Spoiler: Psychegraph Scores and You

Actions you take and dialog choices you make will change your Psychegraph scores for better or worse. Reaching score thresholds will increase or decrease your grade, changing the strength of the corresponding Avatar and your ability to succeed at tasks involving that Avatar.

Spoiler: Taking Action

During weekly activities or other actions, your effort is determined by 2d6 plus a numerical rating based on your relevant Avatar's grade as shown below.

Legendary: 7
Nigh-Legendary: 6
Great: 5
Good: 4
Average: 3
Below Average: 2
Endangered: 1
Critical: 0

Your effort is checked against a difficulty level. If your effort meets or exceeds the difficulty level, your efforts are successful. If they aren't, your efforts are unsuccessful or of a diminished success level.

Given your sporty, outgoing nature, Exercise and Socialize come Easy to you. Everything else is Medium difficulty.

Spoiler: How This Works

You are the thoughts in the head of Kid A: college student turned road pizza turned otome villainess Grace Claudia.

You share space with six Aspects of Kid A: Brainy, Sporty, Flashy, Artsy, Sensible and Emo. They serve as your Stats mechanically and they are the CK council in your body politic.

Brainy represents academic knowledge, studying ability, and deductive abilities.
Sporty represents athletic ability, guts, and overall stamina.
Flashy represents charm, fashion sense, and overall charisma.
Artsy represents artistic ability, abstract thinking, and Disco Elysium Inland Empire stuff.

Sensible is your Common Sense: it determines your ability to read people, not listen to the bad voices, and general adulting power.

Emo is Emo You: it's a measure of your overall Stress levels.

As a Tokimemo-style raising project, your goal is to raise your Aspects in order to catch the eye of potential suitors. Unlike Tokimemo and like Disco Elysium, the higher you raise one Aspect at the expense of the others, the louder that particular Aspect gets and the more deranged your character can become.

Your Aspects have not been set just yet, but can be changed through votes, actions, discussion, and items.

Taking a bullet for us is good.

[x] Accept

Wait, sisterhood is kinda a two-way deal? Are we expected to take a bullte for her? Not good, not good at all! Tanya, we are in urgent need of designing a bulletproof vest!

Sisterhood is a two-way street, but Bridgette is thinking much more about taking a bullet for Grace than vice-versa. Tanya could hook you up with a bulletproof vest, though.

In unrelated news, can we get a Dramatis Personae? There are several chearacters who are not a part of pre-capture routes, and I started to forget them. Tanya's or Lucciano's family names appeared in the story exactly once, when they introduced themselves.

Sure thing.

DRAMATIS PERSONAE

Grace Julia Augusta Claudius: The main antagonist of Our Bloody Valentine and player character of Fall From Grace. Your average otome isekai Villainess with an SNK final boss's sense of style and fighting prowess. Currently the vessel of Kid A.

Kid A/Kid Grace (Akko Asagiri): The player character of So You've Become a Villainess. Your average otome isekai monkey-girl, with Olympic-tier athletic ability, a penchant for cosplay, and a drinking problem. Currently inhabiting Grace Claudius after slam-dancing with Truck-kun.

Autumn Lovelace: Grace Claudius' ever-busy, ever-loving combat maid. Tends to die horribly protecting Grace in the games. Currently inhabited by Chiaki Aihara.

Chiaki Aihara: Kid A's ever-learning, ever-loving best friend. Separated from Kid A due to a full ride Metaphysical Biology scholarship at Stanford, but inseparable before that. Otomege junkie. Currently inhabiting Autumn Lovelace after her heart exploded writing a dissertation on digitizing the soul.

Justine Valeria Nero Claudius: The Crimson (She-)Wolf. Baddest woman on the planet and Grace's mother. An innovator and trendsetter for all things fashion and violence. Women want to be her, men want to follow her, and the Royalist faction wants to stop her before she goes Caesar on their asses. A woman of silk-clad steel, the proverbial iron fist in velvet glove. Gave Grace an unbelievable inferiority complex she took out on others. Gives Kid Grace a role model and blueprint for womanhood.

Prince Bryn Alteisen: The prime capture target for Our Bloody Valentine, and the secondary antagonist of Fall From Grace. One of the many people who try to kill Grace and succeed, most notably at the end of Fall From Grace. A fox-eyed, handsome youth with a lust for power, a scheming side and a hidden desire to be beautiful. Inheritor of the Iron Blood: the Alteisen line's magic crest and proof of pedigree. Is normally betrothed to Grace at twelve, but Kid Grace managed to put it off until graduation. More DIO than Geordo.

Princess Bridgette Alteisen: Pugilistic princess chafing at being "just a girl". More martially inclined and aggressive than her brother, the Prince, but pushed by her parents into being docile and ladylike. Has a hair-trigger temper and a burning desire to show her father, Lord Alteisen, her strength. Has latched on hard to Kid Grace after going 0-1-1 with her in fights. Is part of Kid Grace's entourage (and a fellow fist sister), but clearly wants more. Would make a good delinquent girl in the real world.

Lord Alteisen: Current lord of the land Fall From Grace and Our Bloody Valentine takes place in. Father of Bryn and Bridgette Alteisen. A man as hard and implacable as a mountain, valuing tradition and strength over all. Not the biggest fan of Justine.

Camille Asuka: Straightforward fencing femboy. Capture target in Fall From Grace. One of the many people who try to kill Grace and succeed. An aloof, tsundere type during the game, but is almost painfully honest towards Kid Grace. Has a complex about their looks. Future heir to the Asuka Family Fencing School, a style made to counteract the use of combat dresses popularized by Justine. Has been teaching Kid Grace the style in secret from both their families. Is not a magical girl, but would look good as one.

Tanya Schwartzwald: Morally suspect alchemist and potential school shooter. One of the many people who try to kill Grace and succeed. A prodigy whose alchemic talents earned them the title of a minor noble and the ire of former Grace. Currently tsundere for Kid Grace, who has entered an anti-bully protection pact with her. Not an HR corpo in a little girl suit, but is voiced by Yuki Aoi.

Lucciano Morningstar: Cold-hearted handsome devil art pervert. The bastard child of High Priestess Maria Morningstar and an incubus, raised by nouveaux rich adventurers and endless Grace abuse into a cruel Casanova. One of the many people who try to kill Grace and succeed. Currently a wibbly softboi who gets scary intense when painting, hinting at the demon inside. Considers Kid Grace a work of art, Kid Grace considers him a fellow talent.

Lily Valentine: The protagonist and player character of Our Bloody Valentine, and the antagonist/hardest capture target of Fall From Grace. A fledgling half-vampire Darkling who hasn't tasted the heart's blood, keeping her from blossoming into true vampire nobility. Kinda mousy and nerdy, but cute enough to be an acceptable audience cipher for otomege enthusiasts. Plucky, but in a moé sort of way. Kid Grace's procession ran her over, making her act a little...differently. Now part of Kid Grace's entourage. The cause of, and solution to, all of Grace's problems.

Nameless Physicker: Really wishes she didn't come into work today.​
