Long years have passed, and the old Chief has died. The customs of your people demand a new Elder must be chosen as the new Chief. And so a Spirit Moot must be held. But times have grown worse since the day the old Chief took up the reigns of power. Strangers have come to your land, and your people are fading away as these strangers have bested you time and time again. A new chief is needed, one who can restore the strength and vitality of the Tribe.
The ten of you have ensconced yourself within the Spirit Hall to decide upon a new Chief. The process is simple. You shall take votes to determine an Elder who is least worthy of the mantle of Chief. That elder is then ejected from the Spirit Hall, and no longer has a voice in the proceedings. Between each vote you take of the holy medicines and send yourselves on a Spirit Walk up to the Spirit Realm, there to seek the guidance of your spirit animals. But there are tests of strength in the Spirit Realm, and any who are found unworthy will be left unconscious when you return to your bodies. Those who failed are obviously unworthy of being chief, and so are removed from the Moot.
When only one Elder is left, that Elder is crowned Chief.
Dark rumors abound, though, that some of the Elders are colluding with the Strangers. They wish to abandon the old ways and submit to the invaders! Even worse, they are working together to force a situation where one of them becomes chief, and if the rumors are true they will do anything to ensure victory. This cannot stand. Your ancestors would curse the entire Tribe should such a thing come to pass! You will need to determine who these Elders are and remove them from the Moot if you want to have any chance at a fair election of the Chief!
Game has started! The first Vote phase will go until ~5pm Pacific Monday
Flavor aside, this is a typical Mafia Game. The Town players want to keep up the traditions of the tribe, so once all threats have been taken care of they win. (Chief will be decided randomly by me to simulate the rest of the Moot). The Vote phase is the Day phase, the Spirit Walk is the Night Phase.
