WEEK FIVE - TRIAL

[hellscapes]

Hello, deadlings. Ready to work double-time?

You may have been wondering what you could possibly do in the aftermath of yesterday's beek. Your demons weren't entirely helpful, and it seems that there were no answers to be found. But on Saturday morning at 11am, you'll soon hear a sound coming from the dock. There's a large ferry waiting for you, and even if you resist you'll eventually find yourself compelled to climb aboard and set off on a short voyage. The islands around you look fairly blurry, but you don't go very far before you stop at a slab of land with two large buildings stationed. The Execution Bar is locked tight and you won't be able to head in that direction. Instead, once again, your feet navigate you to the building on the right as the door creaks open.

Inside is a bar. It's dimly lit in several places, but bright enough for you to see each other and navigate without running into the furniture. Tables and chairs are scattered around in front of the bar counter, and the floor is far less sticky than the bar on the other island. Stained glass windows decorate the walls depicting images of humanity's suffering, and concrete crosses and tombstones are gathered in the corners. The bar itself is fully stocked with all types of alcohol and mixers, along with an array of bar food to help keep your energy up.

At the head of the room lounging among the statues of saints and the Blessed Virgin are Bloody Mary, Cosmopolitan and Midori. With them is also a cut-out of Guy Fieri, dressed as a (sexy?) samurai with a bunch of cool flames cut out of construction paper glued to his back as he walks away from an explosion. He is also holding a sign that says "YOU CAN SOLVE IT!" However, there are now paper tears glued to his face as well. And he looks ready to fall apart.

The second, fresher Fieri is also still here. Why.

Above them hangs another hand-painted banner, sloppily thrown together.

CONGRATS ON YOUR TRIAL!
12pm - 9pm
Vote or suffer eternal damnation

You can try to leave, but the door to the bar has been locked. All of the windows are reinforced, and there isn't another way out. You've been called here for one reason...let the misery begin!

Hello, and welcome to your sixth trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about this week's murders! Characters will have time to examine the bodies 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, we have a voting page for characters to vote on the culprit! Please be sure to read this page carefully and that your vote is in by the time trial finishes (9pm EST/6pm PST).

Good luck, and have fun!

weapons, weapons, bring out your weapons

[psynchronise]

[ right, well. now we have some body-ody-ody info! ]

Like Harrow said, we've got a lot of injuries on Kon and there's going to be a weapon out there that made them.

You all know the drill by now, we're running a weapon check.

[ please link a photo thank you ]

it's the pirate sword that he got

at the beginning of trial. he presents it so proudly. ]

[selfdestructs]

[cavaliered]

[sord]

[polyglotti]

[None weapons]

[hardrocklife]

[he presents his sword as usual.]

[tearduct]

[Shrugs in compliance but none weapon.]

[onlythans]

[Like last week he's still got these sick daggers but he'll also do Date one better and lift his shirt/bandages enough to offer a still-recent torso wound.]

This is what it looks like to be stabbed with one. If you're curious.

[Hey, at least he's cooperating this week?]

[psynchronise]

[ date gained +1 eyeful of grizzled man abs. ]

Thanks, I think? I'll keep that in mind when cross referencing.

[firstandgreatest]

[ its a harpoon. here]

[teufelshund]

[ still no weapons. ]

[birdeater]

[ none weapons ]

[failbo]

[Bloody Mary once said anything can be a weapon, but after a moment he just shrugs and decides in his paws probably not really, so...

...no weapons]

[greatvalue]

[presents a whole lot of nothing]

[voidshift]

[no weapons!]

[eleusinia]

I have a scythe, but it's in my room. People have seen it, though, and I can go get it if I need to.

[birdeater]

[ none weapons ]

complaining about how you don't want to weapons!

[psynchronise]

[preordain]

[ sadly sits in this spot without scaramouche </3 ]

outcome of weapons!

[psynchronise]

[psynchronise]

[ anyway here he is ]

None of the weapons handed over are a good match. Thancred's daggers were closer in size to the wounds but still too large, and the crab multi-tool is too small.

So, whatever did this is still out there somewhere.

[outsidebones]

I think it most likely then that the wounds were caused by a knife or dagger smaller than Thancred's.

Does anyone have something like that to compare?

[cavaliered]

You'd have to be stupid to bring your weapon to trial at this point, so I'm not surprised.
