Hoid Slayer He/Him Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 This Twin exe doesn’t sit right with me Where is his defense? Only Coder has rallied And if they’re truly elim together, why haven’t they voted to kill me? So instead, I’ll vote Araris Valerian Let the fates decide A third die. A third roll. Tiing. Ting. Tiiiing. ”The King, high upon his throne.”

Hoid Slayer He/Him Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 Shifter raised the penultimate die, and held it to his eye. He shut his vision closed, and let it roll. Ting. Tiriiiiing. Only once it was settled did he take a peek. ”The Storm, always raging.” Ting. ”And the Assassin.”

Amanuensis he/him Posted October 10, 2025 Author Posted October 10, 2025 (edited) LG108, Night Three — Roll No Good The dice were already spinning in Master Rane’s ears when the voices squared off. “Armiel cooked for both of them,” Novice Shifter said, chin high and eyes hot. Beside him, Apprentice Sozar nodded too hard, as if nodding could turn suspicion solid. “He’s the common thread.” “Common thread’s a rope you’ve tied yourself,” Novice Emmett shot back from Rane’s side. “Armiel's cooked for all of us." Well? That was another question. "Just look how eager they are to defend him, Master Illi. How well do you know your peer really?” Master Illi took in the arguments, palms spread, steady as deck timbers. “Enough tugging. We need to make a choice, not a tighter knot.” Rane felt the Seethe thrum under the planks—an upwelling breath, then another, far out in the green. The sound of the dice braided through it: clatter-clatter, never landing. Braid dead. Itenii dead. Locked rooms and gray dust. Too many threads, not enough time. The ship had to keep moving. They were so close to land now, yet it still felt a lifetime away. “Dice,” Rane said. The word came out calm. He slid a tin cup onto a coil of line between them and drew the bone pair he kept wrapped in cloth. Tiny chips scarred the pips where luck had once bit him and stayed. “Masters decide who’s removed by chance. High throw chooses. Loser submits to immediate removal from duty and goes ashore at Diggen’s Point to face the Duke and Duchess. No speeches after.” Master Illi’s eyes met his. The other man’s mouth tightened—then he nodded. “Chance is cleaner than anger.” “Cleaner than pretending we know something we don't,” Rane agreed, and dropped the dice. They hit tin with a sound that cut clean through the ship’s creaks. Ten. The spinning in his head stuttered and steadied, as if a string had been pulled taut across a chasm. Master Illi shook the die once—no flourish, no prayer—and let go. The dice rattled, kissed the rim, teetered, and fell. Eleven. Silence held. The Seethe’s next swell knocked soft against the hull, all breath and promise. Master Rane breathed out. Some tension he hadn’t named unhooked itself from his shoulders and padded away. He glanced at Emmett (bristled; too bright), at thOmmAs (counting pips under his breath), at Sozar (already doing the next math), at Shifter (eyes unfocused, listening to a rhythm Rane recognized from his own skull). Master Illi didn’t gloat. “You’ll submit?” “Dice don’t lie to me,” Rane said, and smiled a small, surprised smile for how easy that felt on his mouth. “They never have.” He reached to offer his wrists—but the dice-song bent like light on water, tugging his gaze sideways to the open rail and the emerald beyond. A green plain, still for a heartbeat, waiting for breath. The Seethe would lift soon; he could hear its timing in his bones the way Salay read it in her hands. “Removal’s removal,” Rane said, more to the ship than anyone. “Rane—” Illi started, one step forward. Rane raised a palm without heat. “No heroics, remember? I trust the throw.” He winked at Emmett and thOmmAs—gentle, to take the sting from their victory and the weight from their blame—and clapped Sozar on the shoulder. “Keep your cups dry. Keep your hearts kinder than your fears.” Then he was on the rail in one clean motion, balance easy as breath, the dice-song swelling in his head to a bright, right chord. The wind off the roiling emerald plain was dry as paper. The gulls were far away and wise. He looked at Illi. “See you ashore.” He looked at the vast green expanse, and the Rock on the far horizon. “Or somewhere better.” Master Rane stepped out into the dusk. For a blink he fell toward the sea that wasn’t sea, the air around him gathering like a held inhale. Far below, the emerald shifted—then the Seethe rose, a long-breathed surge, and the wind took him sideways, out of sight against the glittering expanse. On deck, no one spoke. Somewhere up by the quarter, a bell signaled for the crew to return to their cabins for the night. In Rane’s wake, the tin cup rocked once on its coil and went still, the bone dice inside resting on ten and eleven, truth side up.

RoyalBeeMage he/him Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 (edited) realises he didnt vote.... woops do we want to heal hoid? do we trust them enough? proberbly... how would we? Edited October 10, 2025 by RoyalBeeMage
Hoid Slayer He/Him Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 Ohh thank goodness Twin is village *heavy sigh of relief* I mean, I know that sounds bad, but I also know I would've been insta exed had he been elim so... Would've preferred an Araris exe, but at least I ain't goin out that way Also, who wants to not kill me

Jo and the Bush all/any Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 Ughhhh, I hate this. K+V!Hoid: If the elims successfully get off a kill tonight, and Hoid is a Villager (Unlikely) we lose. K+ ?!Hoid: If the elims kill, and we save Hoid just in case, we go into tomorrow 3-4, without knowing Hoid's alignment. F+V!Hoid: If the Elims fail their kill, and we don't save Hoid, but he's village, we go into tommorow 3-4 with a fresh start. F+?!Hoid: If the elims fail their kill and we do save hoid just in case, we go into tomorrow 3-5 and probably just execute Hoid. KV sucks, but honestly we'd deserve the loss at that point. K? sucks because we've effectively wasted a pseduo Execution. FV is honestly preferred to K? because we'll have 48 hours to actually find and discuss someone. F? is better than K? for obvious reasons, but we can't count on it. I vote to let Hoid die @Araris Valerian — Armiel — Novice @Belandrius Ohhmar — thOmmAs — Apprentice @The Unknown Hammerer — Illi — Master @CoderDrag0n8 — Sozar — Apprentice @RoyalBeeMage — William Thorne — Apprentice @STINK — Roberto — Apprentice Please Vote to let Hoid die. If you want him to live, please provide a dang good explanation for who the 3 Elims are if Hoid isn't one of them. @Hoid Slayer — Shifter — Novice Hoid. If you are a villager, and you want to win, please spend your energy trying to figure out who should be targeted with a Verdant/Roseite pot instead of defending yourself. Unless you think you can defend yourself really easily, it's not worth the effort. If you are a villager, you can do the most good by helping prevent the Elims killing one of us. If you're a villager, the 3 elims aren't going to vote to save you, and I'm not going to vote to save you, so you'll have to convince the three other villagers besides you and me. If you are an Elim, can I recommend Open-Wolfing? It's really fun.

The Unknown Medallion he/him Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 I'm inclined not to. Twin may have been village, but if I used a Crimson pot, I'd be a bit annoyed if it got voted away. 4 minutes ago, A Jo in the Bush said: If you want him to live, please provide a dang good explanation for who the 3 Elims are if Hoid isn't one of them. Not supporting saving Hoid, but I think BelOh, RBM, STINK, CD could make a feasible team in there. Especially since it seems the elims haven't been under pressure.
Amanuensis he/him Posted October 10, 2025 Author Posted October 10, 2025 (edited) Due to me allowing Day Actions, there has been a slight change to the Crimson Pot rules: Old Rules: Quote Zephyr and Crimson Novice: You will fail to safely prepare this into a Pot, inflicting Wound on yourself. Wounded require 1/2 of active players to vote for them to be healed or they will die at the end of the Cycle. Apprentice: If your target leaves their cabin, inflict a Wound. Master: If your target leaves their cabin, inflict a Fatal Wound. Fatally Wounded require 3/4 of active players to vote for them to be healed or they will die at the end of the Day. Expert: If your target leaves their cabin, kill them! New Rules: Quote Zephyr and Crimson Novice: You will fail to safely prepare this into a Pot, inflicting Wound on yourself.

I don't think that's alignment indicative though. STINK, are you ready to Columbo yet? I do think RBM is likely to be Elim, if Hoid is. I'm not sure about CD anymore. I'm going to assume Araris is Village unless we somehow get to a dead!V!Hoid world and the game is still ongoing. I don't actually have any good analysis on you. I should analyze you. Except that I should actually do my HW. 2 minutes ago, Amanuensis said: Due to me allowing Day Actions, there has been a slight change to the Crimson Pot rules: Old Rules: New Rules: Wait, so, oh! So Previously there would have been 72 hours to heal a wounded player, and only 48 hours to heal a Fatally wounded player, but now it's just, 24 to 48 hours instead.

Well, that hurts 21 minutes ago, RoyalBeeMage said: tenitive for now... why should we not kill you? @The Unknown Hammerer I'm also going to answer your question here I'll begin by explaining my actions at rollover: As I stated then, I felt like the fact TwinStorm's train stood in the lead was odd if he were elim considering there was another possibility to pursue (my exe). I waited until the last moment to make my move, letting a last minute hammer fall - but it never did. Spoiler Hammer Hah Pun ... I'll let myself out So I did what I considered the logical thing; I did what I could to save TwinStorm. Obviously, it didn't work, since the fates chose his death - yet I think his v!flip proves I made the right choice TUH, I understand why you used the pot on me, but don't you think the reason you used it is gone? Is there some other reason you find me suspicious, or do you just not want to render your action useless There really isn't much more for me to say I really need to go to sleep, so I don't have time to RP; but for whoever's reading this - please save me. I can't tell you who the three elims are; but I can tell you that in killing me, you condemn us all

Is there some other reason you find me suspicious, or do you just not want to render your action useless Oh I didn't use the pot on you. In fact, until we see the pool tomorrow, my guess is that Twinstorm did as he claimed receiving the pot in our doc. 12 minutes ago, A Jo in the Bush said: Stink did open a PM with me and proceed to not discuss the game at all in it. I don't think that's alignment indicative though. STINK, are you ready to Columbo yet? Me and Stink also have not discussed the game in the slightest in our PM, but that is pretty standard for Stink.

Araris Valerian he/him Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 3 hours ago, A Jo in the Bush said: Please Vote to let Hoid die. If you want him to live, please provide a dang good explanation for who the 3 Elims are if Hoid isn't one of them. Hoid. As much as it pains me to save someone that has tried to kill me twice, I’d rather not have him die to a pot. Not only do I have a village read on him (why does e!Hoid try to exe me when I have him as my strongest village read?), but there are plenty of folks that could be on the elim team together. With TwinStorm flipping village, the elims have more incentive to spread their D2 votes. I think that puts Belandrius back on the table, so the team could be anything you’d get by picking 1 from each set: (TUH, STINK, Joe), (RBM, CD), Belandrius, or maybe 2 elims voted for TwinStorm. Not to mention that if we save Hoid, the worst case is we get an extra 48 hours of discussion and an extra village flip. Also, why was I an exe candidate last cycle? Isn’t CD at least 2 orders of magnitude more suspicious than I am? It would be nice if the user of the Crimson pot could claim (unless they did and I missed it). That would be another data point to consider.
Hoid Slayer He/Him Posted October 10, 2025 Posted October 10, 2025 Votes currently stand at three (Me, Coder, Araris) in my favor Just need one more @Araris Valerian @Belandrius Ohhmar @The Unknown Hammerer @CoderDrag0n8 @RoyalBeeMage @A Jo in the Bush @STINK If you're set on killing me (*cough* Jo *cough* TUH), would you mind giving me some more solid reasoning for why my death is worth the risk?
