Awesome. Great story. That's amazing. Can't wait to see what Uncle Crow does. It'll be great I'm sure.
How did Natty, Tai, etc. end up getting with the team/the otherworld?

There was a happy ending right?
Depends. The party would have continued along with the story until reaching the end. In which the worlds would be falling apart and colliding. The organization would have been dealt with a few souls ago. The party would be on the final soul with Zanark. The celestial dragon would tell them that they were already too late, but despite this, the party would try anyway. They take Zanark's challenge, clearing a gauntlet of difficult bosses before facing him and defeating him. They then receive the final and last soul and return the the real world to find the fabric of reality breaking apart. The real world and the other world are colliding with gigantic trees growing inside of skyscrapers, Sunshine Triceras charging through the streets and smashing cars, and island turtles suddenly appearing in the horizon. Essentially, the apocalypse. Standing amid the chaos, the party would realize that their keys work in the real world now. Fighting their way through hordes of powerful enemies they've encountered previously, they make their way up a starlight pathway created by Zanark into the sky, towards a gigantic rift between the two worlds. The party would get up there and find the source of the destruction. A strange, digital glitch amalgamation monster that's reminiscent of every soul keeper they saw to that point. Somnis then suddenly gets a vision of being within the Velvet Room. As she sits there, the mysterious man speaks to her. "Go. This is your destiny. The time has come." The party begins battle with the thirteenth world that had been mentioned previously. It's a separate world from the original twelve with the souls. This world was soulless and brought only destruction. Origin World is the final boss and the party faces off against it. Origin World knows all of the ultimate attacks the bosses had previously and at the end of each cycle uses its own special attack, Origin Beam. After the difficult fight, the party defeats Origin World, only for it to take a new shape. Somnis. Origin explains that it and Somnis are the same being. Somnis and Origin were both created from the desires and emotions of humanity. While Origin feeds off of the negative energy, Somnis feeds off the positive energy and hope of the world. Origin easily defeats the party in battle, knowing every single skill the party knows and being capable of using multiple in one turn. As everything begins to crumble, Somnis' memories return to her. Somnis was never a normal human. She was only made at the beginning of the year. Her memories were never real. She was given a home with a lonely woman that only ever wanted a daughter to love. False memories were planted into both Somnis and her mother as they could recall Somnis' past. However, there were some inconsistencies which had shown up once in a while, pointing toward Somnis never existing. Somnis remembers that she too is a part of Origin. However, despite the fact that they are the same, they are very different. Origin comes from the genocide timeline, but Somnis has seen the love and hope of the world. Because of her full ranks with everyone, she has seen the best in humanity. She returns to the velvet room as the light begins to dim. She can finally see as the truth is revealed. Her father, sitting within the Velvet Room, nods to her, telling her this is her final battle. All of the Rank 10 gifts Somnis gave to her friends sit on the table as her father motions to them, signaling her to take them with her. Dogachu, her guide created by her father, stands by Somnis' side and walks with her through the door out of the Velvet Room, back to the battle. Using the Rank 10 items as conduits of hope, the party is able to equip them as accessories, giving them massive stat boosts so they are capable of facing off against Origin. Together, they take down Origin and stop the collision of the two worlds. Fox uses all the souls to return things to their original state. Because Origin no longer exists, there's no longer a threat of the worlds colliding and the gates to the other world are still accessible. Despite thinking the worlds would become completely cut off, it seems the party will still be able to return in the future. Sadly, they celebrate too soon. Somnis, having fulfilled her mission, begins to glow in a bright light and dissolve away slowly. She explains to the others that as the embodiment of hope, she completed her mission of protecting the worlds from colliding and now no longer has a reason to exist. A bittersweet ending ensues as Somnis says goodbye and the party must move on with their lives. It's not over, however, as a CYOA mini sequel starring Lisa was planned. The entire story would be about her life now and how she tries to find a way to bring back Somnis.

Oh a few things How would the game been affected if we went the genocide route and started killing the Guardians instead of trying to reason with them? Second was Fox the child of one of the guardians? (If i had to guess mom was either Solera or pirate doods wife and his dad would be pirate dad) Third who was the actual killer? Someone in our immediate group? Someone associated with us? Or third party we haven't met yet? If you killed all the guardians then Somnis would have become Origin at the end of the story and destroyed the world. Somnis would have also become darker and more violent throughout the story. Fox's father was a kitsune noble and a close friend of Dracia's family. Well. Fox, Alice, Zack, Somnis, and Mimi. All of them had either attempted murder or kidnapped someone at some point.

Didn't someone, like, doctor police records somehow? Also what's this about Laura being a special case? Yep. The organization had an inside officer working for them. It was Mimi. When Laura was a child, her father was a close friend of Mattea's and worked with him as a scientist. One day, Laura and Tom were playing in the lab, which they were not allowed to do, and Laura stumbled upon one of the prototype Soul Keys. She was just playing around with it, really. But she accidentally activated it and slashed Tom's face with a sword. As a child, this was obviously traumatic for her. He passed out immediately afterwards from shock, but Laura was left all alone with her bleeding friend she just stabbed. Panicking, she screamed for help and her intense emotions set off the nearby portal and the prototype Soul Key in her hand, causing them to interact in a strange way. Laura was tied to the fabric of the other world, capable of opening up small tears in the form of portals. Although she knew nothing of it. Tom forgot everything about the experience, having lost his memory and only having the scar remain. He didn't even remember that Laura gave it to him. He only remembers he got it while playing around as a kid and doing something dumb. He's kinda defensive about the scar though. Hence him hiding it with his sunglasses. Laura's entire story is about how she blames herself for everything and she believes that everyone would have been better off not knowing her. She's a very guilty person. It's also true that the only reason the party was capable of entering the portal like that was because of Laura tho. Also something she feels guilty for. Dragging the party into this other world nonsense.

Tai and Jimmy would find Buttons going into the other world and follow him. Tai would tell Natsumi. Freya would follow Natsumi because it was going to be during a time when they were hanging out. Avalon would have been kidnapped for Twilight Cavern. Lyon would follow the party into the other world. Once the party went into hiding, the organization would use Katie as bait to get them to adventure into another area and try to save her. Sachi somehow managed to stumble into the portal with the party at some point and not even he's sure why or how. He and Natsumi then have a conversation that leaves both of them more confused than before. That should be everyone.

Makes sense. Also, I just remembered I had Tai make Jimmy and Buttons do a weird ritual in a graveyard at midnight. Yeah, that's not gonna happen again...

If we were going the Genocide route would we have become allies with the other organization or at this point we knew too much and had to be killed?
Did Raine know Morgan had a huge crush on her and how did she feel about World War Raine?
Was Orgion the true boss you were talking about?
What was everyone's summon that you had planned?
What Guardian was going to be the most supportive and helpful during our quest?
What Guardian was going to be the hardest boss battle?
Anyone else in the immediate party planning to be kidnapped?

You'd work for the organization.
Raine knew that Morgan and Tab were fighting over her. That's why she got mad at both of you that one time in the other world.
Yeah, Origin's the real final boss.
Laura - Hand of Destruction & Hand of Creation Tom - Skell (Huge Mech) Fox - Ninetails Alice - Mother Dragon Zack - Ice Golem Buttons - Marionette Raine - Rose Carnivorous Avel - Centaur Lance - Ancient Knight Mattea - Succubus Avalon - Starry Songstress Freya - Hraesvelgr Lisa - Holo Tortoise Katie - Fenrir Jimmy - Shadow of Vengeance Sachi - Ifrit Dogachu - Cerberus Somnis - Goddess of Light
Players would have chosen and made their own summons.
...I guess all of the Guardians would be helpful in some way. None of them were going to like...fight with you or anything.
Zanark would have been the most difficult, naturally. Although Oren would have been really cool. It was a gigantic mechanical airship you'd have to fight in the clouds while it circles around you. Each weapon it had would be targetable and then you could also hit the main body. It was a cool fight idea.
No, nobody in the party would have been kidnapped. Only ones I had left on the kidnap list were Avalon and Katie.

Kidnapping Katie would've been... interesting. Natsumi in full mama wolf mode, literally dragging Fox around to be the hero to rescue her.
Also ignore the sound of me scratching things off my notes and hurriedly changing a few characters' roles.

It's hard to think of questions that are objective and wouldn't involve my character and his possible role. Oh, what about those Super Stat Weapons or whatever? The one that Rix got for that test and there was one for each stat?

Yeah, there were ten gems for each social stat. Collect all ten and you can make a special weapon or armor. It didn't make anything specific as it would change depending on what you made it into like all weapons and armor. The damage/protection of the equipment would be determined by your corresponding social stat, which should have been pretty high at that point to gain those things. So if you have 50 Kindness, you'd be stronger with the Kindness Gem weapon than someone with 23 Kindness.

What was Zacks part in all this? and what was his connection to the organization?
Okay so Orgin was the true final boss? But what would have happened if we didn't get the ranks we needed to get? What would have been different gameplay and ending wise?
Speaking of which was there different endings? Like a bad ending? Normal? Good? True? Etc.
Was there a sequel in the works like not just a mini cyoa but like Dating Sim pt.2 wheres its a couple of years later type thing?
The original humans that first arrived the guardians were talking about. Was that in fact the orginazation they were talking about?
Also to a lesser extent what was the originations name?
Any person turn out exactly as you planned in the beginning? Anyone turn out to be completely different from what you envisioned?
What would everyone's halloween custome been?
When was destiny land planned and what would it have been like?
What did the DLC missions unlock the winter and summer vacations?
What would christmas and valentines day been like?
Your favorite character you liked writing for? Least favorite? One that you thought would hate but end up loving? One you thought would love but were disappointed in?
Was Karl ever going to be useful in combat?

Zack was Alice's partner and he was forced to work for the organization because they kidnapped his little sister.
Those who didn't have max ranks would be unable to fight Origin without dying way too easily.
Bad Ending - Evil Somnis becomes Origin Normal Ending - Some monsters were killed, some were not and all the souls were collected. The party defeats Origin World and separates the two worlds completely. Somnis does not disappear, but her father and memories are never revealed and she gets the feeling something's missing. Good Ending - The party takes out Origin with Somnis, but not all max ranks are gained, so the Lisa Answer is not unlocked. True Ending - The party defeats Origin and all ranks are maxed. Somnis disappears and the Lisa Answer is unlocked.
I wasn't planning on having a sequel. I believe when a game's done, it's done and you shouldn't stretch out the plot just for the sake of making more. I wouldn't be opposed to making another game with similar mechanics and concepts, but it wouldn't connect aside from maybe one or two easter eggs/cameos and it would be it's own different thing.
Yes, the first humans that arrived were the scientists working on the other world project. The organization that we see now, however, was led by the businessmen funding the program. They turned the scientific discovery into a profitable venture with their greed and instead tried to kill the monsters for their rare and valuable resources, which were much more rich and powerful than Earth's resources.
The organization's name was undecided. I figured it didn't really matter and I'd come up with something when we got there. But I was probably leaning toward The Vitcon Project or something like that.
I didn't expect Raine to be the most popular character at all. Most of my characters didn't really change while I was playing the game. Oh, I guess Somnis did. I definitely was not expecting Somnis to end up how she was, but there's something about her that I liked. Her craziness yet being secretly smart was interesting. My favorite character was probably Fox or Tom. I liked Freya a lot too. I didn't really like writing for Avel as much because he's hard to do. It wasn't because I don't like him or that he was a bad character, but rather because it's hard to write such a quiet character that does so much crap to help other people. He would have been really interesting if anyone that wasn't Robbie interacted with him and got into that hidden story stuff.
Laura - Boxer Tom - Bouncer Fox - Kitsune Alice - Doctor Zack - Mummy Buttons - Demon Lord Raine - Flower Princess Avel - Ninja Lance - King Mattea - Vampire Avalon - Angel Freya - Crow Lisa - Nario Katie - Werewolf Jimmy - Ghost Sachi - Just a ****in' piece of toast Dogachu - Player's Choice Somnis - Player's Choice
