==Profile==
===Persona 3: Shadow Cry===
Izumi is an Artificial Persona user, similar to Strega, after being experimented on by the Kirijo Group. However, unlike Strega, he differed in that his Persona was horribly weak and rather formless. So much so that he could not even defeat the weakest Shadow. Despite this, he was able to befriend Strega during the four's time under such experimentation. Izumi was believed to have been dead after being sent on a mission in Tartarus and he never returned. However, he managed to escape, though was heavily injured. Initially, a woman took him in, but he didn't want to be a burden to her and her son and so he left. Eventually, another woman, a nurse, took him in and he's been living with her, and her daughter (who calls him Papa despite not being related). When her work had her move back to Tatsumi Port Island, he had to follow. He currently works part-time at Hagakure Ramen to help his family.
Two years ago, that woman that saved him would be murdered and Izumi would learn about it from her son. Wanting to avenge her, he sent a hit on Strega's Revenge Request site. However, given the vagueness of this request, they ignored it. Izumi would reunite with Strega, a night following Strega trapping SEES on August 6th, being attacked by Cowardly Maya. After initially fighting them with his knife, mistaking them for enemies, all four would catch up with each other. On how Strega were now a group of assassins, and Izumi's current living conditions. The topic moves towards the woman murdered, and Takaya suggests that the group takes on his request (albeit Izumi would have to pay them in monthly installments). Takaya advises Izumi to keep on living his current life with the family he had. 
However, as the story progress, it becomes apparent that Izumi had become a shadow guzzling monster that Strega would be forced to put down.
