That's great, gentlemen. In addition to Hopeless, we also need Desperate. And yes, the Revansk version of Torvar stole my...

What about Despair?

And Decay.

And their leader is Besperspektivnyak.

Given that there are no other GMs available at the moment, I could finish and run this setting of mine, but I have some doubts about the number of players.

Well, there isn't much to choose from, but you can try to run it.

NO! TRY NOT! DO! OR DO NOT! IT MEANS NO "TRY"!!!!!!!!

It was interesting to read for myself =) I hope that by the release, there will also be a description of the role!

Go on, Revan. You're not a Hollywood director, so you don't need to release one game in the series every two years.

I'm not sure if I can run this setting, as the number of roles simply cannot be reduced (I even had to use two series just to gather enough people for the desired balance of power), and the balance is probably very questionable, although I plan to play around with the visibility and methods of displaying certain NDs/abilities. But I would like to see this whole mess in action, since the set, mind you, was created based on my favorite series and my favorite era of that series. For your judgment.
An English Doctor Who wiki was used during writing; about half of the images (the crookedest images with the blurriest faces for some random people whom nobody knows) and the occasional "overmind" of names and titles stem from there. Oh, and initially almost all images were black and white; I colored them slightly to match the group colors.
Time Travelers (blue) - something like a city mafia in Reven' same style; they play and win together with the ordinary city. I decided to play around with this theme and make life harder for the city-mafia, although I'm not sure if it worked.
And I feel like I'm degenerating—I only have one role without an ND, and that one has an ultimate.
Survey scheme - same as in my Egyptian mafia: nickname and obliteration.
Intersection - one player visits another or they both go to the same target.

Group Ability 2: can direct any single night action to a member of their group no more than once every 3 nights.

The Doctor

Ability 2: regeneration: if the game does not end two game days after the time lord's death, the time lord returns to the game at the very end of the phase. If an obvious victory for one of the sides occurs during the phase, the return of the time lord does not affect the result of the game.

Ability 1: regeneration: if the game does not end two game days after the time lord's death, the time lord returns to the game at the very end of the phase. If an obvious victory for one of the sides occurs during the phase, the return of the time lord does not affect the result of the game.

Invader from Skaro
