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!

People have been very generous with curses, this week. Particularly applying multiple curses at once.
resumed: (curious ♕ what a dumb point)

It doesn't help that people aren't talking to each other and are probably overlapping, too. So that's fun and annoying.

Indeed.

...Several of the curses as we know of are not accounted for on this list, as well, though that's part and parcel from what we've seen so far. Unless 'Spirit of Music' turns one into a hamster.

Is that what you were? [ amused. ] At least that one didn't last too long on you. Small blessings? But yeah I've noticed that, too.

Or a squirrel, or whatever it was. Some sort of rodent.

[ gazes ] It had odd aftereffects, as well, that lasted for an extra day on top of that.
resumed: (hesitate ♕ I'm not sure what you mean)

[ a slow blink. ]

What kind of weird aftereffects?
inquired: (148)

[personal profile] inquired 2023-11-04 05:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Rodentlike ones. I managed to suppress it for the most part.

[ but sometimes you end up eating like this for like a day on top of everything else ]
resumed: (smile ♕ turn the tides)

[ oh my god. ]

Ah. Well, uh. Congratulations on being fully human again, I suppose.

Thank you. [ this is so dry. ]
