Spoiler for Common Mafia Terminology:

General Mafia Rules

1. Do not post, chat, OR PM ANY revealing information if you have been killed/removed from this mafia. You are allowed one death post that contains no information or commentary about the players.
2. You are not allowed to edit or remove your post. Instead, EBWOP will take effect. This means you must post again with the correct fixes.
3. Directly quoting or providing proof in any way of any PM sent by the host will result in an instant modkill and referral to the FGO.
4. You are not allowed to directly quote any PM sent by another player, unless you are quoting it to a fellow mafia member confirmed by the host.
5. You are not allowed to request to be modkilled in the thread. If you PM the host requesting to be modkilled, the host must find a substitute or modkill you at the end of the phase.
6. All players' actions should be primarily motivated by winning the game. Throwing the game or outing your teammates for no strategic value is not allowed.
7. The host has the final say in any dispute. Do not impersonate the host.
8. Any flaming/trolling will not be tolerated.
9. Players' actions should be motivated by this game's events solely. You may look at past mafias to determine behaviors for better reads, but keep personal affairs out of the game.
10. Anything said within the context of the game, including promises, bets, etc, stays within the game. Players can lie, deceive, and manipulate, (but not cheat) in any way they like. Slander within the context of the game is usually not meant as a personal offense.
*Any use of the word PM by the host or FGO refers to any method of communication outside of the game thread and the blab chat.

Breaking any of the above rules may result in a modkill as determined by the host, or a ban from future mafias or forum games in general as determined by the Forum Game Organizer.

tl;dr Mafia 75 rules minus Deja plus Half Blood minus everyone being Fate Egg

Based on Mafia 34 by Elbirn. Heavily modified by Linkcat, Coffeeditto, and killsdazombies.

Game Rules

1. The game will start on Night 0, which will be followed by Day 1. You may post during the Night.
2. The Nightkill is factional and cannot be tracked or roleblocked, but still counts as an ability that targets.
3. If the lynch is tied, No Lynch will occur.
4. You are allowed to vote for No Lynch. You are also allowed to vote for a 24 hour extension. The votes are counted in a separate tally and you may only do one extension per phase.
5. Clearly declaring your intent to vote without using the proper format is a valid way to vote.
6. Town wins if all the Mafia are dead. Mafia wins if they achieve parity at the beginning of a Day.
7. The Day will not end until both the timer has ended and 7 minutes have passed since the last vote was cast or the last vote count was posted. This extension cannot be triggered by the same player twice in a row. If any sort of endless voting loop occurs that affects the lynch, there will be No Lynch. The day will be ended at the host's discretion if there is any vote swapping trolling/juggling, or if they set a hard deadline which cannot be extended.
8. If you do not post for three consecutive phases, or for any 2 Day phases, you will be modkilled.
9. NO COMMUNICATION IS ALLOWED OUTSIDE OF THIS THREAD, EXCEPT FOR PADS PROVIDED BY THE HOST. You may communicate in the official Elements blab chat, but all relevant messages MUST be posted in this thread immediately afterward. Not following this rule will result in the chat being restricted.
10. I reserve the right to make any changes to the ruleset in order to maintain the integrity and balance of the game.

Primary Roles

False Gods

The False Gods start the game as a team. Their goal is to kill all of the Elementals. Each Night, they perform a Nightkill on an Elemental of their choosing. The Nightkill interrupts lower priority targets.

Elementals

The Elementals are the townsfolk of the game. Their goal is to kill all of the False Gods through lynching and the use of abilities.

Half Blood

The False Gods know who this is, but the Half Blood does not know who the False Gods are. The Half Blood counts as an Elemental for parity, but their goal is for the False Gods to win.

Secondary Roles

All Secondary abilities are activated by PMing your action to the host during the Night Phase. You may not target yourself with any ability unless specified. If an EoR ability fails, you may use it again on the next Night. If an OU ability fails, you may use it again.

Key:
ER - Every Round.
EoR - Every Other Round.
OU - One Use.
Passive - Triggers Automatically.

Information Roles

Golden Nymph - EoR
Precognition - Target a player. Reveal their Primary role to you. You cannot be protected from the Nightkill. Exactly one Elemental and zero False Gods or Half Bloods will start with this role.

Psion - ER
Psionic Link - Target a player. Their secondary abilities are revealed to you.

Dragonfly - ER
Fly on the Wall - Target a player. You see who they targeted and who targeted them this Night, regardless of priority. Only sees successful ability uses.

Firefly Queen - ER
Queen - Target a player. Generate a firefly that follows them. Your fireflies will report back to you each Night with all abilities that they saw successfully activated, but the cute little guys aren't smart enough to tell you whether an ability was used by your target or on your target. Fireflies are unaffected by all abilities that prevent targeting. If a firefly doesn't witness any abilities, it will wander near your target and be caught. The target will be notified if they catch a firefly. Fireflies cannot report higher priority activity on the first Night they follow a player, and will act as not seeing an ability if that's the only thing they would see.

Iridium Warden - ER
Guard - Target a player. They can not be targeted by other players' secondary abilities, and you learn the names of any abilities blocked.

Offensive Roles

If two roleblocking roles with the same priority target each other, both abilities fail. If only one targets the other, the ability of the one that was targeted fails.

Toadfish - OU
Inflate - Target a player. They are now Poisoned.

Otyugh - OU
Devour - Target a player. They die and your role is publicly revealed. If you eat a Toadfish or a player that was Poisoned, you become Poisoned.

Mind Flayer - ER
Psionic Wave - Target a player. They cannot use their ability this Night.

Arctic Squid - ER
Freeze - Target a player. They are now Frozen.

Ghost of the Past - ER
Obsession - Target a player. When you die, even if you no longer have this role, the player you targeted most recently has their secondary abilities replaced with Obsessed - ER - Activates automatically. You can't stop thinking about a dead man.

Defensive Roles

Guardian Angel - ER
Heal - Target any player including yourself. They are protected from the Nightkill and any further Offensive Roles that target them this Night. This ability fails if the target was Healed by a Guardian Angel on the previous Night.

Graboid - OU
Evolve - This Graboid role changes to Shrieker. As long as you have the Graboid role, you are Burrowed.

Shrieker - ER
Burrow - You are now Burrowed. You may not start the game as a Shrieker.
Unburrow - If you are Burrowed, you are no longer Burrowed.

Seraph - EoR
Divine Shield - You cannot be targeted this Night.

Phoenix - OU
Ash - This role automatically activates during the phase you die. If this ability is successful, you can talk after your death.

Anubis - EoR
Immortality - Target any player including yourself. They become Immaterial.

Green Nymph - ER
Adrenaline - Target any player including yourself. They gain Adrenaline.

Amber Nymph - EoR
Unstoppable - Target any player including yourself. They gain Momentum.

Iridium Warden - ER
Guard - Target a player. They can not be targeted by other players' secondary abilities, and you learn the names of any abilities blocked.

Role Roles

These roles do not disappear when you use them. When you die these roles will be revealed along with any others.

Crusader - OU
Endow - Target a player. You gain their secondary ability. Passive abilities trigger immediately.

Vulture - OU
Scavenger - Target a dead player. You gain their secondary role. If they had multiple roles, you gain the one listed last on their death.

"Fun" Roles

Fate Egg - Passive
Hatch - Activates automatically at the start of each Night. You receive a random secondary role other than Fate Egg in addition to your current roles, and you are disguised as that role if investigated or revealed. You will not receive the same role twice in a game. The role given by Hatch is replaced every time Hatch gives you a new role, but abilities given by Endow and Scavenger will stay.

Status Effects

You are notified when you gain a status effect, except for Poison which notifies you on the start of the Night in which you would die. Status effects are permanent, unless mentioned otherwise.

Burrowed - You may not vote or be targeted by any ability. Burrowed players do not count towards parity. Voting while Burrowed without Adrenaline will result in a modkill.

Poisoned - You die at the end of the first Night Phase after you were poisoned.

Frozen - The next time you attempt to use your ability, it fails and you are no longer Frozen.

Adrenaline - You ignore the Frozen status, you may vote while Burrowed, and you die immediately when Poisoned. If you have an EoR ability other than Precognition, you may use it as if it was an [ER] ability.

Immaterial - You may not be targeted by any secondary ability. Wears off after death.

Momentum - The activations and effects of your abilities can not be prevented or redirected, unless the target is Burrowed. However, being Frozen or Guarded can still block your ability. Momentum does not help abilities that would normally fail (no consecutive Heals). Ignores Immaterial.
