( murder proposals )
 Part of the fun of playing in a murdergame is having a shot at crafting a murder. After all, who says factions should get to have all the fun? But in order to make this happen, we ask that you submit a quick murder proposal first. This is mostly for organizational purposes (partly to avoid our timeline being flooded with easily missed PPs), and so we can determine whether a murder can take place during any given week or not. Don't worry if you've never done it before. No proposal needs to be perfect before making it to this page, it just needs to have a proper backbone. We'll be shooting you a PP through plurk to give you the yay or nay, and help you iron out the details. In keeping with this, we would like to remind everyone that no character is infallible. Though we don't expect killers to be caught every single trial, there should always be a critical detail or mistake that will allow other players to solve the case... if they manage to put the pieces together. Murder proposals must be submitted to this page using the following form, inspired by ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png){kind=small} cradleproject's proposal system. All murder proposals must be submitted before Tuesday, 9:00 PM EST to be taken into consideration. We will contact you on Plurk to give our blessings/reschedule/finalize the murder before Thursday 12:00 PM EST. Character name: Your character's name. Contact: Your plurk account, preferably, so we can iron out the details. Suggested target: Who are you going to kill? We ask that you keep it to four victims maximum. Suggested executioners: Should your character be caught, select five (5) characters for the Executioner Vote. This is your chance to hurt your friends. Incentive: What are they asking for in return for murdering someone? This is where the Rewards/Motivations part of your application comes in. Murder plot: Give us the basic gist of how your character will carry out the kill. It doesn't have to be anything super duper detailed — just enough for us to have an idea of how viable your character's plan is, and if it can be done during the current week. Even something as simple as "they're going to shoot them in the face???" would work. Evidence/Clues: Again, there is no such thing as a perfect murder. While it shouldn't be obvious your character did it (unless you want it that way), it should still be possible for other players to figure it out by putting their critical thinking skills to use. You may suggests ways the victim could mess things up for the killer (by bruising them, for example) or items/weapons left behind. We suggest obscure, canon-specific clues be left aside. This is so the trials are fair. Or... fairish. Anything else?: If you have something you believe wasn't covered above, lay it on us here. ic rulebook | locations | statuses | room assignments private conversations | ic profiles | graveyard | full navigation |

Suggested target: Herself
Suggested executioners: ??? Does this still apply if she’s the culprit of her own murder.
Incentive: Was promised by Craftly that all future trials will state if the Ghost was used and that there would be evidence.
Murder plot: During the week, Omega will be wandering around trying to find the Ghost before Friday, though ultimately failing. Omega will wake up in the middle of the night in her room, 114, and creep outside of it, leaving her key. She’ll also leave behind her hair ribbons on top of her pillow. Andersen is allowed to see this if he wants to, but not be able to follow. She’ll go down to the lounge and ask for a drink. Regardless of whether she gets it or not, she’ll try to talk to Craftly before taking her set of Driver’s keys and gouging her own throat in a single blow, bleeding out wherever she drops.
Evidence/Clues:
- The gouge in her neck pierces neatly into her cartoid artery and rips out forward, as if someone had to be ripping the weapon outward instead of directly stabbing in or from behind.
- Her right arm is especially soaked with blood. It will have to be examined carefully, as it is a black glove and won't show more than it will feel bloodied.
- (perhaps) Andersen seeing her leave, no one else seeing anyone leaving. If the mun is cool with it!
- The weapon is her keys, so noticeably there are three separate rips in her throat, one for each key she fit between her finger. People can compare their room keys to the wounds for a similar match to confirm they belonged to the driver.
- She will have told at least one person that she is the driver, therefore they can piece together that her being the driver + her key-shaped wounds mean they were self inflicted.
- Her choker will be laying beside her, removed prior to her own murder.
Anything else?:
I just want to know, if she’s guilty of her own murder, will people be able to vote for her as the culprit, or will they be forced into executing someone else?

Suggested target: Tsurugi Kamiya
Suggested executioners: Dave, Dirge, L'Arachel, Vincent,
Kamui, SayaIncentive: Just tell him you'll bring his mom back to life. He's totally cool fighting a dude for that. Otherwise, he's definitely just looking through the profiles to see who seems like an interesting challenge... sorry man.
Murder plot: Honestly, he'd probably just drop in on him from the fucking roof and try to snap his neck. You're not a good enough opponent if you can't handle that, though he'd give him like... a second or two of warning like a good boy. If he lived that, Kamui would just... try to beat him to death... and if the fight is prolonged, he'd lose his shit and go nuts and not care about his own well-being LMAO. I AM 100% OKAY WITH EITHER. Honestly I'm cool with him failing in any aspect too!
Evidence/Clues: He has a freshly healed injury on his right hand that could become extra sensitive. If it goes on too long he'd just be... covered in blood anyway though... and probably wouldn't be in any mindset to actually defend himself. (He could also just go on brawling spree if you want, idk Night Terrors + Yato lust for fighting is sure a thing, but since this is a highly contained game atmosphere, I'll leave that up to you!)
Other evidence could include any marks left on him by the victim, if he puts up a fight! Or maybe a broken strand of red hair?
Anything else?: I want to use the Author role somehow but I am not... sure... I guess he could write something out in his room beforehand, but I'm still thinking on this. THIS IS MY FIRST MURDER ATTEMPT IN ANY GAME EVER SO PLS BE GENTLE WITH ME!!

Suggested target: L’arachel, Apollo Justice
Suggested executioners: Yukina, Andersen, Chiaki, Knoll, Kaiba
Incentive: Makai Whistle, his pet Murugu
Murder plot:
-Use the non-sharp side of the axe’s head to disorient one victim with blunt force trauma and once they’re winded, crush their windpipe with the wooden handle.
-Incapacitate the second somehow depending on how they arrive on the scene as well???
-Use his axe to destroy a piece of furniture.
-Using the wooden stakes from the furniture, but set it up to appear as if the two fought each other (making any wounds that appear more obviously axe-like to be obscured) as if one was killed during the fight and the other bled out from their wounds before they could make it back to the hotel and get help.
-Impale L’arachel to a wall with one wooden stake and hide the other, but leave splinters in Apollo’s hand.
-If there are any axes that can be stolen from an area in the setting, bury it somewhere by where the furniture was broken to try and make it seem like someone is covering up framing the woodsman (cause why would he use an axe that wasn’t his own?)
-Drag Apollo’s body so it looks as if he tried to drag himself away from the scene before collapsing.
Evidence/Clues:
-“justice” written in blood by L’arachel on the wall, her finger coated in her own blood.
-Buried (visible) Axe (if possible)
-Broken furniture
-Some dirt unnoticed underneath Suzaku’s fingernails
-Possible scratches around his ankles or wrists?
-Something generally fishy about the apparent cause of death/the crushed damaged neck on top of stab wounds from the wooden stakes.
-If Apollo is being framed as having been the one to impale L’arachel, how was he able to apply that much force (especially if her feet aren’t touching the ground, so it looks like she was lifted up and deliberately placed that way instead of having been rammed into the wall by brute force/out of a defensive attack.
-Blood flaking on the inside of Suzaku’s bracelets where he didn’t think to scrub.
-There could be strands of Suzaku’s hair stuck on Apollo’s body
Anything else?: Just let...him murder…??? :(

Suggested target: TBD for number 1, number 2 is Hajime!
Suggested executioners: Percival, Velvet, Akira, Akane, Andersen
Incentive:
1) Craftly info :)
2) Blackmail him with the thought of his brother being put in a future version of this game if they fuck it up :') (if the second murder is requested of him) / He can just ask to protect his brother FROM PARTICIPATING IN THIS BULLSHIT IN THE FUTURE >:(
Murder plot: He's going after them with a very sharp knife. One, then the other. Hajime gets the nicer kill if he can have it that way, but the other person... They're going to get sliced up.
Evidence/Clues:
- The request note to Craftly with his name omitted, but the week it was submitted added. The handwriting will match Nagasone's, but another part to it was that he was going blind, so it's written oddly (spacing)
- Carving knife that was roughly cleaned up and left in the kitchen
- Bloody kitchen towel
- He's going to move the bodies, so being able to lift them is probably a clue?
- Drops of blood on the ground from moving those bodies
- Injuries from self defense are okay if they happen
Anything else?: Hit me up if you need anything else!

Suggested target: Light Yagami & Nagasone Kotetsu
Suggested executioners: Jay, Kaito, Akira, Hajime, Andersen
Incentive: Craftly letting her be the one to make the deal at the end and not Jay or Kaito. >T
Murder plot: She's going to ask the Prophets for a weapon, and is going to get a chainsaw for Full Extra. From there she's gonna call Light out for an "emergency meeting" and dismember him, hide his body parts around the motel, and will be asking Tsurugi to mirror-travel into Akane and Nagasone's room to open the door for her so that she can take the chainsaw to him while he's in bed.
And then she's leaving the chainsaw behind to implicate Akane. I'm sorry.
Evidence/Clues:
- Saw marks on the ground - may indicate someone with a slighter build was carrying it because they didn't have the strength to keep it upright.
- Chainsaw left in Akane's room - did Akane do it? Did someone with access to her key do it? It Is A Mystery.
- Bloody footprints - Yukina's foot is tiny so it'll be further proof that it is indeed someone on the smaller side doing this
- More bloody footprints - she's going to try to make it look like someone with Light's shoe size was involved by dipping his feet in blood once they're... off... and trying to lay footprints out leading to Percival's room. This would cause little blood droplets to fall from the lifting so it wouldn't look quite right when they're laid out though. Feet will then be dumped into the laundry room or something.
I'm not leaving hair behind because Yukina's hair color is distinctive and that's way too obvious, I'm sorry.
Anything else?: i have a lot of murder ideas but i don't know how to make them all work. weeps.
HEY MODS FYI WE DECIDED TO CHANGE THE VICTIM!!!
Contact: rogueclass @ plurk
Suggested target: Akira Kurusu
Suggested executioners: Yukina, Percival, Andersen, Jay, Quer
Incentive: NADA. He's doing this save dead people obviously?? But if he could ask for something, I guess he'd ask that if he's one of the final three and he is the one who takes the deal of eternal servitude to revive the dead, then he wants to send a letter home to Aoko.
Murder plot: He'd borrow the handgun either Tsurugi or Girge used for their murders! Then he'd make a digitalis poison from the foxglove plants in the garden (by drying them out and crumbling them up) and ask Akira to the lounge, ordering them coffee/tea/SOMETHING and hoping that the taste of the plant is masked by the drink. He'd wait until Akira is passed out, but not dead (to avoid the gunshot wound being pegged as post-mortem), prop him up against the wall and shoot him in the forehead executioner's style. He'd then use Akira's blood to draw Mira's ghost symbol on the wall above him to try and make it seem like it's a Prophet kill, and they're calling out the Hunters! He'd then deposit the handgun into the secret evidence closet the prophets use, and clean up the coffee cups + coffee maker to try and mask the use of foxglove in his kill. He'd also be wearing Kaiba's coat during the murder to catch any blood and would leave that behind as well, to kind of try and hint that the same person who killed Kaiba killed Akira.
Evidence/Clues: Evidence of him having cleaned the glass Akira drank out of at the Hunting Lodge bathroom (again, he'd try to mask the use of poison in this kill), some foxglove flowers being picked from the garden (OBVIOUSLY), a gunshot residue test would light up on his hands, grains of sugar/maybe a drop of cream for coffee left on the lounge table (he has a sweet tooth, those who have seen him drink a lot of chocolate milk would have noticed that there'd be no way he could have drank his coffee black).
Anything else?: I'VE NEVER DONE A MURDER PROPOSAL BEFORE so yells into hands, I have no idea if this is sufficient enough??? I'm not really sure what sort of evidence could subtly point to Kaito tbh (except, like, who else knows how to make digitalis from foxglove plants to poison someone) SO I'M OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS and also open planning things out with Akira and changing anything about the above proposal to make it work!

Suggested target: saya
Suggested executioners: tsurugi, yukina, dirk, percival
Incentive: the legacy be protected forever and ever because he will be spending eternity in murderville :/ so he can't watch over his home :/
Murder plot: tsurugi is gonna sneak jay into saya's room. preferably while she's asleep?? like his plan is to suffocate her with a pillow and then he's going to mix up bleach/ammonia/any other cleaning supply he stole from all those weeks ago and inject it into saya's blood stream via syringe (that he also stole weeks ago). APPARENTLY SMOTHERING PPL WITH PILLOWS IS HARD TO DETECT FOR MURDER so he's hoping ppl are gonna think it was the other thing that killed her. anyway, jay is gonna exit through the door and with his knife that he.... also stole... (why did i make him steal so much) he's going to make scratches on the doorknob to fake a break in through the door. he'll be wearing the gloves he. also fucking stole I'M SORRY HE WAS SO PREPARED but the gloves are more for the chemicals than anything.
Evidence/Clues: HE LEAVES A STRAND OF HAIR no that's a joke. bleach falls onto his sock so if he is forced to take off his shoes there would be a white spot?? idk help me out here kyuunobi what else can i do. maybe he drops the needle of the syringe on the stairs when returning to his room so ppl know the person passed by the stairs??
Anything else?: honestly if saya is awake or something when he gets in or wakes up he would probably attempt to explain what's going on to her since he'd... want the gy what's going on, if possible. and he'd want her to know why she has to die ): I'M VERY FLEXIBLE WITH THIS.
not for this week, but
Contact:
Suggested target: Jay & Kaito
Suggested executioners: idek who will be alive at this point
Incentive: all she wants is to make it so that neither of them can be the last hunter standing and make the deal. so.
Murder plot: she's gonna kill the other two hunters once their numbers get more whittled down if they haven't been executed for other murders because if they're going to argue about who gets to sign their soul away for eternity she will make DAMN SURE she's the winner
Evidence/Clues: i'll. come up with this later.
Anything else?: i s2g if styx or francy beat me to this i will cry

Suggested target: Light Yagami
Suggested executioners: Kaito, Andersen, Hajime, Akira, Heather
Incentive: Stopping Radical-6
Murder plot: So even though Akane has been planning to do a hit anyway, I kind of want this murder to be totally unplanned. She's driven to a homicidal rage by the night terror and goes after the person she deems most suspicious, with little regard to whether it's a good idea or not. She's got the cleaver Nagasone has been keeping in their room and she will go for the throat with it.
Evidence/Clues: Since the murder will be spontaneous and sloppily executed, I'm cool with leaving behind a ton of evidence. Maybe there could be a struggle that leaves bruises on her, maybe bloody footprints or strands of hair? She'll have enough presence of mind to bring the cleaver back to room 119, though.
Anything else?: I have no idea how to actually do a murder plot so any ideas from you guys are super welcome! o/
