WEEK 1: TRIAL

[dropoffs]

WEEK 1 TRIAL     43 CREW ACTIVE

 

ALL CREW MEMBERS, PLEASE REPORT TO THE CONFERENCE HALL AT 1200 HOURS. REPEAT, ALL CREW MEMBERS REPORT TO THE CONFERENCE HALL AT 1200 HOURS.

I.R.I.S. SYSTEMS ARE UPDATING TO ALLOW SHIP AND CONCOURSE-WIDE ACCESS AT THIS TIME IN PREPARATION FOR INVESTIGATION AND RESOLUTION OF THE EVENTS FROM THURSDAY EVENING AND FRIDAY MORNING.

ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND COOPERATION.

Good morning, junior crew. With the heavy news of last night carrying into Saturday morning, things are incredibly quiet around the CSS Eudora. You may carry on with your personal business during the morning, but come 11:00, a soothing voice will cut into the air and announce that at 12:00 everyone must report to "the Conference Hall." Strange, however, that it's not on the map.

Never fear, your I.R.I.S. will automatically project a small beam of warm, orange light on the ground, directing you towards an enormous lift stationed by the mess hall. Come 11:50, if you aren't on the lift, you will certianly find yourself moving there physically whether you intend it or not. The lift is capable of carrying every occupant of the Eudora to a sublevel ramp that leads towards the mentioned Conference Hall.

The enormous hall opens up past two large, double doors with the word EUDORA printed over it. Within, a lengthy monitor sprawls across the entirety of it, displaying Thursday night's victims profiles along with a large map of the Eudora herself. With plush, dark seats in rows and a long table at the head of the room where four members of your senior crew await, it is clear what exactly this space is for, especially as the words TRIAL IN SESSION appear on the monitor and an ominous-looking countdown:
09:00:00

DE̶ÇO͝MḾIƧ̸S͢IO̵ИED͞

Welcome to your second trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will have the opportunity to discuss, investigate and theorize about Viktor's murder. Characters will have time to examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations.

There will be a mod-tag break between 4 PM EST / 1 PM PST to 5 PM EST / 2 PM PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

Finally, we have a voting page for characters to vote on the culprit! Please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes at 9 PM EST / 6 PM PST, unless you've spoken with the mods previously, as we'll begin tallying votes on the dot. Voting is mandatory for Spacecoast, acting as our weekly activity check in this game.

Good luck!

EXAMINE EVIDENCE

[dropoffs]

[ once evidence has been turned in and left on the provided tables, comment here with what evidence you want to look at in the subject line and get started with your examination. ]

metal panel

[agamid]

[ he is looking at it! does it look damaged just at a first glance? ]

[dropoffs]

[ at a glance it doesn't look particularly damaged. ]

photograph of nero's foot + footprint

[pyromance]

[ spicy. compared to the bloody footprint, is nero's foot larger or smaller? ]

[dropoffs]

[ smaller ]

FOOTPRINT NAPKIN

[rosebleed]

[Tracker goggles on. What's the size, what's the shape of the print? Any interesting tread on the shoe? Or was it...bare.....]

[dropoffs]

[ it looks like it could be big, but the shape is a bit smudged on the napkin... it is definitely done by a shoe not bare. who would do that. it's a bit difficult to discern any details of the shoe with the blood seeping into the napkin. ]

catbot

[solesuccess]

[ thank you, gregor, for disabling the wheels. how is our state of the catbot on first glance? he's going to be looking at the internal mechanisms first since its panel is missing. ]

[dropoffs]

[ it is angry and raring to go. no it's just disorientated. at a glance it looks perfectly okay otherwise. no other visible damages. looking into the internal mechanisms Shoma will be able to tell right away that it was tampered with. ]

SAUCE CUP

[murdergate]

[ this time, no licking! not immediately. the smell tells him as much. if he sifts a teensy bit out on the table, anything happen? does it react with the metal? ]

[dropoffs]

[ no you should definitely lick it.

it does not react to the metal of the table! ]

book

[naeddre]

[can i look at the book that was on his person? is anything weird about it? blood? is it bookmarked?

if she shakes it does anything come out of it]

PHOTO OF THE FOOD COURT FROM 2ND FLOOR/PARTIAL FOOTPRINTS

[rosebleed]

[Hey i'm back with more feet questions.

Looking at the tracks in these, less likely from the second floor as it is far away but perhaps in the partial/powdered print photos -- does it look like this person was slipping at all in their step? Perhaps walking ungainly?

She's trying to rule out the "killer wore bigger shoes to fool us" theory]

screws

[inquired]

[ do the scuffs here look old? or fresher? ]

metal panel

[riverbeans]

[does it look like the multi-tool would fit the screws of the panel?]

foot check

[ravenry]

[ hello......

can she compare everyone's foot/shoes/what have you here plus dead vikky's to the bloody footprint from the food court? ]

fire extinguisher

[sexyasmieu]

[ looking at the fire extinguisher from the cargo bay! the one that was presumably taken from the wall and ended up on the floor.

how's it look at a glance? any clear damage / stains / etc? ]

cargo bay - cane

[polliwog]

[ hello hello, what does the cane look like? how is it broken -- does it look like it just snapped in half?

is there blood on it? ]

catbot...2

[solesuccess]

[ because it came up he's back to examine catbot! if shoma looks at the mechanics and tries to switch some things around about the robot, is there any way to tell if someone could override its inability to leave the food court? ]

treadmarks

[psynchroneyes]

[ taking the photo of treadmarks here, how do they compare to the catbot that was brought back? does it look like it could have made them? ]

CARGO BAY FOOTPRINT

[naeddre]

[can we compare the clear cargo bay footprint to all the others to see if we got a match for anything, including viktor's shoe]

[verminous]

[ok hello we are handwaving getting an escort for: retrieving roboji and taking him to the cargo bay to compare to wtfever these treads/tracks/etc in there are, since catbot doesn't match. how does he compare.]

medbay hammer

[messy]

[medbay hammer what the fuck were you doing on the ceiling

what does this hammer look like, besides hammer shaped?]

pod 1 handprint - medbay

[riverbeans]

[does the handprint look like it's from a bare hand or clothed, if one can tell?]

hand check

[solesuccess]

[ hello, can we compare the handprint from the medbay pod to this list and also viktor?

also is it a left or a right hand or is it hard to tell? ]
