WEEK 3: TRIAL

[dormheads]

week three: trial

victims:

Good thing yesterday was just a dream, huh?

Just kidding. Everyone will wake up to a text on their phone that has only a simple message:

Go to the gymnasium at 12 PM. Attendance is mandatory.

Everyone is free to go to the designated spot on their own, but once it hits 11:55, any stragglers will feel compelled to go and will join the others at the gym. As soon as every student is inside, the doors will lock behind them.

All of the bleachers are out, so students are free to sit wherever they like. At the very front of the gym is a gathering of a few items, one being a large desk where two of the Dorm Heads are present. When the clock hits noon, the scoreboard turns on, starting a countdown of nine hours.

From where she's seated, Sally speaks.

"You have nine hours again. It's... you'll be able to do it. Work hard."

Better get to it. That scoreboard is ticking.

Hello everyone and welcome to our fourth trial! the next nine hours, the characters are expected to discuss among themselves, ask questions, examine the bodies of the victims, look over the evidence found yesterday, and revisit locations as needed in order to find the culprit(s). There'll be a one hour break from 5-6 PM EST, where no mod tags will occur.

Before the trial is over, please remember to place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9 PM EST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously.

If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

Either he does not remember for reasons other than a power, Kon's power did not work on him for some reason, or one of the other three for whom there has been no evidence killed him.

[He pauses for a moment and then frowns.]

. . . How much for an ability that would make me impervious to magic?

[azuta]

[she twines her fingers together]

12 Vouchers base price - once a week, only impervious to one spell for a limited time. Discounts negotiable.

Your theories are equally sensible to me, given the possibilities that you are eliminating.

[katzepaw]

Last week, when Beauregard punched Rupert. . . he would have had to have remembered for it to work, ja?

[azuta]

Well... he did remember, and therefore it worked. That's true.

But I'm not sure what result you'd get if someone didn't remember but the intention was still to retrieve the truth.

[katzepaw]

[He's massaging his temples, getting frustrated.]

Is there a reason he wouldn't remember, other than simply. . . being asleep?

[azuta]

[ . . . her brow furrows in concern.]

... we've learned this week that memories are fickle things, aren't they?

I'm afraid I have no additional insight on this. But I do think... you can stand to be more confident in yourself.

[katzepaw]

Hah. Easier said than done.

[But he will give her a small, slightly more genuine smile.]

[azuta]

[she huffs a bit]

You work hard. I've seen it all day today.

That's why I'm comfortable betting on you.
