first trial

[Once you make your way to the portrait gallery, Facilier's snarky voice chimes in as per usual.]

One of you folks actually went and did it. Not surprised: they always do. Besides, if you were gonna kill someone, the grandma ain't a bad start. Figure it this way: how many of you actually liked her?

[Suddenly, the whole room seems to move downwards. The walls get longer, and the ceiling grows further away from you. The portraits themselves seem to extend, as the room moves downwards at a startling pace.]

Things are not always as they seem, gentlemen. Can it be this room is actually stretching? And notice this: this chamber has no windows and no doors, which offers you this chilling challenge… to find a way out. Of course, there’s always our way.

[Suddenly, the floor stops. A new door opens at the side of the room.

Inside is what appears to be an old voodoo shop, covered in various artifacts and an unsettling large voodoo head at the back of the room. There is a summoning circle painted into the floor with a deep red paint. Each of you has a place within this circle, with a wooden podium marked with your room number waiting for you there. Podium 26 has a single candle lit aflame, as well as what appears to be a voodoo doll of Madame Mim stuck to the top of it.

Light music plays in the background.

Once you all take your place, Facilier himself appears within the middle of the circle, out of a cloud of smoke.]


You're here to figure out who did this. Once you have a hunch, you can feel free to write it down on the podium in front of you, but there are no takebacks. Majority rules, and your participation is mandatory.

'Course, you have all the time you need, if you want it.

...Th-That doesn't s-s-s-sound very g-good.

[guess who's shaking like a leaf, trying to hide behind his podium]

Maybe she was playin' with somebody. And whoever lost the game just got real mad.

[People do that, right? Flip tables and stuff when they lose? He's not so sure about bashing people's heads in over a game, but knowing this group...]

Don't mistake me, I find her detestable and freakish.

But I can't argue with her magical capabilities.

[Leia grimaces, but leans forward to see what those bits are.]

Wax? From the mannequins?
psychopinesis: (what the hell?)

[What the fuck dude?]

And if we all vote for you?

Of kriffing course.

I hadn't thought it'd take so long, myself. We all clearly have a high tolerance for nonsense.
not_over_yet: (thinking)

[personal profile] not_over_yet 2018-01-20 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Was there anyone here she frequently gambled with?

[ Not likely it'll that easy, but. Worth a shot.
pinkflip: (open up and let me be)

[personal profile] pinkflip 2018-01-20 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
H-hey, no way! We're not killing anyone, that's nuts!

What?! That's unfair!

[Everyone getting punished with death, he means]

[girl get some sleep]

As barbaric as I'd expected.
tanukey: (sarcasm)

[personal profile] tanukey 2018-01-20 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
You heard of any kinds of death that don't?
pinkflip: that is all the time you got to make your point (seven seconds‚ seven seconds)

[ A squeeze to Jane's shoulder. Oh, honey. Kim's glaring daggers at Facilier, but...she doesn't have a lot to...reassure- ]

I don't want to either, Jane, but...I don't think he's going to let us leave until we do.
faciliheir: (and crooks in our necks)

[personal profile] faciliheir 2018-01-20 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
That is true. And she wasn't shy about using her powers, either. She either got the chance to fight back, or whoever did it got the jump on her.

White, I didn't take note of how long. I do recall that her curse forced her to take the form of some "old coot" she definitely didn't care for at all.
bayoublues: (uh oh)

[personal profile] bayoublues 2018-01-20 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
......No.
tanukey: (hey I'm grump)

...

[He's throwing a chunk of bloody wax at your head. Just to be petty.]
hasit: (13)

[personal profile] hasit 2018-01-20 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
There was a trail of blood droplets between the kitchen and the wax museum, cutting through the foyer. There was clearly some movement last night.
sorrydoods: (That's...not good)

[personal profile] sorrydoods 2018-01-20 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...maybe? I've seen people flip tables over losing games, but...not murdering anyone.

[He's now praying that that's not what happened.]
lostbutnotaboy: (Try)

[personal profile] lostbutnotaboy 2018-01-20 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
It didn't seem like anyone would want to try.
hasit: (04)

[personal profile] hasit 2018-01-20 05:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Then perhaps the beard hairs were...her own. Torn off in a struggle?

There are better ways to solve problems than murder.

[And he knows that's a bullshit thing to say here, now, in this murder house. But like... he still thinks that's true. You can and in fact should attempt to solve problems via means other than murder.]
not_over_yet: (...are you still here?)

[personal profile] not_over_yet 2018-01-20 05:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Being forced to participate in this "blood ritual" to begin with isn't fair.

[ Just. Y'know. As a reminder. ]
