Circle of Assassins XIII: Wonderland Bloodbath

Circle of Assassins XIII: Wonderland Bloodbath

Dusk. You've entered the rabbit hole to a new world of trouble. Project Oystercloud is in shambles, and the Queen is supposedly recovering from an assassination attempt. The Mad Hatter, the former leader of the Queen's assassins has disappeared. The White Rabbit hasn't been seen for weeks. Some say Mary Ann is in the same kind of trouble.

The Walrus has taken over the Mad Hatter's position, claiming to still be receiving orders from the Queen.

Your new orders have arrived. You are to kill everyone you are working with. The Queen wants the whole department cleared from top to bottom. What you don't realize is that everyone else has received the same orders. Who will make it out alive?

Shamelessly copied then altered from Lex-Kat, who copied it from Szilard.
Characters: You are a member of the Queen of Wonderland's assassins. Anything with a Lewis Carroll flavor will do.
"Twas bryllyg, and ye slythy toves
Name, Number: What is your character's name or alias? Also, every assassin has a code number for identification; what is yours?
Did gyre and gymble in ye wabe:
Description: Hopefully you aren't invisible; describe yourself!
All mimsy were ye borogoves:
Weapons/Skills: Describe what weapons, defenses, or skills you have that will help you survive this battle to be the last one standing.
And ye mome raths outgrabe."
Secret: PM me the secret you wish to hide from your fellow assassins. Don't let anyone else know; it may be the death of you.

Now, what does our fearless leader have to hide? ((Sample Profile))

Name: The Walrus

Number: 083.
Weapons/Skills: A Friend in Need: Whenever the Walrus gets into a jam, he knows he can call on the Carpenter to help him.

Game Rules:

Spoiler

Show

I Character creation

1. Post your character's name and a description in the recruitment thread.
1.1 The name should be appropriate for the theme of the game.
1.2 The description should include at least the character's favored method of killing. Other details on his appearance, personality and modus operandi are also appreciated.
2. Send the Narrator your character's secret in a PM. What the secret is depends on the theme of the game, but it is usually a secret identity or vulnerability.

Secret: PM this to me: do NOT post it on the game thread. This may be a skeleton in your character's closet or an actual physical weakness.

II The game round

1. The Narrator post a list of all remaining characters, and a list of secrets that are connected to those characters.
2. Send the Narrator a PM with a guess. If you can guess correctly which secret belongs to which character, that character dies at the end of the round. Write your guess in the following format: [character] is [secret]
2.1 Once you've sent your PM, you cannot change your guess. The only exception to this rule is that if your target is invalid, you can change your target.
2.2 You can only target characters and secrets listed by the Narrator.
2.3 You cannot target your own character, but you can target your character's secret.
2.4 The deaths occur simultaneously, and thus it is possible for two characters to kill each other, or even for all remaining characters to die on the same round.
2.5 If two or more players kill the same target, it counts as an assisted kill for each of the players.
2.6 If you don't send a PM to the Narrator, or your PM does not have a valid guess in it, you are considered to be absent on that round. Two consecutive absences result in auto-elimination.
2.7 You are allowed to send your guess in advance if you know you'll otherwise be absent on a round. You may include conditions as necessary to avoid choosing an invalid target.
3. You may roleplay your character in the game thread. It is not obligatory, but it is recommended.
4. You may make pacts with other players. A pact may be public (made in the game thread) or secret (made in PMs). In either case, any such pacts are non-binding.
5. When 72 hours (3 days) have passed or everyone has sent in their PMs, the Narrators narrate the deaths and lists all guesses made that round. The guesses are listed in the following format: [character A]: [character B] is [secret] (miss!/HIT!)
6. The Narrators checks how many players are left.
6.1 If there are no characters alive, the game is over and there is no winner.
6.2 If there is one character left, that player wins the game. If there are two characters left, the one with more kills wins; if it's still a tie, unassisted kills determine the winner.
6.3 If there are three or more characters left, a new round begins.

[Cuthalion]

I'm in, my character will be too.

What's a "dewgong"? I'm aware of a dugong, but evidently this is something different.

[Yumori Zatsuken]

A dewgong is probably Mountain Dew mixed with a Dugong

Dugong is a Philippine animal, I think.

I suck at Puns.

Anyway, i'm in

[Kalrany]

So is it only Carrol characters, or just made-up characters that have that Carrol flare (either from another author, or something completely orginal)? My knowledge is limited and hazy for this one. It's been..... a while.

EDIT: Forgot to say I would like to play. When will you be starting the game, approximatly? I will need to think on the character. I have one original, and another from another literature source that I think I can make work well... I just would like a quick clarification before working them up totally... :)

[Count Dingdong]

Dewgong is a Pokemon, based off of a dugong. It evolves from Seel, based similarly off of a seal.

I, however, am the Keyrat.

Description: This small, black rodent runs around with a wedge of cheese hung around its neck. He is rather energetic and can't sit still, chattering furiously with gossip as it runs from here to there. There is a red bow tied at the end of its tail.
Number: 183-O
Weapons/Skills: Trigger Traps - When you don't have much strength, traps become your friends...
Misplacement - Due to his small size, people lose track of him very easily, and he can slip into small holes.
Entry, Bar None - He is adept at finding ways into and out of places, making him great at getting into and out of locked rooms.
Unlock - He is constantly searching for the Dormouse to feed him his cheese and awaken the sleeper agent. He might just know the truth of the matter and will protect the Keyrat.
Secret: Is deathly afraid of the Cheshire Cat.

There's no way I'm staying out of an Alice in Wonderland theme!

[Zar Peter]

I'm not very fluent with Carrol characters but I take the hint from the narration for my description

Name: The nearly invisible man

Number: 029

Description: He's invisible except his hands, which are strong and sinewy. On one hand he's missing the little finger. And he's always wearing a green hat which isn't invisible, either.

Weapons: He has a big, scary sword on his back which is invisible as long as he's not holding it in his hand. Most embarassing thing is when he can't find it in the morning.

Secret: He had the words "LOVE" and "HATE" tattooed on his fingers but when he lost his little finger leaving only "HAT" on the right hand he decided to swim with the flow and bought a hat.

[Sabeki]

I'll be in as The Ace of Hearts. First tine playing this game.

Description: Lanky hair, very muscular, dressed in red. (Not foing too much here.)
Weapon: Two daggers, shaped in a heart shape and a spear with a razor heart on tip.
Secret: His real name is Ambergreen.
Biography: Ace was once a man, like you or I. Bit soon, after multiple boiling cups of tea tossed into his face, he was forced to have many, many implants into his body.
Since he's a better fighter than everyone, he became part of the Queens elite guard. However, this new attempt has left him shakey, and feeling useless.

[Penguinator]

Sorry, my PM box is full. I wasn't thinking that far ahead. >_< I have two secrets, I'll get on that.

[Tris]

I'm in. I will be posting a character later.

[Penguinator]

So is it only Carrol characters, or just made-up characters that have that Carrol flare (either from another author, or something completely orginal)? My knowledge is limited and hazy for this one. It's been..... a while.

Original stuff is fine, but I'd prefer that a non-original character be from Carroll, rather than anyone else.

EDIT: Forgot to say I would like to play. When will you be starting the game, approximately? I will need to think on the character. I have one original, and another from another literature source that I think I can make work well... I just would like a quick clarification before working them up totally... :)

It won't start until at least the 25th, so you have time.

Dewgong is a Pokemon, based off of a dugong. It evolves from Seel, based similarly off of a seal.

Quite.

[Szilard]

I'm in. Character up later at some point.

[Tris]

My character.

Name: The Kitten

[Penguinator]

My character.

Name: The Cheshire Kitten or The Kitten

Inconspicuous: There’s nothing strange about a cat walking around.
Stealthy: Like a cat.
Fast: The fastest cat in Wonderland.
Claws and teeth: Will rip out your thought.

Secret: Was adopted.

Actually, I think you ought to look at the Alice is Dead wiki to see more on the Cheshire Cat. It's not quite the same as in the Carroll novels. More for the backstory than anything.

[Tris]

Ah, right. I've played Alice is Dead, but it's been a while. I'll make some changes.

[Yumori Zatsuken]

Okie, I just made my character

[Lex-Kat]

IN. Now to sleep on it.

[Kensen]

I guess I'll join too if I come up with a suitable character. :)

[Penguinator]

As a note, the only real qualification for a character is something nonsensical. Whatever odd ideas you've got are welcome, folks.

[bladescape]

Hyped on coffee and in a bad need of sleeples. I am in but I shall not provide character until the day, hour, and minute that hath been ordained by the seventh node of the heavenly bodies. Or I wake up. Either or.

[Lex-Kat]

Name: Lexington Scallion Mistress of Misdirectionism

Number: X¹³ + Y⁷

Description: A tall blonde woman, with curling hair that falls down just past her shoulders.

No one ever sees her face. No one alive, that is. Her black velvet top hat has a veil that perfectly conceals her visage.

She wears typical Victorian Dress: Chemise, Corset, Under Petticoat, Crinoline, Over Petticoat, and finally, the Dress itself.

The color of dress she prefers are of light pastel colors, usualy blues and/or pinks.

Weapons/Skills:

Parasol of Paralysis: The black lace parasol she carries everywhere holds a deadly secret. Those struck find they cannot move, leaving them to her mercy or malevolence.

Giggle of Giddiness: When Lexington giggles, most admirers can't keep from giggling along. This induces a hypnotic euphoria that temporarily brings them under her control, making them her unwillingly willing slaves.

The Unveiling: Those who find Lexington's form to be appeasing to the eye, say they are willing to die for one peak under her veil. Little do they know, that it will be. What is under her veil? Is it a face so beautiful as to drive one to suicidal insanity? Is it so horrible as to stop the onlookers heart from fright? Take a peek, find out.

Secret: Lexington is dead inside. The view under the veil depends on the one looking. Oh, was that two secrets?

[DarkLightDragon]

Oooooh, this sounds interesting!

Name: The Gardener
Description: The Gardener is a short old man who looks pleasant enough. With his unassuming worker's uniform, white hair and kindly smile, it's hard to think he could be a deadly assassin.
Number: 211
Weapons/Skills: Hedge Clippers: The tool of the trade. Also a surprisingly effective murder weapon.
Army of Plants: It's amazing how loyal plants can be when you take care of them properly, and with the bizarre, exotic species the Gardener collects...
Pack of Many Spores: The things you plant have to come from somewhere, you know! Not recommended for general contact or consumption as any number of horrific side effects may occur.
Wonder Water: The Gardener has devised a special formula that he uses for watering his garden. Wonderful for plants, awful for non-plants.

[Penguinator]

There are a lot of sad faces on the table...

[bladescape]

Name, Number:
The Jabberwock, 1872
Beware the Jabberwock, my son

Description:
Few people know what the Jabberwock looks like, other than the flaming eyes and the deadly, razor-sharp claws. Most of the time the creature is hidden in shadows, but a few have seen the cruel and deadly jaws. A few have seen them and lived.
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch

Weapons/Skills:
1. Claws, jaws, other sharp appendages. Don't get near the Jabberwock.
2. He's fast.
3. No one knows.
Beware the jubjub bird, and shun

Secret:
He is easily entranced by local jubjub birds and is careful not to be near them when on a mission. The birds instill an odd sort of placidity in the beast.
The frumious bandersnatch!

[Vagoasdf]

The Mirror-ling


Number:2,8

Description: (s)He is a strange... "entity" made of pure reflecting glass, a living mirror sort of, While it looks sometimes like a humam being, walking in two legs, it also can be on four legs (assuming those are legs).

Weapons/skills:
Glass sharp weapon: Nobody surely know what is it. ¿A knife? ¿A sword? only thing we know is that it cuts like a sharp glass
Mirroring Camo: Being a mirror entity, he is great at hiding in mirrors, windows, and walls that have a simetric theme
Are you Shapeless?: It can aparently adapt his shape in many ways... or is that his real shape?

Secret: He hates the winter, the ice and the snow
(PS: And now i PM the GM another Secret, like the real secret? or is this secret conected to the other?? I lost it a bit)

[Lex-Kat]

Now you PM the narrator the real secret. Hopefully one that has nothing to do with the one you posted here.

[Cuthalion]

The Walrus, π

[Kalrany]

Name, Number:
Nobody, 77
(with ‘Cat, 42)

Description:
Nobody is non-descript: average height, build, age, and gender. Commonly found dressed in various shades of grey (for example, a grey suit with light grey pinstripes, a grey cloak, and grey hat with grey shoes). Rarely speaks at great volume, or extremely animated. He is commonly seen walking his grey ‘cat without a leash. So unremarkable, few notice neither that Nobdy carries a sword (in a grey scabbard) nor that the cat has six limbs. Plesent personality. Longtime friend and gin-partner of the White King.

Weapons/Skills:
1. Sword.
2. The ‘cat: blade-like retractable claws, can high/long jump over three times it’s body length.
3. ‘Cat-like reflexes and low light vision. Borderline empathic connection to familiar (Nobody, ‘cat)
4. Overlooked.

“… Just look along the road, and tell me if you can see either of them.'

`I see nobody on the road,' said Alice.

`I only wish I had such eyes,' the King remarked in a fretful tone. `To be able to see Nobody! And at that distance, too! …”

Secret:
Nobody’s direct superior is… the ‘cat. Nobody has chosen not to protest this arrangement, despite being the only fully verbal member of the duo. The 'cat loves strawberry pie.

Finally, my secret plan to confuse all players by posting secrets in the open came to fruit. Now I have to think of a way to make profit out of it

[Kalrany]

Quick Question:

Is this a PM game or are QTs going to be (able to be) set up? Just asking!

[Penguinator]

Quick Question:

Is this a PM game or are QTs going to be (able to be) set up? Just asking!

QTs are fine; I made one for the last game.

...Hell, I may make you all QTs so I don't have to regularly clear my PM box.
