(Steve B.)
*You appear to be*
A whacked out retired military man. You’re a fun one yes, you love the military and you love talking about your campaigns against the Confederates, Mexicans, Indians, Chinese, Eskimos, you name it! So, as you can guess, at times some of your stories may be a little tall, but since you've retired as a high-ranking officer, you use it to your advantage in the “prestige department”. During the civil war you were stationed at Fort Riley and never really saw much action though you heard many stories of the war elsewhere. (You can think up what you were really doing between the 1860s and the 90s). You retired to a small country estate south of Omaha though you'd love nothing more than a place as nice as Mr. White’s.
*You really are*
Having an affair with Mrs. White. You’re well known, do several public service activities during the past couple years, and you've recently become acquainted with Mrs. White *insert cat growl*. You love the attention she gives you, she’s a younger, finer woman to have in your grasp as well and the actual intrigue/danger of being with a married woman has given you new life.
*Last night you were*
Planning on making love and having a generally good time with Mrs. White as it had been weeks since you saw her last. In order to avoid any suspicion, you made yourself as social as ever earlier in the evening (even having a lot of fun flirting with Ms. Scarlet, the famous actress you enjoy so much). You later joined Quicksilver, Green, White, Burgundy, & Steel for poker and some good whisky. You and Mr. Green excused yourself from the game and ************* ************* ***************** ******* ***** *****. You don't remember what happened after that! Actually, you then found yourself on the kitchen floor with a huge aching bruise on your head, a candlestick with a partial candle in one hand, and a bloody knife in the other. Your nightmare gets worse as you can see in the slight light of dawn Mr. White’s bloodied body lying in front of you. Did you do this?! You panic, drop the knife and hurriedly make your way back to your room. No one is there and you think no one was up to see you. You calm down, wipe your one hand clean, and then lie down letting everything sink in. What happened to you last night? Were you drugged? Knocked out and framed? Did you, could you have killed your host, Mr. White?!
*Advice*
It'd be great if you and Mrs. White could marry and have all Mr. White's wealth, but that means you may be a huge suspect. You probably want to find out from her what happened last night though she may resist if she thinks you committed the murder. You also don't want to give away any relationship you two have. Must remain calm, think of an alibi (up sleeping in my room after the poker game, of course?) and somehow try to figure this out. Worst of all is that you may have killed him and someone else saw you. Maybe there's something in the law protecting you if you're insane or under the influence? Could you have been drugged, knocked out, possessed? May need to confide in someone to try to regain your memory (psychic, professor, doctor). Would being with Ms. Scarlet help you look less associated with Mrs. White or would that just upset her into revealing something about you. You have a fun evening ahead with the inspector and sheriff nearby; at least folks are used to you being a little “whacked out”. :)
*Addendums*
1) You notice that your gold watch is missing from your room!
2) Apparently being hit on the head by the lead pipe knocked some sense into, you remember everything that happened last night. After leaving the poker game, you went to Mrs. White's room and plotted, drank and made love while Mr. White was still downstairs playing poker. Mrs. White decided to strangle her husband and make it look like a suicide while you would help be her alibi if necessary (seeing her enter and not leaving her bedroom or something?). She left you to go outside and get the rope from out beyond the Patio Area. While she was gone you heard a gun shot from the South Terrace area and you quickly went downstairs to check it out . You joined Grey, Steel, Burgundy, Cardinal and Burt Sienna in the Lounge. Deciding that everything was ok (no one saw anything, and there seemed to be no effect from the shot) you all went your separate ways. You were thirsty and decided to go to the kitchen. It was dark so you grabbed a lit candlestick from the Hall on your way in. As you entered the kitchen you briefly saw Mr. White's bloody body before being hit over the head with, apparently, the lead pipe. Unfortunately you don't remember seeing who hit you, but they had to be big enough to knock you out with one blow.
