WEEK 1 TRIAL

[probe]

POPULATION: 33

Rise and shine, little sinners. Did you rest well? Hope you weren't too perturbed by the events of the day before. Things seem to be perfectly normal throughout your morning, but at 12pm, everyone will receive a mass text message to their phone.

good evening, good morning and hello! please come join us in the conference room!

Whether you agree or disagree, soon you will find yourself physically moving toward the conference room on the bottom floor, filing into the room and taking a seat in one of the vacant chairs. Two metal boxes sit at the end of each table along with a collection of pens and colored notecards. At the head of the room, Lust, Pride, Envy and Gluttony patiently wait as the TV above them displays a message.

Victims: Kaz Kaan, Grell Sutcliff

Once the last participant enters the room, the door will swing closed behind them and lock them inside.

For a moment, everything looks completely normal, until you notice Envy slumped face-down on the table, bleeding out from a stab wound in the front. Lust is busy putting a pink fluffy towel under their head, Pride is sitting slouched in a chair twirling a knife, and in that moment Gluttony claps their hands together to get everyone's attention.

"If you would please get started. You all have nine fleeting hours to find out what happened, and place your votes."

Hello, and welcome to your second trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about the events of the day before! While mini-investigations were held yesterday, today is the day characters will have time to examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations.

There will be a mod-tag break between 4pm EST/1pm PST to 5pm EST/2pm PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

Finally, while voting is not mandatory, we do have a voting page should characters wish to vote! Please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes (9pm EST/6pm PST) if you wish to vote.

Good luck, and have fun!

...you haven't spoken to them much, have you.

[niceguyferatu]

Not Wrath, at least.

[shiftingwinds]

[smiling pleasantly: ]

Then, might I suggest not making assumptions about people you admit you don't know well?

[niceguyferatu]

And they don't know me well either, but they still saw fit to curse me immediately. Forgive me if I'm not feeling friendly after that.

[shiftingwinds]

You can be unfriendly without implying that they would murder one of us without reason, you know.

[niceguyferatu]

And they can be unfriendly too, without acting so rashly and violently as to give the impression that they'd commit baseless murder!

[ HE DOESN'T SEE HOW JUST MENTIONING THE MERE IDEA OF IT MAKES HIM THE BAD GUY HERE ]

[shiftingwinds]

[WRATH ISN'T EVEN HERE TO DEFEND THEMSELVES, THAT'S HOW]

Unfriendly does not automatically mean murder!

[niceguyferatu]

I didn't even say they did, I just posed it as a possibility!

[shiftingwinds]

Posing it as a possibility seems senseless when they're not even here, nor are they one of the people... "participating".

[niceguyferatu]

[ ...okay, this much he can acknowledge and concede. ]

...Fair enough. I retract my earlier statement.

[shiftingwinds]

Thank you.
