Attention! This is a legacy build of the Mega Man RPG from 2017 and is no longer being maintained.
Reported bugs will not be fixed and any progress made here will not be saved.
Return to the archive index for more legacy content or
play the current version of the game for all the new stuff.
Oh no! You, yes, you over there. You are part of a thing known as the Mega Man RPG Prototype. You know that the creator and leader of this buiseness is the one and only Adrian Marceau. But, wait, he's invited you to this odd, murky dungeon. With you and other people you may or may not know, you walk into the mansion. It's remarkable, it's beautiful, but, wait, something seems odd about it. The lights are turned off, and the curtains are pulled shut, there's a note on the ground:
Wow, this "Fellow Program" seems to have kidnapped Adrian! Will you be the one to save Adrian? Or will you just be a big weenie and run away home
Now, onto the rules of this hot mess1. Sign Ups: Okay, this'll be a bit harsh I guess, but I'm still enforcing it. Only characters based off the user, like if you're Ender, your character will be based off of you. BUT, also, you can also use characters from Web Comics/Fanfics floating around this site, as long as they aren't official Mega Man characters. For example, do you want to be Rhythm_BCA's Melodia? Perhaps you'd like being EEKADO from Beta and Mega's comic? What about the fabled Moonstone from MusicalKitty's Megabound? What about [REDACTED] from SSN's game? BUT(t) here's a twist! IF these projects use an official Mega Man character, but are able to make them different to the official character, you can choose them. Pun-Loving Cut's Corner Cut Man and Short Alien Megabound Slur are on the table, however, Super-Fighting Robot BCA/Beta and Mega Mega Man is not on the table. Also, I will deny Non-Project fan characters like Blaze Man or Ninja Man on sight, and likely Official MM Characters that aren't featured in any projects like Fan or Drill Man, unless if you provide a good spin on them, like Emotionless-Killer Fan, or Renowned Mathematician Drill Man.
As of now, I'm starting to consider the use of OCs as player options in Mystery Mansion. I will accept OC characters, but as long as you give them a proper bio and at least something about their personality. If you need help with developing a character's personality, I know how to help: So, this is only one little thing, but it does go a very long way. Don't describe what the character is, but more what the character does. For example, instead of "She likes animals" you can say "She regularly holds bake sales in order to fund repopulation projects for her favorite endangered animals." And if you even want, this article by TVtropes may or may not help you out with your bio
2. Sign Up Bios: You must provide information about your character. Their personality, motives, likes and dislikes are good. You may go into more descriptive if you want. I can understand if you pick a character from like Megabound and you cannot provide a really big bio because of the character or whatnot. As for official characters you are willing to take a spin on, I expect a descriptive bio, and at least so it doesn't seem like all you did was make Mega Man green and slightly shorter.
3. Combat-ish system: Along with the Roleplay itself, there will also be a combat-ish system I guess. In your character bio, specify whether your play-style is AggressiveAssertive or Passive and the combat-ish system will be ultra simplified: -There will only be three stats: Health, Charisma, and Attack There is now five stats! And I've gone into much more detail about these stats as well!
Health: Health is what keeps the player moving. Health, as in most games, is a value used to calculate how much a player can take before giving out. Every player starts at 20 Base Health, but there are many ways that Health can be boosted: 1.) Being hit by an attack that inflicts more than 1 point of damage will increase the player's Max Health by 1!
2.) Eating different foods. Luxurious or event foods will usually increase the player's health by 10-20. Some more common foods may only boost Health by 2-5.
3.) Quests/Dungeons will also occasionally increase Health when completed.
When a player's Health reaches 0, the player is taken to the entrance of the mansion with one of their items stolen by SSJ3 the moose. However, the player can always try and bribe or persuade him to give the item back.
Charisma: Charisma, however, may be proven to be a bit more difficult to explain. Charisma is used for many things, such as: 1.) Interacting with enemies. Players may find themselves interacting and conversing with enemies. They might have an item a player is interested in, or the player may be trying to convince them not to attack. The general calculation for if an enemy will listen is usually Charisma = % Chance. Some more stubborn enemies may follow Charisma/2 = % Chance.
2.) Merchant Discounts. Most of the items bought in Mystery Mansion are through the merchants. Charisma will act as a percentage discount to these goods, the equation is (Charisma/10 = % Discount) although the cap for said discount is at 50%
3.) Enemy Drops. Enemies, when defeated, will usually have a small chance to drop an item. These item drops will have a base drop rate, but said rate will be increased by Charisma. The equation for said act is [BaseDrop * (Charisma/10)] = NewDrop. Most item drops will be simply healing items or other trinkets, but in the rare case that the enemy will drop a weapon, it will usually have a base of around 0.1%
4.) Entering Dungeons. Sure, being able to slaughter through anything possible is fun, but if you do not have enough Charisma, your options for dungeons are limited. However, there are always an assortment of quests in places like the Garden,Floor 4,Outside and the Chef's Room. As said earlier, quests are rather quick and give a well amount of money and Charisma.
There are many ways to gain Charisma as well. Many Luxurious foods will raise Charisma, doing quests will give around 5-20 Charisma per quest, and simply befriending an enemy in-battle nets a base amount of 5. Finishing dungeons will even raise the player's Charisma stat as well, although it is possible to lower your Charisma as well, although the only few recorded times it happened in Mystery Mansion were through less conventional means, so no need to worry about randomly losing 15 Charisma if you bump into an enemy on accident.
Attack: Attack is the stat used to determine the strength of attacks, as well as strength-based overworld actions (such as pushing a heavy rock, the equation for that would be Attack = % of success). The actual damage an attack will do is calculated by [Attack - Defense]. Defeating an enemy will always increase the player's attack, along with getting new weapons, and sometimes even eating Luxurious or event foods!
Immunity -Although players do not have the Immunity stat, some major enemies will have them. Immunity is simply just a defense stat for defense-piercing weapon-based attacks, no need to worry about the stat.
P.Defense: P.Defense stands for Player Defense, and is the defense stat used when attacked by player characters. This stat was mainly added in so players have a harder time with killing each other as easy as a 1000 C hot knife through soft butter. Player Defense can be increased by using items (such as the disposable equipment such as knives or ribbons that provide a +10 stat boost) and by getting hit by another player character as well will increase it by 5. Don't worry though, the mansion is a rather peaceful place and there will never be a 24/7 fear of being knocked out by other players.
N.Defense: N.Defense stands for eNcounter Defense, and is the defense stat used when attacked by enemies. N.Defense is a rather hard stat to upgrade, only really being able to be increased by high level merchants on the higher floors of the mansion, or taking up any quests that involve creating an armor.
I'll also explain the three Play styles as well: Aggressive Starting stats: Attack: 85Charisma: 35 A play style for those who don't really want to befriend any encounters in the mansion, and just fight them. I should note that just because you pick an Aggressive play style, you aren't prohibited from befriending encounters.
Assertive Starting stats: Attack: 60Charisma: 60 A play style for those that cannot choose between Aggressive or Passive, or want to be able to have the options to effectively kill or befriend encounters.
Passive Starting stats: Attack: 35Charisma: 85 A play style for those who want to befriend the encounters in the mansion. I shall note that I will try to make the three play styles as equal as possible in terms of difficulty
4. Literary Roleplaying- Yes, I know that this'll be hard for me to explain unless if I do this, so: Case A: "He flirts with the encounter, attempting to compliment its looks Case B: "*flirts with encounter*" I'd rather you to do this in the style of Case A. Write this as if you are writing a story, and please make your posts longer than three words.
Okay, I think that's it. If you do indeed have questions, I will answer them. This roleplay will start when at least two people join and are accepted, but you could join any time you want
Sign Ups?/? People
I don't care, you can join when you want to, I don't mind
(Sign Ups end 10/31/4016)By the way, Mystery Mansion has its own Discord chat now. check out the thing
The Discord server is great for players that want to improve their characters and get feedback on them, or give feedback about Mystery Mansion itself. Don't be afraid to check it out; I'm the only moderator and the server itself doesn't have any rules beyond "Don't be r00d and don't ruin the servers vibes"First to hit 700 Comments- 11/27/16 First to hit 800 Comments- 12/24/16 First to hit 900 Comments- 1/13/17 First to hit 1000 Comments- 1/30/17 (Woo!)EDIT: In no way whatsoever is this forum game perfect. It is slowly improving everyday, and I would really appreciate if you (the player) include any suggestions when you participate. Even a little comment on a stat under your post I would love!
I would also love if I were to get more players on this. Now, I'm not complaining that not enough people are playing my game, but I just love participating in Mystery Mansion, and introducing this world to new players is always very fun for me!
I'd also want to get more players on board because it really would help me with improving Mystery Mansion. Doc is (as of Feb. 12) inactive, and he was the most helpful player to me in terms of improving Mystery Mansion! But now, the game has heavily developed, and a lot of decisions (like the Valentine's Season and Item Drops) I have never gotten through with someone, and it feels as if I may be doing something horribly wrong that might even break Mystery Mansion.
In short, I love you guys that play Mystery Mansion, but I also depend on you for feedback on new additions to the gameEDIT: Ey guys I have school now and it's stressful as heck so please don't yell at me if I don't update this weekly because I haven't forgotten about this thread yet

What will you do next?@Beta Man : Beta purchased an Energy Pellet [-18.6 Zenny] and headed into the Lake (Lake 1)
Beta jumps into Lake 1 with a splash, being rejuvenated by the warm waters [+999 Health]. An array of fish started to swim around Beta, being grouped in schools of red, blue, yellow, and even a forest green. There seemed to be no harm in the waters, and Beta was even accompanied by a group of friendly fish! He started to swim further into the lake, and noticed around Lake 2 that the water was starting to get colder. Another figure could be heard swimming in the water. The fish tried to all swim away, but it was too late for the bulk of them; a Sea Lynx emerged from the waters, catching a group of green fish in its mouth.
Sea Lynx sends an electric shock* through Beta! [-11 Health] Base Attack: 2
What will you do next?@NiceIce : NiceIce returns to the Lake Headquarters, giving Adrina the Polish Cloth "Thank you, my Pumpkin's needed this for a month..." Adrina gave NiceIce the amount of Zenny found in her pockets [+15 Zenny, 15 Charisma, Green Ticket] "See that Green Ticket? If you take it to the Chef, you'll get a certain item based on the number on the back. However, you wont know what number it is until you take it to him."
NiceIce befriended Adrina! [+5 Charisma] [1/2]

@uraccountcrashed : Ura grabbed the Met by its feet and started vigorously shaking the thing, its helmet and a few bolts falling off [-25 Health, -15 Defense]. Lonnie was running around Ura and the poor Met, cheering Ura on while eating any spare bolts he found on the ground [+2 Health] "aaaAAAaaAa please don't hurt me! I'm only doing my job..." the Met admitted, uselessly kicking at Ura "I was hired by Guts Man to do this. I get paid 23.4 Zenny per paycheck! But if I'm able to steal the Luxurious Tea from this guy, I get a 50% raise!" the Met pointed at Melancholy Cheetah, who was cowering in the corner of the balcony

Sea Lynx's fur shocked Beta on contact! [-8 Health]
What will you do next?@NiceIce : NiceIce headed up to Floor 5 to knock on the door to Adrian's room. After no one coming, NiceIce simply opened up the door. He couldn't see Adrian at all, mainly because of the lack of light, and what seemed to be cardboard pizza boxes lying around everywhere. However, a faint light could be seen, and NiceIce eventually saw that what was emanating was a large, purple jellyfish monster. The head of it having big, bug-like eyes and even having a small pair of wings.

@uraccountcrashed : Ura picks up the Met Helmet [+Armor Piece] and asks about the Luxurious Tea. "Well, only this guy can make it, but he wont give me the recipe for it!" The helmetless Met started jumping about wildly, trying to kick at the Melancholy Cheetah. "C-could you escort this thing out of my house? I'll give you a cup of the tea if you do," Melancholy asked, hiding from the enraged Met.

Gosh, I really don't want to triple post on my own thread, but its a pretty important thing that'll last a few weeks, so I'd think you would like to know about it.SEASONAL UPDATE: The Valentine's Season has officially begun, and will go on from February 10th to March 3rd
Things to expect in this Season: -Candy: Sweet Tarts (cheap, low healing item), Sweet Hearts (cheap, mid-healing item), and Sweet Arts (Luxury Food) will be available from merchants/Chef! Not only that, but all of these items will have an additional 20% discount applied to them!
--Sweet Arts: Sweet Arts are luxurious foods obtained from the chef by giving him a Green Paintbrush, these event foods will not only greatly raise Health (and only Health), but will increase the Candy food multiplier by 0.1! (Note: A lot of players have Candy Multipliers less than 1.0, meaning they'll get less healing from candies. Using these will balance out your player's pallete)
---Swooning Artists: Swooning Artists are minibosses that will drop a Green Paintbrush They can be found in: Drill Room (floor 1) (1x) Garden (2x) Chef's Room (2x) Floor 4 (4x) Forest (1x) Chef's Kitchen (2x) Diamond Studded Space Yacht (4x)
Electric-colored areas are Dungeons
-Status Ailments: Some new event enemies may inflict status effects on the player, including:
Lovestruck: LoveStruck -This ailment lasts 9 turns. The player is unable to act within these 9 turns (enemies will attack 9 times in one turn. Enemies that can cause this will generally have a low attack)
Heart Break: HeartBreak -This lasts for the entire battle. The player's attack and defense are both reduced by 25% (rounded up). If a player is Lovestruck and gets Heart Broken, then they'll lose their Lovestruck status.
-Crafting Book: The librarian of the Drill Room Library will be selling a Valentine's Season crafting book for 200 Zenny until March 5th (will have 20% additional discount until March 3rd). This book includes premium Healing items such as:
Cinnamon Roll: 30 Bread Units 20 Cream Cheese Units 10 Cinnamon Units 4 oz Sugar 2 oz Milk
This will be very similar to making equipment, and the player will encounter enemies that'll drop these materials during their quest as well too.
-EXP Bonus: Any Valentine's Enemy will give a 1.3 Exp Boost and normal enemies will give a mere 1.1 Exp Boost
-Season Badge and Carnations: Every enemy will drop 1-4 Carnations and some players may even find some in locations around the Mansion. Every player that brings Winston (A merchant on Floor 4) a Boquet of 50 Carnations and 30 Sweet Tarts will gain a Valentine Badge (All candies +30% discount. Candy multiplier +0.2) and a Heartslicing Sword, a weapon that has a 20% to give the enemy the Heart Break status.
Anyway, I hope you have fun with this event! Remember: this ends at March 3rd
