WEEK 3; TRIAL

[killerwaves]

TRIAL

Like last week, the kitty bots herd everyone over to the sandbar once the time for investigation has concluded. At the least, this little piece of your personal hells has emerged unscathed in all the wreckage. Unlike last week, Overhaul and Shigaraki are already there waiting for you, the former looking about as grouchy as a mask can get and the latter looking pretty amused.

Off to the side in a booth of its own is the body as well as attendant kittybots; apparently it’s messy enough this time to require some clearance, but it’s still close enough for the admins to oversee.

This murder sure was something, even for your masterminds. Theorize and/or judge about who could have done such a thing and get a snack from your local kitty bots if you get hungry—the theme is italian today, with pizza, mozzarella sticks, stuffed meatballs and the like.

(( OOC: Welcome to your second trial! You'll have 7 hours (8PM EST/5PM PST) to find the killer and send them off their death, if you believe in justice at least. Since this is scapegoat style, finding the correct killer is not mandatory!

Please remember to vote before then unless you've spoken to a mod, as votes are our stand-in for AC. ))

MORE BEACH + Note

[microtransactions]

Wang Lu says I apparently have more to say about the sand and blood, but honestly, there's not all that much to say! Lots of big holes and pits in the sand, anywhere between 10 and 30 feet wide, and 3 to 5 feet deep! Whatever happened seems to have gone all the way around the shoreline from the main beach on Sungem in front of the resort, up and round without cutting through the island. It honestly looks kind of like a hurricane blew through, but the treeline seems okay, and I didn't catch wind of any messed up plants or animals other than the goose that Ibuki apparently found? As far as the blood goes, I can't tell you much more than Wang Lu did - they don't make much of a trail and are just kind of haphazardly spilled around.

The holes are scattered around kind of randomly, and I will say that I didn't find any blood or ... uh. Other bits inside them! But given how big they are that's a lot of displaced sand that I couldn't seem to find all of? There were some small sand piles outside them, sure, but. The edges of the holes are jarringly abrupt and not a gentle slope, which makes me figure it was probably some sort of power, but I have no idea what might have made them - it's not like they're wet or shaped like anything in particular, and I didn't see anything like melted glass or sand to suggest anyone used fire.

One thing I want to say about the blood is ... I do want to remind everyone that apparently according to his profile Vergilius could control blood? So not all of it might be from injury. I mean, it could be, and probably at least some of it is! I dunno how his power works! But I do want to put that out there, just in case?

Hm... Perhaps he was made to bleed himself out?

[dakicover]

Possibly. Blood loss can cause exhaustion, which would make him an easier target. Once he was weakened enough, then it'd be easy for his opponent to land a killing blow.
