The Midnight Game

[animusmods]

As the chosen residents approach the elevator, two retrieval units will be waiting to hand out a sheet of paper to each person. These sheets of paper contain the instructions for their game, as well as a number placing them in one of four groups. The groups will be called one by one into the elevator and, after a long ride down, will be released into an empty version of the Tower identical to the one they just left, with two differences: in place of the countless dormitory rooms are just enough rooms for each group member to occupy one, and each door is made of wood. Inside each room is a candle, a knife that will cut the skin of the person wielding it and nothing else, a blank piece of paper, a book of matches, and a container of salt. Once in their rooms, they are to begin The Midnight Game.

Midnight Game Instruction Sheet
1. Write your complete name on the piece of paper.
2. Use the knife to cut your skin and place at least one drop of blood on the paper, allowing it to soak in.
3. Turn off the lights in your room. This will turn off all the lights in the Tower.
4. Place the piece of paper on the floor in front of the door. Light your candle and plce it on top of the piece of paper.
5. Knock on the dor 22 times. Upon the twenty-second knock, it will be midnight.
6. Open the door, blow out the candle, and close the door.
7. Relight your candle.

You must now move around the Tower, keeping your candle with you at all times. Keep moving to avoid the Midnight Man. If your candle goes out, relight it immediately. If you cannot relight your candle, surround yourself with a circle of salt. If you are unsuccessful you will



Keep moving until 3:33AM. If you are not captured by the Midnight Man, you win the game. If your entire group fails, you will be punished.

[Actually getting herself to cut her finger took a bit of anxiety and willpower on Echidna's part; she wasn't exactly used to bloodshed beyond a full party wipe Call of Cthulhu style. For awhile she just stared at the knife, but eventually she decided it was best to get it over with. After that, she hurried along with the rest of the ritual, though making sure it was definitely twenty-two knocks. Messing up rituals was way too easy and also very very bad.

Once she finished, she creeped out, holding the teddy bear in one hand and the candle in her other, looking at the other members of the group (and taking a moment to be freaked out by the extra red-and-blue lights before she realized what it was.

Just had to keep moving then. Just keep moving, just keep moving...~!]
