"I understand and respect your oppinion, Layjith, but nevertheless, I ask you to reconsider. Why do you find Aerych guilty of yesterday's murder? Is it only because of rumours about his past? Because his Nagarythe heritage?
You should consider, that bond between you and your sister, surely stronger that blood ties with any other of us, might be clouding your judgement.
What is it that you say about Aerych's brother? I'm not familliar with this story, as are probably many of us, so maybe you should share it? If its just a rumour, you surely understand it's not enough to kill a man for!"

"It is something I've learnt of recently about him and his family. It seems he was raised as an Asur, taught our ways and the such. The rest of his family were Asur like us. Then one day he learnt that he was a Druchii he slew his own brother in cold blood. He is stealthy, wicked and one of the treacherous Witch Kings agents. Unless he can truely dsimiss this which I doubt I know he guilty. For some of you it may be a rumour but for me it's more, my sources are reliable, very reliable, infact they have been yet to fail me when I ask for them. For me this is reason to incriminate him. Look at him, he barely speaks and when he does it's all of malice and hate. He has shared little other than to try and incriminate my sister. Yes you are right, our bond is strong as any other would be between kin not that you would understand that Aerych, but it does not cloud my judgement. Whether related by blood or not I am more than able of making decisions on my own accord."

"Haha, Layjith, you're such an ass." Aerych said. "You are basing your accusations on mere rumours against me?" He continued, a mocking tone lacing his voice.

"I can tell you I am not here to make a bid to the throne, I do not need nor want the wealth attached to being a heir to Lord Saleith. What I can tell you is the truth inside your rumours. No, I am not the spawn of Druchii. Yes, I did slay my own brother. My brother was a filthy traitor and a secret agent of the Witch King. He deserved his death by the tip of my arrow. On the first night we stayed at this mansion your filthy sister tried to murder me so yes I will stay on this tyrade until she pays for that pathetic action in her own blood." Aerych said, calm and cold.

"If we all believed the rumours we have heard, we would be in a fine mess. Since I have come to this place I have heard that Ishneia and Lajith are having an incestuous relationship, that Hjorych lies with animals, that I am a stable boy, that Aerych cannot so much as draw his bow, that at least 2 standing here are murderers. I can attest to the falsity of one, and sincerely doubt a number of the others. The servants here, it seems, are prone to flights of fancy.

As for murder attempts, I think it is safe to say that Hylar did try to kill Hjorych, and failed. Apparently he was not the killer of Shiadril though. So who was? Not, I assume, Hjorych, as he was in bed when the attempt was made on his life.

The main suspects seem to be Aerych and Ishneia, but in both cases for strange reasons. Even if Ishneia did try to kill Aerych, it does not mean she killed Shiadril. Politics are a murky thing, and kinship also, but I hope it is not true that she did so. Ishneia, did you try to kill Aerych? I do not accuse you of Shiadril's murder.

Aerych is being accused becuase of a rumour? He says he killed his brother, a Druchii spy. I f so, it is a gallant, selfless and no doubt difficult act. Did your rumour tell a different story?"

"I will say this one last time I did not try to kill Aerych. To me it seems that he is tryng to cover up something. Perhaps he accused me of trying to kill him while on the first night here he murdered Shiadril. Aerych was the first to speak that morning and his acussation was the first spoken. Maybe he is not a killer and is merely trying to kill of another person ho would claim the Lord's inheritance. And I will make one other thing very clear I do not have an incestuous relationship with my brother. I have no idea what sick mind came up with that rumour."

"A true liar to the core. I do most certainly hope those lies of yours will be your end, Ishneia. However, I do not think many of these rumours are true nor shall I base my assumptions on them. My prime suspects are still Hjorych, for his attitude and temper, and Ishneia, for the failed attempt she made on my life. The latter seems more convincing as I am doubtful about whether Hjorych actually has the brain to get away with it."

"My decision is not based solely on those my rumours and I stand by my decision, obviously it is not enought to convice the rest of you yet but that cannot be helped. I have stated earlier my other reasons for suspicion. What matters more is that a unanimous be reached before the night falls. You all know where I stand today and I hope that those who are yet to speak or vote do so before it is too late. As it is currently all three who have been voted for stand for death unless there are more voted to differentiate between them.

"Brother as it appears that the others are reluctant to vote I believe I must change my vote. If you are so convinced of Aerych's guilt I shall support you for you are my brother as well as for my own safety's sake, as it seems Miriernar is not going to garner any votes but mine at this time. I hope that he does not try to strike again this night if he is allowed to live but the blood he may spill will not be on my hands."
Unvote Mirienar

Vote Aerych

*the servants enter the room quietly to serve refreshments, as they leave you can hear them muttering something about Aerych, appearently he only carries the bow to distance himself from the tannery wich he works, in reality he does not know one end from the other*

Yesterday we killed Hylar, a man who later turned out to be an assassin albeit an incompetent one. He was a killer none the less yet Aerych was the only one to defend him. You've thrown around accusations of attempts on your life and tried to have several people hanged yet you are the one defending a killer. Perhaps you were in league with our late friend Hylar and you were attempting to save his life so that you two might kill us all in our sleep and steal the inheritance. Perhaps it was you who killed Shiadril after your accomplice Hylar failed. Either way my suspicions have been ever present since your defence of Hylar yesterday and there was never any doubt in my mind what I would do today.

vote: Aerych

"Oh please Thir, at least get your facts straight before you accuse me. I've only tried to get 1 person dead and that is the one that tried to assassinate me.

You're not the same girl I knew in my childhood, Thir. It seems your manly disguise has taken that away."
Aerych said, a bit disappointed by his childhood friend.

"Or wait, should I call you Sarthill, like your name used to be?" Aerych added before shutting up again and waiting for a reply.

What are you saying, Aerych?! Thir, what's he talking about? Can someone explain what's going on?

And you, rest of you! Why the hell do youstay silent in face of important matters? Only few votes have been cast! What, you don't care who lives and who dies? Or do you try to hide your own wrongdoings? There are more poteintial assassins among us, so state your oppinion, not letting them hide among those silent.

"I want none of you dead really, and nothing said has made me think Aerych or Ishneia killed Shiadril. I believe that perhaps Aerych is telling the truth about the attempt on his life, and if the servants who were just here are right, he may not be able to defend himself if it happens again. So I can see why he votes for her despite the lack of any evidence for her killing Shiadril.

So who to give this vote for? It will probably not matter today. It could as easily be Thir or Mirienar as either of those being accused, or indeed any of you others. That there is a murderer among us does not surprise me, I would imagine more than one of you have got to where you are over the bodies of former allies. I do not know any of you well enough to condemn you to death as is. However, that Ishneia attempted murder and was caught in the act, I do believe. Her accusation of Mirienar may be true, but may be a desperate act to save herself. And so, I shall vote for her to die, for, that is, at least, a little justified."

Vote: Ishneia (Cidracin)

End of day 3
As night falls you all gather around Aerych who looks at you spitefully

'sons and daughters of whores! Spitefull bastards! I've fought my entire life to protect kin and our country, yet I am betrayed by some power hungry political bickerers! May Morai-Heg take you all!'

He appears to be about to speak more, but he is interrupted by the daggers you plunge into him, one by one till the valiant naggarythe falls dead in a pool of his own blood, as the night before the lord of the manor whispers a soft incantation over the dead body before proclaiming:

Aerych was an Asur, a would be murderer who had attempted murder twice! But he had failed on both accounts, you are yet to find Shiadrils murderer!

ooc:
It is now -night- those of you with special abilities, who want to use them may send me a PM, for the rest of you: Quiet time.

List of lives lost:
Aerych: Murdered by his fellows on day 3.
Kerion Morningsun: Broke his neck on the stairs day 2.
Hylar Sureshot: Murdered by his fellows day 2.
Shiadril: strangled to death night 1

So far: No druchii, just bitchy greedy high elves.

Once more the mansion is bathed in the soft golden colours of the rising sun, but this morning everyone know something is different, the talk of the servants about Thir (Prince Elileth) appearently being so incompetent that his tutors persuaded him to seek the inheritance, just so that they could get rid of him, recieves only brief passing consideration.

Instead, each guest move towards Lady Ishneia's chambers where a chambermaid just screamed from, as you arrive you see lady Ishneia in a pool of her own blood, a foul smelling wine next to her, the initials M and S carved into her delicate flesh, obviously after her death...

OOC:
It is now day please vote one amongst you to death. You have the usual 48 hours, I expect every single player in the DaU to make at least one post, inactives will suffer... accidents.

Alive:
Layjith Highvale (The Darkness): Merchant.
Thir Greenleaf (Prince Elileth): Conjurer
Moryth Shimmermist (Paraicj): Caledorian
Mirienar D’nyss (Khar): goldsmith
Hjorych (Andruillius/Lethalis): Minor noble

Deceased:
Hylar Sureshot (Illidan Hellforge): Murdered by his fellows.
Kerion Morningsun (Allerion): Fell down the stairs on day.
Aerych Glimmervale (NoOodle): Stabbed to death by his fellows.
Shiadril Gloamingmist (Prince_Asuryan): Strangulated.
Ishneia Highvale (cidracin): Poisoned.

"So, our little politician is dead. Killed, I think, by her own brother. Why, I am not sure. I went to Ishneia's room last night to discuss the politics of the situation, judging her the most ruthless of you all and therefore the most likely to fall in line with my plans. As I reached the door, I noticed Mirienar was also there, perhaps with the same reason in mind, perhaps something more nefarious, who am I to judge?

In any case, our meetings never occurred, for who scurried furtively out of her room but Layjith, the revered merchant.

I thought at the time that perhaps he was merely talking to her, but I fear now that much worse was done by his hand. A pity. I voted for her to be killed yesterday, but I believe in terms of machinations at court, she would have been at least the equal of any of us, even myself.

Layjith, can you explain why you were in your sister's room last night? I know there have been unsavoury rumours about the two of you, but I doubt they are true!"

"Politics? Is that what you call drawn daggers? I was there to visit my sister and talk about the inheritence. I was willing to back her if she made a claim for it. I already possess a considerable wealth from my business. The fact that you would consider such a deed from her own brother apalls me. What piurpose could I possibly have for murdering my own sister. I was there for no wrong deeds as for you and Mirienar who both happened to be silently waiting outside of the room with what looked surprisingly like weapns to me. Not only that but were you there for a meeting than why may I ask why you didn't simply knock and enter or go in once I had left. I assure yu my sister was well and truely alive when I entered the room."

Layjith paused before ushering to a servant for a drink.

"Yet again like I say I was there to discuss the inheritence, nothing more nothing less. And for those rumours I might aswell put them to a rest now. We never had a relationshi like the ones they propose. One of my rival merchants began to spread them in an attempt to ruin my business. I could never hurt my sister though. Never. She is of my own blood. The fact you pint your finger at me is a disgrace, does it help alleviate any guilt you hold? Well? I am a merchant, not a murderer. I'd barely even know how to weild one of those weapons let alone kill someone. Why do you think I took up the life of a merchant? Does that answer your questions for I am not a guilty man my friend.

Ha! Plot thickens! You see, gentelmen, I have to admit something: Last night, there were to attempts at my life. Both failed. I never managed to recognize one of would be murderers, but the second one... Yes, it was Ishneia.

And what do I see next day? She accuses me of murder! 'Fine' I tought 'Let's have it your way' - I kept quiet about her trying to murder me, and decided to, maybe, gather some evidence next night. I tought, that maybe Aerych was right and she DID try to murder him too. So it was safe to assume that she'll try to kill someone for te third time. So, here I am, hiding outside her room, waiting for her to come out and... well' that's one hell of a commotion for sleeping woman's room... I saw both of you there.

BUT. Let's sey I believe Moryth, that he really did mean to talk to her. It's not that unrealistic. Also, I don't really believe that Layjith could just murder his own ister. Inheritance matters aside, I think that if he started killing, one of us would be much better candidate than her.

So what happened to her? Both me and Moryth left seeing Layjith... so we have no real guarantee that no one else was in her room. Also, those initials. What could they mean?

Layith - did your sister say anything last night? Anything that could give us more insight on her death?

"Not really, we just talked mostly about the inheritence and who we thought would most likely end up with it. I made the proposition of backing her if she tried to make a claim for it. We tried to stay away from the topic of the murders. It was starting to trouble her especially with the accusations of Aerych against her. She did say that she'd been having trouble sleeping though after Aerych had been executed she'd felt a bit safer. She didn't talk much about who she'd really suspected except for what she said yesterday about Mirienar. I tld her not to worry and that we could talk more in the morning with the others and left her. Now I'm regretting this action greatly for had I been present I could have tried to protect her though I could also be dead like her. Then I left her chambers and I saw Moryth and Mirienar hanging around the entrance to her room. I saw nothing out of the ordinary there nor anything that looked like what may be a threat to her life. Trust me, there is nothing that causes me more grief now than the sight of her death and I would leave this place and the money on offer were I not determined to find her killer. As for the initials maybe thay are part of a name, they could be part of a word or a signiture, who knows? It is all apart of the greater mystery now."

Hjorych was content to see Hylar dead. That it had been by the hands of the other elves in broad daylight, and not a murder of some cowardly asssassin, was all the more pleasing. But still his eyes were filled with anger; for there had not been only one attempt on his life, but several.

"Not only that spineless, wretched excuse of an elf tried to kill me; that evidence does not reveal him as a cultist of the Four Gods is of no consequence to me: He deserved to die." Hjorych paused, throwing an agry look at the servants, who looked more than ready to seize him again. Furious, he had watched them take his sword on his uncle's order, and he was left with a mere excuse of a knife hid in his boot.

"And so does anyone who thinks they can kill me in my sleep! Twice you have tried to remove the reightful heir from the game, you whore child! You are still among us, oh yes, I know it, because your second attempt was only last night! Well if you are so determined to take my life, why don't you do it now!" Hjorych's voice was reaching a hysterical tone, and the servants started moving a little closer. "Because the only chance you'll ever have at taking it before I claim what is mine and have you all executed, is to attack me here, NOW!"


With that, Hjorych pulled out his knife and started circling around the other elves, nervous and lethal like a trapped lion.

"Hmmm. Quite the dramatist, Hjorych. It seems you have no ability with words, and can only talk with your breadknife. How juvenile. You have done nothing to help the situation with your childish posturing. Now put away your little knife, or you will be subdued embarrasingly by the servants again, I'm sure.

At least we can be fairly sure you did not kill the girl I suppose, the idea of poison is clearly beyond your incredibly limited mind."

The servants looks shocked at Hjorych "young master! Please! Think of how your standing would be in the army if they saw or heard of you lose control like this!" they make no physical move to intervene however.

OOC:
Only modkilling if:
1) people make a mistake and break the rules.
2) If people do not make any action in 72 hours. Each day lasts 48 hours RL, each night 24 hours, should give everyone plenty of time. And everyone has some special ability to use at night.

My my what a busy evening many of you have had. Do you truly expect us to you believe you went to discuss the inheritance Moryth? What a coincidence that the night after you vote to have Lady Ishneia killed that you just happened to take an evening walk unaccompanied to her room. We all know you went to kill her. The question is whether or not what you say about Layjith is true. He confesses to paying a visit to her as well undoubtedly for the same reason as you. The question is which of you killed her. I cannot be certain on that but given your actions yesterday along your confession of your evening's activities and your rush to pin the blame on Layjith I believe you to be the guilty party here and as such I vote: Moryth.

My today's vote will be quite unusual... Simply, I do not have prime suspect by now. So whom I will vote for will be decided by means of elimination: Layjith didn't kill his sister, of that I'm more or less convinced. Moryth: Yes, he was near Ishneia's bedroom, as was I, so I saw him running from there with my own eyes. Not him, then.
Hjorych - well, Hjorych seems to be quite a straithforward person. I don't really see him using poison. If any of those is acting, they do their job damn well...
So..

Vote: Thir

Thir is silent, maybe tries to avoid any attention... Sadly, It's most suspicious thing going on right now.

And thus night falls...

As the dusk slowly falls upon the mansion the guests and servants gather, each with a dagger as they slowly move towards the doomed, some nerveous paranoid like Hjorych, others resigned to their fate like Thir and then there are those babbling in fear and for mercy in Moryth, his true colours revealed as a run-away caledorian stableboy.

Yet it matters not, as the blades are lifted for the second time in a crimson display the two of them lie dead at your feet, while the lord of the Manor once more starts to chant.

Thir... was an assassin whose true name was Sarthil! Look at the masterfull disguise, even her own gender did she disguise!

Moryth however! Incompetent stableboy! Thrice attempted murderer! He was an asur like the rest of us...

It is now Night
Those of you with abilities to do so, may PM me, the rest of you: Quiet time.

Night at the mansion...

Mirienar D'nyss... sat quietly in his room, looking around himself, most of the people in the mansion had been murdered over the last nights, he himself had even attempted to murder Ishneia last night, though had failed discovered as he was by her brother, yet his mind was tainted by it all the same, and by guilt... And as such he sat quietly alone in his room, desperatly pondering what to do...

There still was the question of the inheritance, he desperatly needed the money, the people he owed money where not the types you denied for long... And he had allready denied them longer than most...

Barring his room, refusing to even touch any of the things in it, he sat there, his eyes open in the darkness as he heard the scream... Still he refused to unbar his door till the lights struck the outer windows...

Layjith Highvale... quietly contemplating last nights actions, this merchant driven to desperation mourned the loss of his sister... by his own hand, before quietly preparing the poison, nodding to himself breathing calmly, then he stepped out the room to prepare for tonights death, screaming in pain as he felt the steel enter him as he left his room...

Hjorych... grimly determinded this noble had sat in his room, he had never locked it during the full week despite three attempts at his life he still honoured tradition, yet this night he could no longer sit iddle, he knew who the murderer was, and he knew when the murderer would strike again so he walked calmly up, picked up his dagger, it was a fine thing made out of pure ilithmar and ever so light in his hand, it has been given to him the day he had been considered an adult, grasping its comforting feel he walked to wait outside Layjith's room, knowing fully well that Layjith would yet again try to murder someone.

...a moment later the door open and his dagger struck...

Daytime

His door being broken down and dragged out Mirienar was slowly escorted out, his lack of sleep and his paranoia making him unsteady, by contrast the sole other surviver Hjorych looked fresh and rested, daring to speak, Mirienar asked the obvious

"who... died?" smiling grimly Hjorych did not bother to reply to a question wich Mirienar allready knew the answerer "then... its my turn to die now? Is it not? ...I guess, that it gives me some freedom from the debtors..." shaking his head in disgust, the heir of Lord Saleith banished the goldsmith from the mansion, he was no kinslayer. He was an Asur, the guardian of his people, and he would never lift a hand against his own, unless they by their actions betrayed themselves as the foul kin.

The Asur wins this DaU (i'll get you next time...)

OOC:
And with that this DAU ends, I hope that you all enjoyed it, I have a few closing comments:

-everyone- had the ability to use assassination, I simply put the tool out there for everyone to use.

The reason no one found Shiadrils (P_A's) murderer was that no one bothered to check Kerion Morningsun (Allerion) who died by falling down the stairs.

I secretly rooted for Layjith, I have a thing for high elves who become dark elves, and at the end of this DaU he was one in action and mind even if he had not been when he started it, he made an assassination attempt every single night, after murdering his own sister I maked him as a protogé for the god of murder and gave him +1 to all further assassination attempts (offcourse, I then immediatedly rolled a "2" the following night), offcourse then Andy sent me his plan to simply wait outside the door should Layjith have some untoward ideas and just as it happened, that did happen.

My original intent was, as some of you likedly have guessed, to let the host be the druchii, and let the guests murder each other till he found someone amongst the worthy of succeeding him as the witch kings agent, however much to my suprise Andruillius and Khar actually stayed true as high elves all the way through, and as such the lord of the mansion, dying finally that night due to his long life of misuse, had only one true heir left (Andy), a high elf. There is some irony to my plan backfiring to make one of you a druchii only to have the only ones who stayed as high elves all the way.

Here is some of the character relations I wrote:

NoOodle (Aerych): Played a naggarythe tanner (true), he -did- kill his own brother, and his brother -was- in fact a druchii. He was the only one who from the start knew Thir's true identity.

Prince_Asuryan (Shiadril): Court schemer, a really really vile character, she had twisted Layjith to propose to her and accepted it, and made several other guests so drunk in the past that they had done the same... sadly for her they did not recall it, and one of them murdered her.
And another of them well... the real Thir was killed by an assassin taking up the identity, meaning that the real Thir might have loved Shiadril, shame that the real Thir was dead.

The Darkness (Layjith): The character was genuinedly in love with Shiadril, and was also genuinedly certain that she would'nt mind him grabbing the inheritance... Love and war... (oh and no, he did not have any relationship with his sister).
He also had the special ability to learn the truth about rumours.

Cidracin (Ishneia): Another vicious persona, she did not like her brother, though she did not wish him dead either.

Allerion (Kerion): A old veteran soldier, tired of his many wars. He was actually the one to hire the assassin to support Layjith's bid for the inheritance, sadly for him, he did not know the assassins identity, he saw Layjith as a good hope for his people, a hope for peace.
...fool (but that was the character, not Allerion being one).

Prince Elileth (Thir Greenleaf/Sarthil): The assassin, hired to support Layjith by killing those against him, she was suprised to learn that Thir appearently was a heir too, and given the choice between honouring her contractand supporting herself... well I never knew the intent of Elileth to be honest, but I suspect that he'd be greedy and eventually try to murder Layjith.
The character had the special rule that it could look as -any- other character and deliberatly "fail" an assassination attempt, so that the player would be told that X attempted to assassinate him and failed.
The night Ishneia died would have seen Moryth meeting Moryth in the hallways as such, had there been a different timing.

Oh and yes, he was a high elf too, high elves can be just as skilled as dark elves in all things, or so I believe.

Paraicj (Moryth): Was actually a Caledorian stableboy, he was a lowborn peasant really who smelled of horse, he was also the source of the rumours appearing each dawn as was his special rule.
...the character was also written as a coward, despite this Moryth made several assassination attempts.

Khar (Mirienar): Was a goldsmith, was also a ludoman and utterly unable to control his own spending, he would bet on anything usually lose his money, that is why he was so desperate to get his inheritance, having failed he now returns and have to endure what no Asur should endure... He is going to sweep the streets of Tor Yvresse... manually... for the next twenty years!

Illidan (Hylar): Was a liar, gambler and general charlatan, his special rule was that he was able to discover wether or not a rumour was true or false. On a 4+ that is. -Not that i'd ever want to actually tell him the truth, he'd always be told about a rumour as if he had rolled a 4+. (if he could learn anything that is).
All the rumours about him where false, including the one that he was good in bed (Orgasm to Hylar was a race, who finishes first wins).

Andruillius (Hjorych): The only one who really was in bloodline with the lord of the mansion, I did never expect him to last that long seeing as Andy is a rather strong personality that easedly makes enemies of the other players, I actually love that the joke ended up on me in that, seeing as he was the winner.

Yay, we won. Even though I'm now set for long term public humiliation, I'm alive and managed to get rid of an assassin. Maybe someone will at least buy me a drink for that. :wink:
Idea of giving everyone possibility to murder others was definately interesting.. and probably tested morality of some.

Only time I ever used it was in the night when everyone decided to show up near Ishneia's room, and my plan was kinda similar to Andy's on the last night - to stab her only if she goes out. And it was only because she tried to kill my character night before and than blame him next day when she failed.
By the way, was that really Ishneia or disguised Thir?

Also, any chance for full list of everyone's nighttime activities?

Exactly, and most of your proved to be as vicious at I had hoped, only thing i'd like to see more of is descriptions on how people attempt to murder and how they attempt to avoid discovery. Ah well, next time..
Khar wrote:Also, any chance for full list of everyone's nighttime activities?
Offcourse:

Character actions – night: 1

Moryth Shimmermist (Paraicj):
-intent to murder Kerion Morningsun (Allerion), making it look like food poisoning.
Result: I rolled a 1, failure!
Rolling for Allerion: 4, Paraicj’s identity is discovered!
Rumour: Paraicj wishes to make the rumour that Andruillius lies with goats and is disliked by the lord of the manor. (rolled a 2 –somewhat easy to trace back. He’s not lucky tonight).

Layjith Highvale (The Darkness):
Uses the ”rumour finder” while going to the kitchen for a midnight snack (alibi: Accepted).
Rolled a ”3” no rumours found. Decided to change it into a success but make it so that the staff will tell –anyone- asking that he has been asking questions about Hylar Sureshot. (Illidan Hellforge).
Rumour learned: Appearently he managed to deflower three priestesses of Isha… in a single night! The pervert!

Kerion Morningsun (Allerion)
Intent to murder Shiadril gloamingmist (Prince_Asuryan)
Result: I rolled a 6! Success!
Rolling to see if he is discovered: 4 (nope, he is’nt. Ladies and gentlemen, Kerion is our fist successfull murderer).

Ishneia Highvale (cidracin):
Intent to murder Aerych Glimmervale (NoOodle)
Result: I rolled a 2 - failure!
Aerych has a special rule giving him +1 to avoid assassination and one +1 to discover who attempted it, and since I roll a ”3” he discovers the identity of his would-be-assassin.

Hylar Sureshot (Illidan):
Intent to murder Hjorych (Andruillius)
Result: I rolled a ”3” - Failure!
Discovery roll: I rolled a ”5” success!

Aerych Glimmervale (NoOodle):
Intent to murder Hjorych (Andruillius)
Result: I rolled a ”5” - failure!
Discovery: I rolled a ”3” failure!

Thir Greenleaf (Prince_Elileth):
Intent to murder Aerych Glimmervale (NoOodle)
Result: I rolled a ”3” failure
Discovery: I rolled a ”1” failure.
Note: I decided that the failure was due to Aerych being out attempting to kill Hjorych.

Shiadril Gloamingmist (Prince_Asuryan):
Intent: To murder Moryth Shimmermist (Paraicj)
Description bonus: +1 (seduction)
Rolled: 5 (success)

Special: on 3+ character remembers Aerych from the past.
Rolled: 3 (success)
Character aborted action. -No assassination roll made.

Moryth Shimmermist (Paraicj):
Rumour started: Rather than being a competent archer, Aerych in fact can't tell one end of a bow from the other, and merely carries it round as an affectation to distract from the stink of tannery work that constantly follows him in a miasma.
Assassination attempt: Mirienar D’nyss (Khar)
Rolled: 5 (failure)
Discovery: 2 (failure)

Aerych Glimmervale (NoOodle):
Intent: To murder Hjorych (andy)
Rolled: 5 (failure)
Discovery: 1 (failure)

Night 3:

Layjith Highvale (The Darkness):
Intent: To murder Ishneia Highvale (Cidracin)
Description bonus: +3 to assassination –automatic success in identifying him should he fail.
Phase of night: first phase, before they go to bed.
Note: Welcome to the dark side… He gains a special rule of adept of Khaine, having +1 to assassination from now on.
Rolled: 3 (success)
Note: Intent to carve the initials M and S into her, along with the rune of Khaine. (deception? Check, stealthy murder? Check, dedication to the god of murder? Check).

Ishneia Highvale (Cidracrin):
Intent: To murder Mirienar D’nyss (Khar)
Roll: Not eligible –she is dead.

Mirienar D’nyss (Khar)
Intent: To murder Ishneia Highvale (Cidracin)

Discovery: 2 (success)

Moryth Shimmermist (Paraicj)
Intent: To murder Ishneia Highvale (Cidracin)
Roll: Not eligible, she is dead.

Thir Greenleaf (Prince Elileth)
Intent: To murder Ishneia Highvale (Cidracin)
Roll: Not eligible: She is allready dead…

notes: Cidracin was really really wanted that night

Night 4:


Layjith Highvale (The Darkness):
intent: To murder Mirienar (Khar)
roll: not eligible.

Hjiorych (Andruillius):
intent: To murder Layjith should he leave to assassinate someone else

automatic success. (chicken...)
