THREATS TO EARTH
(SCUM):

Spoiler: SCUM FACTIONAL INFO AND EVENTS:
The Scum team is informed that they have a traitor with the flavor of 'Jasper'.
They do not know Jasper's player identity, and Jasper does not know their identities.
The Scum team have a number of Episode Events that they can trigger as a factional action.
Triggering a Scum-Factional Event does not count against a player's maximum number of actions submitted.
Submitting a kill does count as the player's submitted action for the Climax Phase, except when they are the final surviving player in the team.

SEARCH FOR JASPER:
Exposition Event. Activated during the Climax Phase.
Can be triggered after Episode 4, requires +2 Stress or higher.
Priority 1 Event.
Flavor is tied to the Episode, 'Hit the Diamond'.
The following information is private and only known to you:
Returns two pieces of information scanned from the wagon that ends in a lynch:
1. How many 'Gem' characters were on the lynch,
2. If Jasper was on the Lynch.
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread at the end of the Climax phase:
Lowers Stress by 2, towards Slice of Life.

KEEPING IT TOGETHER:
Climax Event. Triggered during the Climax Phase.
Can be triggered after Episode 1, requires -1 Stress or lower.
Can not be triggered during a Season Finale.
Priority 1 Event.
Flavor is tied to the Episodes, 'Keeping it Together' and 'Nightmare Hospital'.
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread at the end of the Climax phase:
All alliances fail to form.
Any players who would have retained an Alliance from the previous phase now instead take one less vote to lynch for the following Episode.
Adds +3 Stress, towards Tragic Destiny.


MESSAGE RECEIVED:
Climax Event. Triggered during the Climax Phase.
Can be triggered at any time, requires -1 Stress or lower.
Priority 1 Event.
Flavor is tied to 'It Could Have Been Great.'
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread at the end of the Climax Phase:
It becomes public knowledge that The Cluster may awaken and destroy Earth.
From this point onward, players may forego taking Climax actions to add a point to a cumulative, hidden score.
If both Players in an Alliance forego their Climax actions, they add 3 points to this score.
Players are told that if the score does not reach a high enough point by the upcoming Season Finale, there will be several deaths.
Adds +4 Stress, towards Tragic Destiny.

THE CLUSTER:
Climax Event. Triggered during the Exposition Phase.
Can be triggered only as a Season Finale Event, requires -3 Stress or lower, 'MESSAGE RECEIVED' must have been triggered.
Priority 1 Event.
Flavor is tied to the Episode, 'Gem Drill'.
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread at the end of the Climax Phase:
If the players have culminated points equal to the total of non-scum members left alive, then this event fails.
In the case that this event fails, subtract -6 Stress, towards Slice of Life.
In the case that this even succeeds, the top two players in the pool of those who submitted points towards 'MESSAGE RECEIVED' will die.
In the case of a tie, break first to the most recent point-submitter, then to a Gem, then to the player with the least amount of text on their rolecard.
In the case that no player submitted any points, the scum team may choose who to kill.

REMOTE DETONATOR:
Can be triggered at any time.
No Stress Requirement. Requires that a player has flavor-claimed in the game thread.
Priority 0. Can be triggered at any time, does not invalidate other events.
Flavor is tied to the Episode 'Message Received'.
The following information is private and only known to you:
By submitting a quote of a player's claimed flavor name, you may instantly kill that player.
This Event will fail if targeting a player whose flavor has been mod-confirmed in the public game thread.
If the claimed flavor is incorrect, the player survives, but this event does not take place and is refunded.
If this kill fails for any reason otherwise, this event takes place and is not refunded.
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread at the end of the Climax Phase:
Increases Stress by 1 towards Tragic Destiny.

RETURN TO EARTH:
Exposition Event. Triggered during the Climax Phase.
Requires -2 Stress or lower. Requires at least one scum member to have died, or 'Search for Jasper' to have been triggered.
Can only be triggered during a Season Finale.
Flavor is tied to the Episodes 'Back to the Moon' and 'Bubbled'.
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread at the start of the Exposition Phase:
Only players in Alliances may vote or take actions.
If the Exposition ends on a scum lynch, the scum team gains an extra kill for the Climax phase.
If the Exposition ends on a town lynch, the entire scumteam is removed from the game and unable to take actions for the Climax phase.

As a note, your provided safe claims are safe in every way except for word count.
You should always claim the wordcount on your actual role PMs, as it will keep you from being caught in any sort of lie.
Wordcounts are used in some very specific cases in this game--as evidenced by some of your Factional Events.

The only other major difference between your actual roles and your fake-claims is if you are a Gem or a Human.
You should always claim what it on your fake-claim in this case. If you claim otherwise, you do so at your own risk.

You may chat here during the Confirmation and Prequel Phases.
Spectators have access to this PT and I will release it once the game is over.
The only PTs that are not spectated-and-released by default are Hydra PTs made for this game.

Fuck. I had such a great streak of being town.
As the last rays of sunlight fade, one killer chases another through the tangled madness of the city.
A flash of steel announces the presence of his quarry.
The stage is set.
The night explodes.

Alright, so like...let's share what we can do..:p

Army, The Ruby That Keeps Punching Things
Image
Hi-yah!
You are aligned with the Scum Faction. You are a Gem.
Why I oughta razzle-frazzle your...

If you are in an alliance with a player and they decide to ally differently, you may cause all of their actions to fail.
Each Climax phase, you may dedicate your action towards continuing this effect.
This ability may only ever affect a single player at any given time.
If you change targets or stop using this ability, you will be unable to use this ability on your previous target until you ally with them and trigger these effects again.

Strike Three!!

During the Season Finale, if you hammer a player, that player is killed--no effect may keep them alive in any way.

EVENT:
Beach-a-Palooza!

EPISODE EVENT: Exposition Only--Activate this ability during the Climax Phase.
PRIORITY: 0
REQUIREMENTS: +1 Stress or Higher
Tied to the Flavor of the episode "Sadie's Song."
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread:
If this event is triggered, the Exposition Phase begins with this event and locks the public game thread.
For 48 hours, all players may submit any target player to star in the 'Beach-a-Palooza' event.
Every time a player is picked by another player, it counts as one point towards the picked player's score.
Every time a player picks a player in an alliance with them, it counts as two points towards the picked player's score.
If a player picks themselves, it counts as three points towards their score.
Scum picks are only worth .5, 1, and 1.5 points, respectively.
If there are any draws, I will break the tie towards the player with more words in their role PM.
It will be revealed how many points each of the top 3 point-winners have earned.
The winning player will have their flavor revealed publicly to the game.
Scum players will have their fake-claim flavor revealed publicly.
The winning player will be able to privately select one of three fabulous prizes:
1. One-shot kill immunity, consumed when next targeted by a kill.
2. One-shot Climax-phase investigate a target to see if they are capable of killing a player.
3. One-shot Climax-phase mass-redirect, which causes all other abilities to redirect to the user.

Let's move out, soldiers!

You are aligned with
Threats to Earth
.
In order to win the game, your faction must equal or exceed the number of other surviving players left alive.
In order to win the game, at least one Threat to Earth player must be alive.


Sadie, Donut-Dealer and Tough Cookie

You act like I don't know you don't want to be seen with me, but I do know. I'm not stupid.
You are aligned with the Town Faction. You are a Human.
I understand enough! You're only my friend when it's convenient for you.

If you are in an alliance with a player and they decide to ally differently, you may cause all of their actions to fail.
Each Climax phase, you may dedicate your action towards continuing this effect.
This ability may only ever affect a single player at any given time.
If you change targets or stop using this ability, you will be unable to use this ability on your previous target until you ally with them and trigger these effects again.

Just get out of my life!

During the Season Finale, if you hammer a player, that player is killed--no effect may keep them alive in any way.

Beach-a-Palooza!

EPISODE EVENT: Exposition Only--Activate this ability during the Climax Phase.

I can answer any questions that you might have.
Also, feel free to post your role PMs here--I do not by default because I want that to be a decision the player makes, rather than forcing players to have knowledge of all their allies' roles.
That said, if you do quote your role PM, make sure to post your role PM for this game. If you slip and post from a different game, I will have to modkill you. So don't slip. Please don't.

Why oh why do I always roll scum? Hi everyone <3
At least I have rolled correctly in that I got the most inexperienced and clueless character :')

Spoiler: Role PM
Leggy, The Ruby On Her First Mission
Image
Wait! So we just... get up and walk around? Whoa-!
You are aligned with the Scum Faction. You are a Gem.
I'll just go stand over here then.

You have no Episode Event or other abilities.
You may not commit the factional kill unless you are the last surviving member of your team or if stress is at -2 or lower.
Any attempt to investigate if you have access to a kill will provide a negative result until this point in time.
Any attempt to investigate if you have any abilities, Climax-abilities, or other actions will provide a negative result until this point in time.
During the Season Finale, you may publicly confirm that you have no abilities or Episode Events outside of the capacity to confirm this information.
If you choose to do so, I will post the following in the game thread:
"This player has no other non-factional abilities or Episode Events besides the ability to confirm this information."

But we just got here...

You are aligned with
Threats to Earth
.
In order to win the game, your faction must equal or exceed the number of other surviving players left alive.
In order to win the game, at least one Threat to Earth player must be alive.


Lion, The Pink Enigma

Don't worry. He's not going anywhere.
You are aligned with the Town Faction. You do not count as Human or Gem.
Sorry, Dr. Maheswaran, that's my lion.

I interpret this as being some kinda Godfather. From this, we also can be fairly sure there's at least one Gunsmith-esque role in the game.

In your opinion: Is this a thing I should claim in my first post? The whole "VT in a role madness" game? I'm not sure.

If I have to roll scum, I'm glad to do it with you guys. :D

Spoiler: roll pm
Eyeball, A Ruby In Need of Closure
Image
I'm Ruby-1F4 Cut-4ND. I fought in the war for Earth.
You are aligned with the Scum Faction. You are a Gem.
At the very least, I thought Jasper might have some answers, but...

If you ally with any player, you will learn if they are a Human or a Gem.
So long as you are allied with a player, you are immune to all actions.

I never thought I'd get a chance like this.

If stress is at -2 or lower, your factional kill will have enhanced priority when overcoming protective effects--it can still be redirected or protected against by similarly 'enhanced priority' protection.
If only you and/or Jasper are the final living members of your faction, any factional kill you attempt will always have enhanced priority.
This kill will still fail on any non-legal target, such as any player that counts as 'out of game' for any reason.

What will the Diamonds say when they hear that a Ruby defeated Rose Quartz? They're gonna give me my own Pearl!

If no other 'Gem' characters exist outside of the scum faction, you gain control of a unique 'Pearl' account.
I will send the details of this account to you if this is ever the case.
This unique Pearl account will show up in the list of living players and on vote counts.
You can submit votes with this Pearl account--both you and this Pearl account can never be the only voting players on a lynch.
You can not post from this Pearl account otherwise.
This Pearl account may be voted for and affected by Climax actions.
This Pearl account can not form alliances.
Each Climax Phase, you may have this Pearl slot perform one of the following actions:
-This slot may protect any target player from being killed--any kills targeting the protected player will be redirected to the Pearl slot. This may not be used on consecutive Climax Phases.
-This slot may target any player to cause their submitted action to fail. This may not be used on consecutive Climax Phases.

EVENT:
Sworn to the Sword

EPISODE EVENT: Exposition Only--Activate this ability during the Climax Phase.
PRIORITY: 3--if used during Episode 1, it is priority 0.
REQUIREMENTS: You may only activate this ability at +2 or higher Stress. No requirements if used during Episode 1.
Flavor is tied to the Episodes, "Sworn to the Sword" and "Crack the Whip"
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread:
If used during Episode 1, the following will happen:
You will form an alliance with the player with the flavor of 'Steven Universe'.
You will gain a double-vote for the rest of the game.
The following information is private and only known to you:
However, Steven will also become immune to any action submitted by you--only you will know this.
Steven will not be immune to your Pearl's actions or your -4 Stress Factional Kill.

If used during any other Episode, this Event has the following public effects instead;
Town may perform two lynches during this Episode's Exposition.
After one player is lynched, the player lynched will die, then the votecount and deadline will reset for a second lynch.

I got nothing else to lose.

You are aligned with
Threats to Earth

In order to win the game, your faction must equal or exceed the number of other surviving players left alive.
In order to win the game, at least one Threat to Earth player must be alive.

You are aligned with the Town Faction. You are a Human.
I was face-to-face with a monster and I froze. Maybe if I trained a little harder...

So long as you are allied with another player, you are immune to all actions.

I want to, Steven. I want to be a part of your universe.

If you ally with any player, you will learn if they are a Human or a Gem.

I need to be able to protect you!

If no other 'Gem' characters exist outside of the scum faction, you gain control of a unique 'Pearl' account.
I will send the details of this account to you if this is ever the case.
This unique Pearl account will show up in the list of living players and on vote counts.
You can submit votes with this Pearl account--both you and this Pearl account can never be the only voting players on a lynch.
You can not post from this Pearl account otherwise.
This Pearl account may be voted for and affected by Climax actions.
This Pearl account can not form alliances.
Each Climax Phase, you may have this Pearl slot perform one of the following actions:
-This slot may protect any target player from being killed--any kills targeting the protected player will be redirected to the Pearl slot. This may not be used on consecutive Climax Phases.
-This slot may target any player to cause their submitted action to fail. This may not be used on consecutive Climax Phases.

The Earth is my home too, can't I help protect it?

OK, first small victory, I got the role posted correctly. :lol: We need to decide if I want to align with Steven Universe in the first episode and become a double voter for the rest of the game or if we want the option of double lynching. I have a question into Varsoon about triggering this in Episode 1. I want to know if I automatically get an alliance with Steven. If so, that could be big knowing who Steven is.

@Mod, when you say Steven will become immune to "any action you submit" is that just me or the whole scum team?

Foxbird, the good thing about your role is you can be mod confirmed to be VT. If a bunch of players start claiming VT, it might be a good way to push for their lynch by CCing and being able to be mod confirmed.

Just your actions will have no effect.
You will decide to activate this event during the Prequel Phase--if so, it will happen during Episode 1.
You will have an Alliance with Steven in addition to any other Alliance you form.
The idea is that if you use this Event early, you can begin the game with knowledge of who Steven is and get a double vote, but
If you don't use it early, you can enable a double lynch.

Foxbird: claiming your VT status under no pressure is very bad imo. You should be quite aggressive in pushing people, because as a VT, your only utility to town would be pressuring people and scumhunting, and just generally making yourself a pain so scum wold want to nk you and thus save some other town slot.

Early game crumbing of some power, a fake claim of strong utility if a mass claim comes, followed by an explanation of your play/lies combined with utilization of your public VT confirmation should go a long way to ensure that even in the late game town has no reason to suspect you.

Skybird: I *think* you should use it. In theory I could permanently roleblock Steven if we wanted to keep his slot from being a threat(assuming I could talk whoever it is into allying with me once).

@Varsoon: Is the alliance Skybird makes with Steven permanent? Does this mean that as long as Steven is alive, she will be have the benefit of her action immunity? Is the double vote she will gain optional/specifically triggered, or will all her votes be doubled?

The alliance that Skybird's role gains with Steven only lasts for the duration of the episode.
As long as Steven is alive, he will be immune to her actions.
Her double-vote is triggered specifically by either voting the same player twice in a single post or by specifying the vote as a double vote, for instance:
VOTE: Varsoon
VOTE: Varsoon

or
Double Vote: Varsoon


would be accepted.

But yes, the idea was that you could use the event to learn Steven's identity at the cost of giving him some immunity and using scum resources that could be spent otherwise.

So. Any suggestions on how we identify ourselves to the traitor? We know their role name, so we can work with that to identify them and make it clear to them who we are(in theory).

Oh wait.

Varsoon: So Skybird can gain a triple vote? Doubled by the Steven Alliance, and then gains this pearl account?

Yes.
It should be noted that both Skybird and the Pearl account can't be the only voting players on a lynch.
Furthermore, all powers that affect votes do not work in LYLO. I marked this on many of the role PMs, but I may have missed a few. I'll make a public note of it.

My role
Doc, Leader of the Rubies
Image
Focus, Rubies! This is an important mission from Yellow Diamond, so we can't mess it up.
You are aligned with the Scum Faction. You are a Gem.
We're here to retrieve the leader of the Earth mission!

Each Climax Phase, you may forgo any action (besides allying) in order to target a player to discover if they are Jasper (The Traitor) or not.
Once per game, during the Season Finale, you may allow all other Rubies in your faction to perform this action.

I think we better double-check.

Each Climax Phase, you may target a player to learn your choice of one of the following:
-Who they targeted on any Climax phase of your choice.
-Who they chose to ally with during any Episode of your choice.
-Who targeted them on any Climax phase of your choice.
-Which action they took on any Climax phase of your choice (you may only do this if you have information on who they targeted).

Rubies, assemble!

If you ally, you both gain the following abilities:
You may not be killed by any normal killing actions.
You may chat during both Exposition and Climax Phase.
If all members of your alliance are voting the same target, an extra vote will be counted against the target--this can not hammer a player.
During a Season Finale, you may form an alliance of up to five total players in this way and extend these benefits to all of your alliance.
In order for players to join this five-player Alliance, you must submit each of their names and they must all submit your name for allying.

EVENT:
Full Disclosure

EPISODE EVENT: Exposition Only--Activate this ability during the Climax Phase.
PRIORITY: 3
REQUIREMENTS: Neutral or Positive Stress, must be after Episode 2.
Tied to the Flavor of the episodes "Full Disclosure," "We Need to Talk," and other similar flashback episodes.
Choose an earlier Episode in the game.
The following information will be publicly posted in the game thread:
Reduces Stress to zero (neutral).
Players may only use abilities that they used during that Episode.
Players are forced into the same alliances that they had during that Episode.
All players who died since that Episode may post in the game thread and even take actions at Climax Phase.
These players return to being dead after this Event is over.
The Exposition will not end in a lynch, players will simply vote to end the Exposition phase.
The Climax will include no kills.

We've been tricked? Again?!

You are aligned with
Threats to Earth
.
In order to win the game, your faction must equal or exceed the number of other surviving players left alive.
In order to win the game, at least one Threat to Earth player must be alive.

Wait, how is this even possible?
You are aligned with the Town Faction. You are a Human.
Let's just... talk.

Each Climax Phase, you may target a player to learn your choice of one of the following:
-Who they targeted on any Climax phase of your choice.
-Who they chose to ally with during any Episode of your choice.
-Who targeted them on any Climax phase of your choice.
-Which action they took on any Climax phase of your choice (you may only do this if you have information on who they targeted).

I'm going to see a man about a tunnel brush... An internet man. If I'm not back in an hour, call the police.

If you ally, you both gain the following abilities:
You may not be killed by any normal killing actions.
You may chat during both Exposition and Climax Phase.

Well, sometimes it isn't about the fish you keep, but the company you catch.

If all members of your alliance are voting the same target, an extra vote will be counted against the target--this can not hammer a player.
During a Season Finale, you may form an alliance of up to five total players in this way and extend these benefits to all of your alliance.
In order for players to join this five-player Alliance, you must submit each of their names and they must all submit your name for allying.

Now, remember, Steven, if you run into any trouble out there, you can always bail. There's never any shame in bailing.

You are aligned with
Earth
.
In order to win the game, all threats to Earth must be removed from the game.
In order to win the game, at least one Earth-aligned player must be alive.

So we can find Steven instantly via Skybird, gg Varsoon :P
I don't think there's a reason not to use that

I don't watch SU but Cerb you do yeah? If discussion comes around to there being a traitor you can casually bring up some flavor that would fit traitor and mention Jasper

I sorta want to mention Jaspar like, really early in the game. :P I just need some reason to mention her. Maybe something to do with how much I wanted to be Lapis Lazuli cause she's the coolest, so I could pretend I trapped Jaspar for like, half a season. :P

And, flavorwise, Jaspar doesn't intuitively fit as a traitor per se(she's not some sort of hidden enemy or something), but she IS a known enemy who is separated from the rest of her allies.

Also, I expect there to be a 3p anti-town role of some sort, but it's *possible* there isn't, given our two double voters.

Oh, and the reason's to not use the Steven alliance:

1) In the first SU, Varsoon gave knowledge of Steven to scum early in the game. Mod meta may be used against Skybird because of that.
2) The other part of the power, enabling a double lynch, is EXTREMELY pro town, and using it for that could garner Skybird town reads.
