Lucky's Dad

You're Lucky's Dad! On a night of your choosing you may activate, and force all* night actions to target you. This ability can be roleblocked IF the block is originally aimed at you, but will NOT be stopped if a block would be redirected to you. If you attract both kills and protection, you will die if you attract more kills than protection or survive if you attract an amount of protection equal to or greater than kills.

*this will not effect passive or self-targeting actions, and there may or may not be one or more abilities that counteract this.

You’re a two shot tracker. Also kind of a nerd, I guess. Anyways, twice during the game you can target a player at night at see who they visit, if anyone.

Vanilla Town

Man, can you imagine how much it must suck to play a high power role madness game and not get a cool role? Haha, yeah. Anyways, you're vanilla town, good luck.

Ra’s al Ghul

You are a JOAT! You have three different one shot abilities:

1x tracker: target a player at night and learn who they visit, if anyone.
1x vanilla cop: target a player at night and learn if they are vanilla or not (goon will also scan as vanilla)
1x loyal poison: target a player at night to poison them. The player poisoned will be announced at SOD. If they are town, they will die at EOD. If they are mafia, they will not die at EOD.

KZA

You are KZA. Not literally. Probably? Guess we'll find out. Anyways, in a plot twist, instead of being the one that gets shot, you're the one that can do the shooting! You have a compulsory day one vig shot. You can take this shot privately, by messaging the hosts with a target (cannot be rescinded once submitted). If you do not submit a target by the cutoff, one will be randomized. You may also take your shot by posting "KZA [target]" in thread and tagging the hosts.

Arsonist

Starting n1 you can douse one person per night. You may instead choose to ignite, killing all the players you have previously doused. You may not douse and ignite in the same night. Both your douses and your ignites can be roleblocked but will pierce normal protection.

DrWilgy

You are DrWilgy, and you are most definitely a doctor! You're also a parity cop. Exciting! Each night, you may choose one of two actions.

He protecc:

Target a player and prevent one normal kill against them. Note that there may be modifiers that can pierce protection, and if your target is targeted by multiple kill attempts, you will only stop one.

He inspecc:

You may target a player. You will receive a result of either "Square" or "Hip cat." One of these results corresponds to town, the other to mafia, but you do not know which.

You may only use one action each night, and you may not self target with either. Good luck!

Maybe We Should Just Kill Wilgy?

You are aware that a role called "DrWilgy" exists in this game. You are not aware of who holds this role or what their alignment is. If you end the day voting for them and they die either that day or the following night, you will inherit their role. Until that time, you are Vanilla.

Stirner

You are a one shot backup. The first player to die, you get their role. Even if it’s a crappy one. Them’s the breaks. Until you receive your role, you are counted as vanilla. When you receive your new role, you will receive a one shot version of it.

Toxic Masons

You’re a mason! Your partner is [partner], and your mason chat is here: [discord link]

You’re also toxic! If you and your partner [redacted]. Fun!

Sloonei wrote: ↑Sun Feb 13, 2022 6:39 pm How did the soup mechanics work? How much info did the mafia team have about all the roles?

not much. we had a n0 result on a random player (was on nutella) as an exchange for having to kill someone in our faction (dya's loyal day vig). we then used dizzy's 1-shot rolecop on belzy because we figured belzy+porscha were linked

then we only had the info town shared, so we figured falcon was town JOAT. i think we speculated on you being the gift giver, but it was a risky soup

yeah syn posted the soup in spec chat. It failed because dya had me as the gift giver.

Why did you think I was that?

dya received an immunity ability on n1.

"Cuirass of the Savior’s Hide

You have received an item! It is the Cuirass of the Savior’s Hide. While you possess this item, you are immune to any non-lethal negative actions taken against you. This includes kill modifiers, but not kills themselves. You will be told if/when you lose possession of this item."

you softed that you were self-clearing in some way + i looked and you were the creator of a game that used a similar ability (and we were aware roles were assigned to people, not randomized) + you were reading dya as town. i dunno, it was really just speculation so i'm surprised they went for the soup with that with only 1 scum left. but, dya didn't have much time to play and was loverized to sabie so i can totally understand wanting to take a leap, i just would've erred on the more cautious side

Oh nice, I was feeling jilted because I hadn’t seen any Elder Scrolls mechanics in this game.
