    Genre shifted comedy/anime protagonist.

    Maybe you were the lead protagonist, maybe you were a side character, or the comic relief, that's all in the past, cause now you are the main character and there's a sudden dearth of wacky hijinks.....

    It all started when you awoke in a...

    [X]Dark creepying room with meathooks hanging from the ceiling. (Horror)
    [X]Your completely normal bedroom. (Slice of life.)
    [X]Abandoned hospital. (Supernatural)
    [X]A futuristic room filled with holograms. (Sci fi)
    [X]A girls shower room!!! (Romance) But what's this? You're actually not the main character? (Harder than hard.)

    Let me reserve a few posts please.

    After the initial vote you won't choose what your character does, but what genre takes effect next.

    Say if you chose horror. Stuff would happen, then after that you would choose what genre would take effect next.

    Each genre has a rating, the more you choose it the higher it's rating becomes. So choosing Sci-fi could give a horror protag a gun. At higher levels this might include superpowers, mechas or even space ships.

    Of course the same could even be used against you, so maybe not such a good idea...

    The chosen starting genre will play a massive part throughout the quest. So choosing horror may mean there is always something ominous and terrifying happening, if only in the background.

    However slice of life on the flip side would place a cap of sorts, preventing things from going too weird.... Up to a point. You could create a magical girl quest for example, where part of the time you deal with regular everyday stuff, then suddenly you're off to save the day.

    Being a comedy protag there will of course be plenty of humour, but black comedy is a thing. Comedy doesn't always mean things are 'good' you may wind up the butt of the joke....

    Part Quest, Part world building.

    Can we pick (Harder than Hard) along with our genre?
     
    [X]A girls shower room!!! (Romance) But what's this? You're actually not the main character? (Harder than hard.)

    Romance-Horror-Comedy Side Character Quest is a go.
     
    [X] A Dark creepying room with meathooks hanging from the ceiling. (Horror)
    --> [X] But then you discover it's just a futuristic room filled with holograms. (Sci fi)
    ----> [X] Huh, the room seems to be in an abandoned hospital. (Supernatural)

    -[ ] I awakened with an ache that felt like gods own hangover, when my head had stopped spinning I began to get my bearings and started looking for clues as to exactly what crazy mess I had landed in this time.(Noir)

    Hmm, my noir leaves much to be desired....

    Hmm, okay, horror, supernatural and sci fi, that's doable.
