The Rules

--Votes should be in bold. Vote: Fallen, for example. Please unvote if necessary. Unvote, Vote: Fallen, for example. Votes that aren’t formatted like this could easily slip past and not be counted. So please, make the extra effort.
--Feel free to point out mistakes in the vote counts if/when I make them. But be polite about it.
--Lynches require a majority of votes. Unvotes after a player reaches majority do not count. You may vote No Lynch; a majority of votes for no lynch will end the day without a death.
--I may choose to set a deadline should activity be low. If activity picks up, I may or may not retract it. If a deadline is not retracted a majority of placed votes is required at the deadline to achieve a lynch.
--Twilight posting is allowed, but not preferred. If you realize there has been a lynch, please try not to post. The person being lynched may not post during Twilight.
--The game is not to be discussed outside of the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so.
--Once you’re dead, you may post once along the lines of “Go Celest!” But, you may not make posts with any relevant or game-related content.
--You ay not quote any PM’s from me.
--The deadline for night choices will be 72 hours.

The Masquerade

Black smoke rose from the Megalith of Doom, and the presence of both Fain and Raezon could be felt in the air. Darkness was gathering on the horizon, and rumors spread like wildfire across the military channels of Celest. What to expect, no one was sure, but everyone thought they were ready for anything that the Taint could throw at them.

As night fell on the Basin, the trouble began. A cherub’s cry alerted the defenders who surrounded the pool of just where exactly they would be put to the test.

Those available were rallied by members of Terentia’s Order; both Celestians and Serens alike quickly surrounded the sparkling waters of the Pool of Stars and within moments, they were ready. And within another, they found themselves ascending the planar pathways and heading for Holy Celestia.

But that was when things only grew worse.

An explosion of foul, tainted fumes and Nil-borne magic erupted around the defenders as they stepped out onto the pristine landscape. And then it all went black.

Now coming awake, the thirteen of you look from one to the other. Something is clearly wrong. Memories of each other have grown blurry, and all you seem to have is vague recollections of appearance. And the cries of the Supernals only increase the sickness in the air.

“We are lost!” came the shouts. “Darkness everywhere!”

The Supernals are nowhere to be found; cracked and rotting pillars in place of once beautiful monuments, and all gates leading to and from Celestia have been sealed, the horrendous image of the Red Masque shinning in the air.

But where were the raiders? What had happened? Once again, you look around the circle of those who had arrived with you, but the first question asked is, quite simply “How do we get home?”

Hours of work produce nothing, and as night falls, the you all attempt at least a few hours of sleep. But there is no such luck.

A scream awakens the you just before dawn, bringing you the sight of Munsia, Champion of Hartstone, crucified within the Greater Pentagram that had been erected.

There could only be one answer: amongst you were hidden the Magnagoran raiders, and through the magic of Fain and Raezon, a Masquerade had begun, that could lead to the fall of Celest itself should the divinely disguised Tainted make it back to Prime.

Now, if only you could figure out who your enemies are—perhaps a trip to the Fates would bring them back into their own.

Welcome to Day 1!

Wow. That would suck if this actually happened in game. I hope Fain doesn't get any ideas. Anyway, let's get down to business, shall we?

Well, I'm not quite shure what to say in responce, so I'm going to vote for Azael.
VOTE: AZAEL
Unknown2006-05-27 12:13:38
I find it really amusing that Munsia is an NPC. I vote: Cow!

Actually I'll random vote: Daganev because he's at the top of the list and it continues the nice pattern.
Hazar2006-05-27 13:14:26
Vote: Tsaephai

Because his answer reeked of insecurity.
Unknown2006-05-27 14:06:49
Tekora randomly voted for me... but then Tsaephai too? Aww....

Well, whatever. VOTE TSAEPHAI
I'll probably withdraw this later.
Unknown2006-05-27 14:07:29
I will with hold my vote for the time being.
Unknown2006-05-27 14:35:42

Truely though, what are you supposed to say to a random vote? You can't counter any arguements because there is no reason they are voting for you, and roleclaiming is a bad idea unless nesicary, which I hardly judged one vote nesicary. Therefore I tried to vote on someone to get information on them because a group of votes is a reason to roleclaim, whereas only one vote means nothing.
At the current standings it looks like I will be the one to have to roleclaim, or atleast provide reason why I shouldn't be killed, but I'm not going to until it's nesicary because I don't want to meaninglessly give out information to the scum. The scum already know that we're not scum, they just don't know what we can do.(I'm assuming everyone can do something this game? I have a rather useless privledge, and I'm pretty shure it'd not be put into the game unless it's a game where everyone gets a role?)

We're still on page one...I remember games where we got 5 pages in before deciding on a lynch. LoL. Don't get carried away JUST yet.
Unknown2006-05-27 15:13:31
Azael, you messed up the voting order. It should have been you next. I demand that you either vote for yourself, or let someone else vote for you and then Daganev before you vote for Tsaephai. tweak.gif I'm not OCD....

I love Cyanide and Happiness. Especially the short animations.

Forren, any reason why your voting? I'm gunna assume its a random vote, for now.

Tsaephai makes a good point... how does his answer reek of insecurity, Hazar? How can you react to a first turn vote?

I'm curious how you would.
UNVOTE, VOTE HAZAR
