Red Truths
- Purple has the same authority as Red, except the culprit - and ONLY the culprit - can lie. All other survivors of each set of murders speaks only the truth as they know it!
- The game lasts a single round, taking place after the murders have already been carried out; in essence, we skip straight to the final meta phase!
- All deaths and their circumstances are given at the start of the game; likewise, everything in the narrative is the truth.
- There may be more than one culprit, and a culprit is defined as someone who kills with their own hands, even if it’s self-defense.
- A culprit who has yet to commit murder can still lie in Purple Declaration!
- There are no accomplices; anyone who helps a culprit must, themselves, be a culprit!
- There are only five master keys, each one tied to a servant; in essence, the servant is the master key and the key cannot be removed from them, as when their corpse is discovered their key is immediately destroyed.
- While on the subject of keys, a door cannot be unlocked from the outside without a key.
- There is no rule for it given, but in this instance the rule about master keys will be applied to the study key as well: when Genji’s corpse is discovered, the key will be destroyed and the key cannot be removed from Genji.
- All windows have bars and thus cannot be passed through.
- And last but not least, THERE IS NO DETECTIVE!
- The chapel key and tool shed key do exist this time around, however only the servants have access in this instance.
- Even though they CAN lie in purple, doesn’t mean the culprit will ALWAYS lie in purple!
Purple Testimonies
First Twilight:
Krauss: “I-I never left the group while we were doing the investigation for the riddle.…”
Natsuhi: “Rosa was with us until she remembered her promise to deliver clothes to the girl who washed up on our island and nobody else left the group.”
Eva: “Now that you mention it, the servants did call it a day a little early….”
Hideyoshi: “I didn’t see or hear anything out of the ordinary until we found all those bodies.”
Rudolf: “Kyrie and I were in father’s study, reading books and looking through maps. Damn old man can’t make anything easy, can he?”
Kyrie: “I haven’t seen Kinzo all night, either. Is he really dead? Genji was pretty tight-lipped about it all, but I have seen nothing suggesting he’s still alive.”
Genji: “I took the masters up to master Kinzo’s study at their request. They wanted to search through his books and maps, and as I am the holder of the key I went with them. The other servants were to go about their duties, and Nanjo was to look after the young girl’s condition.”
Battler: “Well, the five of us went back to the guest house after dinner with Shannon, but she was still working for a little while longer. She left at some point, but I passed out from such a long day before she returned.”
Jessica: “We were talking with each other, reminiscing about the last time Battler came to the island. Kanon and Shannon were working, but he was able to come by to bring us refills on tea. He didn’t have much to say, though.”
George: “Battler was the first one asleep. Jessica and Maria fell asleep not long after Kanon left, so I went out to see if Shannon was still around. I had wanted to ask her a very important question and asked earlier at dinner that she meet me in the gazebo when her shift ended. She didn’t show up, so I went back to the guest house and went to bed.”
Maria: “Uuu~! Today was fun! I showed Battler and the others some magic tricks that Beatrice taught me, but I got sleepy after Battler went to bed. I think I fell asleep on Jessica, Uuu~”
Erika: “What? Why am I giving a testimony? I nearly drowned, washed up some strange island, and passed out in front of the mansion door. I haven’t even woken up by this point!”
Second Twilight:
Natsuhi: “The group went up to father’s study for guns. There’s a killer on the loose so we needed to arm ourselves! Nobody broke off until we split up. My husband and daughter...they didn’t come back, and then we heard the gunshot……”
Eva: “My husband and I went to bring Gohda to the parlor. I guarded him as he did the heavy lifting.”
Hideyoshi: “We stuck with Rudolf and Kyrie most of the way, since we were heading about the same way. Rudolf gave his gun to Kyrie so he could carry Kumasawa.”
Rudolf: “She didn’t want to do any heavy lifting, which is nuts. Kumasawa wasn’t even that heavy! Kyrie said she was the better shot so it was best if we traded.”
Kyrie: “We beat Hideyoshi and Eva. Not surprising, considering how we didn’t have as far to go. We had a bit of a head start over them, so we made it back to the parlor first.”
Genji: “Lord Battler and I went up to the second floor, right across from Lady Jessica’s room to Nanjo’s office. He was my dear friend, so I volunteered to carry him.”
Battler: “I watched Genji’s back. He muttered under his breath - probably a short prayer or something - and carried Nanjo down the stairs. He’s stronger than he looks, that’s for sure.”
George: “Battler and Genji were the last group to come back. I had expected uncle Krauss and Jessica to come back last since she had a huge crush on Kanon.”
Maria: “Uuu~ aunt Natsuhi is so nice. She let me show her some magic tricks while George watched the door. She didn’t want me to look at Beatrice’s first sacrifices, so she tried to keep me from watching them come back, but I saw aunt Eva and uncle Hideyoshi come in a little after uncle Rudolf and aunt Kyre.”
Erika: “I’ve been out cold since the start of this stupid game, but I started to wake up I think, because I’m pretty sure I heard that gunshot from this guest room.”
Fourth Twilight:
Natsuhi: “D-don’t look at me, I was in the parlor crying over my husband and daughter just before now! I never saw anyone go upstairs!”
Eva: “I was with my husband, Rudolf, and Genji in the cellar. We came straight back to the parlor after we found father’s body so we could get some answers out of that whore, Natsuhi.”
Hideyoshi: “Eva, Rudolf, Genji, and I didn’t check the entire cellar, that stench distracted us. However, we found the outer door in the garden locked. We never saw anybody go upstairs.”
Rudolf: “I was at the back of the group when we were coming up. I stood watch over Genji while he locked the door behind us. We caught back up to Eva and Hideyoshi and went straight to the parlor.”
Kyrie: “Battler carried Jessica’s body, I took Kanon’s, George took Krauss’. George got to the parlor first, and I was the last of our group. Natsuhi followed the boys.”
Genji: “I led Hideyoshi, Rudolf, and Eva to the cellar where Master Kinzo’s body was found. We saw no other people, however the door that Kanon’s and Jessica’s bodies had been at was not locked. I locked it behind me.”
Battler: “George volunteered to take uncle Krauss’ body, and I took Jessica’s. That left Kyrie to get Kanon. I didn’t see anyone go upstairs.”
George: “Maria was checking the doors when we split up and started moving the bodies. I took her and aunt Natsuhi back to the parlor.”
Maria: “Uuu~ All the doors Maria checked were locked! Not that Beatrice can be stopped by such a thing. George had some cards so I could play, but he didn’t want to so Sakutarou and I played by ourselves.”
