One half of the town gathered around vodean
"vodean you are charged with the..."
"The...?"
"Um guys, has anything actually happened yet?"
"..."
Nevertheless the town knew what had to be done, they took vodean to the old gallows, REALLY old, it was termite eaten and the rope was worn, (public execution hasn't actually been legal here this century) they knew this would be it's last execution. But what would snap first, the rope or vodean's neck?
The moment of truth,
they pull the lever and,
*SNAP*
Oh no!
The rope snaps!
vodean is sent tumbling to the ground underneath the wooden gallows, a present rolls out of his bag.
"He's got a gun!" yells one of the lynchers, pointing at the gun shaped present.
"Huh, this is a gun?" vodean thinks out loud whilst unwrapping the obviously gun shaped gift
"HA, stand back, I'm in charge now, this town has kicked me around long enough!" vodean shoots a warning shot in the air for dramatic effect.
...But it was a flare gun.
The gallows above his head ignites in an instant; then collapses into a fiery prison.
vodean, town lynchstop gifter has been deadline lynched!
Night one begins
I'll send the gifts in a sec, and you will have until Wednesday.
