Who: SOME DUDE IN YELLOW (and his shouta ghost)
Where: The main room of Orion dorms (and, eventually, just outside, if you need an excuse)
When: Day 83, Morning.
What: Intro~

*The new blank has promptly confiscated the largest knife he can find, and his holding it with a fair amount of confidence for someone who has no memory of how to use it. It is not time to systematically check all the other rooms in the dorms. He pushes the doors open quietly, and seems quite prepared to stab anyone if necessary.

And, for those who can see such things, there is a small ghost child floating behind him*

[......have a much longer look this time.]

Where is he, exactly? And why do you have his body?

*points to a corner, pauses, as if listening to something*

We don't know. He can't control it, but he perceives what I do. ...what does it mean?

[Tiiips his head to one side and looks at the indicated spot.]

I have no idea.

What does he look like?

A small boy. Black hair, pale skin. Not so different from this form.

...and your body? Do you know what that's meant to be like?

No.

How do you know you have another one, then?

I know.

...if I had to guess, I'd say that if there are two of you and only one body, the judges left the other one wherever you came from when they took you here.

Then the Judges can bring it here, or return me there.

They could bring it here, potentially. There are ways to get things from the place you came from- tasks you can do for them or their team that allow you to be given something in exchange. I've never heard of it done with a body, but as far as I know, no one has been missing one before.

As for them returning you... it won't happen. The only way to do that is supposedly to play their games, regain your memories, and "win."

Win and we escape?

Mm. And get a wish granted, or so the story seems to be.

...a wish.

It's not confirmed. No one has won, yet.

And how do you 'lose'?

You get taken away by one of the judges or encased in a rock called the pillar. Who's taken and who stays doesn't seem to be based on how many games have been lost, though.

Undefined rules on all ends.

Unfortunately. They don't like giving answers.

That's no surprise.

In any case, you wanted to hear about them, didn't you?

*nods*

There are... [Pauses to think this over.] ...twenty-two of them that people have seen, I believe. Not all of them have run games, and the games that they run can be very different depending on the judge.

The most dangerous ones are Surgeon and Trickster, but King's games also have a reputation for building mistrust between the teams.

Where do you find them?
