Emperor Arcana Compendium [Persona 5/ P5]

Emperor Arcana (IV)

The Emperor Arcana symbolizes a person’s desire to take control of their surroundings. Sometimes, those who fall under the Emperor Arcana often times appear as if they’re trying too hard. Because they’re trying too hard, they may sometimes cause trouble for those around them. However, those under this arcana soon recognize that they have been causing more problems than help. Thus, they undergo a change where they take hold of their own destiny and adversity. This is seen similar to Yusuke Kitagawa, Kanji Tatsumi (P4), Akihiko Sanada (P3, P3 FES).

When using any persona from the Emperor Arcana, majority of the persona specialize in lightning (Zio) and physical attacks. This symbolizes the persona’s strength and might as a ruler. However, they are sometimes susceptible to Bufu-based attacks. This makes it problematic; especially when they can be your strongest character.

After you trigger the Emperor Social Confidant, you see that those under this arcana are troubled by personal problems. Thing is as well, they don’t know how to deal with it.
