Smash Ronpa Test Drive

Smash Life of Mutual Killing

Guidelines
Welcome to Smash Ronpa's test drive! In lieu of a Mock Trial, due to this round's length, we'll be keeping this test drive open until the opening of the game on September 28th. Reserves will be happening on September 18th, and you can use 20 comments (from your character) on the game's application! Otherwise, this TDM is here to help you figure out how/who you might want to play, and can help you get to know some of the players in the upcoming round. Don't feel like you have to apply just because you play on the TDM!

This post is, however, exclusively open to characters who fit the round's character guidelines. In other words - Nintendo characters and other video game characters who have appeared on a Nintendo consoles. Please check out our FAQ for more detail on this, or hit up smashronpa if you have any questions about character choices or anything else!

1) ARRIVAL
You wake up comfortably enough in a nice-looking, despite the overabundance of pink everywhere. It's well-furnished and decently roomy - there's even a little fireplace in there! The only problem is that even despite the sense of familiarity some might feel, this clearly wasn't the room you went to sleep in the night before.

Welcome the Monobear Training Camp! It may take a few minutes to gather your bearings, but you'll eventually stumble into the wide open world of the camp. If you look hard enough, you might find an odd electronic device somewhere on your person - giving you access to 15 different "student profiles". It's time to figure out just where you've ended up, now isn't it?

2) LIFE IS QUITE ABSURD
By now, you're acquainted with everybody here and you're sloooowlllyyyy growing bored. Bored enough to kill? No. Bored enough to actually try and entertain yourselves in this place? Yes. Yes, you are. Thankfully, this place has plenty of ways to entertain! You might just try to cook something up in the kitchen, play around in the well-stocked arcade, and even a neat little library! There's even a large movie theater, but your enjoyment of that might be hampered by the fact that there's only one movie playing on repeat. At all times. Remember, we're trying to cause despair here.

What some might find creepy, however, is that all the rooms are far bigger than they should be. The layout of this place is...it doesn't make any sense. There are windows and pathways where there shouldn't be, and it seems as though the rooms are almost overlapping each other. Don't think about it for too long.

3) WHAT'S MY MOTIVATION
IT'S MOTIVE DAY! What's going to drive you to kill? Drive you to end of the chain? CONGRATULATIONS, IT'S HAPPENING TODAY. Either nab a motive from any of the previous rounds or invent your own!

4) AND DEATH'S THE FINAL WORD
It was bound to happen eventually. Either you're dying, or someone close to you is about to make it up the great big Warp Pipe in the sky. Either try to get a few last words out before you go, or go off and investigate in the wake of their death.

5) WILDCARD
Who even knows- do whatever you want, man! Unless it's pissing off the headmaster. Don't do that.

...wait, what? Uh, okay, what are Pokemon, exactly...? Because I'm not sure how the heck I would've missed that...

[tsungeonsanddragons]

[The answer is nanomachines. It's always nanomachines.

Gosh this is so weird. How do you explain something that's such a consistent in your life to someone with (supposedly) no experience? Might as well be explaining what an arm is.]

Pokémon are...hmm. I guess the best way to explain is their a race of living beings who live alongside humans. They come in various shapes, sizes, types, and forms, but they also possess incredible powers. Some breath fire while others can generate electricity. In ancient times, some of them were even believed to be gods.

[thejusticewagon]

...that sounds super cool! What do they look like, though? ...Well, I guess they'd all look pretty different, huh? But yeah, that sounds... kind of like dragons? I mean, humans where I'm from can cast fire magic and electricity magic and wind magic, but they need Tomes to do it.

[THAT'S AT LEAST KIND OF EASIER TO EXPLAIN TO PEOPLE...]

[tsungeonsanddragons]

There are dragon-type Pokémon. I happen to be a master at training them. The best in the world.

[Mention Lance and we might have the first murder on our hands.]

...but your world. Humans using magic; it's like something out of a fairy tale.

[thejusticewagon]

...dragon-type? So do you have, like... Pegasus-type and Wyvren-type Pokemon, too? Or maybe even just Horse-type?

[...SHE'S DEFINITELY NOT GETTING IT.]

Huh... I never thought it was that weird! I mean, you have to be really smart to do it, and hexes can get kind of out there... but it's always been pretty normal to me.
