Oh yeah, if we're worried about missing bullets, I'll show off my guns

Show off all my guns and the bullets inside of them, including all the ones I grabbed tonight
You show off a frankly unreasonable quantity of guns. They are all fully loaded.

Wherever I go...calamity follows...that's right, crap for brains! I was definitely the Stand, Wonder of U, this whole freakin' time! Anyway, I tried to punch out the saloon and kill everyone inside, but all that happened was a big chunk of the ceiling fell and almost killed Honoka. No such luck for me to get back to the world of the living this time. I wanted to punch out the water tower supports too, but I guess someone beat me to that. I hung out in the movie theater most of the night, and at some point, someone dropped a gun on me? Pretty rude stuff. McJango came in and tore up a seat, and I tried to warn him with my menacing phrase, 'Wonder of U'....but I guess it doesn't work on cats. Oh well, I'll see you guys when they animate this part of the manga I guess!

Can we check some tools from the Garage against Honoka's wounds?

A couple of the beds in the Hotel look disturbed. The Brewery window is open, but otherwise the windows seem undisturbed.

You check the various tools from the Garage. They don't match.

Any Blacksmithing tools match?

Was the axe wound in my back post-mortem...?

I'd like to check the... d-decapitation too. To see if that was after I died...

Um... that one might be harder, though. I haven't ever tried to check without the head around... y-you know, usually on battlefields, they're lying somewhere nearby, or... hanging off by a few tendons...

...I have to apologize to you all. Atua got the better of me. I thought maybe I could handle him alone, but... something about this place is suppressing my Atma. I can't tune without it. I've always said it was going to be important to hone your regular skills even after being branded, but this time I've come up short. You're going to have to find some way to bring him down to our level. Gods derive power from belief and fear. Facing gods head-on turns them to demons. Band together and you may just make it out of here yet.

I don't have much time left to help you, I can feel it. The solar noise is going to quiet down by sunset... and that'll be the end of me.

On this vision of the earth, at least.

Spoiler:

I began my night in Derek Stiles' bedroom. Quaint in its own way, but I wasn't comfortable staying in a dead man's room, so I went for a walk. I did stop by his dresser drawers to look for anything useful. He had a Letter Opener and a Gun. Perfect for me, I'm trained for both. I had a plan in mind, the rules of this place bade me to make an attempt on someone's life. I'm not picky, I've killed before... though not usually in cold blood in a scenario like this.

I left the Dormitories. The Blue Building was my target, and on the way I saw Pohatu moving East of the Green building, and that Partitio man leaving his room assignment. In the Break Room, I grabbed an empty bottle of water and some straws, then moved to the Film Equipment room to find some sort of head covering. I settled for a sack with holes cut in for me to see out of. While I was crafting my mask, I saw Hollywood Bowl move for the Soundstage.

He's... very strange. Is that an Atma form? I know of some tuners getting an unfortunate brand and ending up as a turnip-headed chicken or a mound of wet slime.

I digress. I went downstairs, running into Reginald and Honoka entering the Breakroom as I make my exit. I think Honoka was looking for the Executive Office. I left the building and met North Star on my way to the General Store. I climbed down that trapdoor and got shot in the chest. Usually I'd be weak to that in Human Form, but the bullets were only rubber. Still stung quite a bit. Tsavorae retrieved her tie from here while The Noise and Elster loiter by the Blue Basement doors. Meanwhile, my goal was in the Garage.

I took my straws from here to siphon some Gasoline into my empty bottle. It didn't take long, so I met back up with the group by the Blue doors and waited for Cascabela to come unlock them. We all moved as one unit towards the Crypt. I do have a fondness for a 5 person team... The Embryon could use a few more capable non-tuners if any of you ever find your way to...

...Nevermind. I doubt any of you want to follow me to wherever I end up once the Sun goes down. Elster stopped early to go to the Rectory, with The Noise barreling past us all leaving me and Tsavorae to head for the Crypt. Tsavorae grabbed the skeleton I was after, though I only needed a small chunk of bone. I left through the Green Basement and went upstairs, heading for Mineral Storage. Ranger was there, lying unconscious in the middle of the street. I would have stopped to help, but I seem to have lost my revival gem. I was heading for the Mines because I heard a tip that Derek buried something there. I spent a few minutes digging it up to find some large bolts.

I went back into the Basement via the mineshaft. Partitio and Neil were both meandering while I made way for the Supply Depot for a piece of bread. I see the two going North when I left the Depot, and I tried to go towards the Purple Basement before realizing I don't have a key. I decided to go back up the mineshaft, and that Kroose woman nearly died being tossed down to the basement. She was alive, but barely. As I said, I lost my revival equipment, so I couldn't help. On my way up, there was a sheet ghost going down past me. Back in the Ruined Mine, I put my sack mask on over my head and went outside via the Dormitories.

Eking my way around the twister, I noticed North Star was trying to get into the Cemetery. Quite dangerous given the tornado right besides it. Making my way to the stables there was a large explosion, and the Water Tower came crashing down with a mighty force. Some kind of Bandito was walking away from the scene, I figured then was my chance to grab my victim. I swung for them, but they evaded me. When I finally got to the Stables proper, The Noise was riding away on a cow while the Lasagna Cat tried to coax one of the horses. Fortunately, there wasn't a proper victim here for me to enact my plans on. I had planned to force them to ride into the Tornado and explode in a violent cavalcade of gasoline... but it wasn't meant to be.

Tsavorae was moving North of the twister. I went over there myself to see McJango and Deathborn... and Atua.

When I saw him, I tried to change into Varna, but something seems to be blocking my powers. Still, for now, I am a devil hunter, and it was my responsibility to try and take him down while I still had a chance, even without my magic.

He's... overwhelming. Maybe resistant to gun. I couldn't place a shot on him as he charged me. One grapple and I was down for the count.

If we're going to try again, we'll need a real strategy and more manpower next time. No enemy is too strong for the Embryon at full strength.
Serph and the party begin to feel hungry.

Was good to stretch my legs out again, felt like my body was full of cramps when I got put in it again.

My night was quite nice. I did some creative appropriation of goods, talked to my good friend Momoyo, and then had a nice dance at the saloon. The water tower? I... can’t say I know what happened to it, not at all.

[Image: Marisa-Happy.png]

I started my night with the urge to borrow as much as I can, I mean, most of you guys are gonna outlive me, so there shouldn’t be a problem with borrowing all this until I die?

Unfortunately, someone took my medical key (it’s mine, not Jessica’s), so I couldn’t take out all the medicine from there, but I could at least borrow all her books. Also went and took some guns, I mean, you guys don’t need all that, right? I saw Akira pass from the Doctor’s Office and to the Trading Post while I was doing that.

After I was done, I went downstairs and outside. I saw Ventura in carpentry and the nice mime’s horse flying overhead, shame what happened to her, to be honest. I arrived at the stables and water tower, and started doing... completely unsuspicious things to the water tower, not at all trying to make it tumble down.

As soon as I finished doing nothing at all, I went up north and saw Cascabela leave the general store, and I went in after she left, and I started borrowing some more! Don’t worry, I’ll pay for it later! I swear!!!

[Image: Marisa-Shocked.png]

Also, man, you guys really messed that jail cell up. Well, it wasn’t my problem so I just passed through and went to borrow more guns from the Army Post. Again, you guys don’t need all the guns so it’s okay if I borrow them, right? Thanks!

Didn’t need anything else so I just left and walked behind the Blue building. I saw Lynne and Pohatu talking. It was nice to see the unfortunate guy make a friend after what happened to him when we first got here. I went down south and entered Mining Equipment so I could find Momoyo, and she was there. So we had a nice chat about all sorts.

After leaving the building, I saw the new guy, Serph, passed out in front of the twister, good thing it doesn’t move or he’d be screwed. It also wasn’t my problem so I just passed him and entered the saloon. I wanted to dance and so I was gonna dance!

[Image: Marisa-Angry.png]

I dunno why some people, not naming names [sub]North Star[/sub] can’t appreciate a good dance routine, and I dunno why he had to fucking shoot me over it! The ass. Well, he wasn’t the only one who came to the saloon while I was dancing, so here’s a list of their order.

-Bud came in first, and I saw him go upstairs without coming back down for the rest of the night.
-Next was Ace, he went up to the Brewery stairs as soon as he entered.
-Reginald follows him, and he starts playing solitaire.
-The fucker North Star comes in and shoots me now, then he goes upstairs at the same time Ace comes back down.
-Akira comes in and looks away from me, which was sad, but at least she didn’t shoot me over not liking my dancing.
-Lynne gets here after I get up from being shot, and she takes a seat.
-Cascabela follows and Akira grabs her and takes her to the bar.
-... A guy in a orange cat suit I have never seen before comes in and sits with Lynne, he gave -me some real bad vibes.
-The star shaped asshole comes back down and leaves. Good riddance, honestly.
-Partitio and Neil come in together, and Akira and Cascabela drag them upstairs. Pretty cute couples to be honest, too bad half of them are gonna go back to being dead after tonight.
-Roland comes in and takes a seat
-Hollywood Bowl and Pohatu arrive together and sit with Lynne
-And as I’m finishing dancing, Agent Evangeline arrives.


The last thing I did was head to the vault and start taking some silver with me, extremely important for my magic after all. I see Miss Zalsarona come in and go downstairs and Nico arrive upstairs and leave while I was doing that, and then I finish up and head back to my room

I examine the bone fragments that are apparently everywhere.

Is it possible to determine what kind of bone they're from? Does the general mass of the fragments equate to, say, a skull?

If I throw an object that's vaguely the same consistency as this loose mass of bones into the twister, do they scatter in a way reminiscent of the bones?


Nevermind, Tsavorae copped to throwing a skeleton into the weather.

- can't seem to cross the river so i loop around it to the north west
- pass by elevator as it is being taken down, don't quite see by who
- circle around the south side of the map to avoid the river
- pass by king of clubs, who gets smacked by a chair and launched into the tornado, and lynne, who just threw the chair. KoC lands on the roof of Orange
- head up eastmost side of map, bypassing the orange building, spor reginald leaving the bank which i then enter
- suit up in a cowboy outfit in the tailor
- wander around the green and blue buildings for a bit, see only atua in the chapel and the cart pushing zalsarona around the lobby. and someone dressed as wonder of u in the theater watching a movie
- leaving yhe lobby and heading southwest towards the water tower, the black horse passes overhead at some point
- the noise is here so i decide to bring the noise and toss a bomb at the already weakened supports of the tower
- the white horse (that was tied to the tower) and the cow (that the noise is atop of) both run off into the distance while zalsarona slides out of the remains of the tower, unconscious and i peek inside to read the number written inside
- walk along the south street towards the orange building, a guy in a sack mask tries to thwack me along the way
- enter carpentry and see ace ventura working on something, head to the mine to climb down the shaft and enter the secret door to the basement. the rope is snapped and kroos is KO'd below
- enter the paranormal division hq. elster is here and a cloaked figure comes in and starts shooting at us and i take a bullet, they rush towards green
- explore the basement a little bit then take a nap for the rest of the night

it looks like someone left an axe in my room. can we retrieve that and check it for use?

and to kick off any scrambling for anything swept away by the tornado, i'd like to climb up on top of each building and check out the rooftops for anything out of place

You can confirm the axe wound in your back was post-mortem. You cannot evaluate the decapitation without your head to compare the rest of the situation to.

You check both of these rooms. Nothing in particular seems to jump out at you.

You retrieve the axe and check it out. It looks like it's covered in splinters.

There is a broken chair on the roof of the Red Building, and a half-frozen horse head mask on the roof of the Blue Building. Additionally, a ladder has been nailed to the wall of the Purple Building, allowing access between the Mayor's Office and the Roof.

You look for a lore document like this in the Sheriff's Office, but find no such thing.

You look in the hole. Among the documents found there, one claims that Spencer Edwards liked to run around and dress up as ahorse.
