What? A free-for-all wherein some of the characters flat-out can't die or are very near immortal? That's not going to work.
This. The fun of Danganronpa came from the fact that nobody could escape and everyone was a potential suspect. When you almost literally have a Danganronpa character as one of the main cast, it falls flat on its feet.

What that murder mystery game you tried to run? Okay, then that's not going to work with the rampant magic use. Assuming it doesn't turn into a free-for-all to begin with, Knox's Ten Commandments basically get ruined immediately with magic being used for murder and detective work. None of the PCs have a means to destroy souls, and at least two of them have raw concepts instead of normal souls.

Killing people, I find, is somewhat distasteful in terms of roleplay value.

Oh yeah, and isn't James' ability, resurrection?

This is going to go very poorly as a deathmatch.

James: Zombie who can resurrect.
Hana: Both immortal and knows the plots of every detective game out there
Aine: Dullahan
Esi: Literally a sword
Lidia: Can copy all of the above

Need I go on with why turning this into Danganronpa would go wrong? :P

I was assuming from the start with the concept that many of us would be extremely weakened and for immortals or concepts there would be a way to destroy them though it would Not be immediately obvious.

It can work if done fittingly and everyone is aware that there character could die.
James: Zombie who can resurrect.

Haha yeah  it would probably end rather quickly with us murdering the mastermind violently.

Yeah, James can revive, it just takes a while, depending on the state of his skeleton. If his skeleton is fragmented pretty heavily, he can be considered out of the count for a considerable amount of time. His skeleton also has to be able to get back to itself, so if it is totally obstructed, total resurrection is impossible without the rest of his skeleton doing something about it.

Also, ghosts exist. One PC gets murdered, comes back as one of those vengeful ghosts, and then prosecutes their murderer to oblivion.

That's not aines job he escorts much newer ghosts clearly plus I don't think aine knows about the ghosts there yet.

I don't think he'd be permitted to do anything about it even if he did. Seems very unlikely that any GM would let a PC sterilize an entire region like that.
