Yes. Punisher is trying to get rid of his play so he can go on a date with Holman.

The Dangers of Equestrian Recreation

Desperate for any progress on their probing ventures, the Police finally come to visit the Lasarette Punisher, in which the City store patients recovering from brain trauma. One gentle soul, in particular, deemed a simpleton since his tragic fall off horseback a few years ago, is the subject of rumor regarding his literary interests.

Fully prepared to find nothing but coloring-books and crude scrawlings, the detectives instead uncover a strange, elaborate manuscript covered with a queer symbol matching those graffiti-effigies which has been accompanying the most violent outbursts since the Commune days!

After a long interview with the text’s supposed owner, it is concluded that he cannot have comprehended the manuscript even if he did read it – much less authored it. Someone else must have smuggled it into his care. Regardless, the manuscript is unceremoniously burned and the owner is released.



Punisher had 1 Copy of the Play destroyed!

Punisher is Sane.



It is Night.


Players:
1. Punisher
2. Unagi
3. Moliere (Murdered Art Student)
4. Newcastle
5. Holman
6. Scoop20906
7. Isgrimnur
8. Lassr


Art Student without the Play: Will you Steal, Seduce or do nothing?
Sane Art Student with the Play: Will you Read or Destroy the Play?
Insane Art Student with the Play: Who will receive a new Copy of the Play?

Muse: Will you Write someone or not?
Muse with at least two Lovers: Will you drive a Lover insane or not?

Alienist: Will you Analyze someone or not?

Hildred Castaigne: Will you Copy the Play to someone, Murder someone or do nothing?

Day 5

Violence is escalating as Paris decends into madness. Graffiti styling the Yellow Sign can be seen in every alley, and several Cabarets now feature Decadent themes – even the Palais Garnier is rehearsing an opera called “Cassilda” whose poster features a frightened young lady running from a demonic masked monk in yellow tatters.

Finally wising up to the reality of the outbreak, the mental health professionals of Paris has begun committing unruly citizens en masse – a whole crew of misfits from a dingy café on Rue Isgrimnur has been dragged away by the Police and committed to the Asylum.

In other news, a strange series of violent murders has plagued Rue Lassr. Victims are described as having their throats slit, the Sign drawn across floors and walls in their blood. Self-inflicted mass psychosis or occult murders? Does it even matter anymore?




Isgrimnur the Art Student has been Committed!

Lassr the Art Student has been Murdered!



It is Day.



One Sane Art Student remains!

Two Copies of the Play are currently in circulation!



Before the game can proceed into Night, a voting majority to Search a player’s home must be reached. Voting is done with the “accuse” tags.


Players:
1. Punisher
2. Unagi
3. Moliere (Murdered Art Student)
4. Newcastle
5. Holman
6. Scoop20906
7. Isgrimnur (Committed Art Student)
8. Lassr (Murdered Art Student)

Holman, I would like to propose that you, a lover of your choice (I think that would be Punisher as the one sane student), and I join up for victory.

We should lynch Scoop today.

That will protect Punisher from murder.
That will protect me from murder.

Tonight I will analyze Newcastle, the person who read their play last night - and have him commited.

Holman, what do you think?
Punisher, I assume you are Okay with this?

Ok, my tactical mistake may have cost me the game but now that all the cards are on the table let me be clear.
INSANITY IS YOUR FRIEND!!
The simplest thing to do is to read your play tonight and let me take care of the rest. Think of all the ART you are giving up to let some stodgy Alienist rule your world.

MY RULE WILL BENEVOLENT. I WONT TAKE YOUR PLAYS AWAY. I WON"T THROW YOU IN AN INSTITUTION. WE WILL HAVE TACO TUESDAY EVERY TUESDAY!! NO EXCEPTIONS. THERE WILL BE FRESH GUAC. OH AN VEGGIE TACOS!! THOSE ARE GOOD TERMS.

Fun FACT. I didn't have a copy of the play that day. People have stole it from me. THREE TIMES. Therefore, when Hagrid has no reading material he goes out at night.
