Avant-Garde Mafia 2: The Ultimate Dimensional Battle
It’s Mafia like you’ve never seen it before: Avant-Garde style. Well, wait, maybe you have. But it is different this time. The stakes are exponential, the scope is omnidimensional.
This time it is ultimate.
With special guest: Ziltoid the Omniscient!
"YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!"And others. But Ziltoid says they're not important.
Civvies (15)
Non-Musicians (3)
• The Omnidimensional Creator – Creator of everything in the omniverse, he now finds himself threatened by evil beings. Despite being the creator of all matter, he really is not that articulate or intelligent and speaks in a matter befitting a stereotypical male surfer in his 20s rather than a mystical being. He can resurrect any player of his choice twice in the game, but when he attempts to do so he may be too distracted (or stupid, as scientists have not determined which) to execute it with complete success. A coin is flipped; if heads, The Omnidimensional Creator chooses the player to be resurrected. If tails, the player is randomly selected from those currently dead. The Omnidimensional Creator automatically survives the first night kill attempt against him.
• Captain Spectacular – Has joined the human forces to lead them in battle against his enemy Ziltoid. As a man of incredible insight, he can see right through Ziltoid’s façade. Consequently, he is impervious to being affected by Ziltoid and his army, and if he is targeted by any member of Ziltoid’s army he uncovers his targeter’s identity with what he believes to be perfect accuracy. In reality, his accuracy in determining his enemy in this scenario really is closer to perhaps forty, fifty, or sixty percent. Let’s go with fifty.
• Residents Fanboy – Listens to no other music but The Residents and knows more about them than anyone else. The only thing he does not know is their true identities, and is incredibly desperate to, even going so far as to steal Mr. Skull’s previous red eyeball mask. Consequently, he is impervious to being affected by The Residents, and if he is targeted by of them he uncovers his targeter’s identity with what he believes to be perfect accuracy. In reality, his accuracy in determining his enemy in this scenario really is closer to perhaps forty, fifty, or sixty percent. Again, fifty is probably a safe bet for an accurate estimation.
Musicians (12)
• Frank Zappa – As a master composer and bandleader, Zappa attempts to find new high-quality musicians to jam with and thus selects one player of his choice every night. If the player he finds is a non-musician, nothing happens. If the player he finds is a musician, something happens. If the player he finds is specifically Captain Beefheart, Zappa and Beefheart additionally gain BTSC for the remainder of the game. If the player he finds is a member of the Residents, something bizarre happens. (Secrets)
• Captain Beefheart – Now abandoned by his entire magic band, all that Captain Beefheart has at his disposal are his rotten fish heads. He throws a fish head at any player of his choice other than himself every night, causing them to stink the entire subsequent day period. He gains BTSC with Frank Zappa if found by him. (Secrets)
• Mike Patton – Impersonates a player of his choice every odd night and subsequently attempts to mimic that player’s persona the subsequent night. Mike Patton has a fifty percent chance of successfully mimicking his target and a fifty percent chance of failing. Whether by intention or mistake, Mike Patton does not fare so well on attempting to impersonate beings of mystic or evil proportions, decreasing his chances of success. Those particularly evil may resist even still too fiercely.
• Fred Frith – Conducts a march every night. One coin is flipped, plus one more if Chris Cutler is still alive. For each coin that flips heads, he can choose one player and force that player to join his march for the subsequent day's activities. Any player caught in Frith’s march must vote the way Frith wants them to and must not make it obvious they were forced. Has BTSC with Chris Cutler.
• Chris Cutler – Throws his drumsticks every night at any two players of his choice in an attempt to role block them. A coin is flipped; if it flips heads, then both players are role blocked. If tails, nothing happens. Has BTSC with Fred Frith.
• John Cage – Silences one player of his choice every night, excluding them from the subsequent day's activities. (Secrets)
• Steve Reich – This composer strives for structure and proper strategy; he closely watches his fellow players in an attempt to make sense of night actions. On Night 1, he selects three individuals whose actions he wants to track with his tape recorder, and each night thereafter he adds a new player to his tracked group. He can drop any one given player from his tracking group during any night period as well, but is not required to. He can see the targets of all the players in his tracking group but is not aware which target belongs to which player, normally. If certain patterns occur in his group’s night targets, however, he gains even more knowledge. (Secrets)
• Iannis Xenakis – This incredibly influential composer utilizes mathematical models in his music that at times even enable him to influence the fabric of spacetime. Each day and night he arranges his group of musicians and conducts them in one of his compositions; if feeling particularly inspired, he is actually able to tamper with the forces of time itself. Consequently, Xenakis may end up to one day and two nights of his choice early throughout the game.
• ChaotH – This avant-garde metal bassist is more than accustomed to time signature changes, allowing him to be a master of sleight of hand and agility. By the end of every day, he can select a player of his choice and assist that player in dodging the time limits of the coming night. The player he assists will consequently be able to use their night power twice within that same night, but will be too tired to use their power the subsequent night, or the next time the player would typically use their power if not every night. If ChaotH targets a player who does not have a night power that night, nothing happens.
• Moondog – This blind musician, nicknamed "The Viking of 6th Avenue", considers himself an independent crusader of justice, but will only strike others if he feels he is being threatened or misunderstood. Once he feels he is being adequately threatened, Moondog will use his spear and all of his willpower to attack any perceived enemies. If he loses the means or will to do so, he then wanders the streets in hopes of concealing himself. (Secrets)
• Damo Suzuki – This crazed singer has a personal bag of mushrooms he can tap into every night. Others might consider him an expert on the matter of such substances, but he is really too inarticulate most of the time to even consider the thought himself. He can grab one mushroom at random out of his bag every night to use on himself or on another player of his choice. Unbeknownst to Damo, there may be a few other random non-mushroom items in that bag as well. (Secrets)
• Exuma – Conducts a ritual every night to keep away the evil spirits and curse those willing to cross his path. (Secrets)
Ziltoid the Omniscient’s Army (4)
Ziltoid's team kills every odd night.
• Ziltoid the Omniscient – The ultimate fourth-dimensional guitar hero searches all across the omniverse for the ultimate cup of coffee. Unsatisfied by what Earth has to offer, he decides instead to conquer the planet and take control of the entire omniverse. Benefits greatly if Captain Spectacular is lynched. (Secrets)• Commander Squizloid – Ziltoid’s right hand man and second in command. He absorbs every night action that Ziltoid is targeted with until death. His most important role is commanding the army’s back-up fleets. (Secrets)
• Ziltoidian Monk – He prays every night for the safety of Ziltoid and his comrades. If his prayer is successful, any members on his team may live to see another day. Naturally, he prays harder for his own survival than anyone else’s, however. (Secrets)
• The Greys – Shapeshift into whatever they want every even night. Have a unique power that Ziltoid bestowed upon them. (Secrets)
The Residents (4)
The Residents kill every even night.
• Mr. Skull – Likes to cause chaos and confusion. Benefits greatly if Residents Fanboy is lynched. (Secrets)• Blue Eyeball – Likes to cause chaos and confusion. (Secrets)
• Green Eyeball – Likes to cause chaos and confusion. (Secrets)
• Brown Eyeball – Likes to cause chaos and confusion. (Secrets)
Duo of Destruction (2)
• The Mysterious Voice – Master and controller of many alternate dimensions. It is looking to invade and fully conquer the third dimension, and its first step in doing so is enslaving mankind and anything else that gets in its way. (Secrets)
• Herman the Planet Smasher – Enlisted by the Mysterious Voice to do his bidding. Likes to smash stuff, especially planets and people. Oh, and he hates musicals. (Secrets)
