"You walk up the steps to Gibburg Manor. Who knew you were gonna end up at the party of the noble Gibber the Sane? But you received the invitation, and now you're here. But some people have their own agendas...
Gibber the Sane pulls up a fork and dings it on his glass. "I'm so glad you are here for this party. This is a rather fine experience, for both you and me. I'm sure you will have a great time h-- wait, what was that?' The noble's face tenses up. Using his extreme agility and nimbleness (10 feet of movement! So fast!) he dodges as a fireball streaks towards him and explodes against the wall. The noble scans the crowd. 'Now, which one of you threw that? It appears... there is Mafia among us. Well, I'm sure with my expert detective skills we can--' a portal opens up behind Gibber and traps him inside of a demiplane. The portal then closes. Then all doors to exit the mansion magically shut and lock. Only one thing left to do-- find out the mafia."
Howdy! Cool intro, huh? I really liked that Gibber the Sane character, he's really cool. Ok, but all jokes aside, this is the mafia game I'm hosting! For those of you unaware, TheHarperMoon had the idea of running mafia on ddb. After that game ended, VitusW decided to keep the trend going and ran another. Now I'm doing it! If you're interested say you are below. This game is going to be a classic mansion murder mystery theme, but fantasy based as well, especially with the roles. Speaking of roles, let's get to them! But one thing-- this game is going to have some custom roles! Custom roles will have (NEW) next to their name. Because I haven't playtested these yet, feel free to provide feedback as to what needs to be nerfed or changed, or whether a role should be scrapped entirely or whatever.
TOWN ROLES--
Regular Partygoer (Vanilla Townie)-- no special abilities, sleeps at night.
Seer (Detective/Cop)-- You have practiced Divination magic and have gained the ability to scry on someone each night. Scrying will only tell you if the target is guilty or innocent (neutral roles count as innocent)
Guard (Vigilante but with a twist)-- Your goal is to protect the mansion by finding and killing the mafia. Each night, you may choose someone to kill. However, killing a townie will cause you to lose guard privileges (you will become a vanilla townie). (Thoughts on this change?)
Warding Wizard (Doctor)-- you are a master of shielding spells, and may put a warding shield on someone each night. If a killing role attacks that person, they are safe and do not die.
Dungeon Keeper (Jailer)-- who knew there was a dungeon under the mansion? You do. Each night, you can put someone in the dungeon for that night, not allowing them to use any role abilities.
Charmed Townie (NEW, although basically accomplice)-- 'Ooh, I like cookies. Sign me up!' Will only appear in the game if the Charmer (see below) uses their ability. Counts as mafia technical-wise (for example, will be part of mafia making up 1/2 of town, is included into the mafia chat thread, abandons previous role, and tries to help the mafia win.
MAFIA ROLES--
Barbarian (mafia goon)-- eligible for carrying out a night's kill. Normal mafia.
Chain Devil (Consort)-- You have the power to animate and control chains. Each night, you may chain the door out of someone's room. This will roleblock them, like the Dungeon Keeper.
Villainous Seer (NEW)-- you have tapped into forbidden magics that the other seer was too afraid to learn. When you scry someone, you learn their specific role, not just their alignment. Eligible for carrying out a night's kill. (You may not scry and kill on same night.)
Charmer (NEW)-- 'Join the Mafia Side! We have cookies!' you have an ability that you can only use once a game. You may use enchantment magic to charm a townie to your side. That townie becomes a Charmed Townie (see above). The town will be alerted when someone is charmed, and if you die the charmed townie dies as well. You are also eligible to be the one that carries out the kill for the night. (You may not charm and kill on the same night).
NEUTRAL ROLES
Jester-- is trying to get voted out. You win if you do, and everyone else loses.
Cultist (NEW)-- you must bind the souls of everyone in the Manor to perform a ritual. Each night, choose someone to bind. Once everyone alive is binded (even mafia), you may perform the ritual at any time, meaning you win. The sort of strategy for this role is to bind people you don't think are gonna die, otherwise you've wasted a night.
Unfortunately, not all of these roles will be able to make the cut. This is another reason for feedback on roles-- so I know which ones i should keep or scrap.
Some general information: mafia wins by making up 1/2 of town as usual, voting will be based on whoever gets most votes (person 1 has 1 vote, person 2 has 2 votes, person 2 gets voted out), days and nights will last typically 24-48 hours.

Hi! I'm EJO. I am a silly billy who forgets to play Genshin Impact every day totally DOESN'T simp for at least three different ninja girls. Some other facts about me:
I main Milio in League of Legends, and therefore have extreme anxiety whenever my glass cannon Vayne main teammate charges at the enemy while I'm at the spawn zone.
My average accuracy in Marvel Rivals is about 19%.
If anyone says the words "Spider man lord" in my presence I will immediately lock myself in my room.

this looks interesting. question about the jester, when you say he wins when he gets voted out does that mean that the game is over?
I heard life is what passes when you're too busy living.
Yes, if you vote out the jester the game ends and they win. Everyone else loses the game.

Not any specific amount. It's flexible. (Taking a ton of inspiration from Vitus's here, if you haven't noticed)
