Death Off the Cuff by Simon Christiansen
DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH by Gunther Schmidl
Oth. by Gunther Schmidl
The Great Ritual by Gunther Schmidl
Only After Dark by Gunther Schmidl
INHERIT! by Gunther Schmidl
As played on ifMUD on July 10, 2014

Like ClubFloyd, the idea behind NightFloyd is that a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction.

Unlike ClubFloyd, NightFloyd often takes on significantly larger works of interactive fiction, knowing going in that each one will take multiple sessions (but not always, as you'll see in this transcript). NightFloyd is also a bit more informal than ClubFloyd in that it's only announced on the ifMUD #clubfloyd bulletin board, and the time shifts around to meet player's schedules far more than ClubFloyd does. NightFloyd is organized by genericgeekgirl, aka Adri.

Below is a transcript of Death Off the Cuff written by Simon Christiansen, DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH written by Gunther Schmidl, Oth. written by Gunther Schmidl, The Great Ritual written by Gunther Schmidl, Only After Dark written by Gunther Schmidl, and INHERIT! written by Gunther Schmidl. Yes, it was a Gunther Schmidl love fest. Which is a phrase that will sound even worse after you've read the transcript. You can learn more about the games, including how to download them, by visiting the IFDB pages: Death Off the Cuff, DEATH DEATH DEATH DEATH, Oth., The Great Ritual, Only After Dark, and INHERIT!.


WARNING! Below you will find a transcript of people playing these games, and it goes without saying that the transcript is full of spoilers. So, if you've never played these games, and think you might like to at some point, I do not recommend reading any further. Instead, you might want to return to the interactive fiction page.

ANOTHER WARNING! A lot (most!) of the transcripts contained on this site are, shall we say, family-friendly. This is not one of those family-friendly transcripts. Just so we're clear.

Floyd | "I assume you have gathered us here for a reason, Monsieur Saint
Floyd | Germain?", says Shane Pearson.
Floyd |
Floyd | "Is it not obvious?" says the Doctor. "The detective has figured out
Floyd | who killed the Colonel and intends to explain to us how he did it."
Floyd |
Floyd | You twirl your moustache. "The good Doctor is correct, Mademoiselle
Floyd | Pearson. I have indeed solved the case. The murderer was clever, but
Floyd | he proved no match for my gray matter." You tap a finger against the
Floyd | side of your head to illustrate the point.
Floyd |
Floyd | They all stare at you expectantly, like children waiting to be told a
Floyd | bedtime story. And who can blame them? You are, after all, Anthony
Floyd | Saint Germain, the great French detective. No criminal has ever been a
Floyd | match for you, and everybody is looking forward to a description of
Floyd | your brilliant deductions.
Floyd |
Floyd | There is just one small problem. One tiny detail that makes it
Floyd | different this time. A mere trifle, really. This time you have no idea
Floyd | who did it. An entire day of investigation have turned up nothing. No
Floyd | one even seems to have a damn motive.
Floyd |
Floyd | No matter. Most of the time when you do this the murderer breaks down
Floyd | and confesses half way through your speech anyway. All you have to do
Floyd | is stall and wait for the guilty party to slip up. People love talking
Floyd | about themselves. If you wait long enough, they always end up
Floyd | revealing something you can use.
Floyd |
Floyd | It is going to be fine.

Floyd | Hotel Lounge
Floyd | The hotel lounge is small, but comfortable. A large couch stands near
Floyd | one wall, with a mahogany couch table in front of it. Next to it is an
Floyd | old fashioned reclining chair. In the corner of the room, an old
Floyd | grandfather clock is steadily ticking away, lending a dignified air to
Floyd | the proceedings.
Floyd |
Floyd | James Garfield, the owner of Seafront Hotel, is standing by the clock,
Floyd | watching you expectantly.
Floyd |
Floyd | Jonathan Allington stands next to Mr. Garfield, his employer. His face
Floyd | reveals no emotions.
Floyd |
Floyd | Shane Pearson is sitting in the couch with her legs crossed.
Floyd |
Floyd | Doctor Elias Mole is sitting next to Shane in the couch, leaning
Floyd | forward with an inquisitive look in his eyes.
Floyd |
Floyd | Count Heinrich Von Carstein is leaning backwards in the reclining
Floyd | chair, sipping a glass of wine.
Floyd |
Floyd | Detective Goodfellow is standing behind you, eagerly waiting to assist
Floyd | you in arresting the murderer.

Floyd | "Lay down your spears now, and use your heads and wisdom instead."
Floyd |
Floyd | The newly initiated men nodded, and you felt a pang of envy. One day,

Floyd |
Floyd | Suddenly, there was a commotion. Bekenga, a young cow herder, ran into
Floyd | the middle of the congregation. The elders stared at him angrily; this
Floyd | was not the time for an interruption. But what he had to say quickly
Floyd | disrupted the ritual anyway.
Floyd |
Floyd | A whole herd of cattle had been stolen; one of the herders wounded and
Floyd | unconscious on the ground, in the scorching sun; the other, missing.
Floyd |
Floyd | This is of course a serious matter. Cattle theft is bad enough;

Floyd |
Floyd | Quickly, the elders had selected a group of warriors to find both herd
Floyd | and herder; and to your joy, you were one of them.
Floyd |
Floyd | That was twelve hours ago now. You have been tracking footprints
Floyd | across the plains, going with little food and water. You just hope you
Floyd | will find something, anything, soon.

Floyd | THE GREAT RITUAL

Floyd | (c) 1999 by Gunther Schmidl.
Floyd | Release 1 / Serial number 991212 / Inform v6.21 Library 6/10
Floyd |
Floyd | Plains
Floyd | The plains stretch endlessly into every direction. There is little
Floyd | growth, and little life here; the heat of the desert sun is enough to
Floyd | keep anyone from wandering too far from their home. The tracks you
Floyd | have been following steadily lead to the west.
Floyd |
Floyd | You briefly wonder where the others are now, and whether they have
Floyd | found the herd yet. But you will not - can not - give up before them.
Floyd | You will continue to follow the tracks. You will reach manhood this
Floyd | very year, with the others.

Floyd |
Floyd | Suddenly, she notices you. To disturb an eating lion is dangerous, and

Floyd |
Floyd | As the lion pounces on you, you quickly jump aside; the mighty paw
Floyd | only barely fails to tear open your side. Now your warrior instincts
Floyd | break through again, your senses sharp; you play with the lioness,
Floyd | taunting her with the spear as if it were a game. She gets more and
Floyd | more furious, and then she stumbles for a second as she whips around
Floyd | to meet you again.
Floyd |
Floyd | Quickly, you drive the head of the spear into her flank, and she howls
Floyd | in pain; again and again you hit her, until she moves no longer.
Floyd |
Floyd | Only as you pull the spear out of her one last time, you notice you
Floyd | are breathing heavily and glistening with sweat.

Floyd | in the middle, reaching hundreds of feet up into the cool night air.
Floyd | The huts of the villagers are strewn around the clearing's border,
Floyd | close to the jungle.
Floyd | A large stone circle contains charred wood from last night's bonfire,
Floyd | and there is a rickety wooden platform under one of the lower branches
Floyd | of the tree.

Floyd |
Floyd | The sound of the door being opened awakes you with a start. In come
Floyd | the village Elder and the intimidating shaman, accompanied by the two
Floyd | guards. The Elder says something to one of the guards. He quickly
Floyd | moves behind you, restraining your hands with rope, then helps you to
Floyd | step into your trousers.
Floyd |
Floyd | You are quickly led to the platform in the village center, where the
Floyd | gallows have already been prepared. The guards push through the small
Floyd | crowd of assembled villagers, up the steps, then fasten the rope
Floyd | around your neck.
Floyd |
Floyd | Just then, you see Gerhardsen and Aten step out of the woods. Seeing
Floyd | what's up, they run towards the Elder, your friend shouting something
Floyd | in their language.
Floyd |
Floyd | You see the shaman and Elder turn towards the two. "Mr. Gerhardsen!
Floyd | Aten!" you shout in relief.
Floyd |
Floyd | "Don't worry, Ranil, we'll have you out of there in no time," comes
Floyd | Gerhardsen's response. He stands in front of the Elder, taller by
Floyd | almost a head, and begins shouting at him, with Aten translating. The
Floyd | shaman answers back, and soon they are engaged in heated conversation.
Floyd |
Floyd | Suddenly, you notice something about the shaman that makes you
Floyd | flinch: He is wearing a wolf fur!
Floyd |
Floyd | As you open your mouth to join the argument, the guard next to you

Floyd |
Floyd | Shoving the Elder aside, Aten runs to you and quickly cuts you loose.
Floyd | You try to say something, but only manage a croak before the shaman

Floyd |
Floyd | You and Aten watch in horror as as the villagers fall to the ground,

Floyd | Finally, you reach the shore. The boat lies here, but you don't have

Floyd | water, swimming a safe distance from the shore. The wolves break out
Floyd | of the woods but they stop at the water, howling and hissing. It seems
Floyd | they are afraid of it; and you swim towards the Dagon unhindered.
Floyd |
Floyd | Quickly, strong hands pull you out of the water and you are escorted
Floyd | into the Captain's cabin.
Floyd |
Floyd | You quickly explain what happened; and though the story doesn't even
Floyd | sound convincing to yourself, Captain Davids believes you.
Floyd |
Floyd | "I have heard of werewolves in these parts, but a whole village? This
Floyd | evil must be stopped. I have the suspicion that this shaman you spoke
Floyd | of is the cause of this evil... if we manage to destroy him, maybe the
Floyd | others will be saved, too."
Floyd |
Floyd | You nod; it didn't seem that the villagers had any idea of what was
Floyd | going on when they were gathered to lynch you.
Floyd |
Floyd | "I have an idea. It is very dangerous, but it might work. In my
Floyd | library are certain old books; and one of them describes a salve that
Floyd | can transform a man into a wolf for some time."
Floyd |
Floyd | You nod grimly. "Let me do it."
Floyd |
Floyd | "Ranil! It is very dangerous! If you stay in wolf-form too long, you
Floyd | might not be able to ever become human again; and I do not know if
Floyd | your strength can match that of the shaman. But I can see in your eyes
Floyd | that you are determined to do it, and so I shall prepare everything.
Floyd |
Floyd | "I know it is only morning, but you must go and sleep now, for you
Floyd | will need all your strength later. I shall wake you around midnight."
Floyd |
Floyd | Again, you nod, and leave for your hammock in the ship's hold as
Floyd | Davids pulls a black-bound leather tome out of his book case. You lie
Floyd | down and quickly fall into a troubled sleep.

Floyd |

Floyd | hands you a piece of wood, "bite down on this."
Floyd |
Floyd | At first, you feel nothing. Then, a tingle runs over your skin, and
Floyd | then the pain hits you. You fall to the floor, your teeth grinding
Floyd | into the wood, your vision dimmed. Your breath comes in short gasps,
Floyd | and an explosion of pain makes you pass out for a few seconds.
