Hi there! I'm working on a Chatroom simulation game, similar to Mystic Messenger (7 routes, 1 female, FEM MC) with a TWIST! We'll be taking the OTOME/DATING-SIM genre and crossing it with the "FOUND PHONE THRILLER/MYSTERY" game genre (The Healing/Duskwood) to make Astro Hollow.
Steampunk vibes, with strong character "troupes"
YANDERE/GOUDERE
*clears throat* Hello! I figured I'd give you a call on my way to grab a bite. I just felt (pause) inclined to call you. I hope you aren't feeling too pressured by this? (Always tries not to sound excited but is compulsive and obsessive so ends up failing near the middle/end bits)
I can feel that you are a good person, but I don't want you to get involved too much. For some reason the thought bothers me terribly (pause) *mumbles to himself* Wonder why that is...
I've considered this more than once (tone changes to somewhat sad) What if Remy did take her own life, because none of us cares enough to notice (pause) well (short pause) whatever it was that she was going through at the time?
TSUNDERE/SADODERE
*Drawn out* I'm BAAAAAAACK BITCHES! I am OUT of that stuffy-ass office and headed (pause) Actually, I'm not sure where I'm headed.
*shouts away from phone* HEY CUTIE! WHERE'S THE PARTY AT? (somewhat evil laughter) OH OH OH! No WAY! I'm 90% sure that was Paxon.
*shouts away from phone* PAXON! MY SWEET LITTLE GRAPE! (giggle) He's onto us! Gotta run! Talk later! (kissy noises)
DEREDERE
(energetic) Hey! I just realized that you might be a little sad after our conversation. I thought I'd call you so you can hear my voice, and know that I'm AYYYY OOOKAY!
I know you might think it's strange that I seem so bright right now, but honestly (slight pause) I know Remy would just hate to see me sad, so I'm doing what I can to stay happy! (talking away from the phone) Thanks! Keep the change! No! It's okay, really! Bye!
(semi-whisper into the phone) Hmmmmm. That's strange. (pause) I thought that guy was just headed the same place I was, but he didn't go inside, and now that I'm outside, (slightly nervous but still upbeat) He's still following me. Hmmmmm. I should call Dante and see if he recognizes him. Maybe he's an officer? (pause and lowers voice a little more) I think I'll be okay, but just in case (pause) I've gotta run. Catch you later!
Reserved. Polite. Accurate Pronunciation, and formal tone. Masculine. VERY articulate. Somewhat quiet, blunt, cold, but honest and straight to the point.
KUUDERE
Ah, you answered in a timely manner. That please me.
I'd like to thank you formally, for your participation in this case, as well as your discretion regarding this matter.
Paxon and I are risking more than I care to acknowledge, however, Remy was a... special woman, and I have a feeling this case is....*clears throat* Never mind the specifics. All will be well.
Emo/Depressed, mid to deep range voice, with semi-slow cadence. Often sounds annoyed. There will be a few instances where he's more engaged, happy, but not often. Masculine. Melancholy.
SHUNDERE
Where are you right now? (flustered) Never mind! It doesn't matter. I need you to come to Windy Kitty.
And NO EXCUSES! You have time, so move it! (pause)
Why aren't you saying anything, RAVI?!
I dialed your number by mistake (mumbled almost to himself in embarrassment)
I don't have time for this (flustered)
(Move away from the mic as if you are covering the phone receiver/yelling away from the receiver) You! Get down from there! HEY! Get that out of your mouth!
GOD COMPLEX. Model/actor, so his voice is mid-range, and he's VERY self-absorbed, so excited when he speaks of himself or his projects, somewhat bored when the topic shifts elsewhere. Narcissistic, BUT underneath it all has a heart of gold and cares about his people.
KAMIDERE/OUJIDERE
OWowOW! Damn, that's hot! Where did I put that hot pad.... No, not there either... shoot.
What is that? Where is that sound coming from? Hello? Holy... sh... oh! I should be careful how I speak in front of the ladies. *chuckle*
Hmmm what should we talk about? Oh! My voice! Isn't it smooth, like butter? It's perfect, isn't it? It's no wonder I've become so famous! I mean, with a voice and face like mine, who wouldn't throw their money at me?!
Shy, but affectionate. A little clumsy with his speech, especially when nervous. Lots of stumbling over words, humms, pauses, ohs, etc. He does like to tease, and uses teasing tones, especially with others in the group, but becomes rather reserved when complimented, flirted with, or around women in general. Mid-range, but would like to see a bit of a higher range when flustered or teasing. Masculine, but not always.
BAKADERE
Hello? You can't just drop more folders on my desk and walk away! Where did you go? Where did these come from?! (fast-paced, annoyed)
WHY ME?
Oh! It's you... I uhm.. I (super nervous) Sorry about that! I meant to chew out Dante! I'm so embarrassed! I swear, I'm not usually this grumpy! It's just all this work, and.... (Groan) Gotta run! Sorry again!
Oh! It's you... I uhm... I (super nervous) WAIT A SECOND! You said... You said... oh no... (Gulp) I need... is it hot in here, or? I uhm.....(lowers voice) sorry but... gotta run! Sorry again!
