BLURB: Here you should write what you have for your AU; your character's age, occupation, name, hobbies - that sort of thing! Just let us know what you have.
LOOKING FOR: Are you looking for family members or friends or enemies for your character to be pre-planned? Or are you asking for ideas or feedback on your AU idea? Anything goes, just specify what you would like.

I believe you've misinterpeted what I've said - if I'm wrong, please correct me, but I'm trying to make sure I'm as succinct as possible - so I'll see if I can lay this out better, using this diagram as a reference. The blue section represents her memories from using a similar example, birth until age 15, while the red section shows memories past fifteen.

With the way I was planning on playing her AU, I wanted her to keep her memories until the accident - or to be more specific, retain the memories - so she would have anterograde amnesia or something similar to that. She can recall things for a short period of time, but not for long periods of time. As for who writes the journal, the memories are written by herself while the event is happening, if that makes sense; if that's not possible, I can go with another alternative option, but I would prefer to mirror canon in this case, as she would be able to recognize her own handwriting, seeing as it wouldn't have changed all that much from the age of fifteen to, let's say... seventeen.

As for her analysis ability, since the FAQ says that SHSL abilities would be considered regains, I would most likely have to do it that way - correct me if I'm wrong - if that makes sense. Of course, since it is also anterograde amnesia, I am willing to cure it alternatively through having her see a doctor through surgery, therapy, hypnosis or some other method, since even with the loss of memories past the event that would have caused her amnesia, the memories are still stored in the body and cell memory.

I apologize if I'm going around in circles or if this sounds confusing but hopefully that makes sense to you guys?

Hello! We wanted to pop in and say that we did receive your response, but we will need to discuss at further length when the entire modteam is around. Thank you for your patience and your explanation! We hope to have an answer to you as quickly as possible.

Hello there! So after extensive review and discussing it amongst ourselves at a team, we believe we fully understand the situation and what you’re asking for the AU and have come up with a resolution.

With the explanation provided it’s fine to have her keep her AU memories of her AU life until the accident. It’s also fine for her to be dealing with anterograde amnesia if that’s the route that you choose to take.

While it’s fine for you purchase a regain of her analysis ability with bonus points as per our regain items rules, for something as canon-specific and almost supernatural as an SHSL skill, that is something we would prefer be paired with a memory regain as well.

So with that being said, yes you’re allowed to do this but we would suggest it might be best to have the amnesia cured via an alternative method so that she can start regaining her memories and recall that she has a special ability, at which time with enough points a SHSL regain may be purchased. This could serve as an interesting starting point for building CR and giving Ryoko/Junko motivations in-game to work with others and seek out other people.

We hope this helps and answers your question!

Totally understood and this works splendidly in my favor; thank you for the apt response as well as the suggestion, it's very much appreciated!
