MURDERGAME PROMPTS

a.

[So. Needless to say, this is probably the weirdest place that Carmelita has woken up in a while; no windows, no sort of escape, no god hanging out in a cavity on her chest, but hey! That's probably the nicest bed she's woken up in like, all of her 27 years of living. The positives are definitely outweighing the negatives as she sees it. Even as she walks around the building and looks around at the other people who have been pretty clearly kidnapped, Carmelita honestly looks utterly at ease, hands on the back of her head as she walks around and stretches. To her, there's no need to worry, it seems.

Of course, Carmelita is absolutely going to nose around the place; the rules get a bit of laughter from her, and even the uttering of "oh, that's cute" before her eyes dart over to the profiles, reading them over and seeming entirely unperturbed. Sure, the information on her own profile is spot on, but she wouldn't really expect much less.

Name: Carmelita Ragusa
Age: 27
Height: 5'6'' | 167 cm
Weight: 130 lbs | 59 kgs
Occupation: Vagabond | Part-time guild worker
Likes: Personal freedom, traveling, talkative people, new experiences, music, fighting, stupid nicknames.
Dislikes: Islands in the sky, being trapped, being reminded of home, authority, worries, inadequacy, silence.
Trivia: Carmelita has been traveling the world since the age of fifteen.]


...Wooow, they sure know a hell of a lot, don't they?

[Not that it sounds like it's causing any problems for her. Carmelita will look over to anyone nearby, grinning easily as she looks towards the person in question.]

Hey, you! What do you make of all this shit?

[...She may look well dressed but holy shit, she's got all of the tact and grace of a barn animal. But she is looking expectantly for some kind of answer.]

b1.

[It isn't very long until someone dies in this game; a week at most, and Carmelita just seems about the same as usual by the time the trial and subsequent execution roll around. If nothing else, Carmelita presents any evidence she's found with her usual blunt vigor, and she at least does her part to help; she'd rather not die, after all. Though if there was any squabbling going on, you better believe that Carmelita was egging them on and looking absolutely entertained in the process.

It's after everything, after some sort of assumed invitation gets...promptly crumbled up and tossed elsewhere that Carmelita's out and about; there's no smile on her face as she wanders about, humming a small tune to herself, avoiding the afterparty at all cost and just wanting to go anywhere but the most morose place in the facility. If she happens upon you, though, she'll at least hold a hand out in greeting.]


Oh, hey! I take it you couldn't stand the misery party either, yeah?

[...No one said she wasn't gonna be blunt about it.]

b2.

[Of course, she will eventually just go to the party; it's pretty much solely for the free food provided, but Carmelita looks around the room at anyone still here just...very neutrally, almost borderline kind of unsure about anything going on here. Once she's got her plate piled, though, she...walks over to what's assumedly a vigil; two candles lit in the name of the people they lost today. It's...confusing, really, it's really damn confusing, and honestly as Carmelita's brow furrows a bit.]

...What the actual fuck is this supposed to do...? Or even accomplish?

[It's quieter than her usual brash and brazen tone, but she...honestly looks kind of confused and almost frustrated by it, really.]

c.

[A new area has opened up, and needless to say, Carmelita has an unholy fuckton of energy about her as she explores the new area that opened up. The dojo and gym are extremely nice, and so's the arts and craft room, even if it isn't for Carmelita; it's something else, though, that sees Carmelita buzzing around today like a bee on a fucking mission as she goes to track somebody else down--]

Oh, hey, you!

[Uh-oh. Carmelita is going to be going towards you, no matter where you are or what you're doing with a grin that's pleased as all hell--]

Just the person I wanted to see! Look, I'll cut to the chase; I found some really cool shit in one of the new rooms, and I want a second pair of eyes on this shit. Mind coming with?

[At least she's not making to grab the other person's arm. Yet. But her eyes are practically sparkling and clearly it's time for a misadventure. Are you in???]

JAMJAR/NETWORK PROMPTS

a.

[There's a text post on the network today coming from Carmelita; she uses it semi often for just chatting with others and/or shitposting around the network, but this one actually seems a little serious. Or well, at least enough to not be a rampant shitpost.]

so hey. we all come from different sorts of places, yeah? and we likely know our own worlds like the back of our damn hands. i mean, i do at least, i don't know about any of the rest of you, but it's made me curious.

tell me about the coolest place you've seen from where you come from. to you. don't give a shit about how weird or silly it might sound, i totally want to hear about it either way.


[That's. Actually perhaps surprisingly innocently asked. Huh.]

b.

[Carmelita's usually out and about around jamjar city; she's never one for sitting still or keeping to one place for long, but there is one constant place she goes to often that one can find her; a small hole in the wall bar in an alleyway somewhere, a nice little private place where some of the town's people can unwind after long days of work and dealing with humdrum life. Carmelita's a regular here; she doesn't drink very much, but she can usually be found with a plate of food and watching the people here talk about their days and shit.

She usually just sits by herself, though, but it looks like she's brought a few books from the town's library with her today to occupy her time a bit. Feel free to bother her, if you want; she's seated over by one of the tables toward the middle of the place, and she's never one to mind company.]


WILDCARD

[Wanna do something that isn't one of the prompts? No problem! Feel free to bring your own ideas to me on plurk, and we'll see what we can do! My only request is no NSFW on this post; I'm not even sure I'd like to do NSFW with Carmelita quite yet until I've got her solidified. But, I can offer some alternate things (since I didn't wanna do too many prompts and also I'm running out of steam, whoops);

1. Assumed CR is fine! Carmelita is, if nothing else, good as a casual sort of friend who occasionally likes to spar if desired, though she is a bit...odd and sucks at basic empathy. Seriously, empathy is going to get a very "...what the fuck do you want me to do about it" reaction, if it...wasn't obvious...but let's discuss it if you wanna go for assumed CR!
1a. Also small sidebar: Carmelita calls literally nobody by their given name. She also insists on being called Lita, for short. Carmelita is absolutely gonna come up with some dumb nickname for your character and I apologize in advance.

2. Backstory things! So I haven't settled out Carmelita's entire backstory, though she's. Definitely got some fuckery going on; the basic facts I've settled on is that she was born between the union of an outsider and a resident of the private sky island society that she was born into, and thus, was shunned super hard throughout all her life and didn't...really get to go outside until she was 15. Which was the result of meeting a sealed up god as a 10 year old and said god and she deciding to blow this joint, which resulted in the island crashing down and Carmelita only surviving due to the god protecting her. Everyone else died. Not that Carmelita cared. That's kind of a thing. But yeah, if you wanna do anything with this for whatever reason, let me know.
2a. ...though I will say that anything morality related is uh. Gonna be an uphill battle because Carmelita literally doesn't care. She's not one to think too deeply about this. Do this at your own risk, basically, because the thread might not go too far if she has no reason to listen to said character.

3. For Jamjar prompts in particular! Carmelita is probably someone who doesn't have a home of her own, or insists on not living in one because she's used to the vagabond life. Thus, she's absolutely here to take on odd jobs, including unsavory ones (ie. murder, intimidation, etc), for temporary shelter or food. I couldn't really think of a good prompt to incorporate this, but if you wanna do something with this, lemme know!

4. Also for Jamjar prompts! So optionally, powers can be on for these prompts, and I can incorporate the god hanging out in her chest cavity into threads if wanted. Fomalhaut is someone who stays silent unless addressed usually, or if a battle starts because he works alongside her. He's honestly just a mass of galaxy goop, though he occasionally takes the form of a spear or gauntlets depending on how Carmelita wants to fight. But yeah! I haven't headcanoned him out a lot but I figure if anyone wants to do something with that, I'll offer, just lemme know!]
