WEEK TWO: TRIAL

[retellers]

WEEK TWO: TRIAL (35 remain) Rise and shine, gremlins. Hopefully you found it in you to make and eat breakfast, despite yesterday's news. At 11am, everyone will receive a message on their PHS, simply stating: This is your reminder to be at the Emporium by 12 PM. Shortly before 12pm, every participant will feel compelled to move towards the Emporium, if they aren't already there. No exceptions! Though they will have to navigate around shelves and merchandise and the like, everyone will fit neatly inside the room. Once all the participants are present and the clock strikes twelve, the doors lock behind them. Three of the Leaders are there with them: Wolf, Rabbit, and Fox. Fox speaks. "... Third time isn't the charm, as it turns out. You have nine hours. We'll help with what we can, as before." ༶•┈┈⛧┈｡o°✥✣ 　　 ✣✥°o｡┈⛧┈┈•༶ Hello, everyone, and welcome to the third trial! For the next nine hours, the characters are expected to discuss among themselves, ask questions, examine the bodies of the victims, look over the evidence found yesterday, and revisit locations as needed in order to find the culprit(s). There'll be a one hour break from 5-6pm EST, where no mod tags will occur. Before the trial is over, please remember to place your character's vote over on the voting page. Voting will close at 9pm EST/6pm PST, and will serve as our activity check for the week, so please be sure you get your vote in before it ends unless you have contacted us previously. If you have any questions at any time, please let us know by pinging us on Discord!

Yes, but consider this. The tears were made afterward to throw us off, and weren't done in a fight whatsoever. If the spear and the gun were both used, then that implies a person who didn't want to fight up close.

I don't think the costume was used in Raven's case, because of all the gloves being smaller, but I could be wrong.

[evocationary]

If the tears were made after, why do they have blood on them?

[robopriest]

Made with the knife at the end of the spear, I'm guessing. The blood was already on it, but there was no wound underneath.

[ With everyone panicking over Dorothy, here we are. ]

If we get too close to one another, we can feel each others' emotions. If we touch each other, we shock one another. Range implies either that they didn't want to be detected or sensed, that they didn't want to risk losing an upperhand because of being shocked, or they weren't confident regarding their ability in taking down an opponent head-on.

[ Laughingly, if darkly: ] I rescind my comment on the bar fight causing the damage to the clothing. There could very well have been no fight, if the drink was drugged.

[robopriest]

....Yes, you're right. The fight was staged. Then people who we had to rule out before because of lack of fighting ability are still, unfortunately, suspects.

Both of these murders seemed to be done to avoid actual fights.
