Dani | Allen | Alicemare

[xxxx_me]

Hello hello! I'm Dani (danidanidanica) and I'll be playing Allen Llewellyn from the WOLF RPG game Alicemare! In the game he's a mostly silent protagonist with a few personality cues given, so while I'm playing from game events I'm largely pulling his personality from the novel. That said, he's pretty much a very good ten-ish year old who is doing his best and uhhhh dealing with a bunch of nightmare fairytale situations because demons? And also, amnesia was part of the equation there because the universe is opposed to this child's happiness.

It's rough.

Feel free to add me on plurk! I look forward to playing with you all ♥

[whimsicalism]

You know what's the best cure for happiness? Murder.

[soverainty]

Dani continues to play sad dead children....... truly your roots ~

Good evening. My name is Lyndon, you may know me from various other similar ventures to this one, as well as some quite unlike it, and today the heavy narrative weight falls on my shoulders and leads me to tell another melancholy chapter in the unfortunate life of Violet Baudelaire, from Lemony Snicket's series of biographical novels A Series of Unfortunate Events. However, I must also urge you to look away, and suggest roleplaying with a happier sort of child instead, like dear Gavroche or that Lena girl from the television program about the cartoon ducks. I haven't watched it myself, the last television I saw having been five years ago, unplugged and adrift in a particular sewer underneath a particular town to which I had fled under not-so-particular circumstances. But I digress.

If you must proceed further, I urge you to take a look at this post, where I have made what effort I can to lay out Violet's physical appearance, permissions, and an opt-out, a word which here means "last chance to disembark this tragic trolley," for content you may find horrifying, unsightly, or uncomfortable.

Gimmick aside, hi! I'm Lyndon, as stated above, and I'm playing Violet from ASOUE (the books, not the movie or the netflix show), her title is Very Fine Daughter and she's in Room 14! I'm going to do my level best to do all my bracket text at least sort of "in-character," imitating Daniel Handler's really specific (and really fun to imitate) prose style he uses in the series! Please do in fact check out the opt-out linked above, but otherwise hi and I'm very excited to play with y'all! I can be tracked down on plurk at lovebelievesin if you would like, and if you would not like that's also totally fine!

[whimsicalism]

I was going to say I didn't expect you to commit this much but even if that's true? I'm so glad you are.

[whimsicalism]

Hello, I'm Yue, your local mod! I also play the Queen and Cat. Sadly I don't have any non-spoilerly memes to share but I do hope your future adventures are grand while here in the Castle!

I can be found at savingdaisydiva or at namelylight#9278 on Discord. Feel free to add me on either medium! For honesty's sake, if you have any modly questions I prefer to be reached by my personal plurk or by a direct message to the mod dreamwidth account, though.

[battlestations]

Hi Yue! Thank you for putting this game together and giving me the chance to bring my eleven year old to murder, I'm looking forward to what's in store!

[byzer0]

Hello, hello! I'm Limon and I'll be bringing you 1 half of Zero from Loveless, a manga about catboys and troublesome relationships. Natsuo is a gremlin who can't feel pain and owner of a nifty eyepatch and Youji. Speaking of troublesome relationships, I also have an important opt out-post if you'd like to avoid topics of a sexual nature.

I'm super excited to play with everyone, feel free to add me on plurk at ziplines o/!

[scratchitti]

I can't wait for Neku to just keep looking at the screen like he's on the Office every time he talks to either half of Zero.

[nothingposh]

How do you do? My name is R. Not much to say here, play Gavroche.
He's a street urchin, gremlin char backed up by Hugo's endless tosh.
This is a kid who fought for liberty. Now when he fights, she'll have your head.
Here is the thing about a murdergame: everyone's equal when you're dead. :)

what? i couldn't let lyndon be the only one taking the gimmick too far. anyway, i also have a first impressions post with a couple of permissions where you can opt out of various things, such as gavroche's entire backstory and also the plot of les mis. you can add me on plurk at flyingthesky+#0332 for disco if you want! i'm so sorry in advance about this. y'all ready to learn about the june rebellion!!!! LET'S LEARN ABOUT HISTORY AND GET SAD ABOUT HOT FRENCH BOYS!!!!

[ballooncaged]

I scrolled up once I posted my comment and so reading in reverse I thought "the gimmick" was gonna be like this but no and I have to say that you made the right choice for sure

[ballooncaged]

So, that's Mizuki Okiura for you. She is the Best Girl from AI: The Somnium Files, a video game by the creator of Zero Escape now working with slightly less math gimmicks and significantly more budget. She's in sixth grade, she's living with a detective tasked with investigating the New Cyclops Serial Killer, and that's going to be everyone else's problem now!

I'm Lenga. This is actually my first murdergame besides 15 Strangers in over two years, so I'm really looking forward to re-adding people and making new friends - plurk friends at lengachan if you like! Especially if you play Animal Crossing: New Horizons because I just got that game for my birthday and am living the dream. If there's anything else you want to know, you can ask when I make an intro plurk!

[golden_king]

I've no idea about this game still but seeing someone play a Date from this makes me slightly curious what Mizuki's about to be like!

[scratchitti]

Hey folks, this is Jess- most of ya'll probably know m from either SCP/The Foundation or Airlocked, but I'm a murdergame oldbie at this point. Today I'm bringing Neku Sakuraba from The World Ends with You. Neku is a moody misanthrophic teenage boy who goes through traumatic character growth in a survival game which of course makes him perfect for a murder game!

If you wanna contact me best bet if raspberrydrink!

[golden_king]

Neku!! I love TWEWY so I'm always happy to see him...I'm glad you brought him back for a full mg run...

[golden_king]

Here's Luminitrium bringing in Gilgamesh from the Fate/ series once again! ...Though there's an obvious, noticeable difference even though once more it's clear I'm back on my bullshit, because of course I am. He'll be over at Room 11 nevertheless and it'll be interesting playing him in another murdergame~

I'm also over at plurk @ leyfi.

[rhododendronhoney]

I cannot stop staring at that gif, it's so damn adorable.

[undershadow]

Hey, guys! My name is Leah, and some of you may know me from elsewhere, but who cares about my credentials! Here's a duck.



This is Lena, from the 2017 reboot of the show with the catchiest theme ever, Ducktales. She's a rebellious tween with a mysterious past, a heart of gold, and the "can I speak to the manager" haircut. Most things about her are spoilers for season one of the series, and for a duck who wears shoes her life can actually get pretty goddamn dark, so feel free to opt out of the latter on her first impressions post! She'll be in the unfortunately apt Room 13.

As for me, feel free to add me at teenwitch or torture#2813 on discord. I'm super excited for formative trauma!

[rhododendronhoney]

Cori: ...are you a Pokemon?

[strictura]

Hello! This is Eric with Nagisa Shingetsu from Danganronpa Another Episode. He's kind of a wet blanket who doesn't like playing childish games but will defend with his life other children's right to play them!!

DRAE is, uh... hoo boy. Kind of on its own level within the DR series. I've got a permissions/opt-out post over here for a list of relevant content warnings that could come up with him where you can let me know if you want me to avoid any of them with your character.

That aside, first impressions are over here, and please pay special attention to the note about his hair horns changing shape with his mood because it's adorable but I had to crop them out of most of my icons. Can't wait for the Zeroes to ask why his ears look so fucking stupid!

You can reach me at kokichi or rideaux#7246 on Discord!

[soverainty]

> his hair horns changing shape with his mood

I have Questions & Concerns, eric

[rhododendronhoney]

Hello y'all! I'm Gray, graygriffin on plurk, and if you know me, you probably can guess what kind of OC I'm bringing. If you don't know me, I'm once again bringing in a Pokemon OC of mine from a previous tabletop game, Coriander Bliss! She's actually from the real world, but ended up involved in a reverse isekai situation with the real and Pokemon worlds crossing over with each other. That's over and done with, but it's still a pretty big influence on her. She's really big on baking, so expect her to be making a lot of food for everyone! Also be prepared for her to adopt each and every one of you.

[battlestations]

on the one hand: baked goods

on the other hand: interacting with a teenager

[immaculacies]

Hello! My name's Nix, and I'm here with Manaka Sajyou from Fate/Prototype. She is, of course, an angel from heaven who has never done anything wrong in her life. What's she doing mixed up in all this murder again? Anyway, her title is the Lovestruck Girl for reasons I'm sure will become very apparent very quickly, and she's in Room 21.

If you want to get in contact with me, you're free to add me on Plurk @ salroka

[byzer0]

dropping a comment here to say i added you on plurk! o7

i havent watched fate/prototype but im sure she can only bring good things

[octopups]

HELLO MY NAME IS spineling AND I WILL BE PLAYING EIGHT SMALL ALIEN DOGS.


[Pictured above: literally the only half-decent graphical depiction of any member of his species on the entire internet]
Okay so his name is Amdiranifani and he is from the book A Fire Upon The Deep and he will be living in Room 19 with his own very special litter box but like, I need you all to understand, he is eight (8) dogs. He is a single consciousness in 8 brains and those brains are housed within several cute little spagetti-necked whippet-looking puppy creatures from another planet and I have no idea what possessed me to app this tray of cinnamon rolls but HERE WE ARE I GUESS.

Oh also he's a math genius from a medieval planet raised by a guy who is secretly Alien Dog Stalin. Also also his title is Good With Numbers because nobody stopped me.

[scratchitti]

But... does he like pets.

[littlebratziska]

with a bonus meme because this is her older but it's too perfect

Hey everybody, this is Natalie, here with the smolest almost prosecutor of all, Franziska von Karma from the flashback episode in Ace Attorney Investigations, coming in to whip everyone into shape! Or just whip everyone, really, she's not particular. You can reach me over at emeralddarkness or on discord at emeralddarkness #3194, and I am looking forward to some CHILD MURDER AND TRAUMA!!!

[rhododendronhoney]

Give! This girl! A whip!

[soverainty]

HELLO FREMBS this is your friendly neighborhood Fyre rolling in with one (1) tiny redheaded twintails, Yuniko Kouzuki from the series Accel World which is pretty much about middle school (and the occasional elementary school) kids playing a high-stakes VR game to freeze time. That's the short and sweet version. :pp

Niko here is tiny but shiny and now in Room 24 near you!! She comes from the year 2046 so I guess she gets to explain any kind of tech to all the people from the middle ages or fantasyland... The futuristic digital age kid life. ☆

Please feel free to add me at wyldfyre and FFFyre[#]4083 on Discord for fun stabbity times ~

[rhododendronhoney]

Cori is from 2014-2015 but still hopeless with tech, please teach her.

[prescience]

Hello murder kids! I'm Shay and I am looking forward to my first murdergame in 2 1/2 years.

This is Oriko. Sorry about the art. Oriko is a magical girl of the Madoka Magica variety, which, to borrow a meme, is suffering. She comes from a much less popular (sorry about the art) manga-only spinoff of the original anime series. Her magical powers involved seeing the absolutely terrible horrible no good future. Of course she set out to stop it and save the world at any cost.

Since powers are nerfed in the castle and precognition was all that gave Oriko a sense of purpose in life, there probably won't a problem at all. She's in Room 25 and everything is fine.

There is a general TW: suicide for Oriko's backstory, which I will not spring on anyone without permission and also in-comment warnings but it exists and I need to be upfront about it.

I'm on plurk at antiquating; though I use it pretty rarely now I'm fine if anyone would like to add me. You can find me more easily at everlutionary#5489 on Discord. HMU with any questions you have or just to chat.

[soverainty]

Shay!!! It's been ages since we murdered together and I'm stoked!! I never really got around to reading all of Oriko's manga, I think I remember dipping my toes in and being very confused, but I look forward to playing with her anyway! /o//

[caligulass]

HEY GANG, this is Ran here! A lot of you know me from around the murdergame circuit, but if you don't, you can add me at RandomProphet! Anyway, I'm bringing Veronica from Fire Emblem Heroes, the Fire Emblem gatcha that... kind of started having a pretty alright story actually? Wild. Anyway, she's a horrible gremlin who's used to conquering the worlds of various Fire Emblem franchises to use their characters to try and steamroll the neighboring nation at least partially because the hereditary evil dragon brainworms tell her to. She's not... all terrible, though... she could be worse, I guess...

[soverainty]

That chibi tbh LOL is that in the same style as the FGO April Fool's chibis..... cute. I didn't play much FEH but I enjoyed Veronica when I saw her!! Can't wait for Niko to just be like......... what year are you from even.

[imozon]

mental note: make some dark dream shitposts

Hello all! I'm Andrusi, whom you may remember from "Ricky's probably in the diner and doesn't know what's happening" and "I'm at a party with a bad internet connection but surely I won't really be needed for the tri--they scapegoated me" and other, less hilarious murdergame incidents. Those of you who don't already have me on Plurk from one of these can add me, I'm Andrusi.

For this game I've brought Dark Dream from Eiga Yes! Precure 5: Kagami Something something... uh, from the Yes! Precure 5 movie. She is an evil-ish clone of a very nice magical girl and the fandom nigh-universally ships her with her original. She will be known as the Evil Knockoff and she's living in Room 2. I feel like I had more to say but I didn't really get enough sleep last night.

[strictura]

how do i not already have you on plurk actually

[battlestations]

I'm here to paint the best possible first impression of my character obviously. Hi guys, I'm Des, whom you might know from my time modding Parasomnia and co-modding 15 Strangers, as well as playing in such games like Antumbra (Suzaku Kururugi) and Lockdown (Yoosung Kim.)

Today I'm bringing you Nigel "Numbuh One" Uno of the early 2000's cartoon network show, Codename: Kids Next Door. It's about a global organization of kids that live in comically giant treehouses and fend off supervillain adults with improbable weaponry. Nigel here is the leader of Sector V and he's very good at what he does, which is acting like he's an expy from The Matrix or something. He tends to jump to wild conclusions, but in his defense, KND villains are all about as over-the-top as he is, so where he's from he's right most of the time. Of course this means he will be paranoid around teenage characters since he believes they're in league with adults, so sorry in advance if he is a little shit!! Whenever he's not freaking out he is a kind and caring, if still rather serious and dramatic kid. And who knows, maybe he will set up some temporary recruiting to the KND in his new base of operations, Room 10!

So, please feel free to plot with me for this and any other matters at my plurk deathdesu or discord Des#0723~ If I ever make a first impressions post the plurk's where it's gonna be posted

Ginshi | Youji Sagan | Loveless

[bizer0]

Hello! Ginshi here bringing you Youji, the other half of Zero from Loveless! He's a lot to handle, made worse by being a package deal with Natsuo and being from this series in specific. I'll be putting up an important opt out post soon, because Loveless.

Feel free to reach me on plurk over at ginshi!

[byzer0]

excuse the package deal just makes it better

[seventhlittlemonster]

I'm super-duper late sksksk sorryyyy

My name's Memento Mori (myselfamhell), and I'm playing Seven from Seven Little Monsters. Big, soft boy in harsh murder-filled environment? Recipe for horrible, horrible stuff. He's super huge too, he could definitely carry four or five of you guys on his back. Maybe more. Which is good because he loves giving piggyback rides!

This is the first murdergame I've been in, I'm like trying to stop myself from vibrating. Blame my sister for getting me into murdergames.

[rhododendronhoney]

Cori is so prepared to protect this big soft boy

[rowboats]

Hi guys! Anna here. I've mostly been in SCP as far as murdergames go the past couple years, but I've also been in Airlocked and Ukimiya, before that o7

Anyway remember that one RPGmaker horror game about a perfectly normal trip to an art gallery that everyone was talking about 8 years ago? I'll be playing Ib, plucky silent protagonist from....Ib, the game. It's freeware, it's a good game, pls play it. Ib is a quiet lady who enjoys rabbits, puzzles, and not being chased by living mannequins, thank you.

I'm over on plurk at hakurei and discord as hakurei#0407! Feel free to poke me.
