Basically from memory you choose a number, and that number is a character you get profile, role and your mission all sent by PM.
Your role is hidden and your either is to let the good guys win, or the mafia.
Example you choose number 17
and I sent you a PM like
You are Rapunzel the Doctor
The Doctor-type role defends others at night. Typically, they will awaken at night after the Mafia have gone back to sleep and point at one person to protect; that person will survive any night-time attack. They are typically allowed to protect themselves, and are commonly barred from protecting the same target on successive nights
OR
You are Snow White's Evil Queen- the Godfather/ mother
Your job is to make sure that the Mafia wins, and to make sure that all the heroes loose and fail. You have the power to speak to your Mafia lackeys throughout PM and plan and plot with them, to insure a Mafia victory.
During the day, everybody keeps their roles hidden, while the Detective PM's a person [ only a number by day ]
and tries to guess who's behind the killings.
During the night, nobody can post, though some numbers will have special powers- example the serial killer can pick a number to wipe off each night [ If the Godfather is doing a good job of leadership, he shouldn't wipe off a fellow team-mate ]
To use these powers, you'll need to PM me a number.
You cannot post during night time.
You also cannot edit posts, so please think wisely before posting, if you want to play sneaky/ clever, it pays not to f* up !
- Doctors and Guardian Angels can choose a number to protect somebody, though you may end up protecting nobody, or even a traitor.
- A Hero might end up having a killing role, or might not. Somebody might be within the Mafia's control. So a Hero might end up killing a mind-control victim, or a mind-control victim might be helping the Mafia. So there MIGHT be more than one serial killer.
However if the detective catches the Godfather, it's game over, or if the Godfather and the mafia murders all the good guys, then the heroes loose.
Does this make sense ???
Basically- Good guys- stay alive, try and find out if there is anybody mind- controlled or not, find out who the detective is, and use him/ her to catch the criminal
Bad guys- use your best Prince Hans skills basically
Act all nice and innocent, but be a sneaky little sneak, behind the scenes.
Since I don't live in the USA, day and night times won't be within the US timezone.
