Event Annex - The Senate Room

[pumpkinhollow]

CRY HAVOC, AND LET SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR.

W

elcome, esteemed guests, to the Senate Room.

The rules of the game are simple. You have a word over your head that you cannot see, and the same word written on a piece of paper in an envelope that also contains a key. There is a door out of this room. Each key opens the door for only one person. You can see the words above others' heads, but you cannot say them, nor can you say any direct synonyms that might give it away too easily, nor can you spell the word or its synonyms. You must find other ways to describe it to allow the other person to guess. More abstract. Get creative with it.

If you believe you know the word, speak it aloud and open your envelope to retrieve your key. If you are correct, you can leave without incident. If you are wrong, your organs will immediately fail and you will die.

Here are the words each participant has been assigned. Players can use them to refer to other players' characters to help them guess, and you can use them to check your answers when you guess, but you can also OOCly know your answer provided you don't use it to ICly cheat. Good luck.

CT laughs a very bitter laugh. "Oh, good, we can use it to give ourselves papercuts or maybe start a fire. I'm sure that'll help."

Well fucking played, Eligos. They should've seen something like this coming.

"Helping each other seems like our best bet," she sighs, sitting forward, eyes flicking to Aloy's word. They still try to flicker gold even though there's no use in it, she'll have a damn headache if she gets out of this alive.

"I guess it's probably not as straightforward as just telling me what it says," Aloy mutters. "Any hints?"

[liesdontfindyou]

"Definitely not that simple, there's some sort of— block on even saying any of the words I've seen." Hey, she had to try. Sue the Eye Avatar for being curious about how this all works. "Let's see. Yours..."

She chews the inside of her cheek, already wanting for the beads she obviously did not wear to goddamn bed.

"...the kind of person who never gives up on anything, but framed as a negative thing?"
