the mastermind meme

[monomods]

 

You asked for it, we're finally giving it to you! Say hello to the mastermind meme!

What does this mean exactly? It means your character is the one responsible for everything! They've been controlling Monobear from the shadows (or maybe they have an assistant to help them, possibly even one of your classmates!), they've been putting forth the motives, running the trials, all of it! And now they've finally chosen to reveal themselves and their true motives.

What are their motives? Why do they want to spread despair? Are they somehow connected to the late Junko Enoshima? And most importantly what is their snazzy Monobear-themed look like? You decide!

Threading reactions is highly encouraged and feel free to AU things up to mix up our current survivor pool as much as you'd like.

"Of course I do. But that wouldn't be very fair to the others, now would it? Besides, it's amusing to watch you try to unite everyone. Though I suppose it is equally amusing to watch you throw them all aside in order to save yourself..."

Hmm. Decisions, decisions...

[holocast]

Well, this is probably incredibly low, but -

"...Mon cher, how much do you want to risk being left with your two choices at the end being Roxy and Jimmy?"

[sadisticwarfare]

"Well in that case I'd have them both executed for being insufferable pains." He waves a hand airily. Clearly this has already occurred to him. "But they won't be the last two standing. I'm certain of that."

"Assuming any of us could kill them in the first place - although that brings up another point. What do you plan on doing if none of us kill after we leave here?"

[sadisticwarfare]

"That's easy. You'll be brought down here and tasked with voting for someone to die. Of course you won't be able to vote for yourself to ensure that you all don't attempt a stalemate there."

[holocast]

Hmmm.

"There are still ways to cause a stalemate even if we can't vote for ourselves, you realize."

[sadisticwarfare]

"But of course I realize that. If you all refuse to play along, then I'll just kill you off one by one." It certainly won't be as amusing, but he can deal with that.

[holocast]

"Exactly. Putting us in the same situation we're in now - you'll be choosing who lives and who dies, and only the one you want to win will remain.

"So why waste the time?"

[sadisticwarfare]

"Because it's more amusing this way." Sorry, Lysandre, he's not changing his mind on this.

[holocast]

"It seems more counterproductive than anything."

[sadisticwarfare]

"That isn't really your concern, now is it?"

[holocast]

"We'll see whether it is or isn't later, won't we?"

[sadisticwarfare]

"Indeed we will. Good luck, Lysandre."
