[Ljube]

We need a German speaker for Blücher.

Rogues and Bards: do they have to be LG?

[Skanky Burns]

We can't start letting people into both mafia and assassin games, because then everyone would want to be in both games. I know I want to join here too.

[Urban Ranger]

I agree. One of the other.

Interesting benefits and detriments, Darkcloud! However, I think the Druid's ability may be rendered useless. If you lose the ability to TOTALLY vote for the rest of the game, then why would you use your power? Perhaps you lose your vote for 3 turns and go into a coma for those 3 turns?

I want to play LJ's cool Mafffffia game too though Why are there so many cool games to play?

I think it's only the duration of the 4 turn coma that you can't vote.

I agree that that might be a bit excessive, however. Three turns does sound more fair.

But then again, by raising someone you are effetively extending the possible duration of the game an extra round, so maybe 4 turns is justified.

Some of the character specific rules look weird. For example, where your vote is doubled, along with all votes against you this looks like an overal negative effect. With these closed ballot games the votes are more spread out.

[General Ludd]

Maybe that should be replaced with just adding one or two extra votes going against him instead of doubling each vote cast against him.

[DarkCloud]

Oh no, the restriction is that they can't be Lawful Good

Okay the druid's detriment has been changed to 3 turns with no ability to vote... although It might be argued down to 2... but that is a powerful ability.

The votes against you are doubled the NEXT turn. But I like Ludd's suggestion- I would argue that you get an auto 3 votes against you the next turn for using that ability.

[DarkCloud]

revised list:

Paladin
(The warrior for good- the Paladin is pure of heart and must always act to nourish the weak, and correct injustice where it exists.
The Paladin can cast PRAYER, and healing spells to bless the troops...)
(MUST BE LAWFUL GOOD)
[Can Petition a god for guidance in voting ONCE per game.
(and the petition for guidance will result in myself voting for the correct assassin for your character- however your character will have no idea who I voted for)
[WARNING: Paladins, being Lawful Good, feel compelled to tell the group who they voted for if someone asks them.
They must search out evil wherever it exists- and, they figure, someone who kills, must be evil. Therefore, others should vote as they do. They fear no retribution. Their God will look over them.
Their votes will not be secret]
[NOTE: Only THREE Paladins per group of 20]

Ranger
[ONCE per game can choose to evade the Assassin and stay alert the entire day/night. However, because he falls lethargic, the next turn, the Ranger loses his vote]
(The scout. A great archer)

Fighter
(The generic warrior)

Barbarian
[ONCE Per game can determine one player to die whom he acuses of being the Assassin. None will oppose the Barbarian as he goes into his rage.
HOWEVER, the next 2 turns the Barbarian is withheld from the voting circle.]
(Man of the Wild- ferocious fighter)

Sorcerer
[ONCE per game can make his/her vote count double...but the same round that this is invoked- S(he) will receive an additional 2 votes against him/herself]
(Naturally attuned to magic)

Wizard
[ONCE per game can cast a diviniation and discover all the votes made by everyone the previous round- BUT can not vote next round]
(Researcher of Magic)

Rogue
(Thief)
[ONCE per game can change one person's vote to whatever he/she desires...but LOSES own vote next round. (fatigue/hiding from the other person's anger)]
(RESTRICTIONS- Lawful Good)

Bard
(Like a Skald. His magic comes from his music.)
[ONCE per game can negate two votes for him... the next round however, the spell wears out and three votes come against him]
(RESTRICTIONS- Lawful Good)
[NOTE: Only TWO Bards per group of 20]

Cleric
[ONCE per round can protect ONE player from the Assassin. The next round, the cleric loses his vote because he is tired]
(Servant of a God)

Druid
[ONCE per game can raise one player from the dead. After this however, the Druid loses all ability to vote and falls into a coma for 3 days. The person who is raised gains a special hint about the assassin.]
(Servant of Nature)
[NOTE: Only THREE Druids per group of 20]

Monk
[ONCE per game gains a specific hint from the Gods... This is a question/answer and must be along the lines of "is X a hint?" or "what does X mean?"
The next turn, the Monk falls comatose and cannot vote.]
(Hand-to-hand fighter. The Monk disdains weapons)
[NOTE: Only ONE Monk per group of 20]

[Imran Siddiqui]

Question: The person that the Druid raises, does s/he get a 'special hint' about the killer if they were assassinated? You know because they were killed by the Assassin. That and it makes the Druid's power more feasible. Why raise someone and lose to ability to vote for 3 turns for little benefit.

[Zopperoni]

I suppose the worst thing that can happen is that everyone uses his/her power simultaneously so that everyone falls into a coma the next round

[DarkCloud]

That's a good idea Imran!

It balances the ability out nicely!

[General Ludd]

The sorcerer is still listed as having all votes against him doubled after he uses his ability.
