Hey. I'm from Kira Game Forums, figured I'd join here and correct & clarify a few things The Master said.
#1- It's not dedicated to roleplaying. We do have some forum and IRC run roleplaying games we do, such as Adventure Game, but that's not the main focus.
#2- What we ARE is a pretty cool forum where we lots of Forum Games. The main ones we do are based on the anime/manga Death Note. They're pretty cool. The one The Master linked you guys to is one I designed, but requires more active players for it than we have at KGF, as we're not exactly a big forum like this one, alas.
#3- What he did get right is that we're pretty cool forum community, (even The Master is cool, if you get to know him
), and we're always accepting to new members.
Anyway, we're a small, chill, forum where we come up with crazy forum games to play. The current forum, which is
, is our 2nd forum, an upgrade from our last one, and still fairly new.
EDIT- Now that I think about it, I'd be fine with hosting my latest Kira Game design here, at Bay 12, if people are interested. Post here if you're up for it. Need 30-35 people. Rules and class info are
. It's a bit like the game Mafia.
EDIT2- LOL he removed his post. But you guys get the idea- we do forum games and other such fun stuff.
Execution each night in game is by plurality vote. No execution if tied. Possible to vote for no execution. No item can be passed more than once a day. Innocents (and Beyond Birthday) can only be successfully recruited ONCE. Last team standing and surviving innocents win. No ghosting. Everyone alive in the game has the ability for voting for who to execute each night in game. Votes should be in bold posted on the thread. Other actions are done by PMing me the action.
TEAM KIRA
You are Light Yagami, a young man who found a Death Note. I’ll be honest with you- the power has gone to your head, and you want to rule the world or something. You’re the leader of Team Kira. You’ve given away your death note to Mikami, but you still have a scrap of paper from it, which you keep on you at all times. Your dad is Police Chief Soichiro Yagami, by the way.
ABILITIES:
Investigate: Will reveal to you either that a person is on an enemy Team, or that they are innocent.
Smooth Operator: If investigated, you will be informed and know who investigated you. You will also appear to them to be a plain innocent.
Eye Deal: If you think you think someone is going to kill or arrest you, you’ve got a temporary escape- The Shinigami Eye Deal. You will gain the Shinigami Eye ability, for use once a night to write a name on the Death Note scrap hidden in your watch… and will die 2 days after taking the deal.
Hi, Dad: If investigated by Soichiro Yagami, he will know you are Light. This overrides Smooth Operator's plain innocent appearance, though you'll still know you've been investigated.
Death Note Scrap- Write down someone’s name in your Death Note Scrap, killing them. Your Death Note Scrap is hidden, and cannot be stolen.
Pass Death Note Scraps: You may recruit innocents to Team Kira by giving out 1 Death Note scrap per day anonymously.
You are Mikami, a prosecuting attorney and overly righteous hardass. You also happen to be the second-in-command of Team Kira, and pretty much worship Light. Your goal is to survive, and have team Kira win.
ABILITIES:
Shinigami Eyes: You learn the name of your target when you use this. Can be used once per day.
Death Note: Write down someone’s name in your Death Note, killing them.

Death Note: Write down someone’s name in your Death Note, killing them.
Obvious: If you are investigated, you will be identified as Misa.
Tragic Love: If Light dies, you will immediately commit suicide.
Rem: If someone shoots you, they die instead. Automatic, one use. They will die of a heart attack, just like the normal Death Note power, and you will not be shown to be Misa in the plot. If you are executed, the last person to vote for you is killed by Rem.
You are Takada, the high-school girlfriend of Light, and his official spokesperson now that he is Kira.
ABILITIES:
Public Figure: People know you’re Takada. You are the public voice for Team Kira.

The second will become Aizawa if an innocent, and will gain the ability to investigate on odd nights, even if he wasn't an innocent. The 3rd will become Soichiro Yagami. The same rules apply.
Steal: May steal an item (such as a gun, bulletproof vest, riot helm, death note, or death note scrap) from a player of your choosing, once per game.
