*** HMS Thanatus Brig ***

[Letum]

The brig is a small storage room full of sports equipment.
The door locks securely from the outside.

Those held here may only interact with each other.
They may not vote.
They can only use their special powers, including killing on other people in the brig only.

The leader can decide to put someone in the
brig to save them from being lynched. They will remain in
the brig until the leader tells me to release or kill them.
Players in the brig can only interact with other players in the
brig.
If the majority of survivors vote for a new leader in the day
there will be a mutiny against the current leader. If the
leader dies the survivors must vote for a new one.
Current brig members:

Baggygreen
Raptor1

baggygreen is thrown into the brig by a former leader (Raptor).

Do not talk here unless you are in the brig.

Unreal…

They’re all talking about taking the necessary steps to protect themselves from this alleged monster, and after seeing Roman’s arm, I must admit it appears not so alleged, but when I try and do the right thing by them they lock me up!

I wonder… I’d hear anybody who was coming… could I overpower them as they open the door… but then they won’t let me back out at all, and are just as likely to kill me… Perhaps I’m safer in here anyway.. I wish that I could speak to someone I trust about this discovery I made yesterday afternoon about the geology outside here.. It just isn’t natural!

But who to trust, who to ask to speak to…

Oh well, I guess I have plenty of time to try and decide who is trustworthy and who isn’t!

Sigh..

[baggygreen]

Was that a pinging outside?

Jeez, I hope those nitwits don't jigger up my sonar suite... especially not after i've calibrated it to get readings of the seafloor nearby! Speaking of which, what were those shapes... I wish i had my printouts with me!! there has to be some sort of natural explanation to those shapes! Where did i leave the printouts..... if only i could remember!

[baggygreen]

"In the navy, you can sail the seven seas
In the navy, you can catch giant crab-ese
In the navy, you can sit alone without a can
In the navy, get locked up by your fellow man...

hang on a sec - the brig is against the outside of the boat.. maybe I can tap out some morse for assistance? or a coffee... god i could use a coffee. I bet they've buggered up my sonar suite and they've burnt the beans. then I'll be cranky!

I hope Oberon and Tarjak are alright, I wonder if the fact I'm still alive means they think I wasn't a monster.. which can only mean more of them are dead. but if they're all okay, then they do think I'm the monster, and I'm not likely to be released.

So many possibilities.

:oI hope I'm not the last one left!!

Raptor1 is thrown into the brig by the leader (Jimbuna).

[baggygreen]

Oh hey there!

Am I glad to see you! What did you do Raptor, try and kill someone? Whats going on out there? How many are left? Did we kill all those monster things? have we gotten close to rescue yet?

so many questions! tell tell tell!

[Raptor1]

*wakes up from the 2-day long unconciousness*

Ah~!

*looks around and sees only Baggygreen around*

Oh...right...

*walks to the tap and drinks for a full minute*

I hope no more innocents died from Jimbuna's madness.

*throws the sonar print to Baggy*

Tell me what you know about this when the lights come on.

[baggygreen]

mate, I've been thinking about it, and I've been over every possibility I can think of. But there's only one... explanation for want of a better word!

Look at these images. Oh, wait, let me explain the imagery to you, acoustics weren't your strong point were they, begging your pardon!

*Baggy explains awway to Raptor how the images are made and what the shadows represent*

These here are is of the ocean floor, although the, well, structures are clearly not natural. The symmetry, the layout, sir it looks more to me like a city. No dir, i'm not crazy, though it has been a while since i've seen anything resembling space, or even a bunk..

Look at these sir, they're vast buildings and halls, thats the only explanation for it!!

HMS Thanatus lies on top of what looks like a great temple. If you think about it, it reminds you of the structures so many cultures have used to lay their dead in or make sacrifice upon...even human sacrifices. Now thats not unlikely as it sounds sir, theres an enormous sunken city off the west coast of Japan, theres Alexandria, there's the tale of the city of Atlantis.. Now the layout here sir, that is similar to something I've seen before... Oh yes! there's a pamphlet in my bunk for my planned holiday to Central America, the images are like that! Sure, one ancient city is much like another, but sir, there's no doubting the boat's on a revered or ritualistic site.

Perhaps the Thanatus is here just by chance, but that seems unlikely sir, given the explosions, the monsters...
Who would put the Thanatus on the top of an ancient subterranean alter?
Why would they? As an offering to these foul beasts on board the ship?
Sir, its been a long time since i've been outside this bloody room, you know more about whats going on outside, what do you reckon??

[Letum]

The survivors in the brig are left to die from
starvation after all the crew fall prey to the
monsters of the deep and each other.
