You have woken up in one of the rooms in a strange hotel you do not recognize. You look around to see a note pinned to your door. It gives you clear instructions of the role you must play in “Monsieur’s” game before you will be allowed to leave. The hotel is full of traps and there is a killer who is a puppet of Monsieur’s bidding. Can you get out alive?
Rules: You are your own character, and I will tell you your role. Your role can be hidden at the start, but you would be wise to reveal eventually so you have a better chance of surviving. You can’t know what is going on in a location far away from your own, or even outside of a room unless you are actively eavesdropping. You can say what your action is, and I will approve or disapprove (so no one is OP). Announce the room you are entering so I can tell you what’s in it/trigger events. Most roles have use per round (each round is 3 moves per player.)

Inspect the room.
(I hope I'm doing this right.)

Switching to Crab Nicholson mode.
I smash into the room through a connecting wall, holding a brewski in my claw.

Wolfe, be serious or get out. I put a lot of work into this.
You inspect the room in which you awoke (1 move made) to see what looks to be a normal hotel room. The curtains are closed and appear to sway slightly in an unfelt breeze. The bed on which you awoke has plain white sheets and a nightstand to one side of it with a phone and lamp placed on top. To the left of the bed is a closet and bathroom side by side, and to the right of the bed is a door you that you assume leads to the hallway. There is a note pinned to that door with your name on it. The floor is covered in reddish carpet and a TV stands across from the bed. All in all, a normal room. Despite you having no memories of ever entering a hotel last night.

Fine...  Look for one of those pizza advertisements they always have in hotels, and use the phone to order. Alternatively, read the note. |

After searching in vain to find an advert for pizza, you take the note from off the door and read the curling scrawl (see your pm)
You turn on the TV to find that it seems to be stuck on the video player. When you try to change the channel, the buttons click uselessly and one or two of them get jammed. There is a videocassette player below the TV but it seems to be empty and there are no tapes in the room that you can see. You glance back up to the TV and for a moment you are convinced that the static looked like a woman in grey. But no, that would be ridiculous. Wouldn't it?

After writing my response, I quickly realize that I wouldn't get a reply anyway. I eat my note and look out the window.

After discarding the note (and a feeling that you wouldnt survive if you didnt stop goofing around >:c ) you go to the window and push the curtains aside. Strange, it's closed. You couldve sworn there was a breeze moving them. You can just barely make out a high wall enclosing the garden in the back of the hotel. There are many small decorative plants that barely grow 5 feet tall, and all the rest are smaller. The wall itself stretches higher than your own window, which seems to be on the 6th floor. There is a dim light on the ground floor that you can't see the source of, the only light as the moon is nearly invisible in the night sky.
You pick up the phone and dial your agent's number, only to be greeted with a busy line. You try again. And again. After the 5th try, a sympathetic yet cold female voice says "I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is unavailable. Please check that it was dialed correctly and try again." You hang up and decide that these phone lines must not work right.

You open the closet to find a bathrobe on a hanger, a shelf with extra blankets, a shoe rack with a shoebox on it, and a change of clothes that appear to be your size hanging on another hanger. They're the same color as the carpet; a reddish reversible hoodie lined white on the side facing in, and reddish matching pants (tho not reversible). In the dark, you would go unnoticed while wearing them.
