Darkest Dungeon Mafia
Ruin has come to our family. You remember our venerable house, opulent and imperial, gazing proudly from its stoic perch above the moor? I lived all my years in that ancient, rumor shadowed manor, fattened by decadence and luxury - and yet I began to tire of conventional extravagance. Singular, unsettling tales suggested the mansion itself was a gateway to some fabulous and unnameable power. With relic and ritual I bent every effort towards the excavation and recovery of those long buried secrets, exhausting what remained of our family fortune on swarthy workmen and sturdy shovels.
At last in the salt soaked crags beneath the lowest foundations we unearthed that damnable portal of antediluvian evil. Our every step unsettled the ancient earth but we were in a realm of death and madness. In the end I alone fled laughing and wailing through those blackened arcades of antiquity until consciousness failed me.
You remember our venerable house, opulent and imperial. It is a festering abomination! I beg you. Return home; claim your birthright, and deliver our family from the ravenous, clutching shadows of the Darkest Dungeon.
*This game uses detail from the Darkest Dungeon universe - it is primarily based on Darkest Dungeon 1 but certain elements, flavour, characters etc may also have been incorporated from Darkest Dungeon 2 - Explicit familiarity with the source material is not required, but may lead to greater enjoyment and understanding!
Rules
- Day Phases will last 48 hours. I reserve the right to adjust this as the game progresses
- Night 1 will last a maximum of 30 hours, and subsequent night phases a maximum of 24 hours. I reserve the right to adjust this as the game progresses
- The primary town alignment is Hamlet Aligned.
- The primary mafia alignment is currently unknown (To most of you!)
- This game will enforce a zero tolerance policy on actions I consider to be outside the spirit of the game, including but not limited to: ITT sub out threats/requests, retirement wagers, excessive flaming, angleshooting and role PM quoting. Punishment for violation of this rule is solely at my discretion, up to and including replacement without warning and/or modkilling.
- I will be using my standard Active Time Resolution system for role actions, this will be added prior to Night 1
- This game will also debut a Twilight system - at the point a lynch is reached and acknowledged, you will have a 5 minute window in which you may post prior to the flip. Upon publication of the flip, all posting must cease.
- All roles are night use only unless explicitly stated. If you are unsure or feel I have made a mistake/omission, please PM me
- If you have multiple roles, you may only use one role per night unless explicitly stated
- Most importantly, have fun! This is a very ambitious game, and I hope my track record affords me the benefit of the doubt that I've gone to a lot of lengths to provide a contest that is, at the very minimum, fair and respectful of your time.
- Usual caveats apply re: FITZproofing the game - there intentional inconsistencies in content and structure of role PMs, dont use this kind of thing to hunt. Some characters have roles that closely match their flavour, others do not.
- Setup spec will be extremely dangerous to engage in this game - you can expect a certain degree of overlap in roles
- I reserve the right to add omissions to this list as appropriate
- A glossary of game concepts will be provided below - as you uncover more of the mysteries you face, and become more attuned to your task, this glossary will expand and serve as a reference point so that all players can easily locate mechanical information needed
Sample PM
Action Priority
As mentioned, this game will follow a sequential action resolution, designed to resolve conflicts and make it clearer how roles will hypothetically interact. The action priority is as follows:
Reflexive Roleblock / Nexus
Hide/Commute/Untargetable
Roleblock *
Bus Drive / Redirect *
Framer/Lawyer
Miscellaneous
Kill / Poison / Arson
Watch / Track / Follow / Voyeur / Motion Detect
* If these roles interact in such a way as to create a paradox, such as a bus driver driving themselves into a roleblock, the bus drive will jump in priority and resolve first.

Sample PM
Grammaton, the Host
Vanilla Townie
Congratulations, you are Grammaton, the Host, The Hamlet Aligned!
You will know the tragic extent of my failings ...
An often misunderstood fellow, you are the host of this game ...
In this game, you have no roles.
You win when all threats to the Hamlet are eliminated.
