I can't remember how fully I claimed but I'll do it (again) here.

I am Oberon's Flower. I make people fall in love. I spent this ability night 1 on Galron and Icebox. Apparently I may have a chance to buy another shot of the ability at some point, but the opportunity has not yet arisen, so until further notice I'm vanilla.

If there are any other aspects to my role, I am not currently aware of them.

A fair assessment, by a dude who knows
The pen’s the only weapon we all have
To puzzle out the traitors ‘neath our nose

In fair Mafiascum we lay our scene
To try, and trap, and trick our troubled lot
Where civil blood makes civil keys unclean
On what went wrong your last scum roll, think not

For if you’re town or not’s not a question of what’s true,
The vi’lent villagers lurking here decide your fate for you.
Please forgive the kinda-sorta-not-really rhyme in stanza 2, I bastardized the hell out of that one so I could get it done before my students show up

And yeah I'm over syllable count in the couplet but fook it, I liked it

And make myself a target for a scum pickpocket? Ha, good sirrah, thou wouldst like that too well!

I have six coins. It's not a question of affording my skill, it's a question of whether it becomes available for purchase. Right now, it is not "for sale" that I am aware of.

Not that I'm itching to loverize anybody right this minute.

Also before Bell calls me out for it, I am not a fan of Titus's EoD behavior. Posting from memory from the neighborhood post, the bulk of her recent ISO is dedicated to scumreading me and trying to get people to switch their votes to me. Especially the hard insistence that my loverization was scummy.

Then, when DV went to e-1 Titus voted there to hammer pretty quickly, even though there was time on the clock. Time was short, yes, but it felt abrupt to me.

And now we're back on the lim me train.

I'm not insisting it's scummy necessarily, as I generally don't think scum tunneling like that is likely. But it's not a great look from where I sit.

I may have put more in the neighborhood but it's locked now and I'm too clouded to dig it up

Hi, just got here. I'm a dreaming god. One of my abilities was worded in a way that implied either blocking kills or totally shutting down all night actions, so I used it tonight. I was also behind the neighbourhoods and reducing the daytime earlier.

I lied about my gold ability, it extends the duration of one of my dreams for an extra cycle. So nobody's dying tonight either.

I was also never poisoned. I claimed it early so nobody would go after me until I had enough gold to hopefully have two nights of blocked kills, and in case I was the only protective ability in the game

A global protect would have prevented our ability from triggering. This is a lie!
Also, this is kinda marci's point, but why would CoF have willingly used an ability that reduces the day phase length? If the ability names were indicative enough to suggest one was a kill stopper or action blocker, they should have made it clear that shortening the day phase or something else probably bad would have happened with whatever ability caused that.

Can you expound on this?

Do you not know what your gold ability does?

Do you have enough gold to use your gold ability?
@Child of Fairies, did you ever answer this?
Bringing this to current page
Been busy dealing with a huge storm, so:

my gold ability is an unknown that costs four coins. I won't know what it does until I buy it, probably. I'm one sonnet away from having enough, so I'm going to spend it tonight and see what happens.
How much gold did you have when you posted this?

Town global nightkill roleblock that can be extended to two nights doesn't sound like it is within the scope of power for a real role

as cathartic as this moment is I think we should hold on running this elim through until we can get the stuff done that should happen (massclaim finishing, giving me time to check associations). Games have become much closer calls for town when eliminations were rammed through vs. giving people time to process information.

You created neighborhoods
AND
reduced the daytime timer
AND
protected everybody from NK
AND
will do it again??

This ... stretches credulity

I would request a more clear description of your role. Were these all actions that were given to you at the start of the game? How were they phrased? Did you know what was going to happen when you used these abilities or was it somewhat randomly based (like the boxes thing)?

I'm just having trouble processing the ridiculous amount of *things* assigned to you and your claim is literally a couple of sentences of "oh yeah, that thing that happened, that was me"
