We're just trying to lull you into a false sense of security with the sudden silence. Bwahahahaha....
![]() EDIT: x'd with a Finn, a tricksy person, and an idiot. Not necessarily in that order.

Aw look, phantom's kissing up to me. I rock.
![]() No idea who to vote for. It seems like most of the top candidates for lynching aren't even here, which makes me nervous.

Deadline. Silence.
Inziladun is lynched. I don't have a narration ready and that will take a while. Since I hate leaving people waiting (*glares at the people who know who they are*). I will tell you now that Inziladun was a...dum, dum dum, ordo.

The D-league vs. The Dark Monarch
Volume 1, Issue 9: Lights off After much debate and many retracted votes later, the heroes made their choice, Inziladun would die. "I'm telling you I am innocent!" cried Inziladun. "That's what they all say." said alona. .newreN deksa ".epor on dah ew dias motnahp eht ?mih llik ew od woH" "That light bulb is going to go out" Inziladun pointed to the bulb above Brinn's head. "Right...now." The bulb went out. "See I can still be of use to all of you!?" "Yes you can!" said sally, and a bulb went off in sally's head. "Isn't there a ridiculously large glass bowl in the kitchen?" "Yes. Yes there is!" said Mac. He caught onto sally's plan and ran to fetch the large glass bowl. "Ok, we will need some water, wire, and potatoes." said sally giving orders and her fellow heroes listened. Shasta and the phantom took hold of Inziladun, who had no clue what was happening. "What? What do you guys want to do to me! I'm telling you I'm innocent!" All the materials were gathered and sally wrapped the wire around Inzildun's legged, hooked him up to a bunch of potatoes, that were soaking in a bowl of water. the phantom and Shasta placed the glass bowl over Inziladun, and all the heroes watched him begin to glow. He let off a bright, radiant light, that lit up the entire room and the light even burst out the windows. "There, now let's see his pals, and that bear try to attack us at night! With the light that Inziladun gives off, they won't dare come out at night!" said morm as sally was laughing at the genius of her plan. Then Inziladun began to flicker. From inside the glass the heroes could hear a faint "I'm out in...3...2...1 and -" Inziladun had burnt out. "For being Dr. Electron, and having such expertise with lightbulbs, he made a really useless one." said Durelin. The heroes gathered around the glass bowl, waiting to see if Inziladun had transformed. He had not, Dun, was an ordo and he had blown out.

The D-league vs. The Dark Monarch
Volume I, Issue 10: Meeting the Monarch It was a dark night, darker than most, as Gust, Pain and Firefly entered the Dark Monarch’s evil lair. It was a pretty lair, not one of those gross underground caves with bats or creepy crawlies. It was basically a big round room with a large spiral staircase and beautiful black and dark blue accents. As they moved to the center of the round room they looked around nervously. After a long moment they heard an eery, but familiar, rustling sound along with the sound of quick footsteps. After a short silence she appeared, in all her evilness, at the top of the stairs. She wasn’t overly tall; actually she was fairly small considering how powerful she was. She had very long, almost black hair and striking green eyes. Her wings were magnificently huge, almost twice her size, and crazy dark, like ever present shadows. “You’re late.” She said sternly as her wings fluttered closed and then opened again, which they tended to do sometimes. Her three minions all started apologising and pointing fingers at each other. “Oh, shut up.” She barked as she jumped up and flew down the stairs, resting right in front of them with a sneer and a twitch of her wings. “So, you know who I’ve decided on tonight.” she continued, suddenly sounding kind of sweet, as she paced in front of the three trembling villains. A paper crinkling sound came from her pocket as she walked slowly and continued to speak. “You have very specific instructions to follow regarding him, for he’s very special." A pause. "Well not in the same way that some of those other so called heroes are, but in a different way, which doesn’t concern you.” As she said this, a quick blush ran across her cheeks and her hand went to her pocket for a moment, but then she quickly composed herself and continued to frown at her followers. Her shadowy wings closed and opened again, fluttering a bit before returning to their proper position. “Anyway, enough talk. You all know what to do, so go do it!” She said, as she stopped and drew very close to Pain. She said the following three words louder, dropping her sweet tone, as she poked a slender finger at each of them in turn. “DON’T - SCREW - UP!” They all bowed and mumbled something along the lines of “Yes, Dark Monarch, as you wish.” before turning and hurrying out the door. The evil ruler stood there firmly, watching them leave and then flew off to continue her plotting in peace. ~~ Around this same time, not too far away, Candor Man was relaxing in his room at the B&B. He had had quite a stressful day and was looking forward to a good night’s sleep. Suddenly a large racket could be heard outside his room and three people burst in and then shut the door behind them. They stared at him curiously. “Do you three make that much noise every night?” he asked them. “Actually that time was pretty quiet.” Firefly responded, looking pretty proud as the other two nodded, each of them had pretty goofy grins on their faces. “How on earth does no one hear that?” Candor Man asked, mostly to himself. He then stood there, just staring at the three who he presumed were here to kill him. A few moments went by, and nothing happened. “I have to be honest with you three now, because that is what I do.” he looked intently at them and then continued. “But you three are really starting to creep me out. Can you just kill me and get it over with already?” The three villains started looking at each other, almost as if they were trying to evaluate the level of creepiness of the other two. Another moment of silence, then Gust decided to speak up. “Well, it’s just that our boss gave us really specific instructions involving you so we’re trying to figure out the best way to accomplish it.” Candor Man looked slightly giddy for a moment at the mention of their boss, but he quickly composed himself. The villains didn’t seem to notice his slight change in demeanour. He cleared his throat and said, “Alright, well whatever you gotta do get it over with.” ~~ Brinn was down in the kitchen, she was hungry for a little snack, and having a craving for fish. She searched the B&B kitchen and found some fresh looking tilapia. "Mmm...this looks good." She got out turned on one of the burners and went to find a pan. Right behind her was one of the heroes. "You?" asked Brinn a little surprised. "What are you doing up?" "I could ask the same from you." said the hero smiling. "I won't, because I am much happier today. I smelled tilapia. My favorite! Such a mild taste, there really is no fishy taste at all!" "Uhh...I guess so" said Brinn. She was a little creeped out, but reached up to grab a skillet. As she tried to pull one out, all the skillets and pans in the cupboard came crashing down on her. "Hey, can you give me a hand. Oh this is terribly embarassing." "No." said a cold, hungry voice. Brinn looked up to see the person who was originally standing there was now a large grizzly bear. She picked up one of the skillets and stumbled to her feet. "I know how to defend myself!" The bear seemed to be enjoying itself greatly. Brinn kept backing away, and the bear kept slowly moving forward. Brinn was backed up against the stove. She had accidentally knocked into the burner switch and turned it up higher. Soon her clothes caught fire. Brinn started sniffing, trying to find where the smell was coming from. The bear motioned for Brinn to look behind her, and Brinn's entire backside was in flames. As Brinn dropped to the floor and began rolling on the floor, trying to put out the flames, the bear grabbed a piece of fish and walked away. ~~ In the morning the heroes awoke and saw that 2 more people were missing yet again. They decided to go first to the closest room, which belonged to Candor Man. They walked up to the room and stepped inside carefully. At first it seemed like nothing was out of place, but upon closer inspection they found 3 things; a blue stationary kit, a piece of cloth and a puddle of blood. “That red cloth is the same colour as the shirt Candor Man was wearing yesterday!” Lommy pointed out while she tried to avoid looking at the pool of blood. “The stationary is pretty useless.” Morm said, tossing it aside. “He probably wasn’t killed for his letter writing skills.” “So..........where is he then?” Mira asked, looking slightly confused. “He must have been obliterated, or evaporated, or something that sounds like one of those words.” Form said as he turned to leave the room, the blood making him queasy. “.hcuO” said Nerwen as the rest of the group followed Form to continue to the other victim’s room. No one could find where Brinn had been. For she was not in her room. "I say we just go down to the kitchen and start on breakfast." said Rikae. They all agreed, apparently deciding that Brinn had wondered off somewhere and probably hurt herself. However, when all the heroes got down stairs, they found a pile of charred ashes on the ground with another note. Nessa read it out loud. As you can see, Butterfingers had a bit of an accident, she sort of lit herself on the stove. My apologies, I was just after the fish. She did this to herself.

Am I being touchy or does Rikae seem a bit too eager to suspect me? Well, at least to bring up things that are 'suspicious' about me. I explained my vote before I changed it, so what's the problem?
(Also, sorry if I'm a bit short tonight. Got a brief headache reprieve but I'm still not feeling the best, so if I'm a bit snappy please accept apologies in advance.)

Oh of course. Saying that I am suspicious for trying to break a tie (albeit in the wrong way, and I still hate myself for it) when I said I was going to do it ages before is horribly suspicious. I completely understand. .... .... Man, I really am cranky. Whoops? ETA: x'd. Oh, and I am speaking of that particular point of Rikae's argument. Suspect me if you like, just please do it for a good reason. That's all I ask.

K, so I know some of these posts are rubbish and I'm sorry, but I'm quoting them anyway in the hopes that maybe I/someone else can figure out why she was killed. It's possible the bear thought she was leaving a hint or something, so it's best to have everything in one place.

I know I had something more to say but I lost it. It boils down to this. Brinn didn't say much, and her (granted mostly random) votes were both for Morm. I think Morm's not that transparent, but it could either be a setup from the bear or Morm could assume that we'd think that highly of him and use it against us. Or, sadly, it could still just be random. (Blah, all of that to say I don't know? I feel cheated.)

I am only to this post on the reading but this post did not dissuade me of my Sally suspicion. It is big and long but not a lot of substance. I am going to make an effort to shift my focus, I've been known (many times) to get so wrapped up in one person that I get tunnel vision. I would like to refresh my view and look at a couple others.

And of course you may not be the bear; you may be an ordo or a gifted. Or you may be a wolf, which would make a lot of sense to me as well.
