week 1

[stagemanagers]

[Well, all escape attempts have failed thus far. None of you have seen the Phantom since his brief appearance on Sunday, or heard from him at all. It looks like, for the time being, you’re all going to be stuck here.

You're free to continue exploring your surroundings to your hearts' content. The only real restriction on your movements is that the kitchen is closed between the hours of 10 pm and 7 am. Better make sure to grab any midnight snacks you may want ahead of time. Also, remember to label any investigation toplevels!

The Merchandise Booth is now open for business as well! The Phantom hasn't deigned to explain how it works, but...well, some of you will start to find mysterious coins in your rooms, and the Booth's got a place to put coins. You'll figure it out.

Should you wish to engage more with your host, you're welcome to drop letters in the box office slot. There's no set way to converse verbally with him, and he's certainly not guaranteed to respond if you just yell at the walls - but that doesn't necessarily mean he isn't listening. Just something to keep in mind.

Enjoy your first week, everyone.]

Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday

(( OOC: This will be the last mod post for this week! Feel free to start submitting regains for any threads that aren't with the Phantom. Remember, song threads mean an extra coin! This is a peace week, so get all that CR while you can! ))

[That'll be Room #19!

This room does not have a star on the door! You can see the light outline where one must have been, but it's certainly not there now. Inside, its furnishings look like all the other rooms.]

[Well! She's got to go through the regular routine first, though part of her wants to skip straight to prying open the mirror. Still, she checks all the drawers, under the bed, and in the bathroom once again. She's looking in particular at the sheets on the bed, to see if they're rumpled as well.]

[stagemanagers]

[The sheets here are perfectly made! There's no sign of use here.

Unlike in Room #5, a set of envelopes, wax, and monogrammed seal has been provided in the drawers. The letter on the seal is M. There seems to be nothing amiss in the bathroom, and nothing in the drawers that you wouldn't find in your own.]

[madgiganticfeelings]

[Huh. Does anyone here have an M name? McFife? That doesn't seem right. She takes the seal, though, and then approaches the mirror again. It's time to open another passageway! One of them has to go somewhere.]

[stagemanagers]

[Well, you've already opened up one mirror, so we can probably take it for granted that you're able to open this one.

This time the brick wall is much closer to the entrance.]

[madgiganticfeelings]

[Disappointed!

Is it still the same colour of bricks? Or was this one sealed up sooner?]

[stagemanagers]

[It looks exactly like the other wall! Weird, that.]

[madgiganticfeelings]

[Hm. Very suspicious.

But she's come this far, so it's time to do a sweep of the other vacant room as well!]

[stagemanagers]

[When you open the door to Room #20, something immediately jumps out at you! You struggle against the grasping arms...

...oh! It's an arm thing! It looks like it fell on you from an upper shelf - this has just been converted into a storage room, huh.]

[madgiganticfeelings]

[Christine immediately shrieks, first in fear, and then in utter delight when she sees what has attacked her. Whatever this is, it's amazing. And she's keeping it. It's tied around her shoulder as she starts picking through the rest of the stuff that's been shoved in here.

Hopefully there are even more exciting things!]
