This is an idea that came to me earlier. Might be a bit difficult but it might be an interesting idea none the less. I'm not a modder by any means, but some suggestions and opinions are greatly appreciated.
As the topic title suggests this is an idea based on Atlus' game series of Persona, more notable 3 and 4.
Onto the meat of things.
I had an idea that the Personae would be like mobs around the map, capturing them in cards(Much like the popular Pokemobs).
The cards would then be taken to a crafting table and then depending on how you position them, would create more powerful Personas, like the tarot spreads used in the series.
Let me try to provide an example:
I'll use to indicate the cards.
This would be a regular two-card spread(would be on either two sides), it wouldn't make any particularly POWERFUL Personae, but it would make them stronger at least. More cards, more power.
Now to a more aesthetic part.
I know there is a mod somewhere that adds phases to the moon, but I was wondering if it would be possible to change it's hue to green, much like Persona 3, in which that time of night would make shadows and Persona spawn.
Or the sky would be a mix of red and black like the Midnight Channel in 4.
Either way, I thought these would be interesting ideas. Let me know what you guys think!

I've wanted to do this for so long, but, I don't like writing Java,If it was MSVC++, then I could whip it up in a couple of days, but no, Java of course, a good lesson to switch to an easier programming system.
You can actually edit the moon phases, that is easy, but also, it would be cool if tartarus would emerge in a place where the player placed the SHADOW ESSENCE block, or something like that, and there would also be a TV world, which is also possible (re-apping nether). This is a really good idea, and I hope to start someone working on this. My friend has some Java experience, so if he is not busy, I will ask him about it's development. Its good to see someone getting info and ideas out, share info is great. And even add a final boss for each world, Tartarus (I'm not saying for spoilers purpose)
and the murderer and his persona (not saying), for the TV world. the crafting for cards would be cool as a block called VELVET ROOM, and was basically a cooler crafting box. And you could develop personas, but, the problem would be elemental stuff like weaknesses, and resistances, and that presents a challange. Light and Dark, I can already say, would not be good, because you can't "revive the player in minecraft" another challange would be social links, which are basically out, persona's main two themes, are: EMBRACE YOURSELF, and: BONDS OF PEOPLE ARE THE TRUE POWER. With one of these out, dunno how we would do it. It would be like a different pokemobs, which got boring pretty fast. Exploration is what would save this mod. give me some feedback, what you think, I'll ask around some about possible dev.
Go back on what I said about the moon earlier... VERY DIFFICULT
creating the moon color is easy, however, the ambient light around it is a near opposite, or very more dark color, and Paint.net isn't easy to obtain such color.... And green and red have no opposite to pick for the ambient, so it ends up looking like an orb of red in the sky, with the actual moon as the center, and it looks crappy.
i had the same idea. but i don't know how to make mods. i was thinking that there will be shadows spawning randomly according to the height of the tower. you get persona cards by killing shadows. when you get it, it will only show the arcana of the persona. when you right click the card it will show the persona inside it.
1. about elements, i think it will be good if it's like P4 except the mudo and hama. it will be better if mudo and hama just inflinct statusses like blind, poison, etc. and the main elements can be effective or not effective against shadows or hostile mobs.
2. the persona casts their main elements. like izanagi casting zio, legion casting mudo, jack frost casting bufu, berith casting agi, and pixie casts dia. some elements can be uneffective against some shadow or hostile mob. like creeper absorbs izanagi's zio and become charged.
3. it's not persona 4 or 3 if there's no team. i was thinking of using something like the mob talker mod. you can talk to the mob and become closer to him and know his story. once you complete his story his persona changes to something more powerful.
4. about towers, i'm thinking of making them spawn a little rare.you can find those towers with something like teddies eyes. it acts like the same as ender eyes. it shows the direction to the closest towers you haven't conquered yet. make the tartarus a little rarer than the other towers. you get a teammate when you conquer a tower.
that's all of my ideas for persona mod right now. gimme some opinion about it!almost forgot. shadows become stronger when it's raining or full moon.
