Laughter's The Best Medicine [Motive 1]

It's been a week since the class first met Monocat. The notion of the game hasn't really set in, most of the people were left annoyed above all. It's a little after lunch when a new announcement comes from the cheerful kitty. "Attention class of Requiem! Please gather to the front of the faculty office right away!" 

 Kids and teachers alike make their way to the front of the office, but not inside. Monocat is patiently waiting beside a fancy new bulletin board on the outer wall. There's a banner up top that reads "MOTIVE: DAY 1" with a little cat face beside it. It's kind of cute. With everyone there, the cat puffs her chest out and starts to speak.

"Alrighty class! I know my little announcement came a bit quick... Hopefully this one will help you all more! Nyaha, it's time to enter our motive period! You remember that game you're in, I mentioned motives before, anybody remember that? Okay." She nods, and with a flick of her tail, a paper appears on the board. It's one of those boxed bulletins, so no stealing. "This is your furst motive. You all like TV, who doesn't. What about sitcoms? You know the ones. With canned laughter after cheesy jokes and character's doing outlandish embarrassing things for the sake of entertainment? Nyaha, those are my favorite! Sooo, this is what your school life is going to become! Don't miss your marks now, alright? The audience will start to get a little mad if nothing good happens." 

The paper she put up seems to simply repeat what she's told with a few more details. That canned laughter? Yeah, that's going to follow you. Each student will have a personal laughter track following them, it's impossible to escape or tell exactly where it's coming from. Others won't be able to each other's tracks. This doesn't sound so bad... Oh, but don't get caught daydreaming. Those comical little thought clouds will appear to show your inner most thoughts to all you're around. We wouldn't want that, now would we? As the motive starts, the laugh tracks seem to be at least somewhat appropriate. Maybe you say or do something amusing, and the omnibus voices laugh. But then they start to cut in at random times. You said something entirely not funny, you're just washing your hands, making your bed, it's not that funny when you trip. It's the simplest or most random things. Then the voices get mean. They start to laugh purely at your misfortune or stresses, laughing loud and consistently when you try and sleep. Certain traits or stereotypes will start to influence people more as well. You know how sitcom character's have their "role", think like that. Seductive vampires, touchy werewolves, evil witches, etc. This motive is really just a big joke, isn't it?

All The Birds Are Singing That You're Gonna Die.

Having seen their headmistress disappear as quickly as she’d appeared, it was time to head back out. They take maybe five steps out on the path before they’re stopped by a new face.

A small… Housecat? Everyone is sure they haven’t seen this cat before. The little cat is sitting right in the middle of the path.

“Hello, hello! First class of Requiem High, yes? So many fresh faces! And some that aren’t so fresh, but that’s okay. We don’t judge here. Now, you just met headmistress. You all can call me Monocat for obvious reasons. I don’t like to complicate things, so I’ll be upfront. All of you before me, are trapped here. Teachers included. None of the other teachers are here either, and those other students aren’t coming. No, I’m not talking about that silly spell that keeps you on the grounds either. Though that’s still in effect, so you can’t try to leave. It’s you all, me, and headmistress. I regret to inform you that you’re going to play a game while here. Until the game is complete, no one can leave. Every few weeks, we’re going to give you a reason to kill another classmate or teacher. All of you will investigate the murder, and a trial will take place. If you don’t catch the killer, well… I’ll get further into the details as the time comes around, alright? The important thing is that you play our game right, you’ll be allowed to leave on those special little terms. Pretty nifty!” She stands up, split tail flicking behind her. “If nobody kills anyone else, you’re going to get in a lot of trouble… So be careful out here, alright? It’s pretty simple. I believe in you all!” Monocat chirps to the group. Before more can be said, the little cat disappears in a puff of smoke. Oh… Dear.

A Brand New Day, The Sun Is High...

It’s a brand new day. The sun is just beginning to creak through the children’s windows as their alarms go off. Sleepy kids stumble out of bed, brushing their hair and getting dressed, normal morning activities. Things pretty much mirror the day prior. Toward the end breakfast, the announcement system clicks to life.

“Dear students of Requiem High, I hope you all are having a wonderful morning! When you all have finished eating, please make your way in an orderly fashion to our faculty office.” It’s a feminine voice, a kind sounding one.

As silverware or otherwise clatters down onto plates, the first class of Requiem High, followed by their two supervising teachers, chats their way to the office building. It’s better not to wait. Cold air blasts them walking into the front area. It’s what you’d expect for a school office. Two L-shaped desks mirror the room, each one with a few personal belongings scattered about. There’s some seating, various chairs and two couches. It’s pretty stylish and very spacious. They prepared well for their larger bodied students, which helps since there’s two and a half dragons and a naga here now.

They wait about five minutes before the door back behind the two desks opens up. A young looking figure makes her way out, closing the door behind her and standing right between the desks. She stands at a relatively small height compared to the crowd, smiling to each of them warmly. Long black hair is put up into a high ponytail, silent bells standing out on top of her hair ribbon. Her outfit is monochrome, red knee-high boots bringing a pop of color. “Thank you all for coming so soon! I am your Headmistress, Constanze. I am the current person in charge of this school. I apologize for such a delay in our meet and greet. Things here have been busy, I’m sure you all have assumed as much. I do hope our other faculty has treated you all well. Complaint boxes are available here in our front office, and you are always welcome to report poor treatment to another staff member. As any of you who read our schedule knows, classes will begin next week for all of you. Before you ask, yes another class was supposed to arrive yesterday. Sadly several of the students got into a tussle. Their arrival is delayed as we sort out the situation. Everyone is okay now, do not fret.” Looking more closely over the group of kids, her smile widens. “My, look at you all. We have high hopes for each of you kids… If you need anything, you all know where to find me. Take care.” Constanze takes a small step back and bows. Standing straight back up the woman leaves the room through the back door. You can hear the sound of it locking behind her. Guess if you needed something, it’ll have to wait.

[Game: Start] Remember All Those Lock Down Drills That You Had To Do In Middle School?

The first week of being in school has ended. It’s been a relatively peaceful week, classes not quite ready to start. A new class should be scheduled to start moving into the dorms, a process set up to prevent stressful crowds for their first year. The student’s alarms sound off to call them to breakfast, a classic American breakfast is on the menu this morning. No more than two teachers meet paths with the students on their way to the cafeteria, the others must be busy. It’d be best to not bother them. This is what’s becoming normal for the kids. It’s been an adjustment period for many of them. They eat, some chat, they leave. It’s all a free period. The day goes by extremely normally. Nothing special happens. Their history and elemental magic teacher check in time to time, both being kept relatively busy on preparing lesson plans.

But, that’s the thing. Nothing special happened. Weren’t other kids supposed to show up today? The kids are sure their schedule showed a new class to arrive. Perhaps that was just a misprint? Maybe things just are behind on schedule. It’s almost to be expected. It could be an error of magic, scheduling, or perhaps some fussy students made trouble. Things can be unpredictable with an all-species school. Anyone checking up at the faculty office or the teacher's wing finds them empty. It could easily be dismissed as poor timing. The school is still growing to be the bustling campus they aim for. Growth takes work, which is what the staff is surely putting their all into. No matter, worry is to be pushed from the students minds as their bedtime bell tolls. It's best to get some rest.

Garden Ronpa v.3 is the third in the Garden Ronpa series of games. Set in the year 2137, long after Hope’s Peak has collapsed and advanced augmented reality and AI technology has become common across the globe, our students will find themselves abruptly awaking in zero gravity, having been assigned a SHSL, according to the new ID on their person. Who are all these people trapped with them? Why are they here? Why does this situation resemble the one they heard about in their history books… and what will they do now?

「 Is there any meaning to this song? 」

You find yourself in the middle of a grandiose concert hall, most of the seats sadly left unfilled. Those few who have bothered to show up all look to be just about as confused as you are. Certainly none of you are dressed for a symphony performance. Certainly none of you meant to come.

The curtain rises. A single white spotlight illuminates the stage.

「 There is no meaning to this song. 」

Be that as it may, the show’s about to start– so why don’t you come play along?

Symphony of Despair is a closed Dangan Ronpa roleplay that takes place over MSPARP, Tumblr, and Skype. Trials are Skype-based. 16-20 students will be allowed in. Apps are now open and will be closing on May 29th!

A world plunged into the depths of emptiness… A world of sorrow, regrets, anger, but mostly, despair… This is the world we live in now. Even among this truly terrible world, some things were salvaged from the wreckage. People were still able to develop new technology to fight back against this wave of despair. Others went into construction and built things anew. Finally, some people tried to recreate those pastimes and hobbies that kept people smiling, like basketball. However, it appears someone has found a way to start despair even in such an innocent game.

“Welcome to the court Ballers.”

Making the Hoops of Despair is a Tumblr and Skype based Danganronpa roleplay. It follows the same normal phases of Danganronpa, that being free time, murder, investigation, trial, and execution. Normal free time events will happen on either Tumblr, or Skype, whichever you choose, but the trials shall remain on Skype.

18 students in total will be accepted.

Applications close May 30!

[”Welcome to Greater Despair Lodge! It’s good to see you again.”]

Two years ago, a kidnapped class from Hope’s Peak Academy were put through a psychological experiment known as The Morpheus Project. Designed to test the effect of stress on dreams, it plunged the children into a virtual reality where they were forced to murder each other.

You don’t know about any of this, though. It may seem strange, but you’ve not heard a single word of these sorts of incidents. I assure you, in my capacity as your gracious host, that this is the truth. No, what fills your thoughts is the simplicity of your acceptance to the renowned Hope’s Peak Academy, which you’ve never heard of being associated with any sorts of scandals at all. To some degree, you’re likely excited.

… At least, until you wake up in a room that looks like it belongs in a hotel, with a cheerful voice summoning you to the lobby. Looking out the window before you go reveals you’re on… a mountain?! No, that can’t be right…! And what’s this about murder?!

If I were to be honest, this seems unfair. More than 30 people app in to get in this wonder rp but only like half of it got in. Wouldn't it be great to make another class?

Okay, I’m going to be really honest here with you. Mod work is a lot of work. As a mod you create a plot, a setting, and motives just to name a few things. All the content on this blog is made by us. (Save for like, some photographs of schools.) Chase alone did 20 icons for the roster in a matter of a few days. That’s a lot of fucking art. We spent hours upon hours reading through every one of the applications and then discussing them. We made spreadsheets to organize everything, worked on multiple pages for our roster, and made a schedule. We still aren’t even done putting together some other important pages like our maps. There is a massive amount of work going into this RP. Especially with different concepts like a fantasy universe to work with. As a mod, we take on a lot of roles. We have to plan out everything and make it run smoothly, in character and out. Which is what we’re here to do and signed up for. I love to mod, I wouldn’t keep being a mod if I didn’t. But we are also human. We have AFK things, school, other commitments, and also we just get tired sometimes. Does two people trying to moderate an RP with almost 40 people sound fun to me? Having to sort out all of those schedules, any social issues that come up, and drawing all the art needed for not only the roster but deaths? As well as doubling all of our writing and plot work? No. That’s a lot of fucking work.Too much work for only two people. 20 people is a lot on it’s own. RP is our hobby, we don’t want it to feel like a job. And before you try and argue to have the second class with a second blog or add more mods, that doesn’t change all the work. We’d still have to find more mods that we trust and are willing to take on all the responsibility and effort modding takes. That still leaves us with double the art, writing, blogs, formatting, etc. 

There will not be another class for this game. This doesn’t mean there won’t be a sequel, but this game of Requiem High has one class of 20 people. This is not up for change.

[requiemhigh]

Uhh, just curious but.. when do you think you'll have a definite roster up?

Our roster should be released tomorrow night! (EST) An exact time is coming soon as it’s dependent on some outside factors. Please bare with us while we get everything ready for our class!

[requiemhigh]

So, how would you be getting in touch with the players? I assume over Skype. And if so, when?

Yes! We will contact players over Skype right after the roster is released.

-Mod Furry

[requiemhigh]

Hi, um, out of curiosity, when the roster is finalized, are we allowed to give our spots away to someone else?

No. If you are accepted into the group, and you no longer want to (or can’t) play in the group, you will notify a mod to let them know. From there, your character will be removed from the roster and we’ll contact another applicant who was previously not accepted to take your position. It’s entirely decided by the mods, players cannot give their spots to someone specific. -Mod Furry

[requiemhigh]

Same anon here with the fake talent question. I kinda gave the wrong fake talent and it was supposed to be for another RP blog. This anon was the one who asked if fake talents were allowed in the app.

Please come off of anon or contact a mod on Skype for us to properly evaluate the situation. -Mod Furry

[requiemhigh]

Can I still change my fake talent?

Since this is on anon and you’ve given us no extra information, I’m going to go with no. If you want to edit something small on your application, message off anon or to one of the mods on Skype and we’ll deal with things on a case by case basis.
