Role PMs
You are ___________, General under ______________ of the _____________ clan. You have been given permission to seek… alternative methods of eliminating the leaders of your enemies. How you use this power is up to you.
Ability: Once a day you may submit a list of no more than 3 ALT names to Path-Shaper (1 or 2 names is also acceptable). This is your “contract” list. If one of the killers for hire chooses a name on the list you have submitted, that player will be targeted for assassination. There is no guarantee that they will choose a name you have submitted.
You know that ___________ is a member of your clan because he is your paymaster and relays the assassination list.
For every member of your clan who dies, your contract list reduces by 1. It cannot reduce below 1. (So even if you are the last person left, you can still put out a single contract choice.
Important: Your list is submitted to the assassins at the beginning of night. Therefore you may not change any names once the Day has timed out or a lynch has occurred.
You are ________________, Captain under General _______________ (________________) of the ____________ clan. You know that if something were to happen to your leader, you would be promoted and put in charge.
Ability: Inherit responsibility and any NA abilities if leader dies.
You are _____________, Lieutenant under General ____________ (_________________) of the __________clan. You are the senior field medic in charge of keeping the army as healthy as possible.
Ability: You are a healer. Once a night, choose a target to heal.
You are _______________, Paymaster under General _____________ (__________________). Fiercely loyal, yet lacking the noblest of sensibilities, you are willing to bend the rules of honorable combat a bit.
Ability: Once a night, choose a target for recruitment. If that target is a clan member, your recruit attempt will fail. However, if the alt you target is one of the 3 assassins, they become your General’s personal assassin and will no longer accept contracts from other leaders.
You are the superior assassin known as Tengu. You are said to have goblin blood in your veins, and this blood gives you superior skills and magical powers.
During the Day, Please Choose one clan from whom you wish to receive a kill contract. You may change this anytime during the day, but once it is night you must abide by your last decision. Once it is night, you will receive a short list of names from the leader you chose. You may choose any one of those names to target with a kill. You may also abstain from killing if you wish.
You may only accept a contract once every two nights. If you accept a contract and kill on night one, you may not kill again until night three. You cannot “save up” kills by abstaining several nights in a row– after any contract acceptance, the next night you may not kill again.
Once you have performed a successful kill, the alt you have killed becomes your puppet and will remain alive on the player list on thread. You keep the puppet until you decide to throw that puppet away in favor of another. You may only keep one puppet at a time, and it must always be your most recent kill. (Once you kill again, that previous puppet will officially “die” on thread).
Example. Night one, you kill Sukul Ankadu. Sukul does not die on thread, but instead becomes your puppet. On night three, you decide to take a contract on Anomandaris and successfully kill them. Sukul officially dies on thread, and Anomandaris becomes your puppet.
You will be provided with that alt’s login information. Their Role PM will be deleted of course. This means, you will not discover the identity of the person you killed until you see the public CF on thread. You may post on thread as both your regular alt AND your puppet alt, you may vote with your puppet, but your puppets vote does not actually count. If your puppet is lynched or killed, you do not die. Your death only occurs if your personal alt dies.
You are the superior assassin Hannya. Having trained in the skills of disguise, you decided to take your art one step further and have cut off your own face. Any nose/cheeks/chin or ears you wear now are not your own, as you have mastered the use prosthetics, illusionary spells, powders and paints. You may now take on the identity of anyone you kill.
During the Day, Please Choose one clan from whom you wish to receive a kill contract. You may change this anytime during the day, but once it is night you must abide by your last decision. Once it is night, you will receive a short list of names from the leader you chose. You may choose any of those names to target with a kill. You may also abstain from killing if you wish. . You may only accept a contract once every two nights. If you accept a contract and kill on night one, you may not kill again until night three. You cannot “save up” kills by abstaining several nights in a row– after any contract acceptance, the next night you may not kill again.
You are a faceless man. When you successfully kill someone, you change places with them. However, your previous ALT does not die. Instead, your old alt remains your puppet to use. You may post using both alts and you may vote, but your puppets vote does not actually count. Once you perform another kill, your original alt will officially die on thread, you will jump to your new “body” and the body you were just occupying will become your new puppet.
Example: Your original alt is _________. Night 1 You successfully kill Sukul Ankadu. You become Sukul Ankadu, gaining access to their alt (their role pm will have been deleted). Your original alt, __________, is now your puppet to control.
Night 3, you successfully kill Anomandaris. You now become Anomandaris, gaining access to their alt. Sukul Ankadu becomes your new puppet, and your original alt ____________ officially dies on thread. If your puppet is lynched or killed, you do not die. Your death only occurs if the alt you currently inhabit dies.
You are the superior assassin known as Kage-za. You have mastered not only the art of killing, but the art of blending in and losing yourself in a crowd.
During the Day, Please Choose one clan from whom you wish to receive a kill contract. You may change this anytime during the day, but once it is night you must abide by your last decision. Once it is night, you will receive a short list of names from the leader you chose. You may choose any of those names to target with a kill. You may also abstain from killing if you wish. . You may only accept a contract once every two nights. If you accept a contract and kill on night one, you may not kill again until night three. You cannot “save up” kills by abstaining several nights in a row– after any contract acceptance, the next night you may not kill again.
When you successfully kill a target, you may keep that alt as a shadow (simulacrum) of yourself. Before the beginning of the next day, please choose which alt you wish to be the “real” you.
Example: You are _____________. On night 1 you successfully kill Sukul Ankadu. You now control both alts and will be given Sukul’s login information (Role PM will have been deleted). Before Day 2 begins, choose which alt you will inhabit personally. The alt you do NOT choose will be your shadow puppet to use as well. Both your real alt and your shadow alt may vote, but your puppets vote will not actually count. On night 3, repeat the procedure if you perform a successful kill. You may only keep 1 shadow simulacrum at a time, so after your second kill when you choose your “real” self and your “shadow”, the alt you do not choose will officially die on thread. If your puppet is lynched or killed, you do not die. Your death only occurs if the alt you chose to currently inhabit dies.
You are Kunitomo an agent sent by the reigning Ashikaga shogun. Or is it the deposed Ashikaga shogun? Or perhaps the soon-to-be deposed Ashikaga Shogun? It depends on who you ask.
You are independent of the factions and assassins, and as such, have your own victory conditions. It is your desire to keep the Ashikaga in power, and you are out West to try and convince clans to support your master.
Night action - Every night, submit one name of a player (alt) who you wish to turn into an Ashikaga Sympathizer. You will be informed of "success" "partial success" or "failure". Only Captains and Generals can be swayed, but a General may ONLY be swayed if you have first recruited his Captain.
If you succeed in winning a General to your cause, you will be counted as a winner in this game (and can brag about how awesome you are to win all by yourself). So your mission essentially is to turn a captain into a sympathizer - find his general, and do the same with him.
If at any point your try to recruit an assassin, you will fail. However, you will gain one bulletproof against any kill attempts made by that assassin.
I'm going to level with you - this is going to be a relatively difficult thing to pull off. If you do it, it will reap serious rewards for the Ashikaga in the coming games AND you will be granted a fun role in the next game, rather than given one at random like everyone else.

Only someone with this much power could make this many frittatas without breaking any eggs.
