As I always have trouble remembering Supernatural's roles and powers, I made this cheat sheet to help me along. I post it here for posterity and hoping it will help others in the future.

Updated to include this Semi-Bastard, and slightly trimmed to keep it under the 40kb limit.

So, one of True Majesty would know that the way to get inside is to Command others to their Deaths for his gain. For that is what Rulers must do. A harsh lesson learned early.
That is actually... absolute bullshit. 'Majesty' is not a property of the royalty, it is their title. That would make much more sense if it read 'only True Majesty would know...'.

My initial thought was that if someone willingly sacrificed themselves, that would be a key to being judged worthy.  Whoops.  Funny that the devil got taken out by random chance.
Heh, that's what I thought too.

Meph, did the skull do anything?

Also, epic game, even if the flavor was a bit wonky and balance was kinda bad. I'm looking forward to more bastards from you. :D

1) What was that about the water in the bowl? What hidden bastardry did you have waiting for us there?

No, he just specified that he wanted to sample the water.

Quote
2) Had Tiruin gone for Imiknorris as target, instead of Jim (popular guy, btw! if not for Org's superpower, all three killers would have targeted him N3!), he would have killed him, leaving only Tiruin and I alive D4, yes? If so, how would the day develop? He was unlynchable, but I wasn't about to vote myself, so how would I be compelled to touch an orb?

The Statue would have forced you to touch the Orb, since you'd be the only left who could Activate it.

Quote
3) Likewise, if Imiknorris had gone for Tiruin instead of Jim, it'd be just the two of us D4, neither unlynchable, neither suicidal, incompatible wincons... what would have happened?

The Templar would have won. I'd probably have had him seriously injure you and then force you to touch the orb or something like that.


I was surprised that Tiruin was left alive, though, since he was an unlynchable SK at that point. I figured more people would have tried to kill him.

Mostly because he didn't seem just unlynchable, but unkillable (at least permanently). After what happened N1, I just assumed that if I killed him, he'd just eat another corpse (there were plenty of those) and get back up, so what would be the point? But yes, maybe we were too quick to dismiss it, though it really worked well in the end... depending on your answer to 3) above, not killing Tiruin could even be called optimal.

Yes, but I was still kind of surprised he lived. Worked out well for the two of you, at least.

Yes, it would have. But this was a Trap designed to give people a false impression of what to do. Only those who already know what to do are supposed to understand the true meaning.

Yes, it gave an extra power boost to whatever faction used it beyond what the normal sacrifice would have done. But it was used by the Ghoul, so it was basically wasted.

I should have killed Tiruin.

Why didn't you anyway? It was crossed out and there was a deleted message in the Templar chat.

I chose Jim because I wanted to weaken the strongest faction, but didn't want to hit his protection on Dariush.

You made him unlynchable and (pretty much) unkillable, and were surprised he survived? Heheh.

Yeah, I did get lucky. Thanks to Jim for being a N3 kill magnet, otherwise every other scenario would have had me dead. Better to be lucky than good, and all that. 8-)
