Week 6: Trial

week 6:
 
trial
   15 DOODZ REMAIN   

Rise and shine. The sirens that filled the streets on Friday have died down, allowing you to spend the morning peacefully despite the news. It isn't until 11 AM that an alarm goes off on everyone's phone, citing a reminder for the trial taking place at the courthouse at noon. It turns off soon, but pops back up every ten minutes to ensure that you don't forget.

Shortly before 12 PM, all heroes feel a compulsion to head to the courthouse, where the staff direct you to one of the courtrooms reserved for the day's events. Attendance is mandatory, it seems, and once everyone has arrived, the doors close and lock behind them.

Yesterday's investigation was only the beginning. The real work begins now.
Welcome to your week one trial! Over the next nine hours, characters will have the chance to investigate, and theorize about the murders, as well as examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations with NPC permission. As you gather evidence and discuss, we encourage you to revisit the investigation post to refamiliarize yourselves with the events of Friday morning.

There will be a mod-tag break between 5 PM EST / 2 PM PST to 6 PM EST / 3 PM PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

To vote for a culprit, head over to the voting page! Voting is mandatory in this game, so please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes at 9 PM EST / 6 PM PST.

Good luck, heroes!

[ boy this is not inducing trauma flashbacks or anything

anyway okay. cool. that's fine. about how big is the stab wound? does it go all the way through as far as he can tell? is it just one quick stab wound vs like, several and or someone digging a knife in and wiggling it or something? ]

[ all good, thank you for your hard work ♥

ok neat. let's go ahead and remove his clothes. he mutters something under his breath that is either a joke or a prayer, it's hard to say, but he will carefully remove them, shaking them out for any traces of like. glitter or sand or anything weird. is the back of his shirt also bloody?

otherwise, are there any injuries or marks on his arms? what about his hands? any blood on those, or under the nails? damage to the nails? just doing a thorough check of those guns (metaphorical) ]

[ no one better to look at it than your fellow catholic. anyway. scars are fine!

what kind of bruises? are they big, small? he can compare them to his hand for size. are the two bruises connected, or far apart? do they look fresh?

how big are they in comparison to, say, the bump on his head? ]

[ where on the arm or is it just (murder doc voice) arm. and you said it's on the right? do either of these bruises match the top of the knife from the elevator? same with the head bump.

mmkay. other damage to the torso beyond the stab wounds? are there any defensive wounds or anything on the underside of his arm?

otherwise, moving on. is there anything else of note on the upper front half of his body? ]

[ moving on then!!! he'll check the little. his shirt has little dangly things on it that are longer? i'm traumatized from redacted. checking those over for any damage.

beyond that! sorry vane time to take off your pants. he'll check for blood, rips, etc first before looking for injuries, discoloration, breaks, bruises, etc on his thighs and anything under the armor. he'll also check the inside of the armor itself, like if something slipped between his leg and the plate.


and check the bottom of the boots for any dirt or scuffs or anything weird! ]

[ ok cool. he'll...

set the cards back except he'll take out the mika one. sorry vane you're dead there's a child who wants this he thinks you'd approve.

anyway!!! okay. neat. he'll take those items and turn them into evidence.

otherwise, if someone will help him he'll turn him over to check his back. any strange injuries - bruises, marks, anything that looks odd or out of place on his back? stabs? more spots? ]

[ yeah! throne would be so proud!!

this is a body comparison question ig but there was a picture of vane's body in evidence so.

is it okay to compare it to the body to see the blool just to see where it was/to make sure blood stains match the blool. also, can he tell what the object under his head was in the picture or do i have to take it to evidence.... ]

[ thank god. please i cant do that trauma again also

anyway. once he's finished a final lookover, he will pause briefly, and close vane's eyes if they aren't already closed. AND REDRESS HIM DON'T PUT ANY EVIL ON ME

he pauses at the body for a little longer than he might normally, holding very still, and bows his head, eyes briefly closing. ]


The truth will come to light. [ ... ] May your rest be temporary, little lamb. Let the Sacred Flame light your return.

[ ...

and then with that done, it's time to go do the report. goodbye ]
