Posts from Mafia 93. In the Name of the Moon! ☾

Modern Japan. By day, the capital of this small, proud country is just another bustling metropolis, many of which exist in the world. But when the sun sets and the silvery Moon rises over nocturnal Tokyo, strange and sometimes terrifying things begin to happen in the city. We are not talking about juvenile delinquents, adult gangsters, or even the legendary yakuza; monsters and magic are actively involved in these events. It is rumored that mysterious figures are searching for a mystical Silver Crystal upon which the fate of the world depends...
A small black shadow glided silently through the streets of Tokyo. Occasionally the shadow would freeze, revealing pointed ears, a long tail, and a glimmer on its forehead. The fearless little creature was actively searching for something in the city. Only legendary warriors from the distant past, who perished in an ancient brutal battle and were reborn only recently, could save Earth. The cat must find them before the enemies gather enough strength to awaken a great evil...

Residents of Tokyo

Tsukino Usagi

An ordinary Japanese girl. A lazy crybaby who behaves like a five-year-old, but strangely enough, she has many friends thanks to her kindness, openness, and inexhaustible optimism.
After meeting a mysterious black cat, Usagi became a warrior of love and justice, a protector of humanity and the possessor of an immense power that heals people and expels evil. But she cannot know that she is the heir to the lunar throne and the guardian of the Silver Crystal...
O1: Knows Luna, can communicate with her. Upon Luna's death, receives the killer's nickname.
O2: If Mamoru is alive, Usagi has impenetrable protection from the first attack. If he dies, the protection becomes ordinary.
O3: Cannot be crippled or hypnotized.
ND: Moon Healing Escalation – healing, curing cripples, removing hypnosis.
UD1: Sailor Planet Power – for one day, strips all traits/ND/UD of all Dark Kingdom team members who moved at night; for two days, strips the voice and ND/UD of all night killers who performed a successful kill. Available if all warriors are alive and awakened at the start of the night. Prevents other warriors from performing their ND.
UD2: Silver Crystal Power – resurrection of all warriors killed after awakening. The UD of those resurrected is restored. Usagi is revealed in the newspaper and permanently loses all ND and UD.
Status: power wielder.

Luna

A talking cat who long ago was the loyal assistant to the beautiful Moon Queen. Now she must awaken the Moon Princess and her bodyguards to save the world. She is always ready to help Usagi with good advice, even if Usagi, as usual, lets it go in one ear and out the other.
O1: Knows Usagi, can communicate with her. Upon Usagi's death, receives the killer's nickname.
O2: Zero voice.
O3: Impenetrable protection from the first attack.

Status: power wielder.

Mizuno Ami

The smartest girl—if not in the whole world, then certainly in Japan. Quiet and modest, she spends all her free time studying and self-developing, so she has no friends at all.
After meeting a mysterious black cat, Ami finds common ground with water and becomes the brain of the Moon Warriors team, providing significant support to her comrades in battle.
O: Finds out how many players visited her during the night.

Hino Rei

A beautiful but very hot-tempered priestess from the Hikawa Temple. She possesses some supernatural abilities and is not afraid to use them, which quite frightens those around her.
After meeting a mysterious black cat, Rei takes full control of the element of fire in all its manifestations, becoming the most indomitable and loyal protector of the princess.
ND: Akuryou taisan – block.
UD: Prediction – before the day begins, learns the nicknames of those killed and the roles of the killers, after which she can change her ND. Used in conjunction with other NDs.

UD: Increases number of charges by 1; charges are not spent if there were no victims.
Status: power wielder.

Kino Makoto

The tallest and strongest girl in the class. She is not afraid of a fight and is considered cruel even by those she saved from bullies, so no one can appreciate her kindness, responsiveness, and culinary skill.
After meeting a mysterious black cat, Makoto gains access to the most terrifying power of the heavens and becomes the strongest of the warriors.
O: Protection from the first attack; saves from killing protections, but not guards.
After initiation receives:

Status: mortal.

Gurio Umino

One of the best students in school. Distinguished by strange and sometimes frightening behavior.

No more than one question about profile content, no more than two questions about specific roles (image and description), no more than two questions about side; other questions are forbidden. The same set of questions cannot be given more than once; questions with the same meaning cannot be in one interview (for example, you cannot ask "are you on Beryl's team?" and "are you on the Dark Kingdom's side?", but you can ask "are you on Beryl's team?" and "do you possess illusion magic?").

A bit about the Mage Guild :)

1. The MG is always right.
2. If the MG is not right, see point 1.
3. The MG is Drakkoshka. For distorting the nickname to something like "Drakoshka" or similar, the entire side the offender played for will be modkilled on the spot with particular cruelty.
4. Balance and game mechanic adjustments are possible strictly until the first newspaper; after that, clarifications and additions may occur, but existing rules will not change. Disputed situations are resolved by the MG at their own discretion using a coin toss, a random number generator, and Davrosova's grandmother.
5. NDs are sent to the MG personally via any available means of communication. For guaranteed delivery, it is preferable to use forum private messages or the social network vk.com. Mafia players may send NDs through a Skype conference. If you do not receive confirmation, there is no guarantee that I have accepted your ND; please be attentive.

Code of Conduct

1. Night lasts from the end of the day until the writing of the next newspaper. NDs, including survey responses, are accepted until 17:00, Motoki's NDs until 12:00 (may be sent during the day). If Rei wants to predict the future, she must contact me between 17:00 and 19:00; a convenient time can be discussed in advance (I don't think it will take more than a few minutes). The newspaper is published between 17:30 and 23:00 depending on the complexity of the newspaper and the MG's free time. If all NDs are sent earlier, I may make an exception on weekends and publish the newspaper sooner. Writing in the game thread during the night is forbidden. All times are given according to Moscow time.
   Please note that when distributing roles, I may take into account people's availability and time zone differences. Players who cannot play as Rei or Motoki due to time constraints must write to me about this strictly in private before the distribution of roles, and I will exclude them from the allocation for these roles.
This is not ideal, of course, and I apologize to the players for such an absurdity; I hope for your honesty. It is recommended to use this only in the absolute same extreme case when it is simply impossible to carve out a few minutes anywhere.
2. Day lasts 24 hours from the moment the newspaper is published. Depending on the MG's free time, the day may officially close later, but votes sent after the closing time of the day are not counted. The interval between the closing of the day and the publication of voting results is considered night.
3. Discussing the current game outside the thread is only allowed when you have a role that permits it, and only where it is permitted to do so.
4. The killed are forbidden from writing in the game thread, even in deleted posts. Also, corpses are prohibited from revealing any information obtained through their role. Revealing one's own role is also undesirable, even if everyone has already guessed. For violations, the entire team of the killed will be punished.
5. It is forbidden to explicitly reveal your own role, the roles of other players known due to role characteristics, as well as information obtained via a role. It is permitted to shout without argument "he's mafia, I'm town!". For revealing and explicit hints equivalent to it, the entire team will be punished.
6. Editing your messages is highly discouraged. Correcting a couple of errors, adding a bold tag, or slightly reformulating a thought is allowed, but making significant semantic changes is forbidden.
7. Execution is formatted in bold as "execute username". Cancellation of execution is formatted in bold as "do not execute username". The form of execution may be slightly altered within reasonable limits. Canceling the previous vote is optional.
8. Clues are given based on deities selected from a list according to articles in Wikipedia, but information from other sources may be used. A hint about the role of the killed is provided.
9. NDs must be sent every night as long as you are alive. If you do not wish to use an ND this night, write that to the MG so there are no unnecessary problems.
10. Mafia makes decisions collectively. If one of the mafia players is absent, their ND can be sent on their behalf.
11. A modkill or player replacement occurs in case of a gross violation of rules or total absence of signs of life during game days (day and night). Also, a modkill/replacement may occur at the request of the player.
12. First-night immunity is granted to:
    • The MG of the previous game.
    • Those who have not previously played on ХВ.
    • Those killed on the first night in the previous game.
    • Those who missed three or more games on ХВ.

This is just a game. And if you weren't killed by the mafia/maniac/town shooter/day vote/evil MG, they will definitely do it later. All that's left for you is to relax and enjoy yourself.

Game Rules

1. Mafia can perform no more than three NDs per night, of which no more than one is killing. Orders given to those hypnotized by Queen Beryl are considered a separate ND; the absence of orders is not considered a separate ND.
2. One player cannot apply more than one ND per night, except for agreed-upon cases.
3. The actual sum of votes is displayed next to the player who should be executed. In other cases, a number corresponding to the quantity of players voting in the thread is displayed.
4. NDs cannot be directed at oneself, except for agreed-upon cases, but can be directed at members of one's own team. All NDs that are directed once every N nights must recharge for N-1 nights after use.
5. To execute a player, more than half of the votes from the current number of players must be gathered.
6. Failed kills are not displayed regardless of the reason for their failure.
7. Blocking an unblockable role (including those who performed their NDs before the blocker) is displayed as usual. In case of isolation, visitors are displayed as a fact without specifying their intentions and quantity, while failed kills and non-displayed NDs are taken into account. Maiming roles immune to it is displayed normally.
8. The charge of an ultimate action remains if it was thwarted due to a block or isolation (including hitting someone isolated).
9. Targeted NDs performed before isolation are successful if the sender became isolated, and fail if the recipient became isolated.
10. Victory conditions:
    • Tokyo Residents: Mask and Dark Kingdom destroyed.
    • Dark Kingdom: Tokyo Residents and Mask destroyed.
    • Mask: all players with "Power Holder" status are destroyed, except for Tsukino Usagi. If Tsukino Usagi died earlier, then the Mask must destroy all other players regardless of their status.

Can I sign up already? :)

Kokopelli.

However...
Koyolshauki, please.

Please note that several changes have been made compared to the Workshop.

Chang'e

Yeah, to put it mildly, it's not really my thing... And all the characters look the same to me... Well, okay, the most important thing is the game itself, not the "pictures."

Siuacoatl

I remembered.

All the characters look the same to me...

If it's really difficult, here's a hint: they differ in hairstyles and sometimes in hair color. Except for Luna. Luna is a cat.

UD: Increases the number of charges by 1; charges are not consumed if there are no casualties.

Can you explain what this means? I don't quite understand...

Could you explain what this means? I don't quite understand...

An upgrade for the ultimate ability that is initially available.

That

Diana.

I offer a sacrifice toHecate.

Chandra.:smile04: And 10 characters as a bonus.
