ClubFloyd Transcript:
Sub Rosa by Joey Jones and Melvin Rangasamy
As played on ifMUD on May 1 & 8, 2016

The idea behind ClubFloyd is that each week at a pre-arranged time, a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction.

Below is a transcript of Sub Rosa written by Joey Jones and Melvin Rangasamy. Sub Rosa took 6th place in the 2015 Interactive Fiction Competition, and as of the date of this transcript has been nominated for three Xyzzy Awards (Best Setting, Best Puzzles, and Best Individual Puzzle). You can learn more about the game, including how to download it, by visiting the IFDB page: Sub Rosa.


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.

Floyd |
Floyd | To name a secret is to destroy it and Confessor Destine is a man made
Floyd | of secrets. It has taken seventeen careful years but soon he will be
Floyd | undone.
Floyd |
Floyd | Leathery Cliff
Floyd | You stand calf-deep in mud beneath a leathery cliff that bisects the
Floyd | otherwise endless Mambling Plain. You have with you all the tools
Floyd | you'll need to infiltrate the Destine mansion and discover what lies
Floyd | the Confessor has concealed. Somewhere along this cliff is the
Floyd | possibility of an intersection into another plain.

Floyd | >
Floyd | > X LLAMA SUIT
Floyd |
Floyd | From feet to appendages to head, your form is completely covered by a
Floyd | thin-weave suit made wholly from the wool of the pellucid llama. It
Floyd | renders you undetectable to all the senses that matter, including your
Floyd | own.
Floyd |
Floyd | You wove it yourself under the tutelage of the master weaver, White
Floyd | Widow. For her knowledge and silence she only asked for the
Floyd | whereabouts of her seven wayward sons. As you wove the invisible
Floyd | thread, she slowly and solemnly sapped each one, all the while
Floyd | instructing you on how to avoid dropping unseeable lines.
Floyd |
Floyd | Your lower legs are splattered with mud from the trek through the
Floyd | Mambling Plains.

Teaspoon asks, "Doesn't that mean that we have visible legs, then?"
zarf arrives, full of funk, but no fun. Roger says, "This is off into immediate weirdness, but digging it so far, although I often don't"
Jacqueline asks, "The *pellucid* llama?"
Jacqueline says (to Roger), "It's definitely a switch in tone from the last game."
Teaspoon says, "It means transparent, I think."
Teaspoon says, "we collected invisibility wool from an invisible llama"
Jacqueline says (to tsp), "Yeah. That didn't make sense to me."
Teaspoon says (to Floyd), "x winkerchief"

Floyd | > X WINKERCHIEF
Floyd |
Floyd | The Winkerchief is a branded wipe cloth that perfectly wipes clean any
Floyd | surface. It's good for about a dozen uses before it loses its
Floyd | porousness.
Floyd |
Floyd | >
Teaspoon says, "ah, so we can wipe our legs with this."
Jacqueline says, "We must find secrets."
Doug says, "oh huh, I thought you played this already."
Jacqueline says (to Doug), "I was thinking so as well, but it's not in the transcript list."
Doug says, "this is a pretty long/difficult game"
Doug says, "really good though."
Jacqueline says, "And now that I'm playing it I don't recall it."
Teaspoon says, "I've not played it."
Teaspoon says (to Floyd), "x somnuliser"
Floyd ]  Leathery Cliff                                     0/7 secrets found
Floyd | >
Floyd | > X SOMNULISER
Floyd |
Floyd | The somnuliser works as a small bomb. If thrown, it emits spores of
Floyd | untraceable potentiality, making it praeternaturally likely that
Floyd | anyone coming into contact with the spores will fall asleep with the
Floyd | firm belief that their sleepiness is natural and unnotable. It has but
Floyd | one use, but once activated its spores should propagate through halls
Floyd | throughout the entire house, slowed only as it seeps under the doors.
Floyd | It should incapacitate everyone in the wing, but you'll have to be
Floyd | inside first for it to have an effect.

Floyd | > X ATTUNING SET
Floyd |
Floyd | The set is a twist of lead rods that can be used to attune
Floyd | the possibilities inherent in things in favour of the holder.
Floyd |
Floyd | A gust of wind blows across the cliff, flapping a loose sheet of skin.
Floyd |
Floyd | >
Teaspoon says, "urgh"
Jacqueline asks, "urgh?"
Teaspoon says, "loose skin? That's an...unpleasant image."
Teaspoon says, "I guess they *meant* leathery cliff"

Jacqueline says, "An... invisible suit? So I'm not sure if we look like a llama or not."
Jacqueline says, "Calf-deep is pretty damn deep to be in the mud."
Teaspoon says, "I think we look like a pair of waddling mud-covered legs, and the rest of us is invisible."
Teaspoon says (to Floyd), "x mud"

Floyd | > X MUD
Floyd |
Floyd | The mud stretches from the cliff to the horizon, it constantly shifts
Floyd | and cracks like a great foul sea where nothing wholesome grows. It's
Floyd | even caked up the legs of your llama-suit.

Jacqueline says, "This was nominated for setting, best puzzles, and best puzzle, btw."
Doug says, "depends on how big our calves are"

Floyd |
Floyd | The cliff feels warm to touch as you pull down the flaking sheet of
Floyd | skin. You have to stretch as the tear of skin is taller than you. The
Floyd | whole sheet lands with a soft squelch in the mud at the base of the
Floyd | cliff.

Iria asks, "What game is this, anyway?"
Teaspoon says, "sub rosa"
Teaspoon says, "I think this is our stop"
Teaspoon says, "so to speak."
Jacqueline says, "So the single puzzle for which it was nominated for Best Puzzle is 'the skull,' and now we have a piece of skin. Maybe we're going to construct a body out of parts, like some Groover game. I hope so."

Teaspoon says, "but maybe it's part of a huge body...dunno"
Jacqueline says, "Aw."
Jacqueline asks, "The cliff... creaks?"

Teaspoon asks, "so, shall we go?"

Floyd | The Blue Rose Garden
Floyd | The Blue Rose Garden of the Destine clan is one of the Five
Floyd | Transcendent Gardens and is comprised of a single rose bush grown to
Floyd | magnificent proportions. Its offshoots form a prickled boundary,
Floyd | enclosing the garden. At precise intervals, blue roses grow with
Floyd | uniform fecundity. From a rockery in the centre of the garden, from
Floyd | which all the offshoots stem, is the core bush and from it grows a
Floyd | pristine bouquet.
Floyd |
Floyd | The Destine mansion rises up to the west. A maze of flowers are
Floyd | reflected in the tooth-glass dome of the greenhouse, its sliding door
Floyd | almost completely flush with the unpanelled pane.

Floyd | The Blue Rose Garden is comprised of a single rose bush grown to

Floyd |
Floyd | You remember your lessons when you were studying to become the
Floyd | Orloger; Counter Cur taught you everything you didn't want to know
Floyd | about sums.
Floyd |
Floyd | "In order to calculate the area of a bounded plain, you must find the
Floyd | length of the cross product of the vectors of its 2 adjacent sides,"
Floyd | he said.
Floyd |
Floyd | You didn't see why you couldn't just ask the letter-beast doing the
Floyd | binding, but you humoured the Counter at the time.
Floyd |
Floyd | "Well," Counter Cur continued, "if B (Bx, By, Bz) and C (Cx, Cy, Cz)
Floyd | are the vectors of its 2 adjacent sides and A (Ax, Ay, Az) is the
Floyd | cross product, then you must find A = B x C using this formula:
Floyd |
Floyd | "Ax = By Cz - Bz Cy
Floyd | Ay = Bz Cx - Bx Cz
Floyd | Az = Bx Cy - By Cx."
Floyd |
Floyd | "My memory is good, but there's got to be a better way of memorising
Floyd | this," you said.
Floyd |
Floyd | "You will notice," Cur continued, "that if you replace x with y, y
Floyd | with z and z with x you can get from the first line to the second line
Floyd | and from the second line to the third line."
Floyd |
Floyd | "So all I need to do is remember the first line, right?" you said.
Floyd |
Floyd | "Precisely," said Cur, "and you do that by remembering the handy
Floyd | mnemonic 'xyzzy'."
Floyd |
Floyd | And that's how you cal... wait a minute, you didn't spend seventeen
Floyd | years preparing to break into the Confessor's mansion just to find out
Floyd | the area of the plain.

Floyd | stem, is the core bush and from it grows a pristine bouquet.

Floyd | Greenhouse
Floyd | The greenhouse of the Destine mansion is a tooth-glass dome. The glass

Floyd | on a long plant bed.
Floyd |
Floyd | On the east of the greenhouse an open sliding door leads back out to
Floyd | the rose garden. An open blue door leads west into the house.

Floyd | You know that the spread of the spores from the somnuliser must be

Floyd | across the greenhouse.
Floyd |
Floyd | The greenhouse of the Destine mansion is a tooth-glass dome. The glass
Floyd | reflects back the light and heat of a microscopic sun that slowly
Floyd | orbits a huge grosvair tree. A variety of plants grow, bloom and die
Floyd | on a long plant bed.
Floyd |
Floyd | On the east of the greenhouse an open sliding door leads back out to
Floyd | the rose garden. An open blue door leads west into the house.
Floyd |
Floyd | Hard green fruit bodies hang from the hayberry bush. The banberry
Floyd | shrub is crinkled and grey with mould. The plant bed is thick with
Floyd | spindleweed.

Floyd | You've nearly reached the sliding door when you feel a gentle soothing

Floyd |
Floyd | Kitchen
Floyd | Confessor Destine's personal kitchen is small: certainly less than
Floyd | half an acre of countertops. In the centre, by the refresher, is a

Floyd |
Floyd | The somnuliser works as a small bomb. If thrown, it emits spores of

Floyd | anyone coming into contact with the spores will fall asleep with the
Floyd | firm belief that their sleepiness is natural and unnotable. It has but

DavidW has had his fill of playing for now, and goes back to the Lounge.
Teaspoon disappears through an invisible gap in the MUD. You think you may have heard the sounds of chatting before the gap closed again. DavidW says, "Hopefully I won't oversleep next time."
Teaspoon asks, "how long do you think it'll take?"
DavidW says, "oh, hard to say, but I think the two most difficult puzzles were right near the start, getting into the grounds without muddy limbs, and using the somnu-thing the right way."
Teaspoon says, "Well, that's one down, one to go. Good to know."

Floyd |
Floyd | On the east of the greenhouse an open sliding door leads back out to

Floyd | > LOOK UP BENINGNELL
Floyd |
Floyd | Beningnell was the fictitious title holder of the Confessordom for at
Floyd | least thirty years before Grover Destine nobly convinced the Theocracy
Floyd | that Beningnell had in fact never existed. Prior to this, he was
Floyd | considered to be a quiet figure who had the good fortune of being both
Floyd | invisible and incorporeal. How this non-person came to be Confessor is
Floyd | unknown but the revelation of his non-existence was the key factor in
Floyd | Grover Destine's ascension to the title of Confessor.
Floyd |
Floyd | It all seems so clear now. Confessor Beningnell was a real person,
Floyd | although he may well have been invisible and incorporeal: some of the
Floyd | best people are. Grover Destine, eager for his position, performed the
Floyd | Strictures of Forgetting on Beningnell, uncanonising him, erasing his
Floyd | existence. Worse than simply killing the Confessor, he made it so he
Floyd | had never truly existed. This must be the Confessor's most dangerous
Floyd | secret.

Floyd |
Floyd | Firstly the bronze framed picture: Framed by bronze leaf is a diorama
Floyd | of the Chief Destine, founder of his clan. In the painting he is a
Floyd | wearing a purple cloak and wielding an ornate dagger that is touched
Floyd | up against an egg of purest lead. In the background is a surprised
Floyd | looking goose.
Floyd |
Floyd | Then the iron framed picture: In the painting, the Confessor himself
Floyd | is standing regally in his purple cloak. On one shoulder, eating out
Floyd | of a raised palm, is a young quailer.
Floyd |
Floyd | And finally the silver framed picture: This is a painting of a young
Floyd | woman with a distinctive smile. She is dressed for the Hex wars, with
Floyd | a swine-net and a mace. The title underneath the portrait reads:
Floyd | Confidante Destine.

Floyd | From feet to appendages to head, your form is completely covered by a

Floyd |
Floyd | Only the greatest of hunters can track down and capture a pellucid
Floyd | llama. They are invisible and silent, they emit no scent and move too
Floyd | fast to be easily touched. Fortunately for you, the greatest of
Floyd | hunters are rarely the best treasure-keepers. You had three pellucid
Floyd | llamas rustled from the pleasure gardens of Leaguer Mel, who's
Floyd | life-work was the capturing of a herd from the outskirts of the
Floyd | Boundless Plains. The rustlers (Carminative Brown, Sow 17, and
Floyd | She-Who-Regrets) believed the plan was their own and even saved you
Floyd | the trouble of the shearing. Each of them inevitably were found by
Floyd | Leaguer Mel's probability-hounds, along with the rustled llamas. But
Floyd | you fleeced the fleeces from them long before then.

Floyd | > LOOK UP SWINE IN FACTIONAL
Floyd |
Floyd | The Swinery is a breeding conglomerate that produces swine. Each swine
Floyd | is given a unique number from a register when they are born. When a
Floyd | swine dies, their number is returned to the register. A swine is
Floyd | considered to be the same person as all prior incarnations with the
Floyd | same number. It is for this reason that swine do not make use of
Floyd | mortality refreshers.

Floyd |
Floyd | (first taking The Last Days of The Red Letter)
Floyd | You open up The Last Days of The Red Letter.
Floyd |
Floyd | This slim volume tells of the downfall of a famous letter-beast in the
Floyd | Divergent Plains. The letter-beast laid claim to the Plains, marking
Floyd | out edges with his endless burgundy tail. Like all letter-beasts, he
Floyd | sublet his territory in exchange for victuals and favours. His
Floyd | downfall came by the cleaving points of the Knights Linear. The book
Floyd | describes their first encounter:
Floyd |
Floyd | "I will lease you all the land that you could possibly need, fair
Floyd | Knights, or I am not a letter-beast!" said the Red Letter, with
Floyd | sincerity uncommon in his kind.
Floyd | "We accept your word as it stands," said the Knights Linear evenly.
Floyd |
Floyd | But the Knights' need was great and in their attempts to halt the
Floyd | machinations of the Leminscaters they needed much land to grow lead
Floyd | groves. Soon all the land they'd let from the Red Letter had been
Floyd | filled and yet their lead rod requirements were nowhere near met.
Floyd |
Floyd | "What can I do for you, fine and fair knights?" asked the Red-Letter,
Floyd | smiling with all his sincere mouths and frowning with all his
Floyd | insincere mouths.
Floyd | "Letter-beast," said the Knights Linear, "our need is greater than the
Floyd | land that you have let us."
Floyd | The Red Letter opened his mouths for making deals and closed his
Floyd | mouths for making idle talk. "Even knights, I could easily let you
Floyd | more land for an appropriate price."
Floyd | "You misunderstand," said the Knights, "you said that you would lease
Floyd | us all the land that we could possibly need or you are not a
Floyd | letter-beast. Our need has outstripped the land that you have leased
Floyd | us, and yet you are still a letter-beast."
Floyd |
Floyd | And so, of course, the Knights Linear were entitled by their creed to
Floyd | undo any breakers of oaths. Upon that day they bisected the great
Floyd | beast and took all his land, evicting all other tenants and selling
Floyd | his great hide in millions of rectangular strips. Though the Knights
Floyd | Linear had merely acted justly, they gained the unearned favour of all
Floyd | other letter-beasts, who always rejoice when one of their kind is
Floyd | felled, and the unsurprising enmity of what was to become known as the
Floyd | Divergent Diaspora: a collective formed by many of the Red Letter's
Floyd | landless former tenants who mark their old landlord's demise each year
Floyd | with renewed vows to destroy the Knights Linear.

Floyd | Greenhouse
Floyd | The greenhouse of the Destine mansion is a tooth-glass dome. The glass
Floyd | reflects back the light and heat of a microscopic sun that slowly
Floyd | orbits a huge grosvair tree. A variety of plants grow, bloom and die
Floyd | on a long plant bed.
Floyd |
Floyd | On the east of the greenhouse an open sliding door leads back out to
Floyd | the rose garden. An open blue door leads west into the house.
Floyd |
Floyd | The hayberry bush is bare, its leaves small and its branches stubby.
Floyd | Hard red berries hang like droplets from the banberry shrub. The
Floyd | spindleweed leaves are long and thin.

Floyd | floor and ground into a fine powder and from there used to make blue
Floyd | dyes.
Floyd |
Floyd | Subsea is a blue dye! The Confessor has a pot of blue dye beneath his
Floyd | famous rose garden, that's why they're blue! No, more than that, the

Floyd | The Blue Rose Garden
Floyd | The Blue Rose Garden is comprised of a single rose bush grown to

Floyd | stem, is the core bush and from it grows a pristine bouquet.

Floyd | Most of the Confessor's secrets are bound to be in his wing of the
Floyd | mansion: you've got to find a way in.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | -> You have discovered that the Confessor Destine no longer has a
Floyd | pellucid llama: his most valuable possession is not in his possession.
Floyd | -> You have learnt that Confessor Destine usurped his title by causing
Floyd | Confessor Beningnell to be uncanonised, removing him from veridical
Floyd | existence.
Floyd | -> You have discovered that the famous blue rose of the Destine clan
Floyd | is caused by the rose drinking water dyed subsea blue.
Floyd | -> You have seen the Confessor's tattoo proclaiming him a member, at
Floyd | one time or other, of the Lemniscaters.
Floyd | -> You have unveiled the Confessor's secret stash of lead-sweetened
Floyd | port, a strictly forbidden substance.
Floyd | -> You have discovered the Confessor has consumed the flesh of swines.
Floyd | -> You have found out that the scattered remains of the prior heir to
Floyd | the Destine Clan were in the Confessor's dungeon.
Floyd |
Floyd |
Floyd | You've now found all seven deceits of Confessor Destine. Now all that
Floyd | remains is to ensure that everything is back where you found it before
Floyd | leaving through the intersection.

Floyd | A wave of shock ripples across the theocrats. You lay before your
Floyd | peers the seven deceits of Confessor Destine, each time raising your
Floyd | voice above the outraged cries of the crowd. Throughout, the Confessor
Floyd | remains silent, coldly assessing you.
Floyd |
Floyd | "But do not take my word," you say, "search the Destine mansion and
Floyd | there all the evidence you will find.
Floyd |
Floyd | "Search all you like, you will find nothing of the sort," the
Floyd | Confessor says with a slither of a smile. You suspect he discovered
Floyd | his home was broken into and took steps to conceal what might have
Floyd | been discovered.
Floyd |
Floyd | And right enough, no evidence of serious ill-doing was found although
Floyd | he had no time to procure a new llama and the rose cuttings taken
Floyd | turned white when grown elsewhere. While still the Confessor, all
Floyd | trust in Destine had eroded and a faction installed his absent
Floyd | grandfather the Doge as head of the clan.
Floyd |
Floyd | And as for you? Your position in the Theocracy is no longer tenable,
Floyd | sneakthieves are not untrusted no matter their motives. As they drive
Floyd | you out the chamber you cast your eyes across Sinua: if it takes
Floyd | seventeen more years, you will be back and back for good.

Floyd | Congratulations on leaving no trace. Throughout the game there are
Floyd | multiple hints that the protagonist is not a human. They are in fact a
Floyd | giant ant with opposable digits, best known in the theocracy as the
Floyd | Orloger. Their role in the theocracy was to count the turning of the
Floyd | ages (to prevent the Lead Age from ending and a Golden Age from
Floyd | arising). Since the Theocracy of Sinua successfully prevents the ages
Floyd | from turning (by way of various rituals), the Orloger doesn't have an
Floyd | active role. Like any theocrat, they can submit and vote on measures
Floyd | in the Holy Chamber; but like most, there's not much expectation that
Floyd | they actually will (in part due to the power the Confessor has over
