Potential Feedback

Spoiler : Feedback :

Spoiler : Roleblock/Attempted Roleblock :

An attractive entertainer occupied your night. You were roleblocked!

Spoiler : Jailed/Kidnapped :

You were inspecting your cherry garden when you heard a curious noise in your quarters. Suspicious, you draw out your sword and slowly approach your quarters... A quick rush of air and alas a hooded, masked man has overpowered you and knocked you out from behind! You frantically try to resist, but the man manages to stab you with a pin! As the stars in the sky slowly blur away, the gravity of the situation dawns on you: you have been kidnapped!

You awaken, alone, in a dark room, your hands unbound. A parchment lies on the table in front, reading:"[Jailor's Jail Message Appears Here]".

Your captor finally enters the room and starts interrogating you.

NIGHT CHAT WITH YOUR CAPTOR OPENED.

Spoiler : Auditor's Feedback :

You investigated the late [TARGETNAME]'s finances last night, uncovering their occupation: [TARGETROLE], as well as their testament: [TARGETWILL].

Spoiler : Sleuth's Feedback :

You stealthily made your way to [TARGETNAME]'s quarters last night, finding and stealing their last will and testament. Upon returning home, you...



a) decide to keep the last will as is and return it to your target's home
b) decide to forge the documents

Their last will was:

[TARGET.LAST.WILL.QUOTE.GOES.HERE]

Spoiler : Private Message from the Tormentor :

While walking in the streets of Kyoto, you pass by a shadowy but well-mannered samurai, dressed in ceremonial robes. He slips, and, you, in good faith, offer to help him up. The stranger is thankful, but he immediately disappears after you turn around. Bewildered by his sudden disappearance, you reach for your sword, when you notice a small piece of parchment in your sleeve. It reads:

[TORMENTOR.MESSAGE.GOES.HERE.]

Spoiler : Ronin Pledges Allegiance To You :

Late at night, a landless retainer demands an audience with you. 'This man says he will pledge himself to you, body, sword and soul, if only you would teach him your ways', one of your guards says. You hastily let the man in. Bowing before you with great respect, he refuses to reveal his identity, for he says he has many enemies at court and that these are dangerous times. 'Dangerous times indeed', you remark as you ponder whether you should accept his loyalty or not. After much debate, the samurai convinces you to take him in and you decide to grant him a parcel of land from your personal estate, in exchange for his service.

A RONIN CHOSEN YOU AS THEIR MASTER.

Link to anon chat: [LINK.GOES.HERE]

Spoiler : Your Master was lynched! :

You did not believe it at first. It seemed that time itself was shutting down. Your master, of all people, accused of plotting to overthrow the Shogun himself? It was a baseless accusation, one without honour. And yet, he was found guilty of treason and executed. One thing is clear in your mind. You are forever dishonored by having followed this man. Bushido code demands your honorable death by suicide. But perhaps it would be a stronger message indeed if you took someone else with you first? Your Master would've wanted it so. His killers must be brought to justice.

YOU HAVE BECOME A DISHONORED RONIN (JESTER).

Spoiler : Role Card :

*CANNOT SPAWN AT GAME START*

You win if you are lynched during the day.

Spoiler : Your Master was killed at night! :

You hurriedly race towards your Master's quarters, knowing full well you have little time to waste. The walls appear to have been hacked with an axe! And the guards are dead. Heart pumping and filled with a mixture of fear and disgust, you rush to your Master's bedroom, only to find him already dead and the killer escaped. You vow vengeance on those who have killed your master and dishonored you! 'There is no way out of this, save to commit sepuku! But I may take some of those spineless, honourless scoundrels with me, first,' you think to yourself.
YOU HAVE BECOME A DISHONORED RONIN (JESTER).

Spoiler : Role Card :

*CANNOT SPAWN AT GAME START*

You win if you are lynched during the day.

Additional notes

There are three separate jail chats, not all of which are necessarily active at the same time. They have similar names (Cell Block R-47, Cell Block J-19 and Cell Block G-48. I will randomize (before game start) the roles which are assigned the Cell Blocks (Jailor, Kidnapper, Tormentor).

I'm adding an observer/dead chat for this game. It's located in the same place as the night chats. If you want to talk to join in the observer discussion, you need to PM me (after the game starts) so I can send you the password and login. I may add some mini-games in the Observer chat so people can have fun.
