The protagonist in his Thieves Den, Persona 5 Royal.
Thieves Den, also known as My Palace (マイパレス, Mai Paresu)? in Japanese, is a location and mechanic in Persona 5 Royal. It is the Palace of the protagonist and acts as the game's gallery room.
Thieves Den can be used as a hub for the protagonist, being the place where his memories manifest. He can transform himself into other members of the Phantom Thieves while exploring. Jose also appears at the front entrance, acting as the guide. In order to unlock Thieves Den, at least one playthrough of Persona 5 Royal must go past the 5th of May, the date where the Phantom Thieves were formed in their Wilton Hotel buffet celebration.
All Thieves Den data are universally shared among all Persona 5 save files on the game, so the player does not need multiple playthroughs to unlock all available features and achievements.
Thieves Den can be decorated with various items related to the protagonist's daily life. This includes statues of Palace rulers, cognitive beings, and Personas. In addition, as Thieves Den is being decorated with items, friends who the protagonist has deepened ties with may appear as cognitive entities. As well as conversations related to items, it is also possible to listen to conversations between characters who have little contact in the story.
Achievements will be transformed into awards and will be displayed on the walls of Thieves Den. They are sorted in 4 categories: School, Confidant, Battle and Other. Unlocking awards will give the protagonist P Medals.
If all the awards are unlocked, Jose will send, to the protagonist's room in Leblanc, the Invisible Veil and Letter of Royalty. The veil, once equipped, prevents all non-required Shadows from detecting the protagonist in the Metaverse. The letter also allows the protagonist to summon all of his acquired Personas for free.
Reloading saves is recommended as the achievements are recorded universally through multiple saves.
