Mysterium - The Weird Puzzle Shit Quest (Discussion thread)

[RacingeR]

I decided to preemptively make this thread to contain discussion/speculation/whatever, and as a place where I can also store GM hints and other random crap, so we don't run the risk of cluttering the actual quest thread.

Actual commands will be issued into the IC thread proper.

Skills:

Super Hearing
Since I have memory, my hearing has always been something out of the ordinary. Of course, I am no superhero or mutant or anything of that sort, but I always have been able to pick out sounds that others can’t, and to hear farther than the norm. I find it very useful for my artistic aspirations, but never cared much for this little skill of mine.

Musician - Guitar
I have always been interested in music, and my dream has been since a long time ago to be a musician. My instrument of choice has been the guitar, and I have become pretty skilled at playing it, if I do say so myself. I also have lots of knowledge about music in general, and some knowledge about other instruments.

I wonder how many of the items are going to be completely useless for the whole game.

[RacingeR]

Who knows?

Some might not become relevant until later on.

Give me a fucking bag

Because everyone's gonna need one.

We should make a list of all that we've found inside the room.

-> Wardrobe: This mofo finally opened. It had a box with another lock inside, which thankfully didn't result in another hair-pulling search trip, and net us a crowbar.
-> Bed: Normal bed. Sheets gave away no signs of schoolgirl tentacle abuse, unfortunately. There was a cyan key taped under it, which opened the wardrobe.
-> Nun Painting: Creepy painting. South wall.
-> Red Arrow: One points at the floor (down) some meters next to the wardrobe. The other one points towards an air conditioner on one corner of the south wall. What the fuck are these for?
-> Window: Sealed by metal plate and completely useless except for being a shameless Dangan Ronpa ripoff.
-> Tattoo: 8 Tattoo mysteriously inscribed on Ayaka's delicious thigh. Could it have some deeper meaning beyond fanservice?
-> Wooden Door: Unlocked door that leads to the bathroom. Sadly did not hide a serial killer or rapist determined to give us an early bad end.
-> East Wall Scribbles: Scribbles written over the wall that leads to the bathroom. They range from the unintellegible to the shocking, the most prominent ones being a big "WELCOME!" and a red eye with two Ks under it painted red. There is also a simple multiplication (8x8) written in light blue paint. Did whoever lock us up inside also think we needed to learn the multiplication tables? Ayaka, you're such an idiot.
-> Red Painting: Absolute post-modernist shit that consists of red paint splashed all over a frame. Disgusting.
-> Metal Door: Door that screams "EXIT OVER HERE", sealed with a gigantic iron lock with a chain that's directly connected to the wall. The lock in question has a triangle engraved on it (Not a triforce) and needs a gigantic key. Sounds of machinery can be heard behind it.
-> Air Conditioner: For solving puzzles in those chilly winter nights and searing summer days. Turned off because whoever left Ayaka in didn't want to let her enjoy the freshness of regulated temperatures.
-> Lamp: A lamp on the ceiling. It gives light.
-> Green Carpet: A decorative carpet extending from the metal door, clearly placed by someone with no sense of decorum (Red and green? Seriously, what? Is it fucking christmas yet?). Hid a much more important length of rope.
-> Black Screen: 8'' LCD screen, remote and cable not included. Apparently some chucklefuck forgot to turn it on or power it up, so it's absolutely useless.
-> Table: Wooden table placed against the west wall. Had a small key taped underneath it. Further proof that whoever designed the room had no sense of decorum (Now it's wood and plastic? Fuck off man). Has a few drawers.
-> Plastic Chair: This chair. Screwed to the ground until our favorite (and only) girl released it, its whole purpose is to help Ayaka compensate for not being 6 feet tall American master race. Proof that whoever made the room had jittery behavior.
-> Envelope: Envelope left behind by someone on his way to the DVD rental store. Ayaka took the DVD inside, alongside a person's hopes of avoiding a massive fee.
-> Hollow Compartment: A secret part of the room that hid a metal box with a black screw inside. Proves there is no such thing as being too paranoid.

-->Bathroom: Because it would be awkward if Ayaka had to take a dump on the floor. Has a toilet, a shower, a cabinet and a mirror.
-> Toilet: For all your rating-friendly hygienic needs. Don't play with the flush button or you'll end up paying the price.
-> Shower: Just in case we needed a steamy fanservice scene or the perfect murder site. A small violet marble was on its drain. Who would play with something that slippery on the shower? Jeez.
-> Cabinet: A cabinet placed under the bathroom sink. Had a videotape and a switchblade, proving that the owner of the room was running on a tight budget or is really forgetful about handing back stuff he rented.

[RacingeR]

You now know. Ayaka shall flip the fuck out at some moment later in the story, and it shall be grorious.

[RacingeR]

RIP Ayaka's pride ;_;7

Well shit you should've said there were double digits. YOUR SYMBOLS DON'T EXPLAIN SHIT

[Nihilm]

I find this very interesting, just read all the IC quest posts and will be following this for now.

Thank you~


First room has been completed! The mystery deepens!

I'll add to the character database tomorrow.

[Bloble]

Guys I think Race wants us to stop with the romance bullshit when we hardly know these people. I mean there's a time and place for ridiculous shipping and this isn't it.

[Katie]

You do the shipping after hilarious bullshit.

[RacingeR]

Nah.

Some of these commands are being given by a friend of mine via a chat (sort of an special exception).

Let's say he just managed to... stumble into something pretty interesting right off the bat.

[Erlkonig]

Gonna try making a list of all known characters and data we can infer from them.

Ayaka Takamura (Number 8; Cyan): The main character. Plays the guitar like a moeblob from a stupid slice of life show, has anime bullshit super hearing. The shy, petite kind of girl that acts as the target for almost everything in japanese horror movies. Her sister and her best friend are probably in on this too. Hardcore lesbian bait.
Sakura Eri (Number 7; Violet): Hardcore lesbian. The kind of girl that should only be in a 18+ game (or a western horror movie). Studies at Ayaka's sister school, Entsuki Academy, and is quite possibly some kind of 'genius' or model student. Apparently stole all social skills from her twin brother at birth. Not much else is known about her.
Sakura Tatsu (Number 9; Purple): The glasses guy. Savvy, snarky, and snappy, the obligatory asshole that gets the fangirls all wet and bothered. Would be the protag or at least his rival if this wasn't a Race RP and thus lesbian. Studies at the same school as his twin sister, Eri. Doesn't seem to get along with his sister, or anyone for that matter. Knows morse code and how to operate electronic devices. Nerd?
Lily (???): Ayaka's super best friend with a super lesbian name. The exchange student or obligatory half-japanese baka gaijin. Party-goer, possibly genki. Was on the party as well so she might be in the quest as well.
Ayaka's Sister (???): One year her elder and goes to the same school. Supposedly went to the same party as Ayaka. A complete mystery except for the fact that it really doesn't make sense for her to be in a family that big.
Ayaka's Parents: Honorary mention. Moving up the birth rates for the Emperor of Japan. God bless them.

Also I totally bet Ayaka was hallucinating the cyan lines. THE NUMBERS REZNOV, WHAT DO THEY MEAN?

[RacingeR]

(BTW, Eri is bisexual, not lesbian)

Actually I might make a list of the character's sexualities once they are all introduced.

[Erlkonig]

Whatever, it works great on the list.
