Liar! Round TWO

[Ashstripe]

A few ground rules, witches win if there is only two people left or the number of witches happen to outnumber the survivors.

The number of roles can actually grow with the amount of players - perhaps even factions. Time being, it's just the Lawful and the Witches with one extra role. Since we have the bare minimum.

The Game will take place in Day and Night phases, by day, we all meet in the Town Hall and throw out wild accusations. Make sure you include VOTE, ASHSTRIPE or something similar(I ACCUSE ASHSTRIPE) in large bold letters. That'll make life easier on my part.

You may only have one vote per round and you may change your votes during the day as many times as you like - do it in a new post instead of modifying a previous one, please.

By Night, the Witch makes his/her move and kills whomever he/she deems a threat.

The Monk cannot be voted, but he can be killed - he will sway the course of the chaos left and right, so to whoever is the witch; think twice before killing him.

Hints are given through PM - whether I did actually send them is up to whether you believe me or not =). As a rule, I always at least send one. You may say "I found a note from Ashellius" or "The Monk told me someone can't be trusted.". You may reference as much or as little detail from the hints as you like.

E.g

"Ashellius told me that Rocky, 'Retchen and Yves can't be trusted. So I'm voting for Rocky.

I ACCUSE ROCKY."


Here are the Roles:

Citizen
Description: Witches!? Where!? What!? Where is Lord Ashellius!? Running just before the election isn't he? But Mortimer is right in assuming the Mayor's warning is correct - he's been right in the past after all, hasn't he?
Object of the Game: Kill all the Witches/Werewolves, whatever.
Abilities: None!

Witch
Description: Your cover's been blown, you(And your covenant) have managed to stay under the radar for a few years now, taking care in your pickings, satiating your lust for chaos and evil ever so lightly, but Ashellius has his suspicions of your identity and has declared a witch-hunt - remember, your not the only one heading towards the pillory, Ashellius isn't 100% certain and the village isn't 100% honest.

Times a tickin' and the noose is a weavin'.

Object of the Game: Kill anyone and everyone until the number of citizens becomes a 1:1 ratio with your covenant.
Abilities: Once per night phase, your covenant(Or yourself) must agree on one citizen that you will all murder. You can discuss this via PMs.

Greedy Farmer
Description: You've had your eye on a patch of land for a while and the owner of this land is an upstanding member of the community, who wholly owns this property through legal means. They have expressed no interest in selling it off, not for your highest offers or unlimited labour - blast it. This Witchunt is just the excuse you've been looking for to dispose of this inconvenient member.

Oh, and right, the Witch isn't such a great thing either - so you suppose you have to lynch them too.
Object of the Game: Get one citizen lynched(Assigned to you) and get the witch lynched
Abilities: None. Your just a bit more greedier than the average citizen - as of such, someone may just mistake you for the witch at night, when your really outside plotting your rival's demise.

Paranoid Citizen
Description: Witch!? WHAT!? Dear Lord above! This is most serious indeed! It's a good thing you've got all your survival gear prepared and those magical trinkets you bought from a passing friar all installed into your home.

Now it's just a matter of finding and disposing of this witch - but your no fool, your not going to trust the Monk or those silly trinkets entirely, no. Your going to stalk every citizen whenever you can and find out something about them.

Object of the Game: Get the Witch Lynched.
Abilities: Every night phase, you get to stalk one citizen and find out what they did - you won't get an exact answer but an idea of what they did and perhaps even their role.

Roster
Rocky
Dirgecallers
Peliot
Yves
'Retchen


Please, make sure you can come on, at least once a week, it isn't fair to the others if we have to wait - after all, someone might want to join in but can't interrupt the current round.

In the interests of time, the game is to be played Out of Character, I'm also interested in seeing how well this works.

[Rocky]

I wanna be in this round =)

So this'll be in OOC? Cool

[dirgecallers]

Can I join too?

[Peliot]

How about me? May I join as well?

[Yves]

I'll join ^_^

[ferretface]

I'm in, again...hoping for some more luck on 'Retchen's side this time!

[Rocky]

Yea... *rubs back of neck* Sorry 'bout that last time, 'Retchen... I, uh... Hope you wont take revenge... heh

[Ashstripe]

XD. Yes, young Rocky didn't quite get the right answer of the hint and it worked conveniently to Yves' advantage.

And of course you can all join! I endorse it! Recommend it! Or else..

I'd like to wait a few more days, just to give a chance for some other members to join - I don't want to end up with members sitting on the sidelines again, at least without ample opportunity.

[Ashstripe]

That's ample enough opportunity. Roles have been handed out. Hop to it.

[ferretface]

Mph, all OOC, mm? In that case...

"I don't trust Peliot. I need no reason besides...personal...stuff. Yeah.

I ACCUSE PELIOT!"

[Rocky]

"Aye. Same here. I believe Peliot to be a witch. Acting all innocent."

I ACCUSE PELIOT!

[Yves]

I'd ask for evidence, but Skipper foresaw this particular trouble, and has already seen to it that I'm aware of his reasoning. I didn't trust him last time, and that was a mistake. I'll give him a go this time, although if Peliot proves innocent, he'll have a few things to answer for...

I vote for Peliot.

[Ashstripe]

Well, isn't this a doozy and a half? Peliot can attempt to prove his innocence until Sun down. I did hand out hints after all .

There are two witches among our group of five.

Would've worked better in a group of six, but I had planned on introducing one more witch this time around. Shame, since odds are we'll have two night phases at best - I only now realised my error ^^;

Meh, I'll refine this all as we go. Such as roles to counter the witches assaults.

Night Phase begins Wednesday the 15th of April.

[dirgecallers]

I don't know...you seem pretty suspicious yourself...

SKIPPER YOU ARE THE WITCH!

[Rocky]

How do I seem suspicious? I voted for someone, just like you. I guess that makes you suspicious? I assure you, again. If you lynch me, you will be ridding yourself not of the witch, but of a farmer. I have done nothing wrong my entire life. I stay at home, tilling my land and growing my crops. If you dont see me at night, that is because I sleep at night. I am not the witch. I assure you.

But... Perhaps you are the witch, again?

[Peliot]

" I am shocked and appalled that you would accuse me, a simple farmer of being a witch. I stay at home tending to my small patch of land, and only go to town once a month to buy seeds and a few small things my family needs to survive. All I have ever done is care about each of you. I've helped each and every one of you in some way in the twenty years my family has lived here. If you kill me who is to take care of my wife and six children? I have gone to mass every Sunday for my entire life. I don't believe a witch, the spawn of Lucifer could set foot in a church and not burn. I have a note from the lord Ashellius himself that says he doesn't trust Dirgecallers and I believe my mayor."

I accuse Dirgecallers

[Ashstripe]

Remember, Out of Character. No need to play any parts here . Think of it as you would like a...Video game, "Yeah my Mage is level 23 and he's gonna go kill some big goblin."

And a very be-lated Night-Phase begins.

Citizen Peliot has been hung! There is an outcry of boo's, hisses and cheers from the crowd as he ascends the gallows. The black mask of the executioner holding no pity or remorse for the deed that is to be done, the blindfold is offered but refused. Peliot will enter the next life with his eyes open.

He mutters a prayer and stares out at the spitting, hissing mass that was formally his township.

And there is a loud cheer, somewhere in between the cries of joy there is the snapping of a neck - drowned in the praises to the Lord and the executioner.

Yet the aura still settles upon the town, it is dark and foreboding and has nothing to do with the sunset - a presence that still weighs upon the collective shoulders of the farmers present.

Let us all pray that we see the sunrise again..



Begin the Nightphase.

Please send me PMs for your abilities if you wish to use them - the Paranoid Citizen(If still alive ), can still potentially turn this around.

[Ashstripe]

Oh deary me, I must structure these games better. Sorry everyone ^^;. Next round, I promise we'll have more then two night-phases.

"Citizen Rocky! Citizen 'Retchen!" Dirgecallers raced down the streets and paths towards the hall, for he had discovered a startling revelation late last night.

He quickly reached the doors and swung them open without a second thought, his mouth moved more quickly than his eyes, "Citizen Yves is a-ooorng...". Dirgecallers fell without more than a breath, Yves in tow, smiling at a job well done.

'Retchen had heard the cries, he raced towards the town centre, he knew this path well, he had traversed it many times in the past. Yet every corner led to another identical alley-way, every wall was the same, even the number of rats crawling along the ground...What was going on here? He could hear the screams of Citizens, yet could do nothing to prevent this disaster from unfolding...

Rocky gently laid down the now twitching 'Retchen, smirking to himself, 'Retchen would not be waking from that 'nightmare' for a long, long time - say, eternity.



Game Over

Yeah I know, I messed up, again. But, third times a charm right?

[dirgecallers]

Dang, so Yves and Rocky were the witches?

I mean....


I didn't see that one coming

[Yves]

Yeeeeah... didn't need to try too hard on this one, so I didn't XD
