"It's that weird place I can't go to. Have fun for me and tell the long nosed guy I said hi!"

A place between mind and reality
The Velvet Room operates like a work office, single floor, the outside covered in fog making it impossible to see what is going on. The sound of sirens echoes once in a while...

Currently (as of September, 2017), each character gets a blue-colored desk with an ancient-looking computer and screen.

For AWAKENED characters, the login screen will display all of their Persona's information and current weapons. For UNAWAKENED characters, the computer will be stuck in a continious bootup loop that never ends.

If they try to move, the chair squeaks loudly - everything around them needs serious elbow grease to function properly. Some chairs have rips and tears, leaking fluff, missing buttons and are generally badly in need of repair. Looking around will reveal rows of such desks, with everyone in their own little blue-colored cubicle. Phones and other electronic devices don't appear to be working either.

There are two additional rooms - cafeteria area which has a broken coffee machine, and an unplugged fridge that is moldy and not working either.

The other is a meeting room with very uncomfortable chairs and a large mohagona picture of the Velvet Room's master, Igor.

Really, this place could use a lot of touch ups...

Entering the Velvet Room
There are a few ways to enter the Velvet Room;

AWAKENED
Awakened characters can come to the Velvet Room once per week in their dreams for a HR MEETING. When they dream, a blue door will open, and they will be able to enter it.

They can use this time to give out the requests they were given and claim their rewards.

AWAKENED & UNAWAKENED
Sometimes the Velvet Room will hold TEAM MEETING which are logs in which all characters can come in, even if they do not have access to their Personas and full memories yet.

During that time, characters will be able to enter a blue door that shows up at night, that only they can see. Someone from their family will just remark that the character fell asleep after staring at the wall.
Residents
Currently, the Velvet Room has 3 residents;

Mary
Mary is one of the two Velvet Room HR Residents. She is quiet, speaks in a monotone manner, is always dignified, and very rarely smiles. Her request are always serious (and can be somewhat boring). Mary always has the Guests' best intentions in mind.
ARCANA: : Female Guests: The Guru | Male Guests: The Witch
(Note that Mary herself does not have an Arcana; this is simply the Social Link with her.)
William
William is the other Velvet Room HR Resident. A being of power, he is much more relaxed than his sister, and seems to know plenty of the outside world. Giving presents to him means he will usually try to use them instantly. Sometimes he will request very odd things for the fun of it or to try out things the outside world can offer him.
ARCANA: : Male Guests: The Black Moon | Female Guests: The Angel
(Note that William himself does not have an Arcana; this is simply the Social Link with him.)
Igor
Igor is the mysterious proprietor of the Velvet Room, found in between consciousness and unconsciousness. Most Guests only know him from the large portrait in the meeting room. Despite his rather striking appearance, Mary and William claim that Igor bears a calm and courteous demeanor when speaking with Guests. That, of course, remains to be seen.
Requests
Characters can fill out additional requests to gain special abilities or enhance their current ones. These can be found in their own page, and function as the game's rewards.
