The girl's journey home should never have been considered dangerous, but the Company man was there, waiting in the shadows, rifle in hand. He knew these things could fall well beyond the comfort of "morally grey" - but who was he to question orders. A shot rang out, and his work was done. Please_Reframe is dead. He was Claire Bennet. ~ The police officer regretted entering the house as soon as he had. Exiting, he retched onto the street. The smell of death he had experienced before, even of the innocent, but this? There was nothing to prepare him for the discovery of a child with his skull carved in two. AVA is dead. He was Micah Sanders. ~ With the back of his head horribly mangled, the old man lay on the floor of his office. There had been no sign of a break in. Athlai is dead. He was Kaito Nakamura. ~ It is now Day Two. With 17 alive, 9 votes are needed for a majority.
Could be either really, but I'd lean towards Vig, or maybe even 3rd party (If there could be one). Athers was hardly 100% clear after the previous day, and pretty much asked to be vigged as well.
What's more interesting is that he hasn't appeared as a mafia member. Which suggests Ritchie was either lying, had his report tampered with or he's a dodgy cop. As to whether it was a vig hit, "there was no sign of a break in" - anyone with the power to walk through walls or something of the sort? Might indicate whether this is a town hit or a mafia hit.
For the first point, Athers did claim Miller, so since he's died at town, We'll have to assume that he was telling the truth about that.
A little bit suspicious, but there's no reason why a townie couldn't have a double visit. For example, is there anyone with Super Speed as a power? Might allow them to act twice?
Maybe you'll all shout at me for this, but I don't know it seems like the right play to me given the fact we've already lost five town for no mafia. I know who visited Athali. Hence the questions.
D.L. Hawkins? I don't think he was claiming miller. I think he thought that it might be why he came up as guilty. It's been a long time since I played mafia - don't millers usually appear as mafia when they're killed off?
Nah, not normally unless we're being bastard mod. (Quickly checked FTR, mafia wiki basically confirmed)
Ah. Okay then. My mistake. Looking up D.L. Hawkins suggests that he could reasonably be a candidate for the hit on Athlai. More likely to be town than mafia, potentially 3rd party? Maybe someone who knows the canon better might be able to comment in a more informed way?
Correct. And you're correct BTW Heef on the identity. at Ritchie, kinda surprised that Howe would allow that.
