The Syndicate

Protagonists (3)
Potential additional wincons.



Abandoned as a pup,


Courage
He just knows something bad is going to happen, or his name is Quad Rabbitpunch. And it's not. [Secrets]


was found by


Muriel
'Oh my'
Muriel can use her rolling pin each Night to smack a player and block that player from targeting anyone. She knows Courage's identity. If she does ever choose to vote for Courage during a lynch phase, her vote will be worth 0.


who lives in the middle of Nowhere, with her husband,


Eustace Bagge
'Stupid dog! You make me look bad!'
This stubborn, grumpy farmer is always a quick, easy target whenever bad things happen. Eustace will randomly absorb any non-kill night power with which a player in his vicinity (meaning above or below him in a current poll) is targeted by a Mafia team member. The range will increase by 1 with every civilian mislynch and decrease by 1 with every mafia death (with the chance to drop to 0), regardless if he absorbs any power or not throughout a Night phase.




Secondary characters (11)




Policeman
'Hmmm'
He's a policeman, so...

Accuracy of the Policeman's role checks will worsen by 20% after every civ-alligned lynch and improve back by the same percentage (maxing at 100%) with every non-civ alligned lynch. False results will always be randomized. The Policeman's accuracy checks will not worsen below 20%.


Dr. Vindaloo
'Just keep soakin' it'
He's a doctor, so...

Dr. Vindaloo's power is traditional, hence not including healing/curing.


Nowhere Newsman
'Creepy stuff happens in Nowhere'
He's a reporter, so...



Professor Frith
Tracks every Night (Tracker style). In addition, can search to retrieve the Slab every Night. Also intercepts whatever [redacted] King Ramses [redacted]. If he successfully retrieves and holds on to the Slab for [redacted], he exits the game, victorious, and something else will happen. Professor Frith's tracking power will not be redistributed, if he exits the game.


Ma Bagge
For the purpose of the civilian wincon alone, Ma Bagge is considered a Protagonist subtitute for Eustace. Otherwise, vanilla.


Courage's Parents (2)
For the purpose of the civilian wincon alone, both parents are considered Protagonist substitutes for Courage. Either of them will appear as Courage if lynched, while Courage himself is still alive. If Courage dies before either of them, one of them will take over Courage's identity, but remain vanilla. Courage's parents also share BTSC.


Floyd
Becomes enraged when he receives votes or gets targeted. At the end of the fourth cycle in which he receives votes or is targeted, whichever cumulates first, if not lynched or killed by then, his rage will make him and, randomly, one of his voters or targeters explode.


Computer
'...you twit'
Has the answer to all your problems and the remedy to all your needs...you twits.
Each Night, Computer can help a player that has been afflicted or reward someone with a prize, but it will also challenge them first. The first players from each category (in need / seeking a prize) to PM the host with their requests, starting with the beginning of the Night phase, will get selected. Computer will give them a challenge to perform in the thread during the next Day phase; at the end of that phase, a winner will be declared. Winners cannot return with a new request on consecutive Nights. Computer will not be told the nature of the request from any participant involved. [Secrets]


Shirley the Medium
Cannot be lynched. Can curse or aid a player during every Night. [Secrets]


Space Dino
Hangs out in space, casually swinging his racket at various objects. Redirects every Night any power a player of his choice is targeted with to a random second player.





Katz
'I wish you hadn't done that'
Katz can release during each Night one of three spiders to attack a target:

Spider with purple head and red abdomen - Poisons its target, making it start every subsequent Day phase with a cumulative extra vote, until it's cured.
Spider with blue head and grey & dark striped abdomen - Paralyses its target, preventing it from posting during the subsequent Day phase.
Spider with red head and blue abdomen - Wraps its target in a web, preventing it from voting during the subsequent Day phase.

Katz must use all his spiders once before he can use them again. He permanently loses any spider that gets blocked or fails to successfully attack its target. Katz will be second in line to inherit the kill. If he kills, he cannot use his night power at the same time.


The Chicken from Outer Space
Kills nightly and finds out the victim's role. Once in the game, Chicken can also steal and use its target's power (or randomly one of several powers, in case its targets has more than one). If he kills, he cannot use his night power at the same time.


Dr. Le Quack
'Que-ce que c'est?'
Every odd Night, Le Quack can hit a target in the head with his mallet, blocking that target. Every even Night, Le Quack can hypnotize a target and force its vote during the subsequent Day phase.
Le Quack will be third in line to inherit the kill. If he kills, he cannot use his night power at the same time.


Snowman
'Prepare to meet your doom' [Secrets]



King Ramses
'Return the slab'
Cannot be night killed. [Secrets]

So let me make sure I understand - the civ win con starts dead or alive but if the protagonists all die the civ win con becomes only those who survive will win?

I have to sing farmer and the dell every day for my day job and every time I do I think of this mafia game in the queue.

So of course I have to sign up

i can't play this game because i've been fucking terrified of king ramses since i was seven

The best way to beat him is to be him

Or find the slab and return it

Hey Vomps it’s good to see you again!

This is tempting, especially because Rico is such an excellent host, but I can’t be in any mafia games here by the time my Champs game starts, so I’m thinking about it. If we can quickly get people, I’ll switch to in.

That's just Epi; he temporarily wanted his screenname changed to be in character for the U-Pick game.

*wanders around* hmm what is this? The theme is a good one.

Hi

I'll play. Got to get my post count to 1000.

Hey there, welcome! Hope you enjoy a game here.

Mine's getting dangerously close to 30,000.

Sigh. I'd still like to play, but at this point it'll have to be a very likely no unless this somehow lands in a golden window after my Champs game and before we move in July. Unfortunately, that somehow seems doubtful. So I'll switch to No for now. Bummer, since Rico games are always fun. You all will enjoy it I'm sure.

Oh, good point, Rico, didn't notice that. [mention]Owner of a Lonely Heart[/mention], make sure you vote in the poll to formally confirm your intent to play.

Come on in then- this one should be a quick game anyway if the slab has anything to say about it

I don't think I can commit at this moment. Sorry to get people's hopes up.

I don't get it. Were you a guest star in the show or something?

[mention]Golden[/mention] would make an appropriate mafia member in this game.

If this starts before school is over, I may be out-- but if it starts towards my last few days, I should be good.

If all are maybes switch to yes and Rico gives me four roles we could start the game tomorrow.
