[Rysith]

read the rules, sent my role to ChaoticJosh, voting Solifuge on ChaoticJosh's suggestion.

[JoshuaFH]

(You made too many mistakes, CJ, you should've been more careful.)

Mistakes WA? I didn't make ANY mistakes. When the sun of Day 4 rises, and you see that all the dopps are dead, you'll KNOW that I made NO mistakes!

[webadict]

Lots of content

Oh no. I never lied about anything. Where'd you get that I lied? Better yet: How do you know I'm not a Detective? I'm asking what role do I have if I'm not Detective? You can't possibly know I'm not Detective without knowing a role I have that is not that. Where's your evidence? Do you have some sort of power other than that which you claim? Or do you "know somebody?"

Oh, and CJ, do you believe I'm controlling you? Have I ORDERED you to do anything for me? This is some mighty fine presumptuous argument you got there Solifuge, considering I've pmed CJ a total of... what? 5 times? 7 times? Small stuff mostly and some suggestions, but nothing as complex as you seem to be insinuating. CJ has all the proof.

Oddly enough, Solifuge, you have yet to vote me. The only person to have any courage seems to be Alexhans, who obviously doesn't fear being in the spotlight. Why would a Townie fear that? I think you're trying to move suspicion to someone other than you, in hopes that you can start a bandwagon and create distrust toward CJ.

didn't make myself time to post...

I trust Solifuge... Webadict lied to me too...

More tomorrow.

Either way... We are better without Webadict's WIFOM.

Vote Webadict

I didn't lie about anything. You were the one asking for the other forum threads...

(You made too many mistakes, CJ, you should've been more careful.)

Mistakes WA? I didn't make ANY mistakes. When the sun of Day 4 rises, and you see that all the dopps are dead, you'll KNOW that I made NO mistakes!

I meant about those pms. Could've been a bit more careful about them if you were going to lie.

The Whiteboard
[/i]
Solifuge: Nuke9.13, Pandarsenic, Frelock, inaluct, webadict, Rysith
Twiggie: Kashyyk, TheToeBighter98
webadict: Alexhans


Reminder, day ends at ~5pm Pacific time today. That's about an hour and a half.

[Mephansteras]

  You look around at one another, an uncomfortable silence filling the room. Finally Solifuge stands up.

  "You know what? Forget this. I'm not going to just let you guys shoot me so you can satisfy your paranoia." As he walks towards the door Rysith grabs up the rifle.

  "Stop, Solifuge. You know we can't let you leave. We all think you're a dopp, and you need to die!"

  "Fine, try and hit me!" He says as he starts running for the door. As he gets close Frelock jumps at him, shoving him into a wall. Rysith takes the time to fire off a shot. It misses by inches, punching a hole into the cabin wall. Solifuge throws Frelock off and lurches towards the door. Rysith's next shot takes him square in the side of the head. As dark red blood splatters over the doorframe his body collapses and rolls partway down the steps.

  As you gather around him, you see his body shift into one of those terrible, featureless monsters. He was a doppelganger indeed.

  After satisfying yourself that he is indeed dead, you investigate his house. There you find various military accouterments scattered about. It seems he was a Protector of sorts after all...just not working to help you.

  Breathing a sigh of relief you head out and off to your respective cabins. Two down, two to go.




Ok, Day 3 is over. Night roles, send me your PMs! You have until ~5pm Pacific time Friday, but I appreciate them as soon as you can get them to me.

[Mephansteras]

  The day dawns dreary and damp. A heavy mist hangs over the lake, shrouding it in mystery. As you gather in the large cabin, you see that quite a few people are missing. Frelock, Rysith, Twiggie, and Zaithemaster are all gone.

  You check out their houses. Of Frelock, there is nothing at all. In fact, his cabin is packed up neatly and all of his things seem to be missing. How odd. Twiggie has also dissapeared, although all of his things are still here. A few pieces of bloodstained clothing in his hamper show you that he was a Doppelganger. And, with the various pistols and military gear in the room, it seems he was acting as a Bodyguard for the others. As you take this in, Webadict explains that he was attacked by a doppelganger last night, and saved by that doppelganger being abducted by an alien space ship before his very eyes! He even brings you by to see the claw marks on his door frame and roof!

  As you ponder the likelyhood of this, you check on Rysith. The poor Detective is found dead in his bed, a large blackened hole in his head. Some sort of energy weapon, perhaps.

  Finally, you check on Zaithemaster. In his house you find a shattered window, blood splattered everywhere, and a mostly-headless doppelganger corpse on the ground. Checking around, it seems he, too, was a Detective. Not that it saved him from whoever blew his head off.

 Still, that's four dead or abducted doppelgagners. Looks like the rest of you will get out of this alive after all! Assuming that damn plane company ever finds a plane to pick you up, anyway.



Ok...that's it!

Thanks to Josh for proving that the Ghost is overpowered, especially on Day 2 with an experienced player. We did have a Ghost in round 4, but Frelock didn't die so we didn't get to see anything happen that time.

In any case, we'll get that fixed for next round.

I'll get a new sign-up thread going soon, and we can do some discussion over in the Discussion Thread on changes to the Ghost and anything else we want to do for next round.

I'm heading home, so I'll post the the Night PMs and what not a bit later tonight.

[inaluct]

:I

[Archangel]

Did the agent seeker win? I assume so.

[inaluct]

I think so. He was in contact with me. I'll let him make his own dramatic entrance.

[Org]

Ghost is OP. :I

[Archangel]

I was the agent. CJ told me not to claim to the seeker but I forgot, which could have stuffed this up. The people I checked were, in order of first to last, Inaluct, Alexhas and Webadict.

[Mephansteras]

Oh, yes. The Agent Seeker does win in this Scenario. He silently contacts the Agent afterwords and sneaks out without anyone else officially knowing of his presence.

----------------------------

Starting PMs:

Dopps:

  You four are the doppelgangers. You awoke in a gully, not knowing who or what you were. But you could feel one thing...you had to feed. After searching the area, you found this small cluster of cabins around a lake. After killing four hikers and taking their place, you began to hunt for food. Each night you would pick a victim and kill them. It worked well for a while, but now the humans have caught on. You'll have to keep them from finding who you really are, and let them kill each other. Once the plane comes, you'll be able to leave this backwards little place and explore the wide open hunting grounds of the modern cities.

Org
    You took over the body of a Mad Scientist. He was using his cabin as a secret lab where he was building new inventions to sell to the government. Pick one item from the Mad Scientist inventions list to aid you.
Solifuge
    You took over the body of a Special Forces commando on vacation. You'll be able to use his skills to act as a Protector to guard one of your fellow dopps from a single night-kill each night.
Twiggie
    You also took over the body of a Special Forces commando on vacation, though one not quite as skilled as Solifuge's. You'll be able to use his skills to act as a Bodyguard to guard one of your fellow dopps at night. If he would die, you take his place instead.
Zaithemaster
    You took over the body of a private Detective. You'll be able to investigate one person each night to determine what Role they have. In addition, you seem to have some sort of innate Mind Shield to protect you from Psychic powers.

Go forth, doppelgangers, and slay these pitiful humans.

--

Alexhans (Human)
    You've been vacationing in these cabins for years. As a Telepath, you find that the solitude is a huge relief after the press of minds in more crowded areas. Now, however, you'll have to use your abilities to help find and kill these monsters. Each night you may investigate on person to learn their Goal (Survive, Kill, Find, Protect). Being Psychic, you need to leave your cabin to use this ability, although you can be blocked by a Mind Shield.

--

Archangel (Human)
   Your agency has detected Alien activity in the region. That is why you, an FBI Agent, have been sent here undercover to see what is going on. Now that you've found evidence of Doppelgangers, you'll need to use your knowledge of Xenobiology to help root out these monsters. Each night you may Investigate one player to determine their Race.

--

Frelock (Alien)
    Catching wind of more Doppelgangers being placed on Earth, your species tracked the drop point to this lake. As a Doppelganger Hunter your task is to grab one of these Doppelgangers for study. Other races have started working on this technology, and your people cannot afford to fall behind! Once during the game you may select a player to Abduct at night. You and that player will return to your home system. If it is a doppelganger, you win. If not, you lose. Should you die, you can only hope that the doppelgangers will survive this encounter with the humans so that another hunter can come gather one.

  To aid you in this, you have one item slot to fill from the list of Alien tech.

--

Kashyyk (Human)
    You are a retired Bodyguard. You're old, and a little slow these days. But you think you've got enough in you to try and help out a bit. Each night you may select one player to Protect. If they would die, you'll take their place. It's not much, but it could mean the difference between success and failure against these monsters.

--

NUKE9.13 (Alien)
    Time and again your people have tried to aid the humans against your enemies. As an Agent Seeker, your duty is to find a human Agent and gain access to their government. You've been given a tip that an undercover agent is here, and this secluded lake should give you a perfect opportunity to contact him. Each night you may choose to Contact a player. If that player is the Agent, you will win and head off to work with their government. However, no one else must know of your existence. Therefore, if you contact someone who is not an agent, you must kill them. Be wary, if you should stumble upon a doppelganger it will probably try to kill you. You should be able to kill it, but your life will likely be lost as well against such a powerful foe. Should you fall, you can only hope that the Humans will manage to defeat these monsters on their own. (You win with the town)
   
    To aid you in your mission, you've been given a Mind Shield implant to protect you from Psychics. In addition, you have an item slot you can fill from the list of Alien tech.

--

Okenido (Human)
    In your normal life, you're a Detective in Detroit. This was supposed to be a nice break from the murders and stress of your job. But your skills will be needed, and you'll do what you can to save yourself and everyone else from these monsters. Each night you may investigate another player to determine their Role.

--

Pandarsenic (Human)
    You're a retired War veteran. You got back from Iraq a few months ago, and thought that this trip would be a good chance to get the horrors of war out of your system. No such luck. Now you'll have to turn Aggressive and go hunt down these monsters before they hunt you! Each night you may Kill another player. Choose wisely, as there are only 4 doppelgangers, and you don't want to kill any innocent (and helpful) people.

--

R1ck (Human)
   You are a Mad Scientist. You have been using this cabin as a secret lab where you can build new inventions in peace. Oh, and get them ready to sell to the government, of course. Looks like you'll have to do an early field test to survive this nightmare. Pick one item from the Mad Scientist inventions list to aid you.

--

TheToeBighter98 (Human)
    You have been coming to this nice quiet lake for years to practice your skills as a Psychic Warden in peace. Now, it seems, you'll have to use them to help everyone survive these monsters. Each night you may select another player and Block them from performing any actions that night or the next day. Being Psychic, you don't need to leave your cabin to use this ability, although you can be blocked by a Mind Shield.

--

chaoticjosh (Human)
  Your family has been coming here for years. Now it's turned into some bad sci-fi horror flick! You're just a normal person, so you'll have to use all your wits to survive this nightmare and get out alive.

--

inaluct (Human)
Your family has been coming here for years. Now it's turned into some bad sci-fi horror flick! You're just a normal person, so you'll have to use all your wits to survive this nightmare and get out alive.

--
webadict (Human)
  You came to this lake to commune with nature and to strengthen your Warlock powers. Instead, you've walked into a nightmare. You've been strengthing your ties to nature, and woven a powerful Hex about you. Should anyone kill you, they'll find an even nastier fate will find them in turn. Of course, that's a last resort. In the meantime, you'll have to use your wits to help the town defeat these monsters.

[Mephansteras]

Night 1

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Night 1:
--
Alexhans
    You descend into the trance of the Telepath, sending your thoughts off into the ether. There, you can see the glowing beacons that represent the minds of the other cabinfolk. Seeking out inaluct, you delve deep into his thoughts. There, you can sense a strong desire to Survive.

  Leaving the trance, you spend a few minutes pondering this information. Finally, exhausted, you crawl into bed. Tomorrow will be another long day.

--
 
Archangel   
  Gathering up your surveillance gear, you head off to investigate inaluct. After a few hours of observing him, you decide that he is definitely human. You then head home to snatch a few hours rest.

--

chaoticjosh
  You sit by your fire, mulling over the events of the day. Suddenly, the door bursts open. A gust of wind swirls about the room, sending the fire into a mad flickering dance. Amongst the shifting shadows you see a figure enter, its skin pale and its face utterly blank. It turns its sightless gaze upon you, and opens a mouth full of teeth. Your mind freezes, the horror before you turning your veins to ice. You gaze at it, shaking and terrified as it's claws reach out for you.

  Your death is swift, and the pain is brief.

  You stand there, in the middle of your room, watching this...this thing walk off with your body. You start to tremble again...this time in rage. You cannot let this crime go unpunished! A bright light opens behind you, but you turn away. You shall stay in this world, forever if necessary. Your Ghost shall not sink quietly into the abyss. No, you shall fight on!

  You stare out the window, silent and brooding as you wait for the sun to rise.

--

Frelock 
  You set your Scanner up to analyze inaluct. Satisfied that it has a lock on him, you catch a few hours of sleep while it produces its results.

  The next morning you check the readout. inaluct is a Human Townsperson, and not the Doppelganger you'd hoped for. Still, he may be able to assist you in finding one.
--
           
Kashyyk 
  You take up position near webadict's house, ready to protect him should anyone seek his death tonight. Fortunately, the night is quiet and your services are unneeded.

--

Okenido   
  You head off to Pandarsenic's house. Sneaking a peek through a crack in the shutters you can see him gathering up various military equipment. After a bit he heads out, armed with a shotgun. He appears to be an Aggressive War Veteran heading off to hunt for doppelgangers.

  You quickly move out of sight until he has passed, and head off back home.

--

Org
  As dusk turns to true night you head off to hunt these feeble humans. They may have destroyed that body double of yours, but one at least shall feel your claws before the night is through. Shifting into your true form, you sneak around the lake to chaoticjosh's house. Peering inside, you see him sitting by the fire. He is deep in thought, and does not notice you.

  With a quick kick you break open the door and stride inside. As the sudden burst of wind sends the fire dancing you advance quickly on the cowering human. He barely even raises his hands against you before your claws end his pitiful life. Hefting the corpse over your shoulder you head back out into the night.

  As you walk along the tree-lined path, you sense a presence off in the woods. As you duck behind a tree you hear the blast of a shotgun, and hear it slam into the tree. Then, from behind you comes more gunfire as Solifuge returns fire. As the two soldiers exchange gunfire you sneak off with the corpse into the woods. Once safe, you head off to the clearing where the four of you will share the meal.

--

Pandarsenic 
  Angry at the monsters duplicity with the body double, you decide to finish things yourself. You gear up, grabbing up your pistol, your knife, some ammo, and your trusty shotgun. We'll see how well he does when bullets hit him instead of some robot!

  As you sneak through the woods around the lake you catch sight of a figure moving carefully through the darkness. As it gets closer you recognize Org's clothing! With a growl you snap your shotgun up and fire off a blast. But he was too quick, and ducked behind a tree. As you prepare to circle around you hear gunfire. Bullets snap through the underbrush, and you dive to the ground. Looking around, you see a shadowy figure off in the underbrush behind Org. You fire off another blast of your shotgun and crawl behind a large boulder.

  The two of you exchange fire for a bit, and then the night turns quiet. It appears your attacker has left for the moment. Angry and frustrated, you carefully head back home.

--

R1ck
  Your Snooper bot takes its orders and heads off after Pandarsenic. It is gone for quite some time, but when it returns it reports that he went off to find Org.

  You ponder this information as the sun rises over the lake.

--

Solifuge                       
  You follow after Org, watching carefully for threats. He soon emerges from chaoticjosh's house, a body over his shoulder. Pleased but still concerned, you follow after him as he makes his way around the lake to the meeting spot.

  Suddenly, you spot movement nearby and watch as Org barely dodges behind a tree as a shotgun blast rings out in the night. Furious, you raise your rife and fire a shot off into the underbrush where you'd sensed movement. The attacker ducks down, and you hear another shot. This one aimed at you. You duck down behind a fallen tree and fire off more shots as this mystery attacker.

  You trade shots for a while, as you wait for Org to get safely away. Once he is gone, you silently vanish into the woods. Let his attacker puzzle that one out. For now, you have meat to feed upon.

--

Twiggie
  You follow after Zaithemaster as he investigates R1ck. Fortunately, his mission is uneventful and the two of you head off into woods to join the others for the night's feast.

--
                     
Zaithemaster
  You head off to investigate R1ck. Using your acquired Detective skills, you snoop around his place for a bit. Eventually, you discover a small window shining into a large basement full of strange machinery and workbenches. It appears he is some sort of mad Scientist tinkering down there.

  You ponder this information as you head off to join the others for the night's feast.

[Mephansteras]

Night 2

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Night 2

--

Alexhans
    You descend once again into the trance of the Telepath, sending your thoughts off into the ether. Seeking out Okenido, you delve deep into his thoughts. There, you can sense a strong desire to Find.

  Leaving the trance, you take a little time to ponder this information as you eat a snack before heading off to bed.
--

Archangel
  Gathering up your surveillance gear again, you head off to investigate Alexhans. After a few hours of observing him, you decide that he is definitely human. You then head home to grab something to eat and catch a few hours sleep.

--

Frelock
  As you prepare to perform your abduction of Solifuge you feel a great exhaustion sweep over you. Your limbs shake with weariness, and you barely manage to sit down on the couch before passing out. When you awake, it is with a splitting headache and the knowledge that someone did this to you.

--

Kashyyk
  You follow Pandarsenic for a while, but nothing eventful happens. Eventually, you give up and go home to grab some food and sleep before the next day's trials.

--

Pandarsenic
  You head off quickly to find and kill Twiggie. You move silently through the woods, using all your training to move quickly without being detected. As you approch Twiggie's house you see him leaving his front door. You move to intercept him, raising your shotgun as you slide through the trees. A snap off the left alerts you to another presence, and you dive out of the way as a rifle shot splinters the tree next to you. You fire off a blast of your shotgun at your attacker, but the only thing you hit is branches. You look around, but both your mystery attacker and Twiggie seem to have vanished.

  Frustrated, you find a place to hide out and wait a whlie for Twiggie to return, but fall asleep sometime during the night. Guess your exhaustion is catching up to you. You wake up stiff, the dawn light in your eyes. You head off to change clothes and clean the paint off your face before the day's trials begin.

--

R1ck
  You set your snooper bot out to go follow Webadict. You catch a quick nap, and then check the results. Looks like webadict didn't go anywhere last night. As you plug the bot into its charging station you hear a noise behind you. Looking up, you see a clawed hand reaching for you from a darkened corner of your basement. After a breif moment of panic comes a hot flash of pain, and then darkness.

--

Solifuge
  You agree to protect Twiggie as he goes after R1ck, in case the Scientist has some sort of protection. Turns out Twiggie needed you before that, as you see a crouched figure with a shotgun waiting in the woods outside his house. Unfortunately, you step on a branch as you move into position to fire on him and he manages to duck out of the way. Your shot just splinters against a tree. You see Twiggie vanish off into the woods, and decide to leave his ambusher to stew waiting for him to return. Best not to let Twiggie get to the target's house unprotected. You catch up with him as he goes inside. You watch him through a small window near the ground as he grabs the scientist and rips his troat open. Nice and easy. You two then head off to join Zai for the feast.

--

TheToeBighter98
  You prepare the cabin for the rite of submission. Once your preparations are complete, you use your psychic powers to send out bindings against Frelock. You feel the bonds tighten around him, and you finish the rite. Satisfied that the rite was successful, you head off to bed.

--

Twiggie
  As you head out of your house you hear a gunshot, and you duck around the corner. You hear another, and you can only hope that Solifuge escapes unharmed. In any case, you have a hunt to conduct. You move swiftly off to R1ck's house, and sneak your way down to the basement. You find him plugging some contraption into the wall, and he turns just in time to see your claws reaching for him. His fear...tastes excellent. You lick the blood off your claws, and drag the body back to the empty cabin. Solifuge and Zai join you shortly thereafter. You all dine well that night.
--

Zaithemaster
  You head off to investigate webadict. Using your acquired Detective skills, you stake out his house. You watch him through a window as he performs some strange ceremonies. After watching a bit, you determine that he's a Warlock.

  You ponder this information as you head off to join the others for the night's feast.
