CAPOREGIME

𝕮
𝖆𝖕𝖔𝖗𝖊𝖌𝖎𝖒𝖊
McGillis and Jack you are the Caporegimes.

After the events of the Welcome Feast, McGillis and Jack will hear a particular melody of a flute, following it (no matter how long it takes) will lead them to an emerald door that is slightly ajar.

On the desk sits a man with light blond hair and an eyepatch, flute between his lips.

❦ The caporegimes are Hamelin's captains, and responsible for making sure that murders happen in a timely cadence. Mainly this is achieved by the caporegimes selecting an effect each week that affects the group at large starting week two. However, Hamelin encourages murder by any means necessary, so a Caporegime who talked someone into murder would be just as welcomed. Manipulation is A-OK!

❦ Effect selection must be agreed upon by Monday 10 AM EST/7AM PST. This can be done entirely on an OOC basis by responding to the weekly thread by any time prior to the deadline. If you would like to thread out selection among the caporegime's and Hamelin, feel free to!

❦ In exchange, the caporegimes will not be required to kill in order to obtain their wish. As long as a murder occurs every week, their wish will be granted at the conclusion of the game. Additionally caporegimes are immune from the weekly effect (but may still find it in their interest to fake it, if necessary).

❦ OOC'ly as long as there is a kill proposal every week, (sans week 1), the caporegimes will be fulfilling their role. In the event of no kill proposals, one of the caporegimes will be tapped to murder that week though they may still select the victim of their choice.

❦ To seal this vow for all parties, both caporegimes will be branded with a symbol at the location of their choosing. It will not be visible unless Hamelin or the caporegime wills it, or in the event of the death.

❦ You can use this page to thread out capo-capo interactions or in a group with Hamelin as you wish. You may still use Hamelin's private post as necessary.

❦ You may divulge your role at any point in the game you like, and to any numbers of characters you like. Be aware, however, that there is no protection offered to the caporegimes. Additionally, there are other roles in the game who may try to thwart your efforts.

[ Indeed, disaster seems to be the pretty unavoidable end result of the trajectory the group had put themselves onto this week. The more optimistic and friendly ones had been confronted with the concept of pathological liars for maybe the first but absolutely not the the last time. McGillis has no doubts that Jack and himself aren't the only ones with skeletons in the closet left. ]

Seems like we are making an easy decision this week.

[ And after a beat: ] Considering the intimate personal experience with night terror, I suppose I could play into the commiseration angle to garner more trust and sympathy. Just as credit to cash in on later.

[ But that would require disclosing more of himself... maybe he'll have to perfect the art of half truth a little, to seem convincing. ]

Let us call it an experiment. It will be their and our first go-around with such a new element, and I daresay it will exert a little more pressure on those already beginning to crack.

[He curls a hand against his chin, fingers tapping lightly against his lips; beneath them, his mouth curves, something just a little predatory in the bow of it. It's there and gone and somehow fleeting, and shifts to match his tone when he speaks again, simple soft contemplation.]

I know not whether a gathering would be helpful each time a trial is held -- it's a wonderful opportunity to observe the workings of the group, both those who attend and those who refuse to attend. But there is such a thing as too much togetherness. We shall see how Miss Edelgard and others of her ilk use their powers of leadership and persuasion from here on out.

[Sometimes, you hold an afterparty both for the sake of bringing everyone together and for the sake of flushing out those left out; the cracks in a group are important, after all, no matter how they move forward.]

In the meantime, perhaps I will invest a little experience in the matter as well. I should remember well enough for that, I think.

Should I say I'm looking forward to your performance, then? Because I am.

[ All the world's a stage and they are the players, truly.

And it's a good chance to see just how good Jack is at lying. For all intents and purposes the two of them are working together through this, but push come to shove it is important to know who you are truly dealing with. ]


I did see use in your little get-together. After the exhaustion of such elongated heated debate, it seems people are more willing to divulge their insecurities. Additionally, you generally project a more positive attitude than I myself could imagine doing, so you are a good candidate for the heart of the community.

[ A rotten rotten heart. ]
