Well, this is the beginning of Umineko the RP. The players of this game are going to be:

-Human side:

Ozaki

Kinjo

Eriko 556 (temporal NPC)

-Sorcerer side

B.U.L.

The rules of this game and the OoC are in the other thread

I hope we can have fun playing this game.

----

"Welcome to Rokkenjima"

Said calmly Kanon to the ones that came out of the boat. He, along with his 'sister' Shannon, had been waiting for the boat to arrive with the members of the Ushiromiya family. Today was October 4th, the day of the annual conference of the Ushiromiya family, the day when all the relatives meet again to talk about how were they doing with their respective business and a chance for the young cousins to be together and talk about their daily issues. All those family members were now here talking to each other after leaving the boat just like the beginning of the previous conference, however something was different from that conference: Rudolf's son, Battler, was also standing there for the first time since six years ago. Battler was happily chatting with his cousins George and Jessica while the little Maria was still making fun of him for how he reacted to the speed of the boat that they used to go from Nijima to Rokkenjima. Although he was clearly embarrassed, it could be noted that he was really very happy to see them all again. On the other side, Kinzo's sons were speaking about the usual stuff, about their childhood memories, their future plans, the new trends, types of tea and their preparations... Sometimes Kyrie and Hideyoshi, Rudolf's current wife and Eva's husband respectively would add some new information for themselves and sometimes start a new topic of discussion.

When the groups reached the point where Kanon and Shannon were they greeted them.

-You should be the young master Battler. -said Kannon respectfully while bowing- It's a pleasure to meet you.

-Oh, and you are... -asked Battler.

-Yes it's right, you probably don't know him -answered his Kyrie, his stepmother- he is an employee that had started working here since three years ago, his name is Kanon and he is the one that assumes the role of the mansion's gardener.

-I see, -said Battler- nice to meet you too.

-The pleasure is mine. -answered Kanon slightly bowing.

After a short pause, Rudolf asked:

-Now that I think of it, why are you here? Usually the ones that come to greet us here is either Genji, Kumasawa or that new cook that our brother stole from some luxury hotel, Gohda, I think.

-They are all finishing all the preparations -answered Shannon, the young shy maid that was almost like a part of the family because her long service to the family despite her age.

-Ooh, so our older brother still hasn't done everything already? -said Eva with a mocking tone.

-Well that's because of some unexpected guests who will come soon, according to the weather report they will be here before the typhoon arrives -declared Kanon, as if to cover the Shannon's slip of the tongue.

-Unexpected guests? -inquired Rosa, the air surrounding the siblings started to feel tense because of that unexpected revelation.

-Well, that surprised us as well -explained Jessica- but it seems that they were invited by someone in the family, at the beginning we tried to tell them that they could come some other day, but apparently they had an invitation telling them to come to this conference which was within one of the envelopes that grandfather uses. After checking the invitation we realized that someone within the family should have invited them.

-Maybe we can dig in more into it after we arrive at the mansion. -proposed Hideyoshi

After everyone's approval the group started to move forward towards the mansion while Kanon and Shannon lead them. They went all the way up the stairs. At the top of them they saw Ushiromiya's personal garden, a beautiful rose garden that was a delight for everyone's eyes. All the outside family members were really delighted with the sight, some congratulated Kanon for his work ah he answered with humble answers. Some time later when the group had enough of the site, they headed towards the mansion.

When they entered the mansion they were greeted by Krauss and Natsuhi, along with grandfather's personal medic Dr.Nanjo and the rest of the servants: Genji, Kumasawa and Gohda.

-Oh my. -said Natsuhi- is this Battler? You have grown a lot. It feels like it was yesterday when you were only a child and look at you, you are now almost an adult. Time sure goes fast...

-Why don't we all go to the parlor so we can all talk there in a more comfortable way? -suggested Krauss.

All the family started heading towards the parlor, when they entered, Gohda announced.

-If you excuse us, Kumasawa and I are going to head towards the harbor to greet the new guests.

-Hmpf, fine -answered Krauss with an uncomfortable expression, it seemed that he liked that new guests as much as the rest of the family- Go greet them.

Then Gohda and Kumasawa started to head towards the harbor. Once they got there they saw a boat approaching, when the boat reached its destination, four people disembarked. After they landed the boat hurried to get out of there before the typhoon could affect its navigation.

-Welcome to Rokkenjima -Gohda greeted them, while giving a look at the mysterious guests, suddenly one of them made a step forward.

-Nice to meet you. -said the man- My name is Referee. Please could you tell me where is the family? I want to meet with them.

-Right now they are in the parlor -answered Gohda- I could guide you to them while Kumasawa stays here checking the harbor for the incoming typhoon.

The Referee then turned and asked to the other three guests:

-Do you want to join me and go to the parlor?

-------

Here begins the game, this round will work as a tutorial for the pieces' actions.

Now You do have two options:

A: Follow the Referee towards the parlor where everyone is.

B: Stay in the harbor with Kumasawa.

Regardless of your choice you will have three actions, you can use them however you want. The choice will only determine your starting point this round.

This round will last two days.

By suspects I mean everyone that can be culprit

>The culprit used all alcohol drink in Lobby to kill them. The culprit put it on their drinks and all of them died by overdose.
No alcohol was related to this murder.

They all died murdered, no suicides nor accidents
>One of those 6 people were one of the Culprits. S/He killed the other 4 people and other one killed him - making that person a Culprit - and them died by accident. Or S/He killed the other 5 people and commited suicide. Or S/He killed the other 5 people and died by accident.
The same as above
>They were all hit to death and died, but the fact that doesn't have any blood on the floor is because they were all hit in places that didn't provoke external bleeding. Also, the Culprit cover their wounds with their clothes.
>They were all stabbed to death and died, but the fact that doesn't have any blood on the floor is because the Culprit cleared their wounds and cover it with their clothes.
In those cases I would like to ask you.
Riddle 2: How did the last one die?

I want to propose you something now that we are even. Since some people commented on the issue, would you prefer to stop the metaworld, proceed with the investigation and then proceed with the metaworld.
You see, I created this game because I wanted people to have fun with it. If the people playing aren't enjoying it this game loses purpose. So feel free to call out anything that you aren't comfortable about.

Well then, are you okay with posponing the metaworld?

Also I apologize for my reckless use with the red. I just wanted it to sound fancy but it lost precision because of that.
Sorry for the inconveniences.

Ah, I see, so it wasn't a word play...

Hmm... either way (regarding the metaworld or human investigation first) works fine. It's just that the type of gameboard is determined by whether it's a blue battle or an investigation and theory making battle. Since we've already begun the blue and red, might as well continue...

Repeat in red! The victims are all merely victims. (that is to say, that none of them are accomplices, willing or not, as well as that they are not culprits)

I'm sure you'll get used to it, but most of us here are so precise in wording because we want to avoid being tricked by word plays.

Hmm... Some weapon was utilized, such as a gun or knife. A weapon, here, can be defined as any external item that could be utilized to inflict harm or death upon a person (which includes any externalities that may be included with a person's condition)

Externalities meaning like if a person had a pacemaker, a magnet could cause the pacemaker to fail and, thus, be considered a weapon.
>> No. 6034 edit
>>6033
Even if you determine that the culprit used a weapon it still doesn't solve how did the culprit kill them with that weapon.
And before further discussion let me remind you of Knox 4th: It is forbidden for unknown drugs or hard to understand scientific devices to be used.
So "advanced weapons" are prohibited.

I'll just assume that means there is in fact a weapon, since it is a necessary founding of my following blue.

The method of murder could be a ranged weapon that can strike despite the culprit not being in the room (like shooting someone through a window). This includes weapons not originally intended to be a projectile, but could be utilized as one given the proper circumstances (like being able to throw some kinds of knives, etc)
>> No. 6036 edit
>>6034
Whe I say "advanced weapons" I mean those which are hard to understand or surreal. Such as a rocket chainsaw, to put a silly example.
>> No. 6037 edit
>>6035
Well, even so I will say that Although it is possible to use a ranged weapon within the mansion, because of the trees between the guesthouse and the mansion no one could shoot them unless they were on the third floor, and because the position of the Guesthouse the only place where the guesthouse is visible is from Kinzo's room
However this twilight doesn't end here.

Riddle 3: In the case a ranged weapon was used, how did the culprit enter Kinzo's room.

And, before we start, let me say that.
Kinzo's room has an auto-lock in the door.
Once locked, it can only be opened with a key of Kinzo's room
There are only two keys of Kinzo's room
Both were at the parlor since Rosa's group left and they remained there untill Battler group left

I see you beat me to this theory, very well then.

>>6037
There have been many ways to enter Kinzo's study without a key. So if you don't mind I will bring out the shotgun.

Someone leaving the study held the door open for the culprit.

While someone was leaving the study the door was propped open so it didn't lock, someone could then enter at a later time.

When someone left the study, the culprit rushed over before the door closed and entered.

One of the windows was used to enter the study.

An entrance was removed or made and then put back to normal to allow entrance.

The culprit was already in the study when Rosa's group left regardless of if the keys were used.

>> No. 6040 edit
>>6038

You don't need to apologize about it. I just made an observation. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I am so sorry if I hurt you. I am having a great time with your game and I'll try to reach the end of it!

Now, returning to the game:
>In those cases I would like to ask you.
>Riddle 2: How did the last one die?

My two theories about stabbing and hit to death don't put one of six people as Culprit. In these two theories, a 7th person killed those 6 people.
However, if you put thisx 2nd riddle on the table, then this implies that there is a Culprit between those 6 people.

>>6043
Simple: The Culprit used a ladder.
The Culprit used a rope.


That's only what I can think for now. I don't if I have internet in my mother's home, but if it has, I'll try to connect soon as I can.

Exactly, so the theory works. If I need to explain more then I will do so.

At 20:00 the accomplice used a rope to pull the culprit up into the study. At the same time the accomplice left. Afterwards the accomplice took the rope with them and the culprit waited to get a good shot at the victims. The victims probably didn't even make it inside the guesthouse.

Okay. I'll let Ozaki take care of this 3rd Riddle. However, you didn't answer my blue about "______ to death". So, I'll repeat to you:

They were all hit to death and died, but the fact that doesn't have any blood on the floor is because they were all hit in places that didn't provoke external bleeding. Also, the Culprit cover their wounds with their clothes.

They were all stabbed to death and died, but the fact that doesn't have any blood on the floor is because the Culprit cleared their wounds and cover it with their clothes.


Aaaand, due to your red denying a Culprit between those 6, A 7th person killed them. Also, since I'm focused on 1st Riddle, I am not forced to tell how they were dragged outside the Guest house.

Since you denied, I can freely say that The wounds that prove they were dead are hiding under their clothes. And you repeated in red that "The Culprit didn't kill the 6 people by touching them (touching with a knife, fists, syringe, etc)", I can say this:

The Culprit killed them with a long-range attack!

As I can see, 1st Twillight is almost solved. As far as we know:
The Culprit probably killed the 6 people with a long-range attack inside Kinzo's Study. (>>6041, >>6070)
The wounds that prove the 6 people are dead are hiding under their clothes. (>>6070)

Now... If S/He killed them... How did S/He get into there?
It wasn't by gutters, nor rope, nor ladder, nor door.

The only thing I can think is:
The culprit get into "Waiting Room" or "One Ingot Room" and left by the window. Then, the culprit walked very carefully to Kinzo Room's window and get into there. (like those spy movie when a spy left by the window and walk until another one) This is different of "use the gutters", because gutters are on the roof.

However, if wasn't this...
The Culprit didn't necessary need to be in Kinzo's room to do a long-range attack. The Culprit is known by the 6 people, implying they could easily open Guest House door to him/her and the culprit killed them with:
Darts, stones, spear, another gun (you never said how many guns exist in Rokkenjima), glass (for example, throwing a bottle of alcohol drink), etc.


If you throw something at someone, this is considered as a long-range attack. If don't, then, please, give me or definition of "Long-range attack" and "Short-range attack".

Actually Eriko, if you take a look at the red, you'll notice BUL has never denied a rope being used. Just that it wasn't thrown, which is way too specific.

>>6071
Anyway BUL, I think I'm ready to go back onto the gameboard.

Unless you can deny certain parts of this theory: "The accomplice opened the window and then made it possible for the culprit to enter the study via rope. Later, the culprit used the rope to enter the study. This window was in the courtyard so it still counts as inside the mansion."

This is only one combination, the main parts in the theory are that the accomplice helped the culprit into the study one way or another. Additionally I can tweak it to fit other scenarios easily, such as the culprit could have brought the rope and used it themselves, or they could have been outside the mansion, just they did it all before rosa's group left the mansion.

[Resume game]
After Battler's group found the corpses of the guesthouse group, Rudolf told Kumasawa to explain the situation to the rest of the people. Kumasawa went and reunited everyone of the living members of the family outside the guesthouse, then she told the situation to the Referee, who went to call all the detectives and told them the situation.

The three detectives went to the guesthouse where they found the family. Most of the members had their faces red from sadness or anger. The Referee then said:
-It's a tragic event, all of them have died here, exposed to the thyphoon. It's really infuriating. I want to catch whoever did it and send it to jail.
-But we can't do anything!? -said Eva, crying- The bastard that killed my poor George is still free! Ooh George, why!? Why would anyone do such a thing to you!?
-Calm down, Eva -said Hideyoshi with a dark expression.
-Don't worry everyone, -said the Referee- the people that are here with me came here to try to gather some clues about the murder so we can know how it was done. They are detectives sent to this family conference, so they will try to investigate the crime scene, please give them all the information they need. I've heard that the one that joined us last, Rudolfo, is also a detective. However he is right now in the room in the mansion. I think he didn't felt well.
After everyone heard the Referee, they let the detectives do their job.
