[SPOILER="Spoiler"]The game starts with the silent protagonist walking towards the Iwatodai dorms where he would meet fellow dormmates Yukari Takeba and Mitsuru Kirijo. Along the way, he encountered elements of the Dark Hour as people around him are tranmorgified into coffins. Upon entering the dorms, he signed a contract and encountered a mysterious boy. The boy and all other elements of the Dark Hour then disappeared. Yukari and Mitsuru were unable to comprehend the protagonist's experience with the boy or the contract.
The next day, Yukari escorted the protagonist to Gekkougan High School where he is transferring in as an 11th grader (junior by American standards, and second year by Japanese standards). In his homeroom, he was greeted by classmate Junpei Iori. After the school day ended, the protagonist returns to the dorms and sleeps. The game then revealed that he is monitored by the Chairman and the other dormmates for activity during the Dark Hour
The day after, when time strikes midnight, the Dark Hour happened. Only this time, the full moon is present. A large Shadow, a monster that appears during the Dark Hour, chased senior dormmate Akihiko Sanada back to the dorms, injuring him in the process. Yukari then wakes up the protagonist and takes him up to the roof to avoid the Shadow. Unfortunately, the large Shadow climbed up the roof. Yukari, unable to achieve a calm mind, was unable to call forth her Persona and was knocked down by the large Shadow. The protagonist then picked up the Evoker Yukari dropped, a gun shaped tool used to summon Personas, and awakened his persona. It first appeared as a powerful, dark being that killed the large shadow. After doing so, it reverted back to its original form as Orpheus. Using Orpheus, the main protagonist was able to fend off the normal Shadows that appeared afterwards.
The fatigue from awakening to his persona made the protagonist unconscious for a week. During the time, he was resting in a hospital bed. In his dream, the protagonist encountered the Velvet Room, a dimension apart from reality and time where the room master, Igor, explained the recent events and the importance of Social links to Personas. Social links are the power of relationships with other people that enhance the Personas that the protagonist fuses in the Velvet Room. He quickly recovered and returned to school.
The night after the day he woke up, the Chairman explained to the protagonist the effects of the Dark Hour, the time period that occurs after midnight, resulting in a hidden hour of the day where Shadows roam. Only certain people can experience the Dark Hour. The protagonist then joined SEES, the organization set with the goal to fight the Shadows.
The night after, Akihiko moved Junpei into the dorms, introducing him as a person who recently awakened their Persona.
The night after, Akihiko and Misturu took the protagonist, Yukari and Junpei to explore Tartarus, the tower that appeared in place of the school during the Dark Hour. They gained experience while exploring the first floor of the tower . [/SPOILER]
