The Fall of Númenor
A game for 13 players
A game for 13 players
The year is 3319 of the Second Age. Under the leadership of its King, Ar-Pharazôn, Númenor is preparing itself for war against the Valar in the Undying Lands. Nearly all preparations are complete; however, there is a slight problem. The King's advisor, Sauron, has discovered that agents of The Elendili have infiltrated the King's court. Luckily, he has already devised a plan to root them out...
As the title suggests, this game is based on the events leading to the destruction of the Númenóreans. Yes, it is Lord of the Rings themed! No knowledge of the theme is necessary, though.
The Elendili form the informed minority (mafia), while the Loyalists form the uninformed majority (town).
Setup Information
Three out of these four Loyalist roles are present in the game:
- Loyalist Healer (Doctor): Each night, you may protect any player (including yourself) from kills. You win when all of the Elendili are dead.
- Loyalist Gaoler (Jailkeeper): Each night, you may protect any player (excluding yourself) from kills, and prevent them from taking any action. You win when all of the Elendili are dead.
- Loyalist Hunter (Tracker): Each night, you may track any player (excluding yourself) to learn whom they visited, if anyone. You win when all of the Elendili are dead.
- Loyalist Investigator (Parity Cop): Each night, you may inspect any player (including yourself) to learn whether they are Quenya or Sindarin. One of these groups corresponds to the Loyalists and one corresponds to the Elendili, but you do not know which is which. You win when all of the Elendili are dead.
The rest of the Loyalists receive the following role:
- Loyalist (Vanilla): You win when all of the Elendili are dead.
The Elendili have a different power each night, in addition to their factional kill (there is no factional kill on N0):
- N0, Fruit of Nimloth: Target any player to secretly make them execution-immune for Day One.
- N1, Palantír: Target any player to learn their role, or target yourself to learn which Loyalist role is not present in the setup.
- N2, Sceptre of Andúnië: Target any player to make them action-immune, or target the player performing your factional kill to make it go through protection.
- N3, Barahir's Ring: Use any power from Palantír or Sceptre of Andúnië.
- N4+, Narsil: If there are an odd number of players, target any player to kill them.
