**INT – A DARK CORNER OF THE CABIN BASEMENT**

_Close on a window, showing the setting sun. The camera pans from the window to a figure sitting nearby. It is a strange demon, small and twisted; it looks more like a child’s doll than an actual flesh-and-blood being, but its glowing red eyes betray its true nature. It addresses its unseen co-conspirators._

TINY DEMON  
Sun’s almost down. Brace yourselves, everyone; it’s going to be an interesting night.

**CUT TO – AN UPSTAIRS BATHROOM (INT)**

_We hear the sound of water running. The camera finds **Omi No Kami** sleeping peacefully with his head against the shower wall. Suddenly he awakens, screaming in surprise and dismay. After a beat, he fumbles for the shower controls._

OMI NO KAMI  
Cold! Cold! The hot water’s gone? I must have been in here all day.

_He turns off the faucet… but as he does, we see a shadow move past the closed shower curtain._

**CUT TO – EXT – THE DIRT FIELD BEHIND THE WOOD CHIPPER**

_The camera approaches the figure of **Rysto** , on his knees, scrabbling in the dirt with wild-eyed intensity. So absorbed in his task is he that he does not see the long, dark shadow that approaches him from behind._

**CUT TO – INT – A HALLWAY IN THE CABIN**

_Various partygoers mill about, in and out of rooms. At one end of the hallway stands **Idle Thoughts** , watching the crowd intensely. After a moment his eyes narrow, focusing on something or someone out of the camera’s view. He begins to move down the hallway with grim purpose._

**CUT TO – THE BASEMENT AGAIN**

_We see the tiny demon from before._

TINY DEMON  
They’ll never know what hit them.

**CUT TO – THE BATHROOM AGAIN**

_ **Omi No Kami** has emerged from the shower, the camera perspective concealing enough of his form to avoid an NC-17 rating. He looks around for a towel, approaches a closet. As he places his hand on the doorway, we hear a strange sound from within._

OMI NO KAMI  
What was that?

_He throws open the linen closet. We switch to a POV shot, from within the closet, staring out at **Omi’s** horrified face._

OMI NO KAMI (terrified whisper)  
What in the hell is that?

_OMI’s face suddenly gets larger, as the figure in the closet leaps at him. We fade from his terrified grimace to:_

**EXT – THE DIRT FIELD**

_We see **Rysto’s** body, sprawled near the hole he was attempting to dig. The camera pans away from his body to the edge of the cornfield, a few feet away – where sits **Rysto’s** head._

**CUT TO – THE BASEMENT**

TINY DEMON  
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

**CUT TO – THE HALLWAY, OUTSIDE IDLE’S ROOM**

_From within we hear an ear-splitting scream. Two nearby extras burst into the room, calling._

EXTRA 1  
Idle? Idle? Are you all –

_But the room is empty… save for a strange pile of ash in the middle of the floor. Atop the ash sits a necklace with a nondenominational religious symbol attached._

**CUT TO – THE BASEMENT**

TINY DEMON  
Ahh… that was tremendously satisfying. Don’t you think?

_He looks around, but there is no one there. His fellows have all gone on to other tasks, or to sleep. Then, he catches sight of something else, something nearby, regarding him. His face falls._

TINY DEMON  
Oh, you have _got_ to be freaking kidding me.

_His death wail, when it comes, is more resigned than horrified._

**CUT TO – THE KITCHEN – DAWN**

_The group, now noticeably smaller, gathers. Late to arrive is **Telecontar**. Finally he stumbles in, bleary eyed._

TELCONTAR  
Hey, guys, sorry, I slept like crap. What’s up? What are you all looking at?

\*POV - the rest of the group. In bright red letters, composed of fire, the word “Scum” has been etched across **Telcontar’s** forehead. \*

TELCONTAR  
What’s up?

_Cut to – THE ZOMBIE SQUIRREL, sitting on top of the refrigerator. It regards the camera, chitters for a moment – it’s still very cute, although it now has no nose or left paw – then scurries away._

* * *

**Omi No Kami,** The Stubborn Skeptic, who was Town (Vanilla), has died.

So has **Idle Thoughts,** the Inexperienced Religious Figure, who was Town (Investigative).

Also **Rysto** , the Grave Robber, who was Town (Other), as well.

And, finally, the fourth death of Night Two: **Astral Rejection** , the Trickster, who was Scum (Other).

To avoid the inevitable questions: no player on this list was mod-killed; all have died as a result of in-game mechanics.

Day Three begins now, and will end on Saturday at around 4:00PM EST. Have fun.

OK, I can confirm that **NAF1138** is in fact the Grizzled Cop, with no special powers. However, please note that this does not confirm him as Town, just vanilla.

So Idle decided against telling us who he investigated…and now he is dead and we don’t know.

:sigh:

Down two scum, woohoo, but still I feel like we are a probably bit behind. The extra semi confirmation of a townie would have been helpful.

OK. I got investigated by Oy! last Night, it tickled. Still don’t have the book so the taking of it seems to have been real (I was sort of hoping that it would reappear at some point).

Time to start looking into connections between Astral Rejection, Peeker and other players.

Maybe we don’t _ **know** _, but I think this gives us a subtle hint:

And it looks like **Astral** was the Tiny Demon. Huh, he plays two games and plays Scum both times.

It seems to me that **Astra** did the Night Kill, but I could be wrong. Still no sign of who the SK(s) might be.

Nice and easy eh? And yeah, he was clearly protesting way too much. Obviously he knew what would happen if he got investigated.

What exactly makes you say that? Are you just interpreting the color to get Tiny Demon=Trickster?

I’m not arguing against that interpretation…it’s just that I didn’t see it until I went back to see where you might have gotten the idea from.
