[Game] Witch Trials (Round 1)

[Plantae]

Mod Approved by Zak

Welcome to the zenith of the first game of Witch Trials, a new variant of Axis Mundi and its predecessor, the Werewolf Game.

Any questions on clarification are welcomed and should be directed to me by private message. You may find the rules here.

General
1. Do not excessively spam in this topic.
2. Dead players may post sparsely, but may not give hints that could affect gameplay in any form.
3. Do not post private messages in the thread.
4. Do not edit your posts.
5. Post all votes in bold or they will not be counted.

Players are encouraged to state their suspicions and make accusations in the thread, as well as to utilize the new implement “alliance.” They are also encouraged to take vengeance for actions against their kind.

Please read the rules if you have not for any reason, and all others would do well to re-read them. Note that Daemons may make alliances. This part of the rules has been changed.

A lonely cross stood in the center of the square, Latin in origin for its twin beams, one standing tall and the width of it shorter. A charred pile of ropes lay at its foot, and a man examined them with scrutiny.

The crowd has burned a witch yesterday, the priest was merely assuring himself that the demon that had killed a child last night was not indeed her.

“Blasphemy…” He muttered it quietly as he walked on, for he could sense the tingle of magic mingling in the air, and believed firmly it was a tool only the divine deserved.

So when he passed a fortune teller in the street, he gave her no notice- he was but a mere cleric, and he had no mortal followers. There was a town to clean, be it by sanctity or murder- zeal would be a necessity in the following days.

Demons seldom traveled alone, and behind them witches too, and then all the others- the spirit of nature and tricksters, for evil came in hordes.

He had fears all his life that the dead would rise from their graves, and now it was that day, and the nadir of the church’s dominion.

If change was coming, the priest concluded that it would brought by law, and so he reentered the town hall- and the community trial proceeding within it.

A child had died in the night, clawed and marred, so surely someone was responsible.

The current date/time is: WITCH WIN.

[Plantae]

Any of you who received a message with the subject line "Axis Mundi (Mixed Roles)" have had your roles changed due to an accidental mix-up. The role in this message is your real role. Please disregard your first role. I apologize again for this.

All the roles have now been assigned.

[Greyfox]

Another interesting round of Axis Mundi; let's hope this goes well for the good guys, for a change. As of yet, my vote remains neutral.

-drew

[Magmar]

I guess I'll be neutral until I figure this game out more. I'm.. getting it... I think.

[The Blue Avenger]

Yeah, I'm going to stay neutral for now.

[Green Lanturn]

Considering that I accidentally killed the oracle last game, I think ill take a safe approach. Besides, the humans proved they could still win. I think ill let them keep the extra member.

Neutrality

[Plantae]

It has been brought to my attention several issues about clarity. As a result, the following sections have been edited: Marked/Ascendant Role, Alliance, Victory.

The changes are stated below.

Marked/Ascendant - An Ascendant receives a 50% chance to gain an ability other than their initial ability at each Moonshine following the first.

Alliance - An alliance between roles that cannot coexist at end game can still exist as long as more roles exist besides those of these allies.

Victory - The following groups may not coexist when the game ends. The converse of these statements is equally true.

Mortal/Theurge/Reader – Witches/Daemons/Speaker/Necromancer/Green Man

Witches/Green Man – Daemons/Necromancer

Necromancer – Speaker

Any other group may end the game, but must first be allied with one another if they are not inherently allied with one another (such as the Witches and the Speaker, or the Daemons and Necromancer, or the Green Man and the Marked).

[Ace64]

Neutral for now. You know, after this round is over, it'll be almost a disappointment to go back to standard rules...

[Dark-San]

[b][size=3] Neutral. I have not grasp the rules totally yet.

[Plantae]

This is not a one-round variant. We will be using the Witch Trials variant for several rounds, and likely interchangably with Axis Mundi, or possibly as its replacement.

[Weasel Overlord]

[color=thistle]I am also staying neutral. Weasel has found out the badness of bandwagons, and while staying neutral is, in fact, following a wagon, at least tis a safe one! ^^

[Emotional Faun Chiko-sai]

*not exactly 'all here'* Until further notice, I remain
Neutral

[Mega Horny]

I agree, its much to early to jump the gun and get one of the special roles killed.

NEUTRAL

[Zcade0]

Everyone kills me when I jump the gun so I'm gona stay nuteral, I also need to study the rules a bit more..... Piece out. *holds up a piece of pizza, then throws it out the door*

[Vulpix.ck87]

Ditto-ing the neutral, too laidback to lynch when im listening to Mojo radio.. heh.

[Plantae]

Due to neutrality all around, the first Sunshine results in the following.

Dead

Moonshine I has now begun.

[Magmar]

Expert private message forger... you douche! haha.

[Zcade0]

Moonshine... lol. Dukes of Hazardness.....

[Zcade0]

Btw, (curse not being able to modifi the posts, srry for dual post) how does one go about swearing aliences when they don't know who anyone is?

[Plantae]

A person swears an alliance by sending in a request to ally to the host. The intention is that you converse with the other players of the game.

An equally tragic and victorious Moonshine, it seems.

Dead
Vulpix.ck87 - Witch

A member of the coven already burned, whom will the trials expose this Sunshine?

[The Blue Avenger]

Wow.

And now I have no clue about who to vote for. I'll hold off on voting for now.

[Green Lanturn]

"Ding dong the itch is dead, which old witch, the wicked witch! Ding dont the wicked witch is dead...."


Why doesnt anyone want to vote, afraid to throw out at least some suspicion?

Considering these we'll get nowhere if everyone is afraid to vote(once again, is probably gonna die early for this, yuck, remember what happened last time, ew.), might as well start something from nothing.

My vote is for... um....

Dark-san

No real reason other than we need to start voting soon.

This vote'll probably change depending on what happens later.

~GL

[Mega Horny]

Poor vulpix never plays very long.

No one has posted much, therefore everyones probably scared to make a decision, in fear of being voted for, therefore, i will wait until i see the opinions of others. until then my vote is also for Dark-San.

[Emotional Faun Chiko-sai]

To throw a curveball into this Sunshine, I'm gonna vote for messr.

Yero Thropp

for the not-very-good reason that he has been quiet for the first Sunshine. (A few others were quiet as well... but...)

[Magmar]

I have to agree with Yi-Wen here. After last round of Axis Mundi, having inactive players sucks... and while I have hardly a clue who ANYONE is -_-; I'm going to vote for Yero Thropp, just to get rid of him. If he replies, I'll change it to someone else.

[Heald]

Bandwagons are a good way to evade Doom votes. I'll vote for Yero Throop too.

[Dark-San]

[b][size=3] No point guessing anywayz~ Anyway I don't appreciate people voting me off first before any hard evidence is made.

I would agree with Heald in such cases. So hence, my vote goes to Yero.

[Mega Horny]

well, Dark San has a point, and Heald is using good logic so I will also change my vote to Yero Thropp.

[Green Lanturn]

Well, at least I got people to start voting.

I shall change my vote to

Yero Thropp.


Sorry if you took it the wrong way Dark-san, it REALLY was random, just to get people to vote.

~GL

[Ace64]

Ugh.

Yero Thropp, until we at least hear something from him. Everyone's playing the silent game.

[Mega Horny]

and here comes his excuse of how he was doing errands or something. meh. Lets hear your story YT.

[The Blue Avenger]

Uh, Yero Thropp, in absence of anything else.

[Zcade0]

[b]Yero T./b] avoiding doom. Lol, boys aren't called witches, wat r we gona call em, Warlocks? Ooooo, better idea, no guys can be witches!! yay! W00t!!

[Magmar]

In wicca, we call our males "witches" as well.

[Greyfox]

Clichéd bandwagon approach. My vote goes to Yero Thropp.

-drew

[Plantae]

Mystic, but not the type you were looking for.

Dead
Yero Thropp - Reader

And the darkness falls.

[Ace64]

Well, after re-checking the rules to remind myself of what the Reader actually does, I can now say...damn. That did not go well. Still, at least now there are plenty of people to find some imagined guilt with.

[Magmar]

Gah! Green Lanturn, it was my turn to kill the Oracle, lol... ohhhh the axis mundi memories.

Although, Yero has had a history of being abysmally inactive. It's not as bad as a loss as it appears! ^_^;;

[Zcade0]

don't people have to go through the host to make an allegiance?

[Plantae]

Yes, they do.
