This isn't going to be much of a full analysis of all the new characters Personas, for oddly enough, except for Meng Po, all of them are from Greek Mythology. It destroys my theory about how there's two groups of Persona Users that uses the main theme of P5 Personas being outlaws in some way or form, and the other group being Mythological personas like the older games.

That said, here is a brief rundown:

Cleodora, Okyann's Persona is a water nymph with the gift of prophecies, and like, threw pebbles and stones to see the future.

Kotomo's Persona of Prosymna is a naiad, with is a type of nymph. Prosymna and her sisters are nurses to the goddess Hera.

Rin's Persona of Meng Po is the Chinese Goddess of forgetfulness who serves her role in Diyu, the Chinese realm of the dead. Meng Po collects herbs from different ponds and streams to make a soup that she gives to the souls in Diyu before they leave, to make them forget everything of their past life before getting reborn.

Erytheia, Leo (Reo Kamiyama)'s Persona is like, a lot of things also in Greek Mythos, one Erytheia being also a nymph. But given Leo is apparently a toku fan, I think it's likely a reference to another Erytheia: an island that keeps home to the giant Geryon , and his Persona does look like giant of sorts.

The Persona that is the odd ball out is Kii's Persona, Skye. But that's only because I keep on getting Psyche, the Greek goddess of the soul. So if someone could help me out here, that would be great.

At least three out of five of the new Personas have a connection to water. Four by accepting Erytheia being an island/giant fusion (because I'm stretching the definition of connection to water for the island). Very interesting to see where this water theme goes...
