"So you're bleeding, huh?" Kotori made her way across the dark room towards Mizuki, kneeling down and examining her ankle. "...I don't know much about wounds, but you should probably wrap that up." The girl scanned the room for some sort of cloth, but could only make out the ropes on the ground in the darkness. Is my bag still here? I think I had a few useful things in there, she wondered as she patted the dirt floor around her in an attempt to find something other than the scattered ropes.

The girl supposed she wouldn't miss the ribbons in her hair, so she combed through her hair, yanking out all the ribbons she could find. Kotori removed a few from her dress as well, saving a few for later. (She did regret wearing the dress that particular day - it was already starting to get in the way, and they hadn't even gotten out of the room yet.) "That's all I have, but it should help a little." She stood back up, extending a hand to offer Mizuki the ribbons. Ah, well, that was the best she could do for now. Stopping the bleeding seemed like the reasonable thing to do, but Kotori didn't know much other than that.

The girl suddenly realized she had forgotten to introduce herself. "Oh, and you can call me Kotori, Mizuki-chan and... you two," she said, giving them a glance, "So are you two going to introduce yourselves, hmm?~"

As another voice started to speak, Kotori couldn't pinpoint who it was. Research facilities and someone called 'Jabberwocky', she repeated to herself rather dubiously, Mutant creatures trying to kill... us? That was so cheesy sounding to her that it barely got through her shield of skepticism. Besides, she was fairly sure it was extremely unlikely anyone would want to randomly snatch a group of teenagers off the streets. "And how do we know we can believe you? Let me guess - this is a prank," she said, the doubt in her voice clearly showing through.

Saint or Sinner? An experiment in human morality. IC/OOC

Alright, can you clarify a little more about the setting? Also, what level of literacy is this roleplay going to be at?

Leaking Worlds

Shiori couldn't help but scowl now. Dear god were they annoying. Why couldn't they just leave him alone?

"...Other door?" he asked suspiciously. Why does she even want to know that? He was just a little curious, but struggled to not let it show. Of course, the boy didn't want to give the others a chance to take advantage of this. But he couldn't help himself as he started to blabber. "No. No, I haven't opened it yet." Backing into the classroom and leaving the current door ajar, he stopped right beside the other door. Shiori looked it up and down, but couldn't see anything particularly interesting about it.

"You mean this?" he finally blurted out, unable to hold his thoughts in anymore. "Huh. Well, it doesn't look too special to me," he mused in a slightly mocking tone of voice. He placed his hand on the doorknob, twisting it and about to push it open.

Kotori's eyes slowly blinked open as she lay on the dirt ground, stirring uneasily. Was that someone nudging at her? Her gaze moved to the boy standing beside her, blinking against the sudden light from his flashlight. A sleepy smile made its way onto her face as she blinked a few times. "Just five more minutes," she muttered almost inaudibly, "I'm not going to be late for school, I promise." As her eyes adjusted to the light, however, she soon realizing she wasn't exactly in her bedroom. Or anywhere she recognized, for that matter.

Her eyes shot wide open as she immediately stumbled onto her feet, alarmed. Loosing control of herself and letting out a frantic hiss for a split moment, Kotori soon recomposed herself and caught her breath, . Gaze darting all over the room, she quickly concluded this place was most definitely somewhere she didn't want to be.

She didn't seem to be alone, though. There was the boy who had woke her up, another girl (was she bleeding?) and ... something else. She gave the man a brief glance, but then averted her gaze as she instead started to wonder exactly where she was. How had she even gotten here, anyhow? There were dozens of questions floating in her mind in a jumbled, incoherent mess. It was probably best for her to not voice these thoughts until they were less jumbled, she knew, so she kept quiet for the most part. Well, at least she could ask them if they knew what was going on.

"Alright, where are we?" she quipped as she completely regained her composture, her usual grin abruptly plastering itself onto her face. It was rather unfitting considering the circumstances, but Kotori brushed it off. None of the others looked to be the type capable of keeping the moral up, so she appointed herself as the one. (Judging by the look of the rest of the group, she thought herself to be the best for the job, anyhow.) "Actually, more importantly, I should probably get to know you two first.~" She smiled serenely as she waited for an answer.

But gllancing around at the others, she noticed the boy was rather riled up. Kotori only managed to catch the last few words of the announcement, but couldn't make any sense of it. Chi-chan? Ryuko? Who are they? She knew she had just missed something important, but couldn't help but feel uncomfortable knowing the other two knew more than her.

Alright, that should help. I'll have the post up for the white queen shortly.~ :3

Summer Camp: A Survival Horror Mystery Roleplay

Tentatively interested.

((I realized her having long hair (as well as a dress that can only get the in way) opens up a bunch of possibilities for the ways she could die. :p It would be pretty funny to have her hair getting caught on things all the time and putting her in danger because of it, as well.))

The White Queen

Height: 165 cm / 5'4" | Weight: 138 lbs | Hair Color: Baby blue | Eye Color: Aquamarine | Skin-tone: Light

---

Name:
Nokio, Kotori

Age:
16

History:
Kotori, growing up, had been something of a pessimist as well as an extremely unhappy individual. (She's most probably to have picked up her pessimism from her rather cynical parents and older sibling.) Later, however, they realized their influence on their daughter and started to regret it. They started encouraging her, seemingly out of the blue, to have a more positive outlook. At this point, it was already too late, however - Kotori had a rather dark, if not outright cynical mindset. As the years passed, her parents and dwindling number of friends started to get fed up with her attitude and pressured her to be more cheerful / positive all the time. She quickly became aware her parents weren't going to stop bothering her unless she what they wanted her to. At first, the very thought was off limits to her, but, eventually, she decided to give it a tentative try. Kotori found herself starting to, surprisingly, enjoying this.

Although this change of attitude was more of her putting on a facade than anything else, the people around her encouraged her to keep it up. Although at first, she found it irritating and considered giving it up, she soon changed her mind. Now, she could only see this guise as something beneficial, and tried her hardest to upkeep it. (Now, as it's a permanent part of her personality, she finds it nearly impossible to revert back to her old ways.)

Eventually, Kotori became rather well known in her school for her 'compassion', as well as her 'kindness'. Her false attitude quickly found its place in her life - it was the only reason people even paid attention to her at all, she soon found out. Eventually, her classmates began to come to her for help (more specifically, emotional support / comfort and someone to talk to). This was when Kotori finally realized the golden opportunity she had to take control of her classmates. She started using her growing reputation to undermine and mislead people she disliked, usually on a whim or shallow reasons. By now, she thought of this as her making up for her lack of control earlier in her life, and as some sort of payback for the people who had disagreed with her. It was also rather self indulgent behavior on her part, as it made her feel smug being the one who was in the position to mess with people's feelings. Kotori also hates it when other people start to remind her the cheerful attitude is just a guise, as this will cause her to lash out / become defensive.

She had been late making her way home from school one day when she had decided to deviate from her normal route, taking a shortcut. What Kotori didn't realize was that there had been someone following her - soon enough, she blacked out. When she woke up in Greeneburg, she found herself starting to panic. Clinging onto the small bit of reason still left in her, Kotori quickly concluded she had to take things into her own hands before the entire situation went to chaos. After all, what group would be a group without someone to keep the morale up?

Personality:
Kotori is fairly energetic individual, and is constantly trying to boost the group's morale with her strange mix of both a peppy and comforting attitude. She appears to be quite compassionate, as she apparently helps others 'because it's the right thing to do'. Accompanied with the warm smile on her face, she's often labeled as the 'reasonable' one of the group. While the 'reasonable' trait does apply to her most of the time, it's severely impeded during any sort of stressful situation. During this particular situation, she's mostly likely to become rather biased and base her decisions in personal preferences rather than logic or reason.

However, occasionally, she does seem to be annoyingly cheerful, reaching the point where you start to wonder if she's just faking it. That assumption would be correct, actually, as Kotori does fake the more positive parts of her personality. This goes to hide her tendencies of being something of a control freak, resulting in her somewhat manipulating the group's emotions while still acting as the 'emotional support'. She doesn't do this to try and cause the group to fail, but merely on the whim of having control over as many things as possible. She seems to be obsessed with this idea, as she's afraid she'll lose control and everyone will panic, the situation then spiraling out of control from there.

She's extremely biased towards certain people, and will constantly make herself a pain to whoever she doesn't fancy. Although she seems like the sort of person someone should trust, as soon as she's put under pressure, she'll blaming everything on someone she dislikes. (Due to her being somewhat self centered, the idea that she herself may be the problem will never cross her mind.) Kotori also hates having the spotlight put on her, and will take being asked what to do (especially in tight situations) as provocation. If accused of manipulating others, she'll become passive aggressive (possibly outright aggressive, as well). If stressed to her limit, she'll go berserk at even the most innocent of statements, possibly lashing out physically at the others. Despite her attitude being a cover for her manipulation, she's still the cheerful one of the group, and will continue to provide emotional support for most of the group. (With the exception of whoever gets on her bad side, of course.)

Kotori's also rather clingy to the people she thinks to be 'interesting', as she soon develops a curiosity to know more about them. If this continues, it evolves into an almost stalker-like obsession with the individual. (However, this isn't any sort of romantic obsession, as she's asexual. It's more of an interest in studying the individual's movements and habits, and getting to know everything about them. Kotori likes to describe it as 'admiring' the individual.) As well as being rather clingy personality wise, Kotori also has the habit of literally clinging onto others, usually in the form of latching herself onto someone's arm. This could be described as her way of 'hugging' others, although she sometimes does actually tackle hug people.

Likes:
Neat, tidy things | white and blue | birds | giving out free hugs~ | finding petty reasons to dislike others

Dislikes:
Red | pressure / stress | deviating from plans | 'dull' people

Other:
As for the idea, I was thinking there would maybe be some sort of chess game where the characters face off one another (or something else)? And then, if they fail, they're injured severely in one way or another, but don't die to prolong the suffering. Or maybe there could be some sort of mutated vulture-like creatures who don't attack characters until they're nearly dead (but still conscious) and then devour them? (I don't really know, I'm just throwing out ideas right now. :p)

Which character archetype are you going to apply for? Most of them are open except for mystery bitch, the riddler, and crazy yandere person.Also, I think Chez is applying for mad hatter archetype if I remember right.

I'm going for the White Queen, since I feel like her personality is out of my comfort zone. It's pretty fun doing new things once in a while. :p
