murder manor week zero



saturday

[Saturday begins much like Friday, with no further answers provided, and no means of escape. However, at 3 PM on Saturday, the old grandfather clock in the foyer begins to chime. From the foyer, the ballroom doors stand open, and the room is bright with sunshine. Soft, dreamy music plays from a radio inside.

Inside the ballroom, what seems to be a magnificent party is laid out. There is a buffet table laden with finger foods - vegetables and dips, finger sandwiches, pastries, fruit, and cheeses. Next to the table are glasses filled with wine, champagne, or juice. Most of the room is empty, with room to stand and talk, although towards the windows looking out on the courtyard are six tables with five place settings each, set for a larger meal.

And then there's a seventh table, at the back of the room, on which are thirty small notebooks. Inside, the notebooks appear to be some sort of album, with each page containing a picture of and information about your fellow guests.

After everyone has filed in, the doors shut and lock behind the final guest; the doors to the courtyard close as well. You'll have some time to talk amongst yourself, for it will be another hour of dining before anyone else appears]

This is an open mingle log for the welcome feast. Please tag one another. There will be NPC interaction in the post later in the day.

Why not?

You can turn your hair into whips. That's as farfetched as anything else listed here, isn't it? It all depends on perspective.

Any of this and all of this is likely to be perfectly normal in our respective homes.

[Well there was nothing really normal about Susan but the point was there.]

[ There's a point there. ] Look, maybe what I do isn't normal, but neither is... extradimensional whatever this is.

Unbelievable or not, the fact remains that we're all here. They've given us this information for a reason, and it's not merely to pique our curiosity.

...I don't know if we'll like the reason much, though.
