EVENT #17: EPULUM - COORDINATION POST

Event #17 - Coordination
This post is for coordination while the event is ongoing, to prevent the IC Event Log from being overrun by OOC mod and player communications. The comments section will contain applicable comments and forms for you to reply to as needed.

Use this post to:
◎ Contact the mods
◎ Submit your suspected culprit
◎ Investigate the crime or track ongoing investigations
◎ Submit noticeable actions
◎ Write rapid IC exchanges
Available Forms
For details on each form, see the sections below.
Be sure to reply under the applicable category as required.
Mod Communications
If you have any questions about the limits or scope of what you can do before you formalize it in an investigation, you can go over the details with us here. You can also submit the suspect to Celeste under the appropriate heading. Submitting the name of the suspect is not required to complete the mystery, but doing so may contribute to whether the suspect is caught or escapes.

If you have questions about non-investigative aspects of the event, see the Questions thread on the OOC Plotting Post.

Investigations
To leave opportunities for others, please limit the scope of your actions per submission. For example, if you'd like to test a key, you must specify a narrow set of locks in a particular section. Additionally, while there are no strict limits on how many investigations you can be involved in, we do ask that you try to stagger them a little to help us keep pace.

You can investigate something multiple times as long as it makes sense for your character to try again. This includes following up with witnesses if characters learn new information. To investigate, fill out the form, then comment under the item you're investigating.

Investigate a witness, scene, or evidence

IC Exchanges
Use this option if you have an interaction you'd like to play out, but setting up a standard IC thread would be impracticable. For example, if your character wants to speak to several people about a piece of evidence, you might want to do an IC exchange. IC exchanges can take place in the real world or the Horizon.

Treat this like an informal IC network thread done in person, where character reactions, snippets of dialogue, and other details can be quickly played out and concluded in-game without committing to a full log thread. Exchanges are game canon, and can count towards Activity Check under the category of a Network thread.

Start an IC exchange

Using the provided form is optional. Begin a thread freeform if you prefer.

Notable Actions
Submit any notable actions that are likely to gain attention from other players such as fights or disturbances.

blood sample from sauna

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-02-27 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
Aloy and I found blood in the sauna. Collected a sample, but it's not... clean. Anyone think they can extract just the blood for testing or whatever it is we're doing with blood in this whole investigative circus?

Also of note: a bystander near the baths was knocked out and hidden in the lost and found. He was attacked by 'a bear and a wolf' -- his words. Probably someone in those animal masks sneaking around. Unfortunately, he was too addled to say much, and I don't think he had more information what the bear/wolf did.

Related to the blood?

Astarion and I have a small, untainted sample. Only good for one test, should anyone want it.

Also from the sauna? Where did it come from?

I found a hole in the wall. Your doing?
durge: (pic#16886550)

[personal profile] durge 2024-03-01 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
That's right. Can't imagine why it was kept there, but it seemed to be for safe keeping. Pity about the leech.
wiedzminka: (forty-three.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-03-02 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Weird place to keep blood. Or anything, really.

When you were in the sauna, did anything else strange happen?
durge: (pic#16795927)

[personal profile] durge 2024-03-08 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
No. Why, did something happen to you?
wiedzminka: (forty-one.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-03-13 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Something was drawing symbols in the blood on the floor. Something unseen.

Though it seemed to have a sense of humor, for all its lack of other discernible presence.

[personal profile] aquaveiled 2024-02-27 06:46 am (UTC)(link)
Not clean? Like just dirty or it has impurities?
wiedzminka: (eighty-three.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-02-29 07:42 am (UTC)(link)
There are... chunks in it. Not sure of what.
aquaveiled: (himeka-530)

[personal profile] aquaveiled 2024-03-07 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, hm...probably the organ it came from, right? But we can probably separate that.

[ Written all too casually? ]
wiedzminka: (ninety-seven.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-03-07 07:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ Sounds like a totally normal thing to say. ]

How? I don't think a strainer will do the trick.
aquaveiled: (himeka-438)

[personal profile] aquaveiled 2024-03-10 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh I wouldn't use a strainer. Cleaning that for cooking again would be a nightmare. But a few applications of Esuna may do the trick!

[personal profile] gynvael 2024-02-27 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
The attack is unconnected.

[ Ask him how he knows. ]
wiedzminka: (one hundred & seventy-three.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-02-29 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
You sound certain.
gynvael: (436)

[personal profile] gynvael 2024-02-29 09:45 am (UTC)(link)
We had a minor disruption.

Geralt.

Who is 'we'?
gynvael: (071)

[personal profile] gynvael 2024-03-03 12:36 am (UTC)(link)
I was with Dean.

Vampires are hardy.
He'll recover.
wiedzminka: (one hundred & seventy.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-03-03 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Of course you were.

But

why did you attack a drunk vampire if it was

unconnected?
gynvael: (453)

[personal profile] gynvael 2024-03-03 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
It's complicated.

[ Wrong place, wrong time, as they say. Pay your father no mind. ]

What else did you uncover there?
Only the blood?
wiedzminka: (forty-five.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-03-03 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
[ Yeah sure, Pops. ]

It seems the blood was left over from someone else's snooping. Something about a leech. Seems we went through the effort of scraping it off the floor for nothing.

There was something else strange, though.

Something

invisible was watching us. It communicated. Sort of.
gynvael: (427)

[personal profile] gynvael 2024-03-03 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Using symbols?
wiedzminka: (three.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-03-03 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
A little heart drawn in the remaining blood.
gynvael: (mg: 003)

[personal profile] gynvael 2024-03-03 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Seems to be a pattern.
Be careful.
wiedzminka: (twelve.)

[personal profile] wiedzminka 2024-03-07 08:11 am (UTC)(link)
What do you know of it?
gynvael: (mg: 006)

[personal profile] gynvael 2024-03-09 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
Less than I'd like.
It's toying with us.
