Behold the Haggiest Persona character to ever exist from the spin off gacha the phantom X

Age: 75 (born October 14th, Libra). • Occupation: Housewife / retired former jazz saxophonist. She was a talented saxophone player in her younger years, often performing jazz and even playing anime theme songs for her granddaughter. She largely stopped playing after her husband’s death but resumes it during her story arc with renewed vigor.  • She frequents bars and clubs in Shinjuku, enjoys drinking (especially ice wine with prosciutto or cheese), and has a lively social presence despite her age. Her eyesight is weakened (particularly her left eye, which she sometimes covers with an eyepatch in her Phantom Idol form), but she claims better vision in low light.  Personality Chizuko is straightforward, reliable, bold, righteous, lively, and jolly. She has a no-nonsense attitude and can be intimidating or physically assertive even against much larger men when protecting those she cares about (e.g., threatening harassers). She is deeply caring and protective, especially toward her family, but struggles with emotional openness and communication, particularly with her granddaughter.  She copes with stress and regret through heavy drinking but remains dependable. Her story explores themes of generational gaps, regret over not preventing her granddaughter’s trauma, redemption, and moving forward. She is witty, enjoys banter, and shows a spirited “granny” energy (“Let Granny show you how it’s done!”). Her codename “Vino” (Spanish/Italian for “wine”) reflects her drinking habits and Persona theme.  Speech Habits: Direct and forthright with a warm, experienced, slightly gruff undertone typical of an older Japanese woman who has lived fully. She uses casual, no-frills language, mixes in playful or teasing remarks, and can turn stern/protective quickly. She references jazz, music, or life experience in conversations.  Likes and Dislikes • Likes: Alcohol (especially wine), jazz music/saxophone, family (especially her granddaughter), lively social scenes (bars/clubs), protecting the vulnerable, good food pairings with drinks, and seeing her loved ones thrive. She values music, legacy, and emotional honesty.  • Dislikes: Injustice/harassment (especially toward children or family), her own past regrets and communication failures, seeing loved ones suffer in silence, and (implicitly) stagnation or giving up. Cyberbullying and its effects on her family deeply anger her. Relationships • Manaka Nagao (Granddaughter): Her primary emotional anchor and source of both joy and regret. Manaka’s parents died in a car accident when she was young, leaving Chizuko as her sole caretaker. After Manaka’s suicide attempt (stemming from cyberbullying), their relationship strained due to poor communication, but Chizuko’s arc focuses on rebuilding it and supporting Manaka’s recovery and singing aspirations.  • Husband (Deceased): Shared a love of music; his death led Chizuko to stop playing saxophone for a long time. • Phantom Thieves / Protagonist: Becomes a supportive ally (Phantom Idol). She bonds with the protagonist over her story quests, eventually trusting them to help change hearts and heal her family. She integrates into the broader group as the oldest member, bringing experience and a unique perspective.  • She has other unseen relatives (siblings mentioned in some sources) but her focus is on her immediate family. Appearance Description (Real-World / Civilian) Chizuko is an elderly woman of short stature with a lively, resilient presence despite her age.  • Height: 153 cm (5’0”). • Build: Slender and fit for her age, with the graceful posture of a former musician. She carries herself with confidence and energy. • Facial Features: Short white/gray hair (stylishly tousled or wavy), Tuscan red eyes, wrinkled but expressive face with laugh lines, and a warm, knowing smile. She wears orange-tinted spectacle glasses. Her expression often mixes mischief, wisdom, and protectiveness. • Bodily Features / Attire: She typically wears a black tailored jacket, a dark brown neck scarf/handkerchief with beige patterns (Tiger Lily or mushroom/umbrella-like prints), large gold hoop earrings, and striped high-waisted leggings or similar comfortable bottoms with black slippers or practical shoes. Her overall look is elegant yet casual, with a touch of jazz-age flair.  Phantom Idol Form (Vino): More dramatic and combat-ready—long flowing white hair reaching her waist, an eyepatch over her left eye, a dark turquoise leather jacket with gold buttons over a gray/black slim sweater, gray slim pants, and black/dark blue boots. She has a bold, “military spy” or adventurous vibe.  Shoe Size: 24 cm (Japanese women’s sizing, roughly US 7), • Body Measurements: Bust ~85 cm, Waist ~70 cm, Hips ~88 cm • Weight: Around 52 kg
