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 investigate an area of the scene further, if they believe more evidence to be hidden.
    ★ 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.

I see. And did you get anything back? Shouldn't it count for you if I help find one of the killers?

That's not very nice. Someone should really benefit from my hard work...

I guess I'll have to accept what I'm given. Some very mischievous people got thrown out of Heaven for having knowledge.

You didn't answer the question, by the way. Whether or not you got something back.

[His brows furrow slightly.]

It might be to some. Is there a stipulation for it?

It does. [Hate it.] I guess we'll have to figure that part out. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

When I'm looking around at night, do you have any advice?

Don't ever think you're too old not to learn new things. That's the biggest mistake you can make.

You're terribly tough to please, Fox.

[A small smile.]

I was asking under the assumption you might know a little more about the Realm and the places it opens to us. If you heard anything throughout the week.

Maybe certain places to look, or how to search.

Not bad advice. I'll keep it in mind.

Should I thank you for your words of encouragement?
