Ascension Address
You wake up, as if from a dream. You can't remember where you came from or how you got here, or where here even is. After blinking a few times, you see that you're in a dimly lit room that you don't recognize, and you're lying on the floor. The light comes from a pile of flashlights in the center of the room. Around you are other people you've never seen before, also lying on the floor and apparently in the same confused state as you. Before you have a chance to say or do anything, a disembodied voice speaks with a low rumbling tone:
Welcome to Banewood Mansion. It's been a long time since we've had guests here. I've been quite lonely since they...departed. But now you're here. Please...do pick up a flashlight and have a look around. I think you'll find the rooms of this house quite interesting. They may even take your breath away. However, do not think of leaving. It is impossible to do so until I've judged you worthy. Furthermore, only one of you will be so lucky. The rest...well, the ones who don't make it might just become a permanent addition to the "entertainment" you'll find here. Enjoy your stay!
The voice ends the last phrase with a long echoing laugh that fades away into the dark recesses of the house.
The dynasty's theme shall be "Banewood Mansion"
Repeal all dynastic rules except the rule "Grillin'"
Change Proprietor to Narrator and Group to Explorer
Change the gamestate tracking page to "Banewood Mansion"
Set the Special Case rule "Dynastic Distance" to Active. Leave all other Special Case rules at their current values.
This dynasty is inspired by the board game Betrayal at House on the Hill, which is about exploring a haunted house and surviving the horrors within.
I like the idea of mentioning Imperial Styles, so for this dynasty, mine will be: Guide, Protective, Powerhouse, Scam-Neutral, Guarded, Methodical
Players
The following players were active at the beginning of this Dynasty: Benbot, Brendan, Bucky, Darknight, Habanero, JonathanDark, Josh, Jumble, Kevan, Raven1207, SingularByte, Snisbo, Trapdoorspyder
The following players were active at the end of this Dynasty:
