Smeagol – Untargetable Townie

How did we get here? How did we get here? How did we get here? Why won't he leave? We can feel him, feel him gnawing at our mind. Sticking his dirty, filthy, little hands inside our... No! Nononono. Not our, not our, not our... Not our! Mine! Not his, not our... Mine! Sticking his dirty, filthy, little hands inside MY brain.

Why won't he leave us? We don't want him, don't need him. He needs to leave. We don't want to be him. Yes, we are good now. But at night, he grows more powerful at night. It's like we lose control, we don't exist. We don't want him. The sun, it burns us. It burns, it burns, burns. But it burns him worse, it does.

Make him leave. Leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave

Ability: At night you retreat inside yourself, unable to perform any actions, but also unable to be targeted.

Win condition: You win when all threats to the town (and your sanity) are gone.

Lisa Williams – Town Medium

Of course you know that the medium profession is filled with fakes, frauds, liars, and cheaters. You're not gullible. That doesn't take from the fact that you are the real deal. You can communicate with the dead, with gods, with moderators, with spirits. And for this you get locked up in this asylum. The closedmindedness of people. They refuse to accept that there is just the slightest chance of there being more to life than what they can prove through their precious science and statistics. So now you're here.

Might as well make the best out of it. Hopefully some of your gifts will come in handy.

Abilities:
-During day you can summon the spirit of a dead player. That player will be allowed to make a single post (including a vote) from beyond the grave. You may only use this ability once.

Win condition: Victory will be yours when the town is rid of baddies.

Truman Burbank – Town Reality Star

30 years. 30 years for which you had unknowingly been the star of your very own reality show. And then it ended. Just like that. Of course, everyone wanted a piece of you. Interviews, talk-shows, guest appearances in all kinds of movies, invitations to fancy charity dinners, girls chasing after you in the streets. Overnight you had to come to terms with being one of the most famous people on earth, despite always having led a sheltered life. Surprisingly, it wasn't that hard.

Then, less than a year later, you're old news. Forgotten. That game show gig you got was canceled, due to poor ratings.Your model girlfriend left you. Your high society friends stopped calling. Of course there had to come a reaction at some point.

And now you're here. Now it's time for rest.

Abilities: You have none.

Win condition: You have no... err, you win when there are no more threats to the town.

Andy Kaufman – Town Jester

Fame can be a horrible thing. There's no privacy, no rest, no chance to be only yourself. So, what is a man to do? Why, fake one's own death to leave the public spotlight, of course! It is, after all, the only reasonable thing to do.

After having spent a number of years at this facility, it seems the time has finally come. You are, if not forgotten, forgotten enough that you should be able to live a rather normal life now. Now you just need to get out of here, alive. An old prank should be able to give you a leg up.

Ability: Fake death. The first time you are lynched, you will not die. Your role information will be revealed as normal («SirPrimalform has been lynched. He was Andy Kaufman – Town Jester»), then you suddenly pop back to life.

Win conditions:
-All enemies to the town needs to die.
-You need to be lynched at least once over the course of the game.

Francois Bertrand – Necrophiliac Townie

The corpses long for you, as you long for them. They understand you, they listen to you, they talk to you. A velvet soft, almost humming whisper of a voice that only you can hear. It's the most beautiful sound. Except for when night falls. Their yearning grows stronger, as do their voices. They call out to you. They want you. And who are you to resist them?

«I'll bring you back to life this night,
it's meant for the flesh at least.
Tonight I'll join you in your sleep.»

Abilities:
-Each night, if there is at least one death, you will indulge in your particular paraphilia. The target of your affection will be left in such a sorry state that it will be impossible to determine anything other than their alignment. (Should there be more than one death, the moderator will determine your target at random) This is a mandatory ability, and you may not choose not to use it.
-The first time someone attempts to kill you during night, that attempt will fail.

Win condition: You win when there are no mafia, serial killers, cultists, or werewolves left in the game.

Harold Shipman – Miller Doctor

«Angel of Death». Pah! The motivation for any doctor should be to mend the wounded, cure the sick, and ease suffering. And what do we do with modern medicine? We use it to prolong suffering, not ease it. Old, sick people – we keep them alive for years, we force them to live with agonizing pains, a completely and utterly undignified, inhumane form of life. We don't even treat our animals like that. And for what? It's all because we've become so removed from the concept of death as a natural part of life, become so scared of death, that we think it is somehow more humane to let people suffer needlessly.

You have not killed anyone. You have helped them. You have let people face death, relaxed and free of pain. It's not like you've ever ended a life for fun, or because you get some twisted satisfaction out of it. You're a doctor, your mission is to help people. Mend the wounded, cure the sick. And for those who can't be mended or cured, give them a humane, dignified end, free of pain.

Abilities:
¤Each night you may protect another player. That player will be safe from the first attempt to kill them that night.
¤Your record means you're not exactly the most trusted or well respected person around. You will turn up mafia to any cop investigations.

You win when...
...all anti-town factions are gone, and everyone will be safe from further harm at their hands.

Constable Bastian – Town Cop

You are the happy Constable Bastian
and you are a friendly man
'cause everyone should be friendly if they can
You stroll around and make sure
that everyone feels good
'cause that's something everyone should

You have made a Cardamom-law
for our Cardamom Town
and this Cardamom-law says:
One shall not bother others,
one shall be nice and kind,
otherwise one may do as one pleases.

Ability: Each night you may investigate another player to determine their alignment.

Win condition: You win when the town is free of undesirables.

Tony Hill – Town Cop

It's a rare skill you've got, Tony, but is it worth the cost? You understand crazy, demented people. Their brains feel strangely familiar, almost comforting. You understand how they think, you can see the twisted logic that is woven through their actions. You read their desired, you feel their pain and defects. Let's be honest here, you belong more with them than with the so-called normal people.

Delving into these depraved minds like you do comes unpleasantly easily to you, but it's still very taxing. At times it can feel like you spend more time in other minds than your own, and you can feel it draining your mental health. On more than a few occasions you have questioned your own sanity, but it is something you have to do. Or at least someone has to do it, and there are few others that would be able.

Ability: Each night you may investigate another player to determine whether or not they are part of the mafia.

Win condition: When all the anti-town factions are gone, that is when you win.

The Joker – 1-shot Day Vig

You're a psychotic killer and madman, locked up in this Asylum as it's the only place deemed safe enough to house such an intelligent and sadistic villain as yourself.

No, wait, you're an eccentric, goofy, and somewhat loveable prankster, always looking out for an opportunity to trick a random stranger for your own amusement.

Or actually, you're... No. No, I can't do this. You're the Joker, all else is up to you. Be whichever Joker you wish. Make up your own flavour, and why not a post restriction while you're at it.

You're the joker. You're stark raving mad. Enjoy it.

Abilities:
*During a day phase you may attempt to kill another player. To do this post Daykill [player] in the game thread (remember to bold). You can only use this ability once during the game.
*You may, if you wish, create your own post restriction. This post restriction will not be enforced by the moderator. However, twice during the game you may «forget» to comply with your post restriction, and have the mod dish out a punishment of your choice (within reason, the mod holds the right to veto any punishment deemed excessive or too disruptive to the game).

Terms of victory: You win when there are only townies, and others friendly to the town, are left alive.

Zchinque – Invisible Town Moderator

You've been in this Asylum for so long, and among all these... let's say, colourful individuals that you blend in with the background. Hardly anyone notice your presence, and to be honest, you're fine with that. If no one notices you, they also won't bother you. Peace and quiet.

Abilities (or role rules, or whatever I should call them in your particular case):
-You do not show up on the player list.
-You are not allowed to post in the game thread.
-To post, PM the mod with what you want to post. He will then copy/paste it into the game thread.
-If you wish, you are exempt from posting at all day 1.
-You can't be culted. It wouldn't do for the moderator to join a cult.
-Other than that, your role functions more or less like normal.

Win condition: You win when all enemies to the town are dead and forgotten. Or at least dead.

Anna-Varney Cantodea – Suicidal Townie

Time heals nothing, nothing, nothing. How many times have you been in and out of institutions now? Medication, shock therapy, psychiatrists. And yet the dead birds keep singing. It's tiring.

At least the Shadows are still with you. In a universe of change and continous movement, it's good to have someone, something you can count on.

Abilitiy:
You don't handle pressure well, and votes make thoughts of suicide creep into your mind. You take two votes less to lynch (this can not make the threshold to lynch you lower than 2).

Win condition: You win when all threats to the down are pushing up the daisies.

Gollum – Mafia Sneak

You're the sane one. But it hurts having to share both body and mind with that weakling. He's weak. A coward. And you can't drive him out. But as time passes, you grow stronger, he grows even weaker. As long as he doesn't do something stupid, maybe you'll soon be in complete control.

And the inmate next to you listens. Listens in the dark. Does it know it is you it listens to? No, nonono. But it listens, and you're not one who minds taking advantage of that, are you? It is weak, and it listens. It will have its uses. Oh yes, it will.

Your scumbuddies are JMich and Amok. Scumchat is here. There you are allowed to communicate each night, as well as the first 72 hours of the first game day.
Together you must decide on one player to kill each night, as well as who performs the kill.

Abilities:
-You may PM TwilightBard at any time, using an account I have set up for this purpose (login is [redacted]). This account is not to be used for any other purpose, and you may not change or give the login details to anyone.

Win condition: You win when only mafia are left alive, or this is inevitable.

Nostradamus – Mafia Soothsayer

Yes, yes. You're a fake. I know it, you know it. Any sort of telling the future is impossible. Just as communicating with the dead is impossible. It doesn't matter. As long as you can make other people believe you, it will nudge them in the right direction. The right direction for who? Well, that should be obvious enough.

While your socalled abilities are hoaxes, they're based on being convincing. You are forced to understand people, so that you can find their weak points. But that understanding comes at a cost. You also understand that you can't trust anyone, no matter how friendly they seem to be.

Your scumbuddies are QuadrAlien and Amok. Scumchat is here. There you are allowed to communicate each night, as well as the first 72 hours of the first game day.
Together you must decide on one player to kill each night, as well as who performs the kill.

Ability: Each day you may PM the mod a yes/no question, as well as if the question should be answered with a yes or a no. The mod will then post a scene, where this question, including your fabricated answer is revealed. The question may not name any player by name.

Win condition: You win when only mafia are left alive, or this is inevitable.

Nurse Ratchet – Mafia Nurse

There's not much to say, is there? You administer drugs, take care of the patients. Oh, and you really, really hate them. They're vile sociopaths, depraved murderers, and crazy lunatics. They are stains upon society, each and every one of them. A couple of them might be useful as tools, but they're all as bad as each other. We really should find more permanent solutions to these kinds of problems. Their vanishing from the face of the earth wouldn't bring a tear to a single eye.

But what can you do? You administer drugs, sedate them when needed. Too bad your tools... I mean, your friends don't trust you, because you have some pretty potent uppers in your arsenal as well.

Your scumbuddies are QuadrAlien and JMich. Scumchat is here. There you are allowed to communicate each night, as well as the first 72 hours of the first game day.
Together you must decide on one player to kill each night, as well as who performs the kill.

Abilities:
You have a number of drugs which you can administrate. You have to administrate one dose each day. The effect will take effect at nightfall, and last through the next day. You can not administrate drugs to any of your mafia buddies. PM the mod with which drug you want to which player.
Drugs (or rather, their effects):
Roleblock
1-shot vig ability
One extra vote

Note that you only have 1 dose of each drug, and that it is mandatory for you to administer one dose each day. You expect to receive a delivery of new drugs in a couple of days.

Win conditions: You win when only mafia are left alive, or this is inevitable.
