History Roleplay / TheVelvetKey

* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Averted in Asuka's eyes by V/V's previous nature as [[AngelNotes TYPE-Venus]]. The former was half horrified and half glad there was someone from a similar world out there. The latter was just more or less horrified at the ensuing death threats.

* IncorruptiblePurePureness: [[AngelNotes V/V]] loves humanity and would really like to get along with people who have murdered her.

* AffablyEvil: [[LightNovel/FateZero Ryuunosuke]] made a post asking about the feasibility of getting a kitten on the same day that he killed [[{{Vocaloid}} Kaito]].

* BroughtDownToNormal: Why a {{Vocaloid}} and a [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Heroic Spirit]] can be basically on the same team.

[[http://tvk.dreamwidth.org/ A panfandom Dreamwidth roleplay]] that ran from 2011 to 2013. The characters have been brought into Prospero, a city that looks relatively normal, until midnight. Then, the Dark Hour, straight from ''{{Persona 3}}'', emerges. Normal people turn into coffins and monsters called Shadows flood the city. To fight these Shadows and learn why they were brought here, the characters must use their new powers of Persona.

* DemotedToExtra: Happens to anyone apped from the actual Persona series. Poor [[{{Persona3}} Minato]].

* EnemyWithout: In November, there was an event in which the [=PCs=] had to face ''VideoGame/{{Persona 4}}''-like Shadow clones of themselves, albeit greatly toned down relative to the source material.

** [[VideoGame/{{Persona 3}} Minato's Orpheus]], in contrast to his personality.

* TarotMotifs: It's a game based on {{Persona 3}}. What did you expect?

* CasualDangerDialog: [[{{Mahabharata}} Karna]], when asked on how he felt if his life was in danger upon arrival, and basically shrugs off the thought. Granted, he's seen a lot in his time, so it's no wonder.

* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Theoretically [[LightNovel/FateZero Lancer]] doesn't have his curse anymore, but considering his involvement in the love polyhedron includes [[DGrayman Neah]], [[LightNovel/FateZero Ryuunosuke]], and [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Issei]], you'd be forgiven for thinking it had gotten stronger.

** [[LightNovel/FateZero Waver Velvet's]] shadow during the Personal Shadow event tried to do this to [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Issei Ryudo]]. The reason? He was upset that [[AlexanderTheGreat Rider]] had taken Issei as a vassal and thought that he was being replaced.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: Anyone who isn't human ''at all'', outside of the Dark Hour. [[RivieraThePromisedLand Ein]] gets special mention for also being this ''during'' the Dark Hour.

** April on her feelings towards [[RivieraThePromisedLand Ledah]], mainly due to how she doesn't want to make things awkward betweem them. But she later manages to spit it out.

* DudeLooksLikeALady: Not as bad as [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Saber]], but [[RivieraThePromisedLand Ledah]] has gotten a shocked reaction on mentioning that he's a man, and he doesn't even encourage the misconception like Saber does.
* [[EmotionlessGirl Emotionless Guy]]: [[RivieraThePromisedLand Ledah]] actually has emotions now, though he tries not to show them much.

** Oh, and then there's [[FutariWaPrettyCureSplashStar Kaoru]], she who never smiles.

* MythologyGag: [[FutariWaPrettyCureSplashStar Kaoru]] just ''had'' to discover the wonder of sleeping in beds a [[Roleplay/TheGrailWars third]] [[Roleplay/TheSkyTides time]].

* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Theoretically [[FateZero Lancer]] doesn't have his curse anymore, but considering his involvement in the love polyhedron includes [[DGrayman Neah]], [[FateZero Ryuunosuke]], and [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Issei]], you'd be forgiven for thinking it had gotten stronger.

* GoKartingWithBowser / VillainsOutShopping: Even the evil characters need jobs. [[FateZero Ryuunosuke]] is a local bartender and happily chats up people he recognizes.

* MurderTheHypotenuse: [[VisualNovel/FateZero Sola-Ui]] did this to Saber very soon after her arrival.

* NamesTheSame: The ShinMegamiTensei Cu Chulainn and the VisualNovel/FateStayNight Cu Chulainn look nothing alike - [[FateZero Diarmuid]] has the former as his Persona, while the other cast members have encountered the latter.

* ShipperOnDeck: [[FateZero Ryuunosuke for Lancer and Saber]] because it freaks them out and it's funny, and also because he genuinely likes them.

* BreakTheCutie: Happened to [[BreathofFireIV Ryu]] as a result of his canon update, and happened ''again'' when he came across [[Videogame/{{Xenosaga}} Albedo]] mutilating a corpse.

** MoralityChain: Given Gilgamesh's rampage when Naoya killed V/V...
** Also [[BreathofFireIV Ryu]] for [[Videogame/{{Xenosaga}} Albedo]].

** [[{{Persona 3}} Minato's Orpheus]], in contrast to his personality.
** [[RivieraThePromisedLand Ledah Rozwelli]], presumably as the celestial sort of flame
** [[BreathOfFireIV Ryu's]] Persona, to match with his elemental association in canon.

* EnemyWithout: In November, there was an event in which the [=PCs=] had to face {{Persona 4}}-like Shadow clones of themselves, albeit greatly toned down relative to the source material.

* GoKartingWithBowser / VillainsOutShopping: Even the CompleteMonster characters need jobs. [[FateZero Ryuunosuke]] is a local bartender and happily chats up people he recognizes.

** Looking away from the Lovers event for a moment, [[http://tvk.dreamwidth.org/194219.html here's an example]] of being yandere for your ''kid''. [[{{Squick}} Uh...]]

** Notably [[AvertedTrope averted]] with [[BlazBlue Jin Kisaragi]]. He's taken from the end of Continuum Shift, so he's resistant to Yukianesa's influence. Not that it matters here, of course...

* {{Jerkass}}: A few characters, including [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Gilgamesh]], [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Asuka]], and [[BlazBlue Jin]].

** TheCallKnowsWhereYouLive: [[BlazBlue Jin]] ''tried'' to do this, only to get attacked by Shadows ''way'' too close to the hotel.

[[http://tvk.dreamwidth.org/ A 2011-present panfandom Dreamwidth roleplay.]] The characters have been brought into Prospero, a city that looks relatively normal, until midnight. Then, the Dark Hour, straight from ''{{Persona 3}}'', emerges. Normal people turn into coffins and monsters called Shadows flood the city. To fight these Shadows and learn why they were brought here, the characters must use their new powers of Persona.

* HulaAndLuaus: Usually averted with Prospero, although it's not stated for sure that it ''is'' part of Hawai'i, just that it's in America and it's a tropical island. The obvious trait that it shares with real-life Hawai'i is the high influx of Japanese tourists, if only because JournalRoleplay has a very high population of anime characters.

[[http://tvk.dreamwidth.org/ A fairly recent panfandom Dreamwidth roleplay.]] The characters have been brought into Prospero, a city that looks relatively normal, until midnight. Then, the Dark Hour, straight from ''{{Persona 3}}'', emerges. Normal people turn into coffins and monsters called Shadows flood the city. To fight these Shadows and learn why they were brought here, the characters must use their new powers of Persona.

* YamatoNadeshiko: Saori.

* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: ...well, Kaoru can't really say she loves much of anything, but she possesses a [[ConAir small pink stuffed bunny]] that John gave her while she was in the hospital. She's confused by it and later asks what it's for. [[TearJerker By the time she's out of the hospital, he's fallen victim to the mass disappearance]] [[ObliviousToLove and she never really understood why he gave it to her]].

* ReiAyanamiExpy: Well, Asuka calls Kaoru "Wonderlessgirl".

* AmbiguouslyHuman: Anyone who isn't human ''at all'', outside of the Dark Hour.

* TarotTroubles: Eater did a surprisingly accurate session of card readings once -- surprisingly because it wasn't decided on OOC knowledge; the mun did actual readings with a real deck while tagging the post.

* {{Bifauxnen}}: Most of the island is under the impression that [[FateStayNight Saber]] is a guy.

* BroughtDownToNormal: Why a {{Vocaloid}} and a [[FateStayNight Heroic Spirit]] can be basically on the same team.

* DudeLooksLikeALady: Not as bad as [[FateStayNight Saber]], but [[RivieraThePromisedLand Ledah]] has gotten a shocked reaction on mentioning that he's a man, and he doesn't even encourage the misconception like Saber does.

* ExtraStrengthMasquerade: The civilians conveniently forget or don't believe anything like Personae, revival upon death, and people showing up claiming to be from other worlds. The PCs getting frustrated with this is a big part of why they usually only befriend each other.

* GenreSavvy: [[GirlGenius Klaus Wulfenbach]] figured out pretty quickly that space/time shenanigans were afoot re: his arrival. Being a Mad Scientist pays off sometimes.

* GratuitousGerman[=/=]ForeignCussWord: Asuka is a real pottymouth in her native language. She also orders her Persona around with German phrases since she thinks in German, refers to her Persona with the modern German spelling (Brünnhilde as opposed to Brynhildr) and occasionally just throws in an honorific or greeting in German because her player feels like it.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: [[FateStayNight Gilgamesh]] and [[Literature/TheEpicOfGilgamesh Enkidu]]. [[HoYay Or are they]]?

* MissionControl: [[PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Madoka]] is here to remind you that there's [[CaptainObvious only one enemy left]]!

** [[LightNovel/FateZero Waver Velvet's]] shadow during the Personal Shadow event tried to do this to [[FateStayNight Issei Ryudo]]. The reason? He was upset that [[AlexanderTheGreat Rider]] had taken Issei as a vassal and thought that he was being replaced.

* NamesTheSame: The ShinMegamiTensei Cu Chulainn and the FateStayNight Cu Chulainn look nothing alike - [[FateZero Diarmuid]] has the former as his Persona, while the other cast members have encountered the latter.

** [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Asuka]]'s Persona isn't just a fire-type to match her [[FieryRedhead hair and attitude]], she's [[IncendiaryExponent literally on fire]] due to how [[Theatre/TheRingOfTheNibelung her legend]] ended.

** [[BreathOfFireIV Ryu]]'s Persona, to match with his elemental association in canon.
* RealityEnsues: One of [[AceAttorney Edgeworth's]] many sources of frustration is discovering that in ''this'' world, learning a single fact can take months of investigation.

** [[OriginalCharacter Saori]] for [[GirlGenius Klaus]] and [[OriginalCharacter Ingrid]] but she hasn't made it public yet and it doesn't help they all live on the same hotel floor.

* StaffChick: Lucia, complete with actual staff.

** [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Asuka]]'s Persona isn't just a fire-type to match her [[FieryRedhead hair and attitude]], she's [[IncendiaryExponent literally on fire]] due to how [[TheRingOfTheNibelung her legend]] ended.

* BecomingTheMask/[[spoiler: RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething]]: [[FateExtra Rider]], Rider, ''[[http://tvklogs.dreamwidth.org/39200.html?thread=2629152#cmt2629152 Rider]]''.

* CanNotSpitItOut: Saori on confessing her feelings for Kaiji until the Personal Shadow event where she clocked her own Shadow and tells it not to touch 'her man'. Kaiji takes it rather well.

* GenreSavvy: [[GirlGenius Klaus Wulfenbach]] figured out pretty quickly that space/time shenanigans were afoot re: his arrival. Being a Mad Scientist pays off sometimes.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: [[FateStayNight Gilgamesh]] and [[TheEpicOfGilgamesh Enkidu]]. [[HoYay Or are they]]?
