ROOK RULEBOOK
the rook On Thursday, at 1pm, Blanca will receive a message on his PHS. It'll be a bit of a trek, but please head to the castle now. I'll make it worth your while. ☆ Oh, and don't tell anyone. Upon receiving this message, Blanca will notice that the castle appears closer than usual. Should he head towards it, he will finally be able to reach its entrance. Inside is a large hall with various doors, along with a staircase, but he will be able to access only a single door. Once he steps inside, he will find his Leader waiting for him. After their meeting is over and he leaves the castle, he will no longer be able to reach the castle again. As the Rook: Every Thursday, the Rook will be given the chance to stay awake on Thursday night. They can select up to a certain number of locations, depending on the week, and the order in which to check them. Any area bolded in the Locations page is an option, but note that implicit locations, such as the river, can be selected as well. The mods will inform the player of what can be found at a glance (if anything) at the chosen locations, depending on the timing. From there, the character can choose to do nothing or take one of the following actions:
★ They can choose a piece of evidence to examine. They will receive a hint of what the evidence was involved in. ★ They can alter the scene, whether this means adding evidence or removing evidence (or any other misc. action). The total number of specific actions the Rook can take that night will depend on how many locations they originally chose to investigate, with fewer locations meaning more actions—they have only so many hours to check things out, after all! Therefore, the Rook will have to choose between increasing the likelihood of finding anything at all versus being able to take more actions should they succeed. If they come across the murder as it occurs, they will not be able to interfere, nor will they see the culprit's identity clearly. Likewise, the culprit will not be aware of the Rook's presence. Additional notes: The Rook will be allowed to ask questions about the on-goings of the game and communicate with their Leader in their weekly meetings. They may receive small hints should they perform well. However, the information received will be up to their Leader's discretion. |

First, as Blanca arrives at the Swamp:
There doesn’t appear to be anything out of place here at a glance.
Then, at the Fort:
Fox, Hansa, and Soo-won seem to be asleep here. Nothing else looks out of place at a glance.
Finally, at the Howling Rose:
Mob, Bucky, Xie Lian, and Hua Cheng seem to be asleep here.
Furthermore, he will see (paper) arrow signs, pointing towards the upper deck. There, he will find a figure dragging a bloodied body to a large cannon, leaving behind a trail of blood. They then stuff the body into said cannon, along with a knife. Afterwards, they toss a gun overboard into the sea, before they leave the ship.
Blanca can do up to 3 actions (listed in the post) in total, in any of the locations he checked. ICly, he will be doing/have done this at the time he’s at said location. What will he do/have done? ]

★ He will investigate the swamp further. (will i waste an action, probably)
★ At the Howling Rose, he's going to examine the knife.
★ I have no idea if this is even remotely possible, but is he able to retrieve the gun to leave it on the ship like "adding evidence," or... does he just retrieve it, or does it not work because it got thrown into the damn sea goodbye.
no subject
In the Howling Rose, Blanca will get the sense that the knife was not the murder weapon.
The gun is lost in the sea forever, so no, Blanca can't retrieve it. But we will be nice and not let that waste your action, so you can do something else! ]

★ At the Howling Rose, he's going to alter the scene by removing the knife.
