Spoiler: Sample Role PM
You are Navi, Hyrule Vanilla Townie
After alerting all the friends of Link on the plan to defeat Ganondorf, you made your way to the castle. Now you will fight win Link with honor! Although, as a navi, you are not very useful. You can vote and speak, but that's all.
You win when all threats to the people of Hyrule have been eliminated.
Roles are being randomized and sent out. Whenever you get your role pm,
Please confirm that you understand these 3 things: Your alignment, your role, and the rules Via pm.
The game will begin when 11/13 people have confirmed these 3 things.
So far: 11/13
AND PLEASE, If you have any questions, let me know. I want this to be a fun experience for everyone in every game I mod and I really hope everyone will enjoy it.
With 11 out of 13 confirmed, day begins! But first....
As the radiant sun peeked its head over the horizon, he rose from his slumber. Talon had permitted him to stay at the ranch for the night. He rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and recalled his appalling nightmares.
He stopped short of the drawbridge. Thunder crackled all around, and a freezing rain that could chill over the strongest of wills was drenching the land. Zelda came galloping over the bridge with her mentor guiding the horse. The look of sheer terror that glazed her expression sent a shiver down his spine. Before he could deduce the problem, the answer came barrelling past. Ganondorf, the great king of evil, was tailing Zelda. He threatened you if you did not tell him where they went. Your blood boiled as you looked upon the face of evil a face you would not soon forget.
He dawned his forest green cloak and shouldered his bag, which was already filled with his longshot, bombs, arrows, and other important gear. This was the day misery ended for the land of Hyrule.
As he exited the house, Epona was already awake and waiting for him. The long white mane ruffled as he put on her saddle. He mounted Epona. Now he would wait.
As the sun fully broke through the horizon, and the horns sounded from the east, south, and west, he waved goodbye to Lon Lon Ranch. Either he would never see it again, or he would return a champion.
The horses’ hooves clattered and thundered against the choppy expanse of soil. The sound of people marching behind him was drowned out by the one thought in his mind. Vengeance. Ganondorf stole his triforce, destroyed his realm, and wreaked havoc on all those he cared about.
Today was the day for vengeance. Today was the day for justice. Today was the day to link Hyrule.
Just because I have a low post count, doesn't mean I'm lurking. I've covered most issues whenever I make a new post. Not all of us sit at our computer and wait to have active conversations.
Really, you've covered the issues? You're not getting upset when town get wagoned.
You've said Clevage was "trying too hard" when pushing a Phoenix wagon. You know where I usually see this, scum trying to silence town leaders.
You spent a lot of energy attacking Phoenix's wagon, but you never outright state Phoenix is town.
You're just attacking leadership and lurking your way through this.
Even your last vote on Cakey doesn't explain what you dislike about him.
You jumped on beeboy. Uber sheepage.
So I ask you, where's your spine on your reads? The town toog I know has one. Scum toog just makes sure to "comment" on what he feels is important.
~Titus
I don't get upset about anything, typically, though I am known to get frustrated from time to time when it comes to obtuse behavior.
"Trying too hard" isn't how I'd describe it. I'd say it was more just a shit reason, voting someone because they didn't mesh with the rest of the RVS.
I also don't have a town read on Phoenix, hence the reason I've never called him town. I haven't called him scum either. I've never understood why people need to decisively clarify players that early in day 1. I reacted to the wagon on Phoenix and his response to the wagon, and responded to those. I also called out the player who was sideline jabbing and misrepping a player, and that was my first real read of the game for scum. I didn't sheep anyone, unless you want to argue that because I voted after Michael that I was a sheep then that's your prerogative.
What leadership am I bashing that is present in this game? If you mean cleavage, why am I now assisting them to Lynch Cakez?
It is a naked vote, and the only reason I have is that I am lending support to the wagon. I wouldn't even say I have a scum read on the slot. So yeah, guilty of sheeping, but not on the target you claim I was.
@Mod: this game was advertised only as being Role Madness. Role Madness was not listed in signups or opening post. Is the game still considered a Role Madness game, or has it changed since it's advertisement?
This game would be classified as role madness. I forgot to put it on signups, but if you would like it added to the OP as a reminder, I can do that.
The brutal sun was still slightly dangling over the sky as night approached, the castle walls in sight of the army. They decided to settle outside the walls. While in the camp, a little girl was doing her best to stay strong. She was approached by someone and stabbed straight through the heart.

You are Malon, Hyrule Jack of All Trades: 1-shot Double Voting, 1-shot Roleblocking, 1-shot Link-neighborizer
You were only a child when you met Link; however, he saved the day by rescuing your father. Now, he needs your help. With the future in peril and evil rising up, you will rise to the occasion. Having grown up on a ranch your whole life, you are an avid horse trainer. You have a variety of horses at your disposal to help Link.
Ace:
During the night, you may pm me if you wish to use this role. The following day your vote will count as 2 reflected as “Ace”. Ace is loyal, so he will always vote with you. This ability is disabled in a LYLO situation.
Epona:
During the night, you may pm me if you wish to use this role. You will send Epona to one player, if it is Link, you will form a neighborhood with him. If not, Epona will return disheartened.
Thunder:
During the night, you may pm me if you wish to use this role. You will send Thunder out and they will shock one player, causing them to fail any night actions.
You may only use one per night and these are each limited to one shot.
You win when all threats to the people of Hyrule have been defeated.
When she was found, the scars made it quite obvious who performed the kill. It was
cookie bakers
, who is
Link
.
Was this kill an honest mistake by the army's hero? Or the work of a traitor? Only time will tell.
As night fell, the people of Hyrule burst through the first castle door with a mighty surge. What they found was mortifying. Corpses of former royalty lay spread across the floor. Wine cups rusted with age still clinched in their hands, as if they wanted one last drink before their world ended. Upon the walls were paintings of royalty, but instead of the faces of each royal member, Ganondorf morphed his head onto each one, as if to mock the former kings and queens.
Startled and confused, the group settled down in the outer foyer for now. They used the bones as firewood to keep them warm through the night, although many protested this was against their humanity, the decision was made to help save humanity.
"We cannot sleep yet!" proclaimed a member of the group. "There is a traitor among us yet!"
The people of Hyrule turned to
Toogeloo
and with relentless fury attacked him until he was no more. His mask slid off his face. The last mask he was going to have Link deliver.

Spoiler:
You are Happy Mask Salesman, Hyrule Fruit Vendor
When Ganondorf took over the land, you knew you had to leave. You traveled across the 4th wall to a different dimension. There you could sell your masks in peace; however, a strange call lured you back. Link, a child who once helped you sell masks, now needed help to vanquish evil. You sprung into action to fight for your right to sell masks in peace.
Mask sale:
During the night, you may pm me the name of a player. That player will be informed that they will receive a mask.
You win when all threats to the people of Hyrule have been eliminated.
Day 1 is over! Night 1 begins! It ends in (expired on 2016-03-12 23:10:45)
The night turned frigid long before the makeshift firewood ran out. Even with the group huddled around the fire, warmth slowly drained from the group. As they fell asleep one by one, rain began dripping in from leaks in the crumbling ceiling. Many could not sleep this night.
A cracking thunder sent a shiver down someone's spine. They stood up, and began pacing around. Finally, he got up and began trying to find the group's next path. If he could find the way, maybe the group could finish their mission easier; however, as he approach a new entrance and dagger struck him through the stomach. He attempted to cry out, but hand clenched around his mouth silenced his best efforts. Soon, he was no more.
When the sun burst forth from the clouds, the group awoke and ate breakfast. Next, they packed their belongings to continue pressing on through the castle. When they approached a door to a new room, someone shrieked, as they found a dead body. Many of the fish soldiers mourned in agony, as their beloved King was no more.

Spoiler:
You are King Zora XVI, Hyrule Modposter
All you can remember is a frigid chill sweeping across your kingdom. When you had awoken, your land was frozen in ice and Link was much older. Link had saved you twice now. When you heard Link’s call, you knew you had to help. You amassed your soldiers and moved forward towards the castle.
King among his people:
During the night, you may pm me a message. I will post it along at the start of the next day. It can be no longer than 100 words.
You win when all threats to the people of Hyrule have been defeated.
A note was found on the east wall of the castle. It was written on Royal Paupas and it read like this.
"My role is a modposter. I can have the moderator post a message at the beginning of every day."
With another ally dead, the group could only surge forward.
Beads of sweat rolled across the heroes' faces, as they waded through zombie after zombie. Swords clashed and spears jabbed; however, no enemy could stop this unremitting group.
"Quick, in here!" someone yelled.
The group finished off the last of the zombies in the hall and dashed into the mysterious room. Gasping for breath, the group scanned the room. It was a bedroom, surprisingly still in royal condition considering all this castle has been through. When settling down, someone shrieked with joy.
Zelda was lying on the bed, unconscious. Even Link shed a tear of joy, as he ran over to awaken Zelda from her slumber.
However he was held back by the group. They told him to look at her again, closer. When he saw her clothing he grimaced. She was wearing a garment similar to that of Ganondorf. He didn't know what to think, but before he could speak his mind, the rest of the group decimated Zelda with a few crushing blows.
Many sobbed over this loss, but they knew it was something which had to be done.
Beeboy was lynched day 2! He was
Spoiler:
You are Zelda, Evil 1-shot Self-watching, Role Cop
You just helped Link acquire the Triforce of Courage, but you were captured by Ganondorf. If only Link could have reached you! But now it’s too late. The poison you were crystalized in reached your heart. Now, you have an unquenchable bloodlust. You will stop at nothing to prevent Link from changing Hyrule back into a land of peace. Being a princess also comes with some perks.
Royal Order:
During the night, you may pm me the name of a player. By royal decree, you will receive information on their role.
Triforce of Wisdom:
During the night, you may pm me if you wish to activate your Triforce. You will learn the name of anyone who targets you. You may only use this once. You may use this the same night as you use Royal Order.

The heroes settled down for the night, in the nicest room they have seen so far. Although the comfort of the room was not enough, as nobody could sleep through the weeping of those who loved Zelda so very much.
Day 2 is over! Night 2 begins and ends in (expired on 2016-03-19 18:48:40)
This night the people of Hyrule slept peacefully in their room. The coziness of it was probably maintained by Ganondorf to appease Zelda. Pictures of Zelda as a child were hung upon the wall. A cruel reminder of her past innocence.
This was all going through Link's head, as he made his way out of the room. "She's dead, she's dead", is all he could think. If only I had been faster, If only I had been stronger. These thoughts bubbled through the cracks of his mouth as a mutter as he stepped outside on one of the many balconies. He lay out on one of the ledges, finding just a slight amount of slumber.
A few hours later, he awoke to the sound of someone approaching, "yuh you" is all he could manage as he tried to step down, but before he could react, he was pushed off the balcony, and landed with a large thud.
When morning came, the group realized Link was missing. They searched and searched, but could not find him.
"Fitting" someone finally came forth, "that he would die right after his sweetheart"
Many chalked it up as suicide, but others knew better. This was the work of pure evil.
Cookie Bakers died night 2! They were
Spoiler:
You are Link, Hyrule 1-shot Strongman 1-shot day or night Vigilante Link Revealer
You grew up in Kokiri Forest, a kid with no fairy; however, when Navi found you that day, your whole world flipped upside down. The search for the spiritual stones was successful until you were sealed in the Sacred Realm. Now, you are at the age to be the Hero of Time. With your Master Sword on your back and Hyrule on your shoulders, you can’t give up yet! In your travels, you have acquired many useful weapons to aid you in the fight against evil.
Master Sword:
During the night or day you may pm me the name of a player. You will slice that player to pieces killing them. You may only use this ability once. Due to the scars left by the Master Sword, you will be revealed as Link.
Triforce of Courage:
If you use your Master Sword during the night, you may pm me if you wish to activate your triforce. If so, you will gather up the courage and any kill with your Master Sword ability will be uninterrupted. You may only use this ability once.
You win when all threats to the people of Hyrule have been defeated.
And so night 2 ends, with a huge blow to the people of Hyrule weighing heavy upon their hearts.
This day passed quicker than any others. It was almost as if the forces of evil shortened the day with sheer willpower. Except that's silly, so no.
The remaining members of the army had to be careful. With many of their comrades gone, they couldn't abruptly and boldly fly at the enemy. They chose to take the slow paths and attempt to avoid detection.
As they made there way onto the roof of the castle one from the group stood up among them. He turned to his comrades and addressed them.
"We are so close friends, if you would keep following me, I can guide us the correct way!"
As he turned around to continue his guiding, the sounds of swords being drawn was clear as day.
"Wait, you cannot honestly believe it is me? I'm the cop, I'M A HERO. I SAVED LINK"
"No" a voice uttered, "You keep claiming to be the sage of Light, but we can see your intentions"
Although he pleaded, the remaining soldiers grabbed him by his cloak and stabbed him through the stomach.
"A painful death for one who as caused much pain"

You are one of the seven ancient sages. You woke Link and revealed his status as Hero of Time. When you explained the situation, he sprang into action. He freed the rest of the sages from their prisons. Now, he needs your help yet again. Unfortunately, you can’t leave the Temple of Light; however, your telepathic powers are unmatched.

"What, what have we done" a cry uttered from the group.
This much death, this much suffering. Does it ever reach an end? This question was on everyone's mind; however, some secretly smiled trying to hide their excitement for such a terrible loss.
Chaos. Utter chaos and panic. That's all you remember throughout this night. The remaining members were screaming and running around the rooftop, as if an enemy was here.
But you saw nobody. As you turned around, a freight train coming out of the sky utterly crushed you.
You woke up with sweat on your brow.
"Just a dream" you muttered to yourself.
But as you looked around, you noticed the group gathered around one central spot. You brushed off something that appears to be ash waltzed over to see what was wrong.
Imprinted into the rooftop was a corpse. Burnt to a crisp.
Nobody could recognize the body; however, you could tell from who was missing.
Sensei died night 3!
Hyrule was in deep trouble if the group could not find their enemies fast. The time is ticking.
The two soldiers faced off. Blow by blow, strike by strike, it seemed as if the battle would never cease.
Eventually, the remainder of the group realized who was evil. "
"It's you Firebringer, you cannot hide any longer"
Firebringer, backed into a corner of the rooftop, decided to end his own life by jumping off.
As he fell, his mask peeled off, and his true colors were revealed.
Firebringer was lynched day 4! He was

You are Ganondorf, Evil 1-shot Janitor, 1-shot Gladiator Ninja
You had finally done it. Achieved the power of the Triforce, but some of it refused you. No matter, Power is all you needed to take over Hyrule. When you learned Link was returning with help, you took this as the perfect opportunity to get back the Triforce. If you could defeat them, nobody could stop your reign! Being a creature of darkness, you can use this to aid you in destroying your enemies, you even revived Volvagia to do your bidding.

The heroes awoke in the heart of the castle. The throne room.
The room was spinning. All but 2 passed out. They stood with an intense fire in their eyes.
"Dampe is dead, and you are part of the fault!" screamed the violent hero.
The enemy struck down the young adult. When the others awoke his body was violently beaten to death.

You used to look up to Dampe as your hero, but he is dead now, and you have grown up. You were walking in the fields of Hyrule one day when you heard a call. A beckon for battle.

Somewhere far off from the castle, a ghost moaning could be heard. It was as if the ghost of Dampe could feel his friend passing from this world.
