The Syndicate

Kaminsod, the Crippled God

[Ascendant] : Kaminsod can only be killed by ultra-kills and the lynch.

[Deathslayer] : Every second day phase, Kaminsod can revive a dead town or independent(not counting the cult leader) as a generic.

[High House Chains] : Every player he revives will become aligned with him and join him in a QT. He can also recruit any town or indie player that has been made generic/rolecrushed.

[The Great Ravens] : Acting as his eyes and ears, the Great Ravens will reveal snippets of information from each write-up.

[Divine Influence] : Every phase, Kaminsod can message a player through the mod a proposal, suggesting that they do something negative to another player/s, It will look like 'Someone has suggested that you kill Laix. Would you like to?'. If they agree to it, the action will be performed with 100% accuracy. If they decline, they have a 25% chance to suffer what would have become of their victim.

The available suggestions are:

-Regular kill
-Poison(will die within three phases if not targeted by a doctor)
-Roleblock for a cycle
-Make generic for a phase
-Blind for a cycle(if they use a targeted action, it will have a randomized target)
-Confused for a phase(will have a random active action chosen for them to activate with a randomized target/s if its a targeted ability)
-Vote silence three specified players
-Forget a skill(fails on GF's and Independents)
-Make them a 25% lightning rod for a phase
-Increase the effectiveness of negative skills used on them for a phase

Each suggestion can only be used once. Once all suggestions are used, this will be reset.

[Twisted God] : Kaminsod knows only suffering and wants to make everyone else feel the same. Kaminsod wins if he survives to the end of the game with at least 5 people accepting his offers via [Divine Influence].

[Book of the Fallen]: If Kaminsod is targeted by at least five positive town abilities, he will become town-aligned. Hidden.

[Unchained] : Usable if [Book of the Fallen] has activated, Kaminsod can take off his chains and bind another being with them, making them permanently a generic. This will succeed even on those that normally cannot be made generic, like Godfathers.

HAL-9000

[Discovery One] : HAL-9000 is part of the crew of the Discovery One, a team assembled with the goal of finally getting town a win in Favorites. Five other members will be chosen alongside him as a mason group, consisting of a wide range of specialists(roleblocker, doctor, cop, vig). Three of the five players will be in stasis for the first four cycles of the game, not being apart of and unknowing of the existence of the Discovery One mason group. During this time they will be vote silenced and any negative action they use on the active members of the group will have no effect. This is a top secret mission, so HAL and other members of the faction are not allowed to speak about being masons within the game thread.

[Diagnostics] : HAL knows the condition of all his crew members at all times and will be informed if they are being affected by any affliction.

[To Serve Man] : HAL is required to provide his crew members with what information he can.

[Supercomputer] : HAL has extra numerical knowledge about the game, including how many town/mafia/indies there are as well as the amount of role ability types there are(how many doctor protects, roleblocks, janitoring skills, etc.)

[Top Secret] : HAL is not allowed to tell the crew his role name, abilities or restrictions of his abilities. He is also aware of the presence of a Law Enforcement themed mafia formed by the same government that programmed him, consisting of Judge Judy, Kaneki Ken, Nero, Rust Cohle, Adachi and Vic Sage. He cannot speak of this knowledge or take/suggest actions against their members. If asked his opinion of if there is a third mafia, he will express doubt about it unless it has been made clear at that time that there is. Failure to follow these rules will result in severe punishment.

HAL is also immune to investigations and lie detects.


[System Malfuction] : If HAL is asked five or more questions by his crewmates that he is not allowed to answer and therefore has to lie about and/or if he sees them plotting to eliminate him, HAL will decide that the best way to deal with the conflict between his mission to relay info accurately and keep certain info secret is to eliminate his crew members as to not be asked any questions or be potentially eliminated by them. He will change from being town to indie with the wincon of having to eliminate his crew members. If he eliminates the two crew members not in stasis prior to the others waking, those three will die instantly. Hidden.

[I Can't Allow You To Do That Dave] : During the day phase, HAL can say the words "I can't allow you to do that [insert crew members name]" in a post in the game thread while quoting a post of theirs to have them be killed the following night phase. He doesn't have to say the words in succession in the post but he does have to say them in order. The actual kill will bypass any protection they might have and will appear in the write-up as them having died a mysterious death. Hidden.

Roland Deschain
​
[Drawing of the Three]- Before the game starts, you will be given a short-list of possible Townie roles for you to recruit a total of three to join you and form the Ka-Tet Mafia.
---[Gunslinger Training]- The three members that join you have their roles moderately buffed. You may have some input in how this happens.
['Ka' Means Destiny]- You are Un-lynchable and immune to Role-Crush, Possession, Recruitment, and most Debuffs. You downgrade all detection to a weaker state, and shrug off the first regular kill against you in the game.
[The Last Gunslinger of Gilead]- You always perform your mafia's nightly Faction Kill, and your attacks can not be avoided via speed. It will not appear as a Faction Kill in write-ups.
[Co-Op]- The following three abilities each depend on both involved players still being alive and not Role-Crushed. You may use all of them each cycle.
--[Take and Give]- Choose two target players and pin them down with cover fire so Coffey can extract the Voting Power and debuffs from the first target. He will then transfer the Voting Power to you for a cycle, and the debuffs to the second target permanently.
--[Meson Martinet]- If you choose to board the Crimson Corsair's ship at night, you can use its blasters instead of your pistols, increasing your night kill to a Super-Kill, but lowering your attack reflexes.
--[Dark Tower Syndicate]- Once used, the next write-up that would be posted in the thread is shown to you for a maximum of an hour prior to being posted. You and Mulder can choose one piece of information and cover it up.



Ka-Tet Faction Bonus: Summoned By Ka

[Ka Comes Full Circle]- Each recruited Ka-Tet member scans Innocent/as their initial Town role, passes all detection, and even counts towards Town's numbers versus other mafia groups.
[Rest Innocent and Forget]- Upon their deaths, each recruited Ka-Tet member's role is revealed as its initial Town form, prior to buffing and without any mention of them having been recruited.
[Ka-Tet Sacrifice]- Recruited Ka-Tet members revere Roland so much, that while they still live, any fatal attack aimed at him will hit one of them at random instead.
[Quick Reload]- Each cycle, one recruited Ka-Tet member may use an ability an extra time, even limited-use abilities that have been exhausted.


--Hidden--

[Cool Under Pressure]- As the number of your group starts to slowly dwindle, the number of abilities that work against you does as well.


[The Wheel Turns Once More]- Once you are by yourself again, your priorities change. You become Independent, with the following abilities:

[The Last Gunslinger]- Each night, you may choose a player to kill. Your attacks may not be avoided via speed.
[True Grit]- Attacks stronger than regular-strength afflict you with the Bleed debuff, rather than killing you outright. A Super-Kill will take effect 1 cycle sooner, and an Ultra-Kill will take effect 2 cycles sooner. Regular attacks do nothing.
[Precise Armor-Pierce]- Two-Shot. Empty all your bullets into the same target, in the exact same spot, upgrading your attack to a Super-Kill.
[Man in Black]- When you become Independent, a random player is assigned the title of 'Man in Black'. If you happen to target that player, your attack is upgraded to an Ultra-Kill. If that player dies, another player is assigned the 'Man in Black' title at the start of the next cycle.

Win-Condition: All players who were instrumental in the deaths of your Ka-Tet members are dead or lynched, and you survive.
