I've actually been contemplating ideas for a Persona RP, but I'm having trouble plot-wise. If anyone has any ideas, let me know.
Okay, when I started off, people just did a simple coffee shop RP or a haunted house RP. Try one of those. Or would you rather I did? I can use the nostalgia.

XD Coffee shop RP sounds dull I prefer one with story than open world ones.

That's the beauty of it. It can lead to the starts of MORE RPs. Sort of a hub if you will. A character can say "I just read about this haunted house down the street!" And more characters go "Really? that sounds great! Lets go!" And BAM! A new RP.

Hmm. In the context of Persona, that could work, at least in terms of setting. I'll have to think about it a bit.
Just so you know, I am a bit of a veteran, at least in terms of forum-based RPs. Just putting that out there.

One of my friends made a pen and paper Persona RP, XD it wasn't entirely balanced.
Dare I ask what happened so that I can avoid making a similar mistake?

"BACK IN MY DAY!" sort of BS.

Well it's pen and paper so it was a stats issue. He made a stat for endurance and magic and strength like in the game. Except I think in the game Endurance affects magic resistance as well, in the Pen and paper RPG it was made to represent only physical resistance so essentially the MAG stat doubled as resistance and power. One of the testers cracked this and made a supremely powerful character by just pumping points into MAG.
Granted it was only homebrew.

Without getting too far into detail, all I'll say is that the AU scenario you described might not be necessary. There's a simple tactic that I use in my fanfiction that can be applied to RPs: Find something in the story that is not explained because it doesn't really need to be, and use that as your basis. That's kinda what Persona 4 Arena does, although I won't say how for your sake.
Also, there's nothing wrong with the Fool Arcana. It's the Wild Card that might cause unbalance in the RP.

Maybe, but there's nothing wrong with using a Persona who is characterized by the Fool Arcana (Black Frost, Loki, etc). It's just that you can't switch Personas. At least, that's my thinking.
Anyway, I think I might have an idea. Let me get things set up.
