Council Of The Magi - Small Mafia - ON HOLD

[Quintus.JC]

Vote: Flax

[boudica]

Boudica called the gnollish minion to her and obediently he held the blackboard while the Magus Supremo donned a gauntlet replete with a metallic claw. The Magi covered their ears as she inscribed the current tally, murmuring something about a lack of chalk.

Tally

Sigurd: 1 (Captain Blackadder)
The Flax: 1 (Quintus.JC)

[TheFlax]

Vote: Flax

Any reason in particular or is it simply a random machiavellian vote? huh?

For my part I think I shall persist in my Vote: Lord Winter and hopefully this time he will actually say something.

Has anyone analysed the different kills to see if they are done in the same way or if we can gather any clues from them?

Because from Sigurd's order theory, since everyone else probably belonged in an order, then it only leaves you and Lord Winter. And I picked you over him, without any specific reason really.

Ah, but I am in an order. Sadly I have not found a fellow from my order in this council. I feel all alone. This is best discussed in private though.

Also, I would like to ask you, since you have been so forthcoming, why didn't you vote or speak on the fourth day? As I understand it from what you relayed to us, the condition that prevented you to do so lasted only until the end of the third day.

Long answer would be because I was involved in 5 games simutaniously, thus....

Short answer would be because of sheer laziness.

[Quintus.JC]

Lord Winter is lurking massively, I suppose we can still afford to lynch someone who is barely talking at all then lynching someone who is at least trying to defend himself.

Unvote: Flax
Vote: Lord Winter

[Sigurd]

I am afraid I am a little sleep depraved to join in the voting this round. My nerves are raw and I keep seeing things.
*looks nervously over shoulder*
My thoughts are not coherent and old nightmares haunts my daydreams. I am seeing old ghosts, especially the golden dragon Draupnir. His old magic nearly fried me and I am only now realising that I could have died.
*shudders*
I need to lie down... if I dared doing so.

I ... um can through the vibrations still in the air pick up some *looks over shoulder* eh... whispers.
Apparently these are the methods of murder:

'khaan - Cerebelus ...EXPLODUM! - destroys head
Reenk - Cerebelus ...EXPLODUM! - destroys head
Yoyoma - beaten to a pulp. (No magic evident)

*shudders*

It could be ... maybe... the magus Mafioso only had two Cerebelus Explodum scrolls? *buries face in palms*

[Thermal]

The mafioso hasn't killed recently leading me to believe there lurking.

Captain blackadder & AVSM wouldn't kill there own cult members I believe, seeing as I removed Yoyoma just to see if this cult was innocent, evidence suggests it is....


Halo Of Innocence: Captain Blackadder & A very Super Market


Suspects:

Quintus JC
The Flax**
Thermal Mercury
Lord Winter*
Sigurd

*Lurkers
**Only slightly active

Quintus:

Believes he is in my cult, obviously but a mere apprentice! Not a top suspect, parcipating meaning he would likely kill if in attendance, no reason to believe he may be in my cult, that's flapping reliable to me.


The Flax:

Light Lurking with small doses of activity, not much trouble on his back either, 2nd priority suspect for me.

Thermal Mercury:

Horrible angry hated arrogant mage that claims huge power, active, very active & has helped town 'supposedly' in ways not all people are aware of, still far from cleared.

Lord Winter:

Lurking devilishly, suiting the killing pattern, stays out of the lime like, in no confirmed cult that makes me think he is innocent 1st priority suspect for me

Sigurd:

Seems to act like a townie but can easily deceive, he knows a lot of information, enough to destroy town even? Off the hook for now.




Vote: Lord winter

Don't just stand there you weak fools, praise my holy name! Learn your place, I belong in the sky, you can subside in the sewers!

Lord Winter: 3 (TheFlax, Quintus.JC, Thermal Mercury)
Sigurd: 1 (Captain Blackadder)

The fifth day of the Council brought at least some small discussion between the remaining Magi. But a sickness appeared to have fallen on the Council itself and several of it's members said nothing, or simply shivered and sweated as if with a chill.

Finally Boudica called the session to a close for the day and the screetching chalkboard showed quite clearly that the Mage known as Lord Winter was up for exile. When summoned to the Magus Supremo to take his punishment, Lord Winter refused to budge - although 'refusal' would indicate some kind of activity - and from Lord Winter there was none.

The Mage seated next to him gave Lord Winter a shake and lo and behold! - The Mage's robes collapsed into a heap!

Lord Winter was not there.

There was some general commotion - several of the Magi assuming foul play - perhaps one last trick of the Magus Mafioso - but Boudica quickly drew her minions to her and consulted with them.

A study of the minutes revealed that Lord Winter had not spoken since the first day of the Council. None of the Magi could swear even that they had seen him leave his chair. A thorough search of Lord Winter's room was conducted and a note found which was returned to Boudica. The old crone affixed her eyeglasses to the ridge of her sabre-like nose and read thusly:

"Dear all,

I have decided that the life of a Mage is not for me and I am returning to my village in the Southern jungles to follow my true shamanic path. If someone could settle my room service bill, I'd be most grateful.

signed

Habanero Negra"

Boudica stared at the tally and appeared lost in thought for a moment before she spoke once more.

"I shall consult the Rhandome! - If it remain black then I shall use my power for today to exile the Mage known as Sigurd to the VOID! - If it become white, then Sigurd shall be spared!"

The Rhandome was bought out once more from the cupboard under the wide spiral stairs and placed before the wizzened - and clearly insane - old Sorceress. She passed her hand over its reflective surface and sure enough the globe was lit with a pale and milky light.

The Mage known as Sigurd found he had been holding his breath, and he breathed a deep sigh of relief.

Boudica shuffled from the Hall and headed for the gym... or at least the jacuzzi, as the sun set on the Tower of Sorcery.

O.O.C

can I just say this game is so interesting in my eyes, it's such a shame so many players have neglected it, I'll just tell Boudica that I've thoroughly enjoyed this game, it would have been even better if half of the people that signed up actually bothered to play....

[Thermal]

whoops

[Captain Blackadder]

VOTE FLAX

Why would I kill yoyoma he was the same order as me and could vouch for my innocence?

[A Very Super Market]

I am fairly certain it is TheFlax, and most likely not Sigurd. However, I won't be too sure yet, but we might as well lynch.

Vote: TheFlax

[boudica]

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

The Flax, read my investigation!






I killed yoyoma to determine his alignment, I know he is in the same order as captain blackadder and AVSM, and yoyoma was innocent, this automativally clears blackadder and AVSM! If you don't see this It is you I would destroy next, you seem very scummy, have no claims to a cult, and have been hiding in the shadows all game.

The suspect list is very slim Flax, and your still on it

Quintus JC
The Flax
Thermal Mercury
Lord Winter
Sigurd

FoS: Q.J.C, Sigurd & The Flax

The flax especially because of your scummy voting and reasons stated above, then maybe quintus.....

TM should not be posting after he was killed. Why do people never read the rules?
I have requested that TM edit his post. Please continue.

[Thermal]

whoops

[boudica]

DAY SEVEN (apologies for keeping you waiting)

Boudica smiled grimly as the last of the Magi returned to the Council. All that had been left alive at the end of the previous day had returned, and the Magus Supremo felt her confidence returning. Surely today they might end the Mafiosi threat!.

Calling the Council to order, Boudica apologised for the extent of her lie-in and bid the Council begin their voting.
