Danganronpa Motive Ideas
Hey all! This is my first post on this blog... and on Tumblr!Â
I’ve been roleplaying ever since I was a kid (About 6 or 7?), and I’ve obviously changed lots of my interests since I started. From Animal Jam to FNAF, to now Danganronpa... I’ve learned a lot! Currently, I’m into the Danganronpa and sandbox stuff, and I’m currently running a KGRP with some of my best friends on Discord! Sometimes, we have trouble finding motives, so I figured I’d share some of my favorites from the games I’ve been in and posted.
- A random student is given a dangerous, even deadly weapon. This weapon can range from poison to knives, to even a gun. No one besides the mastermind, traitor(s), and the student who’s given the weapon knows who has it. After the kill, if the weapon is left at the crime scene, it’ll be disposed of with alongside the bodies. If the killer still has the weapon after the kill, they will keep it until their execution or until they graduate. If a student with nothing to do with the murder takes the weapon from the crime scene or its original holder, they will keep it until it is taken from them, they die, or will bring it with them when they graduate.
- Every student is assigned a certain target. The target can be anyone! Even whoever they are closest to in the game, or someone they’ve never talked to. If someone kills their assigned target and gets away with it, they can choose one person to graduate alongside them.
- This motive has been thrown around for a while, from what I know. It’s... Russian roulette but with people a character cares about! Though, my version of this motive has a slight twist to it. Every hour, students will gather in the usual spot for announcements. A monitor will display one person each student cares about, tied up and unable to speak or move. A person will randomly be selected, and they will be killed. Lets say that Hatsune Miku was in this game. I’ll say the person she was closest with is Kagamine Rin. If Kagamine Rin is selected to die out of all the other people, the next hour she will be replaced with the person Hatsune Miku is the second closest with, and the cycle will continue until she has no more people left. When that happens, Hatsune Miku will be put into the game of Russian roulette, just not tied up.
