## Rules

* Rule 1: A student can leave Mono-Tower at any time via the door in the assembly hall. Other than this, leaving is strictly prohibited!
* Rule 2: Nighttime begins at 10:00pm, and ends at 7:00am. Certain restrictions apply during this period, which Monokuma will gladly explain for you!
* Rule 3: Sleeping outside of your room is unsightly! Doing so will be accordingly punished.
* Rule 4: Mono-Tower's furnishings are very important! The damage of cameras, loudspeakers, monitors and other such devices, whether intentional or not, is strictly prohibited.
* Rule 5: Principal Monokuma is the sort of bear who likes to keep the peace, and as such, any violence committed against him will result in the immediate punishment of the offender.
* Rule 6: Anyone who kills a fellow student will be considered "blackened". If they escape their guilt, they will be allowed to leave Mono-Tower.
* Rule 7: Monokuma can add new rules and update old ones at any time, so as to further benefit the lives of the students.

When the masked Ultimate Despair attempted to kill one of the participants, Monokuma added a new Rule 7.

* Rule 7: Any individuals working for Monokuma are forbidden from deliberately taking the life of another student.

Another rule was added with the discovery of the second body.

* Rule 8: From this point on, a Body Discovery Announcement will only trigger when three people, excluding the blackened, have seen the body.

## Motives

* **Motive 1: Killing Among Loved Ones**
	+ Just as in the original Killing School Life, Monokuma presented each student with a video of a loved one in peril. This time, the videos were displayed in the form of a television in the student's dorm room, playing a 24-hour live feed. This motive spurred many into plotting their own murder attempts, even from Hanako Minami herself. However, the ultimate victim of the motive was Yuina Degawa, killed by Hideki Fujihara in a panic when he believed her to have killed someone else.
* **Motive 2: Monokuma Aptitude Test**
	+ Monokuma gave the students a personality test, and awarded each student two letter grades to represent how likely it was that they would be a victim or a blackened in the course of the killing game. These scores would be displayed on each student's ElectroID, but only their own- all others were up to the participants to disclose. This lead to Daisuke Akutagawa killing Kentaro Matsuoka, the participant with the highest blackened score, in hopes of keeping Tsutsuji Washio safe, as she was the participant with the worst victim score.
* **Motive 3: The Free Victim**
	+ Junpei Enoshima was restrained in the Library by Monokuma, and would be kept there until his death. Monokuma announced that, if Junpei died through natural causes rather than murder, the entire class would face a mass execution. Asuka Noguchi created a plot to poison Junpei's food but have someone else serve it to him, thus marking them as the blackened and sparing himself the blame. Though he intended for his target to be Shoko Hagino, through a series of coincidences, Tsutsuji Washio was the one to feed Junpei, and so became the blackened of the case.
