Workshop

Here is a working set for any occasion. Now we just need to come up with the lore and character descriptions.

Iroidal

Mother of Darkness

The deity of the dark elves, whose soul is imprisoned within an altar. The Mother of Darkness protects her servants from misfortune, but in return demands much blood for her satiation. Dark elves perform sacrifices to their deity with enviable regularity. None of them can resist the will of their goddess.
Ability 1. Deity. Cannot be killed.
Ability 2. Blood Rage. Every kill committed by dark elves (including the blood witch) and every execution increases the Mother of Darkness's blood rage level by one. Initial level is zero. Upon reaching certain levels, the Mother of Darkness grants bonuses to the dark elves:

• Level 2 – The Mother of Darkness receives a double vote

• Level 4 – One of the dark elves randomly receives +1 attack defense

• Level 6 – One of the city's dark elves randomly gains the right to use 2 ND per night until the end of the game

• Level 8 – The Mother of Darkness receives a list of all players playing as dark elves

• Level 10 – Automatic victory for the city

Ability 3. If the Mother of Darkness is executed, the blood rage level resets to zero. If the level was zero at the time of execution, the deity's spirit leaves the altar and the Mother of Darkness exits the game.
Status: Non-DE (dark elf)


Grimbol, Twilight Dragon

This dragon was defeated about 100 years ago by the founder of Iroidal, after which he began to serve the Mother of Darkness and her followers. Grimbol participated in many battles. Incinerating and terrifying enemy detachments, he played one of the key roles in the defense of the city. Grimbol remains the last living twilight dragon. Almost living... About 4 years ago he was killed in one of the battles, and the dark elves had to turn to Necromancers for help to resurrect the dragon. After resurrection, the dragon lost most of his former power, but nevertheless, he is still capable of fighting any enemy.
Ability 1. Immunity. Immune to any effect except killing and execution.
Ability 2. Dragon Blood. If he dies, he chooses one of the living players. The target player gets the opportunity to bathe in dragon blood and receive +2 attack defense.
ND. Intimidation. If the target is attacked, it scares off the attacker, depriving them of the ability to use ND the following night. Prevents the Archdemon from instilling a demon soul into the target.
Personal Achievement: save 3 players from being killed.
Reward for Personal Achievement: instead of scaring off the attacker, Grimbol will attack them.
Status: Non-DE


Ammon, Clan Chief

Became chief at a young age, but immediately managed to establish himself as an excellent strategist. Cruel, but fair. He reads everything many moves ahead, thanks to which his army suffers minimal losses in battles. The dark elves themselves equate him to saints, even though the Mother of Darkness does not approve of this.
Ability. Clan Chief. Cannot be executed.
ND 1. Mobilization. Forces all city players who are idle during the current night for any reason to apply their action to a specified target if the action is targeted, or simply apply the action if it is not targeted. Players cannot apply an action to themselves. If a player has several actions, one of them is chosen randomly.
ND 2. Feeding. Lowers the Mother of Darkness's blood rage level by 1, gaining immunity to killing for the current night (works if the level is greater than 0).
ND 3. Check. Compares the statuses of 2 players.
DD. Chief's Word. Once per game during voting, forces all players who have not yet voted to cast their vote for a specified target.
Personal Achievement: execute a negative role using DD.
Reward for Personal Achievement: gains the ability to use feeding for 1 night without lowering the Mother of Darkness's rage level.
Status: DE


Alira, Twilight Witch

High Witch. The only one among the dark elves who managed to master light magic and now successfully applies it in battle. Independent of the clan chief, but unconditionally executes all orders of the Mother of Darkness. All enemies are well aware of her capabilities and want to eliminate her at any cost.
ND 1. Healing. Saves target from death. Neutralizes the effect of poison.
ND 2. Demon Banishment. Banishes a demon soul from a player. Is not subject to attack by the target.
UD 1. Light in Darkness. No one dies on the night this ability is used.
UD 2. Stupor. If applied to a mafioso, they will receive an additional 2 clues in the newspaper for every kill, and during day voting, 1 additional vote against the target will be added. If applied to a townie, it deprives them of all ND and UD. If applied to a maniac, they gain the ability to instill 2 demon souls per night but lose all defenses and their UD. If applied to the Mother of Darkness - she dies.
Personal Achievement: save 3 players from death or demon souls.
Reward for Personal Achievement: healing and demon banishment are combined into one action. Can save from incineration.
Status: DE


Khilar, Elite Warrior

A fighter who knows no mercy. Hardly anyone can stand against him in open combat. Legends are told of his martial feats. The dark elves themselves fear meeting him in ordinary life. Many parents scare their children with Khilar if they refuse to go to sleep.

Krashnak, Goblin

One of the goblins captured by the dark elves but later released. However, the dark elves did not let him leave the city – he'll do as a sacrifice for the Mother of Darkness if needed.

Invaders

Aktaragon, Blood Dragon

A 276-year-old dragon who has destroyed many cities and settlements in his life, both on the surface and in the Dungeon. The mere mention of him strikes terror into all. Aktaragon was in hibernation for 14 years. Everyone had already decided that the dragon was dead, but Cassandra had her own opinion on this. She managed to find the ancient dragon and awaken him. It is not exactly known what Cassandra offered the dragon, but he agreed to help her destroy Iroidal.

Cassandra, Blood Witch

The illegitimate daughter of Ammon, whom the father renounced immediately after her birth. Ammon ordered her mother to be killed and the girl herself to be sacrificed to the Mother of Darkness. At the last moment, the sacrifice ritual was disrupted, and Cassandra disappeared... She grew up far from the city, gradually gaining strength and becoming one of the most powerful witches, but she could never fully rid herself of the influence of the Mother of Darkness. Learning the truth about her childhood, Cassandra devised a plan for revenge against all those responsible for her mother's death, especially Ammon, and to build a new state in which power would belong to the dark elves, not the gods.

Cave Spawn

A demon summoned by Cassandra to help in her mission. It differs from other demons by its particular bloodthirstiness, and its shearing sword can pierce even the strongest dragon scales.

UD. Summoning. Summons reinforcements. After 3 nights, a phantom will be summoned which, until killed, will take all negative effects directed at the cave spawn (including execution).

Reward for Personal Achievement: the phantom is summoned instantly, even if UD was not used.
Status: Non-DE


Onyx

ND 1. Killing. Attacks a player. Ignores redirection.
ND 2. Distraction. If the target applies their ND to one of the mafioso, the action will not work (once every 2 nights).

Reward for Personal Achievement: changes his status and receives +1 attack defense regardless of whether he is alone in the team or not.
Status: Non-DE

Added after 1 minute

I'm confused, who is going to run the game? It seemed like Oven and Valld Emeroll were in line. And the main question: when does it start?

Either you or oven. Whoever has their set ready first. You can even start right now if oven doesn't mind (he did claim it first, though)
