(You will all receive your starting kits for your talents during the daily life, as well as a list of your skills.)




Your groggy, tired eyes slowly open, world a gentle blur of... grey..? As they finally focus, your eyes are drawn to small tufts of grass poking out of cracked asphalt. AN electric fence surrounds a large, expansive yard with basketball hoops, baseball equipment, and a track running around the edge. The sky is cloudy, a soft quarter moon looming above with few stars and a gentle breeze. You all appear to have large metal clamps around your mid-sections, preventing you from getting up off of the ground. Just as you are about to panic and start screaming, you all hear the soft clip-clop of ... hooves...? At the entrance tot he building, which has barred windows and doors, as well as several floors... there is a screen. it displays a sunny meadow with butterflies, and is large enough to cover the door. Standing in front of it is... a deer?

The voice that comes out of the deer seems rather mechanical at first, but adjusts to a natural pitch.

"H-h-hello everyone! Welcome to your new home!"

Of course, at your rather confused stares, the deer speaks yet again.
"You have all been brought here to live as any criminal should! In a prison- but should you redeem yourselves by upholding the rules, you'll be able to have much nicer places to roam around in!"

With that, the deer stepped out of the way of the monitor in front of the door and the rules were displayed.

1. Vandalism of the property is prohibited and shall be punished accordingly.
2. Leaving the premises without the permission of the host is prohibited and will be punished accordingly.
3. Please do not litter. If you see any trash, pick it up!
4. Electronic handbooks with information will be handed out. This will have your personal information, as well as some information about the others here in it.  You may not lend your handbook to anyone else.
5. If you are sleeping at any time, please sleep in your cell. The only exception to this is if you are receiving medical treatment.
6. Two people may not share a cell unless only one of them is sleeping on the bed. Hope ya' like concrete!
7. Killing each other is prohibited and will be handled with a trial.
8. Only two people may be killed at any time by a murderer. 
9. When a body is discovered, everyone's E-handbook will vibrate nonstop with a notification, and a map showing where the students who found it are.

Prison Trials

Before a trial, all of you will be able to investigate up to two rooms as you please. This also means you can investigate hallways and entry ways. Please understand that just looking at the room will tell you very little. Ask questions.

If you are investigating a body, however, you will only be allowed to investigate one room after that. After everyone believes that they have collected substantial evidence to figure out who the killer is, the trial begins.

1. During a trial, you will all stand at a podium within a bullet proof glass container. Attempting to leave the podium will result in severe punishment. The front of the podium, facing towards the center, will not have glass.
2. You must present evidence you have found and use that as well as testimonies in the trial.
3.  After everyone has pointed fingers, lied, and presented all the evidence they think is relevant, you will vote for who the killer is. The people who voted incorrectly will be executed, and those that voted correctly will be able to progress through the building. This way there aren't any sheep voters clinging to someone for safety. Think before you vote. Voting is Mandatory.
3. (A) This voting process does not apply to the blackened. They do not need to vote correctly to progress; they need to survive the trial.
4. All survivors who make it to the final floor of the building will be able to leave, and have questions answered.

Release


As the deer finishes reading everything off to you and prances about with flee, the restraints on all of you slowly sink into the floor and you can move freely. The deer doesn't even seem to understand most of what it read, it seems, as it's just prancing about playfully right now. One of its eyes appears to be flickering though...? A still image is in it, but it fades very quickly.

You are all free to explore and socialize.


(you will all start in area 10. The mystery area is a public shower, with different times for men and woman. I will update you on these times VIA events. Area two of floor one can be unlocked VIA a special event, but is currently unavailable.)




(Thank you for working on this wonderful map, Alu!)


((During daily life, all players can perform up to six actions.))

[Eden]

"Where am I! I was just at my camp and how did I get here??? you deer I ask you with as a knight with everything that true shovelry means where is shiel my shield wielding companion. ..

[Deleted]

"Hmm... I see... Then if that's the case..."

Kazuichi paused as if collecting his thoughts before letting out a bloodcurdling scream.




UWAAAHHHHH! What the hell is thaaaaat!?"

As opposed to his surroundings, Kazuichi was mostly focused on the mechanical deer. Perhaps because of his SHSL talent, or just because of how strange it was to be captured by a mechanical deer. Or so he assumed.



"It's not cool to play a trick like this, y'know! Someone might think it's serious! Where'dya find a robot like that anyway!? That thing looks nearly real!"

[bootz]

She'd place her hands on her face, slowly rubbing upwards and downwards, waking herself up. She'd notice she's in a metal containment facility, from what the outrageous deer was announcing as a prison. She'd giggle before realizing something, then placing her finger on the side of her lip.

Kazuichi began to get annoyed at the stunned silence and offered up another statement.

"I'd try to get closer to that deer, but somethin' ain't right about it. I'd totally pull it apart if I could, but you might never hear from me again if I did that."



"It's gotta be radio controlled. Meaning someone in the area probably knows more than the rest of us. But like, are they here or at a nearby location?"

[Deleted]

((everyone, if you have suggestions for abilities/passives/equipment for you talent- please let me know.))

As the deer prances around, it stops every now and then and sits by someone before shouting a specific word to them. After this, there is a soft jingle from it.

"Da dada Da~ Your handbooks have been delivered to your cells! You will find a key in each cell, so please do not lose them."

[Homin Muz]

Aqua stares intently at the deer, before walking off to his cell.

[bootz]

As Aoi walked to her cell, she slowly pace down the hall. Her fingers, slowly dragging along the wall, as she followed the map to her cell, located on the second floor of the cell hall. Sitting down on the cold mattress, slightly brown on the side. The cold metal from the mattress freezing her warm, delicate legs. She lied down on the bed, shuffling her feet into a comfortable position, wondering where her key was.


" Here it is. It's in the stuffing of my pillow. Well that's quite weird, placing something so important as a key there; well... can't be bother by that. Now for the handbook"

Then getting up from what seemed for her, to be quite a comfortable bed, she bend down crouching on the cold cobble floors of the containment facility. Pressing her fingers against the cracks, looking in the toilet that was directed towards a more public approach with no sense of privacy. Even though Aoi was quite mental she understood the fact, that even using the bathroom this way was shameful.

Closing the toilet seat, she'd see the handbook located just next to the rust. A smear of poop, sat next to handbook, flies swarming around it like vultures around a dead carcass. She'd slowly placing her hands on the handbook, would remove it from the toilet seat.


"Oh really, now this is disrespectful. Where is the common decency, I mean if were going to be tortured and destroyed, at least let it be in the classical sense of comfort.

[Hansbulla]

Maarku thought the situation over in his head. It was obviously going to be difficult to survive.

"We will be freed..." he said quietly to himself, before leaving the Yard.

[Monotaro]

"W-we're trapped here?! N-No...!"

However, when Mikan suddenly noticed Rule 5 on the monitor at the yard, she became incredibly relieved.

"Ah, so this place allows for medical treatment! That must mean there's medical equipment around here somewhere! I finally can be useful!"

"Umm...I suppose I will go and look for this medical equipment, to see how much I am capable of helping..."

After saying these words, Mikan left the yard.

[Deleted]

"Medical gear, huh? I get it. Since you're a nurse, that'd make sense."

"If you're doin' that, I think I'll head off and make myself useful too. We gotta stick together, y'know? Maybe there are spare parts around here. It's a prison building, so it should have some older surveillance gear that's been outta use a while."

 

"Yeah! As long nobody mentions robotic deer to me for the next couple hours, I'm totally gonna be like... the leader of the gang! Machines can't keep me down! I'm the Ultimate Mechanic, Kazuichi Souda!"

Feeling proud of his "cool line", Kazuichi headed off into the building with a mix of excitement and fear. But as far as anyone else knew now, he was the coolest person in this place... right?

[Jay Braavs]

Jay looked at everyone, shook his head, then went off to explore the prison.

[Galvin Roe]

What was . . . happening? Yes, what in the world was going on?

Galvin had recently been requested to cater and preside over some minor details of some kind of reunion. A highschool reunion? The ceremony master felt it all as a distant fog, had he been drugged somehow? Had someone slipped something into the tea . . .

No, no memory was starting come back to those bleary green eyes, even as they began processing his surroundings. It was all so . . . fuzzy though, he'd had a stroke? Or some kind of seizure!!? By the stars, he was too young for that kind of bad health, wasn't he?

Dysphoria set in as something odd was making noise off in the distance; and the surroundings . . . where was he, no . . . no, where were THEY? All around him the clink of metal was heard and a sudden uneasy pressure around his mid section was released. Bodies rising from the ground, meandering about . . . A PRISON YARD?

He took a second to calm his breathing forcing himself into lotus position. Focus, breathe, breathe. He let his mind wander away from emotion, review the facts. How could he know this was a prison yard? Then the half blurred voice from before came back in snippets. Someone had told him.

It took a few minutes but if someone were to harm him now . . . why wouldn't they have done it already, as numbness and panic subsided he realized that in its own right he had already been injured, feeling at the bruising and chafing around his midsection where shackles had been, then, up to his head. The right side of his head was crusted over with dried blood, that must have . . . no, no it was a purple mist and he'd fallen. Could that be where this injury came from.

Suddenly a DEER was in front of him . . . Pinging at him. To his cell? That sent waves of gooseflesh down spine and arms. What kind of sick game was being played here.

He had to be out of HERE; blinking rapidly he made his way towards the only exit in the yard, a small thought in the back of his mind indicated there was something missing, the familiar weight of his tea sets on his back. That was a lifetime ago now and his concerns of having a decent day had changed to . . . survival.

He had to find a way out, but maybe . . . maybe cleaning off his head had to come first.

As he passed into the hallway light caught the ornament given to him by Lady Azure, that revered tea master and geomantic demi-god. For half a second he wanted to rip it out, that life of striving for self perfection and perfection of tea was gone. And he crumpled into the cross-passages, as tears came unbidden to those viridian eyes. His hand fell from the bauble slowly and it tinkled against the concrete.

[crystal]

Crystal stared at that deer looking really confused.

"This is not fair. You can't make us kill eachother"

She gripped her fishing rod and glared at everyone

"I don't trust you now so if you come near me there will be trouble."

[Arckas]

I was panicked first, but then a timid fawn just told ordained the rules of a killing game.

Now I'm terrified.


Trigger walks around the basketball field turned prison, noting the electric fence.


This place... It doesn't exactly look like it was a prison at first, but retrofitted to be one.
Looks off at the deer, then to everyone still remaining

Well it looks like were going to be hear for a while, whether we like it or.. well I doubt anyone likes this. This is our world now, let's make the best of it.


Trigger turns to explore other places of the courtyard
