StarWars: Return of the Sith [Concluded]

[Renata]

We will know tomorrow, Psychonaut. At least we will if anyone listens to me.

[Niklas]

We will know tomorrow, Psychonaut. At least we will if anyone listens to me.

At least we will if anyone listens to me.

At least we will if anyone listens to me.

This is why non-one should listen to you:

No more votes??

Alrighty then .. voting ended.

Round 10

Night

The crew was eagerly awaiting the arrival of Grand Master Qui Gon Jinn. They had swiftly put a candidate to the tally and nearly all had voted in unison. Qui Gon had a quick look at the tally and smiled. “You have done well. I believe you have chosen correctly. Would the Padawan called Den Siva please come forward.” A lanky Nagai stood up and walked down the aisle between rows of seated Jedi. Qui Gon continued: “I made a visit with you last night, which you might not remember.” Den Siva looked inquisitively at Qui Gon and stopped. “You might not remember me removing the one thing that could have saved you today. Your ability to control your body and survive in extreme conditions Den Siva or should I say; Darth Nihl !!!” Den Siva hissed and sprang forward, igniting his lightsaber which he shouldn’t have had as a Padawan. The crowd gasped when they saw the colour of it. Crimson plasma swooshed trough the air trying to find Qui Gon’s flesh. But the green lightsaber of Qui Gon was there and blocked all Den Siva’s attempts at striking him down. Qui-Gon finally flicked the sabre out of Den Siva’s hands and it was obvious that he hadn’t practised much with it. Seeing his lightsabre rolling on the floor, Den Siva stretched his hands forth and blue energy came cackling from them. One of the Jedi Knights reacted and deflected the lightning with the force, while another Jedi Knight used the force to lift Den Siva into the air and slam him against the wall. Several other lightsabers in the hues of green, yellow and blue sprang to life as Jedi Knights and Masters encircled the broken Den Siva.
Den Siva looked defiantly at them with eyes glowing like amber: “My Master will not make Palpatine's mistake. All Jedi must die!!!!”

They took hold of Den Siva and dragged him out into the hangar where they promptly disposed of him out through the space barrier. The eyes of Den Siva glowed pure hatred as he floated outside the hangar bay. They soon lost the amber color and returned to normal as the body died in the freezing space vacuum. The dead body was retrieved and put together with the others in the morgue.

As they gathered together in the auditorium again, a bright light was appearing at the centre of it. Darth Nihl stood there gloating: “You thought you would get rid of me this easy. Be not mistaken, The Sith will prevail.” And by that he disappeared into thin air.

It is night time ... orders in by 22:00 GMT+1 (23 hours from now). The night ends at 23:00 GMT+1 Friday 30th of April (24 hours from now).

what purpose could this serve for Niklas? I am concerned.


I thought i voted...apparently not

[Askthepizzaguy]

Excellent.

Well it seems that we may have been mistaken about Yaseikhaan... utterly baffling why Palpatine would be anything but a Sith. But it seems clear that we will be informed when we destroy a Sith.

[johnhughthom]

My reading of the write up makes me believe Palpatine was a Sith. Perhaps the write up for Palpatine's death was intended to confuse us?

[Askthepizzaguy]

Yes, on re-read I think maybe you're correct. It's possible Yaseikhaan had an ability to mask his true allegiance even in death. It's not that unusual for Khaan to not even bother after he's dead, I don't think. Plus we were pretty convinced he could only be a Sith, so any attempts at deception wouldn't be very effective anyway.

It's pretty moot unless he came back to life somehow.

[Renata]

It read the opposite to me -- Palpatine made a mistake, wanting Jedi to live, hence wasn't Sith. But I suppose it could go either way.

YLC is in the game, I see, replacing AVSM. Hiya YLC. :)

[Diamondeye]

I'm glad we caught a sith - and worried that it was, by the looks of it, the apprentice and not the master.

We should keep our eyes peeled for the next writeup in case of a conversion, obviously. Whoever roleblocked Obi-Wan last night had better strike true tonight so we can wrap this thing up.

[Renata]

I missed that atheotes was now a force ghost, and I really should have known that Niklas would be.

[Sigurd]

Announcement:
YLC will be playing as AVSM's character from this post and onwards.

[Husar]

Well done, now the question is who is that master?
And does Niklas being an official force ghost (I'll consider myself the really cool unoffical underground force ghost now) mean he can still vote like Chaotix?
Or can he do something else? This is sooo exciting!

[Beskar]

The ghost can possess another player? Would be interesting, if so. Rather like the EU story involving the Jedi Academy on Yavin 4.

[Diana Abnoba]

Yeah!!!!! Now to find the Sith Lord!

[White_eyes:D]

Well, now the *Rule of Two* is going to come into play....ATPG, do you think you well be recruited?(be honest)

“You thought you would get rid of me this easy. Be not mistaken, The Sith will prevail.”

I am hoping that my theory about this is wrong....or we might be in more trouble then I care to be in.....

[Kagemusha]

Great to see Sith catched. I would suggest people to look for the past two rounds for abnormal behaviour of the other players to find the other one.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Niklas has been under fire before. I think a look at that round could probably come in handy.

[naut]

It's not that unusual for Khaan to not even bother after he's dead, I don't think.

I disagree, often he sticks around and makes disruptive posts, especially when he has a Mafia/anti-town role. So I'm inclined to think that his role-name is simply a red herring. It could be possible that Sigurd added quite a few roles which are potential dark Jedi or roles that in the fluff end up as Sith to discourage sharing of role names and the setting up of networks.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Well, now the *Rule of Two* is going to come into play....ATPG, do you think you well be recruited?(be honest)

I don't know what will happen, so as my potentially last act as an honest Jedi, allow me to say this: Look for the person who is recruiting. Playing whack-a-mole with the recruits is dumb. Since I am already known not to be the recruiter, deal with me afterward. My best guess is that the recruited Sith will be weaker or themselves unable to recruit. Seek out the Sith Lord, then deal with the apprentices.

@Sith-

I won't bother playing the WIFOM game, so I'll just state it plainly: I'm not going to be lynched anytime soon, and I'd really rather not die on the same side as the Sith in failure. So for the love of peaches, kill me now. Otherwise you'll have to deal with my vote, and you know as well as I do that I'm not going to be voting for a lot of the innocent parties. It's a good move for the Sith, beats the alternative, and it grants my wish of not having to get dragged down with you. Come and fight me you sniveling cowards. I'm a Jedi Knight, I'm just going to learn defensive abilities, so get it while you can.

[Niklas]

Come and fight me you sniveling cowards.

Ibn-Khaldun was brave when issuing his challenge, I'll give him that. Secura just had a death wish. Psychonaut was just silly, but I think you take the prize.

[Andres]

Oh, you get to play the confirmed mafioso role. I'm so jealous. Obfuscating and playing mind games with the townies is sooo much fun. You're so lucky.

[Niklas]

Yeah, I know! I can't stop smiling...

[Renata]

As long as people keep in mind his lynch immunity, which IIRC dated from about night three (look for Den Siva's promotion in the write-ups).

[Askthepizzaguy]

I'm hesitant to look back on Niklas' posts and people's reaction to him just yet. In my experience those were designed to be deceptive, and what happens is you get an idea in your head, and then you go off on that idea and because you have that idea, you discount all the other ideas.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste with something as distracting as an idea.

That's fine, be as hesitant as you want. I'll do it for you.

[Subotan]

So basically ATPG, you're saying we shoould all follow your opinion.

[Kagemusha]

Well is there anything else worth mentioning that brains create, other then ideas? Now im sorry to say, but if we cant find a Sith next round with our ideas.Then it is you we have to settle with and lynch.

See how insidious an idea can get, once it creeps inside your head?

The more you focus on me, the less objectively you see the others. But fine, do as you please. If you find something TinCow, go for it. I'll keep my head free of Niklas' WIFOM, and you'll examine it. Maybe one of us will come up with a decent lead.
