• WyIted - Lynched DP4 - You are Rear Window!

• Owen_T - Lynched DP2 - Baby Face - Manipulative JOAT (1x Redirector, 1x Deflector, 1x Bus Driver)
  
• ILikePie5 - Died NP1 - Seven Samurai - Strengthener
  
• Moozer325 - Lynched DP3 - You are It’s A Wonderful Life! This film is considered a Christmas classic these days, but received mixed reviews upon release and did very poorly at the box office, causing it to be overlooked and largely forgotten until it's copyright, having not been renewed, expired, at which point it could be broadcast without companies needing to pay for any licensing fees, and the film surged in popularity. In the movie, God assigns an angel named Clarence, who has yet to gain his wings, to save George Bailey, a suicidal man. Now, you can give players their wings. You are the 2x Daytime Doctor Inventor. Two days per game, you may choose any player to turn into a Doctor on the following night. That night and that night only, they will be able to target any other player to save them from lethal night actions. You win with the Town.
  
• Lunatic - Died NP2 - You are Rashomon! This 1950 Japanese film by director Akira Kurosawa was the first film from a non-Western nation to really catch the attention of Western film critics and opened up the doors for cinema in other parts of the world. Rashomon popularized the trope of a story told by several different participants, each giving a completely different and contradictory tale. In the film, a crime has occurred, but the only things all the witnesses agree on are that a samurai was killed and his wife was raped by a bandit, but each tells the story of how it all happened completely differently, with the implication being that they all told lies based on their roles within Japanese society at the time. Because of this search for truth that provides no clear answers as to exactly who is guilty of what, you are the Odd-Night Neapolitan Cop. On odd-numbered nights, you may investigate any other player to learn (assuming no interference with your actions) if they are Vanilla Town or not. You win with the Town.
  

• Owen_T - Lynched DP2 - You are Baby Face! This Barbara Stanwyck film depicts a young woman named Lily Powers who seduces many men and uses sex to advance her career and personal status. At the time it was released, it was highly controversial and garnered negative reactions in the press. These days, film historians appreciate it for its boundary-pushing nature and its reflection of depression-era anxieties. Because of Powers’s use of sex to manipulate men, you are the Manipulative JOAT - 1x Redirector, 1x Deflector, 1x Bus Driver. You may use one ability per night, but may not use any ability more than once. You win with the Mafia. 
  
• ILikePie5 - Died NP1 - You are Seven Samurai! This Akira Kurosawa film released in 1954 is still considered one of the greatest samurai films of all time, sometimes even one of the greatest films in general. Set during the Sengoku Jidai or ‘Warring States’ period of Japanese history, this film is centered around a small village which must hire samurai to protect it from bandits. Unlike many other samurai movies which depict the samurai as glorious heroes who have to save idiotic villagers, Seven Samurai takes a more nuanced view, showing the samurai as not all being honorable, while the villagers were still competent on their own, they simply needed help to defend themselves. Because the samurai came to aid the village and protect it from being ransacked, you are the Strengthener. Once per night, you may target any player to prevent their night actions (if they take any) from being interfered with, such as by a Roleblocker, Redirector, etc. You win with the Town.

• None
  

"One of the best I've ever seen, no doubt!"

"Meh, I had it all figured out by DP2. The town just threw the whole game."

• JoeBob - You are the Election of 1788-89! You were the first ever US presidential election, as well as the only one to span two years without a contingent election in the house. The enormously popular George Washington won all 69 electoral votes that were cast. This election, as well as Washington himself, would set important precedents for how elections and the nation in general would function moving forward. You are the Godfather! You appear to be Innocent to investigative roles, but you win with the Mafia.
  
• Barney - You are the Election of 1824! The Federalist party had fallen out of favor with the American people, leaving the Democratic-Republican party as the only major political party in America. However, there were divisions and factions within, and four different candidates from the party ran for president. None received a majority of the electoral vote, causing the election to be decided by the House of Representatives. You are the Mafia JOAT and have the powers of the three men who advanced to the contingent election in the House.
  
• John Quincy Adams - 1x Night Vote Thief - Andrew Jackson won the popular vote and had the most electoral votes, leading many to believe he would win the presidency, but Adams surprised the nation by winning the most state delegations, effectively stealing the election from Jackson (at least in his eyes). One night per game, you may target any player to steal their vote. You will have two votes at your disposal the following day, and your target will be unable to vote.
  
• Andrew Jackson - 1x Framer - Andrew Jackson accused John Quincy Adams of striking a 'corrupt bargain' with Henry Clay to win the election. In reality, there isn't much evidence of this and Adams probably won through sincere voting, but regardless, Jackson was able to rally people in his favor, and Adams would lose his reelection bid to Jackson in 1828. One night per game, you may target any player to make them appear Guilty to investigative roles.
  
• William H. Crawford - 1x Strongman - William Harris Crawford was the minister to France during the war of 1812 and afterwards was appointed Secretary of War by James Madison. One night per game, you may target any player to perform a Strongman kill -- a kill which cannot be prevented by any protective role.
  

• Earth - You are the Election of 1920! The major candidates were Republican Warren G. Harding and Democrat James M. Cox, but the Socialist party candidate Eugene Debs also decided to make a run for president, despite being in prison at the time. Although incarcerated, Debs won close to a million votes, over 3% of the popular vote. It would be his last run for president. You are the Jailkeeper. Once per night, you may choose to jail any other player, protecting them from harm but also preventing them from using any active abilities. You win with the Town.
  
• AustinL0926 - You are the Election of 1876! Republican Rutherford B. Hayes and his incredible facial hair ran against Democrat Samuel J. Tilden. The results were extremely contentious. Tilden won against Hayes in the popular vote, but there were widespread allegations of voter fraud, voter intimidation, and disenfranchisement of black Republicans. To solve the issue of who the winner ought to be, Congress created the Electoral Commission, a body of fifteen people tasked with investigating the election and settling the 20 disputed electoral votes. You have the investigative authority of the Electoral Commission. You are the 2x Cop. Two nights per game, you may target any other player to learn whether they are Innocent (win with the Town) or Guilty. You win with the Town.
  
• WyIted - You are the Election of 1928! Republican Herbert Hoover defeated Democrat Al Smith. Smith was Catholic, and at a time of high anti-Catholic prejudice in the US, his faith hurt his campaign greatly, more so than any of his policy positions. However, Hoover himself would come to be hated after the Great Depression started during his term, and while he didn't respond to it very well, the Depression itself wasn't really Hoover's fault. Because both major candidates were judged somewhat unfairly, you are the Miller. You appear to be Guilty to investigative roles, but you win with the Town.
  
• ILikePie5 - You are the Election of 2020! 2020 was a very dramatic and tense year for a national political battle, but former vice president Joe Biden managed to defeat the incumbent president Donald Trump, making him the first incumbent president to lose a reelection bid since George H. W. Bush in the election of 1992. You are the Town JOAT and have the following abilities:
  
• Quarantine (1x Magistrate) - 2020 was the year the Covid-19 disease became an international pandemic, leading to wide-scale lockdowns. The response of the US to the pandemic was a major point of contention in the election. One night per game, you may target any other player to quarantine them, making them unable to receive or cast any votes the following day.
  
• Steal the Election (1x Double Vote) - Joe Biden was accused by Donald Trump of using massive amounts of voter fraud. Eventually, widespread belief among Republicans that the election was stolen from Trump lead to an insurrection attempt at the Capitol with the aim of preventing Biden from being certified as the winner. One day per game, you may cast two votes at once on any player.
  
• Blue Lives Matter (Deputy/Judge) - During 2020, the Black Lives Matter movement led widescale protests in the aftermath of the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin. Most BLM protesters were peaceful, but some were not and sparked violent riots, leading to backlash against the movement. These protests and riots, and the responses to them, were a huge issue throughout the campaign season. If the Cop dies in the night, you will gain a 1x Cop ability. If the Cop is lynched, then the following night, you will have the ability to target and kill any one player who voted for them.
  
• Moozer325 - You are the Election of 1972! Incumbent president Richard Nixon soundly defeated Democratic challenger George McGovern. One of the issues Nixon ran on, among others, was desegregation busing, the policy of using the school bus system to achieve racial desegregation in schools by sending student to schools in districts other than their own. Nixon was opposed to the policy, labeling it 'forced busing.' It was a part of the Southern Strategy, an attempt by Republicans to appeal to white southern voters who were opposed to civil rights legislation and desegregation. You are the 1x Self-Bus Driver. One night per game, you may 'swap' yourself with any other player, causing all night actions targeted at you to be redirected to your target and vice-versa. Use this ability wisely! You win with the Town.
  
• CatholicApologetics - You are the Election of 2000! Incumbent Democratic vice president Al Gore ran against Republican George W. Bush, son of former president George H. W. Bush. Gore won the popular vote, but the electoral vote would all come down to Florida, where Bush led by an insanely slim margin, only a few hundred votes. Controversy over the recount led to the Supreme Court Decision Bush v. Gore, which left Bush the winner of both Florida and the election as a whole. Because it all came down to the very last vote, at least in Florida, you are the Hammerer! You may only cast a vote if it is the deciding (hammering) vote. If you try to cast a vote which does not immediately end the day, the day will automatically end with your lynch instead. You win with the Town.
  
• whiteflame - You are the Election of 1992! Democratic challenger Bill Clinton won against the incumbent Republican president George H.W. Bush. Independent Ross Perot also made a strong showing, gaining a lot of support and even getting to participate in all three presidential debates alongside Bush and Clinton. However, he severely damaged his campaign and his reputation when he dropped out of the race in July before resuming it several weeks later. Because of Perot's dropped, then resumed campaign, you are the Odd-Night Commuter. On odd-numbered nights, you may choose to commute away from town, making you unable to be targeted by any night actions. You win with the Town.

• I will not answer questions in-thread, except to give a time check or a vote count. Please direct all other questions to me over DM.
  
• I will not answer questions about roles other than your own or about hypothetical roles, unless the answer would directly impact how your own role would work. Questions about 'flipped' roles are generally okay.

• Whiteflame - You are Kazuma Asogi! You’re a star student at Yumei University and an all-around cool dude, though you’re a bit on the edgy side. You always carry around a katana called Karuma. You are the Ninja. If you carry out the factional Night Kill, it will be invisible to any investigative roles. You win with the Mafia.
  
• Moozer [Replaced by Earth before the start of the game] - You are Ryunosuke Naruhodo! You traveled to London, the capital of the British Empire, where you practiced law in the legendary Old Bailey courthouse and became the great ace attorney!

• Janitor - If the player you target dies during the night you target them, only the mafia will learn their character and role.
  

• Mharman - You are Phoenix Wright! You are the famous bluffing defense attorney who always finds a way to win, even when all seems hopeless.

That player cannot be killed that NP. You may only use this ability twice in total. You win with the Town.
  
• Savant - You are Athena Cykes! You were born with super sensitive hearing that allows you to hear the discord in people’s hearts.

• Austin - You are Maya Fey! The younger sister of Phoenix Wright’s mentor, Mia, you become Wright’s close companion.
