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.

[Luigi's not the only one wandering around and wondering what the heck happened, that's for sure. And it only takes two bewildered students who aren't paying attention to any obstacles in front of them to collide with each other.

Needless to say, Alph was one of those bewildered students.

And so, while he was previously exploring the camp and trying to get his bearings, he now finds himself exploring the ground as he collides with something big and goes sprawling.]

H-huh? What could that have been...?

[Oh, he's muttering to himself. Not a good sign.

He's actually okay though, a bit dazed but okay. He quickly discovers that what he ran into is a person though, and he's not sure if that person is okay! He scrambles to his feet to investigate.]

I'm so sorry, sir! Are you all right?

[green_mario]

[Once Luigi gains his bearings, he immediately starts apologizing himself.]

O-oh, I'm-a fine, sorry.

[Actually, now that he knows that he's not alone...]

Hey, do you know who-a Bowser is?

[... Okay, a stupid question since everyone knows who he is, but maybe he knows if Bowser is behind this?]

[koppaite]

[Alph can help but study Luigi with great curiosity once he gets a good look at him. He's so tall...is he by chance just a really tall Hocotatian?

He's taken out of those thoughts though, and finds himself completely stumped by Luigi's question.]

Bowser? [He shakes his head.] I'm afraid not. Are they one of the "students" that was brought here?

<small.[Luckily Luigi doesn't really mind the staring from Alph, since Luigi is currently too focused on the situation at hand to worry about what other people might think of him.

Still, that comment worries him since he only has one conclusion from it.]</small>

<small>I guess this isn't the Mushroom Kingdom then...</small>

I thought he might-a be behind this.

[koppaite]

[Luigi's concern doesn't go unnoticed! Alph watches warily, now wondering who this Bowser person is.]

Is he some sort of wanted criminal? Is he known for kidnapping others?

[Kidnapping others from other worlds even, apparently. He's never heard of this Mushroom Kingdom Luigi was muttering about.]
