Theme Test Market

[Claus]

Paranoia (The RPG) mafia - The computer is your friend - get those commies!
The Order of the Stick Mafia - plenty of interesting primary and secondary characters.



I would call dibs on some of these, but I'm not running a theme anytime soon. So I'd love to play these themes under another moderator.

I've been toying with the idea of setting up a

Nethack

Mafia - I've seen a number of people making nethack related jokes, so I wonder how popular it would be.

Basic Ideas (setup is nowhere near ready and I can't mod it yet)
- Almost no "intrinsic" powers (either town or scum)
- Powers come from items, which can be taken/given away (everyone is a potential inventor).
- Items can be used on self/other player/another item - sometimes for different results
- You don't know what an item does, unless you have an "identify" item (although what a Wand of Death does should be pretty obvious).
- Ability to loot corpses/Rooms.
- TDTTOE
- 12 or 18 players
- Possibly using the new fangled Deep South mechanic

Anyone interested in the theme/mechanics? Anyone interested in building up this game with me (Nethack familiarity required).
