MURDER PROPOSALS

MURDER PROPOSALS


Do you want to murder people? Cool, us too.

While we're running on a rotating mafia mechanic, sometimes things come up in the game that just make you want to coordinate a murder off the cuff. We highly encourage players to come to us and send in murder proposals to spice up the game and make things more fun in trials!

In this game, corruption is an available mechanic even for characters who would not wish to kill of their own volition. The character will essentially become a corrupted, bloodthirsty, alignment-switched (if necessary) version of themselves that would act out on their baser aggressions and vices to kill another character, no matter how petty the reason. Please keep in mind that in the event of corruption, characters would still need to ICly justify who they’re killing and how, based on the dark versions of themselves.

Characters do not need to be corrupted in order to murder, but if that’s something that you wish to use, please feel free!

We are generally pretty relaxed when it comes to murder proposals, but we do ask that you have a clear idea in mind of how you wish to go about your plan! We may also ask you to pick a different victim or change other aspects of your proposal depending on in-game events.

We will allow conditional murder proposals. In this case, you can indicate a sequence of events that would compel your character to kill, rather than a specific victim (for example, a character being inclined to go on a killing spree should their close CR be killed or executed, etc.) Please be advised that if you fill out this sort of murder proposal there are no take-backs; if the scenario you indicate occurs, then at least one character must die - your character can murder the person who triggered it, or die trying, depending on how you and the other participant plot it out.

Please see the basic form behind the cut and please be sure to submit this by Tuesday at 8 AM PST / 11 AM EST of the week you wish to kill! This way we can coordinate with all parties accordingly.

Character name: Who you're playing
Contact: Your form of contact
Potential Victim(s): Please make this number no more than two!
Corruption: Will your character be corrupted in order to perform the kill?

Murder Plot: A basic rundown will suffice! We'd just like to know what your character is planning to do to their victim and what mechanics are in play. This helps us determine if the plot will fit, what items or resources may need to be pulled in and other necessary factors. If you have something detailed we won't stop you, but we are also happy to work with you!

Evidence: What could go wrong with this? What small piece of evidence or screw-up would be left behind that indicates this was a murder that wasn't a mafia hit? This doesn't have to be blatantly obvious evidence! We encourage players not to latch onto evidence in trials, but we do ask that it's something that can be used to help think about the situation should characters apply a little logic and critical thinking. This can range from items, injuries, faulty alibis, etc.

Other: Any other questions, comments, or concerns that you have! We can address them with you at the time of contact.

Note: If you need to remove your character from gameplay for any reason, please flag your mods by Tuesday at 8 AM PST / 11 AM EST of that week. Thanks!
