A game for 19 players

This game is brought to you by Epignosis and Metalmarsh89.

Civilians [14]

Win by eliminating Yubaba and Co.

Sen (Chihiro Ogino) --- Sen is a 10-year old human girl who wandered into Yubaba’s domain as a result of her parents’ curiosity and greed. She signed a contract with Yubaba, protecting her, and giving her a job at Yubaba’s hotel. --- Because Sen signed a contract with Yubaba, she cannot be turned into an animal by her. However, Sen still yearns to save her parents who were turned into pigs, and return to the human world. Sen may search each night for the help of another player to achieve this. (Secrets)

Haku --- Haku is a dragon, and was once a river guardian in the human world, but he was forced to move on when the river was overrun by humans, and is now under the control of Yubaba. --- Haku begins the game under Yubaba’s control. If Sen finds Haku, he will be freed from Yubaba’s control. (Secrets)

Lin --- Lin is a friendly and respected employee at the bathhouse, and tries to make those around her comfortable.

Kamaji --- Kamaji works hard in the boiler room, with the help of the Susuwatari. He’s a cranky but kindly old geezer, and his six lengthy arms help him get the job done. --- Kamaji may add a vote to any player during a lynch six times during the game. If the Susuwatari do not keep up their hard work, then Kamaji will lose one of his extra votes each time.

Susuwatari [4] --- Susuwatari (wandering soot) are little soot beings that work for Kamaji. They have been put under a spell and given life, but must work to keep that life. --- Susuwatari must work hard each day to maintain their status as living beings. Together, they must combine to meet a daily post quota (dependent on their number and the game population), otherwise the spell will break, and impact Kamaji.

Chichiyaku --- Chichiyaku is the bath manager in Yubaba’s hotel, and to suit his position, he is a bit brusque. --- Chichiyaku may redirect another player’s night target on even nights. Chichiyaku will distribute a Bath Token on odd nights.

Aniyaku --- Aniyaku is Chichiyaku’s assistant, and shares his personality. --- Aniyaku may target a player each odd night and force that player’s lynch-vote for the following day. Aniyaku will distribute a Bath Token on even nights.

Aogaeru --- Aogaeru is a frog-like creature with a good scent for unwanted beings, such as humans. --- Aogaeru may send a message to the thread through the hosts each night.

Kaonashi --- Kaonashi is a No-Face, a powerful creature that feeds off the emotions of those around him. --- Kaonashi may target a player each night. In doing so, he will gobble that player up and steal their power to use for himself that night.

Oshira-sama --- Oshira is the Radish Spirit. He is large and imposing yet also endearing. --- Oshira may hide another player each night, removing that player from the following lynch poll.

Zeniba --- Zeniba is Yubaba’s older and more powerful twin sister, she is actually more laidback and refined. Zeniba enjoys knitting, baking cookies, and living in a small rural home. --- Zeniba may invite another player to her cottage each night, protecting that player from death. But her magic will continue to linger through the following day phase, cursing that player.

Yubaba and Co. [4]

Win by eliminating the civilians.

Yubaba --- Yubaba is the younger of the two twin sorceress sisters. But she is the most ambitious and avaricious. Yubaba enjoys gold, good business, and turning humans into animals. --- Each night, Yubaba may turn another player into an animal for the following day. Animals cannot post in the thread or vote in the lynch poll.

Boh --- Yubaba’s giant and powerful baby son. Boh just wants a friend to play with, but he also doesn’t want to play outside for fear of getting sick. --- If any player targets Boh with a night action, he plays with them instead, blocking them. (Secrets)

Kashira --- Kashira are Yubaba’s three bouncing and rolling pet heads. They grunt, but otherwise appear to be mute. --- Kashira may silently add a vote to any player during a lynch three times during the game.

Yu-Bird --- This vulture-like bird acts as a scout and a spy for Yubaba. --- Yu-Bird may track another player each night.

Unknown Being [1]

Win by ?????

Stink Spirit --- He stinks something awful. None of the folks at the bathhouse are willing to go near him, and wish to keep him out. --- The Stink Spirit cannot be lynched or nightkilled. (Secrets)

Some of the Rules

1) Day periods last 48 hours. Night periods last 24 hours.
2) No double-targeting (targeting the same player on consecutive nights). No self-targeting either.
3) All players on the side of the winning faction will win, whether they are dead-or-alive.
4) Role-claiming is not permitted. Info-Dumping is not permitted either.
5) Participation Requirements will be in effect this game. If you miss a combination of 3 lynch-votes and/or night actions, your Score will be negatively affected. You may pass on your night action, but you must PM the Hosts that you are doing so.

Psst, Jay, now's your chance to play an Epignosis game. Sort of.

You swore. I'm telling the pastor.

I'll play. I prefer Ninja Scroll and Princess Mononoke though.

Posted: **Mon Feb 29, 2016 12:16 am**

Princess Mononoke is on my short list of favorite films.

Posted: **Mon Feb 29, 2016 12:17 am**

awww yeah

Posted: **Tue Mar 01, 2016 4:26 pm**

This reminds me of when I was most definitely not a doctor, rather a no face cosplayer...

Posted: **Tue Mar 01, 2016 5:17 pm**

Looks awesome!

Posted: **Tue Mar 01, 2016 5:30 pm**

I wish I could, but the timing makes it impossible. I love the film though, and the others being discussed in this thread.

I bet if MM was hosting by himself, you'd sign up.

I'm going to stick to Heist games for a while until life is a little less busy.

That and I've never been a fan of anime.

This one was actually reproduced by Disney with English voice actors for what it's worth.

But I understand. On the flipside, I don't think I could be convinced to watch a Batman movie.

Posted: **Wed Mar 02, 2016 1:07 pm**

I would love to play this too, but Battle of the Hosts is coming up, and I'm still in 2 games that I shouldn't even probably be in to begin with right now, especially since I'm not as far along on PhD research projects as I'd like to be for this point in the semester. So... I'll have to start phasing myself out of playing mafia again I think.

Not to mention that a Heist you said "you have to" play is coming up.

Just surrender mate.

Posted: **Fri Mar 04, 2016 8:10 pm**

I am overextended, but Ilook forward to watching

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2016 12:00 pm**

12 more signups needed. One of those spots could be yours!

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2016 5:49 pm**

So... Depending on when this starts I may need to go to replacement status.

Posted: **Mon Mar 07, 2016 9:51 pm**

changed my vote to replacement, i really cant commit at this time but i'll enjoy reading along

just watched this movie recently for the first time and absolutely loved it, it's a great theme for a mafia game

Posted: **Tue Mar 08, 2016 1:48 am**

I'm still /in and will not budge at any time.

Posted: **Tue Mar 08, 2016 2:38 pm**

Thanks Sloon!

With the number of games we've got running right now, it doesn't surprise me if this takes a while to fill up.

Posted: **Tue Mar 08, 2016 3:40 pm**

I do need one of my current games to end before this one starts if I have any hope of remaining sane.

Posted: **Sun Mar 13, 2016 3:38 pm**

I'd seriously like to but I don't want to get into too many games at once. We'll see where I end up soon.

Posted: **Wed Mar 16, 2016 9:11 am**

Let's keep this ball Rollin! I've never seen this, because I don't want my spirit to fly away. I usually just drink it.

I switched to in. Sign ups are slow, so I don't think this will conflict with my current games or with modding Downton.

Posted: **Fri Mar 18, 2016 11:56 am**

Excellent folks! Only 9 more players to go.

Posted: **Fri Mar 18, 2016 4:15 pm**

Depending on when you ask me, this is my favorite movie of all time. I'm in.

Posted: **Fri Mar 18, 2016 7:03 pm**

I love this movie. I love speed games. I've just finished a speed game. I'm in!

Posted: **Sat Mar 19, 2016 9:49 am**

Posted: **Sun Mar 20, 2016 2:01 am**

Slow down! I'm still in the thick of the Battle of the Hosts.

Cool, I've never played a Marmot game.

If this game starts while Turf Wars is still raging I'll probably be slow for the first couple phases.
