//der tod info dump//

Start from the beginning
                                    

(the pic is kinda shitty but you get what i mean) 


in the artwork ill be drawing these masks a bit differently 

kinda like a modified version 

but yes these are the ones theyre based off of 

though i wont be showing gamemasters official design in the game 

id rather people make their own interpretations 

its a lot more fun as a mystery 


but our der tod includes the 5 contestants i showed you in one of the previous chapter 

aether 

andras

chienne

cloak guy 

pentelle 

and for four battles 

there are four chapters(not including the intro//prologue)

STEPHANOTIS. good luck

CASABLANCA. celebration

MARIGOLD. desire to succeed 

LAVENDER. distrust 

the meanings of the flowers have a lot to do with the theme of the chapter 

the setting for this der tod is a suburban house 

in the middle of nowhere 

there isnt much gameplay, which is why i consider the genre to be "visual novel"

there are a few big choices you can make 

by that i mean 

you choose who lives in each battle 

im also thinking about having a "regret" option 

the possibility of a character coming back ??? im not sure how 

maybe not 


right now we're still working on the script 

so dont expect the game to be done anytime soon 

let me know if theres anything else you wanna know 

or if youve got any ideas id be glad to listen 


fighting styles i guess???

aether- close combat boxing, sometimes throws daggers(she only has two) 

andras- takes advantage of the setting(ex; chandelier, power from the building) , weak, usually dodges more than attacks 

chienne- weak, relies on weapons, sometimes resorts to old fashioned brawling 

cloak guy- relies on brute strength, lunges a lot, janky movements,  doesnt think before attacking

pentelle- uses weapons, weak, really good at dodging, graceful movements

--------

aether enjoys taking out her anger violently. the more you let her win, the more she wants to fight- she starts being able to reason less and less and just blindly attacks

andras is prone to hallucinations and paranoia. the more you let him win, the worse it becomes- he also becomes more apathetic?? like,, he doesnt care much anymore and doesnt hold any compassion or remorse for his actions 

chienne is by default a very manipulative person. the more you let him win, the more aware he becomes of others' weaknesses- he starts to feel a bit less and tries to intimidate everyone else with personality. and when you put up a facade like that so often its easy to break it. hes not very stable 

cloak guy is one of the few that regret his actions. he's a bit of a hypocrite, despising der tod but still participating nonetheless. the more you let him win, the more distant and sorrowful he becomes- once he's alone, whats left? 

pentelle normally doesnt strike anyone as the killing type. she tries to live up to what other people think she is, but it just isnt working. the more you let her win, the more she embraces her rocky past- shes quite fond of guns, isnt she ?
