Victorian Vampire Mafia

Orsova

The chill moonlight wind blows softly over snow laden peaks, carrying a soft moan of despair as starving wolves howl against the light. The hard village of Orsova clutches tightly to the cliffs, the only rail out of town broken in a roar of deadly white. Gas lamps flicker, fearful of the shadows, and the peasants bar their doors and cower, clutching the thin remnants of their own sanity. In the graveyard old ground shudders, broken from below as ancient evil climbs from the sarcophagi, glinting fangs and desperate hunger. The scent of frozen death sings through Orsova, an omen of nights to come.

Game Play and Netiquette

Participation in this game is a commitment and a responsibility. Please take it seriously and be considerate to others. If you plan to be gone longer than 48 hours, please post a bolded notice in the thread.
Everyone deserves respect. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. These include disparaging comments on race, religion, age, gender, orientation, or similar characteristics. I will only moderate politeness in the thread for extreme situations, but keep in mind it’s just a game and act accordingly.
This is a closed game. Roles, private messages, and so forth may be quoted as desired; however, links may not be. Very small, invisible or encrypted text is not allowed.
Players will receive acknowledgement that night actions are received and will be notified of success or failure at the end of the night if they are still alive. No further information will be given unless the action specifically yields it (for instance, a cop’s investigation).
Players should not discuss the game in any way outside the thread unless the mod specifically allows it, and then only in the quicktopic linked in the message, which will be publicly linked after the game.
This game will start with a Day phase; Nights are 72 hours long, during which the thread will be locked. Any actions not submitted will be missed; any player or faction with an ability may choose not to perform it.
Players should aim for one post every 48 hours, minimum, to keep the game moving.
Days have three week deadlines. Extensions are given only in extreme circumstances.

Voting, Deadlines and Death

More than half of all living players must vote on one victim for a Lynch to occur.
Votes should be bolded and unambiguous or they may not be counted, and should be in the format
Vote: PlayerName.
Vote revocations should be bolded or they may not be counted, in the format
Unvote: PlayerName
or
Unvote
). Unvotes are not necessary before changing votes, but are appreciated.
You may
Vote: No Lynch
- a majority of these vote types will end the day without a lynch.
If a simple majority is not reached at the deadline the result will be determined by the largest number of votes. If there is a tie, or the game in a lynch-or-lose situation, the result will be counted as a No Lynch.
Once players have reached a majority no further voting will be counted for that day. After this point and before the end of the day – “twilight” – discussion may continue, including the victim. I usually post the final count a few hours before revealing the victim’s role, to allow for any last minute corrections (which will have to be sent via PM, as the thread will be locked). After that, I will add the player’s faction and a brief approximation of their role.
Dead players may not post within the game thread.
Town wins when all other factions are dead.

Mechanics

Blue
text is reserved for Moderation commentary, and will be used for all moderator comments inserted into player posts. No invisible or small text is allowed.
Vote counts will be posted regularly – usually once per page, or once per actual day. A count will be posted sooner if requested, but don’t abuse the privilege.
Italicized flavor text is just flavor text.
The mod does not lie. He does, however, periodically leave players to struggle with interpretation or founder under assumptions.
If you have an issue with the game, please message me privately. The game thread is not a forum for complaints.
I may make mistakes, and I appreciate being politely notified. Mistakes will be corrected where possible, but sometimes mistakes are made that cannot be reversed. These will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
Please bold any comments requiring my attention.
Inactive players will be prodded after three days without posting. A player who has been prodded three times may be replaced without further notice. If I fail to notice an inactive player, please notify me. I have little tolerance for lurkers - you have been warned.
Rules violations will be dealt with according to their severity, up to and including a Modkill. Modkills will not take the place of any normal game mechanics.
Any situation not explicitly covered above is subject to moderator discretion and will be handled as I see fit on a case-by-case basis.

All roles have been sent out. The game will begin once enough players have confirmed.

Shadows gather, flowing across the cobblestones like a spilt ink pot. A scream pierces the night: human or animal, it cuts off suddenly.

All but one player has confirmed; Day One begins now.

With 12 alive, it takes 7 to lynch.

Day One ends by April 20th at toll of midnight PST.

An oven fire spreads in the early hours, licks of orange roaring into the night. The people of Orsova rush to its rescue, but even the heat of the blaze cannot smother the chill down each mortal's spine as laughter drifts from the mountainside.

Come morning no trace remains of the baker or his family.

Who among us would delight in burning the poor townsfolk alive?

Who, in fact, would delight in such cruelty?

Vote: Yosarian2

for apparently having a Kingdom of Loathing forum account ...

And rather than just end with that fluff I'd like to ask a couple of questions ...

1. Anyone here have any long-standing grudges or odd personal history?
2. What's your favorite implement when cornering a vampire, werewolf or science abomination - pitchfork or flaming torch?

Posted: **Tue Mar 30, 2010 4:50 pm**

Vote: SpyreX

for being the first player to post

2. What's your favorite implement when cornering a vampire, werewolf or science abomination - pitchfork or flaming torch?

forgat the flaming torch, you need a bloody

FLAMETHROWER

to get them buggers down, and even then half the time they recover

OMGUS!!!!

Posted: **Wed Mar 31, 2010 3:51 am**

I don't have any grudges that I'm aware of.

Also, torches are clearly superior to pitchforks. If there is one thing classic horror has taught me, its that all supernatural creatures fear fire.

Posted: **Wed Mar 31, 2010 7:18 am**

While I dig questions and all that these two are somethin special.

But, whatevs

1.) Nope
2.) When in doubt, fire.

Ooba replaces Merkabah, who didn't pick up her PM.

Vote Count: Personally, I'd prefer a chainsaw.

With 12 alive, it takes 7 to lynch.

Day One ends by April 20th at toll of midnight PST.

As the villagers considered their defense a black cloud obscured the feeble winter sun. It dove towards Orsova, forming into a thousand black bats, screaming and fluttering through the streets. Moments later they passed on, leaving chaos in their wake - but fortunately no deaths.
