Tanuchan

OOC Yes, I think it is It helps our the RP also, nice idea you had!! IC A soft voice behind her startles Hisoka, who automatically covers her diary. Turning, she meets Akane's eyes. She can see the deep sorrow there for a moment. I wouldn't wish for death so easily, Hisoka-san. As Iago-san and my lord say, there are ... beasts... among us. *sighs* You are right, of course, there's no honor living like this, pointing out people do die just because they are strangers. But we have to root out the evil amongst us. And we have no other lead than what we ourselves say. If we just keep silent, suspecting but not talking... or rightly offended but choosing silence's wisdom to avoid words we can repent... we just help the Hygenkyoi. If we don't speak our mind, we don't give grounds for a fair voting... if there's no voting, innocents we could help will die. It is a hard choice the one that is upon us. *looks at Lord Iago, who's just retiring to bed* He's a wise man. I just hope others see that in him. Akane touches Hisoka's shoulder for just a moment. There are honorable people among us. There are those who can help. But we must also help them. True peace will come from our wish to be fair and protect the innocent. *notices Washima's eyes on her* I must go, my lord calls me. Have a good night, Hisoka-san.

OOC I do agree with Lady Celes

Noticing the late arrival of Terauchi Eiji, Akane flashes him a questioning look while awaiting Ishikawa-san's reaction to having his honor put in doubt. OOC Sorry, Vlad. But I hope to see you next game

Akane sighs, looking at one and other. *thinking* I don't want to accuse someone innocent either... there's no honor in accusing without reason... but there's no honor either in running away from the decision. What happens to those who are so silent? I just cannot believe a son would kill his own father. A samurai who should hold honor high. Or a tourist just because he is a stranger in our lands. What am I to do? Can I accuse someone who refuses to speak? That's worse than accusing strangers... I am sorry Ishikawa-san... I don't like accusing people because they are strangers. But it's very strange indeed that you haven't yet seen the large golden buddha, the first place in the Kaga province that everyone visits. OOC a vote for Ishikawa-san/Vlad

OOC Yes you did

*shudders* Shapechangers... thanks for clarifying me, my lord. And so we must observe... and consider who is not what he seems to be. *nods lightly* So I'll observe a bit more... and listen also.

Akemi's face can't hide her shock and she turns to Lord Iago before she can control herself. Wolves? Lord Iago, are you sure this is not just a tale? How can one of us here become such savage beast? There's honor in this table. If one of us could kill, it would be in honor and not in treachery! She catches her breath, blushing for her impulsive talk. Then, recovering her self-possession, keeps to herself her next thougths. "Honorable... but not all of us. That, I do know."

A young and graceful woman looks discreetly around, examining the faces of the other guests. There's a small frown for a moment, soon smoothed. *to herself* A murder! By ninjas, of all things?! I do think Mizuhara-san has maybe drunk a little too much. She turns to the man at her side, who also seems to be scanning the guests. *murmurs to Washima* Ninjas... is that possible, my lord? The Elder Eijiro didn't represent that much trouble... though his death is troublesome. Her face shows just a hint of surprise, but her eyes flash for a moment revealing shock.

Dean, I do believe Damon Inferel has chosen a name (Kyosuke) although his status is unknown

Well this is up to Dean to rule, but my opinion is that it shouldn't happen. It goes very close to PMing in-game and talking after dead. Also, I would like just a clarification/update on rules... is the Baner allowed to bane themselves? As I understand s/he can... but the rules posted say otherwise. And I believe a wolf baned means also no attack that night. Also agree with Lady Celes The more the merrier; I've played already with 15 and was really cool!

Getting the seer was a complete surprise for us. Deg's merit as he suggested it It was a shame he got lynched next... You're a dangerous lady... But I do have some ideas also on my character for next... hope it works!

Why, thank you m'lady Celes It was fun RPing with you, you caught so well the kind of relationship I was imagining between Tanny the barmaid and Lady Celes the inn's owner! It was really a shame I was the wolf and *had* to kill you!! As two women in Feudal Japan (my vote too for the next) maybe we'll have chance to do something like that... just hope you won't be a wolf... lol

Hey Nave, do you remember this: Hmm??

I swear I'll kill you for that Nave Ooops... better not saying it so loud... :D It seems we'll be having a fine team of players in Feudal Japan!!! :wizzie: Let's go hunting!! The more the better...

So... please I do beg ... don't try anything like seppuku to prove you're an honorable man and not a wolf, hm? I'd like to see more of you around... more than 1st round anyway!

I thought you did fine Saber Ditto You know, you did get my packmate in a lucky (er... depending on the point of view... ) vote and made it all the more difficult for me. You were convincing as the village drunk. The fact that last round you sided with the wolf doesn't mean you didn't do well As "Tanny-the-wolf" said, it was guts and no reason. There was no way to know which was the "right" side. So let's go on ... to feudal Japan, as it seems!

Ouch! OUch! OUCh! Sorry m'lady, sorry... ouch! Please control yourself!!! SORRY! *puffs, draws a breath* Aww... I'm glad I pulled you out before the lynching... I'd rather be speared than get this spank... OUCH!

Just j/k I trust you, that is, until the moment we step into a game

*waving both hands to catch the mod's attention* Here! Here! Cast my vote, too Tanny

Great game and roleplay everybody!! I could feel Nave's glare from his glum posts... and Mira's anger! It was really good! It was fun playing the wolf, but very difficult for me since you killed Deg by chance in the very beginning. And as my first wolf ever, I'm glad I could bring it to this point. If I had not been foiled by Bane, I think I had a chance of at least bringing it to a stalemate between me and the baner... Telling the truth, Mira being the baner got me surprised (quite shocked ); I was betting on Nave. So I really thought I had been baned that night, so I claimed to be the baner. Dean, thank you for Tanny's death scene I see also that she spared Sabre, who voted against Nave - I would have asked so from you. And thanks so much for bearing with my talkative self I had LOADS of fun !! Thank you all and bear (not wolf... ) hugs to each and all! Oh, I'll be signing up for next round, too. Just hope you don't go after me in first round thinking to get a wolf... Tanny

OOC 5 votes? IC *to Sabre* A reasonable argument... either for an innocent or for a wolf. He knows that just you shifting votes will keep the tie but without him as a target for double lynching... *resigned* I will still tie my vote to Sabre's, for it's understandable that I don't want to die by your hands. *looks at Nave* Claws, maybe... not hands anyway. OOC edit Provided that Sabre don't shift votes to me, sure...

Who is to say who's the true wolf here? No one of us four trusts the other, that is clear. We're all trying to survive. If you want to call me wolf because I'd rather live, then all of us are wolves! *sighs, shakes her head* Maybe we are. Wolves, all. A week ago... we were all friends. With small grudges but friends anyway. We'd protect the other's back without being asked. Look at what we do now... we'd backstab each other to be sure he'd not kill us. Wolf? One of us, by nature, certainly. But all have become wolves through the darkness we bring in us. The true wolf is at least following its nature... it's more innocent than us. We took lives for suspicion only. It's disgusting. Dying by the claws of a wolf is cleaner than this! *glares* So we wait. At night it'll be over.

*nods* As I said, I'll vote with you. I know you don't trust me, Sabre... but I thank you the same. OOC A vote for Nave

OOC Oh well... obscenely drunk was what got "you" lynched anyway... It was nice playing with you Damon, even if you couldn't be here for your lynching... I do hope we can meet in other games/RPing

Point taken about survival... and for the odds being favorable to us. But then you can't blame it on me for wanting to survive a lynching; I'd rather be killed by a wolf than by people with whom I've been sharing a lifetime! And I didn't expect you to change your vote either, Nave... it's much better than being the target, it's safer... right? Then... it seems that we must wait for another's decision. *turns to Sabre* If you think I'm the wolf, then there's nothing else I can do -- I tried my best. If you think I'm not, then I'll vote with you. I don't really think it's Mira, despite my initial votings; he may be the baner or not... but as for wolf, I'd suspect Nave more than him. *gently* And in this I agree with Nave... go with your guts, Sabre. There's no reason working here anymore.
