[Penguinator]

Poppa Penguinator shook his head. The Dyviil shoved a small coin pouch into Rico's hand, pointing him towards the destroyed R'lyeh. "Is it worth two gold for another person that won't do anything for me? Only time will tell."

[Tom the Mime]

I'll take the fifth spot in the vault. And point at The Grimmace. If the ghosts are going to get a no vote day, I want them to have to do something during the day whether it's vote voiding or inducing people not to vote.

Do we know what sort of contest it is today?

[Ramsus]

It's Luck. I guess Bladescape forgot to put it in.

[RuneboundShade]

2, as always.

And a vote on cd4, because I'm pretty sure he isn't in any of my many... wait, I probably shouldn't repeat that quip.
Regardless, I don't think he's on my team.

[Istari]

Fine Tom the Mime, happy?

[cd4]

Runeboundshade in retaliation.

[Penguinator]

Poppa Penguinator looked out over the grounds. It was quiet. Too quiet. "Rico, remember to dispatch an agent to spot 17." He shook his head, adding, "And let us see where cd4 goes."

[Lex-Kat]

I'll take Vault spot 5.

I vote for Alarra.

[Ramsus]

Tom took spot 5 already Lex. Would you like spot 6 instead?
Edit: ...or not. Onime just grabbed that spot. Looks like you'll have to sit out the Vault today Lex (unless you have a Key and want to use it).

[Onime-no-Enishi]

no idea whats this but taking vault spot 6

(just got back from some IRL stuffs >>; )

will do more once i catch up

[Atreyu the Masked LLama]

I vote for Alarra.

Even in a game as confusing as this, one thing remains true. Wolves gotta die.

[Alarra]

Indeed they do. Which is why I will point at Atreyu.

[BourgeoisJerry]

Jerry stands, or floats rather, in the center of what used to be R'lyeh, practicing his evil laugh.

"Mwahahahaha! Bwahahahaha! Gwahahahaha! Zwahahahaha! Kuhuhuhuhu! Kyahahahaha! Or maybe just... heh."

Jerry looks off into the distance, where not enough of those living fools are too busy doing nothing to bicker about who should die.

"Perhaps I should step in and shut that Penguinator up. Does the blue even show up in my speech? Gah! Why am I suddenly breaking the forth wall? And where did my puns go? Oh, who cares. I just need to get in there and do something evil. Like... steal usourselves&we's spot 3. Oh, and I should bid 1 point of logic on my stuff, just in case."

[usourselves&we]

A thought, more like a personality, floats into Jerry's mind 'Not really all that evil, you see because the other guys already are on their way to the vault, third in line of course. Oh, don't you grimmace like that, you can steal from us some other time.'
Pretty much a Meta-point to try to lessen Grimm's work load as he is needed in other games. . .

[Szilard]

cd4? This game is too confusing.

Spot 1.

[Ur-Quan]

cd4!

Also, 13

[Lady Serpentine]

Atreyu, Alarra, you are correct.

However, Ur-Quan has told me that they're a wolf, so maybe voting for them would be a better idea?

[Ur-Quan]

Hmph, lies from the ghosts, because they feel bad about my power. MY POWER WHICH MAKES THEIR BLUE VOTES MEAN NOTHING.

No victories for you ghosts, as long as I'm alive. Lynching me would mean that I'm not alive, and that dead players are accumulating victory points which could as well jeopardize all living players from their hard-earned victory. Myself? I'll be accumulating the same with them if I die.

To cut the long story short, ghosts will try mainly anything to get me lynched. Your own choice if you're going to lynch me and make the game harder for yourself.

[Lady Serpentine]

Ah, but it happens to not be a lie. Take a look at post 7 here. Pretty fair proof, yes?

[Ur-Quan]

Who was talking 'bout me there? :D

[Lady Serpentine]

You were, as evidenced by the little star next to your name indicating that that's a registered user, and that's the name you use, as anyone who's been in a QT with you can attest.

(Lex-Kat, for example, as she had access to the Masons QT in Assassin's, and Szilard for the same reason.)

[Ramsus]

Day 13 over.

((Though feel free to keep talking. ))

[Lady Serpentine]

Well, that was a bad time to try to redirect the lynch...

[bladescape]

Day Thirteen:

The survivors briefly enjoyed the feathers that were falling from the sky. The pretty azure and white sheen made them extremely beautiful ornaments, and any who had a touch of the paranormal felt the power that was hidden in these feathers. The feathers that piled up in streetcorners.

The rain seemed never ending, and soon almost everyone realised how futile it was to even think of stopping the feathers from going wherever they wanted. There certainly wasn't a door or window that could stop the stubborn things getting into any and every house.

However, having mustered it's strength, realised that it's Masked cohort was no where to be found and decided its course of action, the clouds above, priorly shining in a reflection of the feathers, suddenly turned dark.

Twin piercing red eyes started down through the sheen of smoke, nothing else visible behind the vague screen, but the feeling of malevolence and power.

A brief gust of wind caught everyone still, the searing heat suddenly touching the entire breadth of all four remaining islands. In a moment, the feathers were burning. Then shrivelling and crumbling to ash.

'Those were my feathers!' One voice screamed out. His black cloak flapping in the superheated wind. 'Give them back now!'

The baleful eyes twisted towards him. The pure red staring into the protesting human's own eyes. 'I DEMAND you... you...' His voice died as he felt the creature reach down, mentally. The force crumpling him onto the sidewalk.

'You make NO demands of me, mortal.' The voice contrasted oddly with entire world. As if each syllable was somehow out of place. Like a new style pair of jeans in a medieval castle.

And then, screaming, the formerly protesting man began burning. Writhing on the ground as the flames poured over him, SuperDark stumbled up on his feat, desperately trying to put out the hungry tongues as they consumed him. A moment later, and the screaming corpse fell tottering off the edge, flames illuminating the endless darkness below.

Inside a few rooms, some sheltered softly over the feathers they'd saved, though some had turned black as night. Even those ghosts, who, to their delight, could actually hold these small treasures, held firmly onto the feathers, waiting a moment before the darkness turned its head away.

Behind a glass screen, looking on at the scene, the masked man shuddered. Slowly placing the small casket full to the brim of shining feathers beneath a solid compartment built into the floor of the safehouse, the man shuddered again.

'Perhaps we should return there. Our hiding only causes his wrath to grow.' 'No. We cannot. Our only chance comes from avoiding his gaze. We don't need to ruin all this preparation, just for a few mortals.'

'We would have no chance currently. The winds are changing.' 'I feel, a dark, foul pressence...' 'You took that long to sense old steamy?' 'Not him.'

'She is right, there is something... more.' Standing rigidly still for a moment, the mouth creases into a small smile, fighting with itself to turn into a frown of disgust. 'The girl's right. There is .... The book. It is here.'

*******

The Vault. Overgrown with vines as if abandoned for decades and swathed in deep fog. 6 brave souls in search of treasure, glory, and fame. Coming soon to a thread near you!

Thanks to movie storytelling cliches our protagonists soon do what all parties know not to do but, inevitably do anyway. Read the GM's notes, eat his pizza, and play video games while he gives exposition Split the party.

cd4, Alarra, and &we end up attacked by man eating plants. Correction, woman eating plants. (Editor's note: Killing the girl off first? Might want to rethink this.)

C'nor, Tom, and Onime are simultaneously attacked in a separate location (right after some scenery porn) by zombies. C'nor is lagging behind, almost gets bitten before Onime saves him, then he shoots Onime in the leg and makes his escape.

Having each lost a member, both teams decide to try to find the other for safety in numbers. So each pair splits up to search for the other group.

Stumbling around in the dark with only their flashlights cd4 sees the pit trap just too late to shout out to C'nor to save him from falling into it.

&we and Tom meet up and have a expositive discussion to deal with plot holes. Tom is the smart guy for most of this scene, &we says the thing that was probably better left unexplained.

Stuff.

cd4 being chased by plants and &we & Tom being chased by zombies (&we dies at start of scene) arrive on opposite sides of a large lawn. Big monster battle occurs. Then Alarra-turned-giant plant monster shows up kills cd4 (audience was led to believe he was the "for sure going to live" guy) and goes for Tom but, Onime shows up with a deus ex machina, turning Alarra back into a human (Editor's note: Ah ok. That works.) and they leave. Que happily ever after music.

After credits reveal: Bite mark on Tom's leg and vine tendril moving under the back of Alarra's shirt.

Any chance we come back as a zombie in the sequel, or is there going to be a prequel, no wait, it's both because time travel.

I have composed a poem in honor of the occasion.

Evil strange thing
Ageless and Eternal
Terrifying presence

All we can do is
Learn our mistakes
And try not to
Repeat them.
Rally now
And triumph

[Penguinator]

That's terrible.

I'm going out of town til Monday. Don't kill me.
