From Megami Tensei Wiki: a Demonic Compendium of your True Self

"The Arcana is the means by all is revealed...
Celebrate life's grandeur...it's brilliance...it's magnificence..."
—Nyx Avatar

Empress Arcana is a recurring Arcana in the Persona series. In tarot readings, the Empress represents prosperity, creativity, sexuality, abundance, fertility and comfort (most often in helping maintain peace around them like an ideal mother would.) Gameplay-wise, the Personae of the Empress Arcana are Personae excelling in Ice-based attacks with healing powers also relatively common.

[edit] Persona 3

The Empress Arcana Social Link is represented by SEES member Mitsuru Kirijo. The Protagonist can create the Social Link after November 20th, after the School Trip. However, the Protagonist must also first max-out his "Academics" status and score the highest results in at least one exams.

The Empress Arcana powers up everytime the Protagonist interacts with Mitsuru, where the Protagonist helps Mitsuru to cope up with her father's death and the pressure and the responsiblities she has to face being the heir of the Kirijo Group. Upon completing the Social Link, Mitsuru will give the Protagonist her motorcycle key, bestowing the Ultimate Form of the Empress Arcana, Alilat.

The Empress Arcana is also the Persona Arcana of Mitsuru Kirijo.

[edit] Persona 3: FES

The Empress Arcana remains relatively the same as Persona 3, however, an exclusive Personae, Yaksini was added in the Empress Arcana repertoire.

[edit] Persona 4

See Also: Margaret#Social Link

The Empress Arcana is represented by Margaret, a denizen of the Velvet Room and the assistant of Igor. The Empress Arcana Social Link is available to create after the Protagonist' 'Knowledge' characteristic reaches Lv. 3, 'Expert'.

The Empress Arcana Social Link stands in unique in comparison to other Social Links, as the Empress Arcana powers up every time the Protagonist completes Margaret's requests, which happens to be fusing specific Personae with specific skills. The Social Link interaction does not take up the whole day, which means as long as the Protagonist has the specific Persona Margaret requested, he can upgrade the Social Link as many times as he wishes; in theory, the entire Social Link could be accomplished in a single day.

Upon completing the Social Link, Margaret will give the Protagonist her Spiral Brooch, bestowing the Ultimate Form of the Empress Arcana, Isis.

Knowledge Rank 3 (Expert) is required to start this Social Link. Upon reaching it, visit the Velvet Room to unlock Rank 1 status (and with it, an automatic level up for any Empress Personae that are fused) and also receive Margaret's first request.
