Challenge Run ideas (Mild spoilers)

My friend and I are thinking of doing a challenge run and we need ideas.

We've come up with:

-Starting/Special weapons only (Broswagonist is stuck with the golf club until beating the optional boss in Void Quest)
-New party member replaces oldest party member (Kanji replaces Yosuke, Teddie replaces Chie, Naoto replaces Yukiko)
-All active party member social links (Kanji, Teddie, Naoto) must be as low as possible.
-Max of 5 of each healing/sp item at any time.
-Any Arcana Chance OTHER than Death or Fool MUST be declined. Death and Fool MUST be accepted.
-Only the base Personas of each Arcana can be used in battle. They can, however, be refused using stronger Personas to get better skills.
-Outside of Social Links, always select the dialogue choice that would piss people off, and/or be a complete wimp all the time.

Damn this already sounds almost impossible.

I don't care what you say, Generation II sucks.
That's just my opinion, no matter how true it may be.

No grinding. You must only kill to advance the story. No, you may not kill Shadow Yukiko's knight. No social linking; be antisocial. No items. At all. You can sell them. No Arcana chance at all.

Rogue style, you die and you're done.

See who goes the longest.

Apply whatever silly restrictions to this idea you see fit.

I think this might actually be impossible, or at least extremely difficult even on Beginner. On a New Game Plus.

Eh, maybe. I just know somebody did something close to that in P3. They had to fuse and get money like a ***** though.

- MC can only use skills active party members have.

Here's a run I came up with in about 5 minutes

-Only MC can cast spells/abilities. Other party members can only attack/use items.
-No social links, except the ones that level up automatically
-No revival during combat; if a party member dies they stay down
-No buffs at all


Personally, I think it's possible, but probably quite hard.

P4 NUZLOCKE RUN !!!

- If a teammate is knocked unconscious, he / she is considered dead, you mustn't use him / her in combat. Social links are also not allowed. Also, Persona of the arcana can no longer be used and cannot be picked or fused.
- Game Over means restarting over.
- Don't use MC's canon name
- Can only shuffle one Persona per area.
