Ritual 31 - Daffodil

[crittersheep]

[You're pulled into an enclosure--it simultaneously feels alive and inorganic. You're free to move around, though you can't escape. The walls are both papery and velvet, and the only light emitted is that from six grey sheep that sit silently against one of the walls. They each don a greyed out version of your flock's flower sprouting from one eye, and a grey, dripping candle upon their heads.

As for you, you feel a sting--a papercut. You bleed a tiny drop of blood that stretches thin, like a thread. It somehow penetrates the wall, and if you tug on it, you can tell it's connected to something. What though, you're not sure.]

[ tips his head, watching him, but once he has decided muffin is not actually injured and just kind of creeped out by the sheep he decides that's good enough and goes back to looking at the other things '-'b ]

[ feeling against the blood droplet to the wall, but he doesn't do much more with it once he's tugged it gently and realizes it's connected to something ]

Don't you want to lick it?

ROUND 1

[crittersheep]

ROUND ONE
[Suddenly the sheep speak--and warp, taking on humanoid, blank-slate forms. They still have candles on their heads.]

Please, choose one of us and do what needs to be done. Our bodies are merely vessels to be used.

[Each sheep/person vocalizes the method to be put to use on them:]

1) "Strangle me with your bare hands"
2) "Remove a limb with your own power."
3) "Carve a pound of my flesh out."
4) "Rip through my flesh with your teeth."
5) "Rip an emotion you deem essential from my being."
6) "Hold my head down in water until I still."

If you do not have any weapons/objects on you, one will be provided for the specified task. For the emotion option, whoever is doing the task, their hand will glow with a dark power, enabling them to reach in and extra the emotion.

Choose two tasks, and who will enact them. It can be the same person who wants to carry out both, or voice if you're abstaining.]

DECISION

Re: DECISION

[villainrole]

Pudding
1) "Strangle me with your bare hands"

Biscuit
4) "Rip through my flesh with your teeth."

[Pudding will also ask:]
Please clarify if murder is necessary for the strangulation, or if it's a bonus, if you don't mind.

RESULTS

[crittersheep]

The Strangling

[wooliefrand]

[A humanoid sheep steps forward, baring its neck for your grip.

Once your hands are placed upon it, you'll be compelled to squeeze harder and harder, until the victim is on the cusp of unconsciousness. But you will not kill them. . .



Unless you want to. That is very much bonus. He will know this instinctively.]

The Flesh - CW Cannibalism Adjacent

[wooliefrand]

[The humanoid sheep walks forward, presenting its shoulder and bared neck, though he can bite where ever he sees fit.

Commence.]

M'fine doing 1, 4, or 5.

For five I'd take someone's hunger.

Re: DISCUSSION

[villainrole]

I don't mind doing the tasks each time, it doesn't bother me.

ROUND 2

[crittersheep]

Your gifts imbue the our sacrifices with amazing power.

Use those powers to inflict the harshest punishment within your mortal imaginations up the sacrifice.

[ooc: use your sheep powers to inflict a punishment of your choice/creation. Depending on the severity, additional punishments may be added if the demons don't feel you are putting effort into it.

You still don't know who specifically the sacrifice may be, but given your flock's last two victims, that can help narrow it down.]

[Ah, no one can see him. That's fine. It is perhaps better this way anyway. He's the only one that can see the sins he had committed. It is perhaps better this way anyway. The world never saw him anyway, right . . . ?

It is perhaps better this way anyway. ]
