Welcome back to the show!

We had quite a bit happen during the break! Lets show some footage!

First, while visiting the bathroom, Dakarian had an "accident" with a particularly persistant automatic toilet. *cue video of horrific occurences* He flipped Lyncher Audience, by the way, and Pandarsenic flipped Deinonychus.

More related to the actual game, well... show the footage!

*Images of Leafsnail leaning against a wall, relaxing during the break. Suddenly, some lights start to flash, and the wall behind him opens up. Stumbling backwards, he manages to catch himself on the corners and begins pulling himself out. Damn is he persistant. Spikes, however, erupt from the edges, piercing his hands, and with a howl of pain he drops away into the blackness, a grinding sound fills the air, and a spray of blood shoots up the corridor to cover the area nearby.*

Right, I think THAT needs no explanation! Now lets get this rolling, shall we!?

Leafsnail has been killed!

It is now Day 3!

If it makes you feel better, Vector, I've already sent in the kill order.

And if it's Really RedWarrior0, I've drawn the game.

GG, pal.

If it makes you feel better, Webadict, I sent one in before you.

And if it's really RedWarrior0, I, too, have drawn the game.

Suddenly, both contestants realize Leafsnail is gone... dead. They turn to each other, both realizing they must act quickly.

Due to his nature, Vectors gun is drawn and fired in one smooth motion. But the mind is fast than bullets, and webadict merely needs to channel his rage to bring his power to bear. As the bullet leaves his gun, Vector feels a tug at his body as he is sent skyward.

The bullet impacts, and webadict stumbles. As he drops to a knee, the ivory mask falls from his face to reveal a disfigured man with cold blue eyes. As the lifeblood leaks from his body, he hears a ripping sound...

Vector lands in the organ grinder, a device much like a giant leaf mulcher, but on fire. Pieces of him go flying everywhere.

As Webadict gasps for breath and his lungs fill with blood, a voice comes on over the loudspeaker.

"And that's game, folks! Thank you all for attending! If you want souvenirs, head down to the floor."

The audience chats amicable amongst themselves, some a bit worse for wear having had their own adventures during the intermission in the other entertainment complexes the facility provides, but all three very much alive.

RedWarrior looks down at the still struggling webadict. "Hey, this one is still alive!"

The host steps up beside him. "Ah, yes... a persistant fellow, this one. Third time returning champion. I guess he wins this one as well, though it doesn't look like he'll survive it." Angry, webadict tries to focus his mind, but the host leans down behind him. "Oh, don't struggle so much... your powers won't work on me now." Glyphgryph says, standing. He turns to the others, says something witty, and the others begin to laugh, but already the world is fading.

Turning back, glyphgryph slams the knife down into webadicts chest, and leans to his ear to whisper a few final words. "By the way, I was the scum."


Vector, town, has been killed!
Webadict, town, has been killed!

Scum Victory! Host and Audience wins!

Audience Chat /Scum Chat (Though note most of this communication went on via PM so theres not much there): http://www.quicktopic.com/43/H/Mt8umt8RW9Lf


Roles, Descriptions, Letters:

Vector:
As you explore the building, horrible clown faces looming in the shadows overhead, the lights start to turn on one by one. You jump a little, but keep your cool, carefully watching... "Ah, a visit-" you turn and fire, cutting the robed man off as a bullet slams into his face. The eerie ivory mask chips and a large crack goes from the top to the bottom. "-or." he continues, seemingly unphased. You fire off three more shots, each of them slamming into his body, but as he stands watching you feel your legs turning to jelly, and the air getting thick and hard to breathe. "A feisty one..." he says as your vision fades. "I like the feisty ones."

And now you've woken up, in a large arena, with several other people all looking disoriented as well. A voice whispers behind you, and you jump before realizing a small earbud is resting in your ear, and the voice is coming from that.

"Welcome to the arena. You'll notice that your memory has been wiped, for the most part, so I'll give you a brief overview of what you'll be doing today. One amongst these players is a member of blue team... the scum team, if you will. All others are a member of red team. If the blue scum dies, all surviving reds go home. If the red team is killed, the blue scum gets to live and return home. Your memories are returned to you whichever team you end up being on. Anyways, you don't actually KNOW what team you are on, though there are hints that will help you figure out anyone's alignment if you but look hard enough..."

Quickly checking your hip, you are comforted to know that your revolver is still there. Shielding it from the other players, you look down and notice that though your trusty sidearm is by your side, you only have one bullet left...

You are...
Amnesiac Investigator with a Happy Trigger Finger

Alignment: Unknown

Ability 1: Last Bullet You may kill a target as a one time action at any time, day or night. This is visible to other players.
Ability 2: Investigate Once per day/night cycle you may investigate a target's alignment.

Your letter is: N

Leafsnail:
As you wander into the building, bumping off of shadowed boxes and taped off areas, large signs that say under construction, and what looks like a boxing ring, a shiver goes down your spine. Suddenly, you see a man in a robe wearing a white mask with a grinning face. "Ah, a visitor. I must admit, you weren't expected quite yet. But, then... you'll do. Yes, you'll do nicely..." As you jump back, preparing to run, you hear the sound of gas escaping beneath your feet, and you vaguely remember falling...

And now you've woken up, in a large arena, with several other people all looking disoriented as well. A voice whispers behind you, and you jump before realizing a small earbud is resting in your ear, and the voice is coming from that.

"Welcome to the arena. You'll notice that your memory has been wiped, for the most part, so I'll give you a brief overview of what you'll be doing today.

Anyways, you don't actually KNOW what team you are on, though there are hints that will help you figure out anyone's alignment if you but look hard enough..."

Your letter is: O

Webadict
You don't remember who you are, or where you came from, or what you're doing here. But you're dressed in some sort of weird dark robe and ivory mask, and a voice is speaking into your ear.

"Welcome to the arena. You'll notice that your memory has been wiped, so I'll give you a brief overview of what you'll be doing today. One amongst these players is a member of blue team... the scum team, if you will. All others are a member of red team. If the blue scum dies, all surviving reds go home.

Anyways, you don't actually KNOW what team you are on, though there are hints that will help you figure out anyone's alignment if you but look hard enough... By the way, to make things more interesting, I've dressed you in a silly outfit."

Amnesiac Mysterious Stranger

Ability 2: Unknown (Mind Probe - You may view the full text of another persons role)

You may use one of ability 2, 3, or 4 each day/night cycle. Not all abilities necessarily target another player, but call a target when you use them just in case. Ability 1 is automatic, and does not require a target. Using an ability will reveal it.

Your letter is: S

The Overseer:
The Victim, Scum Puppet
Alignment: Town
Ability: If two players vote you, you are immediately killed.

You not have control of your body! The scum are using you as a tool to sow chaos, and you can't do a thing to stop it... and you fear that as soon as your usefulness is exhausted, they are going to simply cast you aside...

Your letter is: C

Rysith
A long investigation has brought you here, to this place. Finally, you can bring everything together. You knock on the door and flash your warrant to the camera that turns in your direction. The door clicks, but as you go to turn the handle the floor drops out beneath you, dumping you harshly onto a cold stone floor. Looking up, you see a grinning ivory mask, cracked just below the left eye. "Welcome. We've been waiting for you for quite a while. Are you ready to play." As you collect yourself to prepare a response, you feel your lungs seize up, and you notice a gas is entering the room through several holes in the floor. Soon, you fade into blackness...

And now you've woken up, in a large arena, with several other people all looking disoriented as well. A voice whispers behind you, and you jump before realizing a small earbud is resting in your ear, and the voice is coming from that.

"Welcome to the arena. You'll notice that your memory has been wiped, for the most part, so I'll give you a brief overview of what you'll be doing today.

I know... I went "Hm, I have a gun that emptied its first 5 bullets into Webadict.  Clearly, the last one wants to go into Webadict, too, but it wouldn't kill him if the first 5 didn't.  So we need to find out how to KWN..." but noooo, we were supposed to kill the host, hey?
