week 1 - trial; day 1

[vicedirector]

seven vices case 1 trial, day 1 ♫ saturday At 9AM, every television will go off, loud enough to wake anyone sleeping. The calm, apathetic voice will advise everyone to gather in the chapel for the trial. Static will continue to blare in the head of anyone dillydallying. Once all of the guests have gathered in the chapel, the doors will lock. Most of the pews have been moved aside to allow for more space, and a few tables have been set up on the altar. On the first, there is an additional copy of the rulebook, and the information cards of the victim and suspects laid out, with space for the suspects to provide their whereabouts, as well as an autopsy report. There is also a large wheeled chalkboard upon which you may write theories. On the second table is a pitcher of water and some glasses, as well as very simple sandwiches and pastries. The door behind the altar has finally been unlocked. It's a rather plain room with an area set off by a folding screen. Inside, you will find a table on which the victim's body has been laid out. Next to the table, two black and white photographs have been hung on the screen. they are close ups of the victim's body, as it was found when the body discovery announcement chimed. A few sticks of incense burn in the corner to avoid any smells. At 6PM, the trial will adjourn. Everyone will be escorted back to the hotel by Miata, after which everyone is allowed to head to either the kitchen to get dinner, or to their rooms. Attempting to wander off into the other areas of the hotel will trigger the static alarms in everyone's heads/televisions. >Discuss? victim suspects         cast setting rulebook

Findings

[vicedirector]

The rest of the table is empty. There are boxes labeled Exhibit A through Exhibit J, and pens and paper for writing.

All evidence and other information found during the course of investigation should be listed here.

Exhibit A - Morphine Bottle

[symbologic]

[It's a morphine bottle! Two-thirds of its contents are missing. Alongside it is a short note in tidy handwriting:]

A bottle of morphine, found inside one of the cabinets in the laundry room. I have neither added to nor taken away from its contents since its discovery. -Faize

Exhibit B - Additional Body Information

[herbgrace]

Blood from head wound was frozen when I found it. Given the state of decomposition, he was probably dead for more than six hours as of nine AM. Head wound broke the skull, exposing the brain beneath the hair.

Hair was slightly scorched, as if from fire. Scorch marks are on the back of his head, not on the side where his head injury is.

Ribs, arms, legs broken. On his back there are several small bruises from between his shoulder blades to mid-torso, each one with a small pinprick in the middle, as if from a needle or syringe.

- Lithuania

Exhibit C - Candy Drugs

[lastgirl]

[aka Cough Drops, which will be obvious to anyone who knows what a cough drop is.]

Found inside of Takao's pockets when the body was discovered. - Buddy

EXHIBIT C - FOOTPRINTS

[dereban]

[ Written here is a description about the footprints that were found near the scene of the crime.

Of course is somebody needs this shit to be read, Inaba's here to read them. ]

Rather large footprints that don't seem to lead to an exact place were found in the general vicinity of Takao's body. Some of them seem to be half made, too.

-Inaba

Re: EXHIBIT C - FOOTPRINTS

[smileleftbehind]

Do any of the suspects feet match the foot prints? [Cheshire would write, but Inaba might recall the cat is illiterate.]

Exhibit E - Benadryl

[fourleafcleaver]

[A bottle of liquid Benadryl. The seal is broken and it's about half empty.]

Found it like this in the kitchen fridge.

[She's signed it with a tiny doodle of a four leaf clover instead of her name... Clover please this is serious someone has DIED????]

Exhibit F - Missing Medical Supplies

[hopefragment]

Sisuca and I noticed the following supplies missing from the clinic:

weird shaped scissors (medical scissors?)

1 pair latex gloves

1 bottle benadryl

1 bottle morphine

1 pack of cough drops

1 syringe

ROOM INVESTIGATION - Takao

[minogame]

( Link. )

Takao's keys were found in his pocket. His room was locked.

Everything seemed pretty normal. He had some clothes piled on top of the second bed in the room. I think they were just dirty clothes. On the table by the bed, he had some origami and a few letters.

( He'll leave said letters underneath his report. )

His closet was pretty normal too. Nothing under his bed. The bathroom was normal too.

I don't think anything was really missing?

( Scrawled at the bottom of his report he'll write quickly, )

Buddy and Faize helped me search his room. If I missed anything they can add more.
Sorry, I don't normally write reports! ( ´△｀);;

[clearasmud]

Don't worry about it, you did a good job.

[ -youko says like she has some kind of authority on the subject and isn't just as green as urashima at this. she's trying to be reassuring! ]

Exhibit G - BONFIRE

[americanbeauty]

[A whole collection of items: warped medical shears, burnt fabric, and charred plastic. The items are provided by Astrid but Lucy writes up a neat little note.]

These items were found in the ashes of the bonfire pit in the morning. No one was near-by, Astrid was the first person to find it.

1. A piece of woolen fabric, burnt, and appears to have been torn off something.
2. Scissors, slightly warped.
3. Unknown burnt item.

[One's a viking and the other is from 1890 what the heck is plastic?]

[dhaosu]

[ Taking a look at these... what even. ]

[muties]

... Number 3 looks like plastic.

[ /helpful clarification ]

#1 Addition

[lastgirl]

The burnt fabric was not part of Takao's clothes. It's polyester and you can make out a blue color from it. - Buddy

Roof check

[brawlhalla]

There was clear evidence that someone was up on the roof at some point - right above where the body was found. He was probably shoved.

-Astrid

Takao's Clothing

[herbgrace]

On Takao's back, his shirt and vest were also pierced through several times with a needle or syringe.
