"By the Just hand of Telmorin, may we blunt the shards of dissent that threaten our noble order!"[/i]

Like all of us good priests, I worship all the gods-- but I have always been closest to Telmorin. The white candle might indicate my allegiance thus. Perhaps, and this is just speculation, Teal represents the lesser gods of the pantheon if Sister Vector feels close to all the gods.

[Ninja'd by many- there's a lot to digest here.]

Except that all the white candles are lit. I reccomend my chart.

's a good chart.

Onyx, I can't see the candles doing nothing... but so far it seems our flavor has been more or less identical regardless of what candles we have lit. Changing them might be more important than what ones were lit or unlit at start. I'm curious to see what Okami no Rei got as flavor, though, given that all three candles are lit there.

Shall we see what happens when someone gets all 3 lit? Any volunteers?

I'd only need one candle lit. I'd volunteer. But hear this: If I die because of this I shall not care for my present decision in retrospect. Still... Let's give it a whirl.

I am willing to die for the cause.

...

Yeaaah... that sounded much more fanatically insane than intended. Suffice to say I volunteer for tribute.

...

I should lie down. Too much time on TvTropes is not healthy.

You dieing helps us not. We don't even know what it'll do... Unless you know something we don't.

However, I can confirm that the teal candle != scum.

Want to explain that line of reasoning Vector

Because I know I'm not scum, and I've got a teal candle lit.

[Ninja'd by many- there's a lot to digest here.]

No, I worship all of them, but I'm closest to someone in particular.  However, I feel especially close to that god at the moment.

[Toaster]

I also serve all the gods but feel closest to one.  I don't see a value of claiming which one at this time.

Dariush:  Will you first try to solve a puzzle or hunt scum?


Meph:  Can you explain what you mean by voting candles?  Can you change a vote, once cast?  Can we vote players?  Is flavor relevant?


Solifuge:  Ask Okami- he already has all three candles lit.  Actually...


Okami:  Why are all your candles lit?



Priest Toaster bows before the priest, and says a prayer to the gods.  "High Priest, how do we find the traitors?"

[RangerCado]

If teal were to indicate an investigation and green a healing ability, why then are there so many green? A white going out would probably kill someone but it could be a trick. Dieing helps us not dear brothers and sisters, what would happen if all but the white where extinguished i wonder?

Oh you meant that it didn't equal scum... Well alright I guess. Though if you were scum you'd say that but that leads down the road to WIFOM. I apologize.

Unvote

Or if all the candles were lit? We'll need to experiment.

Ask Remuthra.

In that vein,

Remuthra, have you any idea what the effect of having only one candle lit is?

[Toaster]

I think the candles influence role powers.

I feel my god's presence, and "with it" I have some role ability.  Look back at the flavor- themes of light and darkness abound.  The traitors "worship their gods of Light and Darkness."  From this, I deduce that all players- town and scum- have changing roles based on the positioning of candles.


To test this, I think all the candles of one ring (not white, because it could indeed be linked to life) should be extinguished or lit.  Thoughts?

[Solifuge]

New thought: What do candles do while lit?

Answer: They slowly burn out.

It's possible that candles are a form of timer, and lighting them confers a benefit, but only lasts so long, and may confer a penalty once burned out. That might be why we can Light or Snuff them. Also, according to the OP (such as it can be trusted) resurrections are possible, and I really do get the feeling that White is the ALIVENESS candle (I'm viewing candles as binary states), so as long as we don't snuff it we should be alright.

Onyx, since you are excited about dying (though I'm pretty sure you'll be fine), we can Guinea Pig you. I can take no responsibility for bad things that may happen to you. Now, if you'll just sign this waiver...

Light Onyxjew944's Teal candle

Let's see if you feel closer to your god-buddy once the Teal candle is lit?

[Remuthra]

I'll volunteer as well. I appear to be a priest of the sun god, so I assume trying lighting all my candles is worthwhile.

[Toaster]

Quick notes:

Telmorin-  Primary of the Gods


(Night) Derala -Siblings- Avos (Day)    Born of Clouds

(Land)  Nirian -Siblings- Andoras (Sea)  Born of Mountain


Avos weds Nirian- their children are Man

I'm thinking two gods prefer candles lit and two prefer them out, while a different pair prefer teal to green.  Derala and Avos are obvious opposites, while I would guess Land wants lit and Sea wants out.  Perhaps the first two are teal (sky?) and the second two are green (plant/life).

[Toaster]

Remuthra:  If you feel this question is fishing too much, you can refuse to answer, but as of right now does your flavor indicate you feel particularly close to your god right now?
