The Syndicate

Thomas the Tank Engine Mafia

The Sodor Steamworks



Thomas – He’s a really useful engine!
Being really useful, Thomas is always helpful and convincing. His vote each Day is worth three.



Percy – Junior engine who is learning the ropes and pulls the mail cars.
Percy has the opportunity to take on a new steamy ability each Night, but can use the ability only once!



Gordon –The proud engine who pulls the Express.
On two occasions, Gordon can pull another engine with him along the Express line, protecting himself and his target from all Night actions.



James – Vain and egotistical, he likes to tell others what they can and cannot do.
James may role block anyone at Night.



Henry – An old accident-prone engine who is unwell at times.
On one occasion, Henry may switch the decommission vote to any player of his choice.



Edward – A grand old back engine who even gets along with the Troublesome Trucks!
Targets anyone each Night, helping them pull their load and giving that player twice their ability the next Night.



Toby – The old trolley engine. “Well let’s say he’s square!”
Tracks anyone at Night, finding out who that person targeted.



Emily – The newest member of the Sodor Steamworks just wants to be included!
*Secret*


Narrow Gauge Engines
These smaller engines will search for one another each Night. If they find one of their own, they earn permanent BTSC.


Skarloey


Rheneas


Sir Handel


Peter Sam


Rusty


Duncan


Dirty Diesels
Have BTSC and scrap a player each night. The scrapping can not be blocked!



‘Arry – Biff!
Biffs someone each Night, making their talk silly!



Bert – Bash!
Bashes someone each Night, blocking that individual!



Mavis - A feisty diesel engine, Mavis doesn't take kindly to advice.
Mavis has spent quite a bit of time with the Steamies, and she knows how to do their jobs very well. Like Percy, she can use one Steamy ability, but only once!


Diesel 10 – All of the other engines are afraid of Diesel 10, and Diesel 10’s claw, “Pinchy!”
He uses Pinchy to prevent someone from voting the next Day.

The Fat Controller



Sir Topham Hatt
Cannot be lynched or Night killed. Each Night, he may direct the target of one of the engines as he sees fit, or he may decide who runs the special, taking that engine’s name off the poll the next Day. He loses his position if there is too much confusion and delay (that is to say, all eight main steam engines are lost).

Sure!

I am in.

I want to stress that Elohcin's game is a very straightforward Mafia experience. There are no secrets except what Emily is capable of, and there is no vote manipulation except Thomas' vote.

If you are new to Mafia or prefer a more straightforward game, please sign up.

And if you have a potty mouth, leave that at the station please.

I will play. It will be nice to have a straightforward game after the madness of Twin Peaks and Video Game

Yay I've been waiting for sign ups

Amen. This looks like it will be a breath of delightfully straightforward fresh air.

I will hop aboard. (If some newbie wants to play and there is no place I will consider alighting at the next station)

I'm in for the first time!

Yes, please

Hi everyone! This is my first game ever! I'm sooo excited!

This post made my morning.

Also, I'm in.

I'm trying to get my younger brother to play. I've talked to him about mafia and he has a general idea of what it is, but he hasn't really had the free time to jump in yet. He's not doing much on summer break this year, so I figure a slightly more straight-forward game might be a better way to get him in. I should know later tonight if he'll be in or not.

I'm happy to play with you too.

Only eight more seats left! Would be awesome to leave the station this weekend!

Glad to have you playing as well, Matt! I hardly recognize you anymore without your signature cat avatar, lol. How is everything?

I get tired of having the same avy everywhere, so here I used Cloudchaser. Everything's alright, mostly the same as it's always been. How are you?

Cheers, Boogs!

Great to find you here as well, Snowy!

... and I suspect Elohcin is the lovely Mrs. Epignosis. I must say, you have some mighty pretty vocals.

Makes sense. Good to hear. I'm doing pretty well, actually. Just driving myself a bit on the insane side with all the CPA exam studying, but I'm on my last part now (10 days until the exam), assuming I passed the third I just took last week. So it will be a huge relief when that's all over, but I can't even really complain about all of that too much. I've been working part-time up at my university since January so that I have much more time to worry about all of it, and I'm so glad I went that route. Will be starting a new job at a CPA firm in June, so that's exciting.

I think being able to play a few mafia games all the while studying has kept me sane (or insane) in the duration because whenever I need a good 10 minute break or so I just read up on the thread. When I'm done, I'll finally get to do... other things that I don't currently have time for, lol, like tennis, reading books, composing, or even just spending more time with family or friends than I currently am able to.

Good luck with the exam.

Hopefully you'll get a well deserved break soon.

I am so sorry but I am going to back out of this game. It looks like fun but I have been very sensitive when playing recently due to rl. I would hate to suck all the fun out of this game for a player.

You'll be missed!

But I did set up the poll so that people can change their votes.

Mmm funny it won`t let me change my vote better check your permissions.

Roxy wrote:Mmm funny it won`t let me change my vote better check your permissions.

I can change mine. I checked the poll and the relevant box was checked.

Roxyyyyyyy Play with us sweetness
