If you have read the Series of Unfortunate Events, and I sincerely hope that you have not, then you are already familiar with the tale of the Baudelaire orphans, and with all the struggles they had to go through. Struggles that have been distressing and unnerving, upsetting and tiresome, taxing and tedious, exhausting and distraught, and horribly, horribly unfortunate. They include such scary and unpleasant things as a man with hooks instead of hands, a deadly mushroom, an island oppressed by lies and mind-oppressing substances, countless horrible fires, and... Count Olaf.
This Count Olaf is a horrible person who has been after the Baudelaire children since the very first fire that has devoured their parents' home and lives. One fiendish scheme after the next has he concocted to get his dirty hands on the enormous fortunate which the Baudelaire's parents have left them behind, and time and time again they have fought back, always managing to stay alive, and to put a dent through his plans in the process.
But even the most devilish of schemes Olaf could have thought of would pale in comparison to the tragedies that I could tell you about now-- or, if that is not actually true, then such would be an oddity, considering that the Series is a supposed children's book. Tragedies that involve an underground organization far more malicious than V.F.D, that include murder, deception, duels, and even collective lynches! Tragedies so horrible that I see no reason at all to tell you about them.
And thus, indeed, I will not. What, did you think this game would include flavor just because of the opening post? I can do whatever I want. Although, of course, all those players who won't actually read this and only remember that something was written will probably except flavor now and be surprised if it is not there. Oh well. Maybe I will drop random one-liners above vote counts or something. You know, I really wanted to write flavor about this series, because it's pretty great; I had it planed, even. I just don't think it'd work. It's not really suited for it, even though there are plenty of characters to use. Well, anyways. Have fun playing!
