ROLE - SCIENTIST

Greetings Scientist.

Are you ready to get to work? I certainly hope you are; everyone here is depending on you. After all, your role, your goal is to develop the cure for the raging infection. And if you're not ready to work or don't know where to start, both very understandable, there should be a notebook somewhere that will be of help to you.

Don't worry, you won't have to do this alone. You get to pick an assistant to help you! Maybe even one of those shady figures that go into hiding. Rumor has it that they'll either give you one (1) item to check someone if they are infected or not; it'll take the shape and form of whatever you want. Or, they'll help you create the cure once you know what to do. Isn't that handy?

Except, unfortunately, it's only one or the other. Bummer.

NOTES:
- This is NOT a secret role, however it would be beneficial if you did not make your role public.
- You may request help from one (1) other player and one (1) NPC of your choice. You cannot change your choice.
- If the item is chosen then you may check one (1) player at any point during the week, however, you MUST contact a mod before doing so. The number of players may change depending on outside circumstances.

[ She lets out a sigh, but it's not at Siffrin's question. No, it's directed at the situation as a whole. ]

Neither road will be easy. 'Tis a matter of what you think is best for the future.

[ What... he thinks is best for the future?

What Siffrin thinks is best?

Right. Haha... they're a savior, aren't they? They should be able to do something, especially with all this experience that they should have under their belt from all the loops. Why is this such a hard decision for them to make?

Under their cloak, they wring their hands. ]


Well, we're working together on it! So I should hear you out, too.

[ She nods. Very well, then! ]

You raised an important point—what do we do when we discover an infected? It would be all for naught to know of them and yet do nothing at all with that knowledge.

[ ... ]

A difficult path it would be, aye, but worth it in the end.

So we study them to make the cure... right!

[ Okay, good! Less killing people! Probably!

And yet a part of them feels like they may have bitten more than they could chew but... that's okay! Because they're on the same page! Probably! ]

[ It's all totally fine, Siffrin... Definitely. ]

'Twould be my preferred method of solving our problem. May as well see it through to the very end.

[ Why go through all of this to let them die, right? ]

You may always seek my counsel, should you have need of it. Though the burden weighs heavy, you are not alone in approaching this illness. This will require work that we take on together.

[ Oh. There's something in that which tempers Siffrin's joy over finding a common ground. The seriousness that she takes this with cements the fact that Siffrin has new expectations to fulfill...

...without the help of the loops that have trapped them in Vaugarde. They have one shot at this, and they have to do it right.

Or else... they'll all die, right? If he fails, who'll pick up the pieces? ]


Yeah. I'll do my best.
