"When people are unable to face their darker selves, they break loose, free from all control. But sometimes, humans with special awareness can tame their Shadows... Those are Persona-users."
A Persona user (ペルソナ使い, Perusona tsukai)?, also sometimes stylized as Persona-user, is a being, usually human, who has the supernatural ability to summon their Persona. After they obtain their Personas their physical and mental abilities increase to superhuman levels. Some Persona users can summon multiple Personas with the Wild Card.

Profile[edit | edit source]
Persona[edit | edit source]
The protagonist and other Persona users summon their Personas by using their will alone. They were able to obtain their Personas by playing the Persona Game and meeting Philemon, who granted them their Personas. Maki Sonomura, Reiji Kido, Kumi Hirose, Michiko Matsudaira, and Yuriko Yamamoto are not mentioned as having played the Persona game or met Philemon.
According to the Persona World guide, Takahisa Kandori received his Persona from Nyarlathotep instead of Philemon. In the Megami Ibunroku Persona Club, Takeda's ability was awakened as a result of his strong desire to sing, which allowed him to meet Philemon.
Persona 2[edit | edit source]
Tatsuya Suou, Maya Amano and other Persona users summon their Personas by using their will alone.
Innocent Sin[edit | edit source]
When Tatsuya, Maya and their friends were younger they were able to obtain their Personas by playing a game similar to the Persona Game called Master Persona Incarnation. Ulala Serizawa was able to become a Persona user sometime in the past due to Maya playing it with her. The Masked Circle obtain their Personas by a different means by making a contract with Joker and by extension Nyarlathotep. The Masked Circle and the Shadow Selves of Tatsuya, Maya and his friends instead use Reverse Personas.
Eternal Punishment[edit | edit source]
Maya never played the Master Persona Incarnation with Tatsuya and his friends in the Other Side but eventually did so with Ulala in middle school. She was able to summon her Personas with Ulala and Katsuya when they are under attack by Demons. Katsuya Suou was able to summon his Personas by playing the Master Persona Incarnation with Tatsuya when they were younger. People who are infected by the Joker Curse obtain the Persona Joker and Persona users who are infected by the Joker Curse had their Personas overwritten into the Persona Joker. The Metal Trio are able to summon Personas similar to Reverse Personas. It is revealed that Randolph Carter is a Persona user.
Persona 3[edit | edit source]
The protagonist and other Persona users summon their Personas by using their Evokers. The Kirijo Group created two types of Persona users by creating the Anti-Shadow Suppression Weapons and Artificial Persona users to fight against Shadows. The Persona of the Anti-Shadow Suppression Weapons are created using a Plume of Dusk, while artificial Persona users are open to attack by their Personas due to their unnatural awakening. Persona 3 also shows that a dog can use a Persona.
Persona 4[edit | edit source]
The protagonist and other Persona users crush their Tarot Cards to summon their Personas. When an ordinary Shadow gains an ego, it is able to become a Persona user.
Persona 5[edit | edit source]
The protagonist and other Persona users rip away their masks to summon their Personas. Their first summoning is shown to be traumatic and their Personas were able to transform their users physically by giving them outfits that reflect their true selves.
