Day 3: And there goes the suspicious...

[shanic]

Day 3

*hic*

"I...saw a lady last night...hee...and she kissed me!" The man took another swig from his flask. "Yeah...that's the ticket..." The Sailor paused to collect his thoughts before pointing at one person. "And it was her! A reeeeal fine lady...but that's okay, 'cause we had...we had an agreement..."

*hic*

The crowd stared at Ringo, unable to make heads or tails out of his nonsensical ramblings. Collectively, they decided to put him out of his misery.

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

"I mustn't run away...I mustn't run away...hell with that, I didn't sign up for this shit..." The Historian looked around, fearful of everyone who approached, yet still undeniably fascinated by everything. Unlike everyone else, he was only here to have fun and learn things.

Learn things he would, as a peculiar sound echoed down the street. Fearful, he immediately started running, but the sound was overtaking him, second by second. Sparing a glance behind, he saw something that chilled his bones. A Horse Archer, astride his faithful steed, galloped down the road towards him.

REG Rysk fell to his knees, screaming, "I'm harmless! Please don't kill me!" It was to no avail, as the archer loosed one shaft that connected center mass and kept his steed riding by the toppling body.

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

The Surgeon muttered a curse. One of the crowd, a Performer, had seemed listless all day. He took her aside to a more secluded area for treatment, but she didn't seem to be getting much better. There didn't seem to be anything he could do for her, not with where his skills lay.

Unfortunately, the need for quiet while he worked would be his downfall that day. The team of infiltrators burst into the hut he had chosen, cruel, shining metal weapons at the ready. Delmain whirled, bringing his wooden and stone tewha tewha to bear. He knew it was unlikely he would be able to defend cj iwakura in the end, but he was from a proud warrior culture and his assailants would know that they had been in a fight.

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

The Prophet walked the streets of the town, speaking of the future, warning those would listen of evil deeds yet to occur. Most were preoccupied, but one followed her, listening keenly to her words.

"Yes, I hear your words, sister. They have the ring of truth." DevoutlyApathetic glanced at the man, risking a small smile. "Truly? But wait, you--"

*shunk*

The man eased her to the ground, his eyes shining with devotion. "Yes, truly. I always listen to His words and do His duty."

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

The Dead:
cj iwakura - Investor | South African Dutch Colonist Performer - defenseless
Delmain - Investor | Maori Surgeon - blaze of glory
DevoutlyApathetic - Investor | Berber Prophet - silenced
REG Rysk - Lottery Winner | Navajo Historian - pincushioned
Ringo - Investor | Ezo Sailor - DRUUUUUUUUUUUNKS

Day 3 begins NOW and ends at 11PM EST on Thursday.

As I mentioned earlier, feel free to sacrifice me if needed. Suspicions are on me.

Also, that's one more kill than was there yesterday. It also seems that the block on Grumpy did not go through - the gender could have not matched up, he could have been the odd day vig only (if it's broken up like that), or he could have been lying.

Besides Ringo, what were our Day 1 roleblocks on again? A Vig appearing means they were previously role blocked, guarded, or inactive and forgot to put orders in.

[lucedes]

Or they've got an even-day and an odd-day vig, just like we have even and odd roleblockers.

[shanic]

So, before I start, I swore I saw cj post more than once. Either way, that he was a performer and a woman leads me to believe he was as I originally guessed, a role blocker for men. Not a bad kill, and lightens the constant switching out at least (though I suspect that plays more to our advantage than theirs).

Delmain...nun, surgeon...maybe we've hit guards?

DA - Prophet? Maybe he was responsible for some of the text we've been seeing. There was no text in the narration, so good chance it was either The Anonymous or him, given that he was roleblocked. SK brought him down. How odd.

REG was undeniably the survivor win condition I spoke of. (EDIT:...IN MY MIND! I was going to post about him in the thread, then decided to change it. Oops.) No idea on the historian power - mechanics seer/player seer? Might be able to look up people's past lives. And one of the people possibly suspicious of him in the thread was a village vig.

And Ringo having turned up a drunk sailor means his proclamation about his role were true. Good chance Dunadan really does have a "random" ability. How odd.

What did your seer turn up lucades, and what was your question/answer simulacrum?

[lucedes]

Phyphor is an "Irish Priest of the Morrigan." Fuck if I know what it does, though. This Haberdashery is not incredibly helpful.

Wikipedia:

"he Morrígan ("terror" or "phantom queen") or Mórrígan ("great queen") (also known as Morrígu, Morríghan, Mor-Ríoghain, sometimes given in the plural as Morrígna) is a figure from Irish mythology who appears to have once been a goddess, although she is not explicitly referred to as such in the texts.

She is associated with sovereignty, prophecy, war, and death on the battlefield. She sometimes appears in the form of a crow, flying above the warriors, and in the Ulster cycle she also takes the form of an eel, a wolf, and a cow. She is generally considered a war deity comparable with the Germanic Valkyries, although her association with cattle also suggests a role connected with fertility, wealth, and the land."

Perhaps Phyphor is an SK? Morrigan sounds batshit crazy. Murderin' crazy. Sacrificial knife murderin' crazy?

[shanic]

And yeah, my guess is even-day vig and odd-day vig. And the vig that went in today was a man.

[lucedes]

Phyphor might be a guard, for all I know.

[shanic]

He's someone I'd like to kill this evening, in either case.

[lucedes]

:/

mafia slipup

visible for a second

vaguely grammatically implied that i wasn't an investor?

argh, the tedium.

[lucedes]

also, i'm trying to figure out what phyphor is.

i have nothing to lose, assuming i'm just a vanillager or neutral-trying-to-survive with a shitty power.

even if phyphor's the sk, i'm a last-priority target.

[shanic]

Remember that you claimed to have a "fluff" power in the thread when you approach him.

[shanic]

I'm not sure how orange will show up here, but Spectrum:

If you target someone with a role block and they are odd/even day (and thus had nothing to block), will they be informed they were role blocked?

[lucedes]

Holy shit, he's sort of a really-watered-down Mirror Empath. Claims to have been unsuccessful so far, though. Good news!

"That's right. No real reason to keep it a secret I guess. I target a player, if they die to something other than the vote I collect their ability and can choose to use it. Sort of a role collector/aggregator I guess. No luck so far.

I don't know if it's gender dependent, nothing was mentioned about it in the role PM."

[shanic]

I stand that it's something I'd like to kill, but that also means it's not a guard or SK, so less of a priority.
