A ton of lore dump on Casino Chaos since I’m starting to feel a little self conscious about my choices
Okay so listen. I’m ALWAYS like ALWAYS scared that I’m making Casino Chaos not accurate. But like… I feel like for me since Casino Chaos isn’t the EXACT May Madness I don’t think people should hold it against me too much 😭
Like the events of May Madness are more referenced rather than being a main plot. Like certain scenes, and like… uHhHhHh some traits of the characters being affected by the environment around them.
Such as The May Madness Trio (Caleb244, Ellernate, Itrapped) being misogynistic in Casino Chaos. Yes I am aware that none of those people have an evidence in being misogynistic. But the reason they’re all misogynistic is because of the society they live in. Casino Chaos is an extremely shitty place, and in general the entire world of casino chaos is mostly misogynistic. Why? Because they’re extremely patriarchal rather than matriarchal. The only matriarchal thing we see is Friede’s mother, Mariah technically running the Trifoglios in secret, making Friede do all the dirty work he likes while she does things more strategically.
(Btw thanks for the person that pointed that out about the misogyny thing, I did not wanna get slimed out 🥹)
Lemme just say I HATTTEEEEEE prim and Proper Itrapped. “b-b-but! Romulus!!! Your Itrapped is literally prim and proper!!! owO” STFU. Okay for the record again, I didn’t know ANYTHING about May madness until like… after I dropped forsaken completely. Also the only reason Itrapped looks “prim and proper” is literally because EVERYONE ELSE IS ALSO PRIM AND PROPER. Again. This is another situation where world building affects a character 🥹 by social norms you cannot enter a casino without looking prim and proper. But just so yall know Itrapped hates the prim and proper clothes. He’d wear
So speaking of entering a casino... soooo in technicality all the mafias do not like the Hacker’s Regiment since.. they’re just enemies to everyone at this point. (It’s because 007n7 has fucked up their system in their line of work) that means anyone who’s a member… will most likely never be allowed entry. And that brings us to Caleb244….Caleb244 yes, crossdresses. And I am well aware of the fact he’s only catfished Kirbycaden. (I think. Idk if he did catfish anyone else) but let’s just say… Ellernate and Itrapped like to mess with Caleb244 and just… makes him cross dress so they can gain entry. So in a sense Caleb244 always has to catfish people. It’s like Ellernate and Itrapped telling Caleb244 to go charm the bouncer and hope they land a nat 20 kinda thing. (Which by the way they always force him and bribe him with some money)
Another thing to mention. The Hacker’s Regiment also known as the Heart Mafia. 007n7 is their leader, and C00lkid is his (failed) clone. Now, I’m mentioning this because one of the main reasons why the Hacker’s Regiment has so many members is because 1) most of them are based off of myths, exploiters, and hackers. And 2) C00lkid goes out of his way to indoctrinate them into the regiment. (Usually people who are poor and unfortunate). All Itrapped, Caleb244, and Ellernate USED to be poor until they were indoctrinated into the mafia. So yes. Everyone in that mafia is hella rich.
I mean that’s just some of the things that make me feel slightly self conscious about Casino Chaos, since it just feels like.. a hot mess. It definitely was a hot mess.
