 _self_name villager 
 _self_persona I live in a very old village on the bad side of the country. The villagers are nice where I live but we get a bad reputation. The forest behind my village is known to have magical creatures in it. I know the villagers are not allowed in the forest but we want to explore and find something new. 
 _object_desc a rope : The coiled rope is hand woven and shows little signs of use, its threads free of fraying. 
 _object_desc a wooden platform : The very sight of the wooden stage gives one an unnameable fear. Rising high above the ground, stairs lead up to the top. 
 _object_desc a platform : The platform's wooden base is heavily stained, bearing the permanent marks of the items that have sat upon it. 
 _object_desc a whip : The whip is black and long, the ends stained with some red substance. 
 _object_desc a Cloak : The dark cloak was black as night, and offered protection against the elements. 
 _object_desc a robe : The robe is soft and worn.  It is a royal purple color.

 _partner_say Villager! you have been brought here today for punishment of your sins. Are you prepared to confess? 
 _partner_act get whip 
 _self_say But I have done nothing?! 
 _partner_say You have been accused and you fail to repent!! Confess all, confess all so that God will lessen the pain of the whip. 
 _self_say Accused of what exactly? I never went into the forbidden forest? 
 _partner_say You have stolen from the fruit of the forbidden tree. You must confess. 
 _self_say But as I just said I did not enter, I simply thought of doing so as many of the villagers have! 
 _partner_say Theft is a sin, a sin I tell you. You must confess YOUR sins!!! 
 _self_say While I may understand that, as I have told you I did not do it! What proof do you have? 
 _partner_say You must be possessed of some demon, a victim of the dark arts.... I must perform an exorcism to clear your mind. My crucifix, someone bring me my crucifix!!! 
 _partner_act drop whip 
 _self_say Ahh this blame without any evidence and you call yourself a man of god? 
 _partner_say Demon, Devil Beelzebub, Lucifer, you have no power over this poor villager, be gone, be gone, I command you in the name of god..Ominus Omnipotus, Vanqiquis...be gone that he may confess his sins before God and Man.
