CRAU MURDERGAME MEME

THE CRAU MURDERGAME (And Mafia) MEME

You wake up somewhere new. And unlike your first go-around, you know what's happening this time.

This might be your second - third, fourth time in a murdergame. Maybe you had even hosted one, or ran it yourself. You recognize some of your fellow captives, and even the ones you don't seem to have emerged from similar situations.

Either way, you know the drill by now: you're trapped aboard an allegedly haunted school that's floating about in space, and your legion of hosts (an odd collection of characters, which may include but is not limited to: a robot bear, a male voice that only speaks via the intercom, a horrible abomination fast food mascot, a terrifying lich(?), Neil Patrick Harris and an eerily familiar celebrity who's incredibly famous out in space) then suddenly get told that there's only one way to escape, and that's by one thing alone: murder.

Been there, done that.

Each time a murder happens, there's going to be an investigation, and then a trial. Naturally, more often than not, you have to find the culprit or else. Hope that it all comes back to you.

(This meme is intended for CRAU characters and NPCs from previous murdergames (Dangan Roleplay, Foolish Mortals, Trustfell, Parasomnia, Curtains, etc), mafia/murder PSLs/other games (Nope's Peak, Newlydead Game, EpicMafia, etc) and characters from canons that center around "killing games" (Dangan Ronpa, CLUE, Willy Wonka, Hunger Games, etc).

MURDERGAME TYPE:

1. Investigative. This type of murdergame relies on having specific culprits per trial, each one handpicked as a culprit or victim.
2. Mafia. Specific characters are chosen to be either a group of killers or a single killer from the very beginning. Other roles may also be given to other characters, such as Doctor, Gunsmith, etc.
3. Hunger Games. No trials. No investigations. No downtime. Just an all-out bloodbath. May the odds be ever in your favor.

PROMPTS:

1. Welcome to Hell, Enjoy Your Stay! You've only just woken up, but immediately, you panic. Thankfully, you're not alone, and some of these people are unfamiliar to you - but all of you are terrified.
2. So How About that Murder? You've just been told by your Legion of Hosts that "hey, you've got to kill to survive" and immediately, we're back on your bullshit.
3. MOOOOOOTIVE! It's been quite some time and your mastermind is pretty much sick and tired of all of this fluffy and sweetness to the point that they've put their hands down and decided that they've got to do something about it. But what's it going to be this week?
4. So Do You Want To Be A Mole? Probably not, but it seems that whoever is overseeing your game thinks that you'd be great to be the game's spy.
5. Roles, Roles, Roles! Specific to the Mafia set up, sometimes you're given a specific role. Maybe you can pass out weapons or guns to people. Or perhaps you can speak to the dead. Maybe you can block someone from killing for the evening. Whatever it is, you're special. Just make sure not to get killed. (For ideas on roles, feel free to utilize this list here!)
6. So you're Mafia now, eh? You are one of the elite. The ones chosen to vote for who dies each week. Whether it's by choice or by chance, you've got a dirty job to do and you have to do it... or else. But hey, at least you're not alone! You've got some buddies to help you do the work with you.
7. What's that? Somehow, somewhere, you've managed to find some sort of machine that takes a special kind of coin and pops out some sort of item? Who knows.
8. Free Time Events Throughout the week, you're free to do as you please, so what are you going to do, even with the threat of murder hanging over your heads? Might as well get to know your fellow captives, right?
9. Kill or Be Killed Whether you're mafia or just a solo killer, it's time to start your murder on! There's plenty of ways to do it. So how's it gonna be done this time?
10. IT'S INVESTIGATION TIME! Ding dong bing bong, a body has been discovered! Whether or not you'll actually find any clues, however, to who did it might be a bit of a toughie.
11. Let's figure this out The trial starts and everyone's eyes are on everyone else. Whether you're given a list of suspects or not, there's a killer to catch! But will you catch the right one? Or scapegoat someone else entirely innocent?
12. I remember...! In some murder games, memories are key. Every Sunday, you remember something from your past that you've somehow forgotten. But why was it lost in the first place? And why are you remembering it now, all of a sudden? It is a mystery, truly.
13. And the mastermind is-? Is it truly someone outside of the group? Or perhaps it was one of your friends after all? It's time to finally finish this, solve all the mysteries, defeat the evil twisted things, maybe get the Golden End and go home.
14. WILDCARD Anything else that I'm missing? JUST JAM AND PLAY IT OUT!

[probably because that's kind of what happened. sort of. it's a long story, yusuke.

the more important question is "why is yusuke even here," he's too pure and aesthetic for this situation. akira's already been pretty damn tainted by MURDERGAME LIFE, so he's willing to go through it again to protect his friends...

but if they're here? that kind of complicates things. but akira... almost as ever, keeps his cool. there's no reason to make yusuke fuss about the things that are worrying him, so he just smirks coolly and offers:]

Should I strike a pose?

[this is how we deal with our problems, it's fine.]

[wantsnudes]

[Little does he know that Yusuke has already lived the MURDERGAME LIFE himself, although yeah, still relatively untainted considering they broke the game and escaped before too much murder could happen. He's hoping the same can happen here again, because what are Phantom Thieves good for if not rebelling and escaping from sticky situations? Particularly with their leader here, he feels more reassured.

To the question, however, Yusuke looks surprised at being addressed, completely lost in his own thoughts as he was.]

Ah, there's no need, unless you wish to. I lack any of my supplies necessary with which to capture it.

[Maybe there's an art classroom he can raid later...]

[jokered]

[akira will definitely help him raid the grounds for art supplies later, once they get the situation all squared away.

and maybe after akira finds whoever is running this game to rip them a new one, since the last time he showed up to a murdergame with another phantom thief, it didn't end well.

at all.]

You looked like you were looking for a pose.

[it comes with a shrug. play it cool, kurusu. no need to let on to how... bothered you are. by yusuke being here specifically. it's fine, this is fine.

(narrator voice: it was not fine.)]

[wantsnudes]

I was actually thinking that you look different. What happened to your face?

[Moving all up into his personal space to get a better look??? It doesn't even look fresh, which is weird, because Yusuke definitely saw Akira just days ago and he looked fine, no fresh or healing injuries there.]
