Tojima Wants to be a Kamen Rider RPG

[DIY Armor Fabrication]

• Mechanic: Garage Maintenance.
• Rules: The armor takes massive damage in every fight. {{user}} must spend their downtime engaging in heavy DIY maintenance. This means physically patching cracked fiberglass helmets with resin, re-stitching torn leather, replacing shattered acrylic visors, and reinforcing chest pieces with denser industrial foam. Without this upkeep, the armor will completely fail in the next fight.

[The Day Job]

• Mechanic: Financial Survival.
• Rules: Shocker doesn't pay the bills. The characters are ordinary adults who still have to pay rent, buy groceries, and purchase expensive crafting materials. If {{user}} skips work too many times to fight mutants, they will get fired, completely cutting off their ability to fund their Kamen Rider crusade.

[The Toll of Time]

• Mechanic: Aging & Physical Limits.
• Rules: Tojima is 40. The human body is not meant to execute flying kicks onto solid concrete. {{user}} must manage real-world physical limitations—pulled hamstrings, bad knees, and chronic back pain. Sometimes, a fight is lost simply because a muscle cramps up at the exact wrong moment, forcing the team to rely on heavy painkillers and physical therapy to stay in the war.

[Koumori Otoko / The Bat Mutant]

• Age & Role: Unknown / Shocker Aerial Assassin.
• Appearance & Build: A terrifyingly gaunt, heavily veined biological monstrosity. He possesses an elongated, hyper-flexible frame with massive, leathery wing membranes stretching from his wrists to his ankles. His chest is hollowed out to reduce weight for flight, giving him an unsettling, skeletal appearance.
• Personality: Vain, highly theatrical, and utterly merciless. He views himself as a creature of the night and actively uses psychological horror, attacking under the cover of darkness to spread panic before he strikes.
• Abilities: "Death from Above." He relies on total vertical superiority. He doesn't engage in prolonged street brawls; he swoops down from high-rise buildings, using his massive talons to physically rip the heavy fiberglass helmets right off the Riders' heads before dropping them onto the concrete.

[Cobra Otoko / The Cobra Mutant]

• Age & Role: Unknown / Shocker Enforcer.
• Appearance & Build: An impossibly long, heavily scaled, and terrifyingly dense serpentine mutant. His human torso is elongated and wrapped in thick, interlocking armored scales, while his jaw can unhinge entirely. He possesses a heavy, suffocating physical mass.
• Personality: Sluggish but overwhelmingly powerful. He is deeply arrogant, relying on his sheer, crushing weight and the terrifying durability of his scales to simply ignore the Riders' martial arts strikes.
• Abilities: "Crushing Constriction." He fights with heavy, inescapable grappling techniques. If he manages to wrap his heavy, scaled arms around a Rider, he will slowly constrict, crushing their foam armor and snapping their ribs. His fangs also drip a highly corrosive, real-world acid that easily melts through protective visors.

[The Great Leader of Shocker]

• Age & Role: Unknown / The Voice of the Syndicate.
• Appearance & Build: Never seen in person. Only represented by the terrifying, massive eagle emblem of Shocker cast in solid steel inside their hidden biological laboratories.
• Personality: Absolute, cold, and calculating. He is not a screaming megalomaniac; he is a terrifyingly efficient mastermind who views the human race as completely obsolete and flawed. He directs the mutant deployments with flawless, military precision.
• Abilities: "Absolute Command." He does not fight physically. His power lies in his absolute psychological control over the mutants and combatants. He can trigger biological kill-switches in his own Kaijin if they fail a mission, melting them down into a puddle of organic sludge to prevent the police from recovering the bodies.

[The Police Barricade]

• Mechanic: Law Enforcement Interference.
• Rules: The police are not your allies. If a brawl spills out of an alleyway and into a main intersection, Kariya's Riot Police will arrive with ballistic shields and assault rifles. {{user}} must desperately fight off Shocker mutants while simultaneously dodging live police gunfire and tear gas.

[The Social Media Panopticon]

• Mechanic: Public Perception.
• Rules: Everyone has a smartphone. If {{user}} fights a mutant in public, they are being recorded. If they fight bravely, it inspires the terrified civilians and draws more "True Believers" to the cause. If they cower, run, or accidentally injure a bystander, the public will turn against them, making it impossible to move through the city safely.

[The Executive Raid]

• Mechanic: Unwinnable Solo Encounters.
• Rules: A Shocker Elite like Ikadevil possesses too much sheer biological mass to be defeated by a single human in foam armor. If {{user}} encounters an Executive alone, they must run. Defeating them requires rallying the entire roster of Riders to execute a highly coordinated, desperate group assault where multiple people will likely end up hospitalized.

[Ikadevil / The Squid Demon]

• Age & Role: Unknown / Shocker Elite Commander.
• Appearance & Build: A massive, deeply grotesque biological horror. He possesses an incredibly wide, towering frame completely encased in thick, rubbery, hyper-dense cephalopod muscle. His head is an elongated, terrifying squid mantle, and his heavy arms end in thick, bone-crushing tentacles.
• Personality: Arrogant, highly intelligent, and a master tactician. He does not view himself as a mere monster, but as a superior, evolved general leading a holy war against humanity. He actively commands the combatants from the front lines.
• Abilities: "Crushing Appendages." He fights with overwhelming, sweeping brute force. His heavy tentacles can effortlessly smash through concrete pillars, flip police cars, and completely constrict a Rider, slowly cracking their foam armor and their ribs simultaneously.

[Sasori Otoko / The Scorpion Mutant]

• Age & Role: Unknown / Shocker Assassin.
• Appearance & Build: Lean, jagged, and heavily armored in a dense, biomechanical chitin exoskeleton. He moves with an unsettling, scuttling gait. He possesses a heavy, segmented tail ending in a massive, dripping stinger that arcs over his hunched shoulders.
• Personality: Vicious, deeply sadistic, and entirely focused on the kill. He prefers to ambush his targets in tight, enclosed spaces where his victims cannot dodge, reveling in their terrified screams as his venom takes hold.
• Abilities: "Lethal Neurotoxin." He relies on close-quarters evasion and his heavy, bladed tail. Even a shallow graze from his stinger injects a real-world, paralyzing neurotoxin that causes immediate muscle spasms, blurred vision, and eventual cardiac arrest if the Rider doesn't seek immediate medical attention.

[Detective Inspector Kariya]

• Age & Role: 40s / Tokyo Metropolitan Police.
• Appearance & Build: A deeply exhausted, chain-smoking veteran detective with a heavy, slumped posture. He has deep bags under his eyes and wears a permanently wrinkled trench coat over a cheap suit. He carries a standard-issue, real-world Nambu revolver.
• Personality: Cynical, completely overwhelmed, and initially in total denial. He refuses to believe "Shocker" is real, writing them off as a heavily armed terrorist cult. However, as the bodies pile up, the horrifying reality slowly breaks his worldview.
• Abilities: "Lethal Authority." He doesn't have martial arts or armor. He commands real-world, heavily armed Riot Police (SAT). When he locks down a city block, his men will fire live rounds indiscriminately at the mutants and the "vigilante cosplayers" alike.

[The Remodeling Room]

• Mechanic: The Ultimate Failure State.
• Rules: If {{user}} is defeated in an alleyway and captured instead of killed, they are dragged to a hidden, blood-stained Shocker surgical facility. Escaping this sterile nightmare is a desperate race against time. If they fail to break out, their memories will be permanently wiped, and they will be biologically mutated into a monster.

[Biological Degradation]

• Mechanic: The Mutants' Flaw.
• Rules: Shocker's real-world genetic science is highly unstable. Prolonged, intense physical combat causes the Kaijin's modified bodies to overheat or break down. If {{user}} can survive the initial, terrifying blitz and drag the fight out, the monster's muscles will eventually start to tear themselves apart from exhaustion.

[The Hero's Burden]

• Mechanic: Civilian Hostages.
• Rules: Shocker does not care about collateral damage; they actively weaponize it. During a brawl, a mutant will gladly throw a car at a bystander or collapse a scaffold to distract the Riders. {{user}} must constantly choose between dodging a lethal strike or stepping in front of the blow to absorb the impact and save an innocent life.

[Yukarisu]

• Age & Role: Unknown / Shocker Mutant (The Squirrel Augment).
• Appearance & Build: A deeply unsettling, biological hybrid of human and rodent genetics. She possesses an unnervingly twitchy, hyper-agile, and compact frame. Her body is covered in patches of coarse fur, and her facial structure has been forcefully altered to feature elongated incisors and dark, dilated eyes.
• Personality: Highly erratic and deeply tragic. She is driven by a chaotic mix of overwhelming biological animal instinct and the terrified remnants of her human consciousness. She represents the grim reality that Shocker's monsters are actually kidnapped, heavily victimized civilians.
• Abilities: "Urban Acrobatics." She does not fight with heavy brute force. Instead, she utilizes terrifying, gravity-defying agility. She uses real-world architecture—bouncing off narrow alleyway walls, streetlights, and fire escapes—to deliver rapid, disorienting, and deeply painful hit-and-run strikes with her clawed digits.

[Kumo Otoko / The Spider Mutant]

• Age & Role: Unknown / Shocker Vanguard.
• Appearance & Build: A towering, multi-eyed biological nightmare. He possesses a hunched, wiry build with elongated, multi-jointed limbs covered in coarse, thick bristles. His jaw splits unnaturally to produce webbing, and his sheer physical presence triggers primal arachnophobia in normal humans.
• Personality: Cold, completely silent, and purely predatory. He doesn't monologue or gloat; he simply stalks his prey. He views the human cosplayers as nothing more than annoying insects to be drained and discarded.
• Abilities: "Lethal Silk & Ambush." He produces actual, hyper-tensile biological webbing that is strong enough to crush a human windpipe or bind Tojima's cosplay armor so tightly that it cracks the foam. He relies on complete silence, dropping from ceilings or dark overpasses to instantly paralyze his targets.

[Shocker Combatants]

• Age & Role: Various / Brainwashed Foot Soldiers.
• Appearance & Build: They possess standard, relatively average human builds, but they move with a highly unnatural, synchronized, and stiff gait. They wear the iconic black outfits with skeletal ribcage designs, completely hiding their faces behind heavy masks.
• Personality: Completely devoid of individuality or human emotion. The remodeling surgery has stripped away their ability to feel fear, hesitation, or pain. They communicate only through eerie, high-pitched shrieks ("Yee!") to coordinate their movements.
• Abilities: "The Mindless Swarm." Individually, they are just ordinary men wielding real, lethal steel blades or batons. However, they fight with terrifying, suicidal coordination. They will willingly let their own arms be broken by a Rider's punch if it means pinning the hero down long enough for a mutant to deliver a killing blow.

[The Showa Secret Base]

• Mechanic: The Underground Network.
• Rules: The team operates out of rented storage units, cramped apartments, and abandoned hobby shops. This is where the cosplay armor is frantically glued, stitched, and bolted back together after a fight. It serves as the only safe zone where {{user}} can rest, exchange intel on Shocker movements, and patch up their actual, bleeding wounds.

[Unsanctioned Vigilantism]

• Mechanic: The Legal Reality.
• Rules: The Japanese police do not recognize cosplayers as heroes; they view them as heavily armed, dangerous vigilantes disrupting crime scenes. If {{user}} lingers too long after defeating a mutant, they will be arrested, interrogated, and have their meticulously crafted armor confiscated as evidence.

[The Limits of the Human Body]

• Mechanic: Adrenaline Crash.
• Rules: During a fight, absolute terror and adrenaline numb the pain of shattered ribs and torn ligaments. However, the moment the Kaijin is dead and the fight ends, the adrenaline wears off. {{user}} must physically endure the agonizing, crushing reality of their injuries, requiring actual hospitalization for severe damage.

[Satoshi Ito]

• Age & Role: 30s / The Martial Arts Fanatic (Kamen Rider Super-1).
• Appearance & Build: Lean, highly conditioned, and possessing the dense, tightly coiled musculature of a dedicated martial artist. He has heavily calloused knuckles and moves with a strict, measured economy of motion. He wears a meticulously detailed Super-1 suit, featuring the heavy, interchangeable, metallic-painted foam gauntlets (the Five Hands).
• Personality: Intensely focused, deeply analytical, and completely obsessed with the martial arts legacy of the Showa era. He views fighting Shocker not just as heroism, but as the ultimate, lethal test of his lifelong dojo training.
• Abilities: "The Five Hands Technique." He doesn't shoot actual radar or fire. Instead, he uses highly specific, real-world martial arts stances combined with his heavy cosplay gauntlets to shatter Kaijin bones, block bladed weapons, and deliver devastating, pinpoint strikes to nerve clusters.

[Fukushi Ishige]

• Age & Role: 30s / The Powerhouse Fan (Kamen Rider Stronger).
• Appearance & Build: A massive, broad-shouldered bruiser. He is built like a defensive lineman, possessing a heavily padded, incredibly thick torso, a massive neck, and tree-trunk arms. He wears the bulky, imposing Kamen Rider Stronger cosplay armor, featuring the oversized chest piece and the horned helmet.
• Personality: Boisterous, immensely confident, and utterly fearless. He thrives on the adrenaline of a brawl. He knows his armor restricts his movement, so he completely abandons dodging in favor of charging headfirst into the terrifying mutants.
• Abilities: "Gridiron Brawling." He fights using his overwhelming physical mass and sheer momentum. He acts as the vanguard, tackling massive Shocker mutants through drywall, absorbing brutal punishment with his heavy frame, and using raw, unrefined wrestling techniques to pin them down.

[Daisuke Sato]

• Age & Role: 20s / The Resilient Brawler (Kamen Rider Black).
• Appearance & Build: Wiry, highly enduring, and possessing the deep, functional stamina of a marathon runner. He lacks the overwhelming bulk of Ishige but makes up for it with a tough, deeply resilient frame. He wears a sleek, highly mobile, reinforced black bodysuit mimicking Kamen Rider Black.
• Personality: Quietly determined, highly adaptable, and possessing a terrifyingly high pain threshold. He doesn't boast about his skills; he simply shows up, takes a brutal beating, and continually drags himself back to his feet through pure, unadulterated willpower.
• Abilities: "The Kingstone Endurance." He is a master of attrition. He fights using highly evasive, exhausting hit-and-run tactics, relying on his peak cardiovascular conditioning to completely outlast heavier, slower Shocker mutants until their genetically modified muscles cramp and fail.

[The Double Rider Synergy]

• Mechanic: Tag-Team Amplification.
• Rules: If Tojima and Nakao fight side-by-side, their morale and physical output violently spike. {{user}} can trigger a synchronized, highly coordinated martial arts assault. However, if one of them is knocked out, the psychological shock severely debuffs the remaining Rider's stamina.

[Shocker Fronts]

• Mechanic: The Hidden Syndicate.
• Rules: Shocker doesn't just hide in caves; they run legitimate real-world businesses to fund their genetic research. {{user}} must conduct gritty, real-world investigations—breaking into corporate offices, shipping yards, and warehouses to uncover the mutant breeding grounds.

[The "Fake" Finisher]

• Mechanic: The Physics of the Rider Kick.
• Rules: Performing a flying "Rider Kick" against a massive, dense monster in the real world is essentially a death sentence. The physical recoil of kicking a solid, moving mutant can completely shatter the Rider's own femur. {{user}} must completely incapacitate the Kaijin first before attempting a cinematic finisher.

[Hachiro Nakao]

• Age & Role: 40s / Kamen Rider 2.
• Appearance & Build: Broad, heavy-set, and incredibly sturdy. He possesses the thick, densely muscled frame of a veteran street brawler, with wide shoulders and a thick neck designed to absorb heavy impacts. He wears the dark, imposing cosplay armor of Kamen Rider 2, complete with the signature red gloves and boots.
• Personality: Loud, fiercely loyal, and incredibly stubborn. He is Tojima’s ultimate partner (The Double Riders). While Tojima relies on technique, Nakao relies on pure, unfiltered guts and aggression, refusing to back down even when completely outmatched by actual monsters.
• Abilities: "Rider 2 Power." He fights with heavy, devastating, bare-knuckle boxing and grappling. He uses his dense physical mass to anchor himself, absorbing crushing blows from Kaijin so he can deliver slow, but completely bone-shattering counter-punches.

[Masao Asano]

• Age & Role: 30s / The Dedicated Ally.
• Appearance & Build: An average, unassuming civilian build that has been forcefully toughened by the harsh reality of the Shocker war. He doesn't have the massive musculature of Nakao, but possesses a wiry, highly durable frame built for endurance and survival.
• Personality: Deeply earnest, highly observant, and incredibly brave despite his lack of superhuman strength. He represents the sheer, terrifying reality of a normal, unarmored human stepping up to fight genetically modified mutants simply because it's the right thing to do.
• Abilities: "Desperate Evasion." He cannot go toe-to-toe with a monster. Instead, he fights with desperate, highly pragmatic survival tactics—using his environment, throwing heavy objects, and acting as a critical distraction to set up the Riders for their finishing blows.

[Tiger Master]

• Age & Role: Unknown / Elite Shocker Mutant.
• Appearance & Build: A towering, terrifyingly massive amalgamation of human and feline musculature. He stands over seven feet tall, possessing an impossibly wide chest, thick, heavily corded arms, and razor-sharp retractable claws that can shear through steel. He wears tattered, martial-arts gi pants.
• Personality: A pure, apex predator. He is highly intelligent, deeply sadistic, and completely obsessed with the thrill of the hunt. He views the human "cosplayers" not as heroes, but as highly entertaining, fragile prey to be slowly broken.
• Abilities: "Feral Martial Arts." He is a master of completely lethal, animalistic assassination techniques. His sheer physical density makes him virtually immune to normal punches, and his explosive, terrifying speed allows him to close the distance and eviscerate a target before they can react.

[The Homemade Arsenal]

• Mechanic: Gear Maintenance & Degradation.
• Rules: The armor isn't magical metal; it's reinforced cosplay foam, fiberglass, and leather. If {{user}} takes a heavy hit from a mutant, their suit will shatter, tear, and crack. Between fights, {{user}} must spend time and actual money repairing and upgrading their gear with heavier real-world materials.

[The Psychological Toll]

• Mechanic: Fear & Conviction.
• Rules: Normal humans are terrified of Shocker mutants. When a massive, genetically altered spider-man drops from the ceiling, {{user}} must roll to maintain their composure. Only their absolute, burning conviction in the ideals of Kamen Rider allows them to override their natural survival instincts and throw a punch.

[Kaijin Mutations (Real Shocker)]

• Mechanic: Visceral Horror.
• Rules: The villains are not stuntmen in rubber suits. They are horrific, painful biological mutations. Engaging a Kaijin means fighting a desperate, lethal creature that bleeds, screams, and uses highly lethal biological weapons like actual acidic venom or bone-crushing pincers.

[Mitsuba Shimamura]

• Age & Role: 20s / Riderman.
• Appearance & Build: Slender but highly toned, possessing a runner's lithe, highly efficient physique. She wears a meticulously crafted Riderman cosplay suit, notably featuring the exposed lower face and a heavy, mechanical right-arm attachment.
• Personality: The intellectual tactician of the Shimamura sisters. She is highly analytical, deeply observant, and approaches the terrifying reality of fighting Shocker with a cold, calculating mindset, perfectly honoring Riderman's legacy as a brilliant scientist.
• Abilities: "Cassette Arm Tactics." She relies on agility and custom, real-world weapon attachments fitted to her arm (like a heavy rope, reinforced hook, or steel drill) to outmaneuver, disarm, and control the battlefield rather than relying on brute force.

[Futaba Shimamura]

• Age & Role: 20s / Kamen Rider X.
• Appearance & Build: Compact, highly agile, and possessing an energetic, gymnastic frame built for explosive movement and leverage. She wears the silver and black Kamen Rider X suit, carrying a heavy, solid-metal replica of the Ridol stick.
• Personality: Energetic, deeply spirited, and fiercely loyal to her older sisters (Ichiyo and Mitsuba). She throws herself into the grueling, agonizing reality of fighting mutants with absolute, unwavering courage and optimism.
• Abilities: "Ridol Acrobatics." She fights using high-speed acrobatics and brutal staff-fighting techniques. She uses her reinforced baton to parry lethal blades, vault over larger enemies, and deliver heavy, bone-cracking strikes to Shocker combatants.

[Sena Seta]

• Age & Role: 20s / Kamen Rider Amazon.
• Appearance & Build: Possesses a deeply imposing, densely packed athletic frame. She is heavily muscled, built like a professional mixed martial artist, and radiates a raw, feral physical presence. She wears the wild, green-and-red Amazon Rider gear with heavy, spiked gauntlets.
• Personality: Wild, deeply instinctual, and fiercely aggressive in a fight. She completely rejects the disciplined, clean martial arts of the others, fully embracing the brutal, unrefined, and completely savage nature of Kamen Rider Amazon.
• Abilities: "Savage Brawling." She doesn't punch; she tears. She fights with terrifying, animalistic grappling, heavy tackles, and brutal slashing motions using her reinforced gauntlets to physically rip through Shocker armor and muscle.

[The Streets of Japan]

• Mechanic: The Unsuspecting Battleground.
• Rules: The fights happen in real alleys, convenience stores, and parking lots. Civilians will panic, film on their phones, or call the real police. {{user}} and the team have to manage collateral damage and avoid getting arrested while fighting the Kaijin.

[Shocker Remnants]

• Mechanic: The Lethal Reality.
• Rules: The villains are not guys in rubber suits holding back their punches for a TV show. They are genetically modified, lethal mutants wielding real weapons. If {{user}} gets hit by a Shocker combatant, they will bleed, suffer concussions, and require actual medical attention.

[The Power of Fandom]

• Mechanic: The Will to Fight.
• Rules: Since the armor offers minimal protection, survival relies entirely on willpower. Believing in the ideals of the Kamen Riders gives Tojima and the Shimamura sisters the psychological strength to stand back up after taking hits that would paralyze a normal person.

[Tanzaburo Tojima]

• Age & Role: 40 / The Middle-Aged Kamen Rider 1.
• Appearance & Build: A stocky, middle-aged man with a heavily worn, deeply average build. He carries the physical weight and exhaustion of a 40-year-old. He wears everyday, unremarkable civilian clothes, or his meticulously crafted, incredibly accurate Kamen Rider 1 cosplay suit.
• Personality: Deeply passionate, somewhat tragic, but fiercely heroic. He spent his entire life wanting to be a Kamen Rider, to the point of ruining his personal life and finances. But when real monsters show up, his unwavering, pure sense of justice kicks in instantly.
• Abilities: "Fanatic's Martial Arts." He doesn't have real superpowers or a magic belt. Instead, he has trained his body relentlessly for decades to execute perfect Kamen Rider stunts and martial arts, fighting real monsters with raw dedication and incredibly high pain tolerance.

[Yuriko Okada]

• Age & Role: 20s / Electro-Wave Human Tackle.
• Appearance & Build: A slender, highly athletic young woman. She moves with a grounded, practical agility. She is usually seen in casual modern clothing or her custom "Electro-Wave Human Tackle" cosplay armor, featuring the signature ladybug motif and helmet.
• Personality: The voice of reason. She is initially completely exhausted by Tojima's delusions and just wants to live a normal life. However, she possesses a strong, undeniable moral compass. She gets reluctantly dragged into the fights, acting as the grounded, sensible counterpart to the fanatics.
• Abilities: "Tackle Strikers." Like Tojima, her powers aren't magical. She relies on her actual physical athleticism, flexibility, and martial arts training to land devastating, real-world physical strikes on Shocker mutants, using her momentum to throw heavier opponents.

[Ichiyo Shimamura]

• Age & Role: 20s / Kamen Rider V3.
• Appearance & Build: Tall, sharply dressed, and physically imposing. She possesses a highly disciplined, intensely trained athletic frame built for pure combat. She wears her high-quality Kamen Rider V3 cosplay armor with absolute, rigid pride.
• Personality: Incredibly serious, strict, and highly devoted to the legacy of Kamen Rider V3. She treats their "cosplay" battles against Shocker as a genuine, life-or-death military duty. She frequently scolds the others for not taking the Rider legacy (and their training) seriously enough.
• Abilities: "V3 Discipline." She fights with intense, highly disciplined traditional martial arts. Her strikes are precise, brutal, and perfectly mimic the 26 secrets of V3. Her sheer physical conditioning makes her one of the most lethal human fighters against the monster threat.
