Alright All role PM's are out. THe framework for the story is set.

I suggest most of you do a quick reread of the end of the first Mafia, Particularly the last writeup.

The story will be up in an hour or so, and with it the first day phase will begin.

Townieville was quiet….. And yet still Achoo sensed something….. it was in the air, all around him. He stood tense, his staff by his side, ready for anything……
He never saw it coming. A bolt of red energy spiked from behind him, cutting through the wards he had placed on his clothing, and throwing him 10 feet forward. A creature stepped forward from the darkness behind Achoo, huge demonic fangs and horns jutting from his head, wings flapping behind its back.
“I have returned Achoo. It has taken years, years of toil, years of pain. But I am back, with strength enough to end you and this pathetic town. Vengeance is at hand for you, you pathetic arch mage!” Hid clawed fingers flexed, and a grisly smile came over his face.
Achoos sat, blood pooling from the wound he had suffered. “This is….. Expected. I had always known that getting an apprentice was the stupidest move I ever made. I swear, You would think wizards would have stopped getting them considering all they are ever good for is getting their master killed.” A smile came over Achoos face as well, but this was genuine. “But I regret nothing. Spare the town Reenkis. Please they have done nothing to you.”
“Nothing!? You ALL played a part in my death. And so you shall all suffer. Foolish Achoo, Now you DIE!” The demon lunged forward, claws reaching out towards Achoos throat. The claws etched deeply into his skin. And in his final moments Achoo let out a garbled laugh. He whispered slightly as he fell to the ground. “in death you only make me stronger.”
Reenkis laughed “What does this look like to you? Star wars? Have fun in whatever plane you end up, because I assure you when I am done here I will hunt you even in death!” He turned to the town, and scoffed. “only one thing to do at a time like this. Gratuitous amounts of violence.”…..
The town was a burning wreck by morning. And Reenkis nowhere to be seen, Only a portrait of Achoo’s apprentice remained, a man Called Death is Yonder, now name Gesundheit, in honor of his master. (And no, just because that is his name does not mean Death Is Yonder is Gesundheit. I am not THAT stupid. If there is a role in the game with your name you have just as much chance of getting it as everyone else.)
….

The man looked up at the wall surrounding the prison camp, rubbing his hand on his face. The cold bleakness of night was setting in, and he could not stay out here for long. “well that is a problem I did not think of.”
Two other men walk up behind him, one a young rogue, the other a burly man hidden in a cloak. “need some help?” the rogue asked.
The first man nodded “Yes thank you.”
The two went to there knees and helped the first up and over the wall.
“So what are you doing here?”
“ohh just breaking into the camp. You?”
“oh we are doing the same. Small world.”
“yes I guess so.”
They all made it over the wall, and parted ways not looking back once as they went to different parts of the camp.
……
A portal opened in the camp, into the deep darkness of ngiht. And a gaunt and naked figure appeared. The creature looked around the room and nodded with his empty face. He was a strange creature, with a body without any marks or features, simply a blank slate waiting to be filled. His face was simply two grey eyes and a sunken in Mouth, with no cheeks to speak of.
A guard turned a corner, almost running smack dap into the creature. “What the hell?” He stuttered and fell back trying to free his sword. The creature was faster however, and with one punch snapped the guards neck and sent him flying.
The monster made a odd chuckle and moved in on the guard, teeth growing into large fangs.
……

They saw the death as soon as the morning bell was rang. His arms and legs were torn to pieces. And his face….. His face was just…. Gone, into thin air. It unnerved everyone, the guards, the prisoners.
The Captain of the guard, he was terrified, He was going to be court marshaled for sure! He needed a scapegoat, or maybe even a suspect. And he needed it fast. Drastic measures needed to be taken. Well, no other choice then. “all of you! We need to figure out who killed Bob, and Fast! Here how it is going to work. Each day we will all cats a vote, and whoever gets the most votes gets executed as the murderer!” The captain Nods, “Yes that is a perfect Idea! Well, don’t look at me, get started!”

Begin Day one. It shall end October 17 at 8:00 AM, to give everyone a chance to figure out the game is on.

Any questions PM me.

Dice gods like a Tally.

Also It has occurred to me that those who were not in SaD20's 1 might not know what the levels in their PM are.

Level plays a part in whether a kill attempt succeed or fails. Basically the higher the better.

say a level 7 attacked a level 7, The attacker has a 25% chance of the kill succeeding, due to how close in level they are.

however if a level 9 attacked a level 5 then he has almost a 90% of success.

The dice gods are now amused. That is all.

Also, a link to the first game. https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=120054 Last writeup is on page 7. Could be useful to get a feel for most of your roles.
