A dark storm rolled through the hills last night. Lightning and thunder like none experienced in living memory. A Dark night, and one full of Dark Deeds.
The bells of the Church ring out in mourning as the news spreads. The High Priest is dead! Only his head left behind, sitting upon the very alter of his Church. Who could possibly have done such a horrible thing? And why?
The Baron calls forth the fourteen most influential of the townsfolk. You are among them. As you stand before his throne he beckons his steward to come forward. The man holds in his hand a large book, the Book of Dooms.
"Ahem." he coughs. "When Great Peril does come to the land, it shall be the duty of the Pillars of the Community to step forward. Fourteen shall stand, and Fourteen shall answer. Not to the laws of Men, but the laws of the Creator. For Judge they shall have only themselves, and to Seek Justice they need only look amongst one another. For the Pillars hold up the Land, and there is Rot among the Pillars. Day upon Day shall they Vote, casting down Pillar after Pillar until all the Rot is excised. Seek well and Vote True, for if the Rot is left all the Land shall suffer."
The Baron thanks him and turns to you.
"I...never thought I'd see the day when that passage would hold true. But with such a desecration...there is no doubt. Go to the Town Hall to conduct this...Trial, I suppose. I will have my Guards surround it. Seek well and find those who plot against us, please!"
Murmurs erupt amongst the group as you are escorted to the Hall. Who of your neighbours would do such a thing? How can you condemn your fellow townsfolk to death?
But you must. The Rot must be found. You must Vote.
The Trial has Begun.
The Game has started! Day 1 will go until ~5pm Pacific Monday
