Room 6

[dramatispersonae]

You find yourselves in a well acquainted parlor while the storm rages on outside. Mother's voice resounds from somewhere unseen.

"Dear Mother will be with you in a moment, my children. But until then, please do try to become well acquainted with one another."

[You'll find a small dance card tucked into the pocket of your outfit. It has on it a description of your role. Please refer to the DP journal for a post locked to your team with the contents of your card.]

The room seems...comfortable.

[thankyouverymooch]

[Meet Sir Michael Beahan Mulvany, who's wearing this because shirts are evil.]

Why not, I guess.

Wow . . . this is really nice.

Sir Theodore Adderly Caffry II

[Has a very nice Tiger's Eye yellow silk cape and a silver collar and bracelets with Tiger's Eye gems.]

Oh, this is much nicer.

Secrets

[dramatispersonae]

As your mingling continues, suddenly Mother's voice cuts through the sounds of conversation.

"Well now, I am so sorry that to so long my dears, but now I feel the game can begin. It's hardly the weather for a waltz but I think it is such a lovely atmosphere to get to know one another intimately. You'll find exactly how intimate on your cards, of course. Just write the name of the person who matches, in your humble opinion. Do try to be correct, Mother does so despise it when you try to pretend to be clever with your guesses."

[Your cards now have three items listed on the left hand side with blank spaces on the right to write names. Please refer to the comments of your team post in the DP journal for what's written on your card. You cannot share the contents of your card with others.]

Mmh...

Re: Secrets

[ranoutofmemories]

These are kind of sad . . .

Re: Secrets

[glorious]

[...Interesting.]

Re: Secrets

[goneastray]

I'm confused...

Re: Secrets

Maybe we could ask each other questions as a group?

Suspicion

[dramatispersonae]

[Once the cards have been filled out, Mother's voice returns.]

Thank you, my dears. That was quite enjoyable, wasn't it? Now, let's see if we can add a bit of excitement to this tired old game. You've gained the trust of your fellows, so do try your hand at convincing them of the sordid affairs that you've found your peers to be engaging in. Ah, but it wouldn't do to make a scandal. Let's try to keep things quiet now, shall we?

[Spreading rumors time! The object is to convince three people that your secrets indicate who you suspect, one person per secret.]

Re: Suspicion

[glorious]

...So we are to build trust only to shatter it once again?

Re: Suspicion

[thankyouverymooch]

Most of these aren't sordid affairs at all...

Re: Suspicion

[screwthatnoise]

...understood.

I cannot help but presume that Sir Mulvany knows little about diplomacy. A diplomatic person would have shown up to this formal gathering dressed conservatively. Not only that, but his manners are questionable.

Re: Suspicion

[thankyouverymooch]

Based on what we discussed about, I have reasons to believe Sir Abyndon Rossiter Gerenraip is currently writing a book. He's been disguising himself as a member of high-society in order to collect information.

In addition to that, I do believe his eyebrows are fake.

Re: Suspicion

[goneastray]

But why would we do that?

Re: Suspicion

[glorious]

Sir Mulvany is actually a dreadful monster with terrible red eyes that turn people to stone. That's why we never see him with his eyes open.
