Murder, Mystery, and Mayhem

[The Host]

I'm looking for a few folks to participate in a mystery thread that will take us hopping about the galaxy on a quest to solve a few very disturbing questions. Preferably throw-away characters are best suited to this, or characters created specifically to be offed.

I don't expect to start it for another few days, as I have to finish getting the first venue picture-clues put together, so there's plenty of time to sign up for this possible one-way ticket :D

But, I will give you a little blurb about what we'll all be up against:


It is a relic of an age long gone, a piece of history that has been left to crumble in space. But, what it holds in its' once hallowed and sacred halls is the first piece to a puzzle that will take more than one person to unravel. As you and your companions try to decipher the writings of half-crazed minds left in blood, you are inevitably pulled deeper into an insanity that will not release you, and by the time you find the answer it will be too late.



It's mostly going to be player driven, with myself writing out the environments and providing the clues in the form of 'screencaps' from each place you'll be visiting. Once the next stop on the trip is figured out using said clues, I'll move things along. I'm hoping it'll be fairly interactive, and will be a fun challenge :)

Any takers?

:ohno this is gonna be sweeeet.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

It'll be fun! I promise >D

[Emelie Shadowstar]

This...sounds awesome. And it may just be the kick in the butt I need to get back into the swing of writing.

I'll make my throw-away-doomed-from-the-start character later today *nod*

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

We have Jenny, Em, and Charley. Anyone else?

I'll be posting the intro later tonight, so if people are interested just drop a line in this here thread :)

[The Host]

Ok so Brewfest did a number on me. Putting things together now, and working on the intro post.

This thread can be used to discuss the clues provided :)

[Gral Hussar]

Disposable character at your service!

[Dasquian Belargic]

It looks great! So how do we play along?

[Sean Noorith]

Disposable character at your service!

ditto.

I almost feel bad for this guy. Almost.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I'm working on the second post that'll setup the environment for everyone :)

[The Host]

All done :D

I figure there can be some interaction between the <strike>poor saps</strike> characters before I send the distress call :)

[Blade Bacquin]

I'm up for making a disposable character and playing this game. lol

[Dyans Orion]

If allowed in this will be the disposable character. I used a unisex name so gender can go either way.

[The Host]

By all means join in :D

[Dyans Orion]

This will be her.

Quick question is there or can there be military personal aboard the ship? It seems more like a science vessel but there is always pirates and stuff to worry about. I was thinking he would be soldier.

I will post as soon as I have a little bit of any idea of what her personality will be like. Cause if she is a Soldier its goign to be way different then if she is a scientist of some kind.

[The Host]

The characters and how you play them is entirely up to you. I'm fine with anything :)

[The Host]

pokey pokey?

[Dasquian Belargic]

Not my turn yet, right? :uhoh

[Emelie Shadowstar]

I don't think so! Think we're waiting on the rest of the crew to make their intros at this point?

[The Host]

That be correct :D

[Blade Bacquin]

Who is left yet to join in?

[The Host]

I'm not sure. So far we have Em, you, Charley, and Jenny. I'll be making a character as well, to be introduced at a later interval. Since it's been a decent amount of time since I put out the call, we'll just assume that it's only us, so Jenny, you can go ahead and post now :)

[Dasquian Belargic]

I think we probably need to chat before I get a post up. I need to make certain exactly what I'm supposed to be doing :lol

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Yes Ma'am :)

I'll be home from work at around 4 pm central tomorrow, so if you're around I'll hit you up on AIM. If not, I'll just PM you :)

[Captain Untouchable]

I totally missed this while I was being all lame and away. It looks so awesome. :ohno

Any space for anyone else? I'm happy to wait until later and come in at a convenient plot point, if that's easier. :angel

[Vega Van-Derveld]

I am just waiting for the unlucky crew to post.

[Sanis Prent]

I guess I'm up. I will post tonite

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

You're more than welcome to join in, Jace :)

In fact, I do have a use for you if you're up for playing shellshocked insanity ;)

[Captain Untouchable]

Shellshocked Insanity sounds like one heck of an awesome video game... :mischief

[Sean Noorith]

Hey... if you want in right away, there's an unspoken for pilot that's currently in NPCish status from what I can tell. :) Don't see why you can't jump in there.

Or you can see what madness Lok has in store for you.


... it's a bad thing I'm already trying to contemplate how to let his character survive in some form, isn't it? Must. Not. Get. Attached. To. Temporary. Character.

[Captain Untouchable]

Don't worry - having heard the details, Lok's insanity is more than enough for me. :mischief
