The News Corpse
Revised for Season 17 |
The News Corpse, Midnight Bulletin is the name of the Gazette, a two page newspaper published every day at
Midnight in every
Town. It is a publication signed by
The Crow which contains at least two paragraphs about the affairs that occurred in town the previous day, information about citizens who died and the numbers regarding that night's
Attack. It shows the names of citizens who died the previous days as well as their cause of
Death. The Gazette's page houses the
Great Register, which automatically lists the activities of every citizen inside the town.
In addition to information regarding citizens' losses and attack numbers, the Gazette also states the direction of the winds if the Searchtower has been built.
It should be noted that, in addition to this information, the Gazette also contains randomly-selected flavor text, often with a dark sense of humor and sometimes hints or accusations of citizens' wrong doing (e.g. leaving the gates open or taking items from the bank) . Citizens' names included in this text are selected randomly, so most of the accusations are actually false.
