    So, I'm gonna make this short and sweet. The game plays exactly as a regular mafia game would (not WitchHunt or anything special like that), except in that it has a special mechanic.

    Before the game starts, when you sign up, you will send me 3 things. A character you wish your role flavor to be drawn from, (optionally) role flavor FOR that character so I don't have to research it myself, and an ALIGNMENT of one of (town, scum, third party). You will send me your first and second choice for alignments. I'll be trying to give everyone their first choice, but there might be weird weird balance shit that requires me to do something other than that.

    All players will be given a power or multiple powers. This is a vanilla-less game. As such, this game is classified as HUGELY BASTARD. Please understand this before you signup. This won't be high level professional mafiers. This is just for fun and profit.

    To sign up, I'd like to have you post an "/in" in this thread, and also PM me with the above specified information. I will confirm your /in by putting your name in the OP.

    Note: This game may take a little while to get running after signups are completed. Creating roles from different canons and flavours and then balancing them with alignments and other stuff is not a simple task.

    Oh yes~.

    Nope! If you point hand me wiki pages and flavor I can do something from it though!

    (and yes obviously the better I know the canon, the more I can get creative).

    I'm going out of town soon for a couple of weeks, so sadly I cannot play.

    How bastardly? Is it high power or are we just straight-up lying in our role PMs?

    Also, while we're asking, what info are we given?
    Is it flip on lynch?
    Do we know the division among factions? (i.e. # towns, # scums, # third party.)
    Do we know exactly what roles there are in the game? (And what faction they belong to?)
    Etc, etc.

    Hey, welcome back, Zen. Long time.
    Terrrrr, get on this.

    Remember in Dangan Ronpa Mafia, when the fortune teller said he got liek 20% results but he was really a 0% JOAT?

    That's the sort of "lying" I'd be doing at maximum. I'm not going to outright tell you "you're a townie miller" and then later be like "jk you had a secret rolepm you're really scum gg".

    I will maybe omit information. For example, in a past CYS game there was a guy who auctioned off items. The catch was, once he got enough money from those items, he left the game and anyone who had bought an item from him at any point DIED.

    So, that sort of bastard. I'm not going to be an asshole, but there will be funny role interactions and shit.
