SwAg Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Roles: Town-Aligned (cont.) Socrates, @NS922 Quote Socrates, SwAg’s Inner Troll, Town-Aligned You are Socrates, a classical Greek philosopher who is known for the “Socratic method,” which is essentially harassing individuals with perpetual questions until they acknowledge their ignorance. You were put on trial, with a consequence of death, but instead of defending yourself, you continued to criticize everyone because you are that much more intelligent than everyone else. Ability: You have no active ability at this time. You have a series of required tasks that you must complete, with rewards becoming progressively better with each completed task. If you complete a task you will receive a corresponding ability. - If you achieve your final task your final ability will: automatically remove one non-Town entity from the game. Every Day Requirement: You may only respond to questions with questions. Day 1 Requirement: You must role-claim Jesus and demand the blood of all sinners, but also lament the pointlessness of religion, as it is solely a tactic for manipulation. If you’re lynched, you will appear as Jesus, SwAg’s Lawn Care Specialist, Heaven-Aligned, and I will mod-resurrect you on Day 3 (because Jesus). Furthermore, you will be excused from any Day 2 Requirement, as though you had successfully completed it. Requirements are revealed upon the success or failure of the previous requirement. Day 2 Requirements: - You must "double post" everything you wish to say in separate posts. You cannot acknowledge the double posts, except to accuse the people who inquire about the the double posts. You are clearly not double posting, why are they making **** up to make you look bad? - Respond to anyone who votes for you by belittling their intelligence or ability to understand, as they are clearly useless serfs incapable of understanding your brilliance. Day 3 Requirement: You must role-claim THE BOMB. All of your posts. must contain a reference to bombs or explosions. If anyone questions this claim, you must incorporate the phrase: "Did someone say... THE BOMB?" into it. Day 4 Requirement: Role-claim Satan and push a lynch of a person of your choice as the Cult Leader who stole all your beloved Mafia subjects. Day 5 Requirement: You must role claim Darth Vader, Godfather of the Fictional Characters Mafia. You must further claim that your Death Star will be complete tonight, which will end the game. You must inform the Thread that they better find your last remaining teammate if they want to have a chance of stopping you. Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. Alton Brown, @bcb1213 Quote Alton Brown, Cooking with SwAg, Town-Aligned You are Alton Brown, devious mastermind of all that is culinary. You have a bizarre repertoire of knowledge related to food, which is resoundingly identifiable due to my secret passion for the Food Network. Also, who can forget the canonized classics of Cooking with SwAg? A Mafia Classic that must make its way back to the forefront of our attention. Anyway, you cook, and you give it to people. Mouthgasms for everyone. Ability: You may choose one of the following abilities each night. - Research Cooking and Recipes. o Your cooking quality improves, which (1) increases the likelihood of your dishes to achieve your desired result, (2) reveals the effects of other food item, or (3) makes new recipes available. - Cook Protein Pancakes: Roleblock or Motivate (double their night action) Target. - Cook Turkey Dinner: Yummy, yummy! Effects unknown. - Cook Tacos: Yummy, yummy! Effects unknown. - Poison Food: Kill, Incapacitate the following day phase (cannot post or vote), or reduce their lynch vote requirement. Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - If the selected recipe has a typical time requirement to be prepared, and the player submits their action in a shorter time period than that requirement, there is a 50% chance the food will be undercooked, and thus poisonous. - These determinations will be drawn based upon cook time allotments from Alton Brown’s Cookbook. - E.g., Tacos typically take 20 minutes to prepare. If the Action is submitted less than 20 minutes before Night Actions are due, the food has a chance to be undercooked. - Tacos gives the eater one of any of the abilities available in the game. Recruitment abilities are 50% less likely to be selected. DMX, @The Orca Quote DMX, Voice in SwAg's Head, Town-Aligned You are DMX, a rapper who is incredibly angry. I constantly listen to “X Gon Give It To Ya,” “Party Up,” “Ruff Ryders Anthem,” and “Where The Hood At” because it reinforces my Bonafide eThug persona that I have meticulously cultivated. Ability: You can target one player each night to hype them up, which results in their role being enhanced. (E.g., if you target a player who attempted to roleblock another player, his ability will be enhanced to a nightkill.). This is a genuine example of role enhancement (roleblock à kill), but otherwise, you will not be informed of what the individual’s role was enhanced from or to. Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - Hyping up the same person on multiple occasions has a 50% chance, with escalating percent chance, to render the target Vanilla, and replace their role as the PGO. Elon Musk, @kingseanjohn Quote Elon Musk, SwAg’s Narcissism, Town-Aligned You are Elon Musk, the average psychopath who exudes pervasive narcissism. I mean, it is not your fault that you are that amazing. I mean, how many other people were the first person to put a car into space? Yeah, that is what I thought. But more importantly, you create other cool gadgets, doodads, devices, and equipment. Maybe that could be some use here? Ability: You have multiple abilities to choose from each night. - Experiment: Create a prototype of a new device that you can then use on subsequent nights. - Personality Attribute Compatibility Ray: Blast someone with your compatibility ray to determine if their personality trait is complementary to your own. o If it is, you will be permitted to form a mason group with that player. o If it is not, well, you don’t know what will happen, but it’s not happening to you, so it’s hardly your problem. Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - May either become Mason or Cult, depending upon the personality attributes of the group. May shift back and forth. The determination is based upon the collective internal positive and negative scores for each personality trait that is recruited to the group. If Frank Reynolds dies, automatically becomes Cult as Narcissism is the strongest SwAgtribute (removes shifting). Sherlock Holmes, @gopherwrestler Quote Sherlock Holmes, SwAg’s Intuition, Town-Aligned You are Sherlock Holmes, the prototypical and stereotypical detective that is seemingly immaculate in both his logic and strategy. You are able to deduce an incredible amount of information from very simple, seemingly innocuous interactions and clues. If you did not come before SwAg, I would assume you were modeled after him. Ability: You may choose from one of two investigative abilities. - Random Investigation, which will reveal: o 30% Chance Alignment o 30% Chance Character o 20% Chance SwAg Attribute o 10% Combination of Alignment, Character, or SwAg Attribute o 10% Chance Fail - Cryptic Investigation, you will receive a series of clues and your ornate power of deduction will reveal: o 30% Chance Cryptic Clues o 20% Chance Alignment o 20% Chance Character o 10% SwAg Attribute o 20% Combination of Chance Alignment, Character, or SwAg Attribute Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - If he does not target non-Town with his investigations within three nights, he will lose his mind, and be forced to speak in only gibberish and votes until he targets non-Town. Aaron Hernandez, @squire12 Quote Aaron Hernandez, SwAg’s Psychosis, Town-Aligned You are Aaron Hernandez, former NFL Tightend, my favorite player, and an innocent man that was clearly framed. Maybe you wouldn’t have stalked Odin Lloyd and killed him if you did not watch him talk to people you did not like. I mean, who is really at fault here? Anyway, you stalk people you’re suspicious of associating with A-Hern haters, and may lose your cool if you find one. Ability: You may target one individual each night to be tracked or watched. You may choose which ability to use first, and then the abilities will alternate each night thereafter. (E.g., if you Track on Night 1, you will Watch on Night 2.). Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - Aaron Hernandez hates disloyalty. It's why he left Odin Lloyd in a shallow grave. If his target is non-Town or has an interaction with non-Town, he has a (50% Watch, 33% Track) chance of killing the people involved. Each person's chance is calculated separately. Karl Marx, @Dome Quote Karl Marx, SwAg’s Socialist Tendencies, Town-Aligned You are Karl Marx, a genius ahead of his time, who is akin to a God. You inspired generations of proletariat revolutionaries to resist the shackles of the bourgeoisie capitalist oinkers who seek to extract their surplus value. As long as you’re alive, which you are eternally in my heart, Town will have a chance. Ability: You have no active ability. You have two passive abilities: - As long as you are alive, the Town cannot lose. - If you are alive for a Town win, all Town members will be credited with a win – even the lumpen serfs who none of the old Bolsheviks like. Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - Will kill Jeff Bezos or Bernie Madoff if targeted by them. Vladimir Putin, @SwoleXmad Quote Vladimir Putin, SwAg’s Recklessness, Town-Aligned You are Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, a tiny-pecker strongman, former KGB/FSB assassin, and (admittedly) a badass. You are a man’s man, so manly that even Soviet Russia memes cannot contradict your masculinity. When you’re not wrestling polar bears or being saluted by pigeons, you’re assassinating journalists and political opponents. But doesn’t that become tiresome? Maybe it is time for a break. How about, we down a bottle of vodka and play a rousing game of Russian Roulette? Ability: You may initiate a game of Russian Roulette during any day phase. This is a one-time ability. You will select two players who will join you in the game. At least one of you will die in the process of the game. Win Condition: Eliminate all threats to Town. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - Upon using your ability, you will be prompted in-thread to place the number of bullets in the gun and spin it. RNG will determine who begins (1-20 dependent upon position on player list, Price is Right Rules). The game will go until all bullets are gone. If everyone dies and bullets are remaining, the gun will "drop" in the thread. There will be no mention of it, but it could be picked up by the person who bolds Pick Up Gun.

SwAg Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 Cult-Aligned Karl Marx, @Dome Quote [Character and SwAgtribute Remain The Same] Ability: Each night you may target one person for conversion. If you select a player with a complementary or vulnerable Swagtribute, he will be recruited to Cult-Aligned. - Recruits will retain their existing abilities, but will no longer have unlimited uses (if applicable). This limitation is dependent upon the role. Win Condition: Control the Day Lynch Vote. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: Whoever you recruit, upon my confirmation. Independent-Aligned Lord Voldemort, @Tk3 Quote Lord Voldemort, SwAg’s Sociopathic Tendencies, Independent-Aligned You are Lord Voldemort, the Dark Lord of the Harry Potter Universe. You are endowed with not only unparalleled magical prowess, but extraordinary intelligence – and a complete lack of empathy. You are on a quest to purify the Town of undesirables while en route to immortality. Ability: You may target an individual for death every night. (Flavor: It will be a magical kill… It will be abundantly clear Voldemort is the killer.) Fake Claim: You are the only character in this game from the Harry Potter Universe. Feel free to construct a fake claim based off this or other information. Win Condition: (1) Achieve immortality; (2) eliminate all enigmatic entities; OR (3) survive to the end of the game, with a Town loss. You must achieve only one of these conditions to win. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: Lord Voldemort is vulnerable to role modification from several other roles. o Varied Effects: Lower lynch requirement, role block, death, percent chance of failure, etc. - Voldemort is prone to fits of mania and psychosis. May become unstable after being lynched or a failed kill attempt. - Voldemort is particularly susceptible to narcissism. (Motivated or Hubris if effected by Narcissism). - If Voldemort kills a “power role,” (Mafia, select Town Roles, and SwAg) he has the choice to create a horcrux (item that tethers him to life, even if killed), but each horcrux carries a consequences of an escalating rate of ability failure. SwAg, @theuntouchable Quote SwAg, God of Mafia, Independent-Aligned You are SwAg. Honestly, there is no higher praise that I could lavish upon you. You are of keen mind and body. Both your magnanimity and ferocity exceed the bounds of credulity. You are not easily satisfied. You have high expectations for yourself, and lament anything less than excellence. Ability: You have a series of abilities that operate on a token charge system. You begin the game with seven (7) charges. - 1. You may use one ability each night for its generic charge. However, you may pay an additional charge to utilize more than one in a single phase. (1 Charge) - 2. You may reduce the required hybrid-hammer lynch requirement to 25%. (1 Charge) - 3. You may increase the required hybrid-hammer lynch requirement to 75%. (1 Charge) - 4. If you die under any circumstance you will return to the game following one phase, so long as you have sufficient tokens remaining. (1 Charge) - 5. You can use any active ability that is otherwise in the game. You select this option and you will be randomized an ability from the game that you may either hold, abandon, or immediately utilize. (1 Charge) o If you opt to hold the ability, you may not use the random selection ability again until you utilize the ability. If the player whose ability you are holding dies, the ability’s effectiveness is reduced, but you are refunded a token if it fails. - 6. You may force the Day Write-Up to occur prior to the Night Write-Up, and extend the time for night moves by 30 minutes. (In other words: you will see the lynch result before night moves are locked). (1 Charge) - 7. You may ask me one non-game-breaking question once in the game, at any time. (No Charge Requirement). o However, if you ask what I subjectively consider to be a game-breaking question, you forfeit this power. (Example of Game-Breaking Question: Who are Mafia? What is everyone’s role?). Don’t get cute. - 8. Remove the Day Phase deadline, forcing the Thread to utilize the Hybrid-Hammer or No Lynch mechanism to end the phase. (2 Charges) BONUS: You are eligible for bonus charges and abilities. You may unlock these rewards through mini games that assess your SwAg, and by acting like SwAg in the thread. There are measurable parameters for the latter assessment, but they are HIDDEN. Win Condition: You’re not in this for the win. You’re in this for the recognition. Yeah, an official metric for winning is beneficial, but you’re primarily interested in game dominance. You want to be right, and not only be right, but make other people embarrassed by how right you are. You want them to be so demoralized that they think twice about signing up for the next game. You’re probably less enthused about that, so here is your boring, measurable win condition: (1) Survive to the end of the game; OR (2) Win the Post-Game Best Player Award. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. HIDDEN: - See LaRon Landry Hidden Section (revival not guaranteed once LaRon is dead). - If he failed at four bonus games he would be charged for not knowing his SwAg. Tabula Rasa, @MD4L Quote Tabula Rasa, SwAg’s Impressionability, Independent-Aligned Your namesake is derived from the Latin phrase for “Blank Slate,” which has long been endowed as a psychological and philosophical theory of the mind. We are all created as an empty vessel that is ultimately crafted by our experiences. We are all malleable to the accident of our circumstance. Ability: - Active: You may choose one player each phase (day and night), and if that player is killed you fully assume their role, with knowledge of any hidden information related to their role (if applicable). - Passive: If you have not assumed a role by Day 3, you will have a role generated based upon your game experience. o The role is influenced by various factors, such as your interactions with other players, which players targeted you, lynches votes, etc. Win Condition: To be determined. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. Al Capone, @MD4L Quote Al Capone, SwAg's Hatred of Others, Independent-Aligned You are Al Capone, a bootlegger and feared gangster during prohibition. People who oppose you have a way of turning up in cement shoes, or otherwise…uncooperative with the authorities. Recently a few people were down on you when you were down on your luck.... You’re not one to forget. No one crosses you.Ability: Every night you can choose an individual to receive a threatening message. If this individual posts more than X-amount of times (RNG), then he will be killed in a drive-by shooting with a tommy gun, and the last person he quoted is also at risk... Win Condition: Outlast the people who voted for you on D1. You may communicate outside the Game Thread with: No one. Mafia-Aligned Jeff Bezos, @Hockey5djh Quote Jeff Bezos, SwAg’s Capitalist Greed, Mafia-Aligned You are Jeff Bezos, who is the owner of Amazon, and tantamount to a slave owner. It hardly matters though because I would lovingly support this type of labor exploitation if I keep my Amazon Prime membership. However, that is neither here nor there, you are the richest man in the world (for now, divorce, yikes), but you want something that money cannot buy: SwAg’s mind. Ability: You have multiple active abilities to choose from each night: - You may give an Amazon gift to another player. The gift is likely to yield the player some type of benefit, but it is also a listening device that allows you to spy on their night actions and gain information on their role. o Due to Amazon’s generous return policy, players are permitted to return items. - You can entirely cancel a night phase. The next day will immediately begin. Everyone’s ability will be blocked. If any X-Charge abilities are used, the charges will be consumed as though they were used. (SINGLE USE) - Money can buy anything. If one of your teammates dies, you may attempt to bribe a remaining player to join your squad until one accepts. This ability can be used in addition to another ability. Win Condition: Control the voting majority. You may communicate with: amac, Ted, and Pickle Rick. HIDDEN: - Recruitment success dependent upon the character's association with money. E.g., characters such as Voldemort and Karl Marx have no chance, whereas characters like Bernie Madoff and Brett Kavanaugh have a high chance. Rupert Murdoch, @TedLavie Quote Rupert Murdoch, SwAg’s Irrational Bias, Mafia-Aligned You are Rupert Murdoch, a slimeball whose worldview and lack of moral compass are detrimental to the continued existence of western civilization. You provide a platform for vile creatures to spew propaganda. You somehow convinced a ton of morons to believe all of these opinion shows are actual news. I’m sure that is a relevant talent in Mafia. Ability: You have several abilities to choose from each night and one passive ability. - Passive: o You will appear Town-Aligned to alignment investigations. o Your teammates will have a single investigation immunity for the first investigative role that targets any of them. (E.g., if one of them is targeted by any investigation, it will simply fail, but then no other player is subject to that protection.). - Active: o Frame a person to appear another alignment. The individual will remain appearing that alignment for two phases, including post-death (if applicable). o You may write a news broadcast or report to appear as a portion of the Nightly Write-Up. o You may do a single Daytime Breaking News Update, which will function the same as the nighttime broadcast, but occur during the day phase. (1 Charge). Fake Claim: There are no other journalists or news-related figures in this game. Unless you count Jeff Bezos because he owns the Washington Post, but he is on your team, so shut up. You may use that information to construct a fake claim. Win Condition: Control the voting majority. You may communicate with: Hockey, Ted, and Pickle Rick. Agent 47, @amac Quote Agent 47, SwAg’s Malice, Mafia-Aligned You are Agent 47, a clone-hybrid produced to be an unstoppable killing machine, cerebral master of disguise, and smooth dancer. Catch you off guard with the last one, you clearly did not play enough Hitman games. Anyway, you are adept in your craft and nearly unstoppable when motivated. About time we rewind to some old Blood Money **** and remind mofos why they don’t **** with you. Ability: You may target an individual for death each night. - The kill is transferable to other faction members if you die. - You have a passive percent chance to break through protections. - You have a passive percent chance to appear as another player when executing the kill. Fake Claim: There are no other characters from video games in this game. You may use this information to construct a fake claim. Win Condition: Control the voting majority. You may communicate with: Hockey, Ted, and Pickle Rick. HIDDEN: - 50% Chance to survive Night Kill. - 50% Chance to survive Lynch. - 50% to Kill or Silence final vote if lynched. Nelson Mandela, @Pickle Rick Quote Nelson Mandela, SwAg’s Empathy, Mafia-Aligned You are Nelson Mandela, a modern human rights hero, and one of the greatest humanitarians to ever live. You are not only responsible for ending the oppression of black individuals in South Africa under the oppressive apartheid regime, but reforming the nation as a more prosperous place. You are generally revered throughout society, which has prompted you to have great daytime influence. Ability: You have one active ability and one passive ability. - Passive: o You have a Double Vote, which is counted toward your win condition. - Active: o You may target one person each night to protect from night kills. Win Condition: Control the voting majority. You may communicate with: Hockey, Amac, and Ted. HIDDEN: - If you outlive your teammates, their votes will continue to count toward your win condition for three phases. - If you hammer vote a person, you will gain their vote (giving you three, then four, etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwAg Posted January 27, 2019 Author Share Posted January 27, 2019 I tried to give you all clues. I thought that since people overanalyzed Dome's OPs, they would at least scrutinize mine: Quote The battle is about to unfold, and what may control, are the secrets that remain untold. Told you hidden information would be crucial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
