Jondesu he/him Posted December 10, 2016 Posted December 10, 2016 I'll go for both AV and Arin. BTW, someone (I think in the latest MR game, not here) started calling me Jond, which is freaky. Jon or Jondesu, but Jond is just weird.

He also was against lynching a while ago, and I have other reasons for distrusting him that I can't share with the thread right now. If anyone has a Lookout, Investigator, or Sheriff-type role, can they please check him? EDIT: I MEAN ARINIAN NOT AV!!! Yeah I'm was against lynch. But I wanted only to save more villagers for first 2-3 days.(my thoughts was like that find 2 elims in 35 players It's really hard and better save lives for first days till number of elims will be increased and there gonna be higher chance to find them, also I thought that more villagers=more people explore=more useful items. Yeah you can say that exploring benefits elims more then us but I thought and still think that there should be some balance(limit for elims for 1 night) or game just gonna mess up. 10 hours ago, Jondesu said: I'll go for both AV and Arin.

Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted December 10, 2016 Posted December 10, 2016 Hey @little wilson mind giving us the name of that other person? Cos since dani is an explorer, for all we know that other person could have tried to kill you. He\she might be the first and only elim we need to kill Unless you TRULY trust he\she
little wilson she/her Posted December 10, 2016 Posted December 10, 2016 I do trust that person, and there are at least three others who know their identity.

Wyrmhero he/him Posted December 10, 2016 Author Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) Day 6: The Portrait of Lord Heron "Now who is this?" Bugsy asked, as he put both hands on either side of the portrait and gingerly pulled it down from the wall to have a closer look. "Lord Heron the Fourth," he read. "Well that's helpful, isn't it? Any more specific information for those of us who haven't followed every single damned thing they've done?" He turned the painting around and quickly examined the back. He smiled a little to himself as he noted the signature on the bottom right corner. Suddenly, he no longer cared for the history of the painting, and was now more concerned with how much Breath he could potentially purchase from it. Or anything else, even. He wasn't picky what he spent the money on. He turned around and examined the rest of the room. Honestly, it was a little creepy, this room. Thirteen eyes stared down from him from the walls (and he really didn't want to know what left that vicious scar on Lord Heron the Second), and he would swear blind that they followed him round the room. He replaced the portrait on the wall gingerly, careful not to damage his ticket to a fabulous lifestyle. He made a mental note that it was one he would definitely come back for, and went onto the next one along the walls. He took this one down from the walls, careful not to scratch the gold (probably gold leaf, he noted with some disappointment) frame, and turned it around as well. His eyes scanned it for a signature, but as his eyes flicked up to the nails that the portrait hanged (hung, he reminded himself. Pictures are hung. Yiferian was hanged) from, he thought he saw two pinpricks of light shining through. He put the painting down carefully and crept up to it. He brushed his finger over where he thought the light was coming from, and felt a pair of holes in the wall. He put his eye on the hole, closing his other in concentration to try and see through. There was red. Some pink. A body, he realised, in the walls. The clothing put him in mind of Quintus. "Blast," he muttered, looking around for some kind of weapon to try and destroy the wall. Finding nothing in the portrait room for this, he left to find the others and to procure some kind of heavy blunt instrument to get through. When the other explorers arrived, they attacked the wall with whatever they could find. The wall crumbled almost instantly, as though it was made of thin clay rather than brick. But behind it, they found no body. Just a bloodstain on the floor, through which something had been dragged through. They followed the trail of blood through the secret passage within the walls, until it suddenly stopped, as though a line had been drawn after which there were no stains. Quintus had vanished.

Though he hadn't found any works attributed to any of the Five Scholars, he'd certainly found some works that predated the Many War, containing some interesting insights into the nature of BioChromancy. He'd made some notes, but if he survived this experience, he most definitely had to find some way to own this house, just so he could have unlimited access to this library.

Wyrmhero he/him Posted December 10, 2016 Author Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) Apologies, I put the wrong person's death in the writeup. It was Quintus (Jondesu) who was killed, not Juq. All other details are correct. Edit: To clarify, none of Juq's information was posted previously. I simply wrote the wrong name once, and then kept referring to that player later on. Edited December 10, 2016 by Wyrmhero
little wilson she/her Posted December 10, 2016 Posted December 10, 2016 Khaos hid in a room. She'd seen him. She'd seen the Professor sneak up to Quintus and kill him. And then, in her shock at watching a man be murdered right in front of her eyes, she missed Professor Hae hide the body away. What had he done with it? What had he done with all the bodies? And how long had he been going around murdering people? She'd known there was something off about the man. He'd probably been the reason she'd been attacked the night before. The only question was if he'd actually been the one to do the attacking. Not the Khaos cared about that. She was a little more preoccupied with the fact that she was shaking. Literally quivering in her boots. She lifted her hand in front of her eyes, and it shook uncontrollably. She took a breath. People had been dying, this wasn't like it was anything new. She just hadn't expected to see it. Breathe. When she finally got herself under control, she went to find the other explorers. The Professor couldn't be allowed to live through the day. 5
JUQ he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 (edited) Hess noticed Khaos going off about how the Professor was guilty. He saw no reason not to agree with her, so went along with it. Approaching Hae, he said, "You're a worm, and I know it! Even if you haven't killed anybody, I wouldn't mind seeing you dead, simply because I don't like you." When he thought about it, he didn't really like anybody, now that Quintus and Isaac were gone. He felt a certain...affinity toward Khaos, simply because she seemed to enjoy doing things similar to what he did. @Haelbarde Edited December 11, 2016 by JUQ 2

Hooray!
Haelbarde he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 (edited) Albert almost had a heart attack when Hess came up behind him quickly and begin loudly badmouthing him. "Khaos saw me do what!?" He was incredulous. "How could she think such a thing!? I spent quite some time deliberating whether to seek out more of the House's secrets or to use my ancient healing fabrial to help heal her from her recent attack, and prevent further! What sort of repayment is this for causing the fabrial to break!?" *blinks*. Umm. Okay. I can't claim to have seen that one coming... You sure you're not the Spanish Inquisition, Wilson? Well, I guess I'll start by answering your questions? 6 hours ago, little wilson said: What had he done with it? What had he done with all the bodies? And how long had he been going around murdering people? She'd known there was something off about the man. He'd probably been the reason she'd been attacked the night before. The only question was if he'd actually been the one to do the attacking. Nothing. Nothing... No time at all? And how about no? I assume you're claiming to have ‘scanned’ me last night? While I’m not who I’d have expected to be your first scan this game, I guess it could make some sort of sense - your connections with Seonid, El and Aonar are public knowledge, meaning maybe I’d be less likely to get random eliminator killed? But that doesn’t really help explain why you’d be trying to frame me? Unless this is the most elaborate poke vote that I’ve seen in a SE game... Edit: The thief strikes again! He took my lerasium-brass alloy... Edited December 11, 2016 by Haelbarde 3
JUQ he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Hess stared at the man muttering about 'fabrials' and 'lerasium'. Here was a madman disguised as a professor. Khaos was more intelligent than he. He backed away slowly, being careful not to alarm him. 1
little wilson she/her Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Frame him? Is he serious? Khaos had better things to do than frame people. She knew what she'd seen with her Tin (detect the action of target player), and that had been Professor Hae killing someone (namely Quintus, since Quintus was the only person to...you know....be attacked). Not that she'd really expected to see him kill someone. Sure, she'd thought he was a Traitor--his comments pushing people to be more suspicious and wary of her mindgaming were definitely something that seemed like he had an ulterior motive--but he had 5 other Traitors he was working with. What were the odds that he would actually be the one killing? Still, she'd decided to trail him, with Tin flared all night last night. And that was what she'd seen. The Professor could try to cast doubt on it, making her question her own eyes, but she wasn't that crazy. He'd killed Quintus. And he'd been caught doing it. There was no other explanation. And really, wasn't the Professor one of the last people to cause the death of poor Nightspud a few days ago? He'd been acting suspicious for days. It was really only a matter of time before someone called him out on it. 5
Haelbarde he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Ignore the fact that Albert has become psychic for the moment, and is currently communicating telepathically with Khaos, or some such thing... Maybe Khaos is psychic? Albert was deadly serious. He was being falsely accused by someone he respected. He thought maybe it had been a trick, a clever ploy to make him trip up if he was one of the monsters killing people. But Khaos wasn't letting up!? He figured maybe she had misunderstood his words the other day. People had had questions about her, and he wanted to offer a balanced opinion on the matter. For some reason, he found himself wanting others to respect her. It was an odd feeling. He acknowledge there was a hidden deviousness to Khaos that shouldn't be ignored, but he'd let everyone know that she had his support in his claims. Although that might be changing... He did think that maybe he could have vocalized those sentiments clearer and more concise though. He blamed having his nose in a book at the time. He wracked his brains for anything else that she could be concerned about. He guessed his decisions earlier that lead to the death of Nightspud could maybe be worrying her. But then he expected that to be the case when he voted, honestly being slightly surprised that it took this long for anyone to bring it up, but he wouldn't have changed anything. Doing the right thing in not letting a new player die for an innocent mistake was worth all the suspicion in the world. If that single action ended up being the sole reason for his demise, he would die have no regrets. There had been no reports of evil omens being found in the last few days, so it seemed unlikely Khaos had become a monster. He wondered instead if the monsters had decided to trick Khaos. He had found a Medical Fabrial, similar to one Yiferen was found with. And a bracer that seemed to have properties described as 'feruchemical' by his books had been left behind when Quintus' corpse had been stolen. There were some decidedly odd things in this house. He wondered if there were any devices that could confuse a tineye. His research implied that something like that could in theory be achieved through one or two feruchemical metals, and he wondered what other secrets the House held. 4
Aonar he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Aon paced the halls of the House, fuming. The pen Khaos had given her was... frustrating. It spoke the House's Will for certain; it had lead her to the book, after all. But it seemed almost as if the House was... teasing her. Leading her on. Nothing else she had found had been of any real consequence. Sudden raised voices broke her from her reverie. Stilling, Aon's eyes narrowed as she listened. The stuffy Professor had killed Quintus? A small voice in the back of her mind wondered if Khaos had confided the target of her stalking in anyone but herself, but it was quickly drowned out by more important questions. Albert had been chosen by the House instead of her? That wouldn't do. A wide smile slowly broke across her face. But of course. It's time to make the House listen to me, instead. Turning towards the source of the sound, Aon practically pranced into the room where the other Explorers were discussing. "Now," she said, singsong, "our dear Professor has been a very naughty boy, hasn't he? And this talk of feru-whatsit that no one can confirm? While refusing to cast suspicion on Khaos, who is, by rights, quite suspicious? That's downright shifty, that is." Apparently Aon is psychic too, as well as crazy. It's the only way I could work the questions I wanted to ask into RP though. 3
JUQ he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Hess decided there was no point in attempting to make sense of the situation. However, the Professor still seemed guilty to him, and still going on about 'fabrials'. Hess decided there was only one thing for it, so he built a straw doll and Breathed. "Annoy Aon." This would at least give him a bit of entertainment. 2
Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Billy played with his guns and didn't give half a mind to what the storm was going on 2
Haelbarde he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 (edited) Hearing voices in his head made him wonder if he was crazy. The only thing that had suggested he wasn't entirely going mad was the voices were of the others in the house, and he'd heard Khaos say stuff before Hess came in and told him exactly the same thing. Even still, he'd found the need to go for a walk to clear his head, and find out what was going on. Turned out, Khaos and Aon had also experienced the same phenomena. He hoped that this effect would prove beneficial, rather than not. Okay, shifting back to out of character to return some clarity to the discussion. @Aonar Faileas I'd rather consider the possibility of something having messed with Wilson's scan, assuming she did indeed scan me, whatever the probability of that is, first, in case this can be resolved peacefully. We're starting to see more and more different types of items appear - Jondesu had feruchemical bracers, Daniyah had a multiuse Medical Fabrial (mine had the 'Ancient' quality, which meant it unfortunately only had one use). I assume that feruchemical items would convey specific abilities, not that Jondesu's gives any indication of what it may have been. @little wilson I assume you've had the opportunity to gather information more than most. Have you had any indication of how any feruchemical abilities work? The other thing I could see as messing with a scan would be an illusion based fabrial. And yeah, Aonar, I'm willing to cast suspicion on Wilson. Last cycle I had no reason to. I have concerns I can bring up, but I planned on waiting for Wilson's response first. Edit: Vote Tally Haelbarde(3): Wilson, JUQ, Aonar In case anyone else was keeping count... Edited December 11, 2016 by Haelbarde
Darkness Ascendant he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Billy never understood these games nobles played. The lies and such Why could they all just be friends? Besides khaos could be lying for all they knew. He had seen the craft nature of that person, as well as her ancient wisdom. For all we knew she could be toying with us all
Unodus he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 (edited) Exion stares at the professor as Khaos makes her claims, looking torn. He puts a hand to the shortsword to his side, and glances toward Khaos, "You were wrong once. If you are wrong again, you and I are going to have problems." He says and steps back, refusing to take part in the exchange. As Exion pulls his hat low, his eyes search for some sort sign in Alberts face to prove the Professors innocence, "I have been made the fool before. No more. Men should be what they seem- or those that be not, would they might seem none... Could I save you, I would- but I cannot, so I won't. If I be blind then better that I do not move forward at all lest I be led astray. But you had my trust and so I shall honor it." Edited December 11, 2016 by Unodus 1
Ecthelion III he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 (edited) Has Khaos gone crazy? I'm somewhat inclined to believe her, since if she's lying about this, we'd lynch her, but who knows with her? Edit: Great write-up, Wyrm. I always love reading your writing. Edited December 11, 2016 by Ookthelion III 1
Araris Valerian he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Nice write-up Wyrm! I'm a little too busy to RP right now, but I'm going to trust Wilson on this one. Haelbarde. As far as my other thoughts on players, I'm a little suspicious of Ecthelion, but I would have to go back through the thread to remember the specifics of that.
Seonid he/him Posted December 11, 2016 Posted December 11, 2016 Too busy to RP right now, but Wilson told me she had Tin last night, and was planning on scanning Haelbarde. This doesn't make her an automatic truth-teller, she could still be carrying on an elaborate charade, but I'm inclined to follow up on such a definitive claim as this. If Wilson is wrong, we lynch her next day cycle. Haelbarde
