Bocelli Lane; a T-shaped turn-off from the main road. On one side is unit upon unit of apartments; both new and rundown. On the other side of the street are businesses, both small/local and large/chain. The street goes on for a few blocks before ending at a cul-de-sac, which hosts a large, mansion-like estate. No one inhabits this estate except for on holidays. Whoever owned the estate hasn't come back for quite some time now.

It's August.

The decorative trees are changing color to match the barely-watered grass patches. The buildings are looking as dull as ever. There is a distinctive chill in the night air.

This is when the bodies start appearing.

Every Tuesday morning they would be found in their apartments with the doors and windows locked. Dead. Made to look like accidents and suicides to the untrained eye; however, the killer always left behind a signature. The same page ripped out of an unknown book, with the words "This one is unworthy" underlined. The page would be hidden in the victim's trash.

This is where you come in.

You live in the apartments on Bocelli Lane. You work for one of the businesses across the street. You know there is a murderer among you. But what you don't know?

You're next.

Rules:

• Make two characters: one that will be a victim, and the other to continue to RP once your first character is killed.
• Ask to join.
• Ask if you want to play a certain role (certain victim #, the detective(s), a witness for later, and/or the killer's helper, etc).
• Wait for me to approve you and your characters before you begin to RP.
• You must be okay with your character dying/being killed at some point.
• Let's keep this PG-14 (you may allude to characters doing the do but don't actually RP it out here)
• Stay on track.
• After enough evidence is found after several more murders, you can then have your characters figure out there murderer and apprehend them and their helper.
• I will have one of my characters be the killer.
• If you ask for an important role, I expect you to be active enough to carry it out. So if you aren't active for three days then I will have to give someone else the important role.
• Please tell me if you know you're not going to be on for a while or if you decide to drop out of this RP.
• No Mary-Sues or Gary-Stus
• No Railroading
• Swearing allowed.
• LGBTQ+/SAGA allowed.
• Shipping allowed.
• No hate outside of RP-ing.
• Make sure to obey @andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)'s rules as well.

(yes you may. if you're gonna use the same character then maybe hold off on becoming a victim until later? unless you have a better plan for that, which I would love to hear.)

@Vuclan-is-tired

Well, I'm thinking that perhaps that he could start as a victim, but then when the killer comes to him and he actually puts up a fight against the killer. When he's at gunpoint or something he offers to help. (He's somewhat of a sociopath plus he loves seeing people in pain) and yeah…//

(May I? And also can my victim be a witness and leave some sort of clue before they were killed?)

@RedTheLoveless

(Ooh. That sounds pretty good. He makes himself useful to the killer (which I realize I still need to post his character) which saves him from being a victim. Nice. I like it.

And yes Midnight you may.)
