found and rescued after he had been injured fighting a Shadow. Minato had a custom Evoker made for him after she healed him. He is loyal to a fault, and is usually found alongside Ken.
NAME: Ken Amada
AGE: 10
GENDER: Male.
ROLE: Battle.
STARTER PERSONA: Nemesis.
CURRENT PERSONA: Kala-Nemi.
WEAPON TYPE: Spears | Slash.
OTHER: Ken, despite his age, is a very competent fighter. While Minato had let him train with them, he did not allow Ken out with Strega during their Full Moon battles, worrying he would get hurt. Strega ran across him before Shuji Ikutsuki did and, after finding out about his grudge, Minato decided to help him. Since Shinjiro's death in October, Ken has overcome his feelings about what happened, and now fights alongside Strega.
Ex-Members
NAME: Takaya Sakaki
AGE: Unknown (assumed 17)
GENDER: Male.
ROLE: Co-founder of Strega with Minato, now a separate party.
CURRENT PERSONA: Hypnos.
WEAPON TYPE: Revolver | Pierce.
OTHER: Killed Shinjiro Aragaki in an attempt to kill Ken Amada when he couldn't get them to kill each other. He is at odds with Minato for having betrayed him and attempting to manipulate the others. As a result, Minato made the decision to kick him out of their 'family' of sorts. Still, he taught Strega about not fearing death, but he seems to accept it more than even they do... to the point, perhaps, of welcoming the end.
