Rules

The first day will have a time limit, and after that majority will rule. All votes must be bolded. Votes within a quote box are not counted. Players may decide, with a 2/3 majority, to abstain from killing anyone during the day. A simple majority is required for a lynching.

Most characters have their roles revealed when lynched. No roles are publicly revealed for night deaths unless specifically noted in the Role description. Demons and the Demon Hunter learn the role of their victim if they kill someone during the night, unless otherwise noted.

No night posting is permitted. A dead character may PM me final words, and I will post them at my discretion.

The Demon Hunter and his Assistant may PM each other once each day, and may chat freely at night. All characters who are Demons or were Demons may chat privately at any time.

It is possible for a Demon’s and Demon Hunter’s night actions to conflict. Action order will be determined with a coin flip.

Anyone who does not post or PM me for a full day/night cycle will be replaced. Anyone who does not vote two days in a row will be replaced.

Roles

Role Title: Villager
Immunities: None
Abilities: None
Private Chat: None
Win Condition: All Demons are dead, at least 3 villagers are still alive (includes Priest and Oracle), and the Demon Hunter has won or lost.

Role Title: Angel
Immunities: Immune to possession, but vulnerable to night kills. If the Angel is targeted for possession, he learns the identity of the Demon who made the attempt.
Abilities: Can protect one player other than himself each night. This protection prevents death and possession. If his ward is targeted for death, the Angel learns the name (but not the role) of the attacker. The Angel gains no information if an attempt is made to possess his ward.
Each night, the Angel has a chance to discover if the Priest has been possessed.
Private Chat: None, but the Angel knows the identity of the Priest.
Win Condition: Same as Villager.

Role Title: Priest
Immunities: None
Abilities: Uknown
Private Chat: None
Win Condition: Same as Villager.

Role Title: Oracle
Immunities: Immune to Possession
Abilities: Receives a PM at daybreak with the identity and roles of everyone who died during the night. The Oracle may have other, unknown abilities.
The Oracle is always listed as a regular villager if killed.
Private Chat: None
Win Condition: Same as Villager.

Role Title: Executioner
Immunities: None
Abilities: The Executioner’s vote counts as 3 votes.
Private Chat: None
Death Reveal: The Executioner is a publicly known role. The first Executioner is randomly selected from the list of Villagers (including the Priest and Oracle). If the Executioner is killed during the game, a new Executioner is voted on via PM.
Win Condition: Depends on Role. The Executioner can be pro-Village or pro-Demon. A possessed Executioner retains his enhanced voting.

Role Title: Demon Hunter
Immunities: He cannot be killed at night, and he will commit suicide if possessed (destroying himself and the demon). If a demon targets him for death, the attempt simply fails.
Abilities: Must kill one player during the night if the village failed to lynch a Demon or the Diabolist during the day. The Hunter may opt to kill someone during the night even if the village did lynch an evil player.
Each night, the Hunter has a chance to discover if his assistant has been possessed.
The Demon Hunter’s role is revealed if he dies during the night.
Private Chat: Only with the Hunter’s Assistant
Win Condition: All Demons and the Diabolist must be dead, and the Demon Hunter must be alive.

Role Title: Hunter’s Assistant
Immunities: None
Abilities: The Assistant appears as a villager if lynched. Other abilities are unknown.
Private Chat: Only with the Demon Hunter
Win Condition: Same as Demon Hunter. If the Demon Hunter dies, the Assistant receives a new win condition.

Role Title: Demon (Number of Demons depends on total number of players)
Immunities: None
Abilities: Each night the Demons may choose one of their numbers to possess or kill a target player. If a Demon successfully possesses a target, the Demon “dies” and the newly possessed player becomes a Demon.
Private Chat: Demons may chat with one another at any time during the game. Any player who was a Demon at any time during the game may join the chat.
Win Condition: The Demon Hunter, Hunter’s Assistant, Angel, and Priest are all dead.

Role Title: Diabolist
Immunities: If possessed by a Demon the Diabolist acts as a conscious vessel. The Demon will still “die”, but the Diabolist does not become a Demon. The Demon within the Diabolist can use the night action on a subsequent turn to leave the Diabolist and possess another player. The Diabolist can participate in the Demon chat while housing a Demon spirit.
If the Diabolist is targeted for death by a Demon, the Diabolist does not die, and the Demons learn the Diabolist’s identity. The Diabolist always knows which players are Demons.
Abilities: Unknown
Private Chat: Only while inhabited by a Demon.
Win Condition: Same as Demon

So if Demon A possesses Villager B, Demon A dies, and Villager B becomes a demon?

If so, when Demon A dies, will the write up announce that "A" was a demon?

Roles are not revealed for night deaths (with the exception of the Hunter). When a Demon possesses someone, only the Oracle knows it was a Demon who died.

A few new questions (thanks for the clarifications already, btw):

If the demons try to possess the oracle, will he know anything happened?

"Each night, the Angel has a chance to discover if the Priest has been possessed" Does this mean that on the one night the priest is successfully possessed, there's an x% chance that the angel will be told that fact? Or, once possessed, is there an x% chance every night that the angel will find out?

(Same qustion with Demon Hunter's "chance")

I assume that a possessed Assistant can still chat with the DH normally? And the demons at the same time? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Possessing the assistant would be a huge win for the demons!

If the Assistant dies, and the DH wins, I assume the Assistant wins too.

I assume the Demon win condition is also satisfied if the targets are possessed, rather than killed.

Does the Diabolist need to be alive at the end to win? Or can he still win if he's killed on Day 1 and then the demons win later. (Just checking)

Thanks!

...it will instead have a minimum post limit of 2000, before nightfall can be reached.

Nope, the Oracle gets no information about the attempt, and the Demons only know it failed.

There is a chance the Angel will learn if the Priest has been possessed every night, starting the night the possession occurs. Same goes for the DH with his assistant.

Your assumption is correct.

Yes.

[/ QUOTE ]
Yes, all targets must be dead or converted (where possible).

I need to think about this one. I intended for the Diabolist to win with the Demons, regardless of if he died, but now I am not sure.

I was trying to decide if the existence of the diabolist is a plus or minus for the demons. Seems like he's a weaker demon, barring unknown powers. He's a demon who can't always chat, and who might cause the demons to waste a kill/possession attempt on him before they know who he is, and who (before they know who he is) the demons might choose as a lynch target.
