An old cassete tape.
The screen pans out to show a man in his middle ages, adorned with a trilby hat and a fitting jacket, a smoking pipe loosely tucked in his mouth, smoke swirling.

"If you're listening to this, chances are, it's too late. The Cycle cannot be stopped... And you, me, your friends... We're stuck. It's a one way road we're on, and it doesn't look like it ends. *Audible sigh* Ugh... Give me a break. It's not much solace to know that in a few short hours, I will no longer exist. As you know, those who give the wrong solution are forced to ascend- To be reborn and start over again- No memories, no family, no links... The only reason you have this recording is because I did not include a hint. The Seeker destroys all evidence involving The Solution. Here, in your hands, is proof that I, Reisz Micoloscke, lived... God help us all, and may you find The Solution...
You are our lifeline.
*Click.*
The man, with a solemn look upon his face, he raises his pistol to his temples, and pulls.

This story contains depressing/dark themes, and may be too confusing for beginner roleplayers.
Now that I have gotten that out of the way, let me jump straight into the thick of it.
If you're familiar with Danganronpa, Bastion, Transistor, or even Shin Megami Tensei, you might feel at home in this Roleplay.
I'm aware this RP has nothing to do with SK, and I will place a copy of this forum in the Gremlin Chatter in the future, due to foreseeable problems.
What's that? I have another forum I haven't gotten around to?
...Oh.
*Dodging bullets*
Yes, yes, I know, Very few of my roleplays ever take off...!
It's partially due to a bad habit of procrastination that we can all agree, we are guilty of, but to varying degrees.
Remember, if you guys stop posting, I will take over and make this into a fanfiction. Err... Well, it's not a fanfiction, as it's original works, and not Spiral Knights... So... Eh. This RP will be different, in that it's not completely text based.
The system I will be using is not the norm, seeing as there are Sanity points and Morality points.

Entry 1: The Basics
-
.Sanity Points: Your starting number is base 40, but your character disposition may lower it to 20 to start off with as your maximum.
Depending on what you discover, you will lose or earn points.
If you don't die (Suicide/Nightmares) when you lose all your sanity points, you will go insane.
If you go negative 30... You become a dread.
.Morality Points: Everyone starts off with 0. Kill someone who's close to The Solution? Minus 5 points. Kill an insane person? Minus 3 points. Kill a dread? Plus 10 points. Prevent murder of those other than Dreads? Plus 4 points. Give the right answer? 40 points.
.Disposition: Is your character easy to be scared? Minus 20 max sanity, Lose sanity upon murder. Tough? Plus 10 max Sanity, harder to kill.
Thief? Steal items. Disposition is your character's uniqueness enveloped into a skill, and it can end you up in many places. Genius? Research.
.Research: 1/60 AP a day. Stacked loss of sanity over time.
.Archives: Scavenge for materials. Chance Item.
.Archives_B: 4% chance of finding The Solution. If not, you Ascend.
.Nightmares: Those who are insane may be murdered by Nightmares.
-
Entry 2: Advanced
.Insanity: You lose control of your character until the next cycle.
.Dread: Your now play by the rules of the hunter. Murder everyone, as it is The Seeker's command!
.Morality Points Cont: What is the point of negative morality? You get to buy more* items from The Seeker. Money? Pilfer it off of corpses, find it in the archives. Positive Morality gives you a bonus of more Sanity per day.
.Disposition Cont: You're probably wondering the limits of Disposition... The answer is: As long as I approve it.
.Ascend: You should never have to press this button. It sends you to the next cycle, and you lose your memories. However, someone might be out for your blood, and Continue does not work unless everyone who is still in the current cycle has pressed the button. Death counts as Ascenscion. You will keep your morality points from last life, but lose your money.
.Continue: Move to the next cycle once everyone alive presses the button.
.Money: Buy things from the Seeker. Gain money through the Archives, Or by talking to the Seeker and claiming a kill.
.Claim: You lose 5 Morality for claiming a kill, and you are marked for three days.

Entry 3: The Seeker's Shop
What's so good about the Seeker? It is it's fault we're here, right?!?
Rest assured, it didn't do it.
What does it sell? Among other things, The Solution. Things to murder your allies with, which you can only get from the Seeker or the Archives.
