Spoiler: Hammer

Hammer, Maligned Friend of the Nisan Alliance

Hammer, a demi-human forced into imprisonment in Kislev, is a small time arms merchant and information broker that recently helped organize a prison break. However, his generosity was repaid by being left to rot in the prison system while his confederates got away cleanly, all while insisting they’d done nothing wrong.

Embittered by having his hopes and dreams dashed to bits for no discernable purpose, he was drawn to enlisting with the Alliance, lending them his inside knowledge and combat skills, and fueled by his unquenchable lust for revenge.

Abilities:

• Payback (Vigilante) [Active, Night, 2-Shot]
  : Being one of the few people who know the cracks in Solaris’ defenses, you’re in a unique position to perform a few strafing runs in your gear before they catch on and patch their shields.

Spoiler: Khan

Kahn Wong, Possessed Warrior of the Nisan Alliance

Not much is known about Kahn’s history other than he was an agent of Shevat before his mysterious disappearance. Although believed to be dead, the truth is that Kahn was defeated and possessed by the malevolent entity called Grahf. However, Grahf has not yet been able to seize permanent control of Kahn’s mind, and he travels incognito under the pseudonum ‘Wiseman’ on the rare occasions he wrests control back. Curiously, Grahf has no love for the Solarians, and their goal of Deus’ revival starkly contrasts with his own: to destroy the god that does nothing to prevent the endless suffering he has seen over the course of his existence.

Abilities:

• Triality of Consciousness (Ability Enabler) [Special, Night]
  : Being possessed is hard work! You’ll have to decide whether to yield to Grahf’s influence, masquerade as Wiseman, or simply take the direct approach.
  At night, PM me one of the following names: {Kahn, Wiseman, Grahf}. The chosen aspect’s ability will be enabled the following day or night (depending on who you pick). This ability MAY (and should) be used in conjunction with other abilities, and may not be blocked by any means. This is the only ability you may use Night 1. All aspect abilities are 1-Shot each.
  
  
• Aspect: Kahn (Commute) [Active, Night, 1-Shot]
  : You’ve spent the last few years running. What’s a few more?
  PM me saying you wish to commute. You will be immune to all actions that night. This ability cannot be blocked by any means.
  
  
• Aspect: Wiseman (Track) [Active, Night, 1-Shot]
  : Ah, now it’s time to get your hands dirty. As Wiseman, you’re accustomed to gathering information and staying hidden.
  Select a target. If your action succeeds, I will tell you who (if anyone) your target visited that same night.
  
  
• Aspect: Grahf (1-Night Neighborize) [Active, Day, 1-Shot]
  : Grahf, on the other hand, doesn’t mind taking a more direct approach.
  Select a target DURING THE DAY (before the hammer vote). You will be given a QT with this player the following night, and ONLY for that night. You may change your pick if you have already submitted and it is still daytime. If you do not pick anyone, this ability will still be available the next day.

This ability starts out ACTIVE, but you will LOSE this ability if you elect to use “Appearances Matter”. If this ability is consumed before you activate “Appearances Matter”, you will not be able to use “Appearances Matter” at all. This ability only works once.
  
  
• Playing the Part (Macho) [Passive, Special]
  : To totally allay suspicion, you will have to fully convince the general public that you really are just a helpless patsy.
  Any protective action on you will fail. This ability starts out INACTIVE, but you will GAIN this ability if you elect to use “Appearances Matter”
  
  
• Appearances Matter (Innocent Child) [Active, Day, 1-Shot]
  : You’re just a kid; there’s no way you could be a threat to anyone, right?
  Send me a PM during the day to confirm you as Nisan Aligned. However, if you do this, you will lose “ESP” and gain “Playing the Part”. If “ESP” is consumed before you use this, you may not use this at all.

Stone, then called Stein, was once a frontrunner for the Solaris Elements team at the Jugend Academy a few years ago. However, he was always exceeded by his contemporaries, and as a result, became bitter and vengeful. Leaving the academy and looking for revenge, Stone joined the Solarian fronted church, the Ethos Society. There, his mind became further evil and depraved, and he began to conduct illicit experiments on humans in order to build his own private army. As Solaris considers him useful, they allow him to operate under their watchful eye, hoping they can reap the fruits of his labors.

Id, Split Personality of the Solaris Empire

Id, alter-ego of Fei Fong Wong, is violent and sadistic, in stark contrast to the kind and just man who, unable to cope with the horrors he’s seen, spawned him. With no true loyalties, Id is known for little more than a capricious love of destruction and death. Lucid enough to work with the Solarians at times, Id has discovered that the Empire is more than willing to lend him weapons and ether in return for his services, and for now, that suits him just fine.

Now, with the village on the precipice of being caught in the conflict, Fei has decided, however reluctantly due to his pacifistic nature, that he will join the Alliance to defend his home, and that more importantly, he will never allow a lust for battle to consume him and cause him to forget exactly for what he has been fighting.

First time I've ever had to replace out of a game. I still feel bad about it.

Still, I had to keep checking back just so I could read the flavor. Well done, bork. You crafted quite an entertaining story.

[waynegg]

Sweet.

Lessons learned this game...

Never reply to somone else's heat or a question posed to a particular person. It gives scum an out. If Andy hadn't replied to Varsoon's heat the game would have ended two day phases ago.

Don't make plans because plans suck and are easily lead astray by scum.

Trust in myself more and don't be pushed off my reads. The game would have ended even sooner if I had stuck to my guns on my narrowed list of Anti/FTL. Btw, is that why you killed me Varsoon?

Wtg Anti!

[waynegg]

And thanks for another hella fun game Bork!

[Varsoon]

I killed you because it was a fun pun to make in the QT.

Also, because I knew that if we got to lylo together, you'd be voting me.

Fun mod notes:
1) Scum team couldn't recruit AJ - any kill on him would have done nothing. Instead, he could rejoin at his leisure, but he would lose his abilities, AND Andrius' role would stop working.
2) The two main characters, Fei and Elly, were both fakeclaims. That might've mattered if more people knew the flavor, but I think only Varsoon and nhammen for sure knew it, and they were both scum.
3) I'm really proud of some of the roles I came up with - Billy was the first one I thought of, and I liked Dominia's as well. I wanted to mix in some ho-hum roles (vig, vanilla cop) so that every single role didn't look too complicated to be fake.
4) I was really impressed by most people's play overall. I actually read this game, unlike Xenoblade which came too fast for me to keep up with.
5) Mac's role originally was an SK. I abandoned it when I decided I wanted a 1 faction game.
6) Still 4 slots left in my mini theme :):):):):)

Billy was the first one I thought of

I liked the role. Merely out of curiosity, what ability would it have stripped from each of the scum PRs?

[borkjerfkin]

Miang's redirect, Krelian's inventor, Stone's Vanilla Cop. Roleblock was not up for stealing, even if she had used redirect already, purely for balance reasons.

[Cabd]

Hitting the traitor wouldn't have worked?

[borkjerfkin]

He had no active abilities.

[borkjerfkin]

Oh, rejoin team? No, wouldn't have worked on that.

[Cabd]

Shame. Making the traitor strip naked woulda been pretty funny.

[Nachomamma8]

I JUST DIDN'T FIT IN

[Nachomamma8]

I can't believe scum actually targetted TF on night 3

[Nachomamma8]

with a vanilla cop

[Nachomamma8]

just read the dead QT.

Hey nacho,

thanks for saying "I believe" twice when everyone else was calling me an idiot (and saying "I believe" at the same time)

I appreciate it.

<3

What's weird is that apparently he really DID get conflicting results on antihero and I.

[borkjerfkin]

He didn't investigate AH at all, so that's not true.

[Cabd]

Or would have, rather, had he been able to use his ability.

[borkjerfkin]

That is also not true, and is my fault for wording it shittily that you thought that.

[Cabd]

Huh. Maybe I dreamed that. My dreams during this lylo have alternated between "bastard game, bork was scum" and "antihero hammered trust fund after agreeing to buy varsoon a pizza"

[borkjerfkin]

agreeing to buy varsoon a pizza

fucking loled

[Cabd]

My nightmares apparently involve xenoblade throwbacks, yes.
