Dinner Party Murder Mystery (NB Game)

CherryBomb50 · July 16, 2023, 5:26am

Obligatory warning: Please don’t play this game if you are not okay with its content. Contains murder and death…but you knew that, didn’t you? Not written graphically, don’t worry. Unless you knew that too? But what you don’t know is who did it. Good luck!

The Host: [name_f]Every[/name_f] dinner party needs a host. Gender and age are your choice and the host will have a classy name and career. Contrary to most murder mystery dinners, the host is not going to be the body killed off (it’s too cliché for Nameberry). The host is going to help solve the mystery and will not be the killer.

Before getting to the guests, please know I did a special game formula with some randomising so I don’t know who exactly will be the killer or the first dead before you start your game. It’s completely possible to play this game twice and have completely different results for that. So don’t be too upset by the outcome of what happens in your game, I didn’t plan your outcome to be a specific way.

The Guests (Open after making your host but before the game starts)

The Guests: For the guests, write them in a guest list but for now, do not add numbers, dashes, or other markings before the names. That will be arranged after the names are written. However, make sure you know who is who. Surnames are up to you. First, give the host three friends. Their names must be based from literature and/or be unisex. Whoever’s first name is last in alphabetical order secretly has a crush on the host. Whoever’s first name is first in alphabetical order secretly dislikes the host. Then give the host three siblings, two younger and one older. Their names must also be classy and/or be short. The sibling with the middle name first in alphabetical order is the loudest sibling. The sibling with the middle name last in alphabetical order is the quietest sibling. Next give three people from the host’s workplace. One of them is the boss and two are co-workers. Their names must be long and/or be European. The co-worker (not boss) who has the longer name also has a crush on the host, if they are the same length, go with longest middle. Now give three neighbours and make them all adults, but go diverse in terms of ages. Whoever’s age is in the middle, make them the most social. Their names must be popular on Nameberry and/or be timeless. Now give three other family members of the host, again make these adults with diverse ages. If any family members in this group have an odd-numbered age, make them very bold while even-numbered ages are very sensitive. Their names must be unusual GPs and/or be considered dated. Now after you have all 15 guests, shuffle their names in this List Randomiser. The random order will be the official numbered list for this game.

Also, one more detail before the game starts, if something says (Host) or a number in parentheses, replace that with the character’s name. But if it says, “the killer”, just leave it as is.

Start: 15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of (Host). Some have know the host longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Party Stuff! 🥳 Before the murder happens… 😓

[name_m]Roll[/name_m] an 6-sided dice thrice for party stuff. When an event has (D15), roll a 15-sided dice and replace that text with whoever you land on. Reroll if you happen to get the same guest.

(D15) finds a common ground with (D15).
(D15) tells other guests that (D15) is untrustworthy.
(D15), (D15), and (D15) are sitting next to each other at the dinner table and feel tension.
(D15) starts to sound really entitled and rubs others the wrong way.
(D15) confides and confesses something they noticed about (D15).
(D15) didn’t actually come here for the party and admits another reason why.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, (Number) was murdered!

Who is the unlucky victim?

Roll D4 to determine the unfortunate casualty.

Guest 7 dies.
Take your fave number between 1-10, multiply it by 3, and if your result is a 2-digit number, add the digits together until you get a 1-digit number, then that numbered guest dies.
Guest 14 dies.
Think of the first odd number between 1-16 that is not prime, then the guest with that number dies.

If you roll D15 during the rest of the game and get the victim’s number, just reroll since D15 won’t affect the deceased anymore. On each time it says (D15), it means roll for a different person on your list, not to use the same person every sentence.

Everyone has a shocked expression by (Victim)’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. (Guest 5) screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. (Guest 12) was the one who was seen talking to (Victim) last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. (Guest 2) insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. (D15) and (D15) spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. (D15) has a clean pocket knife, but (Victim) did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. (D15)’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. (D15) has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

What was found? (Not graphic)

Roll D6 twice.

The victim had a watch on during arrivals, but does not have one. Since no watch was found during purse/pocket checks, the watch was either hidden or bootlegged.
The last texts on the victim’s cell phone was an explosive text to (Guest 13) exclaiming not to attend the party.
(D15) and the victim both have the same tattoo.
The victim’s jacket was ripped.
The victim’s pockets are empty and the wallet is gone.
A slight amount of (Guest 1)’s DNA was on (Victim) but it was claimed to be just an accidental spit while talking to (Victim) earlier before dinner.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. (Guest 13) sweet-talks the cops. (Guest 5) insists on having little bond with (Victim) at any point before or during the party. (Guest 1) claims (Guest 8) has been alone with (Victim) many times and should be suspected. (Guest 8) admits it but also says that (Victim) never died during those one-on-one visits. (D15) claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but (D15) claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that (Host) knows. (Host) says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. (D15) tells the police some speculation about (D15), but the police only want true evidence. (Host) arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. (Guest 5) immensely questions this. (Guest 11) and (Guest 8) both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. (Guest 12) randomly insults (D15) in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. (Guest 1) angrily glares, (Guest 2) tries to ignore, and (Guest 10) insults (Guest 12) back. (Guest 15) laughs at the insult back while (Guest 4) simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Cross-Examinations

Roll D10 four times to determine the cross-exams.

The killer lies to the cops.
The killer lies to the cops, but remains calm and doesn’t make it look like lies.
(D15) insists on supporting (Victim) far too much to ever be a killer.
(Guest 1) insists again that it is (Guest 8) or someone who talked to (Guest 8) a lot at the party.
(Guest 15) breaks down crying, then apologises and can’t help it.
(Guest 12) states that the insult thing went too far and it was out of the blue rather than bad character.
(Guest 10) shows some personality.
(Guest 5) tells the police about nearly fainting after seeing (Victim) dead and doesn’t understand being a potential suspect in that.
(D15) keeps changing answer during one of the questions.
(Host) says that (D15) is starting to be creepy and won’t be invited back regardless of who did it.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

Who is the killer?

[name_m]Roll[/name_m] D4 to determine the killer. Got some minor math so use a Calculator if this will help you.

Take any whole number; double it, add 2, divide by 2, then subtract the whole number you originally picked. That number is the killer.
Take any homonym number of your choice (can be one/won, two/to/too, four/fore/for, or eight/ate) and divide by two (skip this part if you’re unable to do that). That number you end up with is the killer.
Take any even non-prime number between 1 and 15 and multiply that by 2. That product is the killer.
[name_m]Add[/name_m] 3 to any odd number except for 3 itself between 1-10. That sum is the killer.

What was the killer’s motive?

[name_m]Roll[/name_m] D10 to determine the motive.

The killer was betrayed when the victim told people something that the killer had intended to leave a secret.
The killer knew something horrible that the victim didn’t and killed the victim to spare that person from finding out.
The killer envied the victim for a super long time but murdered at the party because the killer knew other guests shared that envy.
The killer had committed another crime that the victim knew about and killed the victim to avoid prosecution for the other crime.
The killer was very wrath-driven and secretly had an incurable loathing for the victim.
The killer used to be close with the victim, but the victim stopped hanging out with the killer and hung out with other people. The killer knew those other people were attending the party as well and used this as a vengeful opportunity to kill the victim.
The killer was trying to get close with someone important, but that person preferred the victim.
The victim hated the killer a lot and never trusted the killer, so the killer killed the victim to save reputation.
The killer was in a heap of debt and the victim had recently won the lottery.
The killer was in love with someone the victim knew and was very close to, but was worried that the victim would get in the way and ruin this possible relationship from happening.

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

Most important question…DOES THE KILLER GET CAUGHT AND CAPTURED?

[name_m]Roll[/name_m] D10 to determine the result.

Yes - the cross-examination solidified this the most.
Yes - the other guests felt a bad vibe about the killer and after looking into it, police have found the necessary evidence to convict.
No, the killer successfully framed (D15), sending that suspect away instead.
No, the police don’t get enough evidence to convict anyone and the case runs cold.
No, the way (Victim)’s body was positioned gave off the false impression that the death was accidental and the police mistakenly rule the murder as an accident.
Yes - the killer gives up hiding it and confessed.
No, the police truly believed it was (Guest 5), who gets convicted instead.
Yes - the killer tried to escape but was caught by police and taken away.
Technically yes - the killer was caught but escaped and is on the run as a fugitive.
Technically yes - the killer was caught and tried to drive off, but crashed while speeding away and died.

And that’s a wrap! [name_m]Feel[/name_m] free to add details or other bits and extras to what you’ve got and I hope this was as interesting for you as it was for me to create.

Suddenly, [name_m]Aloysius[/name_m] notices something tragic. His youngest brother, [name_m]Piers[/name_m], is dead!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Piers’ demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_u]Auden[/name_u] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

A slight amount of Oaks’ DNA was found on [name_m]Piers[/name_m], but it was claimed to be just an accidental spit while talking to him before dinner. The last text messages on Piers’ phone included an explosive one to [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f], urging her not to attend the party.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f] sweet-talks the cops.

[name_u]Cross[/name_u] Examination:

[name_u]Auden[/name_u] tells the police about nearly fainting after seeing [name_m]Piers[/name_m] dead
[name_m]Aloysius[/name_m] says that his sister [name_f]Cornelia[/name_f] is starting to be creepy and will not be invited back
[name_m]Ramsay[/name_m] keeps changing his answers during one of the questions
[name_f]Meg[/name_f] states that the insult thing went too far, but it was simply out of the blue

The killer: [name_m]Oaks[/name_m] [name_u]Evergreen[/name_u] [name_m]Buckingham[/name_m]
His motive: He had committed another crime that [name_m]Piers[/name_m] was aware of, but had to kill [name_m]Piers[/name_m] in order to avoid prosecution

The cross-examination proves that he was the killer, and is taken into custody.

[name_f]Charlize[/name_f] [name_f]Daniela[/name_f] [name_u]Cross[/name_u]

Start: 15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_f]Loretta[/name_f] [name_u]Cross[/name_u]. Some have known the host longer than others, some are thick as blood… but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Party Stuff:

[name_m]Rupert[/name_m] finds a common ground with [name_f]Judy[/name_f].
[name_u]Austen[/name_u] finds a common ground with [name_m]Romeo[/name_m].
[name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] starts to sound really entitled and rubs others the wrong way.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, #9, was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Magdalena’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_u]Austen[/name_u] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] was the one who was seen talking to [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. [name_u]Seneca[/name_u] and [name_m]Johannes[/name_m] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Judy’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_m]Romeo[/name_m] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

What was found?

The victim had a watch on during arrivals, but does not have one. Since no watch was found during purse/pocket checks, the watch was either hidden or bootlegged.

The victim’s jacket was ripped.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_u]Seneca[/name_u] sweet-talks the cops. [name_u]Austen[/name_u] insists on having little bond with [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] at any point before or during the party. [name_u]Cecil[/name_u] claims [name_f]Livana[/name_f] has been alone with [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] many times and should be suspected. [name_f]Livana[/name_f] admits it but also says that [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_m]Romeo[/name_m] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_f]Loretta[/name_f] knows. [name_f]Loretta[/name_f] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] tells the police some speculation about [name_f]Lynette[/name_f], but the police only want true evidence. [name_f]Loretta[/name_f] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_u]Austen[/name_u] immensely questions this. [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f] and [name_f]Livana[/name_f] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] randomly insults [name_f]Charlize[/name_f] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_u]Cecil[/name_u] angrily glares, [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] tries to ignore, and [name_f]Judy[/name_f] insults [name_f]Felicity[/name_f] back. [name_f]Charlize[/name_f] laughs at the insult back while [name_f]Esperanza[/name_f] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Cross-examinations

[name_f]Loretta[/name_f] says that [name_u]Seneca[/name_u] is starting to be creepy and won’t be invited back regardless of who did it.
The killer lies to the cops, but remains calm and doesn’t make it look like lies.
[name_u]Austen[/name_u] tells the police about nearly fainting after seeing [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f] dead and doesn’t understand being a potential suspect in that.
The killer lies to the cops.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

Who is the killer?

The killer turned out to be [name_u]Cecil[/name_u].

He was very wrath-driven and secretly had an incurable loathing for the victim.

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

DOES THE KILLER GET CAUGHT AND CAPTURED?

No, the way Magdalena’s body was positioned gave off the false impression that the death was accidental and the police mistakenly rule the murder as an accident.

This was such a breathtaking experience. Thanks, [name_f]Miranda[/name_f]!

Start: 15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] Bellevue. Some have know the host longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Party Stuff:

[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] didn’t actually come here for the party, but rather admits she came to reveal her secret crush on [name_f]Lydia[/name_f]

Despite usually being quiet, [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] begins to sound really entitled to the other guests since he keeps bragging about being Lydia’s brother, which rubs everyone the wrong way

[name_u]Halley[/name_u] admits that she noticed [name_f]Gloria[/name_f] acting rather weird over by the drinks table, although she couldn’t quite tell what she was doing

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m], was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Alexandros’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_f]Agatha[/name_f] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_m]Nikhil[/name_m] was the one who was seen talking to [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. [name_m]Jason[/name_m] insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. [name_u]Halley[/name_u] and [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is so suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Gloria[/name_f] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Andrej’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

The police find that Alexandros’s jacket was ripped

The police find that the last text sent from Alexandros’s phone was an explosive text to [name_m]Vincent[/name_m], telling them not to attend the party

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_m]Vincent[/name_m] sweet-talks the cops. [name_f]Agatha[/name_f] insists on never having a little bond with [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m] at any point before or during the party. [name_m]Wilbur[/name_m] claims [name_f]Gloria[/name_f] has been alone with [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m] many times and should be suspected. [name_f]Gloria[/name_f] admits it but also says that [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_m]Jason[/name_m] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_u]Clarence[/name_u] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] knows. [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] tells the police some speculation about [name_m]Vincent[/name_m], but the police only want true evidence. [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_f]Agatha[/name_f] immensely questions this.

[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] laughs at the insult back while [name_u]Hayden[/name_u] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

The killer lies to the cops

[name_m]Nikhil[/name_m] states that the insult thing went too far, and it was out of the blue rather than being a sign of bad character

[name_m]Vincent[/name_m] can’t make up his mind during one of the questions, and keeps changing his answer

[name_f]Agatha[/name_f] tells the police she nearly fainted when she saw Alexandros’s body, and doesn’t understand how that can still leave her as a potential suspect

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] is the true killer of [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m]

[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] was in love with [name_f]Lydia[/name_f], but knew that, being both of their bosses, [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m] had a special relationship with her. She had seen them flirting a little bit at work, and was worried that [name_m]Alexandros[/name_m] would get in the way of her being with [name_f]Lydia[/name_f].

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

[name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] is caught. She gives up hiding it and confesses out of guilt, horrifying the other guests and most of all [name_f]Lydia[/name_f]. She is taken away by the cops while crying and screaming that her and [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] are meant to be, while everyone turns away from her in disgust.

Some have known him longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Party before the murder

[name_f]Vivienne[/name_f] finds a common ground with [name_m]Thiago[/name_m]
[name_f]Maeve[/name_f] tells other guests that [name_m]Silas[/name_m] is untrustworthy
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f], [name_m]Hugo[/name_m], and [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] are sitting next to each other at the dinner table and feel tension
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] starts to sound really entitled and rubs others the wrong way
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] confides and confesses something they noticed about [name_f]Amethyst[/name_f]
[name_f]Maude[/name_f] didn’t actually come here for the party and admits another reason why

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves…when suddenly, [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] notices a dead body. His brother, [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] [name_u]Windsor[/name_u], was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Maxwell’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_f]Emma[/name_f] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_m]Thiago[/name_m] was the one who was seen talking to [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later.

Harold’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around Maxwell’s body.

What was found?

-A slight amount of Amethyst’s DNA was on [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] but it was claimed to be just an accidental spit while talking to [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] earlier before dinner.
-Bennett and [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] have the same tattoo

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] sweet-talks the cops. [name_f]Emma[/name_f] insists on having little bond with [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] at any point before or during the party. [name_f]Amethyst[/name_f] claims [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] has been alone with [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] many times and should be suspected.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] tells the police some speculation about [name_f]Gabriella[/name_f], but the police only want true evidence.

[name_m]Harold[/name_m] laughs at the insult back while [name_u]Bennett[/name_u] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Cross-Examinations

-Alexander says that [name_f]Emma[/name_f] is starting to be creepy and won’t be invited back regardless of who did it
-The killer lies to the cops
-Amethyst insists again that it is [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] or someone who talked to [name_f]Catherine[/name_f] a lot at the party
-Catherine insists on supporting [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] far too much to ever be a killer

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be

Killer & motive

[name_f]Maude[/name_f] Lions, Maxwell’s aunt, had committed another crime that [name_u]Maxwell[/name_u] knew about and she killed him to avoid prosecution for the other crime

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

Outcome

[name_f]Maude[/name_f] was caught and tried to drive off, but crashed while speeding away and died

This was fun!

[name_u]Edward[/name_u] [name_u]Robert[/name_u] [name_m]Dodge[/name_m] (45) (Family [name_u]Doctor[/name_u], husband to [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_m]Dodge[/name_m], father of [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] [name_m]Dodge[/name_m] and [name_u]Dawson[/name_u] Dodge)

[name_u]Michael[/name_u] [name_m]Chang[/name_m] (40) (CEO of a home appliance company, boyfriend of Ms.Banks)

15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_f]Abigail[/name_f] [name_u]Banks[/name_u]. Some have known Ms. [name_u]Banks[/name_u] longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Ms.DuPont didn’t actually come here for the party and admits another reason why. She came because she suspects someone is after Ms.Bank’s new found wealth.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. True colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] [name_m]Osborne[/name_m] was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Ramona’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_u]Scout[/name_u] screams for a long time before being calmed down. Ms.Banks wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] was the one who was seen talking to [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. Mrs.Cruz insists on being allowed to leave the party but the Ms.Banks declines. [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] and Dr. [name_u]Edward[/name_u] [name_m]Dodge[/name_m] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. Mr.Chang has a clean pocket knife, but [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Ms.Carter’scell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. Mr.Cruz has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body. They discover [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] have the same tattoo

What could it mean?

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. Mr.Chang sweet-talks the cops. Mr.Cruz insists on having little bond with [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] at any point before or during the party. [name_f]Violet[/name_f] claims Ms.DuPont has been alone with [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] many times and should be suspected. Ms.DuPont admits it but also says that [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] never died during those one-on-one visits. Professor [name_m]Radcliffe[/name_m] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that Ms.Banks knows. Ms.Banks says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_u]Dawson[/name_u] tells the police some speculation about Ms. [name_m]Lancaster[/name_m], but the police only want true evidence. Ms. [name_u]Banks[/name_u] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_u]Scout[/name_u] immensely questions this. Dr. [name_f]Diana[/name_f] [name_m]Dodge[/name_m] and Ms.DuPont both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] randomly insults [name_f]Violet[/name_f] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_f]Violet[/name_f] angrily glares, Mrs.Cruz tries to ignore, and Dr. [name_u]Edward[/name_u] [name_m]Dodge[/name_m] insults [name_f]Daisy[/name_f] back. Mr.Chang laughs at the insult back while [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

1.Dr. [name_u]Edward[/name_u] [name_m]Dodge[/name_m] is very jumpy, he says he is worried about the killer…**
2. [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] insists on supporting [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] far too much to ever be a killer.
3. 1. The killer lies to the cops.
4. [name_f]Isabella[/name_f] keeps changing answer during one of the questions.

[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] was in a heap of debt and [name_f]Ramona[/name_f] had recently won the lottery.
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] is the killer
The cross-examination solidified the evidence.

Neighbor 2: [name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] [name_u]Finch[/name_u] (23, medical student)

Fifteen guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] Moran. Some have known her longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Event 1: [name_m]Malcolm[/name_m] Moran confides and confesses to his sister [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] that he noticed their Aunt [name_u]Julep[/name_u] [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] was more withdrawn than usual.
Event 2: [name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_u]Finch[/name_u] didn’t actually come here for the party and instead came to question [name_u]Scout[/name_u] [name_u]Darcy[/name_u] about her time with the [name_u]Peace[/name_u] Corp.
Event 3: [name_u]Maria[/name_u] Moran, [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] Agapova, and [name_u]Jude[/name_u] [name_m]Columbus[/name_m] are sitting next to each other at the dinner table and feel tension. [name_u]Maria[/name_u] doesn’t like how much time her sister [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] spends with [name_u]Scout[/name_u], while [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] feels that [name_u]Scout[/name_u] is a little too wild and from too poor a family to be invited to a party of her betters; [name_u]Jude[/name_u], on the other hand, is jealous of how far [name_u]Scout[/name_u] has come into society without having to lower herself to cheap tricks like influencer culture. The three of them have been glancing at her all throughout dinner and have caught each other doing the same.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colors about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] notices a dead body. A guest, [name_u]Scout[/name_u] [name_u]Morgan[/name_u] [name_u]Darcy[/name_u], was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Scout’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_m]Cash[/name_m] [name_m]Harker[/name_m] screams for a long time before being calmed down. [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_u]Hayden[/name_u] McKenzie was the one who was seen talking to [name_u]Scout[/name_u] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. Anastaisia insists on being allowed to leave the party but [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] declines. [name_f]Isla[/name_f] and [name_m]Malcolm[/name_m] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_u]Jude[/name_u] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_u]Scout[/name_u] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. [name_u]Max[/name_u] Moran’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_m]Malcolm[/name_m] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

Scout’s jacket was ripped. She had a watch on during arrival, but does not have one now. Since no watch was found during purse/pocket checks, the watch was either hidden or bootlegged.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_u]Max[/name_u] sweet-talks the cops. [name_m]Cash[/name_m] insists on having little bond with [name_u]Scout[/name_u] at any point before or during the party. [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] [name_m]Lucas[/name_m] claims [name_f]Lizzy[/name_f] Battenburg has been alone with [name_u]Scout[/name_u] many times and should be suspected. [name_f]Lizzy[/name_f] admits it but also says that [name_u]Scout[/name_u] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] [name_m]Smith[/name_m] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_f]Isla[/name_f] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] knows. [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_f]Anastasia[/name_f] tells the police some speculation about [name_u]Max[/name_u], but the police only want true evidence. [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_m]Cash[/name_m] immediately questions this. [name_u]Maria[/name_u] and [name_f]Lizzy[/name_f] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_u]Hayden[/name_u] randomly insults Aunt [name_u]Julep[/name_u] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_f]Cecily[/name_f] angrily glares, Anastaisa tries to ignore, and [name_u]Jude[/name_u] insults [name_u]Hayden[/name_u] back. [name_f]Isla[/name_f] laughs at the insult back while [name_u]Milo[/name_u] Moran simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Exam 1: [name_u]Hayden[/name_u] states that the insult thing went too far and it was out of the blue rather than bad character.
Exam 2: Aunt [name_u]Julep[/name_u] keeps changing answer during one of the questions.
Exam 3: [name_f]Isla[/name_f] breaks down crying, then apologizes and can’t help it.
Exam 4: The killer lies to the cops.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be. It is most definitely not [name_u]Joe[/name_u] di Napoli, who has been minding his own business and staying in his own lane this entire time.

[name_u]Jude[/name_u] [name_u]Royal[/name_u] [name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Columbus[/name_m] is the killer. He envied [name_u]Scout[/name_u] for a super long time but murdered her at the party because he knew other guests shared that envy. Especially [name_f]Lizzy[/name_f], who he knew also shared Scout’s crush on [name_f]Myrna[/name_f] and encouraged her to confront [name_u]Scout[/name_u] at the party about it.

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

Yes, they catch him! [name_u]Jude[/name_u] tried to escape but was caught by police and taken away.

[name_m]Alistair[/name_m] [name_u]Jude[/name_u] Wooldridge (29)

event O1: [name_m]Leonard[/name_m] didn’t actually come here for the party and admits another reason why.

event O2: [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] confides and confesses something they noticed about [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f].

event O3: [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] finds a common ground with [name_u]Arlo[/name_u].

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] [name_m]Maes[/name_m] was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Auguste’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_f]Sundae[/name_f] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] was the one who was seen talking to [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. [name_m]Darry[/name_m] and [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_u]Charlie[/name_u] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Sundae’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_f]Patience[/name_f] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

The police find a slight amount of Ryatt’s DNA was on [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] but it was claimed to be just an accidental spit while talking to [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] earlier before dinner.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_m]Darry[/name_m] sweet-talks the cops. Sundaeinsists on having little bond with [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] at any point before or during the party. [name_u]Ryatt[/name_u] claims Ottiliehas been alone with [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] many times and should be suspected. [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f] admits it but also says that [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_f]Chrysanthemum[/name_f] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_m]Darry[/name_m] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_m]Angus[/name_m] knows. [name_m]Angus[/name_m] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_u]Ryatt[/name_u] tells the police some speculation about [name_f]Chrysanthemum[/name_f], but the police only want true evidence. [name_m]Angus[/name_m] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_f]Sundae[/name_f] immensely questions this.Charlie and [name_f]Ottilie[/name_f] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] randomly insults [name_f]Maeve[/name_f] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_u]Ryatt[/name_u] angrily glares, [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] tries to ignore, and [name_f]Patience[/name_f] insults [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] back. [name_m]Alistair[/name_m] laughs at the insult back while [name_u]Arlo[/name_u] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

exam O1: The killer lies to the cops, but remains calm and doesn’t make it look like lies.

exam O2: [name_f]Patience[/name_f] insists on supporting [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] far too much to ever be a killer.

exam O3: [name_f]Sundae[/name_f] tells the police about nearly fainting after seeing [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] dead and doesn’t understand being a potential suspect in that.

exam O4: [name_m]Angus[/name_m] says that [name_u]Ryatt[/name_u] is starting to be creepy and won’t be invited back regardless of who did it.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

[name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] is the killer! [name_u]Auguste[/name_u] hated [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] a lot and never trusted him, so [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] killed the victim to save reputation.

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

Technically yes - [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] was caught and tried to drive off, but crashed while speeding away and died.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colors about their personalities show, but only slightly.

Some mingle while others distance themselves… when suddenly, [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] notices a dead body among the preceeding’s. A guest, [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Elisabeth’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. [name_f]Davina[/name_f] screams for a long time before being calmed down. [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] was the one who was seen talking to [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] last, but makes a case claiming the murderer is a silent murderer who murders first, talks later. [name_f]Rosella[/name_f] insists on being allowed to leave the party because she has an appointment scheduled but [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] declines. [name_f]Sara[/name_f] Pryce-Hamilton & [name_u]Ivy[/name_u] Goldstein spent the most time at the dinner table during the party & are the most trusted, but no one has an airtight alibi yet.

[name_f]Danielle[/name_f] asks every guest to open their purses & pockets & finds some stuff that is so suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] [name_u]Alcott[/name_u] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] showed no signs of being stabbed. [name_f]Emma[/name_f] Darcy’s cell phone contains no texts or emails within the week but she denies that anything was deleted. [name_u]Benjamin[/name_u] McIntyre has a suspiciously large amount of pocket money.

The police are called & they investigate for clues around the victim’s body. A slight amount of Clarissa’s DNA was on [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] but it was claimed to be just accidental spit from where she was talking to [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] before dinner. Also, [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Elisabeth’s jacket was ripped.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_m]Albert[/name_m] Pryce-Hamilton sweet-talks the police. [name_f]Davina[/name_f] insists on having little bond with [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] at any point before or during the party. [name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] claims that [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] had been alone with [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] Mayfield many times & should be suspected. [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] admits to that but also says that [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_m]Albert[/name_m] Pryce-Hamilton claims to have been staying at the dinner table the entire time but [name_f]Agatha[/name_f] [name_m]Pryce[/name_m] claims that that is a lie, making [name_m]Albert[/name_m] backtrack & say that it was most of the time & that [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] knows. [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] says “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take all of them into custody. The guests are pat down & after examining [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_m]Albert[/name_m] tells the police that he suspects that [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] is a con artist if not a murder, but the police only want true evidence. [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] arrives & notices that someone has hidden a piece of [name_f]Emily[/name_f] Elisabeth’s jacket in the bushes outside the house. [name_f]Davina[/name_f] immensely questions this. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] & [name_m]Jacob[/name_m] both say that this is ridiculous & a terrible cover up for the murderer. [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] randomly insults [name_u]Ivy[/name_u] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_f]Clarissa[/name_f] angrily glares, [name_f]Rosella[/name_f] tries to ignore her, & [name_f]Sara[/name_f] Pryce-Hamilton insults [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] back.

The police call a few guests up & cross-examine them. People spill very important details. [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] states that her insult on [name_u]Ivy[/name_u] Goldstein went too far & was out of the blue, rather than an example of bad character. [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] says that [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] is starting to be creepy & won’t be invited back regardless of who did it. [name_f]Davina[/name_f] tells the police about nearly fainting after seeing [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] dead & doesn’t understand being a potential suspect in that. The murderer lies to the police, but remains calm & doesn’t make it look like lies.

The police gather evidence & remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the murderer would have to be. The murderer turns out to be… [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] [name_u]Alcott[/name_u]. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] was indeed also a con artist & had gained PIN numbers from an ATM as her influencing was not going well & she didn’t want to give up the easy life. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] had murdered [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] because [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] had found out about her scamming & intended to report her. She intended to stab [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] but decided not to (hence the pocket knife) &, as previously stated is a con artist (hence the good lying). [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] is caught because of the other guests bad feelings about her (Albert & Clarissa’s speculations) & after searching into her, the police not only found enough evidence to convict her on the murder charges but, also, on multiple counts of fraud & forgery. &, thus, the case ends!

TL;DR: [name_f]Danielle[/name_f] Pryce-Hamilton hosts a dinner party. [name_f]Emily[/name_f] [name_f]Elisabeth[/name_f] [name_m]Thomas[/name_m] is murderer. Nobody likes [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] [name_u]Alcott[/name_u]. Oh look, they were right! Not only is [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] a murderess, she’s also a con artist. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] is caught & goes away to prison. The end!

15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] “Evie”. Some have know the host longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

[name_m]Dimitri[/name_m] didn’t come for the party, and admits another reason why.

[name_m]Fielder[/name_m] finds common ground with [name_u]Arden[/name_u].

[name_f]Lottie[/name_f] tells another guest that [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] is untrustworthy.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. True colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, [name_f]Elise[/name_f] was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Elise’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] was the one who was seen talking to [name_f]Elise[/name_f] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. [name_f]Carnation[/name_f] insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. [name_u]Kit[/name_u] and [name_m]Ben[/name_m] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Carnation[/name_f] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_f]Elise[/name_f] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Lottie’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_u]Tyler[/name_u] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

Elise’s jacket was found to be ripped.

[name_f]Elise[/name_f] and [name_f]Isla[/name_f] have the same tattoo.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_u]Kit[/name_u] sweet-talks the cops. [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] insists on having little bond with [name_f]Elise[/name_f] at any point before or during the party. [name_f]Isla[/name_f] claims [name_u]Tyler[/name_u] has been alone with [name_f]Elise[/name_f] many times and should be suspected. [name_u]Tyler[/name_u] admits it but also says that [name_f]Elise[/name_f] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_m]Silas[/name_m] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_f]Myrtle[/name_f] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_f]Evie[/name_f] knows. [name_f]Evie[/name_f] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_m]Ben[/name_m] tells the police some speculation about [name_f]Carnation[/name_f], but the police only want true evidence. [name_f]Evie[/name_f] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] immensely questions this. [name_f]Lottie[/name_f] and [name_u]Tyler[/name_u] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] randomly insults [name_m]Fielder[/name_m] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_f]Isla[/name_f] angrily glares, [name_f]Carnation[/name_f] tries to ignore, and [name_f]Myrtle[/name_f] insults [name_u]Teddy[/name_u] back. [name_m]Ben[/name_m] laughs at the insult back while [name_m]Silas[/name_m] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

[name_f]Isla[/name_f] insists again that it is [name_u]Tyler[/name_u] or someone who talked to [name_u]Tyler[/name_u] a lot at the party.

[name_f]Isla[/name_f] insists on supporting [name_f]Elise[/name_f] far too much to ever be a killer.

The killer lies to the cops, but remains calm and doesn’t make it look like lies.

[name_f]Myrtle[/name_f] shows some personality.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

The killer is [name_f]Carnation[/name_f]

[name_f]Carnation[/name_f] used to be close with [name_f]Elise[/name_f], but [name_f]Elise[/name_f] stopped hanging out with [name_f]Carnation[/name_f] and hung out with other people. [name_f]Carnation[/name_f] knew those other people were attending the party as well and used this as a vengeful opportunity to kill [name_f]Elise[/name_f].

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

Yes - the other guests felt a bad vibe about the killer and after looking into it, police have found the necessary evidence to convict.

[name_m]Rufus[/name_m] finds a common ground with [name_u]Charlie[/name_u].

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly.

Margaret’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_m]Barnaby[/name_m] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

What Was Found:

A slight amount of Felix’s DNA was on [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] but it was claimed to be just an accidental spit while talking to [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] earlier before dinner.
The victim had a watch on during arrivals, but does not have one. Since no watch was found during purse/pocket checks, the watch was either hidden or bootlegged.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_m]Rufus[/name_m] sweet-talks the cops. [name_m]Romeo[/name_m] insists on having little bond with [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] at any point before or during the party. [name_m]Felix[/name_m] claims [name_m]Theodore[/name_m] has been alone with [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] many times and should be suspected.

[name_m]Barnaby[/name_m] laughs at the insult back while [name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Cross-Examinations:

[name_f]Annika[/name_f] shows some personality.
[name_m]Barnaby[/name_m] states that the insult thing went too far and it was out of the blue rather than bad character.
[name_f]Dorothea[/name_f] insists on supporting [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] far too much to ever be a killer.
The killer lies to the cops.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

The Killer:
[name_m]Felix[/name_m] [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] [name_m]Jones[/name_m]

Motive:
[name_m]Felix[/name_m] knew something horrible that the [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] didn’t and killed [name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m] to spare him from finding out.

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery…

DOES THE KILLER GET CAUGHT AND CAPTURED?
Yes - the other guests felt a bad vibe about [name_m]Felix[/name_m] and after looking into it, police have found the necessary evidence to convict.

15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_u]Esme[/name_u]. Some have know the host longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Before the murder happens:

[name_u]Ollie[/name_u] admits didn’t actually come here for the party: he came to try and convince [name_u]Esme[/name_u] to come on a two-week trip with him to Australia.
[name_f]Sandrine[/name_f] finds a common ground with [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] – they both were in the same sorority, albeit at different schools and at different times!
[name_m]Rupert[/name_m] tells other guests that [name_u]Dominique[/name_u] is untrustworthy, but won’t say why.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, [name_u]Billy[/name_u] was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Billy’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] was the one who was seen talking to [name_u]Billy[/name_u] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. [name_u]Dominique[/name_u] insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. [name_m]Hans[/name_m] and [name_u]Carmen[/name_u] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Sandrine[/name_f] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_u]Billy[/name_u] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Magenta’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_f]Lizzie[/name_f] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body. They found that the victim’s jacket was ripped and that [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] and the victim both have the same tattoo.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_u]Michael[/name_u] sweet-talks the cops. [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] insists on having little bond with [name_u]Billy[/name_u] at any point before or during the party. [name_u]Carmen[/name_u] claims [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] has been alone with [name_u]Billy[/name_u] many times and should be suspected. [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] admits it but also says that [name_u]Billy[/name_u] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_f]Magenta[/name_f] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_u]Esme[/name_u] knows. [name_u]Esme[/name_u] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_f]Magenta[/name_f] tells the police some speculation about [name_f]Camilla[/name_f], but the police only want true evidence. [name_u]Esme[/name_u] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_u]Ollie[/name_u] immensely questions this. [name_f]Lizzie[/name_f] and [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] randomly insults [name_f]Sandrine[/name_f] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_u]Carmen[/name_u] angrily glares, [name_u]Dominique[/name_u] tries to ignore, and [name_u]Jude[/name_u] insults [name_f]Alexandria[/name_f] back. [name_f]Sandrine[/name_f] laughs at the insult back while [name_m]Geoff[/name_m] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details:

The killer lies to the cops, but remains calm and doesn’t make it look like lies.
[name_u]Carmen[/name_u] insists again that it is [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] or someone who talked to [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f] a lot at the party.
[name_f]Lizzie[/name_f] insists on supporting [name_u]Billy[/name_u] far too much to ever be a killer.
[name_f]Lizzie[/name_f] shows some personality.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

In truth, the killer is [name_u]Jude[/name_u]! [name_u]Jude[/name_u] killed [name_u]Billy[/name_u] because he has a secret crush on his wife, [name_f]Sandrine[/name_f], and of course [name_u]Billy[/name_u] was in the way.

But [name_u]Jude[/name_u] goes free! There wasn’t enough evidence to convict him, or anyone else, and the case runs cold …

[name_u]Waverly[/name_u] [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] [name_u]Astor[/name_u] (33, Jolie’s friend, secretly dislikes [name_f]Jolie[/name_f], author)

15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_f]Jolie[/name_f] [name_m]Montague[/name_m]. Some have know the host longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

Before the murder happens…

[name_u]Miles[/name_u] confides and confesses something they noticed about [name_f]Sabina[/name_f].
[name_u]Ellis[/name_u] starts to sound really entitled and rubs others the wrong way.
[name_f]Constance[/name_f] tells other guests that [name_f]Aura[/name_f] is untrustworthy.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_u]True[/name_u] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Ezra’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_f]Aura[/name_f] was the one who was seen talking to [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. [name_m]Cassian[/name_m] insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] and [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Atticus’ cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_m]Nikolai[/name_m] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.
The victim had a watch on during arrivals, but does not have one. Since no watch was found during purse/pocket checks, the watch was either hidden or bootlegged.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_f]Francesca[/name_f] sweet-talks the cops. [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] insists on having little bond with [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] at any point before or during the party. [name_m]Nikolai[/name_m] claims Contance has been alone with [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] many times and should be suspected. [name_f]Constance[/name_f] admits it but also says that [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_f]Sabina[/name_f] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_f]Jolie[/name_f] knows. [name_f]Jolie[/name_f] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_f]Tamsin[/name_f] tells the police some speculation about [name_m]Cassian[/name_m], but the police only want true evidence. [name_f]Jolie[/name_f] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_u]Ellis[/name_u] immensely questions this. [name_f]Lydia[/name_f] and [name_f]Constance[/name_f] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_f]Aura[/name_f] randomly insults [name_f]Elowen[/name_f] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_m]Nikolai[/name_m] angrily glares, [name_m]Cassian[/name_m] tries to ignore, and [name_f]Tamsin[/name_f] insults [name_f]Aura[/name_f] back. [name_u]Waverly[/name_u] laughs at the insult back while [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Cross-Examinations…

[name_f]Jolie[/name_f] says that [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] is starting to be creepy and won’t be invited back regardless of who did it.
The killer lies to the cops.
[name_f]Francesca[/name_f] keeps changing answer during one of the questions.
[name_f]Aura[/name_f] states that the insult thing went too far and it was out of the blue rather than bad character.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

The killer is [name_m]Atticus[/name_m]! He knew something horrible that [name_u]Ezra[/name_u] didn’t and killed the victim to spare that person from finding out.

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery… [name_m]Atticus[/name_m] doesn’t get caught. He successfully framed [name_u]Waverly[/name_u], sending her away instead.

Alyonka starts to sound really entitled and rubs others the wrong way. Yeah, I thought she’d be that way when I came up with her character LOL.

[name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] tells other guests that [name_f]Jo[/name_f] is untrustworthy. LISTEN TO THE FORMER INSURANCE INVESTIGATOR

[name_m]Anselm[/name_m], Aaroni, and [name_f]Hana[/name_f] are sitting next to each other at the dinner table and feel tension.

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_f]True[/name_f] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, Anzelhina notices a dead body. A guest, [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] [name_m]Everett[/name_m] [name_m]Welch[/name_m] was murdered! CYRUS NOOOO! I knew he was too powerful being a former insurance investigator LOL.

Everyone has a shocked expression by Cyrus’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_m]Ian[/name_m] screams for a long time before being calmed down. Anzelhina wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven not to be the same. [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] was the one who was seen talking to [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. Dr. Friexes insists on being allowed to leave the party, but the host declines. [name_m]Langston[/name_m] and [name_f]Minerva[/name_f] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

Anzelhina asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Hana[/name_f] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Aikaterini’s cell phone has no texts or emails within the week, but denies anything was deleted. Alyonka has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.

What Was Discovered?
– A slight amount of Ardalion’s DNA was on [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m], but it was claimed to be just an accidental spit while talking to [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] earlier before dinner.
– Cyrus’s pockets are empty and the wallet is gone.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_f]Minerva[/name_f] sweet-talks the cops. [name_m]Ian[/name_m] insists on having little bond with [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] at any point before or during the party. Ardalion claims [name_f]Jo[/name_f] has been alone with [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] many times and should be suspected.

Anzelhina says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] tells the police some speculation about Ardalion, but the police only want true evidence. Anzelhina arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_m]Ian[/name_m] immediately questions this. [name_f]Hana[/name_f] and [name_f]Jo[/name_f] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] randomly insults [name_f]Hana[/name_f] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. Ardalion angrily glares, Dr. Friexes tries to ignore, and [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f] insults [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] back. Anatoliy laughs at the insult while Aaroni simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Cross-Examinations
– [name_m]Anselm[/name_m] keeps changing answers during one of the questions.
– Ardalion insists again that it is [name_f]Jo[/name_f] or someone who talked to [name_f]Jo[/name_f] a lot at the party.
– Aaroni also keeps changing answers during one of the questions.
– [name_m]Ian[/name_m] tells the police about nearly fainting after seeing [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] dead, and doesn’t understand being a potential suspect in that.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

The killer is Dr. Ardalion [name_m]Melor[/name_m] Paramonov. His motive?
– Ardalion used to be close with the victim, since [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] lived in Wrexham for a few years before he met [name_f]Hana[/name_f], moved to [name_m]Oxford[/name_m], and met Anzelhina. Since Anzelhina was hosting this party, Ardalion knew that she would have to be attending the party and used this as a vengeful opportunity to kill [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m].

However, Ardalion successfully framed [name_f]Rhiannon[/name_f], HIS OWN DAUGHTER?!?!?! sending her away instead.

[name_f]Holy[/name_f] crap, this one was SO much fun! I was so entertained while I was writing this and getting the twists and turns to coincidentally line up.

My Story

15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of Adeline. Some have know the host longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.
Elizabeth, Mateo and Lavinia are sitting next to each other at the dinner table and feel tension.
Louisa finds common ground with Hermione.
Hugo starts to sound really entitled and rubs people up the wrong way.
The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. True colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. A guest, Elizabeth, was murdered!
Everyone has a shocked expression by Elizabeth’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. Caspian screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. Hermione was the one who was seen talking to Elizabeth last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. Adriana insists on being allowed to leave the party but Adeline declines. Kenneth and Louisa spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.
The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. Louisa has a clean pocket knife, but Elizabeth did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Kenneth’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. Mateo has a suspiciously large amount of money.
The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body.
Kenneth and the victim both have the same tattoo - Adeline’s name!
*A slight amount of Reginald’s DNA was on Elizabeth but it was claimed to be just an accidental spit while talking to Elizabeth earlier before dinner.
The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. Hugo sweet-talks the cops. Caspian insists on having little bond with Elizabeth at any point before or during the party. Reginald claims Felix has been alone with Elizabeth many times and should be suspected. Felix admits it but also says that Elizabeth never died during those one-on-one visits. Mateo claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but Ronald claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that Adeline knows. Adeline says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.
The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. Caspian tells the police some speculation about Ronald, but the police only want true evidence. Adeline arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. Lux immensely questions this and Lavinia and Felix both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. Hermione randomly insults Aurora in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. Reginald angrily glares, Adriana tries to ignore, and Mateo insults Hermione back. Kenneth laughs at the insult back while Lux simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.
Hermione states that the insult thing went too far and it was out of the blue rather than bad character.
Reginald insists again that it is Felix or someone who talked to Felix a lot at the party.
Kenneth keeps changing answer during one of the questions.
Caspian tells the police about nearly fainting after seeing Elizabeth dead and doesn’t understand being a potential suspect in that.
The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.
REGINALD IS THE KILLER!! Adeline’s own brother! After trying to frame Felix the entire night!
Elizabeth found out that Reginald was stealing from Adeline and threatened to tell her, so he killed her to cover it up.
Reginald gives up hiding it and confesses.

TL;DR: Adeline Darcy hosts a dinner party where her best friend Elizabeth (who is secretly in love with her) is murdered; the culprit is proven to be her quiet older brother Reginald, whose criminal past Elizabeth had discovered; after a night of trying to frame his younger brother Felix, Reginald’s guilty conscience catches up with him and he confesses, woop woop

15 guests are cordially invited to a classic dinner party at the manor of [name_f]Cece[/name_f] [name_m]Bancroft[/name_m]. Some have know the host longer than others, some are thick as blood…but little do these people know, there will definitely be blood indeed. Well, one person knows and that person is the killer.

During the party…

[name_f]Luna[/name_f] tells other guests that [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] is untrustworthy.
[name_m]Valentino[/name_m], [name_m]Sawyer[/name_m], and [name_m]Michael[/name_m] are sitting next to each other at the dinner table and feel tension.
[name_m]Henry[/name_m] didn’t actually come here for the party and admits another reason why: He has a crush on [name_f]Juliet[/name_f].

The guests are bonding with one another or just getting to know each other. [name_f]True[/name_f] colours about their personalities show, but only slightly. After the main dinner, some guests leave the table while others stay for more. Some mingle while others distance themselves… When suddenly, the host notices a dead body. [name_f]Luna[/name_f] was murdered!

Everyone has a shocked expression by Luna’s demise. People start to point fingers, accusing people. Some cry. [name_f]Saskia[/name_f] screams for a long time before being calmed down. The host wants to keep a watchful eye on everyone. This dinner party has proven to not be the same. [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] was the one who was seen talking to [name_f]Luna[/name_f] last, but makes a case claiming the killer is a silent killer who kills first, talks later. [name_m]August[/name_m] insists on being allowed to leave the party but the host declines. [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] and [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] spent the most time at the dinner table during the party and are the most trusted, but nobody has an airtight alibi yet.

The host asks every guest to open their purses and pockets and finds some stuff that is very suspicious that it’s scary. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] has a clean pocket knife, but [name_f]Luna[/name_f] did not show any direct signs of being stabbed. Arthur’s cell phone has no texts or e-mails within the week but denies anything was deleted. [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] has a suspiciously large amount of money.

The police are called and they investigate for clues around the victim’s body. They find out that [name_f]Monet[/name_f] and [name_f]Luna[/name_f] both have the same tattoo. Also, Luna’s jacket was ripped.

The police question each guest. The guests make their alibis. [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] sweet-talks the cops. [name_f]Saskia[/name_f] insists on having little bond with [name_f]Luna[/name_f] at any point before or during the party. [name_m]Valentino[/name_m] claims [name_m]Henry[/name_m] has been alone with [name_f]Luna[/name_f] many times and should be suspected. [name_m]Henry[/name_m] admits it but also says that [name_f]Luna[/name_f] never died during those one-on-one visits. [name_m]Sawyer[/name_m] claims to have been staying at the dinner table the whole time but [name_m]Michael[/name_m] claims that is a lie, making the former backtrack and say that it was most of the time and that [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] knows. [name_f]Cece[/name_f] says, “I know,” but doesn’t clear anyone.

The police take everyone into custody. The guests are pat down and after examining the victim again, the police find no fingerprints from any of the guests. [name_f]Mildred[/name_f] tells the police some speculation about [name_f]Juliet[/name_f], but the police only want true evidence. [name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] arrives and notices that someone had hidden items from the victim in the bushes outside the house. [name_f]Saskia[/name_f] immensely questions this. [name_f]Matilda[/name_f] and [name_m]Henry[/name_m] both say this is ridiculous and a terrible cover-up for the killer. [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] randomly insults [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] in an attempt to get people to agree, but it just rises tensions. [name_m]Valentino[/name_m] angrily glares, [name_m]August[/name_m] tries to ignore, and [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] insults [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] back. [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] laughs at the insult back while [name_m]Sawyer[/name_m] simply sits there. The police call a few guests up and cross-examine them. People spill very important details.

Cross-Examinations:

[name_f]Matilda[/name_f] keeps changing answer during one of the questions.
[name_f]Cecilia[/name_f] says that [name_m]Alexander[/name_m] is starting to be creepy and won’t be invited back regardless of who did it.
[name_m]Arthur[/name_m] breaks down crying, then apologises and can’t help it.
[name_m]Alexander[/name_m] states that the insult thing went too far and it was out of the blue rather than bad character.

The police gather evidence and remember everything from the cross-examinations on who the killer would have to be.

Who is the killer? [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f]

What was the killer’s motive? [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] was in love with Luna’s father, a very wealthy man whom she had known since childhood and whom he had recently met again, but was worried that [name_f]Luna[/name_f] would get in the way and ruin this possible relationship from happening.

Finally, the cops make the final decision regarding the murder mystery… The police arrest [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f], who does not resist and confesses to the crime.
