Welcome to the Supernatural Round of Mafia with 14 players.
In this round, there are hunters aka townies and monsters aka mafia. The hunters are on a search for one of their own who has gone missing. All the while, the hunters must try to find and eliminate the monsters with extreme prejudice before they are eliminated. The game ends when either all of the Mafia is eliminated (town wins), or there are fewer townsfolk than Mafia members (Mafia wins).
The game will start today, Wednesday October, 2021. Lynching will be allowed on the first day. Mafia can lynch the first night.
During the day, everybody (townsfolk and Mafia) will publicly vote for a person to eliminate; I will eliminate the person with the most votes at the end of the day and reveal what their role was with some mediocre storytelling. (Please note that narrative may follow the following morning depending on the day.) During the night, the Mafia members are going to privately tell me who they would like to eliminate. I will reveal to everyone what happened the next morning.
Tie votes will result in no nightkill.
In addition to regular townsfolk and members of the Mafia, there are the following special roles:
- Sheriff – May investigate one player each night with no limit to number of investigations. The cop is only told whether their target is townie or mafia (no special role indicated; only alignment). If the Mafia Spy is targeted, the investigation will show up as “Townie.”
- Doctor – May choose to save one person each night (no limit). May not choose the same person two nights in a row. Doctor saves will count for both mafia nightkills and hunter ghost nightkills (see below).
- Mafia Spy – Tries to find the sheriff each night. The spy does not initially know who the mafia are, and the mafia do not know who their spy is. If the spy is investigated by the sheriff, the spy shows up as a “Townie.” The spy may investigate one player each day, with the investigation showing up as “Sheriff” or “Not the sheriff.” Note: Since the spy is on the mafia team, they also get to vote during the nightkill, so it would be prudent for the "known" mafia members to all vote in agreement to prevent any ties/no nightkills. This also creates incentive for the spy to figure out how to get in touch with the rest of the mafia members (publicly or privately) as soon as possible. The spy and the mafia will be connected on MONDAY NOV 1 if not sooner. Mafia members must give me a keyword given to the mafia spy in order to join the mafia PM (*New*).
- Hunter Ghost (*New Role*) - The deceased hunters will automatically turn to ghosts (as they have unfinished business) and have a 25% chance to generate enough spiritual energy to make a nightkill of their own by majority vote. I will establish a separate PM group with the hunter ghosts and this will be where they will also be privately voting. Tie votes will result in no nightkill.
The normal Mafia members know who each other are, but no one knows anyone else’s role except me. I will send more specific instructions to the members of the Mafia, the Doctor, and the Sheriff. If you do not receive a PM from me within a few minutes, then you are a regular townsfolk/townie. If you're actually reading this wall of text, add a random or relevant gif to your next post and I'll like it.
To vote on a person to eliminate, mention me
@Dothracki PE and tell me specifically that 1) you are voting and 2) the username of the person you are voting to eliminate.
Example:
@Dothracki PE I vote for
@DuranDuran PE because they're a dirty liar and therefore mafia.
