Okay, here's the info of what your characters do/don't remember. I'll also be adding it to the 0th post, for convenience. 

[hider=What You Remember]
Your characters have forgotten a good bit of stuff. In terms of the general timeline, your character was probably in middle school when The Tragedy occured, and they have been able to survive at various beacons of civilization- such as Towa City, for example- and have been able to live mostly normal lives, the occasional despair based attack notwithstanding. Later, Hope’s Peak was refounded by a former student, and your characters were accepted as part of their 3rd class. However, you don’t precisely remember anything relating to that. Perhaps you’ll remember that Hope’s Peak had closed for a bit, for some reason, and the name Enoshima Junko will definitely be familiar- she was that model, right?
You do remember life getting a lot harder and likely having to move at a certain point in middle school, but you don’t remember what caused it. You remember certain encounters with people and events that made you suffer. Essentially, your characters remember the effects of The Tragedy, but not The Tragedy itself, or what caused it. And, of course, you don’t remember anything past entering the building on your first day at Hope’s Peak. However, your other memories are in tact. (if you need me to clarify things you character does and does not remember, let me know).
