With the concession of the last member of the Mafia, the Town has won!
The already-deceased:
Greyparrot (Town Treestump)
Casey (Town Nightmarish God)
WyIted (Town Miller + Neighborizer)
Earth (Town Odd Night Doctor)
Casey's full role is flipped:
You are The Downward Spiral! https://open.spotify.com/album/7a7arAXDE0BiaMgHLhdjGF?si=gS9WxzqhTGqsd6BAuM7ypQ
This 1994 album, released by the Nine Inch Nails, reflects, well, a downward spiral. The mentality of the "main character" of the album gets worse and worse throughout, eventually ending in his suicide. He suffers from increasingly harmful delusions. As a result, you are the Town Nightmarish God.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities:
Delusions (Compulsive, 6-shot): You must choose one of the following actions and a target each Night. Each action may only be used once, and you will be informed what each action did afterward.
I am the hate you try to hide (1-shot): For the Day after you use this ability, your target becomes Hated. It takes one less vote than majority to eliminate them. Your target is notified of this status.
I am the silencing machine (1-shot): For the Day after you use this ability, your target may only post 10 times. After their 10th post, the player can only post to change/place votes.
I am the lover in your bed (1-shot): Your target is roleblocked.
I give you all you need to know (1-shot): If your target dies during the Night this is used, their flip will be hidden the next Day. It will be revealed the Day after that.
I am the truth from which you run (1-shot): If your target does not visit anyone during the Night this is used, they will receive a list of two names, at least one of which is guaranteed to be Mafia-aligned.
I am denial, guilt, and fear (1-shot): Your target will not receive any feedback on this Night, except for feedback notifying them of a restriction/requirement for the next Day.
Eliminated Day 3:
Who needs please when we've got guns?
Who needs peace when we've gone above
But beyond where we should have gone?
Lunatic
You are Sleeping Through The Static! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_krdoBB_U9y3KoTSn_yVT8bsKfB2udhDnM
This 2008 album by Jack Johnson touches on some heavy themes, like climate change and war. It performed very well, setting several records, such as the most iTunes downloads in a single day. One of the major topics in the album is how people will often simply live in willful ignorance of important topics- or "Sleeping Through The Static." Because of the callout of this ignorance, you are the Mafia Feedback Rewriter.
Your goal is to reach parity with Town-aligned players and eliminate any other players who wish to see the Mafia lose.
You have the following abilities. You may use one of your abilities in addition to one Factional ability per Night:
Or You Can Sleep Through The Static (2-shot): Target a player. You will see the feedback they would have received tonight, and may rewrite it however you wish. You cannot remove or alter feedback that would notify your target of a restriction or requirement for their posting the following Day phase.
Conceded:
He was like a flowing wind
He was like a flying kite
Pie
You are 3 Idiots! https://open.spotify.com/album/7shstgp8BAiSrFryJu4K8I
This 2009 Indian dramedy performed extremely well, as the highest-grossing Indian film at the time. But that's the film, what about its soundtrack? The music goes through quite a variety, from the peppy "Aal Izz Well" to the more somber "Behti Hawa Sa Tha Woh." Because of these contrasting songs throughout the soundtrack, you are the Mafia JOAT.
Your goal is to reach parity with Town-aligned players and eliminate any other players who wish to see the Mafia lose.
You have the following abilities. You may use one of your abilities in addition to one Factional ability per Night:
Aal Izz Well (1-shot): If you use this ability, any abilities that target you tonight will fail, giving no feedback.
He Always Made His Own Paths (1-shot): Choose two targets. If the first target tried to visit someone tonight, they will instead visit your second target.
As My Heart Jives Along (3-shot): Target a player. During the next Day, they will be forced to include a snippet (at least eight consecutive words) from a song in their album in one of their posts. If the target's album is not in English, an English translation may be used to satisfy this.
Won:
I'm playful with it, yeah, basically
Too great to mimic, you hate, you're bitter
Mharman
You are Clouds! https://open.spotify.com/album/7eQGtkzCgrIWDOe76E9F8t
This mixtape was released by NF in 2021. Several of the songs throughout are about NF's personal journey in the rap world, along with a narrative called "STORY." Because of the introspection involved in this album, you are the Town Insomniac.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities:
Stick To My Guns, I Don't Even Flinch (Passive): If you are targeted during the Night, you will know who targeted you. You will not be told what they did.
Won:
I am the storm, I am the storm
I am the storm so wait
Whiteflame
You are Beneath the Skin! https://open.spotify.com/album/2mD97VgxTRfwB8F5tvkwrL
This 2015 album was the second album released by Of Monsters and Men. One member of the band talked about how, as their second album together, this one was improved by the band getting to know each other better and being able to get more personal with each other. Because of being able to get "beneath the skin" in such a way, you are the Town Investigative JOAT.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities. You may use one ability per Night:
I See It All So Clear (1-shot): Target a player. You will see the exact text of one ability they use tonight. If they used multiple, you will see the least incriminating one.
I Can See Through You (1-shot): Target a player. You will learn their alignment: Town, Mafia, or Other.
I'll Be The Hunter (1-shot): Target a player. You will be told who, if anyone, they visit tonight.
Won:
People held up the legends of bounty
Reaping the peace that they sowed

You are PARALLAX! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQzUaZGDJ80&list=PLCGBAij5Y0sRV_X4L2ipSeuQBIS758s2Y
This 2021 album was TheFatRat's first. This album has a lot- a love story, a war, giant mechs... In any case, the climax of the story arrives when the main character finally decides to stop running from a conflict and stand her ground. As a result, you are the Town Non-Consecutive Strengthener.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities:
We Won't Give In (Non-Consecutive, Unlimited use): Target a player during the Night. They cannot be redirected or roleblocked that Night. This ability cannot be used on the same player two Nights in a row.

Eliminated Day 2:
So just leave me alone, girl (Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Leave me alone
WyIted
This 1987 album by Michael Jackson was anything but bad. It sold over 2 million copies in its first week and reached number one on the charts in many countries. The songs themselves vary slightly, touching on themes of romance... but also paranoia and worry. As a result, you are the Town Miller + Neighborizer.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities:
Keep You By My Side (1-shot): Target a player during the Night. Starting at the beginning of the next Day, and lasting until one of you dies, you will have a private chat with that player which is open on all phases.
Because I'm Bad, I'm Bad (Passive): If you are targeted by an alignment investigation, you will appear as Mafia-aligned.
Killed Night 2:
And screaming
Am I too lost
To be saved?
Am I too lost?

This was the debut studio album by Evanescence, released in 2003. With over 17 million units sold, it's one of the most successful albums of the 21st century (by that metric, anyway). Amy Lee, one of the members of Evanescence, explained that the point of it was that everyone goes through bad times, so nobody is alone in that. As such, you are the Town Odd Night Doctor.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities:
I Know I Can Stop The Pain (Unlimited use, Odd Nights only): Target a player on an Odd Night. If they are attacked, you will prevent their death. Neither you nor your target will receive feedback if you prevent their death.

I have no witty quip for you this Day. Good luck. You'll need it.

Eliminated Day 1:

Greyparrot
You are Minute by Minute! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyyQ46HvRjk&list=PLbouzmFCyUKZe7y82Q5Qze1s0agjHfdwA
This was the eighth studio album released by the Doobie Brothers, coming out in 1978. The album received massive recognition and contained the band's most popular song, "What a Fool Believes." Less known, however, is the titular song of the album, which describes holding onto something that maybe shouldn't be held onto. Because of this, you are the Town Treestump.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities:
I'll Keep Holding On (Passive): If you are killed during the Night, you will not fully die until the end of the following Day. You will be unable to vote or use any Day actions, but you will be allowed to post as much as you want. You can be voted as the Day elimination in this state. Your death will not be revealed, nor will your role be flipped, until the Day ends.
Killed Night 1:
A lifetime of fucking things up fixed

Good evening. Before we begin, here are some notifications about what you might need to expect this game.
- There are mechanics in this game that may cause Night feedback to be incorrect or missing.
- There may be any or all of the following mechanics present: Third Party/Neutral alignments, abilities that hide/alter the flips of the dead, and abilities that punish character or role claiming.
- The term "lylo state" may be used in some ability text. A "lylo state" refers to a gamestate in which the number of Town players alive is equal to the number of Mafia players alive plus one. If the game reaches a lylo state, it will not be publicly announced.
- Unless an ability explicitly states otherwise, it may not self-target.
- There may be roles present in the game with names that do not match what they typically are. These might have been changed for flavor or because I'm simply used to a different name.
- There is no theme split. Alignments were determined independently of character.
- As usual, using AI to write your posts is not allowed.
- To prevent angleshooting via role dm formatting, the following is a sample role dm:
"You are The Writing On The Stall! https://open.spotify.com/album/5UuIO3fQNgl7FUPNJzAily
This musical by Caitlin Cook has an unusual topic: Graffiti on public bathroom stalls. From the silly to the horny to the genuinely profound, the musical focuses on these communications we hear from people we're very likely to never know or speak to for our entire lives. Because of this, you are the **Town Anonymous Messenger**.
Your goal is to eliminate all Mafia-aligned players and any other players who wish to see the Town lose.
You have the following abilities:
On The Wall (Unlimited Use): Target a player during the Night and write a message, with a maximum of 200 characters. The target will receive the message at the end of the Night, but they will not be told who it came from."

Music. A form of art which is thousands of years old, appealing to the ear rather than the eye. Something that a vast quantity of people are exposed to on a daily basis.
My good friend Coquelicot and I are looking for something fresh and new. And so, to that end, we have this Mafia game.
This is a Semi-Upick game of Mafia. With your signup, you must message me one album of your choice and a way for me to access it. (Ideally Youtube or Spotify.) I won't be too stringent on the definition of album- but use your common sense on what falls under that definition, please. You will receive a role based on your album- it might be related to the history, the meaning, the literal words, or other aspects of the album. No players will be Vanilla.Additionally- and I will reiterate this in the rules of the game thread- there may be mechanics involved which punish character or role claiming. Choose your album and your words carefully.
I will accept anywhere from 9 up to 15 players. This sign-up period will last for a while, because I intend to listen fully to all submitted albums before distributing roles.
