Current Vote Count (Post 940)

Long ago, there was a small village at the edge of the woods where the people lived simple, if hard, lives. They toiled to better themselves, their friends, and their families, and this work gave them a sense of satisfaction, but still the Woods were an unknown danger. One day, a member of the village ventured forth into the woods and had many adventures, coming back with the understanding that even though things can be scary, it is a sign of personal growth to face your fears and overcome them. Ultimately, the villagers chose to believe that fear is natural, but that facing that fear leads to good things.

They were wrong.

This is not that story. This is the story of a community of insular individuals, so caught up in their fear that they cannot trust each other or work together. They are a perfect example of the nature of fear. Yes, fear is natural. Yes, fear can be confronted. Yes, fear can serve a purpose. But fear can also be dangerous. Fear can be malicious. Fear can be insidious. And Fear can be

EVIL

.

This community ought to know that, after all, because this community WAS Fear. And in the end, the only sure thing they knew was that Fear is never Kind.

It is Currently Night 2. Submit actions!

Important Notes

Role PMs are OUT!

Sample PM flavor may change in the next few days, but the formatting is accurate.

It is possible, but not guaranteed, for two or more players to have identical roles or submissions.

Benign vs Insidious fears is a factional delineation, not a judgment about the validity of a fear. All factional delineations were randomly generated.

The Rules: Always in Effect

1. Don't be a dick.
2. This is a game for fun. Act like it.
3. Pretending to break a rule IS breaking a rule.
4. Don't PROVABLY quote priveledged information.
5. Try not to allow outside influences to affect the game.
6. Follow Site Rules.
7. If you think it should be against the rules, assume it is.
8. I will change these at any time for the integrity of the game or if I think it will increase the enjoyment of the players.

The Rules: This Game

1. Days will last 7 days. If a player has 51% of the votes in the thread, they will be eliminated immediately. Nights will last 36 hours. If you foresee being unable to submit a night action, you are allowed to presubmit at any time via PM. If all players agree

VIA PM

night will end early. If you would like to automatically agree to end all nights early, please let me know.

2. The Insidious Fears Faction has day chat and may communicate at any time as long as both are alive.

3. Please post in this thread at least once per 48 hours. If you will be unable to post for a period of between 2 and 5 days, please let me know via V/LA banner, bolded post in the main thread, or PM. If you are unable to post for longer than 5 days, consider replacing out.

4. Deadline extensions will be granted at my discretion. If you believe a deadline extension is in order, please request such via PM, NOT in the main thread.

5. Flavor is not alignment indicative in this game. However, if any player would like a fake claim, they may ask me for one with abilities and flavor of their choice via PM and I will format it appropriately as soon as I am able. Please do not abuse this feature. I cannot guarantee that requested flavors will not be held by another player.

6. Death flavor, regardless of the method of death, will be related to the submissions of the players. Players may submit their own death flavor, so long as it meets this criteria.

[Jingle]

Role PMs are going out shortly. Please Confirm as instructed in your Role PM. The Game will start when 7/9 have confirmed. The thread will probably unlock before then.

It's a special kind of gif that shows you Your Nightmare, everyone sees something different when looking inside it.

No shit? I figured we were going down in flames there. Good to know.

[Hectic]

Krazy replaced in and kinda powersolved the game by getting all the mech stuff together. I could feel the fear scum felt from Haggle's avatar though, I reckon we were the real MVPs of that game.

We want town vigging each other in this game to make it closer to nightless I think. Like, if we all massclaim today, we can make it so that we're down to 5 people tomorrow. Scum gets-

Never mind, I checked the rules again. I thought scum had 1 max fear identity kill, but turns out they can both do it, so we can't catch scum that way.

I dont see any benefit to claiming fear flavor. It would give scum two free kills and on top of that their factional kill. It would wipe out a full day.

[Hectic]

I don't think mass claiming is a good idea having thought about it. There's too many flaws.

My fear is of spiders btw.

My fear is of playing against you. Which I know is against the rules, but for some reason the mod let it slide.

[Hectic]

Yeah, people always say that about me. "That Hectic is such a terrifying presence. How in the world did he get to the level he's at?"

You know what I tell them? Hard work, perseverance, intelligence, ruthlessness, and smidge of talent is all you need. Otherwise, I'm just like everyone else.
