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!

When Jolyne checked the cart, there was blood in the middle and along the left side of it. So it's possible that he was bleeding out in it as he was moved, and then they got him there.

We could run a check for the footprints just to be sure. Sounds like we have quite a few we need to get rolling, anyways.

[resumed]

Yeah, that's about what Will and I saw, too. Maybe he was leaning against it then. Whoever it was might've thought it was too suspicious to leave Vane where Danny was if Vane was used to kill him.

I think a footprint check isn't a bad idea. Especially since there's two sets in the dorm itself. One larger than mine and one smaller.

[tongshi]

Maybe slumped a little to the left while he was propped up? So they moved him away from where Danny was once he'd killed him, and they'd probably gotten the drop on him, if this is what happened...

[ i'll take one for the team and run feetprints check. ]

I'll get everyone's attention, and we can just knock it out now.

[resumed]

He's not exactly a small guy. It'd be easy to overbalance him if you weren't careful. So that sounds like a good chain of events. Might not've been fully dead when he was transported either.

[ thank u snow. ]

Sounds like a good idea. Thanks, Hung.

[inquired]

[ nodding along to both of these ]

...Yes, I think that's not a bad idea. If there is a particular case we are struggling to make the connections to in regards to location, I may have something to help, as well.

[resumed]

[ a nod. ]

We're still a little early, but that's good to know. Just in case.
