What if 15 gaming characters found themselves in a small town? What if they all recognized each other's games? What if they were forced to be an avatar in a game of mafia? What if you were controlling one of them?
If you want answers, this is the place to get them.
1) This is not an official game, therefore titles will not be awarded.
2) Please label night actions, last wills and death notes as "Night Action", "Last Will" and "Death Note" respectively. This keeps things neat and insures your actions and letters will be properly handled.
3) After 36 hours if a player has not posted I will prod them for inactivity. If they do not reply or post within 18 hours they will be replaced. If I prod them again, they will be replaced.
4) Players will have no whispers!
5) I do not tolerate game throwing. You will be blacklisted from future games if you attempt to do this. Refer here for more on that and the general rules. This can include "Jesting".
6) Keep it in the game thread. Do not use anything offsite such as automatic coders, please do not use other events outside of the game that players are not privy to as a means to secretly communicate. IE: "Hey, target the person who I told you the name of yesterday in a pm."
7) Please don't avidly spam the thread. No one can get a word in edgewise and it becomes a mess if everyone is doing it.
8) Just have fun and be respectful. Do I really need to tell you this?
9) All actions that do not have a charge are compulsive, meaning they must be used.

"War has changed" - Snake in his grumpiest of voices while lighting a cigarette.

Altaïr
You are Altaïr
"I have seen what comes of those who raise themselves above others." - Altaïr explaining death.
Each night you may send someone a letter, this letter has a maximum character limit of 1000. This player is also put on your contract list. No more than 2 players may on your contract list at any time. If three players are on it at a single point in time the first player who was sent a letter (the one who has been on the list the longest) will be bumped off. You may also take a night to remove someone from your contract list. Once during the game you may choose to assassinate all characters on your contracts piercing any protection aside from prolonging or redirections. You cannot send letters after you choose to assassinate.
Robin
You are Robin
"It's time to tip the scales!" - Robin being the most useful character ever.
During the day you may choose to use your tome named "sensor", at the end of the day you'll know how many town members voted on the player lynched. You may have great tactical knowledge, however you forgot to stock up and your tome only has two uses left. This is used even during a nolynch.
John Marston
You are John Marston
"My side ain't chosen. My side was given." - John Marston
Once per game you may fire off your guns and call for a duel. Only you and a player of your choice may be voted for the remainder of the day.
Additionally 3 players will receive this line at the bottom of their rolecard:
You've been selected to be a Mafia member, your goal is to destroy the town and those who oppose you. You may speak to your follow mafia members at night and one of you may sacrifice your night action to perform a kill each night. If there is only one mafia member left you will not have to sacrifice your action.
1 player will receive the following line at the bottom of their rolecard:
You've been selected to be the Serial Killer, eliminate every other video game character that gets in your way by killing one player each night on top of your usual actions. This is undetectable by the Tracker and Lookout, they will instead see your other action should you have one. You are immune at night.
1 player will receive one of the following lines at the bottom of their rolecard:
You're the Jester! To win you must be lynched, and upon winning you may choose to take a player who voted on you to the grave the following night.
You're the Executioner! To win you must get your target ____ lynched! Should they die before they be lynched you will become a Jester. You are immune to an attack once.
Every other player will receive this line at the bottom of their rolecard:
You are a Town member, eliminate the mafia and serial killer by any means necessary. You form the majority at the beginning.
Special Rules
Players who join will go through a special "draft phase" where they may select their roles in an order sorted by a game. The way the game works is that players pm me two single digit numbers (2,3 or 6,7 or any combination). The player with the lowest first number selects first, however if another player selected the same number you go to the below all the other players who don't share a similar first number on the list and are ordered by the second number of who is higher/lower. Should three people choose the same number they will be placed lower than the doubles and so on. Should all numbers be the same then there would be a re-roll for just those players. Example:
1,6 2,6 8,3 3,7 1,2 3,1 9,7 4,2 7, 2 3,1 1,3 2,3
would look like this sorted:
4,2
7, 2
8,3
9,7
2,3 2,6
1,2 1,3 1,6
3,7 3,1 (re-roll) 3,1 (re-roll)
You select your role publically after the ordering has been posted in the game thread, as a result everyone's role is know from the beginning of day 1. Alignments are the only thing hidden.
Swordsworth (Shot by the Mafia Night 1, Town) IAmAMunchlax (Stabbed by the Serial Killer Night 1, Town) Santa07 (Lynched Day 2, Jester) K1llthestory (Stabbed by the Serial Killer and Haunted Night 2, Town) TheNinja476 (Lynched Day 3, Town) Rockfire (Shot by the Mafia Night 2 - Died Day 3, Town) Deleter (Shot by the Mafia Night 3, Town) Nellyfox (Stabbed by the Serial Killer Night 3, Town)
IAmAMunchlax will post, selecting his role and saying any introductory line or quip, then the next player in the order posts. Please do not post out of line, once all players have selected their roles the game will begin and you may post regularly.
My devious plot picking a high number did not work out. I guess I'll take Monster Hunter.

Cakez takes the game in another level, and we will be blessed if we ever see a player with his skill and passion for the game again. gobln breaks records. FurCakez breaks the rules.
