What does 私様 means?


I see that apparently this word is used by a character in a videogame called
danganropa. It's a word like boku, atashi or something like that? Or it's
something different? It's used to call yourself superior or something like
that maybe? Maybe it's her nickname?




It's a sort of 役割語{やくわりご}, though I don't any other character in fiction that
uses it. 私様{わたくしさま} makes her 'regal' personality sound both queenly and
extremely arrogant, which is the exact vibe she is going for. Interestingly,
in the first game she pairs it with more modern 'regal, haughty woman' speech,
but in the second it's an older style. For example, in the first she would
probably phrase 'I have been waiting for you!' as 私様は待っていたわよ while using that
personality, but in the second she'd phrase it as 私様は待っておったぞ.
