Rules

Spoiler:
1. Don't discuss the game outside of the thread or quicktopics under any circumstances. Warcraft characters are infamous for returning from the grave. Dead players cannot post in the thread, in quicktopics or discuss the game.

2. Day and night phases each last 24 hours. Collectively, a 48 hour day+night is referred to as a cycle. At the end of the day phase, whoever has the most votes will be lynched. Posting is not allowed at night. You must post twice during the day. If you only post once, you will be role crushed that night. If you miss a day phase entirely without warning me, you may be replaced or modkilled immediately.

3. Votes must be phrased [vote lynch X] or [change vote lynch X] or I may not count them.

4. This is a closed setup role madness game. Role revealing is allowed, but not recommended. Do not screenshot or quote your PMs. References to your PMs must be paraphrased.

5. Do not edit or delete your posts.


Gameplay

Spoiler:
1. Failing to vote for another player will count as two votes toward yourself. You cannot vote for no lynch.

2. There are two levels of kills: regular and super. Regular kills can be stopped by roleblocking the killer or protecting the victim, and consume one life from roles with multiple lives. Superkills bypass all defenses, roleblocks and bonus lives. Superkills can be redirected.

3. "Doctors," or roles with protective abilities, cannot protect themselves. Roleblocks disable passive defenses ie bulletproof abilities.

4. Actions are processed at the end of the night, with priority given to roleblocks followed by kills. During the day actions are processed immediately.

5. Doctors learn when they successfully block a kill, but roleblockers do not learn when they successfully prevent an ability.

6. Abilities with limited use are not expended until they succeed. For example, a one shot can be used a second time if it's roleblocked.

7. Faction kills are performed by a specific member of that mafia, and can be tracked or roleblocked by targeting that person. Faction kills and other abilities appear in writeups under the faction's name and not the user's.

8. This game includes bastard mechanics such as death millers. The moderator will lie to you.

9. Role crushes remove all abilities from their victim, effectively making them a "vanilla" role. Role crushed players retain only their voting power. Protection against roleblocks does not work against role crushes.

10. Kills that only remove 1 life from a player with multiple lives will appear to succeed, although the victim will remain in the game and their role won't be revealed.


Terminology

Spoiler:
1. "Murder" refers to death at the hands of an ability, such as a vigilante or faction kill, as opposed to death by lynching.

2. "Investigations" include all information-gathering abilities such as lie detectors, watchers, trackers and ability cops.

3. "Helping lynch another player" means you were voting for them when they were lynched.

4. "Necromancy" refers to abilities that target dead players.

5. An "interaction" is any time a player targets or is targeted by another player. For example, if I target you, we interacted with each other. If you target me, we are still interacting with each other.


Chronology

Spoiler:
My first 2 Warcraft games, Scourge of Lordaeron and Eternity's End, told the story of Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. I did not make a game to cover the events from the expansion pack, Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. Instead we are skipping ahead ~5 years, to the release of Word of Warcraft. WoW takes place in 2 continents, Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms, and this game deals with the events in the Eastern Kingdoms.

On the Warcraft timeline, this game covers years 24 and 25.

    Events

    The Darkmoon Faire

    Silas Darkmoon will periodically bring his magical carnival to the game, offering strange and powerful prizes.

    The Night Lynch

    There will be a lynching each night as well as during the day. Players who have the ability to post during the night can cast a vote. Whoever has the most votes at the end of the night is lynched.

    Elimination

    When the last member of a hostile faction dies, the moderator will announce that the faction has been eliminated. Any information-restricting abilities that faction used, such as janitors or writeup edits, are reversed upon elimination.

    Role claims

    Role claims are allowed, but not encouraged. Be warned there are mechanics that punish role claims.

    Disclaimer

    I took some creative liberties with this game, because it was impossible to translate everything from the MMO to this mafia game. That said, this game follows the story pretty faithfully.

    • The first day will end 48 hours from now, on August 9th at 12:30 CST.

    Please welcome @Expo to the forums! He's my friend who's new to mafia, but he knows about Warcraft. Expo is joining our classic WoW guild with some other NFers, so to help him identify his future guildmates I put their discord usernames in the player list. Those of you in the guild have your Discord username listed next to your NF username for Expo's convenience.

    Ahead of You, Down the Path
    A Majestic, Magical Faire!
    Ignore the Darkened, Eerie Woods
    Ignore the Eyes That Blink and Stare
    Fun & Games & Wondrous Sights!
    Music & Fireworks to Light Up the Night!
    Do Not Stop! You're Nearly There!
    Behold, My Friend: THE DARKMOON FAIRE!

    Silas Darkmoon has opened The Darkmoon Faire to celebrate the game's beginning! Please enjoy these attractions:

    1. The fortune teller - Come have your future read by the mysterious gnoll witch, Sayge! After 24 hours, whoever has the most lynch votes will receive a reading from Sayge, publicly revealing their alignment to the thread.

    2. The minstrel show - The undead bard Michael Schweitzer has collected strange and rare songs throughout his travels across Azeroth, and he's always impressed to meet someone who knows the same songs he does. The first player to find the ending to the following real-world lyrics will be rewarded with a permanent extra voting power, and protection against the lynch for the rest of today and tonight.

    Bitches I'm ready, done preheating!
    Bitches so poultry, they _____

    Day 1 start. You may post.​
