Old Salem

Old Salem is the fourth round of The Intense Struggle.
==Description==
The contestants are disguised as residents of the village of Salem in the year 1692; the middle of the Salem Witch Trials. The Monitor warns against using their powers, unless they wish to be thought a witch.
==Events==
Everyone gets their identities; Clara is a blacksmith called George Brown, Aph is a teenage girl called Madeline, D'Neya is a demon possessed girl called Betty Parris, B is John Willard; the village constable and Aegis is James Struthers; the village apothecary and heavily implied to be in a relationship with George Brown. Most contestants attempt to adhere to the identity though D'Neya is not best pleased, Aph goes on a killing spree after she goes a bit insane from all the magic that was drained into her in the previous round. Drake Eon talks about objective and subjective reality to The Monitor.
Clara spots Aph (although is it Aph, she doesn't know!) going on a killing spree and tries to protect the people of the town. She is confronted by a man called Reverend Greene who later turns out to be a magician priest part of a secret society, and the witchhunts were organised by a rival secret society to mess with them. Clara tells him what has happened to her, the entire thing with the Grand Battle and all that. Reverend Greene decides to try and move the group on and seeks a diplomatic solution.
B comes across the fight between Clara and Aph and turns into a newt to make everyone believe that Aph is a witch and then a dragon to fight her. Aegis tries to kill D'Neya but doesn't really manage to do so, he throws her onto B as a dragon. He is interrogated by Reverend Greene and is not very cooperative. D'Neya uses her tentacles to ride B like a mechanical bull. Sorry.
Reverend Greene decides to blow up the town but then decides against it and asks The Monitor to make them all go away. He asks that Aph be killed as she is the one doing the most damage. The Monitor prepares a magical essence dispersing sniper shot and takes a shot at Aph. Unfortunately B takes the opportunity to stop being a dragon and D'Neya falls out of the sky straight into the shot. D'Neya is killed and her essence disperses and becomes part of Aph. The Monitor makes Reverend Greene feel guilty for thinking about blowing up the entire town, and rightly so.
