Event Annex - The Senate Room

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.

It's the insult that makes his tongue want to wag with an equally agitated but bland, you're welcome for simply making the offer. Ethan's jaw stays snapped shut. A myriad of responses could waterfall out of him, each just as fed up as the last, but a shred of sympathy keeps him quiet. Being stuck in this room until they're let out makes no difference to him. His thick brows raise as the man with rabbit ears slinks deeper inside himself. He knows guarded, thoughtful posture when he sees it.

"Don't worry about that right now. Let's try to get you out first, alright? If we need to recruit people for my word, we can. There's lots of us here." As badly as Ethan wants out, this man is no help under pressure if this is how he handles it. Better to clean house, calm him down by ensuring his survival, and move from there.

"Alright," he readies himself, staring at the insulting formation of the word Cowardly sat atop bunnyman's head and.. Ethan clears his throat. "Charades." Nods.

"...Aaah!?"

Shouts in rather bland attempt at displaying cowardice.

Sasa, who's been skulking about, immediately shoots up to his full 2'11" height at Ethan's shout. He peeks around the chairs to see if anyone's attacked his new employer.
