Dave is DEAD!! ... WhO.o Dunnit ?!?

This is a discussion thread about the mystery behind Dave's demise. Clues to his death can be found in the Evony - Haunted House Mascarade thread.

If you think you are good at solving riddles and puzzles, and have a slueth's hat laying around somewhere, go find it and any other detective paraphenalia you can git your mits on, and try to solve this mystery of the macabre

These Queries must be answered to solve the whole case:

Who dunnit?
What was the cause of death?
Where did it occur?
What was the motive for the murder?
Or even if it was a murder?

be as specific as you can, cuz half does not count as a whole
remember:
The devil is in the details &
Everyone is innocent until proven guilty


For at this moment, the police have blocked off the crime scene ..

Perhaps there will be more clues when the "reports" are submitted.

And if so, then those reports will be found here, in this discussion thread.

Ace? grumpy..yeah.
Killer? nah.. uh..I mean.. it's Ace! You know.. his bark is worse than his bite. :p

I bet it was Fall hmm.. Haven't we seen her at the party while she was supposedly missing?
Besides that, I didn't even notice half of the people that where mentioned in the article.
Have you seen a bunny of any kind Miss Kitty? I bet the person the KA interviewed had a few too many of those monster drinks http://emoticonhq.com/images/Skype/giggle.gif

Time to flip that newspaper inside out.

*Tries to remember something...anything*

Was I at a party? God, my head hurts! I need a Tylenol.

*Looks down at my hands, and wonders where all the coal dust and red stuff came from*

...and, where did that lady disappear to? She promised she'd 'take care' of me...?

*Hears stomach rumbling, and wonders some more.*

Once we've got the answer, do we PM it or post here? :) Not that I do yet, but I've got some of the answers...I think :)

Post them here, if you would please. My PM box is reserved for infractions. :D

So yes if you have the who, the what with, the where, and especially the why for, and even if it was? post your findings here.

And if you could, explain why you think all the above is the reason you think it is as it was.

If you are close, the police will be notified, and a file of the suspect will be generated, so that that suspect can be brought in for questioning.

For everyone is innocent until proven guilty. And the person of interest may want to seek legal council.

The coroner's report should be ready by weeks end, and will be presented at that time.

So it was someone on the guest list? Or, at the very least, a member of the forums? Or is it a made up character? :)

Yes I am, ma'am.
*Pulls out badge*
Inspector Jannge, from the OTD Division.
*Puts away badge and pulls out notebook and pen*
The body was found on page 8, in the wine basement, right?

That is correct sir, my lovely wife found him there.
But eh.. according to the fifth amendment to the United States constitution I am not obliged to answer your questions am I?
*squints eyes*

Am I under any suspicion?
How about continuing this conversation once my lawyer has arrived...
Would you like a beverage while you wait?
*grabs some scotch*

Sorry, ma'am, but the rules of the United States only applies in the United States, not in Evony. Your obliged to tell me what you saw and heard on that night, before, during and after the body was found. And the part of you being suspicious, yes you are. Why? Your offering alcohol to an officer on duty and trying to stay away from the subject. Kind of suspicious, if you ask me.

Your all guilty until proven otherwise, or however that one goes.

Hey, MY wifey is not under suspicion, Inspector jannge? is it?. She only offered you a drink, cuz you are a guest. I will expect sir, that you should show respect to my wifey-kins. And if you would kindly read the first post, detective, everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
Oh and one of your guys or gals, left their rifle, pistol, vest and badge in the wine room ... and since you are here, there is a note that was left, by, I am assuming Dave. Might want to get a hand writing analysis on that.

EDIT: Why is there a hamburger on the table?

good question, about the handwriting I mean

the hamburger? ah that's nothing, its just a paper weight souvenir, I bought in 1973. Its a real hamburger, mind you, its just that it has so many preservatives in it, it was rendered non-biodegradable.

Does it get an answer? :p

It does deserve an answer, I would think anyways. and an answer I will give you if you but seek to riddle out the note. What do you think Dave is trying to communicate?

And here then is an answer:

Yes Dave was murdered.

But I think the answer you seek is from your question, is the person of interest, fictional or a member. correct?

the answer is yes.

Ah, but which? :p

exactly!!!!!

Back to the question about handwriting then...

Poor dave.
*nervous* I hope nobody noticed that I have quietly returned to town in recent days. If so they probably are suspicious of me already

1) Unless Dave thinks of his life or blood as female, the killer is a her. (The caress also leads to that)
2) It was either a slow death, or the dying was very slow, since he had time to write all that out in blood, and he said he had wished his killer would hurry.

Anything else I can glean must be done when I have caffeine in my system...and I remember who in the world I was following!

I have taken the liberty of writing it out :p

"Mine hour in strife Slow death.
Upon wax'd wooden grain Table? Or maybe the floor...
Whisps of my life
Screams her crimson stain Hmm, could be blood, but I think not...A more favoured suggestion of mine is lipstick...Poisoned by a kiss?

Disguised to bless Again, ties in with lipstick. Poisoned by a kiss?
Did death ascend
From a sweet carress Ties in with the lipstick/kiss idea.
My life did end He's dying...Obviously :p

Unable to prove
Thology seems feign Meant to be theology? Definitely no "i" inthe note though...
Death doth no remove
My wrenching pain He's in pain...Cause he's dying...Obviously :p

Pitch is black
As a marker
If in hell I am back
Then hell is darker Seemingly pointless verse? Any ideas anyone?

Happy would I forgive
Here in hell's waste
If in hell's cavernous sieve I'm slightly confused about "sieve"...Only used to rhyme with "forgive"?
My killer would haste His death is taking too long, and he's in pain...

I am no more
Tis here I die
Through death's door
Do I fly He's dying...And now dead."

Also some things you, KA said in a post after the start of the party...I saw them right after the murder, and so far, haven't been able to glean anything important...Maybe others can...

"logic and proportion has fallen sloppy dead"
"and the white knight is talking backwards"
"and the red queens off with her head"
"remember, what the doorman said"
"feed your head"

The only thing I kind of got was the doorman thing...Very tiny print at the bottom of the mascarade...I'm not gonna copy it out again...But it said something about enjoy yourself, and make it out alive.

The last thing is the article...Took a long time to read such tiny print, but that was what gave me the first idea of the murderer, but I would need to read it again so I remember, and I'm too tired to :D

Your move KA :p

I wont tell you yet how you did on your "note analysis"

But I will reveal to you this .. in plain words ...

Most of all Characters are Members, but in a Fictional way, even Dave ... poor Dave ...

See if you can come up with a Suspect(s) list, and the mens rea of each suspect
