Alright so what is everybody feeling as far as setting goes?Right now I'm debating between two possible themes:
1. A medieval fantasy theme with feuding noble houses. The murder would likely take place at a royal banquet, or at a wedding. Characters would include knights, princesses, elves, goblins, that sort of thing. 
2. A Hollywood theme with the murder taking place at an awards show of some kind. The characters would all be Hollywood stars (producers, directors, actors, etc.) and would be parodies of different types of celebrities.
