yuggoth | ( TRIAL

At exactly 11:30 am, all residents who are still asleep will be jolted awake by a sharp, burning pain that spreads across their whole body. A simple look will reveal no visible injuries, oddly enough, and the pain will fade away as soon as they're properly awake. Those early birds who are already up and about will feel nothing — except maybe a strange, mysterious sense of relief as they go on about their business. Lucky them.

Moments later, an announcement will come through the static-filled PA system:

"This is Craftly speaking. My apologies for the rude awakening, children. As the Dining Hall is still under reparations — today's trial will take place by the pool. Please do try to be there before noon. My staff members have simply too many duties to tend to, to be escorting each and every one of you out of your quarters. Good day."

And true to his words, anyone who doesn't make their way to the Outdoor Dining Area before noon will be dragged kicking and screaming regardless of where they've sequestered themselves. Sucks to be you, huh? Upon arriving there, however, residents will be given the menu, one copy of the rulebook, one pencil, one notepad, and a cheque folder. Due the Kitchen and Dining Hall getting wrecked, lunch and dinner will mostly consist of grilled and barbecued menu items. Hamburgers, hotdogs, salads, and items that require little preparation — all the residents have to do is ask in order to receive. Similarly, all beverages will be retrieved from a hundred quart cooler that has been placed by the side of the pool.

Not as fancy as usual, but at least the pool is clean now. Some inflatable pool toys lazily swim in the water, along with pool noodles. A single towel that still has sludge on it floats among the accessories in the pool. Looks like no one bothered to really clean it up from Friday. Every now and then, the waters will vibrate to the sound of buzz saws and assorted power tools. Looks like the Disposal Room, Dining Hall and Kitchen are under reparations still.

A tent has been placed over the area to shield the residents from the sun, and to make up from the lack of transparencies everyone will receive a small booklet containing each resident's profile. They look a little bit like shitty PowerPoint presentation handouts, but maybe it's part of the charm. The profiles of the deceased are included, as always.

A second tent has been set up in the parking lot, complete with an air conditioning on the inside. Its use will become rapidly apparent once the victims corpses have been wheeled in. Anyone who wishes to step into this area will be asked to wash their hands, and will be given a pair of latex-free gloves and a hairnet by a staff members who is stationed nearby. Residents are required to dispose of both items before returning to their table; a trash bin is available outside of the tent for this purpose.

Evidence found during the investigation, on the other hand, will be displayed in a table by the pool shed. Any items found by the residents on Friday will be displayed here for further examination.

Finally — one of the grandfather clocks has been kidnapped from its respective floor to show the current hour. Please do remember you have until 9:00 PM to figure out whodunit and cast your vote. And if anyone tries to leave the area before the trial is over? They'll discover an invisible wall blocking their path.

( victims )

Characters will be given nine (9) hours to discuss everything related to the investigation to hopefully solve the mystery behind this week's murder. No one will be allowed to leave the Pool/Outdoor Dining Area (the pool shed will also be locked), and all characters must cast their vote before 9PM EST. You may do so on this week's voting page.

If you have any questions or doubts, shoot us a PM or a PP over at

yuggoth.

[YEAH HE WOULD FREAK OUT but actually he has a question]

How many bullets?

[he is trying to die, Girge. HELP HIM. HELP HIM LET EVERYONE DIE]

Limited. However, as per my role, I do have another gun, and that one happens to be infinite.

Shotguns are pretty nasty. [THEM SCATTER SHOTS] Do you think you could land headshots every time?

I'm confident in my accuracy, but I should note that "collateral damage" is guaranteed—or, as the Unclean has elaborated, another will always die at random alongside my chosen target, and that's outside of my control.

[...Hm.]

Awesome. So that one is out since it could very well take out those we want to keep alive. If we agree to this [please agree, please let Dirk die] then we can use the bullets we have for the fastest deaths and the knives for the rest.

Well, we do have plenty of knives and scalpels among us, including in the evidence.

[and a freaking chainsaw]

[Please let's not use the chainsaw.]

It's a matter of agreement and preference in cause of death.

[Also who thinks they can kill Mabel, Dipper, Violet, and Clem, even if they get their oks.]

[Girge doesn't want to think about killing Mabel. :(]

Well, I'll leave that to everyone else. [SINCE HE APPARENTLY HAS TO LIVE, DAMN IT.] What do we about Violet, considering her role?

Oh, you know.

[Even at this stage, he wasn't going to out her against her will.]

That would be up to Violet. I'd imagine either she kills herself, or her killer is someone willing to go out with a bang. Or, we pick her as the third for our final three.
