Add a new subrule of Rule 2.2 (Life and Death), called “Poison”:-
The Food and Drinks in Cartlesham Manor may each be either Poisoned or Safe. Both start as Safe. Whenever an Incident occurs, if any Guests are Poisoned, the Executor shall select one of those Guests at random. That Guest becomes Dead.
After the first paragraph of Rule 2.7.2 (Functions of Roles), add:-
Performing actions around the house can be thirsty work. If the Drinks are Poisoned when a Guest exercises a power from this rule, the Executor may change that Guest’s Status to “Poisoned”, within 24 hours of the power being exercised.
Add a new subrule to Rule 2.8 (Manor Plan) called “Dining Room”:-
As a weekly Action, if a non-Dormant Guest is alone in the Dining Room and the Lights are On, they may Serve Dinner by posting a blog entry to that effect. Upon doing so, every Guest in the Dining Room becomes Healthy. If the Food is Poisoned, the Executor may change to “Poisoned” the Status of any Guest who was in the Dining Room at the time when Dinner was Served, with 24 hours of Dinner being Served.
Add a new subrule to Rule 2.8 (Manor Plan) called “Dining Room”:-
As a weekly Action, if a non-Dormant Guest is in the Kitchen and the Lights are On, they may restock the larder by posting a blog entry to that effect. Upon doing so, the Food and Drinks both become Safe unless the Guest taking this action is a Murderer, in which case they both become Poisoned.
Make the second paragraph of Rule 2.5.1 (Genealogy) into a subrule of Rule 2.8 called “Study”.
Make the first paragraph of Rule 2.5.1 (Genealogy) into a subrule of Rule 2.8 called “Library”.
Repeal Rule 2.5.1.
To the list of actions in Rule 2.6, add:-
- Poison food or drinks. This action may only be taken by a Murderer, and only taken in the Kitchen. A Dark List may contain only one Poison action. The Murderer must specify whether Food or Drinks are being poisoned; upon doing so, those items become poisoned. Taking this action makes a Glugging Noise.
An attempt to do something with the “Poisoned” guest status - the murderers can poison food and drink by sneaking into the kitchen. Performing a role action (which is currently something of a no-brainer) would then have a chance of making you Poisoned, if the house’s drinks had been drugged.
(Since we’re making a subrule for a specific room, we might as well move the Study and Library actions out into their own rules.)
Put:
I think you wrote dining room instead of kitchen there or something, also “As a weekly Action, if a non-Dormant Guest is alone in the Dining Room…Upon doing so, every Guest in the Dining Room becomes Healthy.”
But wouldn’t that mean you could only serve dinner to yourself?
(also wouldn’t that mean that a dead body in the dining room could come back to life ? O_o
