Abel (Persona)

Abel is a Persona in the series.
==History==
Abel, like his older brother Cain and his younger brother Seth, was one of the first children, as well as being the second son of Adam and Eve, the progenitors of the human race, as mentioned in the Abrahamic religions.
He was known as a righteous man and one of pure heart and devotion to those who are deserving of it. Abel lived a relatively peaceful life alongside his brother Cain, however, due to Abel's love for his elder brother, he was unfortunately naive to see that Cain was beginning to show signs of envy from the fact that God was favoring Abel over him. Despite the apparent act of favoritism, however, Abel showed no signs of pride for it, and would never boast of it towards his brother. Instead he treated him as an equal and even requested that God allow Cain's crops to be eternally nutritious for centuries to come. Yet despite all that, this did not quell Cain's jealousy.
Things eventually took a turn for the worst when the two brothers presented their gifts to God. Cain presented some of the land's produce as an offering to God. Abel then presented his offering, some of the firstborn of his flock and their fat portions. God had regard for Abel and his offering, but He did not have regard for Cain and his offering. Cain was furious, and he was downcast. Then God said to Cain, "Why are you furious? And why are you downcast? If you do right, won't you be accepted? But if you do not do right, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must master it." Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.

===Persona -trinity soul-===
Abel is the Persona of the protagonist, Shin Kanzato. It first awakened within him as a child when seeing his parents attacked by Ayane Komatsubara, but due to the trauma of the incident, Shin's older brother Ryo Kanzato sealed away it with his memories. After Shin returns to Ayanagi City, it awakens from its dormant state when he's attacked by Yuji Kimoto. Its appearance is a contrast to Ryo Kanzato's Persona, Cain, reflecting their sibling relationship.
Shin's Persona has the ability to sever the connection between a person and their persona, which becomes a powerful tool in fighting against the Marebito.
