Spoiler: The sons of man who live on the earth say; There, is where the rite to rule over the world lies.
DO NOT JOIN THIS GAME IF YOU DON’T LIKE MECHANICS. DO NOT JOIN THIS GAME FULLY EXPECTING A TRADITIONAL MAFIA GAME. THIS GAME IS EXPERIMENTAL, BUT IS NOT BASTARD. I WILL NEVER LIE TO YOU. ALL INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE MODERATOR WILL ALWAYS BE THE TRUTH. I HAVE SPENT A LOT OF EXTRA TIME MAKING SURE THIS GAME WILL NOT BE UNBALANCED, BUT THERE IS A CHANCE OF SWING. DO NOT JOIN THIS GAME UNLESS YOU ARE FULLY COMMITTED OR UNDERSTAND THE RISKS.
Spoiler: The philosophers with deep knowledge inscribe; There, is where the mysteries of the world become clear.
THIS GAME USES ITS OWN FORM OF
NIGHT ACTION RESOLUTION
.
Spoiler: The descendants of ferocious warriors pass down; There, is where the world's strongest arms are inherited.
THE FLOW OF TIME IN THIS GAME IS DETERMINED BY STRATUM. THERE WILL BE MULTIPLE STRATUMS THROUGHOUT THE GAME. THIS GAME HAS A N0 WHICH WILL BE STRATUM 0. FOLLOWING THAT, THE FIRST DAY WILL BE STRATUM 1. NIGHT WHICH WILL BE STRATUM 2. SECOND DAY STRATUM 3. SO ON AND SO FORTH UNTIL THE GAME REACHES CONCLUSION.
Spoiler: The tale that the praying people who travel the grassy plains spin; There, is where enormous gold and silver treasure sleeps.
THIS GAME USES AN HP SYSTEM FOR RESOLVING ACTIONS. EACH PLAYER WILL HAVE A BASE ATK WHICH WILL VARY DEPENDING ON WHAT CLASS YOU ARE. IF A PLAYER REACHES 0 HP BY AN ACTION, THEY WILL BE CONSIDERED MORTALLY WOUNDED. IN THIS STATE, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO POST, VOTE, OR DO ANYTHING. YOU ARE BASICALLY DEAD UNTIL I CAN POST YOUR FLIP. HOWEVER, ELIMINATING SOMEONE BY VOTE WILL ALWAYS INFLICT MORTAL DAMAGE, MEANING IT WILL NEGATE ALL OF YOUR REMAINING HP NO MATTER WHAT; THE MAFIA WILL HAVE A TRADITIONAL NIGHT KILL WHICH ALSO WILL INFLICT MORTAL DAMAGE, BUT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ATTACK AND INFLICT MORTAL DAMAGE AT THE SAME TIME.
Spoiler: Various races pursue various legends, and gather at Yggdrasil.
FOR EACH NIGHT STRATUM YOU SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE (MEANING, YOU ARE ALIVE BY THE TIME IT HAS ENDED) YOU WILL RECEIVE A SKILL POINT. SKILL POINTS ARE A FORM OF CURRENCY THAT YOU USE IN ORDER TO USE ABILITIES. EVERYONE WILL START WITH 2 SKILL POINTS, AND INNATE ABILITIES WHICH DO NOT COST SKILL POINTS. YOU CAN ONLY USE MULTIPLE SP ABILITIES IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH SKILL POINTS TO DO SO. YOU MAY ONLY USE ONE INNATE ABILITY PER STRATUM. ASSUME ALL ABILITIES ARE TO BE USED AT NIGHT UNLESS SPECIFIED. FURTHERMORE, ASSUME ALL ABILITIES ARE NON-CONSECUTIVE, MEANING YOU CANNOT TARGET THE SAME PERSON TWICE WITH AN ABILITY UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE.
Spoiler: They all heed the dreams within their hearts, and demand new adventure!
SUBMITTING ACTIONS WILL BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT AS WELL. HERE IS A TEMPLATE FOR YOU TO USE:
Stratum 1
Target - Ability
Using skill point(s)? [Yes/No]
Skills you are unlocking: (Ability) [Cost], (Ability) [Cost], Etc.

Use your skill points wisely. They are non-refundable. Skill points are both a transaction and the cost needed to use your abilities. You may choose to
idle
which will mean you will take no action, but will still gain a skill point.
Pay attention to what information is being claimed and results. Think about if someone is either claiming (or has claimed) to use an ability that would be considered beneficial to you or your alignment.
Have fun. This is a more active game of Mafia with it's innerworkings, which will ensure everyone will have something to do over the night. Your actions matter as does your voice!
If you don't understand something,
ask.
I am not infallible, and my goal of this game is to create something unique and enjoyable at the same time. Not endlessly frustrate you.
The following game is a
closed setup.
The role distribution will be 17
Town
, 6
Mafia
, and 1
Third-Party
.
If you are a hydra, you need to make a hydra discord account. Furthermore, I am only allowing
2
hydras in this game.
Just for clarity sake-- I will have a lot of actions to resolve early on. I will try my best to have everything figured out by the time deadline is reached, but I do not guarantee it. Please have patience with me, I am only one man.
So what's the flavor you ask? Sign up to find out!
(Or just know the subtext)

his first post in the scum PT was "yes I rolled scum!"
I decided to post "haha just don't post that in the main thread", but to get up to date on the main thread first.

/in with the caveat that if anyone who has signed up before me doesn't want me in the game they can PM you and that'll be enough that I won't play since they were here before me. (Basically, if you don't by default allow Wisdom of the Crowd, this is me explicitly telling you to use WotC on me.)

We just need to tread carefully because if you slip up around her as scum she notices and will tear your spine out and slap you to death with it. (I'm slightly scared of Nancy)

Nancy-scum feels like a hot knife slicing through butter. Nancy-town feels like a magnifying glass in the sun glaring down at an insect.
