Dead by Daylight is an assymetrical online competitive video game where The Entity pits one superpowered Killer against four Survivors in a "Trial" where Survivors ultimately have a goal to repair up to five stationary generators to power two exit gates and escape... to a campfire where they await the next Trial. The Killer, meanwhile, attempts to do just that: attack Survivors, wounding or knocking them down, and skewering them on meat hooks to offer them to the Entity.

Survivors and Killers each gain access to a selection of four perks, one burnt offering, and one item (for Survivors) and one power (set for each Killer.) Survivors and Killers both can use two add-ons to modify either their survivor item or Killer power, with the ultimate goal being one that benefits the Entity - feed off the hope of the survivors and the pain and death that the Killer inflicts before the Survivors reappear at the bonfire.

What does this mean from a Mafia game standpoint? Well, you have been chosen by the Entity and pulled into The Fog to play a game of hope. A game of fear. A game... of Mafia. Yes, there will be some broad strokes here. Just deal with it.

--Things that need further clarification below this point.--
TRAITS: Every player has received one to three "Traits" in lieu of roles. Some Traits may just be for flavor, some may have passive abilities attached to them, and some have activated abilities attached to them. If your Trait does not mention "take an action" then it is not an active ability.
ALIGNMENTS: Every player has been told SOLO QUEUE is the term for Town.
HELP I DON'T KNOW WHAT THESE TERMS MEAN: Look, I'm sorry. I enjoy writing, and I occasionally forget that not everyone enjoys reading. Here's an outline on some common terms that may or may not be relevant.
"The Entity:" The Entity is the overseeing force of the constant cycles of slaughter, sacrifice, and fleeing for your life. It manifests in the real world as a black mist or fog, vanishing chosen people, creatures, and locations with ties to the occult or extreme violence.
"The Entity's Realm": The Entity's Realm is an alternate dimension adjacent to our own. The Entity is known for imperfectly recreating zones special to those it abducts. Sun may or may not be shining, but tufts of black fog obscure visibility after a couple dozen meters or so.
"The Fog": A cloud of darkness or mist, usually tied to the disappearance of people the Entity abducts. It manifests in lower concentrations all throughout the Entity's Realm, to the point where those within it sometimes call the Realm "The Fog" as shorthand.
"Trial": The Entity is believed to survive off of a constant cycle of hope and the despair of pain and death. To do so, it pits four souls against one in a "Trial" where the four must repair generators while evading the lone soul. These generators will power an exit door, where the four souls can escape to perform another Trial. Meanwhile, the lone soul is urged on by the Entity to wound and eliminate the other four. Either way, the five will find themselves around a bonfire until another Trial commences.
"Survivor": One of the aforementioned four souls. They are humans from the past, present, and future who have been abducted by the Fog for one reason or another, and are stuck in a constant loop of bonfire -> Trial -> death or escape -> bonfire.
"Killer": The aforementioned lone soul. They also are humans or creatures from the past, present, future, or parallel dimensions. If they do not comply with the Entity and try to hunt down the Survivors, they get warped in some way, such as Evan MacMillan, also known as the Trapper, being tormented with hooks through his flesh. (Evan will not be appearing in this game, this is just for demonstration.)

There may have been other terms used in your DM. If you have further questions, please DM me, but be wary that I can not provide any information that might affect the game outcome.

-------------RULES-------------
1.) "Roles" have been swapped out for "traits." Players will have 1-3 traits by default.
2.) Etiquette: Please play to win - do not deliberately sabotage the game out of frustration. It is a game. We are ostensibly all working adults, and if you want to bring certain bigoted views or commit TOS violations, do it on your own time. Also, there is a line between "No, that's fucking stupid" and "no, you're fucking stupid." The former is acceptable, within reason. The latter is not. If you have personal distaste for a player, keep it out of the game - and remove them from your block list, because it's awfully hard to debate against a wall. Lastly, try and limit the amount of posts with naught but images, videos, and sound clips - Fandom is quite annoying enough with it already, thank you.
3.) Start and end times of days/nights: Days last for ~48 hours or until someone is eliminated by vote. Standard "End of Day" will fall at 9:00 PM Eastern time. Night lasts for at least 23 hours, subject to change based on circumstances
4.) Actions: Day actions may be submitted up until 24 hours before the scheduled End of Day. Night actions may be submitted as quickly as the start of the night, but are due a minimum of one hour before the start-of-day, and will resolve after I have determined interactions between who has done what.
5.) Votes, votals-keeping and Stop calls. Keep your votes and actions taken clear. The easier it is to follow what you're attempting, the easier it is to keep the game going. Use this with ##vote: <target> or ##unvote - I will attempt to keep votals accurate. Self-voting is not allowed. No posting after Stop calls! You are liable for refreshing before you post to not violate this. "NIghttime" is considered a Stop until the next Day.
6.) Flavor meta at your own risk. You can lie about your flavor, if you like, but do not attempt to use the copypasted wording from your DM as an argument for "wait why would that happen Isquen said this." Flavor does not necessarily equate to alignment nor ability - and if I've been warned for modkilling over it in the past, so shall you be. If you have any questions about your flavor, I encourage you to look up your assigned character.
7.) Flips: Flips for dead players will occur at the start of day, and also at the end of voting. Once a flip is posted, the death is final.
8.) Deletions and edits: Please refrain from deleting or heavily editing posts, as well; doing a minor typo fix is inevitable, but changing your entire argument on the fly is a no-no.
9.) Order of operations for actions occurring at the same time:
Host Discretion (unlikely, please do not make me.)
Any ability for which it convenient to act early such as recruiter/neighborizer/backup.
Strongman/Poison
Redirection
Roleblocking
Role stealing
Any form for kidnapping/commuting
Any fringe case other categories
Regular killing
10.) Liability: I am in no way affiliated with BHVR, but have occasionally used their established lore with extreme creative liberty. Except when I haven't. My views are not BHVR's views. Please don't sue.
11.) Activity/Replacements: You have 48 hours in the day. I'm expecting at least a bare minimum of effort. If you need a replacement, ask early in DMs so I can arrange for it. Do not discuss replacements as an argument for or against a player.
12.) Standard Mafia rules will otherwise apply. If you have questions about the game that I am able to answer without compromising the game, please either DM me on here or on Discord.

Anyone else think they rolled an indy survivor until they learned that was the name of town?

I'm probably going to be a hindrance and/or nuisance to town this game. So let that simmer for a bit.

Happy Hunting. Let's do it.

Anyway, both of them made the same post that was exactly my first reaction to seeing my role PM. And you might say, well that's too easy. Mafia can be that easy.

The fact that they both posted it at the same time also makes it look less coordinated.

And no, I don't think they're the type who rolls mafia and gets to see what the mafia PM looks like and then decides to play 4d chess with that post. Don't even try it, Lopen

The role PMs came an entire day before the opening post. This was not publicly available information, and I did think I was scum for about... 5 seconds or so.

But I also think it's easy enough to fake that kind reaction in a first post, so...

Okay I'm a little confused because first thing I do when I get a PM is see if there is a discord link because that is more a giveaway than anything.
