1''Dangancord: Sky High Havoc'' is a ''Franchise/{{Danganronpa}}'' fan-roleplay run on Discord by a user named Moon.
2
318 online friends wake up on floor 164 of a skyscraper, not remembering how they got there. Soon, the mysterious Monobasket reveals -- they're trapped in a killing game.
4
5The RP eventually quietly drifted to a halt around chapter 3, but was rebooted as ''DarthWiki/DangancordRebooted''.
6
7!!The RP contains examples of:
8
9* AgainstMyReligion: Ana won't eat meat due to unspecified religious restrictions, which is a problem when Monobasket outright ''orders'' everyone to. Robin mentions that Ana's religion recognizes their headmate Sylvi as an obligate carnivore[[note]]even though humans are in fact omnivores; apparently Ana believes that despite this Sylvi still falls into the ''spirit'' of this exception[[/note]] and would allow ''her'' to eat meat in Ana's place, which fact is currently useless to them because Sylvi is in the middle of a HeroicBSOD.
10* AlterEgoActing: Everyone is playing a fictionalized version of themselves.
11* BodyHorror: The effects of the cheese virus in the second chapter not only makes its victims think everything tastes like cheese, it also makes holes in their body - as Heather and E find out the hard way.
12* ClusterBleepBomb: Haze unleashes a profanity-laden tirade when Moon says they should die even though they didn't even do the crime:
13-->'''Haze''': "'''''ALL OF US ARE GOING TO (BEEP)-ING DIE, YOU (BEEP)-ING (BEEP). (BEEP) YOUR (BEEP)-ING EDGINESS, MOON!''''' ''He starts loosing breath'' '''''IF YOU WONT HELP US FIND THE (BEEP)-ING MURDERER, SIT THE (BEEP) DOWN, SHUT THE (BEEP) UP, AND LET US DO IT WITHOUT YOU!'''''
14* CoolMask: The Tempests [[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/552904117534588935/852371880882470922/flesh_vessel_picrew_427888.png wear a black facemask]]. The RP takes place in a timeline where the UsefulNotes/Covid19Pandemic has already ended, so it's not for that reason -- Sylvi outright says she wears it because she thinks it's cute.
15* CuteKitten: The Tempests' "Ultimate Cat Cafe Operator Office" is filled with adorable kitties that everyone loves. Even Pika, who is hilariously allergic.
16* ExactWords: Early on, Ana reassures Pika and Heather that "you can trust we won't drop that we're really the Ultimate Infiltrator anticlimactically at the last moment, like we did in [[DarthWiki/{{Discordronpa}} DDR2]]". [[spoiler:The implication that this is because they ''aren't'' the Ultimate Infiltrator is deliberately misleading, but they indeed do not drop a {{Reveal}} anticlimactically at the last moment.]]
17* ExplosiveLeash: Every player is fitted with an explosive collar that will detonate if they break the game's rules, [[spoiler:with the exception of Mazz and Sunny, who instead have mysterious bracelets that ''presumably'' serve a similar function, though this has not been confirmed.]]
18* {{Foreshadowing}}: Heather, Rayz, Libre, Volk, and Aka find a laundry basket with normal clothes on the meeting room's table. Later on, Clay, Fran, Moon, E, Heather, and Zanreo hear a voice from the back of the same room. specifically the laundry basket, as it's revealed that it's actually Monobasket, the host of the game.
19* GenreSavvy: Moon, Pika, and the Tempests have all played enough ''Danganronpa'' SelfInsert fangames to recognize the structure of them and figure out that they're in one almost immediately upon waking up.
20* HeroicSelfDeprecation: During the last part of the first chapter and most of the second, Haze outright considers himself useless. Libre telling him that he wouldn't care much if he died [[SanitySlippage didn't help]].
21* KillerRabbit: Monobasket is a ''[[AnimateInanimateObject laundry basket]]'', which in no way stops it from being as deadly as any other killing game host.
22* LifeOrLimbDecision: {{Discussed|Trope}} in regards to the first motive, a mysterious bracelet with a timer counting down 96 hours. One of the more common theories is that it'll inject a deadly poison when the timer hits 0, and the Tempests suggest that people who believe that might cut off their hand to avoid it.
23* MaliciousMisnaming: Many characters misname Monobasket spitefully with various names - ranging from Monobitch, Monojackass, Monowhore, to Bombobasket.
24* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Among the Tempests, Robin has a distinctly more feminine aesthetic than Sylvi. He has a whole conversation (mostly by himself) about wanting an excuse to wear a sparkly dress and be eye candy, while Sylvi describes herself as "slobcore" and doesn't even own any dresses.
25* MeatOVision: While [[TheStoner extremely high]], Fran thinks that the Tempests look like a granola bar.
26* MeanCharacterNiceActor: ''DarthWiki/{{Discordronpa}}'' canonically took place as a roleplay in this continuity, and almost everyone who was a {{Jerkass}} in that game is much nicer "in person".
27* NightmareFace: During his chat with Libre in chapter 2's epilogue, Haze makes quite a few taken from ''VideoGame/ToDoList'', with the SlasherSmile he makes when he accuses Libre of not caring driving Libre to tears.
28-->'''Libre (in the groupchat):''' HOW IS HAZE MAKING THESE HORRIFIC EXPRESSIONS AAAA
29* ParanoiaGambit: {{Discussed|Trope}} in regards to the first motive, a bracelet with a mysterious timer counting down 96 hours. Monobasket makes a point of not specifying what will happen when the timer hits 0, leading some to suggest that it might not do anything at all.
30* RageBreakingPoint:
31** During the second chapter's trial, Libre tries to keep himself from yelling as more and more suspicions, contradictions, and arguments over the possibility of Jay being Coolkid's killer builds up. Whilst he has bouts of rage at times, the real breaking point where he goes feral occurs when Jay lies to the others on who infected him, due to it involving Libre.
32--->'''Jay:''' I had no choice, Libre infected me. It felt like it was... The motivation.\
33'''Rayz:''' Oh!? Damn so you were infected.\
34'''Haze:''' …He did?\
35'''Jay:''' A sign to get back to writing.\
36'''Libre:''' '''''what in the fuck what in the fuck what in the fuck THIS IS HOW YOU- I DID NOT INFECT YOU! I WAS NEVER INFECTED!!!!'''''
37** Haze undergoes a similar one in the aftermath of said trial, especially after Libre says he feels apathetic.
38--->'''Libre''': ''[tearing up]'' …why…why am i so dead inside…why don't i feel the pain even amongst the ones my family members share…\
39'''Haze''': '''So you admit it?'''\
40'''Libre''': …[[BluntYes yes]]. ''[sobbing]''\
41'''Haze''': '''''Why?'''''\
42'''Libre''': I… DUNNO! MAYBE YEARS OF BEING ADDICTED TO GAMES AND ENTERTAINMENT HAVE ROTTED MY BRAIN IN THIS FASHION!\
43'''Haze''': '''Oh, so you blame ''THAT?!'''''
44* RefugeInAudacity: Retroactively, [[spoiler:the Tempests' {{anticlima|x}}ctic last-second {{Reveal}} in ''DarthWiki/{{Discordronpa}} 2'' of being the Ultimate Infiltrator was an "audacious coverup bluff" intended to draw suspicion away from them ''really'' being the Ultimate Infiltrator in the "real life" of this game.]]
45* ShowWithinAShow: Other killing game roleplays (such as ''DarthWiki/{{Discordronpa}}'' and ''Roleplay/TheMurderverse'') are established to exist in the roleplay as their own fictional killing game roleplays.
46* ShoutOut:
47** Haze loves VideoGame/HearthstoneHeroesOfWarcraft, and even created his own physical cards at some point. He also does [[VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield Leon's Charizard Pose]] at one point.
48** Zanreo's outfit features references to various (in)famous bootleg characters and works, such as [[VideoGame/TheFlintstonesTheRescueOfDinoAndHoppy GRAND DAD'S]] hat with [[VideoGame/DianShiMaLi Fortran]] and Ogorki[[note]]a [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] knockoff character from a pickle jar[[/note]] pins, and her [[FunTShirt shirt]] features the WebVideo/BackstrokeOfTheWest opening crawl.
49** During his discussion with Libre in chapter 2's epilogue, Haze makes several {{Nightmare Face}}s taken from the latter part of ''VideoGame/ToDoList''.
50* SpiritualSuccessor: By the same GM as ''DarthWiki/{{Discordronpa}}'', and approximately the same premise -- a Fangan full of self-inserts with a [[KillerRabbit comical-yet-deadly]] host. The main difference is leaving behind the Paramount Peak setting and continuity for a new one.
51* WorldsBestCharacter: Comes with [[Franchise/{{Danganronpa}} the territory]], as usual. Everyone has an Ultimate skill, and it plays into the plot.
