DanganRonpa Rogue: New Hope (SYOC)

by KISL

It's been years since the Tragedy and versions of the infamous Killing Game have taken the world by storm. In this special imitation, 16 students battle against a trial of life and death, trust and betrayal, and ultimately—a mastermind that schemes amongst them. (SYOC CLOSED) (Discord now available)

3. AN: The final cast

Let me start by saying that it's been tough choosing a cast. A lot of the submissions were great. Most characters were unique, fleshed out, good ol' Dangan wacky, relatable, and a blend of all. In the end I had to go with those that offered potential for development, could have interesting dynamics with each other, and had something to say about human nature. And for revised plot reasons, I upped the cast number by two slots (which is just as well). So here you go!

FINAL CAST:

1. Ashita Keji — Ultimate Interrogator ("It's natural to be curious!")

2. Akito Yoichi — Ultimate Firefighter ("Helping people is a burden.")

3. Kimi Tenjoku — Ultimate Air Traffic Controller ("This isn't a competition, alright?")

4. Chikao Inamine — Ultimate Mythologist ("This reminds me of Xibalba, have you heard of that place?")

5. Mayu Amari — Ultimate Dollmaker ("I like appreciating beauty before it fades.")

6. Fukuya Onsuki — Ultimate Acrobat ("There's no need to stay miserable!")

7. Sinerra Demona — Ultimate Poet ("Can we really resign ourselves to this fate..?")

8. Saturn Demona — Ultimate Occultist ("We'll get through this, if our faith doesn't blind us.")

9. Takako Kizuki — Ultimate Psychiatrist ("Surprise is a luxury that we no longer have.")

10. Kyou Shinoha — Ultimate Weapon Designer ("Working with machines is very soothing.")

11. Kasumi Miura — Ultimate Casino Host ("I take a lot of big risks but this won't be one of them.")

12. Sora Shirosaki — Ultimate Pilot ("Life is wonderful and thinking otherwise is just stupid.")

13. Haruko Akiyama — Ultimate Mountaineer ("There is no challenge I can't face!")

14. Naohiro Miya — Ultimate Street Vendor ("I understand so there's no need to worry.")

15. Hibiki Tsukuda — Ultimate Con Artist ("Wanna play a game?")

16. Jao Katayashi — Ultimate Puppeteer ("The only string I don't control is the red string of fate!")

Congrats to everyone who made it in! I'm sorry to everyone whose characters didn't, I hope they or any other characters you create find a place in other SYOCs!

As for character introductions, I don't know when I'll have them out since I'll be spending some time making a master document of dynamics, interactions, likes, dislikes, all that character-plot stuff. But in the meanwhile, do let me know your impressions of these characters! And how they might interact with each other, and maybe fare in the Killing Game. Thank you! :)
