From the same gang on Website/FourChan's /m/ that brought you ''Roleplay/SuperRobotWarsQuest'', ''Roleplay/SuperRobotWarsG'', and the Roleplay/MusouVerse comes an observation of what happens when the venerable henshin heroes of the ''Franchise/KamenRider'' franchise are succeeded by a bunch of high schoolers.

''Kamen Rider: Hour of the Void'' is a play-by-IRC game concocted on Rizon's family of #kamenridervoid channels (though the IC channel of that exact name has been [[strike:decommissioned]] suspended) and logged meticulously at [[http://tabletopkamenrider2.pbworks.com/ the PBWorks workspace]] of DM "nazca", played ostensibly using the ''TabletopGame/MutantsAndMasterminds'' engine as combat benchmarks. We say "ostensibly" because combat is regularly eclipsed by freeform [[DatingSim Social Link building]] worthy of the jury-rigged ''VideoGame/Persona3'' backdrop.

The year is [[YearX hilariously obscured by Xs]], but undeniably in the future beyond the last Great Rider War. Mysterious phenomena signal the macabre encroachment of the [[TheHiddenHour Hour of the Void]], a time of night where [[EldritchAbomination hellish monstrosities]] join the usual Rider adversaries of unruly kaijin and rogue belts. To counter the threat, a MegaCorp forged from the ashes of [[Series/KamenRiderKabuto ZECT]] and [[Series/KamenRider555 Smart Brain]] has pooled its Rider Gears for use by the [[FunWithAcronyms Shocker Elimination and Execution Squad]], operating out of Gekkoukan High on Iwatodai. The ragtag band of students tapped to staff SEES, however, gets far more than they bargained for in the form of personality conflicts, interference by outside forces, and the occasional downright humiliation in-battle.

...They make up for it, however, by slinging {{Tokusatsu}} {{Homage}}s, pop culture references, and pervy innuendo like nobody's business.

Has inspired (to mixed fanfare) a GaidenGame known as ''Roleplay/RideAloneComplex'' which adheres to the M&M mechanics a little more rigidly.

!!Please use caution when populating the Trope List. Anything specific to less than three characters (as few as two if it's REALLY notable) needs to go on [[Characters/KamenRiderHourOfTheVoid the Character Sheet]] instead.

* ActingInTheDark: Let's just say the Dark Kiva arc and all its backlash was brought about almost entirely by this and leave it at that.
* {{Artificial Human}}s and HalfHumanHybrids: Tachibana/SEES employs, at last count, two each of (moderately) sedate [[Series/KamenRider555 Orphenochs]] and [[Series/KamenRiderKiva Fangires]]. [[spoiler:Not to mention Sae being a proper Showa cyborg and Tomoe somehow harboring [[Series/KamenRiderKuuga N Daguva Zeba]] for a time.]]
** And now Kenoko has undergone the Showa cyborg conversion as circumvention to her SoapOperaDisease (actually implied to be accelerated degradation of her nerves due to copping Yuriko's ghetto Rider Punch when she was younger). [[spoiler:Tomoe MAY be joining her, if the bait-and-switch by Suika following Kenoko's operation is any indication.]]
* [[RedEyesTakeWarning Black Eyes Take Warning]]: In a natural subversion of the usual RETW, the occasional shifts to technicolor eye colors are no particularly dangerous concern. The [[BlackEyesOfEvil jet black]] of an impure [[Series/KamenRiderKuuga Ultimate Kuuga]], on the other hand, is not only reason enough to expel mortar from posteriors, but a memetic sign on the IRC channels that someone's REALLY ticked off.
** And then Haruka transcends this via the development of [[Series/KamenRiderBlackRX Black RX]] Eyes. In [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge character]], [[TranquilFury no]] [[LetsGetDangerous less]].
** And suddenly played straight with [[spoiler:Miki's Ryuga-induced growth spurt]].
** Whenever one of Double's forms goes purple-eyed, something is going to be hurting very soon. [[spoiler:Going 5v1 against Ingrid, Rape Machine and the latter's three Contract Monsters for one example. Headbutting a {{Mook}} so hard his forehead disintegrated, and also the Cyclone Impact that ended Jack's life.]]
* BlandNameProduct: The setting as a whole is somewhat inconsistent about its ProductPlacement: console video games are represented by and large by the [=GameSphere=] and [=CompStation 360=], but portable systems and franchises are untouched (evidenced by Haruka's Fangire form being recognized as a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Gardevoir]]), ancient (by the setting) consoles are explicitly named, and fizzy soft drinks are also ordered by name (particularly Oranamin C, a drink plugged infrequently by Heisei Riders, and Mountain Dew simply as Haruka's [[TrademarkFavoriteFood signature drink]]). Oh yeah, there's also the Creator/{{Sega}} [[Advertising/SegataSanshiro Sanshiro]].
* [[CastFullOfGay Cast Full Of Lesbians]]: A side effect of a large YuriFan player base. Ample male interaction still exists, however.
** But see ImprobablyFemaleCast below.
* CityOfAdventure: Iwatodai, tailor-made to abuse every stock setting ''Persona'' and 30 years of Toku filming used beforehand.
* DeathsHourglass: Death herself shows off several of these when coming to collect the retcon-killed Wyll. Of particular note are [[spoiler:Alice having an absurdly infinitesimal supply of sand, preserved only by her bond to Alex]] and [[spoiler:Jack having only a week to go even BEFORE Haruka and Alexice off him]].
** Others of interest, revealed in the course of the Time Trippin' Wedding: [[spoiler:Ingrid's is running short, yet choked by stained glass]] and [[spoiler:Django's own is merely a container for the ring Inoue stole from her]].
* DefinitelyJustACold: Kenoko pulls this act when she suffers a burnout after a combat patrol; fortunately she's surrounded by SEES' more intelligent members at the time, and they don't buy it for a single second.
* [[strike: FightClubbing meets UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny in the [[http://tabletopkamenrider2.pbworks.com/w/page/Underground-Colosseum Underground Colosseum.]]]] [[ReassignedToAntarctica Nevermind.]]
* FoeTossingCharge and UnstoppableRage: Invoked by Yuriko when Evil!Jin rescues Kuma mid-FaceHeelTurn, prompting her to effortlessly throw Hyper Kabuto, Ultimate Kuuga, and Hibiki Armed aside like ragdolls, only to be [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown nearly killed in a single shot by Black Decade Complete.]]
* FourIsDeath: Specifically, [[spoiler:Chapter 4 of the Time Trippin' Ride brings the death of Jack Lukles via last-minute Negataros bailout]].
* FridgeHorror: The Hour of the Void erases the existence of those who die in it. Now consider that a good chunk of this RP is based off of character interaction. It's been largely agreed that if any of ten characters end up dying, things would get really fucked up. Examples of what might happen can be found on the character page.
** The actual logic at work here is tenuous at best, but it's a fun [[PeggySue what-if scenario.]]
* [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire Friendly Neighborhood Fangires]]: GenkiGirl Hamuko and GoodBadGirl Haruka definitely apply, for certain literal and [[ReallyGetsAround figurative]] definitions of "friendly" accordingly.
* GoKartingWithBowser: Gally's frequent (and several other SEES Riders' not-so-frequent) fraternization with Kirihiko and Chiyoko smacks of this given the latter pair's distrust of them.
* GoodGuyBar: Wyll sets up one in the dorm after dropping the full-on douche act. Its fate is unknown, due to the core SEES command structure being disappoint and Wyll himself temporarily being stuck in retcon-murder limbo.
* GorgeousGarmentGeneration: For all of Jin's obsession about getting his hands on snazzy suits, he appears to have a techno-closet aboard the Zeroliner tasked to this. Or maybe it was added during the renovation to the "Royceliner." Haruka and Kaoru get WholeCostumeReference wardrobe upgrades from it, regardless.
* HamToHamCombat: The Time Trippin' Wedding. Good GOD. Over a month of side-plot railroading, meta tension, and at least one [[CreatorBreakdown player breakdown]] ensued upon the debut of Dark Kiva, and the entire B-Plot team finally (albeit over the course of a week) managed to get their revenge.
* HenshinHero: Well, it IS a Franchise/KamenRider roleplay...
* TheHiddenHour: The titular Hour of the Void, naturally, given its direct lifting from ''Persona 3'''s Dark Hour.
* ImprobablyFemaleCast: Narrowly averted despite the majority of the players being {{Yuri Fan}}s. A smattering of male [=NPCs=] helps make up the slack immensely, and the few male [=PCs=] play just as dynamically as the ladies.
** Except that the male characters and their players get [[DoubleStandard nowhere near as much respect.]]
* HollywoodBoardGames: Phoenix Chronos has been barred from playing all sorts of board games; including ''TabletopGame/{{Monopoly}}'', ''TabletopGame/{{Pictionary}}'', ''TabletopGame/GuessWho?'', ''TabletopGame/{{Battleship}}'', ''TabletopGame/{{Twister}}'', and TabletopGame/{{chess}}. When and how those bannings happened are {{Noodle Incident}}s, but they should really clue you in that he's an extremely HotBlooded LargeHam.
* LawEnforcementInc: Mild snarking has been had about SEES being part anti-Void task force and part vigilante army under corporate employ. Tachibana's monopoly on Gears, however, is less than absolute as the existences of the Time-Space Police Department and SHOCKHOUND attest.
* LevelUpAtIntimacy5: Gradual and {{Midseason Upgrade}}s alike are granted as the result of [=SL10=] Bonuses. As in ''P3'' before it, a degree of MoreFriendsMoreBenefits is encouraged to gain and maintain new powers.
** As seen in the ImprobablyFemaleCast and discussed in the opening statement, this aspect of the game has all but eclipsed the rest.
* [[MeanwhileInTheFuture Meanwhile Aboard RoyceLiner]]: The preferred plot split method of experienced, amateur, and probationary time-traveling Riders alike. SanDimasTime is enforced liberally through the present-day characters' links to the endangered past/future.
* MerchandiseDriven: The ''Kamen Rider'' franchise proper's toyetic drive is mercilessly homaged and lampooned through mock [=CMs=] concocted to fill "programming gaps" between parts of sessions. These can range from the perfectly plausible (re-releases of DX Henshin Belts) to the demeaning ([[UnluckyEverydude Aoki-flavored]] Bitch Tears) to the just plain incongruous ([[LesbianVampire Haruka]] and [[DepravedBisexual Rape Machine]]-flavored [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Sausages]]).
* NinjaMaid: There sure are a lot of {{meido}} enthusiasts among SEES, from Sacchin adopting it as her uniform of choice to Sae and Kaoru's fixation on the culture...and even Faruko taking on MaidCafe service part-time as decorum TrainingFromHell. (To say nothing of [[spoiler:Sacchin ascending to Maid King ([[InsistentTerminology yes, King]]) by defeating a [[Series/KamenRider555 Maid Kaixa attended by Maid Deltas]]]].)
** KRV's UrExample of this trope? [[spoiler:Fangire Queen Sanae performs her duties incognito in maid wear]].
* NoodleIncident: We do not mention just WHAT Royce did in 1984 during her short-lived tenure as New Den-O. The cloud of paperwork is just THAT thick.
** Wyll and Rape Machine have a similar one with the most hilarious NoodleImplements - a baby, a pitchfork, a fried octopus strapped to a table, and Creator/WaltDisney's frozen brain.
* OffTheShelfFX: WordOfGod and Player alike is that to offset the budget imbalance of [[Series/KamenRiderKiva Kivat]] and [[Series/KamenRiderDecade Kivaara]] waffling between this and blatantly noticeable CGI, the former is all-CG while the latter is all-toy-on-a-string.
* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: SEES has almost ''zero'' combat missions for nearly ten weeks of in-game time. When they very occasionally do do something, it tends to end ''very'' badly.
* {{Polyamory}}: Chiyoko preaches the benefits of it; about half the [=PCs=] are currently embroiled in it.
* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnFemale: Explored slightly with "the party" and Asuka's efforts to contain the fallout from drunken shenanigans with Sae and Sacchin. Narrowly averted with [=FangOreo=] and pals due to the gray area of [[HypnoRay psy-stimulation]].
** RapeAsDrama: Subsequently invoked in [[spoiler:Inoue mind-controlling Hamuko]] and the ensuing race against the act itself taking place.
*** And then moreso with [[spoiler:Xanadu having his way with Gally]]. [[MoodWhiplash Right after the B-plot resolved the above.]]
* ShowWithinAShow: [[strike:Haruka's]] [[PaperThinDisguise Dr. Sana-chan's]] "Body Communication", a love-line radio program ostensibly frequented by many of the other characters.
* TalkingToThemself: More "thinking to themself," but Alex/Alice indulge frequently, as do Hamuko/Aiko as they break out of their shell.
* TwoLinesNoWaiting: Generally at least two plots going on at once, as many as four if a given day turns out being productive even after the sole DM adjourns for sleep.
** ThirdLineSomeWaiting: Of course, if at least one player has urgent need of the [=DMPCs=] and can never manage to log on while said DM is awake...
* WeAREStrugglingTogether: It seems like there are about six different plots to overthrow THI, and nobody is on each other's side.
* WhyAmITicking: Cakeboss threatens Yuriko and Kumatora with this [[spoiler: and we're not sure if he's bluffing or not]]. Yuriko takes this as an opportunity to declare that ThisMeansWar.
* WorthyOpponent: Meta-example; Kenoko's player has this attitude towards Alex and Faruko's players. Since Kenoko's player is the guy who wrote ''[[Roleplay/MusouVerse Musou Quest]]'', that shouldn't be surprising.
* YuriFan: To the extent that one of the late-comers actually altered his core character concept in order to be able to play properly. (To be fair, that character's initial [[BrotherSisterIncest brocon]] arc was well and truly resolved for half a month beforehand.)
