act 3 pre-show mingle!

[stagemanagers]

Greetings, friends, and welcome to the third and final act of It's Curtains! We hope you're all as excited as we are! The school is prepped and ready for your arrival and we are eager as anything to get started. The show will be starting soon (May 30th) with a mingle log but before the curtain goes up, let's get to know each other a little better.

You can use this post to introduce yourselves, exchange contact info, start plotting, the usual shenaniganry. Feel free to provide your contact information (plurk, discord, ect) and don't forget to follow the stagemanagers- it'll make things easier when your time comes. The discord is, of course, completely optional and any important information posted there will also be posted on the mod plurk.

Since we have some new faces to murdergames themselves, here's a quick rundown of how this weekend will go down: on Sunday (5/30) the opening log will go up and everyone will have several hours to mingle and explore and thread. At around 5 pm or 6 pm EST a top level will go up to introduce your assistant director, who will be effectively in charge of the students. She'll hold a short q&a and then, upon her exit, her office hours will open. The following Monday the weekly log will go up and Peace Week will commence, meaning there will not be a case or a motive until Week 2.

Welcome to the game, everyone. Let's have fun!

The Balladeer | Assassins but also Here | Lu

[tellthestory]

Hello, everyone! I'm Lu, one of the mods here and also your Wonderful Wizard for this round! But that all comes later - my PC for this round is the Balladeer! He's the narrator figure from Stephen Sondheim's Assassins, a chill guy who is friendly and very anti-murder, and also the face NPC from the first round of Curtains! He doesn't fully remember the latter happening yet, but he will! His presence here is totally fine and normal, guys, it's cool. I'm sure it'll be fine! =)

I should say for the record that the Balladeer also leans heavily into the fourth-wall stuff that this game has going on as a whole. Please let me know if you don't want him picking up some basic facts about and/or maybe recognizing some of your characters! Being himself, he's never going to just spill anyone's full narrative to them immediately, but he might point out that, hypothetically, someone here's just got the Dies Irae as their theme and that seems a little ominous.

You can reach me at lluosogrwydd or in the game chat! Really looking forward to this round =)

Are you ready to dramatically narrate Angus' life, Balladeer?

[tellthestory]

He will be absolutely delighted to do that if Angus will let him!
