[Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [Concluded]

[Diamondeye]

I have snow too.

6in deep. In North Carolina.

Freaking crazy.

Some places in Denmark has been under 5 ft. of snow....! Luckily, the capital wasn't too awfully hit. Still, a couple of feet in total, I guess... 6 in. ain't nothing

This weather discussion is off-topic and getting sort of prolonged.

Yes, the last thing I wanted after shoveling snow all day (we got 8 inches and it was about 25 degrees outside and cloudy) was to read about the weather here.

[Double A]

Gar. My back is still hurting from the 4 ft of snow and ice I had to shovel. Durned snow plows.

Get a flamethrower.

I meant for North Carolina. We never get snow this deep in December.

EVER.

Night 0

The Galactic Federation Starship Olympus coasted through space at a leisurely pace. It was headed for a planet controlled by the Space Pirates, who had recently resurged, probably due to the Council of Villains event and the empowering of their leader, Ridley, that came with it. The spacecraft was not moving quickly, however, because the forces on board were still being trained.

The Inter-dimensional Federation of Heroes, or IDFH, had established something of an uneasy alliance with the GF Marines. With a common foe in Ridley, both sides saw the wisdom in an alliance, but so far it had not worked out especially well. The heroes viewed the GF forces as grunts and common troopers, and mostly useless in a fight- and the marines were offended that the heroes would dare to insult them on their own ship. In fact, all the IDFH forces in Dimension 003 Metroid were stationed on the GFS Olympus, except for two who had gone missing a few months previously. And then there was the matter of the GF hiring several bounty hunters to fight for them, many of them former criminals.

It was not the best of situations. And it would soon devolve into something far worse.

A dot appeared on the Olympus’s radar screen. It was a friendly dot, requesting permission to dock. The ship was scanned and immediately recognized as the renowned bounty hunter Samus’s Gunship. The Fleet Admiral Castor Dane was notified and it was granted permission to dock, as was usually the case.

Minutes later, there was chaos. A siren began blaring, red lights came up. A messenger ran immediately to Admiral Dane’s room, shouting:

“Sir! The docking bay is under assault! The entire sector has been wiped out!”

Dane looked concerned and shocked, but not fearful.

“By whom? How is it possible we didn’t detect them coming?”

“I’m not sure, our cameras have been hacked and disabled by some sort of unknown technology. But we’ve received no word from Samus Aran since then, either. She could be harmed or even killed!”

“Perhaps… but there may be a more obvious explanation than that. Send a squad down to find any hostiles and search for survivors.”

“Yes, sir!”

The messenger hurried off, and Admiral Dane scratched his chin.

“So it begins…”

Not twenty minutes had passed before the messenger returned. Dane expected news of the docking bay attack, but this was not it.

“Sir! The medical wing has been breached!”

This time, Dane had more of a face that implied he was about to say “are you kidding me?” It only flashed for a moment, but he kept his cool.

“Details! What’s going on?”

“There are several survivors who managed to escape. They said that there wasn’t even a spacecraft. Just three shadowy figures, and they were all using… using…”

“Using what? Spit it out, man!”

“Phazon! They attacked us with Phazon!”

“That could only mean…”

“They think it’s the Dark Hunter!”

Dane looked worried now. He was about to dismiss the messenger, but was interrupted by Aurora Unit 242, the organic supercomputer that ran the ship.

“Admiral Dane, I believe you should be seeing this.”

A holo-screen stretched across the wall. On it, what appeared to be a large, metallic dragon was rocketing towards them through space. All of a sudden, a massive crash rocked the entire ship, and the lights dimmed for a moment.

“What’s going on, 242?”

"The cargo bay has been penetrated and the engines have been destroyed. The Olympus has been rendered incapable of moving."

“We’re stranded… out in Pirate Space.”

Role PMs are being sent. Please stand by and wait for the next part of the write-up.

Dane had called for everyone still living on board the ship to meet in the main assembly room.

The numbers of the GF forces and the IDFH forces were about equal, and neither group seemed happy about the other’s presence. Captain Falcon, in charge of the IDFH forces on board the Olympus, was at the center. Dane was not present.

“Now listen up! As you have probably guessed, there are some among us who are not as they seem! They are intruders on this vessel, and they are almost certainly villains. They’re here to kill us all, and we need to find them before they do that.”

A voice shouted from the group of GF marines:

“They’re only here to kill you! Why should we have to be subject to this treatment? If you weren’t on our ship, this never would have happened!”

“I do not believe that the intruders are only here for the IDFH. Word has it that Dark Samus is on board. She has never been on good terms with the Galactic Federation. Further, we have word that Samus, who is both a GF bounty hunter and an IDFH hero, is on board and has gone missing. The GF most certainly has a reason to be involved here.”

For the most part, both groups were quieted. Falcon continued.

“We need to vote on who we believe is most likely to be an intruder. Then the only method to know for sure if they are… is death. I will tally the votes.”

The marines were in an uproar.

“What’s to say you won’t skew the tally in the IDFH ‘s favor, huh? Out to protect your own, I’m sure!”

The IDFH were now starting to take offense. It seemed a fight would begin if Falcon didn’t do something.

“Fine! Admiral Dane will tally the votes today. I will take care of it tomorrow. We will switch off every day. That way, it will be fair. Is that acceptable?”

Both sides seemed to come to an uneasy agreement, for now.

“Good. Then it’s time to vote. Show me your moves!”

And so began the first day of A State of Corruption.

----------------------------

The role PMs for all mafia and other essential characters have been sent out. I am still working on the rest and will have those out as soon as possible.

That said, everyone who doesn't have a role PM yet is a basic townie.

I am starting the first round. Anybody can vote, even if you don't have your role PM yet. I will only start counting the 24 hours when I have sent out the last role PM, though.

Vote: Seon - you do not belong amongst this crew.
