41 players remaining.

There are no clocks in your dorm room to help you mark the passing of time, but at a certain point, in the early hours of the morning, a cheerful chime tune plays over the loudspeaker. Whether you're awake or asleep, the door to your dorm room is now unlocked. You'll have about a forty five minutes, in which you can get ready or grab some breakfast, before the door that allows you into the park unlocks. By this time, you may or may not have noticed that one of your number is missing.

The chimes play again, to announce that the park is open, and the rides and music begin to come back to life as a voice plays over the loudspeaker.

"Looks like it's time to get started after all! To all our guests, have a magical morning! Dream big and have fun, but don't forget to look for the body! We'll see you in the afternoon at the Hall of Mirrors when it's time to vote, okay?"

You will have until 4 PM to explore the park and talk amongst yourselves. Somewhere in the park, you'll find the body of Malik Ishtar.

[Take your time getting ready in the morning, but eventually you won't have any choice but to look for a body. As you wander around the main entrance of the park, you're likely to see a figure laying out near the fence. The body is in bad shape, and though you can go over it to move it, don't linger too long - it's in the zone close enough to the fence that your bracelet will begin reacting like crazy.

You can look at the bracelet on the corpse - it flashes Malik's name and dorm mascot, but shows nothing else. The bracelet has gone tight around the wrist, almost as though it injected something into his body; you can see the veins standing out in his arm and the arm is swollen and inflamed. The body's face is pale and has a look of asphyxiation, but that's only what's left of the face. Because the most obvious cause of death is the wound in the chest - it's as if a small explosive embedded in there detonated, causing a bloody mess and taking the lower half of Malik's jaw with it.

Malik Ishtar is no longer among us.]

[ Well, after the thrilling morning report, Legion is taking note of the loudspeaker's message and starts to canvas the park to look for a body, if what was said was accurate. Which... clearly it is, since as soon as Legion approaches the entrance, the body is clear. It's careful to stay away far enough that its own bracelet doesn't start beeping, but Legion still observes from a small distance. ]

Records indicate that this is Malik Ishtar. Cause of death unclear.

[ because there are like four things going on ]

[ Clash halts to a stop, looking up at the scene and oh, there's one of those things in a robot suit announcing that this guy is dead. She stares wide-eyed at it. ]

That's— is that real?! It's gotta be some really good prosthetics, right?

Incorrect. Scans indicate that it is genuine.

[ a pause, then, ] Further examination is not advised due to the proximity of the bracelets.

But I mean... we don't really know until someone actually touches it or whatever. [ She implies that it's not going to be her, because gross. ] It could still be a part of the prank! You'd be surprised at how real those sort of things can look.
