Day 4.
You're shaken awake by a hand next to you. You look around as beams of light head through the trees, the body of
GTS in plain sight. It seems you weren't the only one that decided to stay in Tiananmen Square--all of the other users stayed close together, afraid of the strange power that had ended poor
Yoshimitsu's life.
The first thing you notice is
imperfectluck, at the far end of the plaza. Looking disheveled and quite scared, it seems he's returned to the main group--with no intention of telling anyone more of where he's been.
Surveying the area, someone brings to your attention some
footprints leading off the square. In a large group, you all trace the steps to a clearing, where the trees are all broken, craters in the ground, and someone's
body, lying still amidst the carnage.
"You guys missed the whole show--it was fantastic. Not too long ago, either."
You recognize the voice as Loki, who has been hovering above a tree, sunbathing with his friend Gabriel.
"We thought you'd never make it. It wa-
"IT WAS
AWESOME!" interrupted Loki. "I couldn't quite see what was going on, but that sad fucker got tossed around like beach ball. Flattened out like one too."
As you move closer, you see the corpse, armor clad, with a fracture to the skull, blood and bits of brain exuding from his head. With a crest like a flower, and a katana at his side, through murmurs in the crowd you hear the name '
Outlaw Gryphon'.

Attention Outlaw Gryphon,
You are Samanosuke Akechi
You are allied with the Boy Scouts.
You have the Oni Gauntlet.
Once an honorable Samurai of the Saito Clan, due to infighting and corruption in the ranks of the feudal lords you serve, you've left to travel the world, becoming a ronin.
After receiving a distress call from the beautiful Princess Yuki, you were attacked by demons. You fought as well as you had been trained--but an Oni, or a demonic giant, overpowered you, leading to your death.
You were then resurrected as the Chosen warrior for the ancient Ogre Clan, given their souls and combined power in the form of the Oni Gauntlet. Since, you have traveled the world, using the gauntlet to put an end to evil.
Using the gauntlet, during the night, you can send either Doomsday or I a message saying "Night X--Absorbing X". On the morning of the next day, you will randomly absorb the ability of one of the players who dies.
You may do this 3 times during the game--assuming you still have possession of the Gauntlet.
You win if the boy scouts win.
The
Oni Gauntlet at his side, breaks in two, releasing energies into the morning air. It is
broken.
A voice raises. "Hey, this body was dragged here, wasnt it? And we all stayed in the same place last night, so shouldn't someone have seen who did it?"
"Yeah, that makes sense." says another.
"I saw it." All eyes turn to
Andenken as he walks toward the head of the group. "I know who did it--who dragged him off into the dark and bashed his skull in. It was him, over there! His name is---
UGH!'
At that moment, the focus is shifted to
Andenken's hand--it's melting! As he screams in terror, you see the affliction spread to the rest of his metallic form, eating through his hull. He shifts from a number of forms, contorting in agony, until he is no more but a puddle of oil and acid on the ground.

Attention Andenken,
You are Optimus Prime.
You are allied with the Boy Scouts.
Optimus Prime. Leader of the Autobots, from the planet Cybertron. You've led your team of transforming robots to Earth to find the All-Spark, before Megatron does.
During the battles ahead, you've decided to put your abilities to good use, copying the build of an 18-Wheeler for protection--for your friends, and from your enemies.
During the night, you can PM either me or Doomsday with the message, "Night X--loading user." That user will take refuge inside your large metal hull and be protected from fighting for the night until it becomes safe in the morning.
You also have another ability. If you become inspected, you will transform to take the form of Wall-E, a neutral villager type role. This will allow you to infiltrate and deceive your enemies for your personal gain.
Transform, and Roll out.
You win if the Boy Scouts win.
The acid continues to burn into the soil, leaving the imprinted phrase, "
WHY. SO. SERIOUS?" upon the hillside. It seems that
Andenken was a recipient of a
Joker's Card.
Dutifully, the remaining members of the crowd line up in front of Loki and Gabriel's position, ready to cast their vote for the day's lynch.
DAY 4 IS NOW STARTED. IT WILL LAST 48 HOURS, OR UNTIL A MAJORITY IS REACHED. 15 BOLD VOTES ARE NEEDED FOR A MAJORITY. NIGHT 4 PM'S WILL GO OUT NOW, I WILL POST WHEN ALL THE PM'S HAVE BEEN SENT.
