Mafia 5 - School's Out...FOREVER!
« on: 27 Feb 2013, 08:09 »

A sudden snowstorm has left several students and faculty members stranded in Hatchet University. While it has never been a large university, Hatchet's location in the Severance Mountains has meant that it has acquired a reputation of remoteness, meaning that those who choose to attend are often left to their own devices as they study a wide range of subjects.

Unfortunately, this out of season snowstorm has meant that the few who hadn't left for the end of semester are now without heat and power and no means of escaping thanks to fifteen foot of snow blocking the entrances. At best, it'll be a week before anyone can come to find out why there has been no contact from the university. Until then, those trapped inside are going to have to make due. They have plenty of food and water, so its not like they're going to starve, right?

But the snowstorm has presented an opportunity to a small handful of individuals to put some theories into practise. Hatchet University is about to receive a lesson in murder!

Rules
1. Days will last for 48 hours or a player receives more votes than half the number of players still alive to get lynched
2. Nights will last for 24 hours. Roles which require PMing the GM have to do so by this time frame else they don't use their action. Should you have a role with an action you wish not to use, simply have "ABSTAIN" as the title for the PM.
3. Roles of people who die will be revealed.
4. Posting is allowed in the night as well as the day.
5. Once a player posts in this thread, that post cannot be edited or deleted.
6. There will be no lynching for the first two days, but as people become desperate, well, mob rules takes over. Votes should be in bold and in colour at the bottom of the post.
6(a). The first two days, instead of a lynching, there will be a Detaining vote. Detained individuals will be locked in a room overnight while the others search for a clue as to whether or not they are innocent. However, there is also a chance that the killers will not be able to pass up such an easy target. The detained, might be killed during the night. (40%, to be determined by a random number generator)
7. The player with the majority (one more than half the living players) get lynched and the day ends. Should the the day end before a majority is reached, the player with the most votes will get lynched. A minimum of two votes is necessary for a person to get lynched. In the case that there is a tie in the most votes, the day will end with no lynched occurring.
8. Dead men tell no tales (no dead players can post in the game thread or talk about the knowledge they gained from playing the game)

The Cast
1. De_la_nae - Student
2. Loki
3. Unicorn - Killer
4. Gareth - Janitor (May choose to warn a player at night; however, if the player is targeted, the Janitor is killed instead)
5. TRVA123 - Student
6. Game and Watch Forever - Student
7. Cesium133 - Campus Nurse (May choose to protect a player at night. If the player is targeted, they escape with light injuries)
8. Linds - Student
9. Black Sword - Killer
10. Henri Bemis - Campus Security (Investigates players at night)
11. Riccostar - Survivor

NIGHT 0

There is a wet/dry vac somewhere, so if we did get the power back on we'd probably be able to use it. I think there's a generator somewhere too?

I don't know if there's a generator, but maybe the cafeteria stoves run on gas?  That would at least give us some heat.

Hello de_la_Nae *waves* Something has happened. We have no power. I cannot read my books, so I am doing the best I can to improve everything, namely getting some light source and then getting back to my books.

I'm sorry, I'll try to be more quiet in my attempts to restore the power and heat that benefit all of us.

We're stuck here, and it only works if we work together.  You think I wouldn't prefer a cozy bed?

Blah. Hello here! What the hell do you think the wondrous machinery called THE HUMAN BODY is for? Snuggle up under some blankets and if that isn't enough run around and exercise, damnit! Not like most of your energy is given off as *heat*, amirite?

*sighs* But light and an external heat source wouldn't be the worst thing. These aren't the most well-insulated dorms. I guess I'll go see what I've got, it'll probably take some time before they get electrics going again out here.

DAY 1

As the dawn rises, the students stir from their slumber and let out a collective sigh as they realise that the snow is still present, blocking the exits. As everyone gathers in the canteen to get breakfast and get in what little study they can in the dark conditions.

As the hours pass, it soon becomes apparent that one of their number has not been seen all day. The students and faculty split up into groups and begin the search.

The search does not last long. After checking several rooms, the bloody body of Linds is found in her room, stabbed several times by a variety of blades. What reason could anyone have to kill a student like her?

Upset and sickened by the sight and unable to call for help, the others gather in the canteen to discuss matters.

...before they strike "again?" That's an interesting choice of words, cesium. Any other person would have thought that it was murder of one person, not a serial killing. Then you go and offer the "pit?" I've seen this movie before! You ain't making people suits out of us!

And if we've got someone here insane enough to murder one person, how can we trust they aren't going to murder more people?

Well, let's see... she hasn't breathed in several hours, her body temperature is *digs up thermocouple reader and sticks it into Linds' mouth* 15 degrees C, and she doesn't respond at all to any stimuli. I'm no expert, but I'd say she's dead.

If it's any consolation, Gareth, if you die before I do, I'll fondle your corpse extra hard with my temperature sensor. But hopefully we've got many years until then.

The lab who had that room before us used it for electromagnetic shielding for their anti-gravity chamber or something. We just use it as storage space.

There's no food here. All that's in the fridge is some cesium, some laser dye, and some heavy water. I have no clue why I've got heavy water in the fridge.

Isn't there a cafeteria somewhere on campus? We could probably find some food there.

I know it sounds crass, but I think our best options for Linds are either the walk-in freezer (I'm assuming the caf has one) or outside, in the snow.  Whatever we do, we can't just leave her like this.

We've got plenty of food and water, guys.  Everything in the cafeteria, and we can always smash the vending machines.  We should start with anything perishable.
