888: X-COM TFTD Mafia: Over!

[malthusis]

It's a normal day at X-COM Bravo Base in the Atlantic, with scientists hard at researching new weapons, technicians making a few missiles for the subs, and aquanauts lazing away, doing whatever they can to pass the time between missions. Suddenly the intercom blares.......

WARNING: INTRUDERS DETECTED! PLEASE ASSEMBLE AT THE SUB PEN IMMEDIATELY!!!

All the aquanauts quickly run to the Sub, where they see the Head Scientist waiting for them.

Hello Aquanauts, we have a situation on our hands right now. We have reasons to believe that some aliens have snuck into this base and are posing as normal recruits. We have gathered here because we know that the aliens would come as well, and this room is currently under lockdown. Using your wits and logic, we will find these aliens among us and use this Sonic Cannon here to vaporize them. I have been decided by the Director himself to moderate these events, I have no say in them myself. All I can say is good luck, and I hope you take these infiltrators out.......

[malthusis]

It's been 24 hours since I gave out the PM's, so I'm officially starting Day 1.
Deadline will be two weeks from now: Dec 8th.

[malthusis]

The people who were suspected of being infiltrators just stood their dazed for a few seconds, wondering if this was some payback prank for the famous April Fool's Day joke on the entire scientific division. But after a while of just standing there, they realized just how serious it was. Since some of the people didn't know each other due to a wide variety of people being called down(from guardsmen to aquanauts to even some of the cooks), they took the time to get to know each other, and whine at the cook about the awful military rations they were getting. Everyone seemed so real, and human, but they realized there were aliens in their midst......

1st Vote Count of Day 1

Jaime Marcelle:

2 (Otto, Edward)
Leon Dreyfus:1 (Claude)
Spencer Remmington:1 (Leon)
Igor Schultz:1 (Andrew)
Claude Lefevre:1 (Jaime)
Edward Smilie:1 (Tracey)

Not Voting:5 (Gerhard, Stuart, Emile, Spencer, Igor)

Notes:

1. 3 people haven't posted yet, and they will be prodded as soon as the 48 hour mark rolls around...

2.I replaced the playerlist on the first post with the alt names because the playerlist is not going to be reliable at all once we start getting replacements.

[malthusis]

Sending out a prod to Gerhard Krause. (Igor has posted, but I had to delete his post due to it mentioning his original account.)

[malthusis]

Tracey, Otto, and Stuart are all getting prodded....

Edit:Andrew is going to get prodded too if he doesn't post soon...

[malthusis]

Half an hour after the deliberations start, you hear the bell marking noon (and lunch). The head scientist says "Since you're preoccupied with these deliberations right now, I'll go get lunch for all of you. We just got a new shipment of supplies in today from the mainland, and some of them aren't military rations for once!" You can hear Edward drool over the thought of actual food coming in, and the scientist runs out of the doors of the Sub Pen, with a huge click of the door locking behind him.....

The Second Vote Count of Day 2:

Jaime Marcelle:2 (Otto, Edward)

Leon Dreyfus:1 (Claude)
Gerhard Krause:1(Leon)
Igor Schultz:1 (Andrew)
Claude Lefevre:1 (Jaime)
Edward Smilie:2 (Tracey, Gerhard)
Stuart Whyte:1(Spencer)

Not Voting:3 (Stuart, Emile, Igor)

Notes:

1.Edward is being prodded.

[malthusis]

I am giving Tracey a warning for posting his account name in his post. He is very lucky I am not force-replacing him right now for what he did. He has been warned, so if he does even one more offense, I am replacing him.

[malthusis]

*sigh* I just realized that Edward hasn't given me his password yet. If he is replaced (which will happen in 24 hours) a new account is going to be made for the replacement.

[malthusis]

As the expertly prepared lunch was wheeled in by by some engineers who had nothing to do, everyone dug in to the delicious food. But as amazingly good as it was, it did nothing to ease the tension in the room.

In fact, the tension was rising.....

The Third Vote Count of Day 1:

Jaime Marcelle:2 (Otto, Claude)
Gerhard Krause:1 (Leon)
Orski Pavlov:1 (Andrew)

Stuart Whyte:5 (Spencer, Igor, Gerhard, Tracey, Jaime)

Emile Buchard:1 (Stuart)

Not Voting:2 (Emile, Orski)

7 to lynch, just as a reminder.....

[malthusis]

Edward Smilie didn't give me his password, so the new replacement has a new account called Orski Pavlov. He should be posting shortly....

[malthusis]

For all the non X-COM players (shame on you! ) and players who are bit rusty on everything in the X-COM universe, here is a site that outlines it all: http://www.xcomufo.com/

[malthusis]

Just to clarify: I am talking about the end of the game. Since Gerhard Krause wanted to use his account after the game, I was thinking it would be better not to reveal after the game is done, but the choice is up to you...

Also:

1 week till deadline!

Since this game is going pretty fast and there has only been one replacement, there are definitly NOT going to be any extensions. The end of the Day is Dec. 8th.

[malthusis]

The Fourth Vote Count of Day 1:

Jaime Marcelle:2 (Otto, Claude)
Gerhard Krause:1 (Leon)
Orski Pavlov:1 (Andrew)
Stuart Whyte:6 (Spencer, Igor, Gerhard, Tracey, Jaime, Emile)
Emile Buchard:1 (Stuart)

Not Voting:1 (Orski)

Reveal:0
Not Reveal:0

Undecided:12(Everyone)

Notes:

1.Since I don't think you guys got the question at first, I have not counted any votes before I clarified the question.

2.Otto Ulbreicht is getting prodded, and Leon will get prodded later today...

[malthusis]

The pressure had been growing on Stuart over lunchtime: He called a fellow aquanaut an alien for no reason (at least, not any obvious one) and when questioned about it, refused to tell why. After multiple rounds of questioning, he was still stubbornly holding his reasons back, and the rest of the group was starting to lose their patience with him. Even after saying he had some new experimental armor on did not lessen his fellow aquanaut's suspicions of him. The situation has now reached a climax as several aquanauts are ready to lynch him for his actions alone, not even worrying whether he is an alien scum or not....

The Fourth Vote Count of Day 1:

Jaime Marcelle:2 (Otto, Claude)
Gerhard Krause:1 (Leon)

Stuart Whyte:5 (Igor, Gerhard, Tracey, Jaime, Emile)

Emile Buchard:1 (Stuart)
Leon Dreyfus:1 (Spencer)

Not Voting:2 (Orski, Andrew)

Reveal:2 (Jaime,Andrew)
Not Reveal:0

Undecided:10

Notes:

1.Leon is getting prodded. Orski will be prodded later today...

[malthusis]

Orski asked for replacement . I'll try to get one as soon as possible...

[malthusis]

Since SOME people weren't reading the thread closely enough, I'll reiterate it: Orski said he was to busy in RL, and had to be relpaced....

[malthusis]

The tension has not subsided in the Sub Pen. The big argument currently: Is Stuart absolutely stupid for suspecting Emile, or does he have a reason behind it? There is STILL discussion on which is the case. The aquanauts are split between which is the case, and knowing the right answer may be the differance between taking out the aliens or not....

The Fifth Vote Count of Day 1:

Jaime Marcelle:1 (Otto)
Gerhard Krause:1 (Leon)

Stuart Whyte:6 (Igor, Gerhard, Jaime, Emile, Claude, Andrew)

Emile Buchard:2 (Stuart, Tracey)
Leon Dreyfus:1 (Spencer)

Not Voting:1 (Orski)

Reveal:4 (Jaime,Andrew, Emile, Tracey)
Not Reveal:1 (Claude)

Undecided:7

Notes:

1. Deadline is in 4 days! To be more specific to those who want to vote down to the wire, I'll be officially ending Day 1 around 4:00 pm GMT-6. Remember, if there is no lynch, the person with the most votes and has had them the longest will be lynched (signified by being bolded in the VC).

2.

Otto is getting replaced....

[malthusis]

I seem to be doing really poor today...

Andrew did indeed vote Stuart, which would cause a lynch. However, since this was my error, and Otto pretty much had no way of knowing this, I will retract Otto's vote, putting Stuart at L-1.

[malthusis]

The Fifth Vote Count of Day 1:

Gerhard Krause:1 (Leon)

Stuart Whyte:6 (Igor, Gerhard, Jaime, Emile, Claude, Andrew, Otto)

Emile Buchard:2 (Stuart, Tracey)
Leon Dreyfus:1 (Spencer)

Not Voting:1 (Orski)

Reveal:4 (Jaime,Andrew, Emile, Tracey)
Not Reveal:1 (Claude)

Undecided:7


Wow...., that is a lynch.



The lynch scene will be up in a hour or two, and the Twilight will last 48 hours. Send in your actions ASAP.

[malthusis]

"Well, it looks like you've finally figured out what to do with Stuart," says the Head Scientist, carrying the Sonic Cannon in his arms. "Since you're the deciding vote, I'll give you the honour of shooting him, Otto." The rest of you handcuff Stuart and strap him to the wall so he can't get away. Otto slowly but accurately aims the Cannon at Stuart, and with pull of a trigger and a the characteristic "Zap" of a Sonic weapon, shoots Stuart......

But all you hear is a big "THUD" off of Stuart's armor.

"Maybe he's telling the truth...." you hear Tracey mutter, but before anyone else complains, Otto lines up quickly for another shot that hits the mark perfectly, splattering liquefied flesh everywhere. You then see a group of scientists quickly and calmly take the remains of what was Stuart down to the lab for testing......

An hour later, the Head Scientist comes back with a clip-board in his hand. "The good news," he says, "is that the Ion Armor experiment was a complete success!". You don't know whether to clap or not to that information. "The bad news is that he was not lying at all. He was in fact, the beloved Captain Stuart Whyte, one of the best on the team. He will be deeply missed." A moment of silence is left to remember him, and you hope this is not a bad omen for the future.....

Captain Stuart Whyte, 1-Shot Bulletproof

, was lynched Day 1.

[malthusis]

All actions are in, start of day scene coming up.....

[malthusis]

After the climactic event of Stuart's lynching, supper is brought into the Pen before you go to sleep on makeshift cots, pondering the day's events...

Once you get up, you see a guard at the station (your friend Gerhard Krause) in the middle of the room, with way too many holes in him. The wounds seem to have cauterized over, so there is no blood on the floor. As you call the scientists over to the lab to pick up the body, Spencer yells,"Hey guys, come look at this!". You cannot even begin to describe the horrific alien that lays on the floor in front of you, with dripping orange liquid all over the floor. It looks comatose, but just to be sure, Otto blasts it with the Sonic Cannon, making even more of mess across the floor. As the scientists come in and use several tools to analyze the bodies, the Head Scientist says,"From what we can tell, this guard here was being controlled by that alien we call a Tentaculat over there. You guys are very lucky someone took this out for you, or else there could have been major trouble!". Everyone stands dazed for a few seconds, before Igor says, "We better get started on finding the rest of these scum, right?......."

Gerhard Krause (who actually was a Tentaculat), M.C. Controller,

was killed Twilight 1.

[malthusis]

"We also have some more good news," says the Head Scientist. "We found the sub the aliens got smuggled in on. We are currently analyzing it for any scrap of info we can find that will help us in the search of the aliens among us." After typing a few things into a pager in his pocket, he leaves the Pen, the huge door locking behind him.

The First Vote Count of Day 2:

Well, if that's the way you want to go, 1 modkill coming up.....

This modkill ends the Day. It is now Twilight 2, get your actions in!

Scene coming up...

[malthusis]

All of a sudden, a lightning bolt strikes Otto right in the forehead. You have no idea at all how this makes sense, but you feel like you don't want to tempt fate anymore with continuing the day......

The Head Scientist just acts likes this happens every day, and calmly calls the team in to pick up the charred remains of Otto.....

A few hours pass........

You see the Head Scientist come into the room with another clip-board with the test results on it (you assume). "I don't know why he wouldn't have just waited for himself to be lynched..." he mutters under his breath. "But for his identity, everything checks out.Lieutenant Otto Ulbreicht was one of the best M.C users in the base, like he said.. eventually. I know you shouldn't be trusting anyone among your group, but can't you at least take something at face value?"

The scientist sighs, and calmly walks out of the room, shaking his head while he goes....

Lieutenant Otto Ulbreicht, Psionic

now a

Neutral Survivor

due to modkill, modkilled Day 2.

[malthusis]

Note:

7 people have voted reveal, so we are revealing at the end of the game.....

[malthusis]

All actions are in, the day scene will be up in a few minutes...

[malthusis]

As the lights turn back on, you see horrific scene in front of you. You see Tracey Morris brutally stabbed multiple times in the back, and with the blood he spilled, the killer wrote "Why so serious?" with a big smiley face along with some alien writing. As the Head Scientist comes in, he cringes noticeably cringes and says "It looks like the Aliens are having some fun....", while he calls up the assistants to pick up the body. "Personally," he says, "I don't need assistants to identify this body. This is the director of X-COM, who had some crazy idea to help along with this investigation. He has access to every file in the base, and has been paging me for the past nights for what files he needs. There's absolutely no way he could be an alien...."

The assistants analysis confirms that Tracey was indeed the Director of X-COM, and he was the most important asset to this group here, as well as being the general in the war against the aliens. All of you take a few moments to reflect on his death, and vow to get those aliens out of this base....

Tracey Morris, Director of X-COM (Cop)

was killed Twilight 2.

[malthusis]

About Orski's replacement: I had to ask a few favors around, and if no one comes by Saturday, they are going to replace. They also sent in actions for N2, if appliable....

[malthusis]

Got a replacement for Orski (finally....)

[malthusis]

Spencer is being prodded...

[malthusis]

An hour after you restart the discussion on who to lynch next, the huge bulkhead doors open and a person in the base comes in and hands you the weekly newsletter for the bases. The front cover this week reads "ALIEN BASE DESTROYED IN BLACK SEA" with a picture of a aquanaut with his diving suit on with his helmet in one arm, and a Tasoth head in the other with a wide smile on his face. This seems to bolster the morale (and lighten the mood) of everyone in the room. The person then walks out, the huge door shutting behind him, and slowly the discussion restarts....

The First Vote Count of Day 3:

Igor Schultz:1 (Andrew)

Emile Buchard:3 (Igor, Edward, Claude)

Not Voting:4 (Jaime, Emile, Spencer, Leon)

[malthusis]

Discussion was starting to grind to a halt as the remaining members of X-COM were splitting themselves into 2 groups on who to lynch. Both arguments have their own pros and cons, and the groups are at a deadlock on who to lynch. As the day keeps ticking away, will they have chosen the right person in the end?

The Second Vote Count of Day 3:

Emile Buchard:2 (Igor, Edward)

Igor Schultz:3 (Andrew, Leon, Claude)

Not Voting: (Spencer, Jaime, Emile)

Notes:

1. Deadline is coming up! It is 2 weeks after the start of the day, which lands it on Dec. 24.

[malthusis]

T he clock keeps ticking down as people are still thinking about who is the correct lynch for today. Even with the lights out bell in 2 hours, discussion is still in a deadlock, with no side gaining a clear advantage....

The Third Vote Count of Day 3:

Emile Buchard:3 (Igor, Edward, Jaime)

Igor Schultz:3 (Leon, Claude, Emile)

Not Voting:2 (Spencer, Andrew)

Notes:

1. Spencer has been replaced.

2. Prods are going out to everyone who needs them.

3. This isn't Mind Screw, you can't lynch the mod

[malthusis]

The Fourth Vote Count of Day 3:

Emile Buchard:4 (Igor, Edward, Jaime, Andrew)

Igor Schultz:2 (Leon, Emile)

Not Voting:2 (Spencer, Claude)

Notes:

1.I will be officially ending Day 3 at around noon tomorrow, GMT-6.

[malthusis]

The Last Vote Count of Day 3:

Emile Buchard:5 (Igor, Edward, Jaime, Andrew, Claude)

Igor Schultz:2 (Leon, Emile)

Not Voting:1 (Spencer)


That is a lynch! The scene should be up in a sec...

Notes:

1. I am being a little less strict deadlines and prods during the holidays, and regular activity rules will not come into effect until after Dec. 31. Still, I'd like all actions to be in as soon as possible...

[malthusis]

After a looooong time of deliberations, you decide Emile is the one that has to go. You strap him up to the wall so he won't get away, and the Head Scientist gives the Sonic Cannon to Claude. After taking a deep breath, he calmly aims and shoots at Emile's head, who erupts into an inhuman scream just be before the shot scatters brains and remnants of his head fly everywhere. "Well, I'm taking guesses that that was an alien, but we still need to check the remains because of "procedure"," says the Head Scientist, as he calls in the lab techs to gather Emile up.

As an hour passes, and Spencer shakes his head saying, "I just realized something right now: How come anyone didn't notice that Emile was the only one who had his diving helmet on! He probably wasn't even disguised!". Everyone just stands there for a minute, before Claude says,"I guess we should all take off our helmets right now, shouldn't we....." While everyone takes off their helmets and makes sure they didn't make a retarded oversight, the Head Scientist walks back in..

"We got good news. Emile was indeed an Alien (a Gill Man to be precise). Good job all for taking out our first alien! We also just got a shipment of beer to the base, who wants a round of drinks on me? Everyone cheers to that, and while the rest of the remaining people go and grab the beer, the Head Scientist stops short of the door and says, "We also found another interesting fact about dear old Emile. We were looking over the tapes of when you guys got up yesterday (when you saw the alien dead before), and it looked like Emile was genuinely stunned that that Tentaculat was there as the rest of you were. From that and a few other conclusions we've gotten, we think that the two are on differing teams. Enjoy the beer!" As he walks out the door, you can't help but scratch your head and wonder what this means.....

Emile Buchard (really a Gill Man), Infiltrator with 1-shot Force Field

, lynched Day 3.

[malthusis]

After the party, all the people who had not passed out already from drinking way too much beer went to bed, and tried to get to bed....

The next morning people awoke to see a big green puddle in the middle of the floor. You quickly realize that is jellified remains of a diving suit, and Claude quickly does a roll call of everyone left while Spencer pages the lab techs to come pick up the mess. Everyone seems to check in except Igor, so you wait to hear what results the scientists get from testing the remains.

After a few hours pass, the Head Scientist comes out with a few sheets in his hand (presumably the results) and waits for everyone to quiet down. "Igor," he says, "was a true X-COM aquanaut, despite what all of you thought about him. Considering you guys have few leads, it will be interesting seeing who you pick next. Have a good day." He then walks out the bulkhead door, leaving everyone wondering who could possibly be the next alien....

Able Seaman Igor Schultz, Vanilla Townie

was killed Twilight 3.

[malthusis]

No votecount (no one's voted!) but a few notes:
1.Put in end of day VC's due to Edward's request.

2.I can't technically prod Spencer right now, but I'll give an unoffical prod.

3.My next game (for those who enjoyed this game) will be called Malth's Alternate Reality, packed full of new and complex roles (it will be a Mind Screw game with a little less bastardness). PM me if you want to pre-in!

[malthusis]

The activity rules are back on (and have been since New Years), and I am prodding anybody who needs it (i.e Leon and Andrew).

The new deadline for Day 4 is Jan. 14th 2010.

[malthusis]

The First Vote Count of Day 4:

(Finally!)

Jaime Marcelle:1 (Spencer)

Not Voting:5 (Leon, Edward, Jaime, Andrew, Claude)

[malthusis]

Just a comment: You all realize that the Vanilla Townie PM is in the first post of the game, right?

[malthusis]

Still no change in votes from last VC(Andrew unvoted his vote change), but a few notes:

1.Reminder to all: Deadline is Jan 14th.

2.Edward is being prodded.

[malthusis]

Sorry for not posting a vote count, here's one:

The Second Vote Count of Day 4:

No Lynch:2 (Edward, Jaime)
Jaime Marcelle:1 (Leon)

Not Voting:3 (Andrew,Spencer, Claude)

Deadline is tomorrow noon at GMT-6

[malthusis]

It is deadline and No Lynch has the most votes, so we have No Lynch.
Flavor will be up later, but send in your actions ASAP.

[malthusis]

After a uneasy night of rest, the remaining number of you awkwardly awake to the new morning. You find body pieces scattered everywhere around the Sub Pen, and after taking a quick roll call, you find that Andrew is the owner of them. As the lab techs come in to clean up the remnants of him, one of them mutters about the crappy guards who actually let someone sneak a grenade in here....

Able Seaman Andrew Lemarchand, Vanilla Townie

was killed Twilight 4.

[malthusis]

Note to all: I just found out I forgot to give an updated flavor PM to Spencer's replacement, so I'm updating the PM with some different info right now.

(sorry)

[malthusis]

We don't have any votes to do a votecount but just a note: The deadline is 2 weeks from the start of the day (which means it is the 29th of January).

[malthusis]

The First Vote Count of Day 5:

Claude:1 (Edward Smilie)

Leon:1 (Claude Lefevre)

Not Voting:3 (Spencer Remmington, Leon Dreyfus, Jaime Marcelle)

Notes:

1. Deadline is in 2 days!

[malthusis]

Finally found a link to a download of X-COM!:http://www.hotud.org/component/content/ ... rs-Edition

You'll need DOS-BOX to run this. You can get it at: www.dosbox.com

[malthusis]

That's a lynch! The scene will be up shortly...

[malthusis]

After a tense night, the remining 5 people quickly discuss who to lynch next. They settle on one person: Claude. As the Head Scientist goes and grabs the Sonic Cannon, Jaime goes to hold him down...

As he gets strapped to a black stain on the wall (from all the other executed people) he says, "Why can't you just accept our gracious overlords? They have blessed me with all kinds of gifts, why can't you just stop this senseless fighting?"

"I am a human like you, please listen to me!" Claude pleads, but is shortly shut up by Spencer with a blast to the head from the Cannon.

While the lab techs clean up the mess like usual, a helper comes up and hands the Head Scientist a clipboard with a report attached. "Thanks," he mutters to the man before rejoins helping the cleanup crew.

"We have good news!" the Head Scientist says, "We've finished investigating the Sub that smuggled the aliens in here. We've concluded that there was definitely no more then 3 aliens aboard. From what Claude said before he died, we're assuming he's with the aliens (we're checking just to be sure, of course), but it looks like that's all of them. We're putting you under quarantine just in case, but I think this is finally all over......"

Claude Lefevre (who was an Alien Hybrid), GF

was lynched Day 5.

X-COM(Town) has won the game!

Epilogue is coming in a sec...

[malthusis]

The X-COM Weekly Newsletter!

Main Article: Alien Threat at Beta Base Neutralized!

Over the course of the past few weeks, there has been a hijacking attempt at Beta Base by a cell of aliens. But due to the valorous efforts of the aquanauts there, the threat has been neutralized and the base pronounced safe. Last issue, we talked about the people who had died during the efforts. But this issue, we are going to talk about the survivors of the tragedy, the ones that saved the base from what could have been disaster. First off, let's talk about the newest recruit

Able Seaman(formerly Seaman) Spencer Remmington.

After just getting off of the new troops transport, he was able to take out a few aliens to boot! Even after only being on the force for a week, he has already been promoted to Able Seaman.

The next survivor is

Ensign(formerly Able Seaman) Jaime Marcelle

. Although he wasn't the strongest weapon against the aliens, he still played a vital role in taking them out. After being promoted for his work, he is still pwning aliens left and right and is lining himself up for another promotion.

Another survivor from the incident was

Ensign(formerly Able Seaman) Leon Dreyfus

. He was another major player in the operation to take the aliens out. He has become a major player in the newly formed squad, and is a potential candidate for the promotion to Lieutenant.

The final survivor was newly promoted

Commander(formerly Able Seaman) Edward Smilie

. After the incident, he stepped up and showed his prime leadership skills, and out of the 4 survivors was the best person for the vacant spot of Commander. He is currently training the newest batch of troops for battle to replace the fallen soldiers.

Let us never forgot what those soldiers did....

Here's the setup for this game:

You are

XXXXXX

, an Able Seaman (a merely average aquanaut). You will do anything to wipe out the alien threat, but you have no special abilities other then your voice and your vote.

You win when the H.Q is safe from all threats.

You are the

X-Com Director

, and you are the commander against the alien threat. You have access to information on almost anyone in the base, and can use this to see if they are a registered member of X-Com or not (i.e cop investigation). Other then that, you are just as vulnerable as anyone else who's in this room.

Active Abilities:
[Night]:You may check to see if someone is registered as X-Com personnel. You will get an "X-Com", "Non-X-Com" or "No result"(if blocked).

You win when the H.Q. is safe from all threats.

You are

Captain Stuart White

, one of the main leaders of the aquanaut force. You are one of the best on the team, and you've been trusted with experimental Ion Armor technology. This can even stand up to Sonic weapons, albeit once (one shot bulletproof). You've painted it to blend in with all the other people's diving suits, so no one will recognize it. You hope that this will come in handy for the coming threat...

Passive Abilities:
[Passive]: You are immune to 1 kill during this game.

You win when the H.Q. is safe from all threats.

You are

Lieutenant Otto Ulbreicht

, one of the members of the X-Com, the force against the aliens. When the M.C (Molecular Control) program started up, you were one of the first test subjects. You have honed your skills very well, and are invulnerable against almost any psionic attack. You sense that psionic threats are in this room with you, so it looks like your training will come in handy...

Passive Abilities:
[Passive]: You are immune to any sort of M.C (Molecular Control) attack.

You win when the H.Q. is safe from all threats.

You are the new recruit

Jaime Quevedo

. After receiving a letter confirming your acceptance into the elite ranks of X-Com, you hop on a special sub to be taken to the base. As soon as you get out of the sub and get a chance to gaze at the awe-inspiring base, you here blaring sirens and a person behind you saying to rush to the Sub Pen. You quickly grab a suit, awkwardly put it on, before you have a chance to wonder what's going on......

Despite the thrilling flavor, you have no abilities

You win when the H.Q is safe from all threats.

Notes: Here's the original version(which I sent UK :X) He was actually a Miller due to being not registered at X-COM yet.

You are just an average

Gill Man

. You have shown your worth in previous missions and encounters with X-Com, so you have been assigned to your biggest mission yet: Infiltrating a X-Com base. With the help of your fellow agent

XXXXX

(Real name:YYYYYYYY) the

Alien Hybrid

(GF), your superiors think you have a good chance at succeeding. Glory and awards await you if you claim victory......

Factional Abilities:
[Passive]:You may talk with your partner at this link:
[Active]:One of the Mafia members may kill a person at night. I will accept the last action submitted to me by the Mafia, so confirm with your partner during the night.

Passive Abilities:
[Passive]:You have learned limited MC abilities through much experience in battle. The first action directly used on you (Killing,Protecting,RB, etc.) will fail.

You win when you can take control of the Base(Your group is over 50% of the players), or nothing can stop you from this.

Notes: Due to there being no vigs or RB's etc, all this does is block a psionic attack.

You are an

Alien Hybrid

. The aliens have shown you their true colours as kind rulers of their people. Their honorable mission to show humans on the true path has inspired you to climb in the ranks to be the fastest recruit to be promoted to officer ever. It all reaches a climax in this mission: You are going to infiltrate a X-Com base. However, since direct attacks have failed, you are sent in to slowly sabotage the base. All you have for support is your fellow operative

XXXXXX

(Real name:YYYYYYY) the

Gill Man

(1-Shot Force Field). Only time will tell if your mission is a success.....

Factional Abilities:
[Passive]:You may talk with your partner at this link:
[Active]:One of the Mafia members may kill a person at night. I will accept the last action submitted to me by the Mafia, so confirm with your partner during the night.

Passive Abilities:
[Passive]: Since you are half-human, under a swim suit you will blend in perfectly. You are immune to all regular cop investigations.

You win when you can take control of the Base(Your group is over 50% of the players), or nothing can stop you from this.

Notes: GF protection doesn't do a thing against the Cop's investigate...

You are a

Tentaculat

. Through some twist of fate, nature made you much smarter than your own kind, enough to realize that through through M.C Control, you could make your own empire, and rule this world. You have planned for many months how you can possibly do this, but you see a perfect chance after listening into the secret officer radio channels. You find out there is a infiltration mission being planned to take out a X-Com base, and with much cunning, you sneak aboard the ship. After it lands at the base, you promptly take control of a guard and start your mission. The odds are stacked against you, but if you win, the world itself could be kneeling before you!

Factional Abilities:
[Active]:Every night, you may start M.C (Molecular Control) attacking a player. This player cannot use abilities till the attack stops (i.e You are dead) and will count towards your win condition. They will however, have the chance to pick one person to mentally lash out at any night. If they pick you, you (and all your recruits) die. If they pick someone else, they will be totally controlled by you, and you can then use their account to post in game (The original player will be kicked out of the game).

You win if you and your recruits/people under attack comprise over 50% of the town.

Also, I had to admit I was laughing when Stuart amazingly deduced that Emile was scum and got lynched for it. I was surprised no one thought that could have been an investigate even though there was no N0.
