The party journeyed all day without seeing another living creature. They eventually reached the top of the mountain as it got dark and settled in for an uneasy sleep.

Night ends in:

The party woke up early the following day and noticed that No One had died overnight. As they rounded the last crest of the mountain they noticed before them a huge Gothic style castle. They approached it as as they got to the front steps the door swung open on it's own. Warily the party ventured in.

The party has discovered Starvald Castle. All players gain 1 xp

Day 10 begins

lol it’s just Muffin, he was in jail last night. I know it’s not the most exciting power. I don’t really think he was attacked so I think the roleblock part is what stopped the kill not the protect

I knew what I wanted to do anyway but I figured I’d make everyone list some names so I didn’t risk the protect interfering but I think that made it really clear to any other potential scum that Muffin should never be the kill.

I also think I bullshitted around enough to make it seem like this was an investigative power and not a jailkeep so I doubt no kill was submitted on purpose.

I’m pretty confident on this

The party walked cautiously in the castle. Light shone from the torches in the scones but not everywhere was well lit and many areas was in shadows. As the party entered a long hallway, Muffin stepped into a shadowed corner on accident. Two THAWNGs were clearly heard and when the party looked around they saw two arrows sticking in Muffin who fell forward dead.

Muffin has died!

The party mourned their friend who had made it this far. However they knew they must carry up and so they continued walking up the hallway to the large room they could see at the end.

Night will end when all actions are in (and after I have finished cooking and eating dinner) or at the timer, whichever comes first.

The remaining members of the party entered the Grand Hall. As soon as they entered, ominous and epic music started being played out of the organs (by who no one could tell).
FINAL BOSS BATTLE

Chuggs and melon were momentarily stunned when Sorian stepped in front of them. They were even more stunned when Sorian moved faster than either one of them could comprehend and stabbed Chuggs in the chest with his daggers. Chuggs appeared like he was trying to say something but couldn't before death took him.

Chuggernaut has died!

Melon drew their knives and started attacking Sorian. Rogue versus Assassin they were well matched and sparks flew as their daggers frequently intercepted each other. However as the big bad only having melon left was not going to be enough to overtake Sorian, he had too many abilities to draw on. Eventually melon started to take a few more scratches and cuts and started slowing down which gave Sorian the opportunity to rush in and stab melon with both daggers in the chest.

melon has died!

Sorian stood over his vanquished foes, triumphant in his victory. There had been a number of close calls along the way but there would be no save scumming in this game. He left his castle and using his Dark Powers transported himself to Aeredale. From there he took over the population and had his minions spread across the land giving him dominion over all. But a new band of adventurers were already gathering to put an end to his reign.

Secret Chrono Fantasy Trail will return.

Sorian has won!

I hope everyone (mostly) enjoyed themselves. It was fun running a game again although I really wish I had been playing with all of you at the same time.

I don't think so, I see the master forum was moved to completed but I still only see this and scum chat inside.

I'm so tired, I had a lot of fun but the early imbalance of teams when we all started dying really hurt the pacing at the end.

Well played scum, it really was an swingy game. At first very pro scum, then pro town and hard fought to the end!!

I'm glad I took part, thanks to the game runners and watchers. The flavor was fun to read to. Looking forward to the next entry in this epic saga.

You all didn't get to cash in on any of the extra kill opportunities. I didn't expect you all to get all of them but I expected at least one to hit for you.

This fucking game dude.

Never town read me again.
You were my biggest issue in the last couple days to be honest. The poison was really the smoking gun at the end and you were the only one really questioning it.

Also I didn't blog about it in the scum chat but props to Geno for just soul reading that scum could share exp and that it was posted in the scum chat. I truly just believed he might have been able to read our chat or something.

Who poisoned Blarg?????
It was just me, we rushed my poison skill for the extra kill and then we didn't even get an extra kill out of it because of turmoil lol

I think I said as much in scum chat but I was thrilled to poison Blarg :D

Just to be clear, when I say imbalance, I'm just referring to town's literal perfect plays with alignment check, protect, and vigilante. So that's nothing on balance game-wise, that was just good play vs. our regular play.

I can tell you are having fun. Just for whatever you are doing. I could see shop nights 1-4 for a little bit but then they all disappeared just now with night 2 disappearing last.

If the egg hatched it was going to give anyone who did not vote for him (i.e. being nice) an extra 1 xp. It was supposed to be a way for people who were behind their xp curves or who had visited Nat to get a little boost.
 
Well done for winning Sorian and well done for hanging on till the end to the surviving town, last couple days seemed pretty draining

Ahhhh lol okay. I legitimately was losing my mind when he claimed, it was so funny lmao I had fun reading the game but I really wanted to be in the game in that moment, it was too good lmao. TWE leaving the gongaga reference in the day open letter was peak too lmao

Yeah they had everything go right for them and you all had everything go wrong really. Even from the start, you totally guessed that either you or Chuggs would be checked N1 hence the switch but then you killed the person who did the check.
 
Congrats to Sorian and the wolf team! You somehow managed to bring it back from a really rough state by the middle point by planning out a path forward and executing on it despite some bumps in the road. Fantastic play~

I'll say town had a good game too, despite the result. Absolutely crushed it with PR use and v solid solving at parts. The issue was finding each other in such a large, sometimes confusing setup, imo. Here's hoping you had fun nonetheless, despite the understandable exhaustion of almost a month of play.

And shoutout to Hedin too! He put a frankly ridiculous amount of time and effort into the design and running of this game, you have to applaud the dedication.

GG Sorian, well played everyone! Fun game to watch, though definitely hair pulling at times from the birds eye view lol. Hopefully everyone had fun at least, makes me want to still run my X Files game some time...

Oh right Easter Egg was pitched as Vanilla as first. I suggested and approved the role you all saw.

And I'd do it again.
Yeah you correctly mentioned that a vanilla is a role madness game would have been a crappy role to have.
 
Congratulations scum.


I can’t help but feel that outside of my redcheck I collossally misplayed my role.

cheers everyone though. Super fun time!
 

Hawthorn

I'll explain my reasons later
Incredibly fun game to read, very good play by all three factions, and congrats Sorian! I binged the thread a couple days ago and was following along since then. I was convinced that Chuggs was mafia, partly because of Alexem claiming he used a lie detector on his fruit post. What was with that?!

I hope you all enjoyed yourself as much as I did reading it, can't wait to go see those secret threads <3

Any other good items in there? I noticed you said my shop selection happened to be bad.
There was the ability to make someone loved or hated, a BP vest, anti poison, a way to get out of the thunderdome, double vote, and XP bonus.
 

Hawthorn

I'll explain my reasons later
Also never would have guessed that mafia sharing xp was real. I thought town was on a real red herring with that!
 

Alexem

Yeah, I'm town
Well there's something to wake up to! Really didn't think a scum win was do-able five phases ago, but I'm glad Sorian proved me wrong about that. Well done to town, though - during that run from D3-5 you did a great job of shutting our plans down. If I'd been the last one standing I don't think I'd have managed to talk my way to the end, so I'm just pleased the D5 bus worked!

I was convinced that Chuggs was mafia, partly because of Alexem claiming he used a lie detector on his fruit post. What was with that?!
That's pretty much exactly what I was going for - I thought it'd buy me some time as a fake claim, then possibly make town think that I was covering for a teammate and set up a chain vote on Chuggs when I flipped red.
 
Congrats to the scum team, you played great. I was super wrong on Ty but I'll say I fucking knew this was gonna be the first post on scum chat and not in the Role PM.

GG well played everyone!
Well done on eeking out a win from a very rough mid-game state Sorian, that was impressive to watch. It took a lot of patience to keep your cool with the nin thunderdome and melon's claim not quite lining up with your own.
Echoing Alex town definitely had us on the ropes and picked up some fairly insightful town tells on each other that left very little breathing room, so getting offed earlier than expected did provide some relief.
Thanks Hedin for running, the xp mechanic was a fun twist on the formula!
