Murder Mysterium - Day 5

Who: You!
Where: The Game Tower
When: TBD - Day 5

[ When morning comes, you find yourselves more than freed from your rooms—the mansion collapses behind the last person leaving, completely and utterly demolished. There might be a couple rooms left standing, but . . . you certainly can't have a murder mystery game like this.

The game isn't quite over yet, though.

You may access the twin garden mazes, encouraged, even—there are alcoves in the gardens with flowers wrapping around the gates that are to your unit's color, and upon entering them you'll be able to speak to your unitmates without fear of being overheard, as though there were some sort of soundproofing barrier. You may only enter your unit-specific alcove. There are also plenty of other non-unit specific alcoves for you to enter and converse with someone, but it won't be entirely private—these pockets don't have soundproofing. Players should comment to relevant private threads that are being eavesdropped.

But before you run off to discuss—


You'll want to gather around the fountain.

Its water's stopped, though rather than any stillness in water you can instead see . . .

The details of each murder, as well as the rules, are available on your phones, and in fact, that and the photos app are the only things you can access on your phone right now. Your powers are off too, although you were allowed to bring whatever items are ordinarily on your person—provided they aren't any weapons. ]

No way, no way! Leaders get all their intel from accountants. And then they mess it up, because outside of the one in a million all around great guy who's going to get backstabbed by a sniveling underling or crushed by the weight of their obligations or are murdered along with roughly two hundred other way more dangerous leaders - they're all really short-sighted. Once the hubris sets in it takes a talented individual to not focus on one relatively tiny immediate goal while ignoring every other data point around them that forms a giant flashing red sign that says DEAD END.

And then they die! Sometimes after ruining countless lives and leaving a mess that requires generations to repair! Because they simplified the numbers down to "kill people I don't like, get good things I do like"!

Leaders are merchants for life and death, not accountants. They don't keep track of these things, they just deal in them and try to make the best profit they can.
