Warmwood Village

[Last night, the Night Watch heard sounds of movement around Kimblee and McDougal's cottage just before daybreak. If they checked inside, they would find McDougal appropriately asleep, but Kimblee missing.]

[As for everyone else, dawn brings the morning announcements from the Shimmering Lady:]

Takano Miyo and Mitsuko, two Sinners, are lost to dreams.
Shuu Tsukiyama, an ordinary villager, is lost to dreams.
Isaac McDougal, an Incubus, is lost to dreams. Please bring me his body that it may be purified, and we shall begin the mourning process for the man he once...

...Wait. Kimblee is McDougal's Soulmate. Why is he awake?

He shouldn't be awake. He lost fair and square. He's breaking the rules. He is a blasphemer and a demon and ugly. Bring him here. Bring him.

Bring him to me.

((Status & Role Distribution
Current Night Watch rotation

So. Wow. Okay. Here's a thing I did not in the least expect to occur this early in the game, because clearly I am a fool.. So we'll be playing this by ear, and day 3 might end up taking more than the scheduled 24 hours (I'll watch it closely and keep everyone updated), but no matter what crazy-ass thing Kimblee decides to do with this, it shouldn't be a gamebreaker. Shimmer won't let anybody die who hasn't already been officially taken out of the game. Unless they explicitly ask me for that to happen, I guess!

Whatever happens, bear in mind the brainwashing rule-of-thumb: You can doubt the words of the Lady/Gentleman, but unless explicitly told otherwise, you can't break out of the world view provided for you, especially if spoken to directly.

If you'd like to consult with the Lady, she's here.
If you'd like to confront Kimblee, that's here.
And if you just wanna run around being useless and angry, come join Cassius over here.))

[Dawn brings with it the warmth of the sun, the scent of flowers, and the sound of birdsong... it also brings with it an unhappy knowledge that demons have possessed members of your village... and that there have been victims in the night.

Haytham and Soulmates Hibari and Lexaeus, all ordinary villagers, can be found in their beds. They are still alive, it would seem, with a faint pulse and shallow breath, but nothing you can do will rouse them. And every once in awhile, it will look as though they are having the most terrible nightmares...

As they were heads of the police force, Hibari and Lexaeus's cottage contains two pairs of handcuffs, for whoever wants to yoink those.]

((At this point everyone has full knowledge of the roles and their distribution, the idea that the demons will take over if their numbers are equal to the faithful, and the fact that there will be a trial starting soon - ICly after lunch, OOCly 4:30PM EST tomorrow.

Re: Soulmates, some pairs are linked in function/role, and some aren't. If you're not "soulmates," you're not. I am very sorry for not making that clear before or after signups; it was my intent from the beginning and the reason why I was so free about numbers, but I only mentioned that was my plan once and briefly while yammering on about partners the whole time, so it was also an extremely careless and frankly kinda dumb miscommunication on my part. I hope it hasn't caused anybody too much trouble, but if it is, PP me and we can figure something out.

Soulmates will also vote together come trial time. If I receive votes from both members and those votes were different, I will use only the first vote, but show the votes as they were cast.

Here's the Shimmering Lady!
