... As the gate opened, Gnaeus came to a halt. The figure who had opened the gate was aiming a bow straight at him. His throat was suddenly dry. "Why? Who?", he managed to rasp. His body was thrown backwards as the arrow entered his skull through his right eye. He managed to get up on his knees and hands and with his last, fading strength, he mumbled; "My sons... My wife..."
The figure with the bow shone a diabolic grin at him. "They will be taken care of."
Gnaeus tried to scream in frustration, but only a faint exhale left him as he collapsed in the moist grass and a pool of his own blood. His horse panicked and galloped from the scene, and the assailant returned towards the mansion.
Screams emanated from the family bedchamber and echoed through the night. Those who were awakened by the noise crept together in their rooms and found something to defend themselves, but no more people were attacked during the night. After what felt like years of painful vigilance in the dark, the inhabitants gathered in front of the house in the morning. They were seven people left, and among them, murders were loose. Isolated and far from the safety of the city, they would have to fight for their lives against those who sought to steal them away from them.
They went about burying Gnaeus, his wife, and his youngest son with a crestfallen attitude, sending each other mistrusting glares...

Game info:
In the day phase, vote against who you think is the murderer. Voting format is vote:Diamondeye for votes and unvote:Diamondeye for unvotes. Please note that you must unvote before you can vote against someone else. The person with the most votes at the end of the day will be lynched. In the night phase, the murderer will attack someone else and attempt to kill them. If anyone else has nighttime abilities, this is the phase to use them in.
Both day and night phases will be relatively short, 24 hours each, to keep the game within the 120-hour limit for mini mafia games - the only exception to this is the first phase, which will last 36 hours to get the game on tracks and establish the timeframe of the game. This means that phases change at 10 PM, my timezone (CET - Summertime savings?).
If you miss two votes in a row, or three votes during the course of the game, you will be removed from the game. Abstaining from night actions has no other reprecautions than the waste of a chance to use them, but for the sake of the game balance (and your team's chances), please send in orders every night.
Character PMs - EVERYONE HAS ONE:
Looks roughly like this:
Please note that all seven character PMs contain this info - even the mafia have been given these as cover, and there is no way to discern the cover roles from the 'real' roles whatsoever. Not any reliable ones, anyway.Originally Posted by Diamondeye
You are welcome to reveal your PM to another player in private, or in public, if you wish to, or simply hint at its contents (such as your title and name).
The sending title of all PMs are of the same format;
The mafia's true titles/names are not in the sending title.Mini Mafia Role: Title, Name
