I welcome you, my dear guests, to this lonely mansion of Rokkenjima. Please accept my hospitality in allowing you to take shelter from the dreadful typhoon outside. There is no need for boredom, I will keep you all entertained, if you're willing to play along that is. But first, please put yourself at ease. There is nothing too difficult to think about. Accept entirely, silently, the events to happen. That is all that is asked of you. Being well rested, have you managed to think carefully about your next move? I expect great things of you, from the opening on; in this wager, put in all your spirit. I look forward to your next move. Please, enjoy my game to your heart's content. You will catch on to it's premise in little time from the time you read this. May we meet again after the seagulls cry.
~The Golden Witch Beatrice
Little do these guests know that they were thrown into a death game. Within their own, there are few in them that wish to kill off everyone, one by one.

What to Expect...
'cus I might change things later or feel like I need to explain this now...
[list]
The killers, or traitors, are the ones that will be working together to eliminate everyone else in the group. They will collaborate in secret and PM me (& co-GM) on who they will kill and how they will be killed. They can only kill once each round, and must NOT reveal their role to anyone else at all. Traitors can also be unreliable narrators, so don't make a goof when writing out your character's thoughts. There will be three total traitors
[*]The detectives are the ones that will be working to find clues throughout the game to catch the traitors. They will give in their Truths via PM to me (& co-GM) for that to be anonymously displayed to the other characters. They cannot reveal their role to anyone else at all. There will be two total of detectives.
(note: The Truths are the Red Truth and Blue Truth in Umineko. The Red Truth is the absolute truth, and when said, there are no lies in the said words in red. The Blue Truth is the possible theory based on evidence, knowledge, and the said Red Truths, but if false, it is nullified. If true or possible, the Blue Truth is said to be possible.)[/*]
Everyone else are survivors, or "guests," and no one knows who is a traitor, detective, or survivor(except for the actual traitors & detectives), and every round after someone is killed by the traitors, there will be a vote to execute a possible traitor. You MUST vote each round, or you automatically get your vote placed onto yourself. If you have a reason to be gone, notify me (& co-GM) in the OOC or PM me (& co-GM) about it.
If your character is killed for whatever reason, they are sent into the afterlife portion of the game, which takes place in the Corpse Party universe. There will be clues there as to who is traitor or not (if you are innocent) or if there is a way out. Though ,the way out and to be revived back into the game is a rare chance...
[/list]
For those that don't know how the rounds would work:
[list=1]
Round BEGINS
Interaction Among Characters
Traitors Commit A Murder
Interaction/Investigate Scene
Voting Session
Round ENDS w/ Execution of Character will most votes
Rinse and Repeat until all Traitors are executed or all Survivors are dead.
[/list]

This is a new idea I'm going to try out, and I hope this gets interest because I actually did put a lot of effort into thinking this all through. Especially with the Umineko and Corpse Party elements.
