Project Inferno

 "But don't worry. We'll fix you. Only the best will make it out of the asylum, but those who do will be filled to the brim with pure, beautiful, 

hope ." "- Project Inferno opening."Project Inferno, usually simplified as PI, originated as a roleplaying game on Quotev created by users Calico (@roulette) and Evergreen (@destroy). It is a fanon continuation of the Danganronpa "Tragedy" plotline, using religious and asylum horror elements during the killing game.

It is made completely of original characters made by admins to the project, portraying them on personal accounts representing the character themselves. None of the canon characters from Danganronpa were portrayed directly, but there are mentions of characters (e.g., Junko Enoshima and Class 77-B) due to it being in the game's re-thought canon.

Plot
A group of teens wake up in an unknown location with an ankle monitor and dozen other people they do not know. Among sixteen, there are four people given special roles outside of roleplay.

Kurosu Sumiyoshi, the Ultimate Blackmailer, as protagonist. He has synthesia - he recognizes those by their "color auras" at first, noting their good and bad connotations (ex., Dominique Fortier's color reminds him of a navy blue, similar to his own father).

Kayomi Kenma, the Ultimate Thanatologist, as antagonist. They believe themselves to be cursed as an "angel of death", yet was ironically very intoxicated at their kidnapping and, thus, at beginning of the game.

The acutely named Pikachu, the Ultimate Pokémon Enthusiast, as deuteragonist. He wears a big Pikachu themed onesie and calls his dedication to the card game "a lifestyle".

And finally Eden Pierre, the Ultimate Candlemaker, as antagonist henchman. They offer to bake and make candles for everyone they meet, and in addition, they have a crippling fear of blood, human gore, and "disgusting", germy things.

Kurosu, along with everyone else, file out of the room they awoke in to a hallway with a window. Outside that window is Ichi, a small person tending to flowers until Kurosu jumps out the window to get her attention. Ichi crawls into the building (Kurosu following suit) and explains their situation —

A killing game.

The opening plot point asserts the fact that all participants of the killing game have committed a crime. This was more than likely due to The Tragedy, as most people were fighting for their lives at this time, but this expresses disappointment since the participants were upcoming Ultimates. ❝But you're all soon-to-be-ultimates, aren't you? The beacons of HOPE to bring this world out of the depths of despair? You were supposed to be in the class underneath Makoto Naegi's. How unfortunate that you were supposed to start high school next Spring and the apocalypse happened. Well, at least it got you out of finals.

So crimes might be fine for the common riff raff,

the fucking scum of the earth, these filthy despairs,

'' but you? ''

You were supposed to set a fucking example for everyone else.

And now

you're going ''' to pay. ''' ❞ With this information, the group rightfully freaks out or asks the reason why. Ichi states it is in the pursuit of hope.

A mastermind had placed her in charge of overseeing this killing game, along with conducting humiliating group therapies and giving out hope medicine. This confuses some and angers others. After a few bonks to her from Kayomi's parasol umbrella, Ichi snaps and directly threatens the mastermind - but never looks to the mastermind nor addresses them directly. She cools down and exits, leaving the rest of the cast to their own devices to explore.

chapter i . / dementophobia.
The therapy of Celine Blanchet.

"Selfcest Motive": Identical clones of the participants are let out in the facility. They are not exact copies, but they can easily mess with other participants to trick them into thinking the clone is the real counterpart, assist in killing their real counterpart, or become attracted to their real counterpart.

Sayo Shirayma is killed; Pikachu confesses to being the culprit and is then supposedly killed with lethal injection, but it was not lethal poison at all; just a ruse for Ichi to get back at the mastermind. Pikachu escapes execution and stays in the game. Tread lightly! Chapter spoilers: open "[expand]" for chapter information.

chapter ii . / atelophobia.
The therapy of Dominique Fortier.

"Panini Motive": A huge grill is descending from the ceilings in the facility. The participants would be crushed to death akin to paninis if they did not commit a murder. Their ankle monitors forbid them from going to the garden for the motive, as they are implied to explode if they stepped foot outside.

Plot wise, a video is recovered, but it only shows half of it due to the computer it was played on exploding. Kayomi and Eden look through the trash and find crushed up pills resembling the hope medicine prescribed to them.

Jurai Tanaka is killed; Poison Killing is exposed as the culprit and is executed by a large bear trap, cutting them in half.  Same as above!: open "[expand]" for chapter information.

chapter iii . / chronophobia.
The avoided therapy of Mercy.

chapter iv . / thanatophobia.
The therapy of Kayomi Kenma.

chapter v . / theophobia.
The therapy of Tama Ragirimonuu.

chapter vi . / athazagoraphobia.
The hope video announcement.
