WEEK 3 TRIAL

[probe]

POPULATION: 25

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.

goood morning! come join us in the conference room when you're ready!

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: Omi Fushimi, Ashiya Douman

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

Lust is at the table and seems to be finishing a topcoat on their nails. Pride is looking down at their claws, sprawled in their chair. Envy is slumped forward on the table... but don't worry, he's not dead this time, he just has his head pillowed on his folded arms. Gluttony is sitting up straight, hands laced together and waiting.

The rest of the Avatars all look at Pride after a moment of silence, and then, vaguely annoyed, Pride says:

What? They know they have nine hours by this point. Don't look at me.

Hello, and welcome to fourth third 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!

I didn't notice anyone acting weird yesterday. I even paid attention.

[sengokus]

Me neither...

So - what.... Could he have delayed it until today...? Is that even possible? It'd be dumb to have a pretty strong power like that and not use it, and I don't think Omi-san was dumb.

[enfangs]

... It's possible that he used it on someone who then died that night. Not saying that's gotta be the case, but...

[sengokus]

[ . . . he looks thoughtful]

... maybe... but then how would that work...

[enfangs]

Depends on how many killers we're looking at here. You think the Avatars would tell us if they're all still alive?

[sengokus]

We can ask...? Can you see, White?

[enfangs]

Sure.

[shuffles off]

[toesies]

I don't know. But being alive seems like a prerequisite of using a power, so... [She frowns.] I guess we should wait until we see his body? We don't know how sudden or quick his death was.

[sengokus]

[nods...]

Yeah. I guess if you're disoriented, it can be hard to use a power.

[toesies]

Or if you don't know who to target.
