Persona 3: Gertrude is a 31-year-old female fashion designer. She has worked with a major tailoring retailer for years, and finds herself constantly called upon to offer fashion advice. With the advent of PK3k, Gertrude has an easier time providing quick advice to her friends. With a glance at the two types of shoes they're deciding between, or questions of what color to wear for an evening out, she can give her feedback with a single button press. Her friends awe always grateful for her input, and her ability to fit in advice on her own time makes the service far more useful than traditional phone calls or urgent texts.
