The sadly depleted team of heroes gathered together. Tempers were frayed and tension was running high. “I know just what everyone needs,” said Dorian, “Chocolate. There’s nothing like chocolate from Tevinter to ease a troubled mind.”
“I’m not sure that the Wardens would approve of such indulgence,” said Blackwall.
“Ah yes, but then surely you are not bound by such restrictions, Thom?”
“That’s true,” he agreed, as he helped himself from the gold lidded, purple box.
Dorian took a chocolate from the gold box with the purple lid; then turned to Vivienne and offered her one. “Madame de Fer, would you care for one of these.”
“Oh, if you insist, darling.”
As she took it into her mouth, the Heartbreaker’s disguise melted away and yet she didn’t care, she found him so irresistibly attractive.
The Heartbreaker Chocolatier wondered why the ghost of Florianne was laughing like a maniac.
s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/f1/b8/d0/f1b8d041f18a805539b906c5fb07c99b.jpgIsn’t that what you are thinking right now? Surely, though, you didn’t think Corypheus was really behind the Chocolatier? My agents are everywhere and pulling the strings of the Venatori is child’s play for an ancient Dreamer like me, particularly with so many friends in the spirit world. I just thought death by chocolate was a better way to go for my colleagues in the Inquisition than burning in the chaos to come. You’re welcome.

Well, congrats Venatori, and well done Fylimar, staying hidden the entire game! Well deserved win for the spies I'd say. And nice twist at the end for Solas being behind it! Thanks Gervaise for running an entertaining and yummy game. Adonniel, It was a rough ride for the heroes, but we did the best we could. Better luck next time! I'm looking forward to seeing what you have planned for the next one!

Actually you were meant to PM me with the answer but no matter. People can see that it is sufficiently vague that I cannot be accused of bias. (Hint: Both boxes have purple on them). Actually Fylimar has already chosen correctly. Also, just for the record, even if I allowed both people to survive the outcome would still be the same, it would just take longer. Yeah, your reply to my Q doesn't mean anything to me. It means nothing. Hence, my choice. It's exactly the same answer Saladin gave to Balian; Nothing. Everything.

Thanks for taking care of the game Gerva. You have lots of fun ideas. I'm assuming that when it comes to the boxes, the player wouldn't know which spirit they are addressing (unless you do know, in which case you simply ask the Honesty spirit for the right answer.) I believe a way to determine which box is safe with the question: If I asked the other spirit which box leads to life what box would they point at? In this case both would point at the box that contains death and you need to choose the opposite to live. Of course Solas was behind it! That greedy gremlin! Sorry Space, it seems I'm all evil now.

This idea has been floating around for a while.
Game 8 will have two roles that have special abilities: Cullen and Leliana
The rest will be minor Skyhold characters who have no special abilities. Please let me know if you wish to add a minor character. Here is the compiled list:
Harrit Helisma Surgeon Librarian Gatsi Mother Giselle Elan Ve'Mal Cabot Sutherland Lysette Threnn Bonny Sims Adan Ser Morris Seggrit
Rule Modifications:
This round you are allowed to shout your role from the top of the tree and rp it in whichever way you deem suitable.
Game 8 sign-up is Open
1.

Would it be okay to include multi-player characters, since we do run into them around the castle, or do they have to be definitely non playable?

I never saw any run around the castle.. maybe it's only if you play mp? I know a term multi-player. It is used to describe a type of game that has real people creating heroes and running around together in the same environment. Game Examples: EverQuest, World of Warcraft For example: You and I can create two heroes. We log into the game and we see each other. We can group together and talk to each other inside the game chat window. But, you're still running around as an original hero you create. You aren't assuming Dorian's identity and running around as him. I don't know in this case what Gerva is referring to.

They have similar things. You create a character and join others in running through a dungeon. Those characters are set though. Dwarf legionnaire or keeper etc. I never bothered with it and I see you didn't either.

I used to play everquest years ago I played EQ1 the Gloomingdeep Mines trial without getting the whole game. The entire idea, story and atmosphere was excellent, but it had some older game dynamics that bothered me. I can't say I enjoyed sitting on butt forever to recover health or having trouble playing in 3rd person view because when you try to grab loot, you keep grabbing your own butt instead. I bought EQ2 on disk years ago. I believe it didn't have any expansions yet. I was not familiar with this type of game and didn't realize that you had to pay monthly subscription. I ended up playing for one month before time ran out. Was HUGELY impressed by it, but I was in school and didn't have money to pay monthly rate. Then I played it more years later when it changed to free. I still rate it as one of my favourites, but nothing can beat the original impression and at that point it stopped being for groups. The armour upgrades and mercs were in and this made it possible to just solo all dungeons for older players.

I wasn't aware who they were until I got World of Thedas 2 and it mentioned people who were the Inquisition's Agents. Some of them sounded really cool characters and I recognised one or two names from the War Table missions, so I went on the Wiki to check and it mentioned how their main use was in multi-player but they are also mentioned on the War Table and you do get to see and overhear them talking (I think) as you wander around Skyhold if you look carefully. Whilst some were added to the list later, the original Agents were:
Ser Belinda Darrow - Human Templar Korbin - Dwarven Warrior - Legion of the Dead Katari - Tal Vashoth Warrior Tamar - Human Reaver - Original Haven Andraste Cult
Argent - Human rogue Orlesian assassin Luka - Dwarf rogue - ex Carta survivor of Vimmark group Hall - Human archer - befriended as an orphan child by a Dalish hunter until old enough to fend for himself Thornton - Freemarcher human scout
Neria - Dalish First from Clan Gisharel Cillian - formerly First to Clan Gisharel - later spent years in isolation at a remote shrine learning to be an arcane warrior. Sidony - Raised in Nevarra by a Mortalitasi mage close to the Pentaghast family. Rion - Former member of the Ostwick Circle - originally committed to mage rebellion but then started to look for a peaceful compromise.
It is possible for people to go on-line and research their background if you did decide to include them.

That is COOL! Now I have another hobby! I'm going to walk around Skyhold and try to identify all these guys! Booonus content. We need to save this list into word document and maybe use these ones in the future game. For writing reasons, at present I'd prefer to stick with the characters I'm more familiar with hence I'm not into multi-player or reading game literature, but I think I remember Korbin from Origin. Our party met him at the bridge at Orzamar, but I've never seen him at Skyhold. I know we have Gatsi who reconstructs the mosaics, but that's not Korbin right? Edit: You've written 12 characters, which is pretty much a full game list. So maybe we can run two villager games. We can use these guys in a game following this one. _____________ I'd prefer to leave the roles as unchanged as possible, but the pointy eared gremlin is far too useless and no one has been able to use his skill successfully so far. I'm going to have to fix it for the future. Solas: Your connection to the Fade wards you. You are immune to day time elimination on days 1 and 3.

Congratulations to my fellow accomplices for earning the first win as spies! Hero did an awesome job as the spy coming in later! Flyimar was amazing as HB as well. All of you guys know by now that flyimar did in fact turned me after the first round. What you guys didn't know however, was that I investigated her during the night. This was mostly on a hunch. Nothing about flyimar's behavior during the first round was actually suspicious, but my gut feeling told me to check her nonetheless. Imagine my reaction when I was told that not only did I found the HB, but she found me as well! Incredible! Kudos goes to flyimar for that play! Kudos goes to chocolate for being delicious And kudos to all of us for the win! Best spy team! ETA: Sign me up for another round!

Game 8 sign-up list
1. romice 2. gervaise24 3. pelassarias 4.
This game feels like HB was balancing on the knife's edge all game long since she was up on the chopping block 3 times during the game as well as she got investigated, but managed to avoid it every time.

She just introduced a pile of new characters, so join the club.. we don't know how they will turn out either. No need to actually know the characters in DAI to play this, just what they can do in this day/night game.
