Round 4 AU Workshop
In Round 4, all characters will be veteran Agents. That means they have been Agents for at least 6 months, and up to 2 years. This post can be used for sorting out that AU history.
Arrival at the Foundation
Arrival at the Foundation will generally follow this pattern:
1: Your character won't remember exactly how they were removed from their world. As far as they know, their memories just 'cut off' abruptly at whatever canon point you choose for them. They will have the feeling that there is a gap in there somewhere, but they won't be aware of how long it is or what happened during that time. Their first memory after this gap will always be the same: waking up naked in a cold room with a large, strange machine nearby. Regardless of what they were wearing before, they will now be wearing an orange jumpsuit.
2: Shortly after awakening, they will be taken from the room with the strange machine and brought to what looks like an interrogation room. In there, they will have their intake interview. The interview will vary based on how your character responds to being questioned, but in the end they will either agree to be an agent or end up being subdued and locked away in a cell until they agree to cooperate. Here are some examples of the intake interview: (1), (2), (3).
3: After the intake interview, characters will be taken away for training. This will vary based on what your character already knows, but by the end of it they will be proficient in the following: technology use (on par with 2019, as well as the use of Foundation-specific tech), reading and writing (in English, which all characters are suddenly able to speak), firearm use, containment protocol basics, and testing/training in using their powers. This process could last as little as a couple days (long enough to test out of all the training) to a few months (for people who know none of that and need to learn everything).
4: After their training is done, characters will start being assigned on missions. Characters will generally be assigned to tasks that fit their talents, but you can expect any mission they are sent on as D-class agents to be very dangerous. Casualties will be common.
Rankings
If a character survives being a D-class agent for long enough, they have the potential to become a C-class agent. C-class agents are generally given better assignments (to Safe SCPs with well-known containment protocols), and often are expected to be the 'leader' for groups of D-class agents.
For this round, your character can potentially be a C-class agent if they meet the following qualifications:
1: They have been at the Foundation for longer than 6 months.
2: They have been generally cooperative with the Foundation.
3: They have a particularly useful skill (mundane or otherwise) or a useful power.
If they don't fit those requirements, go with D-class to be on the safe side.
AU personality
Depending on the length of time they have been at the Foundation, a character's personality may be somewhat different from how they are in canon. This is to be expected, given the kind of work the Foundation does. However, characters should still be recognizable as themselves, and all changes in personality need to be explained on your app.
Any AU history or personality changes that are not listed on your app will not be considered canon for this game!
TL;DR -
- Characters will be agents of the Foundation.
- They can be there for anywhere from 'six months' to 'two years'.
- You must write up a summary of their AU history.
- You must also explain how this AU history has affected their personality.
- Time matters! Someone who only did the intake interview will be pretty much the same as they are in canon. Someone who has been with the Foundation for a few months will have Seen Some Shit, and their personality will probably have changed a bit.
As a final note, you must seek permission from other players before you may use their character in your character's AU history! If you want to have your character trained by Atsushi, for example, then you must ask Atsushi's player for permission, and we will seek confirmation from that player. Apps that fail this step will be automatically rejected!
So go ahead and get planning!

Gonta Gokuhara
Canon: Danganronpa V3
Age: 17 (Birthday is 1/23)
Rank: D-Class
Status: AWOL as of May 2019
Gonta officially joined up with the Foundation after R3... Which means he's been here for a year now? Don't let his looks fool you, he's a sweet boy who was literally raised by "kind wolves" and wants to be a gentleman. He's also an expert on bugs and will be happy to educate you on the nice insects, but at least he's learned you can be a good person and not like bugs.
He's been fairly cooperative but wishes the Foundation would stop trying to kill people. This, plus being incredibly strong and able to speak to animals means he's usually assigned to missions that deal with animals. Outside of work, he takes care of a bunch of madagascar hissing cockroaches and a living furby SCP he named Mew. He doesn't mind people playing his game and has looked up stuff past his canonpoint, but he explicitly warns people that his canon is a murdergame and that upsets people.
Unfortunately, he ended up following his former cabinmate Marisa to another world while everyone was fighting Mayuri, so he's kind of missing at the moment. If you want to plot things out with me before hand, you can contact me at
