I could write a description of the setting, but I don't think I could do the film justice. If you've seen it, you'll understand, if you haven't, go watch it!
Warning Character descriptions include spoilers from the film. So if you haven't seen it, don't read the Character description, just read the role description.
Standard mafia rules apply, 'day' and 'night' phases alternate. During the day phases all players vote for one player to be lynched. That person dies and is removed from the game. During the night phase the various principal roles perform their night actions, which includes the mafia killing people. If you're not sure about the rules, ask
This is a role heavy game, as I believe in lots of minor roles (which don't affect the main game, but add a bit of flavour for the lucky roled players )
Principal roles (the ones that really affect the game, I've put in brackets the common role that best fits the actual role).
Angel Eyes, The Bad (Mafia equivalent) x1
Cpl. Wallace, Henceman (Mafia supporter) x1
Tuco Ramirez, The Ugly (Serial killer) x1
Blondie, The Good (see below) x1
Sheriff (Detective) x1
Bounty Hunter (Vigilante) x2
Father Pablo Ramirez (Doctor) x1
I don't expect you all to read all the detail of each role, so here's the essential summary:
The game ends when:
The Bad and the Bounty Hunters are dead (Town victory)
OR The Bad and the Ugly are dead (Town victory)
OR The town runs out of townies (Town defeat).
There are potentially 3 kills per night phase, if all mafia, vigilantes, serial killers choose to kill.

Cowardly General Store owner
Character description (Warning, spoilers):
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
A guiless general store keeper who gets robbed by Tuco. He allows Tuco to humilliate him totally before being robbed of all his money and a revolver.
Special:
If either the Bad or the Ugly target this player, instead of dying his life becomes under their control. The agressor can then send the store owner instructions through the host.
If the agressor is displeased with the store keeper's behavior, he can kill him at any time (including in daytime, in which case any vote cast does not count).
The store keeper can be 'owned' by both the Bad and the Ugly, in which case he could recieve instructions from both players. Pleasing both should be difficult though...
Objectives:
Major Victory:
Survive the game
All else is a defeat
Wanted Man
Character description
(not a character from the film)
He has a skeleton in his closet, but the Sheriff seems unaware of it.
However, he's heard there's a bounty hunter in town, and this worries him.

Union Captain
Character description (Warning, spoilers):
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

He feels that the bloody siege his men are involved in is a futile waste, and dreams of destroying the bridge - a wish carried out by Blondie and Tuco. Mortally wounded in the Battle of Langstone Bridge, he dies just after hearing the bridge's destruction.
-edit- I request that Morricone sound files be linked whenever there's a death scene to properly compliment the film's atmosphere.

The ravages of the Civil war had left many towns desolate, Ghost Towns.
In one such town Mithrandir had stopped from his travels to bathe and cook up some food in the privacy of abandonment. Little did he know that he was not alone; a man had been following his trail, and arrived in town just as Mithrandir was preparing to leave.
Mithrandir took a swig from his bottle and walked to the door as he did up his belt, but before he could reach it, three bullets burst through the thin wooden planking and hit him in the chest. He was dead before he hit the ground.
The door swung loudly open, revealing Mithrandir's executioner, who took two steps to stand over his body. Shaking his head gently, he spun on his heels, mounted up, and rode on.
OOC:
This time only I will tell you the role of the victim. Mithrandir was an innocent townie. {BHC}AntiWarmanCake88 has informed me that he can't continue to play, and so I am offering to Mith the chance to take his place in the game.
