What if The Phantom Thieves had their own palaces?
Obviously the only people that can have palaces are incredibly bad people. But after playing psychonauts stoned off my ass, the concept of got me thinking. Essentially in Psychonauts the gimic is that each level is someone's mind and its up to you to make everything right in their head. Sounds familiar doesn't it? HOWEVER Unlike P5, in psychonauts EVERYONE'S mind is explorable which brings the question. What if P5 did the same thing? What if having a palace wasn't limited to people with ill intentions/motives? And finally, what other way to ponder that than with the phantom thieves themselves? You can discuss the designs of their palaces, their perceptions of the world around them, what their treasures would be, etc. But to keep things spoiler free, (and for my sake because I just beat the third palace lol) Let's just leave it at our starting 4 main characters. Akira, Ryuji, Ann and Morgana. SIDE CHARACTERS TOO!!!

UPDATE So I came back to P5 and finally got to learn about Futaba (a character I was excited to learn about from seeing her around) And her story/why she has a palace put a contradiction in my OP. Even still, I'd still like to discuss the idea of the others having palaces.

Morgana's Palace would have a statue of himself saying "Best Persona Mascot" and be full of Fatty Tuna and cat pictures.

An Interesting fact regarding this subject, and huge spoilers so READ IF YOU DARE: Akechi was at one point in development meant to have a palace, so I would imagine his being filled with his admiring fans, but then all of those would mean nothing compared to his Bastard father Shido acknowledging him as his own son.

wow that is really interesting

Morgana's Palace would have a statue of himself saying "Best Persona Mascot" and be full of Fatty Tuna and cat pictures. untrue it'd have a statue of ann and scattered pics of nude joker

I feel like Morgana's palace would be a more wholesome/age appropriate version of Kamoshida's. He would be the king of the castle. Ann would be his queen (without the sexualization) and the rest of the phantom thieves would play various roles. Joker would be the black knight. Futaba would be the wizard Ryuji would be the jester(because Morgana) Yusuke would be something of a Renaissance artist Makoto would be a lower ranking, but still important knight that aids Joker (I dont know anything about Haru and barely know Akechi to give them concepts yet) All the distorted versions of their past enemies would be locked in the dungeon for all eternity. His treasure would be a golden Ann Statue. And if it were stolen. The real life version would look like an Oscar.

What if the setting were in a TV broadcasting station? Similar to the one where we go on the field trip to? Akechi would be the host of a game show and each floor would be a different challenge. The whole thing would be filmed in front of a live studio audience Any time you enter and win a battle the crowd cheers. But if you miss an attack or die they boo. His treasure would be a functional golden TV Camera.

My idea for Ryuji is a tad fuzzy but I keep coming back to the words "post-apocolyptic" and "anarchaic" I was kinda thinking it would like what would happen if mad max took place in a highschool.
