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.

[ How's the younger Facilier holding up? Just. Quick check.

Maybe that's normal for undead. Or she doesn't care. Are things fine over here because Basil's a bit alarmed and he's not related to the guy...

[you know when you've mentally come to terms with the fact that this time clone is not actually your dad but your emotions haven't caught up and either way seeing him literally fall apart is super fucked up???

TFW amirite this is something every teen deals with]

[ ...

Scramble down his podium and up Ariel's. He can't do anything... at least not right now... but he'll stand there in case that's helpful somehow? That's how. Grief works right. Probably.

[when she notices him there she just kinda. glares at him?]

Merely checking on the two of you, all this is bound to have distressed for Miss Ariel...? Bit... much. For her.

[ CAN HE ACKNOWLEDGE ARIEL'S EMOTIONS THO it's a perfect way to cover for yourself Freddie, go go ]

[ah yes. Ariel's Emotions. yes.]

She's. Fine. Once we get out of this room. It's fine.

[narrator: it was not fine]
