Werewolf IV (In Session)

[Dispozition]

((@Korith: Bad ghost! Stay dead! Please? Unless it has something to do with the amulet...In which case I'm all ears...))

*Dis looks at DLD and raises an eyebrow*

Any ideas on the amulet? You seemed to be thinking quite hard about it...

[Krursk]

Krursk tries casting speak with dead. Assuming that doesn't work he goes back to bed and waits to be awoken by the sound of accusations flying through the air

[DarkLightDragon]

Um... I'm not sure EXACTLY what it does. If it's a protective device, which it seems to be, it's either a weak one or not focused on werewolves. But it's entirely possible that the amulet could've been used as a way of contact. Two villagers killed in one night. We could look for more similar items and see if they have a connection...

[Dispozition]

*Dis nods his head*

Sounds like a good idea. I'll go check out bookmans house then.

*Dis walks off to Bookmans house*

[El Jaspero, the Pirate King]

El Jaspero stands in the door of Bookman's house, playing a sad tune on his banjo. "Poor little doggy. I liked his stories."

He stops playing and slings the banjo over his shoulder. "But you can't seriously think this is my doing? Take a look; the handwriting is far too legible. Besides...isn't it obvious that I didn't kill the llama?" He turns to Moon_Called. "No offense intended, but had it been me that killed the llama would I have left all that delicious meat to spoil? Clearly not. These wolves are clever indeed, but don't fall for these cheap tricks."

[Mr. Moon]

"Isn't that what a werewolf would say after making a foolish mistake?" It is clear from her tone of voice that she had spent much time thinking last night. She reaches out with one hand to close Bookman's eyes, and stands. "But I have to admit, you are right. I'm sorry I was so... hasty. I should have thought it out." She averts her gaze from El Jaspero's, and her voice drops to little more then a whisper. "I, of all people, should know better then to judge."

[TheChris]

TheChris jerks awake on his front porch, "Whawiththewhonow!?" Clearing the sleep from his eyes he stands up. "More death and amulets you say....man I wish I had something like that....either really...."

[Silkenfist]

Silkenfist, still a bit sleepy from the night on the watch, walks up to the mutilated corpse of Korith. He sits down and ponders the facts before finally speaking up:

"Well...there are two possibilities concerning the information we are given here:

Firstly they could be created by higher powers of divine Llamahood. In that case, they might actually point to the real traitors.
Second option, the gruesome murderers could have created this evidence willingly in order to send us astray.

As we all know, in the cosmic plan one life means nothing. If we have evidence that points to a certain individual, we should proactively put them to a merciful death. Should they be unconcious, we know that the hand, creating the evidence, is cruel and not to be trusted. It shall be a hard sacrifice but the possibility of learning more about our pursuers is worth even one of our lives.

Which leaves the question: Is there any one of us, who is incriminated by the evidence?"

[Destro_Yersul]

Destro begins diggin another two graves. Why did they kill tow? It doesn't make sense. The skewer comment points to El J, but that's far too stupid a mistake. And a wolf wouldn't leave a direct clue like that wnyways, unless it was meant to be reverse psychology. Also rules out anyone who owns a sword. A sword would make a decent sized skewer. I'm going to have to wait and see what else comes up.

[Silkenfist]

Helping the burial by crudely enbalming the remains of the two unfortunate victims, the Monk tries to strike up a conversation with Destro:

"So the evidence would point to El J. If he really was a murderer, it would be unlikely that he possessed the brazenness to leave such obvious a remark. But it is my hypothesis that not the will of the beast but some higher Llama-like powers controlled the hand of the writer. It is a slim possibility that I would like to rule out right now. If El J proves to be innocent, we can discard all further evidence with certainity."

[Destro_Yersul]

That would be correct. I still think I'm close with the sword thing though. Somehow I get the feeling El J is going to end up lynched today, even though I don't think it was him. I suppose we'll find out soon enough. Destro takes a break from digging to munch on a kumquat.

[Altharis]

"Oh, gods more deaths! You'd think they were following some predetermined game pattern or something... no that's way too weird.
I don't think we will get any good information out of the obvious clues, as they are too obvious, but maybe we should look deeper.... hmmmm..."

[DarkLightDragon]

*DLD appears to be thinking about the message and the amulet*

Well, the easiest way to find out El J's true nature would be to lynch him. I am tempted to point, but I am unsure if it would be the best course of action to take. All the suggestions put forth seem very wolf-like, and this confusing me.

*DLD looks over at Dispozition*

Found anything interesting so far?

[Silkenfist]

Silkenfist takes a preak from applying the thick lotion to the corpses to talk to the Dragon:

"Well, my suggestion to lynch El J (or whoever else the obvious evidence would point to) might be cruel and it might be wrong but it is not wolf-like. Think about what would be the best scenario for the wolves. The wolves would want to cause confusion that last as long as possible. My suggestion, even if it causes the death of poor El J, prevents that. After the lynch, we would definitely know whether to trust any evidence.

The best alternative, I can think of, would be to decide now to discard all evidence altogether. It might be a good strategy for the wolves to bring up this vague evidence in later rounds, where it can confuse better plans. That is a scenario I want to prevent at all costs."

[DarkLightDragon]

((Silkenfist, I just noticed that your avatar's boots are of different sizes... It's pretty funny!))

[Korith]

Korith? Is that you? Oh my. Well, how do you like the statue?

He gestures at the statue, waiting for a reply.

"The craftsmanship is excellent, and it's very pleasing to the eye. You certainly have a talent for your art!"

((@Korith: Bad ghost! Stay dead! Please? Unless it has something to do with the amulet...In which case I'm all ears...))

((I thought ghosts were allowed to comment - just not in any game-altering fashion))

Korith opens his mouth, raising a finger with an illusory imitation of his amulet, just as a wave of purple and black energy strikes him temporarily mute.

...

"Understand?"

[Fualkner Asiniti]

Drat. It seems that you cannot say anything about your death to the living. Seems that we cannot get help from you. But stay, at least until the circus show. It is 2 days away.

[DarkLightDragon]

*DLD sighs and shakes her head*

I suppose a circus show could help morale... but other than that, I'm not sure why you'd want to hold one while the werewolves are about.

[Flabbicus]

We could set a trap, like in that show with the dog, that guy, that other guy, and the two girls. Dooby Scoo? Nah, that's not it.

[Cult_of_the_Raven]

Raven comes out of her house. What's going on? then she notices the bodies. Oh, gods. not another two. why would the wolves kill in pairs? none of this makes any sense.

[Lord Fullbladder, Master of Goblins]

"Two...?"

Fullbladder, in his infinite goblinoid wisdom, says through his scarf after scrambling out of his house via the chimney.

"Why in Iggy's name would they kill two? It just doesn't make sense."

He ponders for a moment. Then he shakes his head and starts poking the air in front of his face, collecting his thoughts. This not working either, he grunts something unintellejable and puts his knuckles to his forehead, blocking out the noise around him.

"'Tis a mystery to me," he says finally. "And what if the wolves are just.... sadistic, to kill in pairs? All we have to do is wring a werewolf for information. And to do that, all we need do is flush one out."

[Selrahc]

((Perhaps Korith and Bookman were the lovers?))

[Flabbicus]

(( Or there's a Vigilante ))

[Kantur]

This is certainly odd...Two deaths in one night. An obvious clue and the obvious that it's too obvious to taken as obviously true without the possibility of it being a trap. Possibly either way...If anyone has an idea of who's to blame, well, I'd love to hear it since I've no idea personally...

[Weebl]

Well I certainly have no idea bout what's going on here. Because some evidence leads to El J and no one else, if by mid day we have no better reason, we should lynch him tust so we know what's going on. But why those two? Any Ideas on why the wolves chose them?

[veecher]

what do you mean that 2 bodies dont make sense? did everyone already forget alarras fate? i would expect to see another pair of bodies tomarrow if i were any of you. as of yet i cant offer any determinable patern, they seem to be going on a completely random selection.

the logic of the wolves clue left at joosbawxs bedside is impossible to determine. all one must do is look at who it points at and decide if you will follow it or not. also remember who else was trying to hawk skewers of meat yesterday morning before jumping on el j. id like to give koriths amulet a good examination and a while to contemplate over it. i believe it holds the secret to the wolves.

[TheChris]

"Well I think the evidence is quite clear about the deaths....we're dealing with two packs of wolves" Taking a deep puff on his seemingly endless cigar, "They probably didn't even know that they both chose our town for destruction but now they do. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out....I think our chances for surviving have somewhat declined."

[Flabbicus]

Then that means are chances of finding a wolf doubles!... Wait, how do you know that there are two packs, any number of other things could be going on...

He scrutinizes TheChris.

[Silkenfist]

(( Or there's a Vigilante ))

Possible...but vigilante-killing someone Night 1 is incredibly stupid, since it will most likely hit a villager and help the wolves. Vigilante, if you are there and can here me: Don't kill us before you have more clues. Thank you, vigilante.

[TheRabidWalnut]

Actually, rather than two wolf packs... I suggest two alternate hypothises.

1) A hunter. The hunter role allows the slaying of your killer.

2) A vigilante. A single minded killer, who kills solo, (rather than waiting for mob justice).

Since there were multiple roles in the last game, there is are probably other-that-wolves here too. I think the second option is most likely. The wolves got bookman, and the vigilante got the Baner, Korith.

Thats enough of checking the rule book (and rampant speculation)... time to start a bandwagon. Eldritch Knight, I still dont like you!
