GAME, PLAY AND CHARACTER HINTS:
* This game has some complicated or non-standard roles. If you are unsure about what you are allowed to do, etc., ASK ME.
* Beware! There are built in game consequences for missed actions.
* Some of you may have abilities related to your role that need to be or are enabled by another player. Your character description may or may not reveal all of the details to you.
* Every single character either has a power/role that can help their side, or has the possibility of gaining one during the course of the game.
* Dead characters will show only affiliation (color) and abilities at time of death. (i.e. If young Billy dies before the wizard tells him the magic word that allows him to become Captain Marvel, he’ll show as Billy, Vanilla Townie, not Captain Marvel, Earth’s Mightiest Mortal, Town Super-Hero.)
* Some of you, make that MANY of you, risk severe consequences if you CC or share information unwisely. You have been warned.

THIS IS HOW THE WORLD ENDS!
Yesterday, Mayor PC declared an emergency and put Fabletown and the Farm in “Lockdown”. Rumors abound and everyone is anxious to hear his official statement this morning. PC steps onto a raised platform hastily erected for the occasion and holds pieces of a wooden soldier up to the light of cruel dawn.
“Yesterday morning” he announces in a grim tone, “we discovered that Fabletown has been infiltrated by forces of the Adversary! The Adversary has apparently begun a campaign of war by assassination. We know that he has other agents in place here in Fabletown.” He pauses to dab a single, manly tear of sorrow and anger from his eye with a monogrammed handkerchief, and then empties a sack of manikin-like wooden parts on the platform.
“This wooden soldier” he continues, “was glamoured to look like Hobbes. It was discovered by... well, for obvious reasons I won’t go into that, but we were unable to capture it intact to question it. Until further notice, be alert for behavior that seems different. However well they may be magiced to look like one of us, the Adversary’s soldiers won’t be able to act like one of us for long.”
As the murmurs of fear begin to circulate among the crowd, he raises his voice and confidently states “We are working on various ways to root them out from among us. For the next few days Fabletown and The Farm are in ‘Lockdown’ and a sunset to sunrise curfew is in effect.”
PC takes a moment to look at the sea of frightened faces before him. “It’s going to be a rough few days, my friends. But we have overcome the wiles of the Adversary before, and we WILL get through this!”
For a moment, such is his charisma, the crowd believes him, and cheers... but then, remembering the grave danger they face, they begin to split up into small groups for security, and to ask each other hard questions as they try to discover who they should trust.

ALL STANDARD "IM TOO LAZY TO CUT AND PASTE THEM FROM ALL THE OTHER GAMES" RULES APPLY.
You all have experience playing mafia games, so I do not feel the need to have an expressed written list of how to play this game and what not to do.
-------------------------
The town quickly decided to try to cut off the threat from the source, so they
decide to lynch the person in charge of this whole thing.
and with a dash of his pen,
Grimmy The Mod - Bill Willingham - Creator and Author of Fables
- has been written out of this story. Things can only get worse from here now that the Deus Ex Machina has been removed from play.
Day 1 has begun.
with 12 alive, its 7 to lynch.
Preliminary deadline axe shall fall on January 22nd, unless something occurs to change this.
