Don (Promised Neverland)

**Don** is a Crossover Character in the **Persona Record Series**, part of the **Crossover Arc**, he first appeared in **Persona Record: Generations Memory's Mirror**, he comes from the Manga and Anime, **Promised Neverland**.

## First Appearance

### Debut

Persona Record: Generations Memory's Mirror - Chapter 8

## Appearance

Don is a young boy with a slender appearance, dark skin, and a rather tall stature, towering over all the other children at Grace Field. He has short, messy black hair with an undercut and brown eyes. He wears the standard Grace Field uniform- a plain white long sleeved button-up shirt and white pants along with brown boots. Like all other orphans at Grace Field House, he has a number tattooed onto the left side of his neck, in this case, the number "16194".

## Personality

Don is perceived by others to be a cheerful, energetic, happy, and social boy who is always friendly towards everyone. In contrast to Gilda, he is very careless, rowdy, less inclined and talkative. He seemed to hold a rivalry with Norman, where he displayed acts of pettiness and childishness. However, he also seems to be fairly intelligent, coming around 5th place in the everyday tests after **Gilda**.

Similarly to **Emma**, Don holds a great deal of love towards his siblings and is fiercely protective and cares deeply about them. For example, he swore he would rescue Connie and the rest of the orphans when he was told they were sold off. He also wants to be seen as a person whom his siblings can rely on, so he is always determined to help out and hates keeping secrets within the family.

Don is noted to be impulsive and driven by his feelings, which **Norman** comments on at the beginning of the series. Some examples are getting himself and Gilda in trouble by accessing their way to Isabella's room, and using violence against **Ray** and Norman in a fit of anger for hiding the harsh reality. In reality, Don was upset with himself for not being able to protect the ones close to him. After this, Don expresses his desire to become stronger so he can be there for his siblings, which culminates in his decision to whole-heartedly help Emma, Norman, and Ray. Throughout his experiences, Don gains more self-confidence and boosts his skills.

## Background

### **Childhood**

Don was born at Grace Field on July 4, 2035 and sent to Plantation 3 a year later in 2036. Growing up as an orphan under the parental care of Isabella, Don grew close with several other children, including Connie.

### **History and Before the Events of PRGMM**

Taking daily tests, eating delicious homemade food, having a good time and wearing the same white uniform, Don went through the same routine every day in Grace Field, an orphanage where he lived since he was one year old. Under the loving parental care of Isabella, Don spent a pleasant childhood in Grace Field. Don is first introduced when Emma greeted him and Connie (and Little Bunny) while she was running around and carrying Phil.

Don is later seen asking Norman for help with fixing a clock in their room. Don, not knowing at the time, is confused when Norman starts looking at Emma when she's with Mama Isabella. Don is called when the older children have to help Mama with chores. While cleaning, he shouts that he wants to play and asks why they got chosen to do the chores. He questions if they are getting punished for something. Gilda then grabs him and pulls him to another room. When they return, he starts yelling because he sees Emma slacking off. He then continues to complain about doing chores.

Soon, Emma Comes up a Escape Plan out of Grace Field, after the 3 suspect that one of the other children is a spy working for Isabella, this Don along with Gilda are brought in, but they also lie about the true meaning behind the secret grace field about children being killed and eaten by Demons, they instead tell them, Isabella is involved of giving the children being adopted (Shipped-Out), to "Human Traffickers", Norman chooses to not tell about Connie's Death and say that she is still alive, Don refused to believe this and began to laugh in disbelief and ask what the 'joke is', but later comes to accept the harsh reality, but that didn't became all they had to deal with however.....

* **Flexibility:** Don has rather quick reflexes and is great at pick-pocketing, as he was able to take Isabella's master key so that he and Gilda can get into the secret room and see what they can find out about Connie and the other children that left the orphanage. He did this by bumping into her and making it look like an accident, demonstrating that he's extremely quick as it was only a split second.
