You blink at your plate.

The remaining portion of your favorite dish greets your eyes, and the taste of the last bite still lingers pleasantly on your tongue. It's a tantalizing prospect to ignore everything and return to your meal here, you know this isn't right. And as heady as the scent of food may be, it fails to drown out the sounds and sights of the other patrons who sit with you at the dining table. The dining room you're in is long, housing a refectory table, just the perfect size for each and every one of you.

Odd, that the table settings are just right.

And somewhere from the depths of your blurry memories do you recall a voice; a voice that said:

"Is there something you wish over anything else?"

There was, but that was before you found yourself here.

The windows grant you no answers, merely the night sky above the silhouettes of trees, a large full moon illuminating the scenery. The leaves are swaying, the stars are twinkling, a seemingly peaceful and idyllic night.

Until the sound of a crow cuts through the rest.

CODE BY TESSISAMESS

What's in a wish? What would you do to make your deepest desire come true? Wishing is for children, you say, and fairy tales are cheap words for fools? But every fable contains a grain of truth, and one does not need to be a child to grasp at hope. And what's the harm in believing just a little...?

Welcome one and all to the interest check for Once Upon, a fantasy murdergame set to run in late May 2021, by Nick creatorofathousanduniverses, Fishy fishytasty and Limon ilfoie, former mods of antumbrac. All characters will be spirited away to a fairy-tale land, though not completely against their will. You see, to gain passage into the magical land of Aira Niluc, each and every character will have had to make a wish. In Aira Niluc, all wishes are held equal, whether they were on a shooting star, a wishing well or even muttered under a breath as an afterthought. As long it is something that the the wisher genuinely desires, passage can be granted. The fairies of Aira Niluc do not judge, as it is someone's actions that matter, rather than the content of their wish.

❦ Open to everyone, no invites needed, but reserves are required; maximum of 30 characters in game.

❦ Murder mystery style with scapegoating permitted; PCs are allowed.

❦ Investigations on Friday at 3 PM EST, Trial on Saturday at 12 PM EST, and Player Executions on Sunday.

❦ Murders will be determined by a kill proposal system with some help to encourage characters to murder weekly, but there will be no motives in the usual form.

❦ Weekly events that encourage CR between characters will be provided; these are not time sensitive and can be accomplished throughout the week (ie: GMT/early birds no need to wreck your sleep schedule!)

❦ The return of an old favorite, roles; more on that as the game approaches, but you can expect some classic ones and some new ones.

❦ Open to canon characters aged 16 and older, 14+ with maturity clause.

❦ Reserves open May 22nd, 3PM EST, with game start at May 29th; we expect the game to run for 6-7 weeks.

❦ Check out our FAQ for more info, and follow Once_Upon for updates!
