Murders in Strangetown (Sign-Ups)

Strangetown is a town full of mystery- and murder! Can you and your fellow citizens find the killer before it’s too late? :eyes:


Hello lovelies! Welcome to my roleplay/forum game hybrid, Murders in Strangetown, also commonly called Mafia or Werewolf. I based the forum version off Murders in Thunderclan on Chicken Smoothie. Have fun ^^

Roles

The game starts when 9 (or more, but it has to be an odd number) people join the game. The Game Leader is then decided by which name is next in the queue, and he/she PMs the player roles out to the participating members. These roles include:

:: The Murderer ::
This player is the target of all the other players. During each round, before the Voting Stage, the Killer PMs their target to the game leader. Despite this, the Killer still votes during the voting stage. It’s recommended (and warned) that this person should and probably will try to remain anonymous in the group and act natural.

:: The Guard ::
The guard’s role is to protect a certain person. At any point in the round, the Guard cat can PM the Game Leader the person he/she wants to protect. The protected person is protected from the Killer’s attacks. However, if the Guard doesn’t PM the round leader before the Killer does, it’s effects are null.

:: The Witnesses ::
There are two witnesses. These people act like the citizens and don’t have an ability they can use to protect/kill another member, but witnessed a key event or has a key fact that points to the identity of the killer. They aren’t allowed to reveal their role nor their hint, but may accuse anyone as much as they want, and convince others to do the same.

:: Couple / Best Friends / Siblings ::
These people are very close, and are almost always together. If one person in the pairing dies, or is exiled, the other will leave the town. There will be two pairs of these.

:: Citizens ::
These people are completely regular. At least 60% of the players fall into this category. These players don’t do anything except for during the Voting Stage, when they post their vote in the thread on who they think the Killer is.

How Rounds Work

: Start Of The Round ::
The Guard has until the Killer sends in his PM to decide who to protect.

:: The Kill ::
The Game Leader writes a theatrical version of the kill and posts it in the thread after he receives the PM from the Killer. Whether or not there are any hints in the text pointing towards the killer is completely up to the writer; the text is mostly made to be enjoyed.

:: Voting Stage ::
All people post who they think the killer is in the thread. The killer also posts in the thread but tries to draw attention to someone else by voting for another person.

:: Banishment ::
The person with the most votes is banished from the town. The Game Leader also writes a theatrical version for this.

After the round ends and we start all over again till the Killer is finally caught.

These are the three ways the game can end!

– The Killer is voted off. [The town Wins!!]
– The Killer is left alone with a witness. [The town Wins!!]
– The Killer successfully kills all the other members.[The town Loses!]

Characters for Current Round
Josalin Ruiz

Username – SilverRose

NameJosalin Ruiz

Gender – Female

Job – Photographer

Short Description – It is difficult to describe Josalin Ruiz in a few sentences… but what you must not forget to mention is her courage. Yes, Josalin is really brave. She is not afraid of anything and is able to take all the risks to get something she really wants and cares about. She is very athletic and knows how to fight (her uncle was her teacher), and besides, she is an excellent discussant, she can formulate arguments that cannot be beaten (all thanks to her grandmother Zaira). Josalin is very quiet and apathetic. She doesn’t like to talk about her emotions and rarely shares her problems with others. Josalin is also not interested in what others are experiencing, she can be as cold as an icicle, and her sensitivity is practically non-existent. Josalin is also a real sanctuary of peace… In addition, Josalin is intelligent, patient and makes conclusions from her mistakes. She can think quickly in the most extreme situations and makes logical decisions, even under pressure. Josalin is simply special. Period.

She the definition of an ambivert person, not introvert nor extrovert, but she’s a social person who needs her own space and feel free.

Ooh, I might join this! I have to finish reading the whole description but from what I’ve read so far, it doesn’t seem like this takes up that much time right? Cause I’ll be busy for most of March so I don’t really have time for additional role plays

It doesn’t take much time at all, it’s more of a forum game with RP/SG elements. If you can’t roleplay, just put in your vote at the end of each round ^^
