You are both in the same family portrait because your surname is LaRua.
These are off-thread comms that last as long as Jalan has the Family Portrait item.

I'm hoping you're on Mud Street, it would make our lives a bunch easier. If not, that's fine, but I'm sitting there and investing as much as I can each night so that we can control Mud Street. If we control Mud Street, it will make everything else much easier to take over. That being said, I'm the Channeler, so I don't actually have to attack anyone to kill them. I use summons to make people insane, and then send the summoned creatures after my enemies. If you're on Mud Street, you won't take any sanity damage from my summons cause I will always use an item I have to prevent you from taking any sanity damage from my summons.

Hey there!
No, I'm in the Morman House, also investing. I've already put down 5 of each, so hopefully we control it and I can move on. How great would it be to steal this game within the first few days by controlling everything? Though, I'd rather just play with my abilities.
My hexes will hurt you if we are on the same location, so we may want to avoid that, unless there isn't another option.
Also how does the family portrait work? Can it be destroyed so you can create comms with a different member?

I don't think so. There isn't anything in the item description that says that, it just says that when I create the item, it opens a lover convo with the nearest member of my team. If members are equal distance, then it chooses one at Mods' discretion.
I'm just going to sit on Mud Street, cause my summons and my insanity won't make ME wanted if I kill someone with them. That way I can keep investing on Mud Street, and hopefully make anyone trying to steal it away from us insane before they can actually take it away. I'm not going to do any actual attacking, just summon a bunch, and invest as much as I can into Mud Street. As long as I keep Mud Street on our side, then it'll help you and our other team mate take over the other locations.
Any ideas who team mate # 3 might be? Do you have any find abilities? I have a summon that takes control of random players, so I'm assuming I can use that as a form of find ability. I can either summon it tomorrow, or invest Spades into Mud Street (which, along with a few Clubs and a Diamond would get me to 5 per on Mud Street). I'm thinking I will invest tomorrow, then summon it on Day 3.
Also, I get a sexy summon if I get 2 XP. It's a strong summon to start with, but when it dies, it destroys a location and everyone on it. So I can go sit it on a location that an opposing faction needs but that we don't, and then hopefully get it killed off so we can do some serious hurt!!

I like your plan! We need to get you elected somehow, to get exp.
I don't know any other members, though I'm hoping we are a faction of 4, not 3. As for the finds, I can perform the find cantrip listed in thread, but I believe it is location dependent (target and I at the same spot), so it doesn't seem worth it to throw 6 diamonds when I can invest them. I'll be trying it tomorrow anyway since I should have captured the location already, meaning I've got all my abilities to burn (or invest more to hold it) until move phase comes up and I can go elsewhere.

Tapper told me at the beginning that we're 3 people, not 4. Because of that, I started off with a summon already in play. So we only need to find one other team member to figure out the whole team. After that, it's kill, maim, destroy, and invest! If we manage to find partner # 3, then one of us can open a lover convo with him using the Friendship Cantrip, and we should be more or less unbeatable!
Which Character are you, by the way? I'm the Channeler.
Also, I'm Blend! Who are you?

Dear God, I've just found out that I can use an ability of mine to create a copy of my 2XP summon that dies at the end of the cycle. Considering the location destroying ability of that summon happens when it dies, then I can just keep making copies and have them destroy locations pretty much every day. If I manage to get that summon, we're gonna have the whole map scrambling!

Well I guess we don't have to worry too much about our actions or lynched then, as the chance of randomly hitting our third player is slim. I'd imagine the last player is the Scion too, meaning our actions will not drain his sanity. I know you don't do that anyway, but I do and as long as I know your location and the scion is invulnerable to my sanity drains, I won't be able to hurt anyone on our team.
As for getting you exp, people will be elected today so that tomorrow's judge doesn't get 3 choices. I doubt you want to put yourself out there as a judge and draw other people's attention, so maybe go for mayor somehow? If you are super reasonable, I can vote you early and try to sway people. Or you need to kill people on Mud Street. Either way.
Stalker here, playing as the hexslinger. I believe all my actions require me to be on the same location as my target so I need more info on people's locations to be effective. I could spread abilities across the players and hope one hits to randomly figure out locations or I could invest.
Jalan, on 23 August 2013 - 04:32 PM, said:
My summons do drain sanity, but I have an item that allows me to protect one person from the sanity draining abilities, and I have a summon that prevents me from losing sanity. Right now, my item is targeting you, but given you're a hexer, you're best to just stay away from Mud Street.
I'm going to start the day by saying that if I am elected Mayor, I will make anyone who says they'll lynch Liosan the Judge. I'm not going to push it much beyond that and continuing to push the idea that we absolutely cannot allow another day to go by without a lynch.
My summons can move around the map and do some crazy fun stuff. Do any of your hexes buff abilities/attacks or anything? I wonder if you can target my summoned creatures.
Ultama, on 23 August 2013 - 05:02 PM, said:
Ok, just keep targeting me with it please, since I think the other member can't be affected by you anyway.
I have no ability to buff anything, strictly hex attacks on others or a guard ability. Though again, these are location dependent.
Only problem I see with starting the day with that statement is that today's judge gets 2 lynches, so it may help to be more thorough. Any reason Liosan in particular? I'm not a fan of the Bek Okhan, Fanderay, and whoever else Bek had a friendship with triangle. I imagine they were planning together, since it would help them to work together early on. Also don't like Merrid.
Jalan, on 23 August 2013 - 05:06 PM, said:
I could say that I'll choose someone as judge that will target Merrid and Fanderay for the 2 lynches. It would be easy to make a case against them for their I'll vote for you if you vote for me thing. They're clearly trying to give each other experience or something.
Ultama, on 23 August 2013 - 05:17 PM, said:
Yeah, hard to say if they knew each other or were just randomly going for the vote each other thing. Good thing we have 24 hours to decide the judge stuff, cause I'll be watching the thread before making any moves. Exception being if someone that isn't you begins to gain traction. Play it however you want, of course, but we just want to figure out the best way to get you elected. Barghast seems really reasonable, so I think if the case swayed him, others may follow.
I do like to lurk and gain info from the thread, rather than being super productive, so I'll try not to make a splash unless necessary.
Jalan, on 23 August 2013 - 05:37 PM, said:
Sounds good. I think if I continue being less lurky, and you continue being lurky, you can pop up and lend assistance to me whenever you can do it without jeopardizing us. I have a really hard time lying low in Mafia, so I think it's best if we both just play to our strengths and keep as much info in here as we can.
