"I found the stairs!"

Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage (Finished!)

Monokuma folded his arms. "Okay, which of you boneheads told an infinite about Alice Parker?"

All of the carnage sisters pointed at Geina. "Hey! I was really fuckin' pissed, alright? Alexandria ran off and didn't want to play with us anymore."

"R-really!?" the cute carnage sister giggled. "That upset you that much?"

Geina looked away "M-maybe. I ain't sayin' shit."

Nariko shuttered. "Misunderstandings make me so upset."

"If I had a honeycomb for every time..." The bear snorted. “There will be consequences for this.” The carnage sisters all shivered and backed away from their father's throne. “Anyway mister poet, as the others have said, Alice Parker is the fifth, unloved daughter of Dr. Killgood. She was named after a woman who almost had her name changed to Alice Gallo, but that's a story for another time.” the bear quielty giggled. “I'm typically not this forthcoming about my daughters, but what Alice Masson said is correct. She wants to be free, and every successfully executed blackened brings her closer to freedom. You can rest assured that she told you the truth believing that it would bring the blackened down.”

Bliss's eyes widened when Mary told her that the note might not be for Jezebel. “Really!? I mean, I think it could refer to Jezebel but...” Bliss looked at the note in front of her. “It's definitely a bit cryptic, who else could it refer to?”

Jezebel leaned on her podium, carefully looking at everyone around herself. “Hmmm... ” Her grin widened to the point that it was almost touching the corners of her eyes. “Bitchin' job Noel, You totally confirmed the wallet leaver and wallet retriever are the same person!”

“Can we really assume that?”

“Well doy! We so used it to confirm the trickster was the blackened, right?” She placed her hands on her hips. “Because like oh my god, I know who it is!” She slapped her hands together before going on. “If we consider all the tre important points of the case, like that Zachary is innocent, The trickster is not, who the notes cover, who had acess to Alice Parker, you can only come to one totally shocking, totally zlint, totally grody revelation.” She pointed across the court at a particular infinite. “And that is that barf bag Shaun is the culprit!”

Shock and Awe

“Shaun!?” Bliss's voice was practically screeching. “It can't be!”

“It so totally is, and I'm just as disgusted as you are!”

Bliss groaned and looked away from the clown. “I can't believe this without proof.”

“Don't worry, I'll totally remove all doubt dickweed here is anything but guilty!” Jez cracked her knuckles before tucking her hands behind her back. “So like the only people who could be a trickster are Zachary and Shaun. And it's totally not Zachary. So like, it's Shaun.”

“Now listen here buster!” Bliss jammed her finger down on top of her podium. “Say that all you want, but we won't blindly believe Zachary is innocent!”

“Betty wants the facts huh?” Jezebel shrugged. “If Marianne kept my buzzer, it would be so easy for him to retrieve it from Marianne's room. Once she died, that noid would have her E-handbook.”

“Eh...” Bliss recoiled.

“Zachary's arrows def left his room. Shaun could have totally stolen them from the dojo.” Jezebel tipped her head to the side, still grinning. “And the murderer totally happened in his room right? He so smuggled all of that stuff inside with his big jacket. Who would have thought to look?”

Bliss hugged herself. “But, Shaun...”

“The wallet totally had something incriminating in it, which is so why he left it with Parker.” She leaned on her podium. “But he must have known someone might talk to Parker, so he came back to retrieve it.”

Bliss closed her eyes. “Shaun wouldn't do that to Marianne...”

“That's totally why a penis breath like Shaun would do those things.” Jez's head tipped left and right. “He's so playing with your feelings, that's what a trickster does best.”

Bliss's eyes were wet when she looked at the web designer. “Shaun, you didn't do it, right?”

Guess what you forgot, @addamas?

Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage (Finished!)

Jezebel raised an eyebrow, still bearing a smile. “Gag me with a spoon, you totally got the detective one wrong. Max is so not the most like a detective, especially if he's laying down accusations on Baldwin #1” She shook her finger in Max's direction. “I think the spider one was totally for max. Like, a spider with half as many eyes would not see things very well. Other than that, your guesses look zlint. She pointed at Zachary. “And this guy, a trickster? In another life maybe, but we're really good at lying. Like, no one's figured out I use to be a hippopotamus yet.

“Wha!?” Bliss recoiled in shock.

“See how quickly I got that Betty? Zachary is so not a trickster. ” her grin widened.

“Hmph!” The nanny folded her arms.

Ice's eyes darted between Zachary and Calvin, not able to keep the annoyed frown off his face. Finally, he brought his hand up to massage his temples, messing up the bandage around his head even more. “Would the two of you please can it? Both of you need to shut you're bloody traps! You eggs are so loud that I can't even hear myself think with the two of you mouthing off to each other!” Ice groaned. “The trickster has had every opportunity to reveal themselves. We need to look at this at a different angle.” Ice looked around the room, meeting eye contact with each patient individually except for the two punks. “Does anyone remember seeing anything suspicious? Is there a testimony that could help identify the trickster? This bloody prison already has one. Jezebel, as the current Infinite Trickster, what's your take on this?”

Bliss turned to Jezebel. “Didn't Daimyon ask you earlier if you knew about there being another trickster? I don't think you answered him.”

“Like, no way!” She giggled before folding her hands under her chin. “I totally can't believe I'm not the only one.”

Harem roleplay?

@WanderingDragon

Give all the characters really good reasons to come together, but you've still got a large group of people mingling together in a romantic manner. Be it a harem relationship where everyone wants "that D," or some type of weird love octagon filled with bisexual woman and a hetro dude.

I'm having difficulty grasping what it is that you're looking for. If I really mince the first post you do say something about how you want your character to bring everyone together. Typically any team of people would have a leader. You could do a squad based RP where your character is a leader of sorts and all of the players form up under you. be them police officers, or members of a the school's book club. While I wouldn't call that a harem, that does sound more in line with what you want.

<Snipped quote by BrokenPromise>

I'd do this with both the players acting as omniscient narrators, or at least as the girl characters, leaving the male lead to an NPC role. Because once the MC starts going down one girl's "route," the others will feel left out and grow frustrated with the game.

Unless, of course, the MC gives equal doses of attention to many girls, in which case he becomes (IMO) less likeable as a character, which also harms the game.

The genre isn't well-suited to group play, least of all when you enter it with selfish intentions.

@pugbutter

I would say that another possibility would be for one player to be MC and the other to be all dem chickz. Then if MC does decide to take a certain character, it's not a big deal.

Harem roleplay?

I think they're pretty bad, honestly. They are seldom more than wish fulfillment self-inserts.

I mean, they can be done well. If the "wimpy male" has a less than ideal situation that could create some drama. Maybe all of his suitors know he's incredibly rich, and his parents just want to marry him off. Or maybe all of the girls are spirits/demons of some sort that want his soul for whatever reason. Or perhaps the guy actually is really desirable, and the girls that are after him aren't, and try to make sure better woman don't come anywhere near him. Making the RP about the girls interactions with each other would also make things more interesting for them as players.

But if you're more interested in making a fantasy than a story, maybe try the 1x1 section.

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

@Odin I was more referring to bio length, but it could be argued that a good CS will show players failing to read the OOC in other areas. I don't think a bio section is a bad thing, but I don't think it's always essential. Grim's suggestion is one alternative.

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

I've found no real correlation between a roleplayer's ability to fill out a bio section and their writing ability. Nor do I see any link between bio length and RP success rates. How effective they are needs to be evaluated on a case by case basis, but it ultimately depends on how the GM chooses to run things.

I don't mind filling out bios, but it's typically not very clear how much or what type of information the GM is looking for. I like to surprise other players, so I usually keep the bios pretty light. But it also depends on how the OOC is written up. Obviously I'm not going to write a 2K word backstory if you're going to describe the world in two paragraphs.

@addamas

I'm just going to admit I have no idea who those two characters on the right are. I do think Junko would be the hardest opponent if only because of her "reverse poker face."

It's boss.

@AimeChambers

Chest isn't nearly hairy enough, haha!

Probably one of the better genderswaps I've seen for Junko. I don't think she's a character who really lends herself to having her gender changed. It's really hard for a guy to be everything Junko is and not come across as overly eccentric. Ibuki would be a character who is more easily genderswapped. Her accessories are more associated with punk than a particular gender, and her playful nature works well for either sex.

Not Danganronpa, but related

@AimeChambers

I do this with almost all of my villains nowadays, and I can honestly say the players never hesitated to destroy them. Though most of that was over a D&D campaign where the players would burn down an orphanage if it meant getting 10 extra EXP.
