Recruitment Mafia 4: Dawn of the Clans [FULL GAME]

[Black Rock]

Recruitment Mafia 4: Dawn of the Clans

We left off the world here:

Unlikely Victors

Serenity the Technomagus walked through the small crowd that had gathered, and it quickly parted around her in deference and respect, and Chief Advisor Tenquist followed closely, as always. The people had gathered to see the spectacle, but had not dared to get too close. Serenity passed the front ranks of onlookers and into the centre, where Typhoony, Matahari, and DisgruntledPorcupine stood, swords still drawn, over DFaraday's dead body. They sheathed their weapons as Serenity approached, and nodded in deference to her.

"You did not have to kill him," Serenity remarked. "The Nesting Doll is - was - a unique ally to have. He was important to me, I owe my life to him."

"Perhaps," said Typhoony indifferently. "But he was not inclined to ally himself with us, and so he had to go."

"And if I do not feel so inclined?" Serenity arched an eyebrow.

"Great Technomagus," said DP, dropping to one knee after shooting Typhoony a look. "We would never wish to stand against you."

"So long as you don't wish to stand against us," smirked Matahari.

Serenity turned to her, narrowing her eyes. "And what if I do wish this? What are your swords going to do against me?"

"Not our swords," replied Mata. "This." She held up the Data Cube of Erlatz, now in her custody as the last member of the Sons of the Ultramorph. "We've been studying this thing for some time now, and we've learned... a great deal from it. A great deal."

"We could send you somewhere far away," said Typhoony. "Far enough away that we would never have to worry about seeing you ever again!"

"Enough!" snapped DisgruntledPorcupine. "Things aren't going to happen that way, brother!" Typhoony rolled his eyes, and DP turned to Serenity once again. "We have agreed that you are not to be harmed, great Technomagus. You are the greatest thing that has happened to this realm, and they will need you here to recover from this war."

"Give me the Data Cube," Serenity's tone expected no argument.

Typh and Mata looked at each other incredulously, and DisgruntledPorcupine quickly answered, "Uh, no can do, Serenity." He seemed slightly embarrassed to be denying her. "We're going to hold on to it... we're actually going to do some travelling!"

Serenity arched an eyebrow. "Oh?"

Typhoony stepped forward, coming face to face with her. "That's right. We choose to let you keep ruling here, because, basically, we have better things to do. There are worlds out there to explore, adventures to seek!"

Serenity met his gaze unflinchingly. "You still reek of your master, Beelzebub," she said with disgust.

"Not anyone's master anymore!" Typh said jovially, backing away with his arms outspread. "The Musketeers are the ones in charge now, clearly!" As he spoke, Matahari activated the Data Cube, and a doorway opened in midair beside them.

"Ready to go?" she asked, stashing the Cube once again. "I, for one, can't wait to see what's out there!" She tipped her hat and leapt through the portal.

"Good luck here, Technomagus!" DisgruntledPorcupine gave one last bow to the great leader. "I know that you'll rule justly, as always!" He followed Mata through the portal.

Typhoony smirked one last time, and looked into Serenity's glowing eyes, feeling great satisfaction that she had nothing left to say. "Remember us, Serenity," he stepped one foot through the portal, "And always remember, too..."

He flashed one last evil grin before leaving the plane forever. "We won."

The game has ended. The Musketeers have won Recruitment Mafia III! Team Beelzebub has been eliminated! Team Ultramorph has been eliminated! Team Serenity has been eliminated!

Generations had passed since The Musketeers set out across the Multiverse, and Serenity the Technomagus ruled the realm in relative peace and tranquility. As the centuries passed, however, her organic parts slowly began to atrophy, with more and more needing to be replaced by Lifeforce-infused circuitry. With it, her interest in the concerns of humanity and the trivial matters of mortality waned, and she grew more and more distant. Serenity's direct involvement with the affairs of ruling was seldom, if ever, needed... the systems and councils she had in place took care of running the realm.

One day, Serenity was simply gone...

As always Recruitment is a game for many and we will not limit the amount of people that can sign up. We can't run the game with under 30 and we prefer 40 or more. All players will start with a role, a clan, and no alignment. That is all players except the FOUR. In this game we will have FOUR group leaders. This is not a new concept with this game. The change here is we will have two leaders on the side of good and two leaders on the side of evil.

Roles

[Turnip Head]

The last one almost broke my heart. Rotten Musketeers. But you know I'm in.

[Tangrowth]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x 9001.

[Tangrowth]

Shame I didn't get to play RM3, but RM1 and RM2 were amazing, and RM1 still might just be my favorite game I've ever played.

[Black Rock]

Shame I didn't get to play RM3, but RM1 and RM2 were amazing, and RM1 still might just be my favorite game I've ever played.

RM1 is still my fav as well. That was such a nail biter and a new experience for me. RM3 was the first time everyone started out with a role. Aapje actually convinced me I should do it that way. I think it worked out well. It was easier for players to stay interested when they had something to do while waiting to be recruited.

[Black Rock]

The last one almost broke my heart. Rotten Musketeers. But you know I'm in.

They broke a lot of hearts and I think they all the way broke aapje. I will not try and force him in on this one. I would be real upset if you didn't play this one so I'm glad we didn't all the way break you.

[bea]

How do you write like that jerk Typh so well? It's like I can picture him talking..........


stopid typh.

For those who wanted to you can look at the third installment in that link. Unfortunately the first two were played on The Piano and are no longer online. This one is closer to the format of the fourth anyways.

I just blew my mind tonight. This game is going to be awesome!

[Tangrowth]

Can't wait BR!!!

[bea]

I just blew my mind tonight. This game is going to be awesome!

This news excites and frightens me.

[Turnip Head]

Stop hyping me up. I'm too hyped.

[G-Man]

I just blew my mind tonight. This game is going to be awesome!

I think I know exactly what you mean. There's nothing quite like giving yourself chills when constructing a game.

That said, I may have to play this Recruitment game to see the mechanism in all its glory. BR/LC games are what originally inspired me to aim for epic with every game I put together, small and large.

[Long Con]

And G-Man puts some of the greatest creative effort into his posts that I have ever seen. I can just remember The GAME and it's zany, malicious, cute, and kind of neurotic personality... it always reminded me of Flight of the Navigator when the Ship goes crazy.

[G-Man]

I won't deny that I have a gift with words but you guys have a real gift for constructing worlds and mythologies. I write pretty posts to make up for some of the simplicity of my ingredients. You guys have crafted some of the most well-thought-out, fully-realized games I've seen.

(No disrespect to any other hosts!)

[G-Man]

Oh, and for the record- I've never seen Flight of the Navigator.

No disrespect to me. I save my good ideas for stuff that could actually make me money.

Yeah, you know what I mean. I love the constructing part, the idea of beating my last good idea for the next game has become difficult. Tonight it smacked me in the head. I am so happy with how it's just going to start writing itself.

I echo this sentiment.

I love playing mafia, but there is nothing like game construction and then seeing how it plays out.

[DharmaHelper]

Maybe this time people will listen to me when I call out 90% o the baddies.

WTH? No.

[Black Rock]

As it should be. If not for you those roles would have not been larger than life. Could we expect you in RM4? It won't be for a loooooong time but you know how I feel about you needing to play our games. Please?

[bea]

RM3 is probably my favorite game and easily the win that I'm most proud of

Rude.

Game Elements
We will be repeating the Epic Challenge in this game. It was very fun last time around.
There will be two civvie teams and two baddie teams for the first time in a Recruitment game.
The Nesting Doll has heavily influenced this game. Every role is now a Nesting Doll. Each role will have 5 positions. Each night we will vote on the position for the next day.
For those that have no idea how this game even got to number 4 or how we run things Muh haha ha, or you can check out Recruitment three here http://forum.revolutionmafia.com/viewto ... =24&t=2168

This is the original Nesting Doll role:
The Nesting Doll

Chooses a position each night, 5 positions. Each position has to be used before they can be used again.
Position 1: Protected from Technomagus kill, also protects another player from a kill.
Position 2: Protected from Creeping Death’s kill, also deflects the kill from her to a random player also chooses another player to deflect a power from them.
Position 3: Protected from Ultramorph’s kill, also absorbs the same power as the Ultramorph and also chooses another player to absorb a power from.
Position 4: Protected from the Super Secret kill, also their vote counts as two the next day and also chooses another player’s vote to count as two.
Position 5: Protected from all kills, also takes two people off the next lynch poll.

EPIC CHALLENGE: If you are successfully able to avoid three kills on yourself you will then complete you Epic Challenge and gain a sixth position.
The Sixth Position: You will be able to choose which powers used on you to deflect that night.

You can see the format here. It will not be exactly the same, only the format. Also no individual will get to choose the position, it will be voted on.

This post will be updated as I take time to fill in the rest of the roles.

[Epignosis]

[Black Rock]

That was not a response I was expecting.

[Black Rock]

Also, all the roles that I have listed all completely flushed out. I won't be releasing the descriptions until every role is ready. Just in case it needs tweaking.

[Epignosis]

That was not a response I was expecting.

Those names...look menacing.

[Turnip Head]

Role names look exotic and intriguing. Incorporating the Nesting Doll in each role sounds like fun. I would like to sign up now please.

They should, it's going to be an evil game.

Hopefully soon enough.

[Long Con]

I think that having each role cycle through different powers as the nights go on will give another dimension to analyzing a player's game. Players will be voting on the next Position to go to, and some roles benefit more than others from some Positions. Maybe someone will REALLY need to rally to get Position 4 some night, and smarter players will think they know why... it's gonna be fun!

[bea]

Omg! My brainz are broke all ready!! Can't wait though!

[DharmaHelper]

The Scribe should have his own clan

If I end up playing this I will be quoting from the Book of Truth, the Scribes manifesto, daily.

[Black Rock]

I have updated the roles, you will find a link to them in the first post. I still have some roles to post but it is late and I am tired.

[Long Con]

Signups are on!

[Marmot]

Signups are on!

I don't believe it!

[Long Con]

Signups are on!

I don't believe it!

That matters not... Dawn of the Clans believes in you.
