Yep we're going back to the game that pretty much got me the title Salsa the luckless. but with a tweeeeeest! You see, it's been over two years since Reverse Mafia, I think we're about due for another round. So here's the setup.
Terms
Just for Clarification.
sacrifice- a lynch
death-match- double lynch

Setup
The village of Townstonia is in ashes. The ravens feed upon the flesh of the fallen. Only the faint howls of the damned are heard in eerie twilight.

But the ravens are far from alone.

A dark figure strides into the square, once vibrant and thriving, now reeks with rot and death. He pulls a tome from his concealing robes and begins to recite the ancient words. Power, dark and ravenous, sweeps from his out stretched hand and into the blood-stained ground. The earth groans, then shrieks, in protest as vast caverns, towering spires, and imposing walls flowed into existence.

His work finished, the dark figure places an enchantment on the door.

“To all those who wish to test their strength, to all those who wish for treasure beyond their wildest dreams, to all those who dare, I beckon you,” the man chants as he does his work.

He smiles as he settles into his throne. For the Dark Lord Salsa, this is only the beginning.

Roles
Elected

The Dungeon Master- The Dark Lord's right-hand man, er, being. Selected from the cream of the crop on the first day. Being so close to the top brings untold power.
Let there be blood- Upon being named, the Dungeon Master can pick a person to be sacrificed to the Dark Lord, but he must act quickly and choose wisely.
Fight…TO THE DEATH!- The Dungeon Master can declare a death-match between two people twice. The loser dies, the victor gets the honor of dying upon the Dungeon Master's sword.
Blood for the Dark Lord- The Dungeon Master's vote counts twice
Foolish to fight me alone- While at least one Blood Knight lives, the Dungeon Master cannot be attacked successfully.

The Keeper of the Keys- Second to the Dungeon Master, the Keeper of the Keys is selected at the same time as the Dungeon Master. He too also has terrible power.
Preserve the blood, preserve yourself- The Keeper can halt two sacrifices to the Dark Lord.
Stronger than you think- Like the Dungeon Master, the Keeper cannot be successfully attacked while at least one Blood Knight lives.

Forces of Darkness

The Dark Champion(1)- The sword arm of the Dark Lord, this being can kill once a night. Since he is also the Dark Lord's Champion he has two night lives.

The Shaman(1)- Skilled in the ways of blood and bone, the Shaman can give one person an extra nightlife every other night. He can also give two people their lives back after being killed (the people not the Shaman).

The Witch(2)- Powerful spells are a trifle to you. You can protect one person from one a attack a night.

The Beholder(1)- An ancient being that has seen much and knows more. You can find out if how many Adventurers voted for someone to be sacrificed, ask whether someone follows the Dark Lord twice, or paralyze someone for one day and one night.

The Trap Master(1)- You handle the traps around the Dark Lord's keep. The first person to come to you for any reason at night dies. The only exception is the Rogue.

Blood Knight(2)- You guard the Dungeon Master and the Keeper of the Keys with your life. You have a one in twenty chance of killing your opponent if your charges are attacked.

Minion(the rest of you lot)- You pillage, plunder, put hickies on all the fair damsels. And by that, I mean, you sacrifice someone, die, repeat. If you're lucky you get to get some armor and kill someone.


The Adventurers

The Fearless Leader(1)- You and your merry band have come to plunder the Dark Lord's treasure and slay said abomination. As the leader, you have some very nice skills.
Coup de Grace- You can kill one person without revealing yourself. You have to let the GM know you're using this ability.
We need a distraction- you can disrupt one sacrifice or death-match
Well hidden- You appear as a humble servant of the Dark Lord, and are treated as if you're protected from all attacks. This is canceled if you:
==>Attack without using the Coup de Grace ability
==>are the only surviving member of your party, you don't get it back if one of them is raised from the dead.
Final Stand- You can kill once a night, but lose all of the benefits of the Well Hidden ability

The Cleric(1)-You can kill once a night and can bring one person back from the dead.

The Rogue(1)- You are a master thief and assassin. You can kill once a night and ignore the Trap Master's traps.

The Wizard(1)- You can prepare or activate a spell once a night, You can only have two spells prepared at once, if you die, your spells are activated and the people targeted die, unless they have more than one night life.

The Barbarian(1)- Fueled by rage and pride, you can kill once a night and have a one in four chance of surviving an attack.

The Priests of Chaos(2)- After being defeated in Townstonia once, the order has sent two of its highest Priests to exact revenge. As long as both are alive, neither can be attacked, but they can be lynched. Both can kill once a night.


Narrations will happen at 10 pm Central time. (4 am GMT) Clues will be from profiles, comic thumbs, avatars, and signatures. If you have any questions just ask.


If we are only going to have four or five Minions, then I'll probably ask PP for a little help and come up with some roles for those people. :)
RAGE!

To be, or not to be–that is the question:
Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die, to sleep–
No more–and by a sleep to say we end
The heartache, and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to. ’Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep–
To sleep–perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprise of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action. – Soft you now,
The fair Ophelia! – Nymph, in thy orisons
Be all my sins remembered. As i Play the game of Evil.

Soul Eater was alright. It didn't get really good until the end. Ending made me laugh with its sillyness.

Okay so hey, remember last game when I said I'd be taking a break?…

Yeah, that didn't stop being a thing that happened, I'm still taking a break.

I'm basically just posting here to trick people in to thinking I am joining. That's funny. HAHA.
I'm not really around much anymore, but here's my Tumblr, Twitter, and Deviantart. Also if you remember me from back when I was around, I'm sorry.

Salsa maybe you should start sending some PQs to the usual players. We don't want another game without Hark…and the other people that I don't bother to learn names of, who play this game.

This game I am going to over throw the capitalists and start a glorious peoples revolution!
Red flags, spreading the wealth around, public health care and all that other stuff that yanks don't like.

Chairman Hark is taking power!
Big Kitty is watching you!

Eh, at the rate we're going I might not start until next week.

Also I got a job that I start tomorrow, so I won't be able to check votes and stuff throughout the day like normal. Sorry that's the way the cookie crumbles. :\
