The Human Role PMs Spoiler: Chuck Norris (Slaxx, nopointinactingup, chesskid3)
You were unfortunate to have eccentric parents who named you after a trivial two-dee action hero, and also the source of hundreds of years of poorly-constructed jokes. You were teased and bullied a lot in your high school years, and since you couldn't be bothered to give a fuck about grades anyway, you dropped out of high school at age sixteen and enlisted in the marines.

You possess two distinct personalities. The first aspect is perfectly complacent, always giving the correct answer to a given situation, obediently following orders, and smiling as the praises and accolades are showered upon you. Your other aspect is quite the opposite of the first, believing that you always have the right answer, that no one can do your job better than you, and that your superiors are a bunch of spineless assholes who think too much about keeping their dicks or pussies happy. You've managed to find a sense of balanced harmony between your conflicting personalities that appears amicable to most people, while excelling in your role as a military officer.

After you murdered Governor Sarah St. Kerrigan, you thought that things were going to take a turn for the better. Yet even as you began to establish the new Liten government, your every dream was haunted by one of two faces: Nik Anorr, your lover, and Sarah St. Kerrigan, the one you blamed for his death. Desperately you tried to forget that either of them existed, and the close relationship the three of you once had; slowly, over time, they faded away into the recesses of your mind, just the way you wanted it to be.

Your life has been about relationships. All your relationships had three things in common: they encompassed people you'd only recently met, they involved steamy sexual escapades, and they only lasted a maximum of three weeks. You hated all the superficiality, yet you couldn't kick the sexual addiction. This continued even after you were conscripted by the military to fight against the Arkons. Your ability to be stealthy and quietly take out your targets made you a prime candidate in the eyes of the Special Operations Branch, and it wasn't long before they recruited you to join their Meggido squad.

You were born on Liten, but to you the place was always a boring ol' dump, so as soon as you were of proper age, you took a transport off of Liten and went to a medical school in Saint Teresa, the capital city of the UTP planet Sanctuary, where you spent several quiet, uneventful years. When the Arkon invasions began, however, the Union Armed Forces sent recruiters to your medical school in an attempt to persuade young, adventure-seeking students to join the army as medics. Being one of those adventure-seeking students, you accepted the call, and after going through the medic's version of boot camp, you were deployed on the front lines.

Ever since you were a child, you'd followed your parents' faith; every night, before bed, you confessed your sins to God and asked forgiveness before falling asleep. You prepared to dedicate your life to God, dropping out of school to join a neo-Catholic monastery on a remote planet near the fringe of UTP space.

Even though you were an exceptional athlete and martial artist throughout your high school years, the only people who congregated around you were the shallow sycophants that simply leeched off your success to feel better about their own lazy, worthless lives.

In the seventy-odd years of your young life, you've become well versed in the ways of taikompesen.

You are also one of the few Arkons to have the privilege of acquiring a fourth name at such a young age. When strydbaruwed was initiated with the newfound alien race, the Akuhitoslik, your shapeshifting skills proved up to the task of hitoslik shapecraft, something not many Arkons were able to do.

You've always been klienkakaku, the underdog in akutaikompesen. It's not that you were bad, but every time you competed there would always be someone better. You worked diligently, though, and eventually you began to win in taikompesen. Still the Akushukot ignored you, and it wasn't until your one hundred and twenty-fourth year that you were awarded your fourth name. Desperate to prove your worth, you pitted your skills in Kogee Komimi against six Akushuk of the art, and triumphed over all six. As a result, the Shukot of Shutsuskadu Rolkubun awarded you the title of Shuk and allowed you to change your taikompesen to that Rolkubun. Even after proving your mastery of Kogee Komimi, you did not receive the respect you felt you deserved. Thus, you engaged in verbal taikompesen with the Shukot to allow you to join a worthy taikompesen; the result was assignment to the skadu team Malkyou, something considerably beneath your station; nevertheless, you endured the humiliation.

here Some Thoughts from the Mod
1. The final word count for the in-game flavor is 45,773 words. When the Role PM word count is tacked onto that, it becomes 55,118 words. I didn't even bother tracking down the Night Action PMs, but regardless, I did a
hell
of a lot of writing this game, even more than I'd originally anticipated (and I was already anticipating a flavor-heavy game). That said, at least I managed to actually finish the flavor process on time and make the final scene that much more poignant.
2. I am self-admittedly a flavor mod, but despite the quality of the story I presented, even I have to say I went overboard on this one. I let the story go wherever the hell it wanted to go, and I feel that this might've detracted a bit from the overall quality of the game (particularly when I got way behind on the flavor). One of the things I will have to do during my hiatus is reevaluate how I handle the flavor process of a game. I refuse to make low-quality flavor, but at the same time, there is a difference between doing well and doing too much.
3. The major new role in this game was the Medic, and despite putting two of them in the game, they still managed to die by Night 1's end. While frustrating, at least it was a humorous reminder of Murphy's Law. This role will be showing up in one of my games again at some point in the future, if only so I can actually see it in action.
4. The setup I felt was a little swingy (with a Vig and an Arkon Doc), but even though the Arkon Doc got lynched Day 1, the Vig misfired enough times that the Arkons weren't truly hurt by this loss. Then both the town protective roles went down Night 1, and a deathfest ensued. All in all, I'm happy with the setup (minus the minor fail on the Scout role, yet another half-decent attempt by me to make a combo investigative role).
5. Congratulations to the town on their first victory in one of my games! At first, I thought town had the sure victory, especially when they had all but one Arkon dead by Day 4. Magna played a hell of a game, though, and managed to take it right down to the wire. Yet another dramatic finish to a SaintKerrigan game (minus the cult controversy, lol).
6. I dropped a fairly obvious hint in the endgame scene for an upcoming game of mine that I'm expecting to overshadow Return to Liten in terms of epic scale, and not just in the flavor realm. It's been in development for over half a year, so I figured I'd go ahead and soft-advertise it. It's definitely not being run until summer at the earliest, though. (Just to drop a hint on how epic this game will be, one of the mechanics is going to revolutionize the entire player flavor and role aspect. Think RPG, but in a mafia game, and you'll get an idea of where I'm going with the mechanic.)
7. There
are
tentative idea concepts for a third Liten game, but as of now that's all there is. That said, if Liten 3 were to be run I'd definitely try to bring back the surviving characters to play a part in it.
Thanks for playing my game. It was a pleasure modding all of you (even if the flavor writing was hellish at times), and I'd love to see all of you in one of my games again.
