The poison runs deep through the veins of Tongju. Over the last few years, the city's weathered crisis after crisis. From shelling out millions in order to attract corporate hero teams to the contemplation of putting the city under martial law, nothing has slowed the boom in the city's crime rate that's been ongoing since the 90s. It seems like every day there's some new corruption, a reporter killed, a candidate in the pocket of the jopok, a public project quietly abandoned because the funds vanished somewhere or other. Across the river, the richer parts of the city get richer and richer while everywhere else gets poorer. Less than a dying town, it's a town on life support, a city that's been kept alive for far longer than it should have as each and everyone one of its organs fails.But instead of becoming one of the carrion feeders, after a few solo costumed (mis)adventures, three vigilantes have been noticed and given an opportunity. The capes Chosinseong (Supernova), Daiamondieu, and Geobukseon (Turtle ship), invited to an abandoned ferry by an anonymous benefactor, are soon going to be thrust in the midst of a power struggle that even Tongju hasn't seen yet, but may yet leave their own mark on this poison city.Weaverdice Tongju is a tabletop roleplaying group based on the Worm, or Parahumans, universe, by John McCrae, a.k.a. Wildbow. It officially began in November 2018 and ended in January 2021. | |

Anyone Can Die | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: As a TTRPG, even the players are capable of dying at any point, let alone important NPCs (like former chessmaster Jiral). Many named characters end up dying in the final fight against Devourer, but no players, thankfully. | |

Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_15264ac9 | comment |
Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: Massive disasters lead to ongoing messes, having a bunch of traumatized superpowered people running around doesn't make for a stable world, being shot sucks whether you have powers or not, and having a normally disproportionate amount of LGBT characters makes sense when powers are based on trauma. | |

Adaptive Ability | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_20e7ed4f | comment |
Adaptive Ability: In a general sense, all capes have powers that respond in some way to their trigger event. Brutes result from physical damage, thinkers from mental strain, strangers from unwanted attention, and so on. Of course, the power usually 'solves the problem' at hand in a roundabout way at best, or the trigger would have solved the problem but now it's too late. Also describes some Trump and Changer powers. | |

Good Is Not Nice | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_21f3aa44 | comment |
Good Is Not Nice: Could apply to both DOWNFALL, who take out killers and protect their own but also perform tons of other crimes, or the city's heroes, who tend to be ineffective egotists, namely Yuseongu. (At the end of the story this seems to balance out more, with many Downfall mainstays becoming heroes and Yuseongu joining the Sambaempa.) | |

Post-Victory Collapse | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_25101d1a | comment |
Post-Victory Collapse: At pretty much every victory thus far, the characters are pretty maimed and have to spend a while recovering. Broken limbs, collapsed lungs, bullet wounds, and neurological backlash from Daia's power are common occurrences here. The player characters aren't actually hurt in the aftermath of the Devourer fight (everything he hits, he erases), but the psychological toll feels like this anyway. | |

Elemental Motifs | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_3d649526 | comment |
Elemental Motifs: In this game, arcs are themed after poison, which ties into the main plot-inciting NPC Neidan, the philosophy of Nan Jun-ho, and the deteriorating city itself. This echoes Worm (bug-themed arc titles) and Ward (light and darkness), as well as previous Weaverdice game Mizumiya (fire). | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: Surprisingly, at the end of it all, the fight against the Yuhaehanpa on the ferry, who only got the casualties they did because of a cheap preemptive strike. If one gang (two, at best) attempts to kill every other supervillain in town, it won't go well, who knew? (Makes sense, because the Fangshi didn't care about the Yuhaehanpa and mainly started the fight to provide cover for kidnapping Munsin.) | |

Lethal Harmless Powers: Ultraviolent could be described as this; her power doesn't actually make her more deadly, but it makes everyone around her think she is.

Swiss-Army Superpower: Pretty common in Tongju because it's a TTRPG and it's important that fights and other encounters are actually interesting to play. Daia's strings evolve over the course of the story into a trump power and he gains a precog aspect, for instance, while other player characters Amu and Nune have about four discrete powers to work with each, as part of a multitrigger. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The gang tries to enlist Munsin's help in the fight on the ferry, which leads to her getting kidnapped and kickstarting the CUI invasion. | |

Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_812ee32b | comment |
Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: Sure, people that can hit you really hard are scary, but the real things to fear in Tongju are the thinkers, masters, tinkers and trumps that make problems exponentially worse (such as Drone's massive group of mind-controlled capes, Waidan's ability to mass-produce short-lived cape henchmen, or Devourer's potentially exponential and infinite capturing of new powers). | |

Dysfunction Junction | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_820ac3c5 | comment |
Dysfunction Junction: Pretty much every cape is a traumatized mess, but DOWNFALL also has some interpersonal kinks to work out, most notably coming to a head when the Nune-Amugeosdo multitrigger enters the picture and memories are on the line. | |

Black-and-Gray Morality: Even the people trying to be as good as they can still execute their goals in terrible ways, and the heroes tend to be ineffective if not outright malicious. Also Morality Kitchen Sink, as there are good, evil, and mixed people on either side of the cape divide. | |

In the Blood | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_97aaa7f3 | comment |
In the Blood: A prominent theme running through Tongju, with many characters afraid that they'll turn out like their terrible parents. Especially notable with Neidan's family and Daia's, where the parents' powers are remixed in their children. However, it's a hopeful example, with Waidan dead and both Daia and Second Thought resolving to break away from them and focus on their own wants. | |

Pyrrhic Victory: DOWNFALL wins the fight on the ferry against the Yuhaehanpa, but at the cost of losing Munsin and kickstarting a CUI invasion, as well as Jiral's death. Later, they recover Munsin, distract Devourer, and kill Waidan in a targeted group effort by every gang in the city, but they lose a team member for the first time, Baesim. The Devourer fight also means massive casualties, including poor LCD. | |

Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_bce16d24 | comment |
Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Averted. Capes, including the players, commonly get shot in-universe, but there's a Wormverse justification for why caps overwhelmingly use their powers to the exclusion of other weapons. Mainly if you're willing to go no-holds-barred on your enemies, everyone else will go no-holds-barred on you. Capes like Cordyceps and Devourer also have brute powers that mean they have to be killed in specific ways. | |

Only a Flesh Wound | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_e663d3ef | comment |
Only a Flesh Wound: Generally only in the case of Brutes; gunshots and the like can be fatal to pretty much anyone, as Strychnine can attest. | |

Dwindling Party | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_ed68bcc9 | comment |
Dwindling Party: After Chosin left the team to return the de-Droned capes to their homes, and Geobu was sent to rehab after killing an unpowered gang member on accident, Daia is the only original DOWNFALL member left. (The overall membership has grown exponentially, though.) By the end of the game, due to Jogabi's plot to murder Taewo, Downfall has collapsed back to nearly its original membership, with Amugeosdo leading the splinter group House of Cards, Nun-esgasi joining the heroes, and Daia faking his own death. | |

One-Steve Limit: Very averted; it's Korea, so there are several unrelated Kims, Lees, and Parks. | |

Surprisingly Sudden Death | |

Surprisingly Sudden Death: No one gets much in the way of quips or last words at the Devourer fight; there's just not enough time to react. | |

Magic Cauldron | |
| Weaverdice Tongju (Roleplay) / int_f74022ea | comment |
Magic Cauldron: The alchemy-themed Waidan, who creates serums that temporarily give non-capes powers. As this is nominally technology-based, the 'magic cauldron' takes the form of massive mixing vats. | |

World of Action Girls: Like Worm before it, girls actually comprise a higher percentage of capes in-universe and they obviously kick lots of ass. | |

Gondor Calls for Aid: Downfall assembles an army of heroes, villains, and out-of-towners for the Devourer fight, which includes almost every cape NPC that is still alive at this point. | |
