Giving the estate a cast and a host

Nine distinct characters, a voiced host and a score that follows the match.

The playtest has nine original characters. Each has a portrait and a name you’ll see in chat. Allegiance is assigned separately, so the Blackmailer can be Loyal and the Guardian can be a Betrayer.

I’ve also been building a voiced host and a score that changes with the phase. The Arrival sounds like being welcomed into a grand estate. The Scramble picks up the pace. At the Roundtable, the music gives the host room to announce the vote and let the verdict sit for a beat.
