A very intereztin' caze, ziz iz. Ach...

Will there be an autopsy to definitively determine that Skarzs was offed by the poison?  Or, should we just roll with that being definitively proven as fact?

[HeadInAnotherGalaxy]

Nev report on ze murder o' Skarzs:

--**---**--

It has been revealed that the member kenned as Skarzs was found dead in the Cellars by ze Friar, lying on his back. In his hand was a mug of October Ale, which it has just been determined containted- amongst other things- nightshade. From this evidence, it is now believed that the cause of death was poisoning. It is theorised that he started drinking the poisoned October Ale in the mug, got poisoned, and died. Whether he was aware of the nightshade in the drink prior to drinking, or also if he was forced into drinking the poisoned drink, has yet to be determined. Everybeast is advised to come forward if they have or discover any further clues or evidence that can help find the dead member's killer.

Kaaaaaaade, you're the Cellars mod. How could something like this happen on your watch? There's no way you don't know who did it - Unless you were slacking at your job, ooooooor you did it yourself. *Squints*

[Kade Rivok]

I'm the Cellars Loop actually; I'm not as all powerful as a mod.  Now, if I had been a mod, I can assure you that something like this wouldn't have happened, but I'm not really in control of that, AM I?

The fact that you're trying to cast doubt on fellow staff is a bit suspicious, don't you think?  And let's not forget that you were a founder of the original BWAS. HMMMMMMMMMMM

[Verdauga]

It was me. I mistook the nightshade for chamomile and put it in the October Ale to add to the flavor.

[Kade Rivok]

I don't know who you're trying to protect, but we both know that you don't play with alcohol.

[Verdauga]

You're right. It's a tool.

[Verdauga]

It is fine Rill; I appreciate the pun, at least.

You utter Sherlock, you.

The Cellars is still your domain to keep a close eye on, y'know. We thought we could trust you to keep everything under control and keep things like this from happening.

I may have been a founder of the original BWAS, but no permanent physical damage ever befell poor Skarzsles and it's been silent for many a moon now. Could this be you trying to set me up so you can take my place as senior mod, Mr. "I'm Just a LoOp But This Wouldn't Have Happened If I Were a Mod"? Is this a powergrab at the expense of one our members?

[The Skarzs]

*Rolls in my grave for being called Skarzsles.*
