[The Jackal]

RULES

The game will run on a one deadline clock of 9 PM EST for lynch votes and night actions.

Mafia is a game of lying, deceit, and mauling. Especially mauling.

Each day you will vote for one person to be lynched. The player who receives the most votes will be killed. The results of a tie are only known by the moderator to begin the game. No lynch is allowed.

ROLES

Vampire - There will be two vampires in the game who can communicate with each other freely. Each day they will choose one person to be killed at night.

Hippie (Seer) - You've been growing a stash of.. less than legal drugs in your back greenhouse. A pleasant side effect of this is that you've become in tune with the people in your small community. Each night they may choose one player to "view" and will be told if that person is a vampire or a human.

Prisoner (Sorceror) - You are a frequent visitor to the town jail and are quite fed up with the people in this community. The Prisoner counts as a villager, but wins with the vampires. The vampires' and prisoner's identities are unknown to each other.

Mayor (Duke) - You have a little sway with the people of this town. Once during the game you may change the lynch vote to any person you desire, revealing you as the Mayor.

Villager - You have no special powers, sorry. Find and kill the vampires to win!

The scene : It is the 16th century and you live in a small village in what would now be Eastern Siberia. It is the dead of winter and you are caught in one of the fiercest snowstorms you've seen in years. You have plenty of food and water stored, though, so there shouldn't be any problems.

Problem. The cries of dogs from the edge of town lead you to the mangled corpse of Vladimir Jackal!

With the storm keeping you from going any great distances, you must deal with this problem yourselves. Each day you will confer and decide on who must be punished.

Begin!
