Vector to avoid shenanigans.

Vector is chosen next. There are no real objections to this choice, but for whatever reason, they seem to smile as the votes tally up.

7 to hammer.

The scribe simply nods, and inscribes the results of the vote, and calls upon Most Elder for judgement.

Vector smiles slightly wider before a bolt of death strikes them and their avatar breathes no more.

The truth must be revealed, and so it is. This may be your first triumph - or your first loss.

For Vector's alignment was Mafia.

The spirit of their avatar rises, waves goodbye cheekily, and slips away, much to your astonishment.

What unnatural magics did they call upon?

Vector's role was the Public Universal Enemy.

Quote
Public Universal Enemy (mafia):
(Disabled, Auto) Speak of Evil: Your words are vile and honeyed. When you act on a player, you may choose to give them the “Congregation” Status. When you act on a player, you may choose to let them know you visited them.
(Auto) Wandering Spirit: You may communicate in the scumchat after your death, as your spirit rises from its grave.
(Night) Dire Revelation [target]: You listen for unearthly knowledge, and learn your target’s alignment, along with whether or not they visited a player possessing the “Congregation” Status this Night.
(Night) Mesmerizing Sermon [target/self]: You demand to be heard. Each player with the “Congregation” Status changes their target to your target if they (the player being redirected, not your target) are using a single single-target action this Night.
(1-Shot, Night, Mafiakill, Innate) Unholy Martyrdom [target]: You breathe your last and claim an unfortunate soul for your own. You may, and may only, use this ability the Night after your death. If your target has the “Congregation” Status and they are Town-aligned, their alignment changes to Mafia-Ally. This does not count as a kill action.
Quote
(Reference) (Status) Congregation: You are claimed by an unearthly power. If you would be killed, the kill action fails without informing its user. If this occurs, you lose this Status. However, if you use a kill action on a Mafia-aligned player, it will fail without informing you. (Conditional kill actions don’t count if they don’t trigger their lethality.)



Ten left. For you, this may be a setback or a step towards victory. Who can tell?

The shadows welcome your avatars.

Night 3 has begun. Night 3 will end Friday October 28th, 6 PM, Central/forum time. It is unlikely to end early.

Note: I'm going to process any additional end-of-Day occurrences a bit later than normal, since I need to get some sleep. To be precise, I already have the processing done, I just need to write up and send the PMs, I'm just worried that I'll mess it up if I don't get some sleep first.

Give me a few hours. If I don't take care of this immediately after that, then I'll extend the Night end to make up for it.

Right, I’m handling that after I get home from work. As such I’m extending the Night end to the same time Saturday, with much higher potential to end the Night early.

Your avatar steps back into the waking light. There are still quite a few players left. Nobody seems to have died during the prior dark-shrouding, but perhaps that is to be expected...?

Ten remain.

What remains to be done? There are still villains amongst you all - perhaps you even are one.

Day 4 has begun. Day 4 will end on Monday, 6 PM Central time, October 31st, or on a hammer.

... So, what did you do last night NJW? I'd expect Jack to panic, though guess vector is still around.

Swapped myself with TolyK and dodged Vector's conversion...

... Although I would say that, wouldn't I?

The sky rumbles. Lightning crashes, and booms. It rains blood for just a moment, then the weather fades.

Bloodred ink splatters through the windows and crashes upon the floor. It washes over you all briefly, splattering, surging, binding.

It drips down and etches sigils, runes. Quickly it describes numbers. Time passing, and the inevitability - of your death.

You realize (unless perhaps you caused this?) that this is the Mafiakill itself. That spell shared amongst the true villains of every FBYOR, that lethal action.

You have just been mafiakilled.

Well, not yet.

It's more accurate to say that you will be mafiakilled. That is... unless you stop it.

Quote from: Final Countdown
(1-Shot, Day, Mafiakill) Final Countdown: The end is nigh. This action can only be used on Day 4. When you use this ability, its full text is publicly revealed in the thread. The Mafiakill can no longer be used. If you are still alive at the end of Day 5, after the execution, kill every living non-mafia player in the game immediately, unstoppably, and irreversibly.

Yep, I only see you, me, TricMagic, and Nakeen have been online recently enough to have done that, although I suppose it could have been an action sent in a discord chat rather than a PM to the moderator.
