				It had been several weeks since the group had left society in search of a safe place to set up and call their new home. Nearly a month ago something terrible had started wiping people out in a quick fashion and a small group of twelve friends and acquaintances had banded together to find a place that would be safe from the terror sweeping the civilized world. Some said it was a virus, others were sure it was a curse and the gods were taking their revenge on people for all the destruction and horror they brought to the world. In either case, the group had decided it was not safe to stay in society and had trekked off into the woods, finding their way deeper and deeper as they hoped that they would soon come across a place that would be safe to call home with sources for food and water not too far off.<br><br>They'd come across one small shack thus far, but with twelve of them it didn't seem a feasible place to set up and they'd found a problem with every spot they'd camped thus far. But it seemed they were in luck as out of what appeared to be nowhere they came across and fence and followed it. Eventually, they found a gate and beyond the gate lay what appeared to be a small abandoned town. A warning above the gate painted on a small sign in what some could argue might even be blood,<br><span style="font-size: 18pt;" class="bbc_size"><span style="font-family: french script mt;" class="bbc_font">Keep walking, nomads. Beware the curse of Miller's Hollow.</span></span><br><br>But alas, this was the <em>perfect</em> place for them to find shelter from what had been wreaking havoc on the civilized world and it would have to do until whatever was happening began to blow over. Upon entering the town it seemed it had not been lived in for a long time and they were going to need to clean out the buildings a little if they wanted to use them, but there was a stream off to the edge of town and surely they would find plenty of forage and hunt in the forests nearby. <br><br>However, before they could begin settling in, the villagers had some concerns about keeping the peace and decided that they would elect someone to be their leader, a sort of Sheriff if you will.<br><br><strong>Players</strong><br>Beguile’s Mistress<br>James Moriarty<br><del>Kendra</del><br><del>Mr Bigglesworth</del><br><del>Niferbelle</del><br><span class="bbc_u">Remiel</span><br><del>Sarena</del><br>Starlequin<br><del>ThatRPGuy</del><br><del>Torch</del><br>Trieste<br>Valerian<br><br><strong>Roles</strong><br>Peasants x6<br>Priest<br>Guardian<br>Seer<br>Werewolves x3

				Glancing around at the small band of refugees, Torch heard her name spoken more than once, but she hesitated at accepting the responsibility of Sheriff. She knew from past experience that responsibility often made one a target from the very people one was sworn to protect. Still, it was clear someone needed to take charge before they hoped to survive the night. <br><br>The question was....who?<br><br>Squaring her shoulders, Torch nodded towards a tall figure.

				So the village has decided that <strong>Torch</strong> will be their <del>cheif ravisher... or ravager... or whatever you want to call it.</del> Sheriff. With that decision made, they could finally start exchanging glances regarding who was going to be ravishing or ravaging whom and who might just be shacking up together tonight. Before they could officially settle down they would need to clean out the cabins they planned to use and some of the group might want to rustle up a little food and water, but before long the sun was falling down below the tree line and night was approaching... time for the <em>ravaging</em> to begin.<br><br><strong>Night Roles will receive their messages shortly/please PM me to use your abilities.</strong>

				It was a mixed bag of citizens BeMi observed as she swept out the cottage she had selected for herself.&nbsp; It was small, basically a single room with a fireplace for cooking and a bed off in the corner.&nbsp; The mattress was not to badly worn and she had brought her own sheets and blankets along with other household needs.&nbsp; A kettle of water began whistling on the hob as she dispatched the last of the detritus that had invaded her new sanctum and went to set a nice pot of tea to steeping.&nbsp; She would welcome the company of guests for a while.&nbsp; The lowering sun was somehow ominous.<br><br>Scrubbing the table and setting out mugs and a plate of biscuits gave her something to do and kept her from rubbing her forearms exposed by her rolled up sleeves.&nbsp; BeMi felt a prickling along her skin where the fine hairs on her arms and the back of her neck stood on end.&nbsp; She would have to get to some baking on the morrow but the sweets would suffice for this day.<br><br>"I wonder how wise it was to make the move here," she mused as she went back to the open door and watched the hustle and bustle of others getting settled nodding back to those who nodded or waved a greeting.

				As the sun rises in the morning, the villagers are awakened to the sounds of a woman screaming. Screaming insanities - that is. It is, they eventually discover, <strong>Kendra</strong> who seems to have lost her mind completely to the jungle fever. Maybe someone...or several someones ravaged (or is it ravished?) her a little too hard, but it doesn't look like she's going to be getting out of bed anytime soon.<br><br>She continues to mumble and scream occasionally about a 'curse' and 'wolf' but the villagers aren't entirely sure what this means. They do take the time to listen and try to figure out what she's rambling about, but Kendra is not long for this world after whatever happened to her last night. They make her comfortable before turning to each other and making an attempt to figure this all out.<br><br>Was the warning above the gate true, or was Kendra just going completely insane? From the sweat on her face it's obvious that she's suffering from some sort of fever induced hallucinations, the question is whether it's the jungle fever or if there is something happening here... causing some sort of deathly ravagings to occur at night. Wasn't there a full moon last night? Kendra had said something about wolves. Some of the group are pretty sure they've heard of a place called Miller's Hollow found deep in the woods by any travelling group who needs it, that slowly turns its inhabitants into other-worldly beings... was it werewolves? Could it be that the legend is true?<br><br>No matter the case, it seems that someone has caused Kendra to lose her sanity and probably very soon her life. With a potential murderer in their midst, the group decides that they will vote on who they believe to be guilty and force them to leave the settlement in the hopes of preventing anyone else from suffering the same fate.<br><br><hr><br><strong>Players</strong><br>Beguile’s Mistress<br>James Moriarty<br>Mr Bigglesworth<br>Niferbelle<br>Remiel<br>Sarena<br>Starlequin<br>ThatRPGuy<br>Torch<br>Trieste<br>Valerian

				Remiel's expression turned pale with horror when Kendra was found in a delirium the following morning, muttering incoherently about wolves and curses.&nbsp; An icy chill inexplicably took hold of him, causing him to shiver violently.&nbsp; &nbsp;It seemed that Miller's Hollow was, once again, haunted by the shadow of its accursed reputation.&nbsp; <br><br>"I'll stay with Kendra and look after her," he said, solemnly.&nbsp; He was well aware that doing so, that by simply speaking up, he had cast himself underneath the light of suspicion.&nbsp; It would have been far smarter to remain mute and keep a low profile.&nbsp; No doubt there were some already who believed him to be a werewolf, even though he knew that he had had no hand in the dire events of the night before.&nbsp; But Kendra was his dear friend, and he would comfort her until the end.<br><br>He drew the blankets up around her, and placed a wet cloth upon her forehead, to help succor against the fever.&nbsp; As much as he would like to pursue the extent of Niferbelle's "appreciation", he couldn't let Kendra languish in this state. <br><br>

				Starlequin waited outside, leaned against the wall, as the others hemmed and hawed over the unfortunate Kendra. Through an open window he caught the first votes and hobbled in, every other footstep punctuated by the heavy thump of his walking stick. Sarena's comment about locked doors had him nodding.<br><br>"Lock them tight, to be sure...but should we be alone? Safety in numbers, after all," he said as he looked over the poor bedridden woman. "If we stay in groups of three or four, keep a steady nightwatch, we ought to be able to mount a solid defense against...whatever evil this place holds. Although to be honest, I'm not sure whose group I'd care to be in; Mr. Bigglesworth and <strong>Niferbelle</strong> both seem sort of sketchy, in my opinion..."

				After a frighteningly long stretch of silence, the nervous rush of whispered conversation and hesitantly spoken accusations began.&nbsp; If Val had had any real hopes of gleaning some clues from the way the votes fell, she soon realized how vain those hopes were, for no two people seemed able to agree on who the culprit might be.<br><br>So she hesitated, pondered, changed her mind at least five times, and then at last ventured a name.&nbsp; "Perhaps <strong>Mr Bigglesworth</strong> knows something."

				Niferbelle scarcely noticed the accusation that was thrown her way. She wasn't taking it personally, they were all doing what she was about to do -- guessing. She moved to stand near Remiel who was taking Kendra's loss hard and rested a hand lightly on his shoulder as she took in the group and shrugged.

				Peering about the small group, now one fewer, Torch had her suspicions about the guilty party but without evidence...suspicions were all that they would remain. Still, the accusations began to fly and the finger pointing went from one unfortunate to the other. <br><br>Her gaze fell on one of their midst who seemed rather uneasy and fidgety, although truth be told they were all quite out of sorts.

				It looked as though Remiel would be disappointed in his wish for a ten-way tie, since Val had no desire to let herself be the victim when Torch broke said tie.&nbsp; "Quite sure, yes, since I didn't stir from my house," she replied, firmly.<br><br>Unfortunately, she was now in an unenviable position.&nbsp; Her tentative allies did not speak, though she could hardly blame them.&nbsp; Torch's vote had doomed her, unless Val acted to save herself, and she looked at their Sheriff unhappily.&nbsp; "But I'm sorry, <strong>Torch</strong>.&nbsp; The last thing I wanted was for my vote to hurt anyone, but at least I know I'm innocent.&nbsp; All I can do is try and save myself, and pray that I haven't risked sacrificing another innocent to do that."

One he trusted was on the ropes, another he <em>wanted</em> to trust about join them. He felt rotten for even thinking of his next move, especially after the kindness of a friend had already kept him off the pile, but there was little for it. The man bowed his head and scratched another vote in the dust with his stick, hoping desperately that his judgement would prove wiser than <strong>Torch</strong>'s.

I promise when I've settled in to my new place I'll run a new version without the twist and make it up to you guys. <br><br>For the sake of not getting everyone ramped up again, I'm going to give the game to <strong>Valerian</strong>.<br><br>The twist was indeed that there were <em>No Werewolves</em>. In fact, the same virus that was sweeping through the cities was brought into the village by three infectious patients; Beguile's Mistress, Niferbelle and Mr. Bigglesworth. None of them were aware of the fact that they had contracted the illness and were spreading it. The intention of the game was to slowly release clues about what the illness was - in this case I had chosen the Plague but hadn't gotten far enough in the clues to make it apparent.<br><br>The way deaths were determined was indeed random (by hat draw) as a few of you guessed. Interacting heavily with an ill person would add your name to the hat additional times. Remiel, for instance, gained a second ticket in the hat when he sat by Niferbelle's bedside while she was dying.<br><br>The special roles were as follows;<br>Starlequin - the Priest<br>Remiel - the Guardian<br>James Moriarty - the Seer<br><br>I'll give you all first right of denial at the next adult game I decide to run.<br><br>If anyone has further questions feel free to ask, I'm sure I've left something out but I thought I'd give this a bit of closure rather than let it sit idle another couple of weeks for a similar end.

				And it was cool to be able to manage the trifecta -- all three special roles in contact and working together.&nbsp; :)<br><br>But I knew there had to be a reason why no one, absolutely no one, looked the slightest bit suspicious, and then I couldn't stop pestering poor Saffron with my theories.&nbsp; &nbsp;::)
