Character Name; Souji Seta
Canon; Persona 4 (series wiki ; character wiki)
Canon Point; Post-True Ending
Age; 17
House; Sigyn
Power; Healing
Personality; As a silent protagonist, much of Souji's personality can be interpreted by the player. However, that does not mean that he is a complete blank state, as he often shows off his own odd quirks and tendencies unprompted. It's definitely possible to see and distinguish his personality within his actions and options as a player character.
His friends say that he is a quiet person. This isn't just because he's a silent protag. Despite being the leader of the team, Souji is a fairly quiet person. He speaks when appropriate during discussion, and sometimes he's the last dry-wit comment to the end of a joke. As the leader of the investigation team, he has the final say in decision-making, so he often chooses his words carefully and speaks up when it's the right time. His words are a tool, not a weapon. The same goes for when he's hanging out with somebody. He won't say things to necessarily please people all the time, but they're words that ultimately help people figure themselves out. Souji listens more than he speaks. He's a shoulder for others to cry on. And usually he's just quietly listening and observing in conversation, taking it in before saying something.
Outwardly, Souji appears calm and cool. He holds himself that way too, his hand usually perched on his hip. Other students not only look up to him, but they're mystified by him being a new transfer student and all. Especially from the city! Souji himself doesn't seem to be fazed by much. Sticking his hand in a TV with people around? Ain't no big thing. Doing requests for a fox and talking to it for the rest of the day? That's nothing. Souji is admittedly an oddball, and he has his own set of quirks that usually puzzle his friends. From magic tricks, to singing to lost dogs, to scaring a man with a phobia of cats by meowing, to feeding all the stray cats- Souji is a weird one indeed.
Yet he holds a charisma in him that attracts people. He can be flirtatious, and he isn't beyond teasing others here and there. His sense of humor is a little dry and sarcastic, and he isn't afraid to make humorous quips, even in serious situations. He has the courage to make bold statements without fear of backlash, even to someone of authority like his uncle (who's also a cop, by the way).
Well, it goes without saying that Souji is a friendly guy overall. He may look cool and collected, but he's very approachable and always willing to help others with their problems. Whether it's a task to make a model rocket for someone, or lending an ear to a friend, he'll do it. He's always running around town doing odd requests for people, and people come to him for help as well. As mentioned before, Souji is a solid shoulder for others to cry on. He listens to people's problems and tries his best to help them through it without ordering them how to live their lives. He doesn't push people one way or another necessarily; sometimes it's just advice, a suggestion, or something to help them realize their true feelings inside. In a way, he's a catalyst to others by just being there and allowing them to think. Souji's created many precious bonds with his friends in Inaba, manifested when he helped them overcome their hardships.
Souji is also, well, kind of a family man! Most notably, he takes care of his little cousin, Nanako, whom he considers more like his little sister. Since his uncle is usually busy with work, he's usually the one looking after her every night. He acts like her big brother, helping her with her homework, with the household chores, and sometimes they talk one-on-one about more serious topics. Considering he has to reach a certain level of Understanding before he can talk about those things with his relative, Souji's depth of compassion and ability to listen and respond can be felt in his overall personality. He's, well, motherly in a sense. It's clear in the way he cares for Nanako's well-being all the time.
He's also very diligent and able to manage his time well. He is skilled in cooking and crafts and he does them expertly. When he's doing a part-time job, such as envelope-folding or origami crane-making, he often motivates himself to help him focus on his task. He is able to schedule himself for the day too, breaking up his time for everyone as efficiently as possible while investigating a murder case. Not easy stuff, but he performs it well.
As a leader, he takes charge. His rational thought and ability to keep cool earns him respect amongst his friends and lends itself to his title of leader. He issues orders to his teammates in combat and always leads the party into the dungeon. When a situation is looking tough, he manages to keep himself level-headed and focused. And when the team is divided amongst itself, Souji is able to step in and keep them together. For example, they had a crucial decision near the end of the game, whether to accuse an innocent man or not of murder in the face of a loved one's death. Despite losing someone he loved recently, Souji was able to separate himself from his emotions and keep calm. Anyone else would be too rattled. But somehow Souji, with all his inner strength, found it within himself to refocus and rethink. His ability to rationalize allowed him to seek the truth in the end.
Souji is quiet, but friendly. He's honest and a little odd, but he always means well. He's reliable, which is why others depend on him so much. He doesn't let things get to him; he can stay level-headed. Overall he makes one great guy and a great friend.
