Look, I don't know who thought it was a good idea to rope me into this whole wedding thing, but you guys did get some good violence in there, so I can't say I'm over disappointed by how the night turned ou-

...Wait, who's dead?

Oh for fuck's sake,. @DanteFromTheDevilMayCrySeries™ appears to be dead in the Luxury Bathroom, his body badly slashed up from behind. You know, having seen what I've seen recently, this is pretty tame for once, actually.

Looks like Dante was the Ultimate Devil Hunter.

rolecard: Show

Woohoo! Jackpot! Etc, etc. You’re Dante from the Devil May Cry series, and… Yeah that’s about it. You shrug, flopping down into a chair and grabbing a slice of pizza. This is kind of how it goes, you get some dumbass phone call, show up on the scene, and then this party gets crazy, but so far there’s no crazy, and no party. Just a bunch of dudes filming things. You grab another slice of pizza as you ponder your actual abilities.

You are clad in your iconic red coat, and wielding your trusty sword, Rebellion. It’s fairly heavy, but you can swing it just fine, being half-demon and all. It’s pretty sharp too, you guess. You also don’t fear anything supernatural, as most of that stuff’s old news to you. Your real defining feature though, are your Styles. You may choose a Style from these four at the start of the game, and gain the abilities associated with it, in addition to your moderately enhanced speed, compared to a normal human.

Trickster Style: You gain the ability to instantly dash across the length of a room or hallway, travelling the length in the blink of an eye, almost like a teleport.

Royalguard Style: You gain the ability to deflect and ignore all non-surprise attacks from other players.

Swordmaster Style: You will automatically overpower any opponent you fight with your sword, regardless of their personal strength or abilities.

Gunslinger Style: Any projectile attack will never miss, as long as you have line of sight on the opponent.

ROLE BUFF: Now you may swap styles at the beginning of every night, if you please.

Forbidden Action: None

I don't exactly remember hiring him. How bizarre.

Oh well. Y'know, I wasn't expecting this whole Killing Game thing to keep going, I figured it would have stopped by now. I guess I'll have to step in and motivate you all, and what's a better motivator than self defense? If you vote for the right guy in the trial, I'll supply you with a one-use handheld taser, sure to come in handy with murderers running around.

The Map

Room Descriptions: Show

Crime Scene Set
Next to a replica police car, a grisly scene is surrounded in a barrier of police tape. A realistic mannequin lies in a dried pool of fake blood, a knife sticking out of its chest. Probably doesn't have the shocking effect it normally would, considering like 18 people have died already.

Train Set
A set decorated like an old west desert. Aside from the usual cameras and such, three train cars sit in the middle of it, each accessible from the front and back, minus the Engine Car, which you can only enter from behind. The Engine Car contains a currently nonfunctional coal furnace, as well as a shovel and pile of coal. The Dining Car contains tables and cutlery, as well as one of those fun little food carts. The Passenger Car is filled with seats, but also has a couple suitcases.

Wind Tunnel
A massive wind tunnel with fans on each side. The blades are safely behind grates, but the grates are only held on by screws. A switch on the wall can activate either fan, or both at once. It's very loud though, and while the outer walls are insulated, the Train Set is incredibly noisy when these suckers are on.

Guard Station
A small booth with a desk and an office chair. A small hole in the surrounding plexiglass barrier allows for communication with the guard inside. Currently there's no guard inside though, so good luck with that.

Central Tower
A fancy building, with an elevator in the middle. A set of stairs lead down to the Hydroelectric Tunnel, and the place is decorated with potted plants and a couch.

Elevator
It's an elevator. Similar to Studio A's Executive Building, only the buttons labeled 1F and 2F work, but there are also buttons that indicate the presence of a "3F", "4F", and "B1F". 3F and 4F seem to require a keycard to access, but B1F has a physical keyhole next to the button.

Racing Strip
A small stretch of road, with a start and finish line. Two cameras are pointed in its general direction. Who needs to actually put effort into filming a race, when you can just film both the starting line and the finish line in a couple seconds on the same couple meters of asphalt? Budgeting genius, this thing.

Garage
Yep, it's a garage. Many tools are scattered around, evidently for automotive work. A racing car sits inside, keys still in the ignition, next to a truck with the studio's branding, in the same situation. Their gas tanks appear to be full, as well.

Animatronic Lab
A very high-tech building filled with robot parts and tools, similar to the Garage. There is an animatronic Wendigo, very similar to the one in Studio A, as well as what looks to be a semi-realistic animatronic that looks like a man. A control panel on the wall appears to be able to, well, control them. The individual robot parts don't seem to be too useful, but maybe someone skilled can assemble them? They appear to respond to the control panel as well.

Cold Storage
A very cold room, filled with some perishable goods for staff parties, some substances for special effects that need to remain cold, as well as some blocks of ice and a snow machine, which appears to shred the ice into a fine powder and blow it out. The snow machine has wheels, and can be moved around, even out of the room.

Practical Effects Workshop
A room with many desks, mirrors, and makeup, including putty, a functioning 3D printer on the lower right desk, and other things needed to create prosthetics, puppets, and other practical effects, as well as just the obvious hair and makeup stuff.

Room descriptions: Show

Bedroom Halls
They're halls with bedrooms, what do you want from me, here? There's also a water cooler at the end of both halls though, complete with those little paper cones.

Awards Room
A room lined with two trophy cases, displaying a decent amount of filmmaking awards, as well as a couple other trophies, some of which look like props themselves. The cases are made of a thick, heavy wood, and would likely obliterate someone if they fell on top of them.

Screening Room
A massive screen adorns the furthest wall, and a projector sits in the center of the room, a large reel of film hooked into it. A laptop connected to it as well appears to play digital video files too, just in case. There's not much in the way of seating though, unless you're one of those weirdos who sits on the floor.

Walkways
Two walkways with worryingly thin glass walls. The floor appears nice and sturdy, but clearly these were designed with appearance in mind rather than safety. Still, if you take a bit to look outside, you can see most of the studio from here.

Editing and Effects
Four desks sit in the corners of this room, each with a super fancy PC, outfitted with the computer software needed to edit video, audio, add special effects, or even do some 3D modeling. None of them appear to be password locked, so go nuts.

Patios
Two open-air patios border Editing and Effects, likely for the staff working in Editing and Effects to get some fresh air in between working on their current projects. They're pretty high up though, so you might not want to stand too close to the edge. It might not kill you, but say goodbye to your legs, kiddo.

Sarcophagus Hall
An otherwise empty hall, but with a large, ornate Egyptian sarcophagus in the middle of it, awkwardly. The lid is astoundingly heavy, in fact, the whole thing is, which is probably why someone didn't want to carry it down the stairs.

Breakroom and Luxury Bathroom
A nice little breakroom, with a small kitchen, fridge, and stereo to listen to music while you take your break. Right next to it is the Luxury Bathroom, which contains a beautiful marble bathtub, sink, and many fancy soaps. The toilet appears to be clogged with something, but is otherwise as nice as the rest of the bathroom.

Good fucking riddance

Does this mean we can enter the old manor now?

also does the sarcophagus look like it was opened from the inside or the outside

So, definitely a suicide, right guys?

Does this mean we can enter the old manor now?

Hmmmm. Yeah, you can walk past the train into the manor, if you so desire.

The sarcophagus lid appears to have just been pushed off from the outside. Inside the sarcophagus is a mannequin wrapped in mummy bandages. It looks like at one point it was holding something.

Where was the piano? I can't believe some loudmouth would play such music at a wedding party!


...No offense to you, Alex. It's just that my fingers have been itching to play some notes for a while...

Hey, can I use my key on the hole on the elevator? Does it fit? If it did, what's down there?

Guess somebody should take initiative and try to match any knives, blades, and scissors to the deep gashes on that Dead-te guy's back.

Also check the broken glass

Well, ain't that just great? The day the great General Teddie graces you all with an appearance, some loser ups and dies! Way to take the wind out of my sails.


I started out the night by heading through the train set to the garage, where I had a pressing press appointment to make! Sadly, the contents of that meeting is extremely confidential. Gonna have to wait till it airs live on television, courtesy of InfoWars!

After that, me and the big man headed over to some sort of civilian affair. A few people were there - Coffee, Amoeba, Kaede, myself, Xavier, Alex and of course Honoka and Shoey.


Still, it got pretty interesting once the bride punched the groom! Now that's my type of wedding! The dead guy eventually showed up too, chucking pizza in everyone's face.

After the wedding started quietenin' down, I headed off. Had something I want to set up in the animatronic lab. Strictly on a need-to-know basis, very hush hush.


...Er...


...I need to drop character for a moment. I saw something seriously spooky in there! I was just taking a peek at the animatronic parts when I heard a loud roar and that weird deer-head-skull thing came down the stairs! I ran for it!


...A-ahem! That's all General Teddie has to report on today's business!

Hey, can I use my key on the hole on the elevator? Does it fit? If it did, what's down there?

You use your key on the elevator keyhole, and ride down to the basement. Stepping out of the Elevator, you see a hallway, with stairs going further down at the end. A side path branches off, that leads to a door labeled SECURITY ROOM.

Down the stairs at the end is another door, but it appears to be locked with a fingerprint scanner.

Guess somebody should take initiative and try to match any knives, blades, and scissors to the deep gashes on that Dead-te guy's back.

None of the kitchen knives appear to match the wound, nor does anything bladed from the Garage or the Practical Effects Workshop. You can't compare it to the knife from the Crime Scene Set, as it has gone MIA.

Hey, you! Director! I'd like to investigate the crime scene! I'd like to take a close look at the body, to see if there's any other wounds. I'd also like to check the toilet, and the bathroom in general.

I'd also like to see if there's signs of any blood in the breakroom.

Taking a look over into the Bathroom, you see that its mostly untouched, minus the blood everywhere. The sink is full of water, but turned off, as is the bathtub.

Dante is slumped over the toilet, and when you lift up his body, you notice the toilet is filled with vomit, beer, and something with a chemical odor. Dante himself has several large gashes down his back, and appears to have died of blood loss. There's also a large red welt on his face, as if he was hit with something.

The breakroom is largely blood free, bar a small trail leading just out the bathroom door.

Fine, guess I'll leave bears out of my account, too!


Coffee's going downstairs. Normally I'd say something like "fuck that guy" but he doesn't deserve it. Fuck that guy, how dare he not deserve it!
Somebody's under the west side walkway.
Then Gnome stabs me in the ass with scissors on the walk way. Thanks, Gnome.
Dante and Amoeba are baking or some shit in the break room.

EDIT:
Amoeba hit me with a frying pan.
And as I was leaving the bathroom, I pass by Shroomguy as he enters.
Wow! That changes everything!

Oh, I bump into that silly Producer flirting with Liz near the Crime Scene Set.
And then I take a conscious decision to sit in the police car completley unrelated to avoiding an ass kicking.
They both go into that Central Tower.

And then I go into the tower. Shroomguy's finally woken up from his eternal slumber and exits the elevator!
And then Amoeba goes into the elevator with a bunch of dishes.

And then Alex Jones comes in and I kill the shit outta him!

...

...

Oh, and then I pass out due to nothing related to another bear.

I guess I can tell you all about my night, it was pretty great.

I had the night off from work, nothing needed shooting down so I just hung around the studio tonight. I met up with Liz at the guard station and hung out there for a while until Kaede showed up and asked her if she wanted to go to the wedding. She said she couldn't since she was on guard duty and I wanted to just hang out with Liz so I didn't bother going either. After some more time, that fucking bear showed up, TOM, and I immediately hit him with my gun and punched him in the face. Instinct, I guess. Or vengeance, they both work.

I guess I spooked him cause he ran out to the police car and hid inside. Liz must have been pretty unwilling to look at him too cause she left while I was kicking the shit out of TOM. I decided she could handle herself, she's armed too after all, and walked to the Screening room. I saw MCD and Trip inside watching some kind of show, and saw Terezi knocked out on the floor. That looked kind of suspicious, so I hung out in a chair in the back of the room in case anything else went down. I guess the show put me to sleep at some point, though. Must not have been very good.

And that was my night.

First, there's a good amount of marks on you from where I kicked your ass, as well as a witness. I can recreate what happened to you if you happened to forget. And hanging out with a coworker isn't flirting.

I did it! I'm married! Shoey and I are happily wedded and neither of us is a widow/widower the same night!

Sucks to be Dante though.

First off, I woke up and found that Smasher was missing, along with her lamppost. Bizarre! Still, though, it was time for my wedding. So I put on my wedding dress to look the part, and stepped outside to wait for Alex Jones! Who wasn't there. C'mon, man. I went out and saw Xavier on the walkway, where I decided it was time to work on the wedding. Grabbing Xavier, I drag him downstairs to the racing strip, where we've already got my maid of honor Kaede, as well as our baker Amoeba! And also Coffee too I guess. There's some food and drink, but I'm too busy nervously walking Xavier through wedding practices, making sure that he doesn't even think about using the Atuan wedding scripts.

Pretty soon, Shoey shows up! He slaps Coffee, establishing dominance, and then joins me as Xavier starts the ceremony off. Alex Jones appears as Xavier finishes the boilerplate, and gives his best man speech. Halfway through the speech, he calls me and Shoey over, and I prepare to punch him in the face. Atuan wedding ceremonies require the bride to ritualistically kill one wedding guest, so to prevent my dad from getting TOO pissed off about cultural rejection on my wedding day, I prepare to punch Alex Jones in the face!

Then everyone is Alex Jones.

Trying to punch the right Alex Jones, I end up punching Shoey. Well... he'll understand! Alex also punches Shoey, and then toasts him. With that, it's time for our vows! Mine are "I was locked in a studio run by an insane bear hellbent on murder, but instead, I found love. I believe we'll escape this studio together, and that our romance will survive whatever might be thrown at us. Shoey, I, Honoka Kosakatua, will happily marry you." and I'll let Shoey post his own if he'd like. We kiss, sealing the deal. Alex plays some music and heads to the central tower, Shroomguy appears ready to party, and Dante leaps down to throw pizza at everyone. Amoeba goes off to the central tower as well with everyone's dishes.

Since Shoey is extra drunk and just chased Dante out, I decide it's time for our honeymoon. I pick up Shoey as Teddie gives me some glasses, and carry him over to the train set, where we celebrate our marriage by going through other people's luggage in the passenger car. Next, I indulge myself by feeding Shoey multiple cakes in the Dining Car, a truly romantic gesture. And finally, we go to the engine car. Luckily for me, the shovel is still there, and I pick it up, feeling myself return to full strength. I promptly celebrate by shoveling a whole lot of coal and starting up the engine, grabbing my one true love close as I drive it through the wall and into the manor. This knocks me the fuck out and I spend the rest of the night unconscious with Shoey.

I'd like to compare Gnome's scissors to the wounds on Dante.

Additionally, I'd like to use one of the many knives around to cut open Dante's stomach and see what's inside.

Has gnome given you permission?

Additionally, I'd like to use one of the many knives around to cut open Dante's stomach and see what's inside.

You cut open Dante's stomach and examine the contents. Chewed up cake, a very strong beer, and a strange chemical are inside. It has a sharp, powerful smell.
