WEEK 3

WEEK 3


Another week, another set of bodies to add to the pile. Two lured in by The Lady's machinations, and another two done in by misfortune; six of your number are dead already. Who knows who it will be the next time? And for what reason? Nevertheless, there’s no choice but to keep pushing on in your own way; whether that means barricading yourself inside your room for the rest of your stay, leaving artwork of your fellow Survivors around the housing area, or eating all the raw meat in the vicinity… well, everyone deals with things differently.

Either way, you understand the drill by now, yes? Another portion of the city reveals itself as the fog retreats yet again, lampposts lighting the way to the new areas as usual. The full moon wanes to half this week too, so make the most of it.

[[Welcome to Week 3! Note that new areas have been added, and can be found under the Week 3 tab on our Locations page. Once again, feel free to make top levels at your discretion, and remember to note it in your header if you plan on investigating any locations. You can also privately contact The Lady or Rembrandt.]]

Unless Rembrandt actually got something out of all of us sharing nothing and not trusting you, then yes.

I think he got enough. He knows now there isn't one person everyone answers to.

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-01-22 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Who did he think we were all answering to?

I have theories, but I don't know for sure. He operates on an equal exchange. If I want an answer, I'll have to give an answer.

[personal profile] bawcock 2020-01-22 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Does that mean you brought him to our meeting as a way to trade information?

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-01-22 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[ also curious about this... ]

No. I invited him to show him that there isn't a leader for this particular group. Usually when the villains want to know the leader, it's so they know who to make an example of when things go wrong.

[ He'll just lay out his whole thought process ]

So in a way, you were trying to protect us. I guess I can understand that, sure. Just make sure you warn everyone a little sooner if you decide to pull another stunt like this one.

[ Oh, back to the first topic tho. ]

Anyway, I hope you did end up trading for this. It wasn't worth it if you didn't get anything from it at all.
raventhaw: (just close your eyes)

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-01-22 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
What are you trying to get out of Rembrandt, anyway?

Information on the fossils. It seems like there's something odd happening there.

[personal profile] raventhaw 2020-01-22 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Like what?

[Hmm...]

When did you have this discussion with him? What exactly did he say?

[personal profile] deadlygoals 2020-01-22 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
A week ago.

[ Pausing to think of the words. ]

Who would you say is a leader among you? And before you say there isn't one, there always is.

[personal profile] psychophant 2020-01-22 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
...Interesting. I would have thought he'd be able to determine that from the trials - if we had a leader, surely they'd be attempting to keep us on task.

[personal profile] deadlygoals 2020-01-22 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly. I do wonder if he's come across other groups before who did have such a dynamic.

It's a strange question to ask, isn't it? I have a hard time imagining us all following anyone as a leader.

[But who knows, maybe other murdergames groups are less chaotic.]

[personal profile] deadlygoals 2020-01-22 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Which is why I think he wanted the information either to use whomever our leader is or make an example of.
