Yep, looks like you took the last spot!

Oh, and by the way: Good luck!

It just occurred to me that the title may be a reference to the piano piece Pictures at an Exhibition, composed by Mussorgsky and (most famously) orchestrated by Ravel. If it helps, the movements are:

(recurring) Promenade

1. The Gnome

2. The Old Castle

3. Tuileries

4. Cattle

5. Ballet of Unhatched Chicks

6. Samuel Goldenberg and Schmuÿle

7. Limoges

8. Catacombs

9. Baba Yaga's Hut

10. The Great Gate of Kiev

Yay the game is started! :) I'll help as I have time, since I know who the Sassy is, and I'm excited to see how this goes (if you can't tell).

Is it possible that the sassy's first post was already a clue? I doubt it, but it does seem like the setup to a murder.

Possibly, although it looks like it's usually customary for the sassy to confirm the officers before giving the first clue.

The only significant thing I can think of is that D-R-U-M-E-R would be an anagram of "murder", and there is no actual painting titled Ich Wunder. It translates to "I wonder" from German.
