I'm Dr. Manhatten's blue penis.

At least there's three of you at a time.

I am sending out role PMs now. Stand by.

This one looks fun and more my speed for a first game here, so shoot me another PM on RYM whenever there's a less intimidating game open. Thanks for the invite!

Please be on call for a replacement. It always happens.

Scotty wrote:Are we not allowed to infodump?

If we are, I'm Rorschach's baby daddy

Do it at your own risk.

The game will begin in thirty minutes.

You better be.

Aww, I was under the impression he does his best work while loaded.

Oh wait, thats me.

I just want him to be sober ENOUGH to start the game. He definitely does his best work while buzzed, at least.

We are full.

I believe I may be sober enough to start tonight.

Just finished watching Return of the Jedi with my kids for the first time.

Why the hell would you replace Sebastian Shaw with Hayden Christensen in the final scene? It makes zero sense to a new viewer.

Boo.

You're in.

Two more spots available.

What's your current avatar from?

Dude...that's from the alphabet.

That's what you get for studying numbers too long.

Four more and we can

will.

Russ is in?

LoRab wrote:Been wanting to get back. And, hey, watchmen.

Also, Epig and I can't argue about things in thread since he's hosting--so should make for a good comeback.

I don't think we have any ancient Hebrew to worry about...



also

And just to note: I am (have been) adjusting the roles and descriptions slightly. I always try to make things as balanced as they can be.

Work is still underway.

Long Con wrote:Also, I love Rorshach. He's... just the greatest.

My favorite character in the narrative.

The first Silver Spectre will snoop around her daughter’s personal life; if her target has had BTSC with Laurie, Sally will learn the role of the target.

Silk Spectre, if my memory serves.

You have passed the test.

PISSING MATCHES THAT PROVE NOTHING.

Aww yeah.

Come on Bass. MP done called you out.

My speed games are always 24/24.

Players with any P-score are welcome to sign up.

If you sign up, however, you will be expected to vote and use Night actions, if applicable (you may pass on using a Night action, but I need a PM saying so, or it will count as a missed Night action).

Anyone who misses any combination of votes or Night actions three times will have his or her P-score affected appropriately.

Civilians (9)
Win Con: The Inmates and Moloch the Mystic are Dead. Be alive.

Bernard the News Vendor
He posts his unsolicited opinions in the thread via the Host.

Joey the Cab Driver
She purchases a Hustler magazine from Bernard each Night; during this time, she tells Bernard the name of a person she isn’t.

Derf
This Knot-Head intimidates someone each Night, silencing that person and making him unable to vote the next Day.

Hollis Mason
The first Nite Owl can use one of his successor’s utilities one time only.

Sally Jupiter
The first Silk Spectre will snoop around her daughter’s personal life; if her target has had BTSC with Laurie, Sally will learn the role of the target.

Dr. Malcolm Long
Walter’s psychoanalyst, in attempting to convince Rorschach that there are good people in the world, can each Night remove someone’s name from the list of people Rorschach needs dead to win.

Janey Slater
Dr. Manhattan’s ex will search each Night for Dr. Manhattan. If she finds him, she learns his identity and his secrets.

Detective Steven Fine
Tracks on Odd Nights. Bourquin gets the result too.

Detective Joe Bourquin
Tracks on Even Nights. Fine gets the result too.

Watchmen (6)
Unlike the Civilians, Watchmen have superior abilities, but have an additional win condition. Also, unlike the Civilians, Watchmen do not need to be alive at the end to win.



Walter Kovacs / Rorschach
"The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout, 'Save us!" And I'll look down and whisper, 'No.'"

Whenever a civilian or Watchman is lynched, Rorschach will investigate, and track one of the guilty voters on odd Nights. On even Nights, he may choose to kill or spare the person he tracked.

Win Con: Rorschach does not compromise with evil. Anyone who participates in a civilian or Watchman lynch must be dead for Rorschach to win.




Danny Dreiberg / Nite Owl II
“What happened to us? What happened to the American Dream?”

Nite Owl has an impressive array of technological wonders at his disposal. He can:

• Apply his advanced polygraph to lie detect one statement.
  Use his sonic amplifier to deliver an anonymous message to the thread through the Host.
  Reinforce his owl suit to protect himself.
  Activate a projectile shield to protect someone else.
  Airlift from the immediate area, taking all but four people off the poll.
  Scan the perimeter and make an alignment check.

These may only be used once.

Win Con: Nite Owl needs Hollis Mason alive to win. If Hollis Mason is dead, then he needs Derf dead.




Laurie Juspeczyk / Silk Spectre II
“I used to be a masked avenger too, remember... I mean, I’m used to going out at three in the morning and doing something stupid.”

The Silk Spectre will gain temporary BTSC with her target. Her target must claim a role. She cannot gain BTSC with Rorschach, whom she despises. She starts off knowing who her mother Sally is.

Win Con: The Silk Spectre must correctly identify Nite Owl II, Dr. Manhattan, and The Comedian before the end. She can begin with a cold guess, and may update her list at any time until either she is dead or endgame.




Edward Blake / The Comedian
“Once you realize what a joke everything is, being the Comedian is the only thing that makes sense.”

Has one Night kill.

Win Con: Get Night Killed.




Jon Osterman / Dr. Manhattan
“Everything is preordained. Even my responses.”

*Secrets*

Win Con: Presence




Adrian Veidt / Ozymandias
“Do it? Dan, I’m not a Republic Serial villain. Do you seriously think I’d explain my master-stroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome? I did it thirty-five minutes ago.”

Using his vast wealth and intellect, Veidt can manipulate many things. *Secrets*

Win Con: ???


The Inmates (3)
Has BTSC
Kills each Night.
Win Con: Must eliminate the Civilians, the Watchmen, and Moloch the Mystic.

Big Figure
Intimidates someone, buying that person's silence and preventing him or her from voting the next Day. Inherits the kill from Larry or Mike if either of them are dead.

Lawrence
Blocks on Odd Nights. Kills on Even Nights.

Michael
Blocks on Even Nights. Kills on Odd Nights.


Moloch (1)
???
Win Con: Last man standing...maybe.



Edgar Jacobi / Moloch the Mystic
*Secrets*
