The Council of Villains- Large Mafia Game [Concluded]

The Council of Villains

Postgame Edit: Summary Thread if you just want to read the write-ups.

It was a dark and stormy night; one of those rare occasions where, in every single location in the universe, it was dark and stormy. Clouds hung over the skies of Hyrule as Link, reincarnated to destroy evil yet again, marched on to the next dungeon. Rain caused Mario and his friends to slide all over the road as they raced by in karts, with absolutely no care for the Princess Peach’s safety. And in one corner of this dark and stormy universe, a great mind was working diligently and meticulously.

Deep in the depths of a gigantic laboratory, Dr. Eggman tinkered on what would soon be his greatest invention yet. Combining the powers of a fusion reactor, a time machine, an inter-dimensional portal, and a blender would be no easy task. Thunder boomed outside, as for many hours the doctor labored on this monstrosity of a machine. Finally, a voice escaped his throat:

“Finally… it is done.” The doctor breathed heavily. He was tired, but the same old maniacal excitement was bubbling up within him.

“At last! The Dimensional Scrambler is complete! Sonic will be destroyed, and my Eggman Empire is now a reality! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!”

Dr. Eggman paused to catch his breath after his outburst. “Now, then, let’s fire it up and see what it can do,” he muttered as he walked over to the control panel.

----------------------------------------------------

I welcome you all to my newest mafia game, The Council of Villains. This game will have some definite similarities from my last (and first) game, The Lunar Whale. The biggest difference (aside from the game size, of course) will probably be in the style of the write-ups: the composition will remain mostly the same, but instead of the heavy, dark passages that were in the Lunar Whale, I have decided this game will have a much more humorous slant. The situation, even though we are dealing with villains here, would not do well for another serious setting.

I suppose I should tell you all a bit about the game, then. I've pretty much shamelessly ripped elements that I like from all of the mafia games that I've played in (:clown:), but the biggest similarities you'll find with this game are probably in ATPG's The Full Monty. There are a lot of similarities with that masterpiece of a game, notably:

-everyone gets a role, and many will have an ability of some sort.
-there will be multiple mafia, and perhaps a neutral role or two as well.

In the game, each player will be playing the role of a villain from a video game. I urge you all to role-play as your villain- some of them can be particularly hilarious and are practically required a roleplayer, as they will liven the game up considerably.

Here's the current list of villains. I would welcome any suggestions as well, it took me a while to find some more obscure ones. You'll notice there will be more than one villain from the more prominent series out there.

Roles:
Bowser
Wario
Count Bleck
Cackletta
Fawful
King Boo
Bowser Jr.
Dimentio
Dr. Eggman
Shadow the Hedgehog
Mephiles
Chaos
Ganondorf
Vaati
Zant
Sephiroth
Kefka
Golbez
Ridley
Dark Samus
Mewtwo
Albert Wesker
Lord Saddler
Dr. Wily (probable, suggestion by Super Market)
Sigma
Big Boss
Gray Fox
King Dedede
Meta-Knight
Andross
Wolf O' Donnell
High Prophet of Truth
The Arbiter
Ansem
Giygas
Porky
King K. Rool
Dracula (Castlevania)
Black Knight
Magus
Al-Mualim
Nightmare
Gruntilda
The Dark Prince
General Raam
Black Shadow
Alex
Orochi
Miles Edgeworth
Lu Bu (possible, suggestion by pevergreen)
The Joker (possible, suggestion by ATPG and others)
Darth Vader (possible, suggestion by navarro)

With this many characters, I'm looking for around 40 players. More character suggestions does mean I can add more players, if we get that high.

General Specific

The Rules: This only outlines rules that are customized for this game- I'm assuming you all know the standard mafia rules, or should otherwise check the stickied mafia FAQ.

-Quoting of all pms is allowed, unless I say otherwise in a specific pm. It obviously may not be the best strategy, though...
-Vote:Abstain is allowed, although you may not Vote: No Lynch.
-The dead may post, but cannot quote or exchange pms, or reveal their roles.
-Obviously no screenshots or chatlogs... I don't think that's been allowed in any game I've played.
-Each phase lasts 24 hours, hopefully, starting with a day phase. If I am late I will add extensions, and if I find my homework (:wall:) too time-consuming, I may have to make phases 48 hours.

Alright, then. Let sign-ups commence, this game will be okay to begin after either Inishmore or The Settlement ends, although I may take a few days longer for sign-ups, of course.

Additionally, which I forgot to mention before, there will probably be spoilers from the games these villains are in. Probably shouldn't be too big of a deal.

EDIT: Finally hit the 30-player benchmark. Hopefully I'll have about 5 additional friends of mine joining (splitpersonality is one), and some leftovers from the Settlement and Inishmore before the game starts on Thursday. I suppose the game can be deemed playable, now.

First! :D

Uhh.. sign me up.

Oh, and what about "The Guy"?

In!:crown:

Awesome.

What game is this "The Guy" fellow from? I'll look him up and add him to the list later.

Of course I'll be in. There wouldn't be a council of villains without me.

In.

Well, "The Guy" isn't from a real game. He's from a half-joke one. Its called I Wanna Be The Guy, and it is extremely hard.

As long as we're on the subject, can you add Dr. Wiley from the Megaman games?

I will add Dr. Wily if you want. The main reason I chose Sigma over him is because I can't find a good pic or a reasonable source of info on him.

As for "The Guy"... :laugh4:
If you can give me a good enough description in a pm, I may add him just for kicks.

In.

In Chaotix we trust!

Please! In!

I have been lurking about the Gameroom for two weeks waiting for this..

Sign me up as for bad guys I don't know about adding some more western villians since at least to me quick scim it appears to be asian heavy.

Lu Bu! Biggest baddest :daisy: in the world!

(Lu Bu from the Dynasty Warriors games) http://www.toyzhunt.com/files/users/56/Lu_Bu.jpg

Ingame he has a glowing red/black aura as well. :2thumbsup:

Also, in.

IN......It wouldn't be a council of Dark Warlord the AskthepizzaguyVillians.:clown:


Edit:.....I would be happy with any of those guys:beam:

In. Looking forward to this one Chaotix27 :2thumbsup:

I will of course :bow: but I should tell you about my situation. Around early May I will go on cruise and then probably vacation and as such probably won't log on at all for at least a month. I don't mind playing while I can in April, but I will go AWOL if the game lasts into May. If you think this is a problem, then you don't have to let me play, but you can always WoG me if I last that long. :2thumbsup:

In.

In! :crown:

In!!! :smash:

Definitely sexy.

That won't be a problem at all. I doubt the game will drag on until May, but if it does and you survive, WoGing you shouldn't last that long. Something tells me you'll be particularly hilarious in this game, Reenk, something I won't pass up!

@Warman- you can only sign up once. :clown:

:smash:

I have a question;

Do I have to dispose of all the dead bodies from pevergreen's game before I can engage in supervillainy here? I'd need to borrow some gasoline.

I have a oil tanker run aground off Hawii you can borrow some from... long story but it has to do with a tire iron, 2 bottles of lime juce and 3 drunk frogs.

Oooh.... don't bring up the oil tanker either. I think I still have some gold bars I need to return. There are still some bodies which haven't been recovered from that game. Less mess that way, though. Sharks gotta eat too.

:angel:




oops,

:focus:

Humph... Fine I wanted to pollute some reefs anyway... On a unrelated note does anyone want to purchase some intoxicated frog warriors?

Gimme. I will... make a robot out of them that is weak to alcohol and amphibians!

Myesss.... Perfect!

I've allready done that... and it was a stupid idea. And you call yourself an evil genius? You are an insult to the feild of science. Now stop bothering me; the killer shrimp need feeding.
