Hello, it’s Mao and I’m thinking about running a game called Deadly Revelation, which is a TTRPG based on the Danganronpa franchise!
The game is all about building the cast and the narrative together with the Host, forging bonds with the other characters, keeping secrets and using your talents, clinging into hope and falling into despair, solving the truth behind a case or deceiving others to try and get away with murder. Aside from the occasional dice rolls and a few mechanical stats, the game’s structure is similar to how a Main Game plays out on DRG, but leans a bit heavier on the source material and focuses more on the narrative and character relationships.
The game is divided into arcs (chapters/game rounds) that consist of at least one Freetime, one Event, one Investigation and one Trial with separate rules for each phase. The first phase, Freetime, is an amalgamation of Daily and Night, where you’re free to roam the map and bond with other characters, seek a way out or make preparations for a murder, much like in the games. The second phase, Event, is where the murder usually happens and is designed by the Blackened and the Host at the start of each arc. The third and fourth phases are, if not obvious, what they look like. A single arc typically lasts for 2-3 sessions, which in turn last for 3-4 hours each, though some arcs may take longer.
You can read more info about the game by checking it out, but this isn’t required: the mechanics are simple and you’ll learn them as we go, and I will summarize all important parts of the handbook for you before inviting you to the server it’ll be hosted on.
I’m looking for a group of 3-4 players, who would be interested in trying out the game and have time for meeting up at least once (if not twice) a week to play. I would very much like to build the game around what the players want and incorporate your characters into the story, so you should be somewhat (very) ready to get invested in that process. You’ll each be creating one PC and 3-4 NPCs, the cast of the killing game, before the start of the game along with discussing themes, tones and plot stuff together with me.
We’ll play over text in a Discord server, though you should have access to VC for music and OOC talk (such as turn adjudication, getting roll results, letting everyone know when you're AFK, etc.) for each session as well.
You can sign up for the game by filling out this form:
