    Default Circle of Assassins XII: Wringling Sisters Circus

    "She floats through the air with the greatest of....." The crowd screams as they watch the darling of the flying trapeze suddenly plummet to her death, crashing through the safety net and splattering onto the hard ground forty feet below.

    Above, the now limp wires of the fly bar dangle. The bar itself is lays a few feet away, where it had rolled after delivering a final insult to the pixie girl's head.

    The ring master looked at the crumpled body in shocked horror. It wasn't until the clowns raced out to cover the ghastly scene did he finally come out of his stunned daze. Oh, yes. Sorry. He turned to the staging area. Has someone called an ambulance yet?

    No answer was given.
    The following was copy/pasted from Szilard's OP, then edited.
    Characters
    Murder at the circus. Where everyone wears a mask of one kind or another. There are plenty of secrets to be found at the the mad house under the big top. And now it seems people are going to die for them.

    Name, Act/Job: You work at the circus, that much is clear. But what is your name, or pseudonym. And what exactly is it you do at this circus?

    Description: Hopefully you aren't invisible, describe yourself!

    Weapons/Skills: Describe what weapons, defences, skills you have that will help you survive this fun-filled horror show.

    Secret: PM me the secret you wish to hide from your fellow artists. Don't let anyone else know, it may be the death of you.

    Let's take a look at Lexi the Pixie, shall we? ((Sample Profile))

    Name: Lexi the Pixie
    Description: Petite young woman just barely out of her teens. She was light as a feather (figuratively, of course), so you know that it wasn't her weight that snapped the wires of the fly bar. She had long dark red hair that flowed to her derriere. She was very popular with audiences of all ages and genders. She always wore wings during the live shows.
    Act/Job: Trapeze Artist.
    Weapons/Skills: Very Flexible: When not flying through the air, she wowed the public by twisting herself like a pretzel. A very popular show with young men in particular.
    She could fly!: Hard to believe, but it was true... almost. When leaping from bar to bar, or to a catcher and back, she seemed to remain aloft for longer than should have been possible. Maybe it was the wings?
    Archery: She had been working on a new routine (for her) of shooting a bow using only her feet. But first, she had to learn how to shoot a bow normally. A lot easier, in comparison.
    Secret: She was having an affair with many of her fellow performers. Maybe one of them killed her.

    Game Rules:
    Spoiler
    Show

    I Character creation

    1. Post your character's name and a description in the recruitment thread.
    1.1 The name should be appropriate for the theme of the game.
    1.2 The description should include at least the character's favored method of killing. Other details on his appearance, personality and modus operandi are also appreciated.
    2. Send the Narrator your character's secret in a PM. What the secret is depends on the theme of the game, but it is usually a secret identity or vulnerability.

    Secret: PM this to me: do NOT post it on the game thread. This may be a skeleton in your character's closet or an actual physical weakness.

    II The game round

    1. The Narrator post a list of all remaining characters, and a list of secrets that are connected to those characters.
    2. Send the Narrator a PM with a guess. If you can guess correctly which secret belongs to which character, that character dies at the end of the round. Write your guess in the following format: [character] is [secret]
    2.1 Once you've sent your PM, you cannot change your guess. The only exception to this rule is that if your target is invalid, you can change your target.
    2.2 You can only target characters and secrets listed by the Narrator.
    2.3 You cannot target your own character, but you can target your character's secret.
    2.4 The deaths occur simultaneously, and thus it is possible for two characters to kill each other, or even for all remaining characters to die on the same round.
    2.5 If two or more players kill the same target, it counts as an assisted kill for each of the players.
    2.6 If you don't send a PM to the Narrator, or your PM does not have a valid guess in it, you are considered to be absent on that round. Two consecutive absences result in auto-elimination.
    2.7 You are allowed to send your guess in advance if you know you'll otherwise be absent on a round. You may include conditions as necessary to avoid choosing an invalid target.
    3. You may roleplay your character in the game thread. It is not obligatory, but it is recommended.
    4. You may make pacts with other players. A pact may be public (made in the game thread) or secret (made in PMs). In either case, any such pacts are non-binding.
    5. When 72 hours (3 days) have passed or everyone has sent in their PMs, the Narrators narrate the deaths and lists all guesses made that round. The guesses are listed in the following format: [character A]: [character B] is [secret] (miss!/HIT!)
    6. The Narrators checks how many players are left.
    6.1 If there are no characters alive, the game is over and there is no winner.
    6.2 If there is one character left, that player wins the game. If there are two characters left, the one with more kills wins; if it's still a tie, unassisted kills determine the winner.
    6.3 If there are three or more characters left, a new round begins.

    Finally I manage to catch another CoA game! I am so in!

    Name: Christopher Milev

    Act: Snake charmer

    Description: Christopher (or simply Chris) is a slim, unassuming-looking boy with neatly trimmed blond hair and pale green eyes. He generally has worried or saddened expression on his face and tends to cough a lot, having always been bit of a sickly individual. Spending a lot of time rehearsing his stage act, he wears a scaled cape and carries a long flute, with a snake or two generally wrapped around his shoulders and carried in his sleeves.

    Weapons/Skills: Beneath notice: when not actively seeking to be noticed, Christopher tends to be overlooked by most people he meets, his sickly nature and unassuming frame not exactly setting off alarm bells in anyone's head. Sometimes this ability can seemingly be truly supernatural, allowing him to be utterly forgotten by all around him even as he plans a knife to their backs.
    Animal Master: Contrary to popular belief, snakes are not only thing Christopher is capable of charming, and he can easily order around anything from ants to elephants.
    Poisonous Person: Due to not being fast or strong, the young man has been forced to learn other ways to ensure his survival in a scuffle, and is undisputed master in employing poisons of various types.

    Secret: Wouldn't you like to know.

    Default Re: Circle of Assassins XII: Wringling Sisters Circus

    Name: Peter Zar

    Character: A sinewy, thin man, with blondish, nearly white hair. Actually, he dyed it so long white-blond that they are now natural white and he has to dye them a bit blond to get the correct look. He joined the circus when he was 15, running away from his parents who wanted him to be an lawyer and take over daddies office. His parents thought he was kidnapped and started a search and... well, they are still convinced he was kidnapped. If they are still alive. Not that he cared. Anyway, he learned from a juggler and is now proficient with balls, cones, knifes, chainsaws and darts. Actually, he's best with darts. If he wasn't at the circus he would easily win the championships. Nobody told him that he could make more money that way, though.

    Act/Job:
    Well, Juggler. And, you know the guy who can't walk by a bound lady with balloons around her body without taking out his knifes and shoot the balloons? That's him. Yes, he's also the one who binds up the lady and blows up the balloons.

    Secret: He used to practice to get that good. Well, he thought it was a good idea to practice the real thing. Unfortunately not all bound ladies stood still. Well, some did but it was practicing, wasn't it? Anyway, nobody found the bodies so it isn't that bad, right?

    Fate: In the end the police questioned him about the knife murders that always happened when circus was in town. That is, if he survives the murders that just are happening IN the circus.

    Name: "No-Face" Russell

    Description: Russell is a wizened old man, clearly showing the signs of his immense (and unknown) age. He's worked at this circus for over 50 years, and never seems to have gotten any older. The nickname "No-Face" is because Russell's face is heavily scarred from, in his words: "an 'ccidnt wit' 'dem dadgum 'ere lions" - his right eye socket is empty and (mostly) scarred over, but his left eye is a piercing bright blue. Russell is thin and short, and generally slumps over, so he's roughly the same size as a child. He has an uncontrollable twitch, and is constantly muttering under his breath.

    Job: Carnie. He does all sorts of work backstage and in booths - no one seems to know what his real job actually is.

    Weapons/Skills:
    - Russell was a boxer in his youth, and is still very strong - he was famous for being able to knock a man out with one punch. He's been seen lifting fifty-pound bags of sand over his head with one arm. (although never by enough people to let the story spread).
    - Russell knows the circus better than the back of his hands; he can generally find whatever he's looking for, notice when anything's out of place, and move around completely silently even when he can't see.
    - Russell carries several syringes with him, hidden in one of his pockets. He claims they are for his own personal medical use, but they're actually filled with a paralysis-inducing poison.

    Name: Sparkles/Quicksilver

    Act/Job: Sparkles/Quicksilver is both the resident clown and the resident magician. His real name is unknown.

    Description: As a clown, he goes by Sparkles. He is famous for his gags with firecrackers, and his face paint includes large stars over his eyes. As a magician, he goes by Quicksilver. He wears a black tuxedo, with a mask covering his face. His tricks revolve around "transmuting" various things into silver.

    Weapons/Skills:
    Coulrophobia: Plenty of people are afraid of clowns. Sparkles knows how to feed off of both laughter and terror.
    Vanishing Act: Whenever things don't go well, Quicksilver can "disappear" at will.
    Hammerspace: Sparkles' pants will fit anything and everything.
    Transmutation: Quicksilver can easily make lemons into orangeade.

    Secret: Some suspect he has multiple personalities, which would allow for the drastic change in his characters.

    Name Barnaby 'The Flash' Bill

    Act Human Cannonball

    Description A muscled character, he defies the usual sleekness you'd expect from a human cannonball. But what he lacks in aerodynamics, he makes up for in resiliency, allowing him to be shot into all manner of things, not just a net.

    Weapons/Skills
    Tough as Nails Getting shot out of a cannon every day does wonders for your resilience. Most things won't hurt him.
    Stunning Stupidity Getting shot out of a cannon every day does terrible things to your IQ. He can baffle his opponents just by speaking.
    Giant Cannon The mother of all weapons, a giant freaking cannon. Pretty useless in practice though.

    Name: Stubbs McGee

    Description: Poor kid just can't grow a beard. Try as he might, all he can achieve is peach fuzz, or a half-grown, impotent mustache. His lot in life is to forever be unmanly. He forever wears a resigned expression, and wears an ill-fitting tuxedo--another mark of his unmanlyness.

    Act: The Unbearded Gentleman

    Weapons/Skills:
    The Straight Man: If you can't grow a beard, might as well shave what mess you have. Without a beard to grow, Stubbs McGee has become very adept at using any type of blade to shave his fuzz, be it a Gillette OchoCinco (TM), a safety razor, a straight razor, a kamisori, or even Occam's Razor. This kind of skill with a blade can come in very handy indeed.
    Awkward Shuffle: Not a boy, not a man, Stubbs McGee is just kind of awkward. He'll just stand there, and he won't talk. This tends to make many uncomfortable. And then he strikes! Mwhahahahaha! I mean, erm, he stays awkward.
    Ill-suited: With such a loose suit, Stubbs McGee can keep anything in his many pockets and easily escape detection. Who knows what he keeps in there...

    Secret: He likes to eat hair. Maybe that's why his beard isn't there.

    @ Penguinator and Szilard:

    You are supposed to pm secrets! So I hope you can come up with a new one.

    Name: Leslie the Liger (not Lion! Not Tiger!) Trainer

    Description: One of the newest recruits to join the circus. Leslie was an instant star attraction with her Liger and looks. She is a short woman with brown hair and eyes. Not attractive or unattractive by any means. Her really prize is in her outgoing personality and ability to draw the crowd into her act.

    Act: Liger Trainer. Leslie and her Liger Simba (she was seven at the time!) put on a show with mock fighting, riding, and daredevil events.

    Weapons/Skills:
    Pet Liger: How many girls can say that they have a completely obedient pet Liger? Leslie can! She's had it ever since she was seven and trained it herself!
    Improvised Weapons: For some strange reason, the crowd always loves seeing Leslie "fight" with her Liger. Always a crowd thriller. As such, Leslie has learned to fight with almost any unorthodox weapon. Chair, ladder, glass bottles, whips etc.
    Not wearing your seat belt? See you soon!

    Name: Lankie Tallson

    Description: An incredibly tall and thin fellow in his early 20s. Curly black hair, boyish features.

    Act: Stiltwalking

    Weapons/Skills:
    Ungodly reach: He can kick you from across the room... or the circus tent.

    Gangly might: Despite his wavering, teetering and tottering, he always manages to stay on his feet. Few obstacles are too tall for him to step over. If he had the time and the circus director allowed him to, he could probably go around the world in about eighty strides.

    Secret: He's very lonely. He also has another, very secret secret.

    Abdul Hamad

    Description:
    An arabic man of mid to late 20's, Abdul is a hunched over and ugly figure, disfigured from an early age when he had an accident with liquids. Underneath the face disfigured from the scalding it received a long time ago, two bright eyes shine with loathing for the people around him.

    Act/Job:
    An expert painter of various methods, Abdul is the resident make-up artist, in charge of making sure the performers all look their best for the crowd.

    Weapons/Skills:
    Master of make up:
    And other things. He can use paints in an almost magical way, able to change how someone looks from just a small session with his make up kit. This also extends to artistry of all kinds, or at least those involving a brush.

    Sharp ears:
    There's a reason Abdul makes good ground despite his looks. He has ears that can hear a secret being whispered from a mile away. And he's been pretty good at using it to keep himself up in the food chain.

    Secret:
    Fell in love with the Pixie during his tenure, but with the little whiffs of knowledge of her many affairs and the others who lust after her, it has grown into an ugly obsession to own her. It's such a pity no one can touch her anymore.

    A week goes by after the "incident", with no further deaths. Lexi's death has been ruled an accident, and the case closed.

    But by the looks of her fellow performer's faces, few believe it. Both the fly bar and the netting were cut. So it was obviously murder. But who would do such a thing, and why?

    The members of the Wringling Sisters Circus plan to find out, their own way.

    I do, mister. A young girl says, waving a closed fist at the hot dog vender. There is obviously money in it.

    15 minutes before he needs to join with the rest of the circus band, Travis is standing off to the side observing everyone.

    Making fun of my lack of facial hair. They'll all pay. I shaved with a katana this morning...

    Noticing the apprehensive oglers, Stubbs flashes a smile, and they relax.

    Quicksilver was still in his tent, trying to decide which mask to wear for the performance. The girl's death had been tragic, yes, but it was of no consequence to him. He hadn't been one of her many admirers. Admirers... that gave him an idea. He snatched up his rose-tinted mask, checked himself in the mirror, grabbed his matching bowtie, and headed outside.


    Finally forced me into getting one of these.

    Peter was throwing knifes. As always when he was thinking. This time he used a puppet out of straw because kids were watching. He tried to cut only one piece of straw with one throw. Most of the time he succeeded.

    Emerging from his tent to see most of the other big time carnies milling about, Christopher feels quite awkward like always when around crowds. Trying to ignore the shakes he gets from being around such a crowd, he walks over to the hot dog vendor, tugging his sleeve and huddling in his snakeskin cloak. "Um...o-one for me, please..."
