Mafia Religions

[Jenter Brolincani]

A few role ideas. please note that I am not a racist, and I have the greatest respect for all religious beliefs.

Buddhists

Buddhist (town)
May not vote to lynch, but may reincarnate once and may help in the discussion to catch the scum.
Buddhist priest (town)
May recruit Bhuddists. May reincarnate twice.

Muslims

Cleric (town)
May scan people as a night action to find if they are;
a) A suicide bomber
b) a Radical Cleric
Radical Cleric (Mafia)
May recruit Mafia members and make them into suicide bombers.

Sikhs

Sikh (town)
May nightkill anyone who put a vote to lynch an innocent person.

Christians

Priest (town)
May not put the lynching vote on a player.
Good Inquisitor (town)
Gets 2 votes for lynching, if the person they lynch is innocent they commit suicide.
Evil Inquisitor (Mafia)
Gets 2 votes for lynching, the mafia don't know who he is
Jesus (town)
The town wins if he gets lynched. He just has to persuade the town to kill him off.

There are a lot more religions you could include to increase the variety of your roles. Judaism, for example.

[Jenter Brolincani]

Yeah, I know, I'm just brainstorming more now.

[MeMe]

I've actually

been

Jesus in a game. Even though I was killed, I forgave them.

[Mastermind of Sin]

Jesus - If you are lynched, the town gains nightkill immunity 3 nights from now, for the rest of the game.

[Kelly Chen]

In a scumchat UPick game I was masons with Jesus [PariahKing]. I picked Moses.

Moses is always, always town in UPick.

Judiasm:

You will somehow miraculously recover from an attempt to kill you, unless the item you're carrying - The Ark - is stolen. If Solomon dies, you will automatically lose The Ark. If Jesus dies, your Mason parter - Paul - will become a ressurecting/converting SK. If he converts four people, he will die and his team will become the Catholic Church. Every day they will gain slightly more power, until a rival team will be formed known as the Portestants. The Protestants will gain lots of power, until eventually they split off into lots of opposing SKs. Some time later, Joseph Smith will begin converting members of these other teams, and various peole will bicker about pylygamy (spelling?) for a while, and then some one will shout, "HEY, MORONS, THEY STOPPED THAT LIKE FOREVER GO!". If you get the Ark back, Jesus will come back into the game and lots of people will die for seven days. Then the various Christian players will all be ressurected and the game will go on for 1000 days before ending.

You are holding The Ark.

[livingod]

I assume the role name is Noah. I would LOVE that role

[Kelly Chen]

I'm guessing it's the ark of the covenant, not Noah's ark.

[livingod]

oh yeah that thing. A bit rusty on religions I do not practice.

So it's Moses? And he's always, always town in Upick...

[Yosarian2]

Wicca: healer (doc, 50% chance of sucess)

Athiest: immune to all religious-based night actions.

Scientologist: cult leader

Confusinism: Weak information role, gets vauge comments from mod that could mean almost anything.

[Jenter Brolincani]

Here's what I've come up with...

Judaism

Jew (town)
Like masons, jews know that each other are innocent, but they may not contact as masons do douring the night phase. If a jew is lynched, his fellow jews may only vote for one of his lynchees until at least one of the lynchees is dead.

Shamanism

Shaman (Shaman)
Acts like a cult leader, recruiting townies to shamanists. Townies have a 50% chance of dying when converted.
Shamanist (Shaman)
Like a villager on the side of the shamanists. Has NK immunity.

Shintoism

Priest (town)
May not cast the lynching vote on a player, has NK immunity.
Ninja (either)
Ninjas have Night Action immunity; they cannot be seen, killed or targeted in any way except by doctors. They get a nightkill every night.
Ninjas can choose in their first night phase which side to be on.

[SpinWizard]

Budisam?

[pablito]

In Leper Mafia, I was going to put in Jesus as a SK. He would've had to "heal" all the lepers so that they leave the island and he wins when all the lepers are off the island (either killed by the evil priest quartet, lynched or healed).

Yos, look at Group Therapy for cult.

A few role ideas. please note that I am not a racist, and I have the greatest respect for all religious beliefs.

does whether or not your are a racist determine how you feel about other religons?

[Mr. Flay]

Many (but not all) racists are also religious nutjobs...

[Yosarian2]

And I'd say there's a very correlation between anti-arabic racists and anti-islamic bigots, for example. Or in some cases, like anti-semitism, it's even closer.

[Mert]

You forgot The Church of the Subgenius.
