Not a lot to report at the moment. There's a hurricane approaching the USA and I'm expecting to lose internet access for a few days. Hard to say exactly when that'll happen, but if I'm absent, that's why.

Even though the RP is moving really slow right now, I'm still working on the case(s). I'm expecting the western release of Danganronpa to drum up more interest for the RP, so we may have some new infinites coming in.

Good luck everyone, and stay safe.

Alright, this night of carnage is going to be two collabs. One will be Krista trying to find the teli, and the other will be the anti-Alexandria team. So yea, look forward to that.

The cyrus/Bliss thing happened briefly before mercy entered the dinner, so if mercy is still in the dinner, she'll encounter bliss.

Also, I'm considering on holding off on posting the motive until next month. Not because I'm not ready, but I'd just like to see a little bit more interaction going before someone dies. While this isn't a slice of life RP, it isn't strictly a murder/court simulator either.

Alright, just letting everyone know that the case is more or less ready to go, so you can expect a motive post towards the end of the week. I realize we have three collaborations going on right now, and it is not mandatory that they be done before the motive gets dropped. But I would like to start the case early November in hopes of getting the case done before Christmas cheer puts too much strain on your posting activity.

In layman's terms: Expect one of you sorry bastards to wind up dead come November!



But yea, no rush on the collabs. It would be wise to start thinking about how you can tie things up now however.

In other news: Some of you may have noticed the RP's header image has been changed from that very novic-ish pink smear to this:



Thanks Aewin, this looks much more danganronpa-esqu!

The murder post will go up in juuuuust a few seconds. pay no mind to the girl behind the teadybear.



Only important details I have to share in this announcement is that I will be handling the handing out of truth bullets a bit differently. only that I'll be giving truth bullets to people who ask for them. This way people who are short on time don't have to worry about finding a clue. But hold off on showering me with PMs for now. I'm also going to give everyone a few days to write a response to what happened before Monokuma shows up with the ol' Monokuma file #2.

Hmm, that was a lot shorter than I thought it would be. Well, I'll get to posting.

Hey how's it going!

I actually made this account because I was interested in this RP, originally I was planning to try and make my own on another site.

Are you guys still accepting characters for this roleplay or am I too late to the party? Judging by the most recent posts I recognize that a case/murder has just started and that it may be hard to justify adding a character at this time, so I would understand if it's impractical for me to join.

@Warpcircuit Hello, fello fan!

Yes there's room, but It would probably not be very practical for you to join at this time. The other players would be too busy gathering evidence and throwing wild accusations at each other. This RP does rely heavily on collabs and character interactions. I could probably find a way to squeeze you in, but you probably wouldn't enjoy it.

Another idea: It may be possible to put you in one of the other killing games. I had toyed with the idea of bringing back some old NPCs after the trial, so you could be among them when they get shuffled back to "this" killing game. I'm not sure how much of Tower of Carnage's lore you're familiar with, but that would let you develop your character a little bit before jumping in with the veterans. Though this could last for a month or longer, so you may wish to not join, or simply join after the trial.

Of course, this also gives you plenty of time to think of a really cool character.

If you have any ideas or questions, I'm all ears.

That's the conclusion I've come to too, it definitely would make more sense to add characters between cases rather than during cases. I also completely agree that it's not worth it to squeeze a character in at this point. There's not a lot of time for a character to build relationships and really do anything for an entire class trial if they join then. And even then if everything worked out, it'd still be a major hassle for most people involved.

I'm only somewhat familiar with the lore of Tower of Carnage. The extent of my knowledge is only whatever's in the OOC Thread and the more recent posts in the IC. I've read about some of the characters but only fleetingly and largely to get a feeling for how I should structure my own character should I make one.

Another thing to note is that I'm only familiar with the face value of collabs. Where I hail from, individuals just make their own posts for their own characters. It actually makes a lot of sense for a Roleplay largely so heavily based on characters to transpire this way. I suppose that it's not that hard to understand but if there's gonna be some downtime it may make sense for me to try and learn in said downtime.

As far as your other idea, I don't actually know enough about the Roleplay to decide whether that's a good idea or a bad idea. It'd really depend on what that'd entail and/or what the implications would be. Beggars can't be choosers, y'know. I'd be interested but as the GM I think this is something best left to your judgement.

I've actually already figured out largely what kind of character I'd make (this isn't the first time I've thought about joining an existing roleplay) but I could always spend more time smoothing them out. I'm also a big fan of throwing adobe products at my applications, so I could make a cool sort of gallery to accompany my application in the meanwhile. There are things that I'd have to clear up with you as the GM specifically before the Roleplay. When making a character, I always like to have a nice and large backstory centered on one event or a series of similar events as I believe that the backstory is by far the most crucial aspect of a good character. However, I recognize that this timeline is relatively delicate so I'd rather keep the backstory free from something that'd imply anything elsewhere besides my own character. It'd probably be best should I apply if I just wrote a few backstories, bounced them off you, and then fleshed whichever one stuck out.

Anyways, I know it sort of cheesy but I just gotta thank your for your time. I know it must be a lot of work to manage this roleplay, especially due to the tentative nature of trials and murders so I really must commend the amount of work you must have put into this. I've looked at a ton of Danganronpa roleplays and out of all of them (even the dead ones) this one had the best premise and was the most well kept. Most of the time the roleplays died because of the GM after less than a month, so the fact that you kept this up for a year is really commendable!

@WarpcircuitWell, I was not expecting such a detailed response.

Most of the important stuff is in the OCC "story so far" segment of the "truth bullet" section. If you've read that, then you're familiar with all but the most recent developments. I plan on adding the events of chapter 2 to the OOC after the trial, but not too much story wise has happened yet.

It's really not that complicated, collabs I mean. You're just taking turns passing paragraphs back and forth in real time. the good news is that your character's slow moving convo with another character can be done in a few sittings instead of a month. though it does prevent other characters from joining in, and too many people in a collab at once can slow things down. Not everyone likes them, I find them to be very useful in the right situations. This RP simply presents many situations where collabs are more preferable.

The obvious cons that I see would be that I would need to divide time between the trial and your character's situation. How problematic this is depends on your posting speed. And because all of the NPCs are just player characters that are controlled by people who are no longer with us, you would basically just be writing with me and yourself. If you crave interaction with more than 1 person, this is not an idea route, especially if you're a fast poster.

I'm definitely open to talking about the background of your character via pms and such. Even though this is a DR RP, you'll probably have the best luck if you don't try to put your character too close to any of the games/books/shows. But ultimate despair had a slew of masterminds, at least in this roleplay, so there are plenty of non-cannon antagonists to choose from.

Thank you for the kind words. This does take a lot to run, but I enjoy it because of all the effort everyone puts forward. If you're the social type, you may be interested in jumping on our discord server. No one is really on right now though, haha!

@BrokenPromise Sorry! I didn't mean to write so much haha but I suppose it was pretty long. I guess I got a little excited.

I'll be sure to pay a visit to that page sometime tomorrow. I'm a student in the USA, so I actually get tomorrow off so I'll have some time then.

Yeah. I agree with you in regards to starting too soon. It wouldn't be as fun to just roleplay with one person. For that reason, I think it'd be best if we went with the first course of action (to wait). A month or two isn't terribly long, especially considering that I'm late to the roleplay.

I didn't mean to imply that I'd have relations with older characters sorry! I've definitely read the rules and I know the dos and don'ts.

I've already done a little bit of work on my character and their backstory. In fact, considering that I have the day off tomorrow it would be awesome if I could talk to you about it then! I know I'm asking a bit and I'm new and everything so it's fine if you're busy. I've got something to do in the morning but as far as I can tell I'm home all afternoon.

Discord is a great way to contact me too, I use it all the time. If you'd have me, I'd definitely sold on this roleplay, so it'd be neat to meet people and make acquaintance, especially when there's a chance I'd collaborate on a post with them. That'd probably help me get rolling in the first few parts of this roleplay too.

Thanks for everything!
