Persona Shifting A Persona Shift is somewhere between assuming a mood and the personality of their animal. Some Were Creatures have a separate persona for their "wereside", the different personae may even have memories attached to them that other persona's don't have (i.e. other persona's can't remember that event). Different personae often have different outlooks on the world, different skills, and other things like that. Learning to recognize different personae that you shift into (if you are a persona shifter) can be very beneficial in learning to extricate yourself from the mess and confusion that persona shifting can easily cause, and knowledgeable persona shifting can be beneficial, such as shifting into a persona that is calm and level-headed in a dangerous situation or shifting into a persona, at the right time, that knows how to write very well to ensure straight A's in English.

The voice of one's writings which embodies a completely different personality than that which is used naturally by an individual when speaking. Often times, there seems to be a formality which is uncharacteristic to the person that is used as a means of persuasion or description, even when writing to those to whom the individual is informal.
Following are two ways of conveying a message. First, using the paper persona, and second, using regular speech:
TEXT TRANSCRIPT
"There was a period of years where I, in a phase of morbid development, blamed myself for every occurrence of misfortune. However in recent days, I've learned to dissociate from that pattern."
SPOKEN
"For years, I just blamed myself for everything bad, man. But I've been working on it. I think I'm better now."

Persona 3 is the second best persona game, behind 5 and in front of 4, where the main character fucking shoots himself to make a new himself to fight monsters, called shadows. He fights along side his friends, who he lives with in this big ass dormitory. With its great story telling and engaging gameplay, it’s no wonder it lost to Persona 4, which is worse in almost every way.

Randal: You became persona non-nookie to me the minute he started diddling your pooter.
Emma: So thinking of me in terms of being a girl kind of creeps you out, does it?
Randal: Sweetheart, I don't think of you in terms of being a girl, I don't think of you in any way...
