Mafia of the Raptured (Game Over!)

[Vi]

Cue mood music.

Years ago, a force of sheer evil razed the world. None could stand against it and live or remain uncorrupted. There was no hope for anyone, except to flee. And the ancients did flee - they cut themselves completely off from the world below by sundering continents from the earth and taking to the skies, where they were forced to survive with a portion of the resources they had - arable land, water reservoirs, personal space.

These scarcities changed the leftover politics of the old world, but not for the better. Far from being a paradise, fights - so many of which ended in murder - broke out as soon everyone was sure they were safe from outsiders. And so while many people split off into gangs and quarreled, some tried to escape, building airships and fleeing to the few untainted mountaintops, where they hoped to raise more landmasses and start over. Yet each time they did this, and each time they promised to make their continent the one committed to peace, something always happened to cause them to fail. Decades and even a few centuries passed, but this one result never wavered.

The people of the skyborne world, hardly distinguishable from those in the ruin below, had given themselves a multitude of chances to work together to promote a new and unlikely age of prosperity. All of them had been wasted. Divided, embittered, and without the finely-honed means of killing that those on the ground had made their specialty, they would simply fall apart if an outside force cleanly assaulted them. But until now, that hasn't been a concern.

The geomancers lifted one more mountain valley high above the earth, trying once again to struggle against the nature of all that lives. Two representatives of these mages flew to their terraformation, which they called Thera, to see how suitable it would be for habitation. But their departure was delayed by harsh winds... By the time they were able to reach the airborne island, they were surprised and somewhat dismayed to see that it was already populated. Some of them were optimists colonizing the island in hopes of another chance, some of them were wayfarers stopping wherever their travels took them, and a few of them were there when the area was sundered - beings from the malevolent nether realm who should never have been taken to the skies. The underworld, and all the evil and despair that its inhabitants embodied, were now one step away from grasping what had so narrowly eluded it before.

In a world full of dark hours, the darkest was being heralded. Only an unthinkable plan could possibly save this world...

General Rules:

This isn't just

any

ruleset - this is actually a Vi ruleset. You've probably never seen one before.

Pregame:

You will be given a Role PM. Confirm by sending back your alignment, please. Make sure you do not have any questions about your role before confirming.

Day:

The Day functions as normal. You may No Lynch if 50% of the players vote for No Lynch. You may lynch with a majority of the votes.

Please note that due to the potential for very quick days in this game, I will try to prod at 48 hours of inactivity and replace at 72 - and I may have to shorten this later. Unless you specifically coordinate with me, I will not make exceptions for V/LA.

Twilight:

There is nothing special about Twilight in this game. Rainbow Dash x Fluttershy is the one true ship, and the greater weight of the canonical evidence

proves

it.

Night:

Nights last for 48 hours. If you did not post in the 24 hours before the end of the previous Day, I will prod you to make sure you are in the game.

If you don't respond to the prod, I will replace you.

Illegalities:

As a reminder, you are not allowed to:
*talk about this game outside the thread except where expressly permitted
*impersonate the mod and/or use the mod's formatting (bolded italicized

gray

)
*use cryptography, invisible text, or other ways of sending robustly hidden messages
*quote your Role PM, to include using specifics about its format or time stamp to your advantage
*edit/delete posts or speak after death sans "bah" posts as described below
*post links to QuickTopics
*do other obviously underhanded things not listed here, including things you may not think are underhanded but others will probably disagree about

This ruleset is designed under the assumption that you know what is acceptable. If you aren't sure, ask. If you fall afoul of what is expected, that's your problem.

"Bah" posts:

You may only make a "bah" post within 25 posts of the announcement of your death, and it may only contain the letter 'f', as many times as you like, uppercase or lowercase but not both, with no spaces.

Other:

*I am never wrong. Unless, of course, reality has warped, making me wrong. Please point occasions where this may have occurred out to me so that I may kick reality's ass.
*This game is not obligated to make sense until it is over. By joining this game you are expressing consent to play with any rules, roles, and fellow players that may be in the game -

and you will like it

.
*Do not try to upset the mod. While killing and blacklisting everyone responsible is not considered the best modding practice most of the time, I would like to point out that it's still an option.

Hawt New Game Mechanic rules:

1.

Apocalypse ~Memento Mori~.

When a specific role dies, the game will shift to a special phase called

Apocalypse

. When this happens, the game format will shift like so:
*The game will become Instant Night.
*Abilities other than Night actions will no longer function.
*Deadlines will become 72 hours long.
2.

Battery-Powered Deadlines.

Deadlines in this game (outside

Apocalypse

) are measured via a meter that starts at 100% and counts down each real-time day by a varying amount. The amount is based on true activity. If the meter reaches 0%, the Day immediately ends.

-----

This is what a sample Role PM would look like.

~NAME~

Mmm~♪ Hmm~♪ I like to hum to myself.

Welcome to

Mafia of the Raptured

. You are an

Altaria

(from Pokémon), a fanciful fluffy flying thing that roosts wherever you can among the soaring continents. People will still try to hurt you because they're

mean

, but that's why you have wings and can go places where your ribbony feathers won't be ruffled.

You are, of course, an innocent cloud bird aligned with the

Town

. You may use your poofy wings to help you, but it won't do anything.

[-or-]

Your innate Natural Cure ability makes it so that if you replace out of this game, people will immediately forget everything scummy you did.

You win when there are no remaining threats to Thera.

Please confirm via PM with your alignment. I wish you the best of luck.

Mod note: Flips as "Town Vanilla".

[Vi]

Role PMs are now out. Please confirm via the method dictated in your Role PM.

[Vi]

As you get ready to beat the crap out of each other (the generally accepted means of saying "hello" in this continuity), you hear a message booming across the land.

And now, on with the show.

Poo knew fully well how cruel destiny could be. He was prepared for this; he had trained his whole life to best the rigors of mortality and become a monk capable of saving the world.

But he never knew how to communicate with people outside Dalaam, and so he was helpless to save himself when he was shoveled up by an angry mob and pitched over the cliff of the floating island.

--- Antagon --- Poo (from EarthBound),

Town Sharing Ascetic

--- Eliminated Day 1...

--- Antagon --- Demise (from The Legend of Zelda),

[Vi]

Night 1 will continue for a little while longer. Please watch warmly.

[Vi]

Only twelve people gather the next morning. One of the missing personae, royalty from a distant realm, was nowhere to be found.

--- Zachrulez --- Mallow (from the Mario series),

Town Vanilla

--- Sublimed Night 1.

And the other one was definitely someplace to be found. Minus a rather vital chunk.

--- enomis --- Infel (from Ar Tonelico),

Town Cultilante

--- Impaled Night 1...

And with that swan song, a shooting star could be seen falling through the sky... The satellite Infel Phira.
You feel the removal of an invisible force that permeated the island's presence...

...and then a feeling of vulnerability as waves of foreboding flood over you.


Get ready.

Hey everyone.

I'm not the type of mod who makes games not-fun for their own selfish benefit, but I will have the opportunity to end this game properly late tomorrow night. I'll do my best to ensure it's worthwhile. See you then.

And so the remaining two players shoved fferyllt off the cliff of Thera.

...But fferyllt's character can fly, so one of the two helped things along by warping space into a spike that pierced her heart. Much better.

--- fferyllt --- Rainbow Dash (from My Little Pony)*,

--- Had a Heart Attack Day 7.

And all that was left was the reporter, who promptly thought with her wings and sped the hell away.

--- Katsuki --- Aya Syameimaru (from Touhou Project),

Town Vanilla

--- Fled in Endgame.

The last one standing let her run, instead using that effort to up a dimensional rift. From it oozed a strange purple mass that began to engulf everything in front of it in an inexorable wave.

Well, civilization had a good run.

~sword_of_omens~

The time has come for your planet... No! The time has come for the ENTIRE UNIVERSE to bow down to me. And for being such a big help in all of this, your planet gets to go first!

Welcome to

Mafia of the Raptured

. You are

Magolor

(from the Kirby series). You've found yourself a very pretty crown and swooped in like magic on your beautiful iridescent starship after receiving a beacon from this island. Oh, and to get any misconceptions out of the way, that beacon was from some really nasty people who were requesting assistance taking out the defenders of this planet. You yourself have designs of your own for the future of these weaklings, but for now you're willing to play along against a common enemy.

While not technically one of them, you are aligned with the horrors of the

Abyss

. You may use your clap-on magic to help you, but it won't do anything. You can, however, rip interdimensional rifts to chat with the other players aligned with the

Abyss

here while the chat thread is open. While you are alive, the chat thread will remain open during the Day as well. You may also distort the fabric of space to perform your factional Night-kill. Kill flavor is "impaled". Last, you may request a safeclaim with the flavor and abilities of your choice; the moderator will return this to you at their earliest convenience.

You win when the

Abyss

is the only faction remaining, or nothing can prevent the same.

If you feel you need a safeclaim, try this.

~sword_of_omens~

I'm so, so thankful for all of your help! High five, low five, all that.

Welcome to

There is supposedly an item of inestimable value to you on this world, but when you landed on this continent, you found you couldn't slip by the natives to search for it. Ah, well. It seems only right to help them along their way so you can continue looking for your precious keepsake...

You are

Tarhalindur, Captain Hazama over Mafia

. There isn't actually any reason for you to be here, and given that it would be extremely hand-wavey to suggest that you used an NOL airship to take you up to the skies, your presence on Thera can best be explained as "magic". (Well, okay, it's a continuum shift caused by a random outcome of cyclic time and--look, it's magic.) But while you're here, you may as well go through with your preferred means of alleviating boredom - destroying civilization. I mean, it's there, so why not?

You may use your AGGRESSIVE MIND GAMES to help you. But, they won't do anything (during the Night, anyway). You may also use rifts in the continuum to speak with the other players aligned with the

here. In addition, you may summon hungry coils to perform the Night-kill. Kill flavor is "succumbed to despair". You may request a safeclaim with the flavor and abilities of your choice; the moderator will return this to you at their earliest convenience.

And some mod comments...

This game was a long time in the making. Several years ago, someone I know - a huge Akiko Shikata fan - showed me a link of a video he had been playing on loop for the past few days, along with a generously long explanation of what it meant. So I listened to it, and then I started looping it, too.

That video was more or less the one attached to Infel's flip. I really liked the concept behind the song and wanted to try to incorporate it into a Mafia game somehow, but took forever to find a way to do it. In the end, the answer was to run a game about her role - it's too strong to be mixed in with other power roles, plus it would dilute the "whoa, cool" factor. Playing into it, I decided to make it a "protect the power role" game - no, not with a Doctor, but via Day play. You know, the kind of people-shouldn't-massclaim-Day-1 game that Themes should be.

The rest of the Town side of the setup followed pretty quickly from that. The Town Doublevoter was there to cause confusion in the event that the Cultilante was incompetent enough to give themselves away with their hidden extra vote. Syryana did about as well as he could under the circumstances with it. The Apocalypse mechanic was purely to hasten the game along once Infel died (which I totally bet would happen N1, and it did), and I think most of us are grateful for it now - I don't think the game would have turned out much differently with more time. Serene and Fia were included as a means of giving Town a small edge in the event of a post-Apocalyptic massclaim, and that worked out exactly as planned. (Calling them Vanilla was a little bastard, as technically Serene wasn't, but I don't think anyone will mind.)

I had exactly zero expectation of the Town figuring out the message I posted at the beginning - but someone enterprising might discern that it was Hymmnos and start asking Ar Tonelico-related inquiries from there. Of course, this probably wouldn't have been a good thing for Town, but hey, icebreaker! (that, for better or worse, no one really mentioned) At least I didn't send that to enomis as his Role PM! Because I would never have thought of doing that... and... um... well, I'm very glad zoraster gave me setup advice here.

Gasp! Schala was Town in this game! And Byakuren wasn't a safeclaim this time! (though I thought about it) OMG breaking mafiascum meta, etc.

The name "Cultilante" is a direct reference to Vigicultist, aka Inquisitor. (I'm coming to like Vigicultist better, as Inquisitor may have been more a just-for-that-game flavor. But hey, no one has complained about Seraph Knight yet.) Whereas the Vigicultist would try to kill someone and then recruit them if they survived, the Cultilante kills them and recruits them if they're

dead

. Obviously gaining access to speak with dead scum is just asking for excellent game-ruining action, so on scum it was just a Vig with no recruitment. The ability to swipe Town voice and vote pretty much nullifies all the downsides of a Vigilante, and in fact is so powerful that if it survived to Day 4 without getting killed, it basically controls the lynch - the scum can't win without killing the Cultilante (or the Cultilante single-handedly destroying the Town on its own).

So one big risk I took with the setup was building it around a particular role, which I'm quite positive I said not to do in one of my guides

buuuuuuut

etc. The other big risk I took was another balancing measure. I gave scum the weakest safeclaims available - two of them had to claim their own role and one got probably the weakest safeclaim I could offer (Poo lives up in the mountains above the clouds, but it implies that he came from below the sky anyway). (As a matter of fact, seeing a

Tarhalindur

role claim

Tarhalindur

and then try to get away with it WAS on my bucket list, and I may have encouraged that this time.~) That worked more or less as planned as well. Incidentally, that was the purpose behind Amrun's role - it had nothing to do with finding the ~special role~ and everything to do with getting them out of hock when massclaim happened. In the end it was kind of pointless, as s_o_o made up his own safeclaim and the others claimed what I gave them, but it was an interesting experiment with a surprising outcome when Amrun claimed the flavor oracle role.

Incidentally, some people - s_o_o and Katsuki, IIRC - got one thing wrong. The characters in this setup were all supporting cast. Kirby in particular didn't fit; if I were choosing a Townie from the Kirby universe it would have been Meta-Knight or Ribbon or Daroach or etc. But, either way.

Play-wise the game was doing fairly well D1 and then disintegrated into blindly feeling ahead. I get the impression Amrun only came under suspicion in LyLo because all the other obvious targets were dead. Three-day Days are rough, but the coasting was what it was.

I don't want to say that enomis got fluke-killed, that he did something wrong (or the scum did something right) to warrant sending the game to Apocalypse so early, and when I find out what that something is I'll let you know. As it stands, the game would have been something very different had he survived to D2. I still want to see it happen, so I'm willing to run a spiritual sequel to this game whenever I get all of my stuff back in order.

Thank you to everyone who supported this game to the end! No matter what I think of my setups, in the end it comes down to you to make them a success. I'm very pleased no one had to be replaced once the game went to lightning speed (yes, including you, Katsuki). I have a game coming up in the Mini Theme queue and it's going to be a Fire Emblem uPick! I've never done one of those before; we'll see how that turns out. If you don't know the flavor, just tell me to pick someone for you and I'll make sure it's cool. The next Large Theme was going to be ehsebano

rarf

, but I think right now piecing together what was on my previous computer is more of a priority. Even so - see you soon, and thank you again!
