Penthesilea (ペンテシレア^?) is a Persona in the series.

HistoryEdit

Penthesilea is a figure in Greek mythology, in which she is an Amazonian queen. She is the daughter of Ares, god of war, and Otrera, queen and founder of the Amazons. According to legend, Penthesilea accidentally killed her sister Hippolyta, and as penance for her actions, she joined in the Trojan War, leading the Amazons to battle. She joined the war in its tenth and final year, and was killed by Achilles, who fell in love with her upon her death.

ProfileEdit

Penthesilea is the initial Persona of Mitsuru Kirijo. It carries an affinity to Ice, and appears as an iron-masked queen wielding a dagger and a rapier.

Penthesilea is shown to have similar abilities to Fuuka's Persona, Lucia, but to a much less powerful extent. After Fuuka joins SEES, she takes over as the group's tactical advisor, and Mitsuru joins the front lines.

Mitsuru has to go past level 50 before Marin Karin can be removed from Penthesilea.

In Persona 3 Em, Penthesilea has an Arche form, Arche-Penthesilea, which serves as a boss in the game.
