Ranked Future Endeavours '24: A Mafia Game by Sky

[Sky]

What happens when the biggest wrestling company in the world decides it doesn't need you any more?
It doesn't care for you, first of all, and it doesn't consider how you'll be putting food on your family's table.
It just sends you your notice, and wishes you the best of luck in your...
FUTURE ENDEAVOURS
A New Mafia Game by Sky

There were a great many wrestlers who departed WWE in 2024.
Some were well-liked enough that the fans collectively said Good Luck to them...
However, those whose personal indiscretions had ended their career were not so well received.
Now, they engage in a war of words, for supremacy.
Will those who did their best to be decent people prevail?
Or will the scumbags win the day?

Rules

• 48 hour Days, 24 hour Nights.
• Majority eliminations only.
• No Night posting.
• There will be no character or flavour claiming in this game. Not even hinting at it.
• No out-of-game communication unless specifically provided.
• No posting your role PM.
• No posting/reacting after death.
• Angleshooting is a bad idea. I'm probably inconsistent, that is not a tell of any player. For more info on angleshooting check out that one Mafia Universe post about it, it's linked pretty much everywhere on that site.
• Anything that goes against the spirit of the game will be punished, e.g. truth tells, wagers, discussion around replacements, etc.
• Keep it light. I'll be a bit harsher on flaming than usual, so be aware of that. Threats and bigotry are absolutely forbidden.
• If you have questions or think there's an issue, use your PM first. However, if you didn't read your role properly before using an ability, I won't change the result to help you.
• Activity: if you are consistently unavailable to contribute to the game you will be replaced. I won't make a specific limit because that's too gameable, but generally, if you're close to the number of posts the host has in mid-game you're doing something very wrong.
• Town alignment is Good Luck.

Resolution of abilities will follow the same order as in ITYSL.

Spoiler: Sample PM

Name: Emma Diaz
Alignment: Good Luck
Role: Vanilla
Of all the people that washed out of the Performance Center due to WWE not seeing a future in them, Emma Diaz stuck out to me. Maybe it's that she left without getting her Special WWE-Assigned Name. Or maybe it's that she's unexpectedly stuck with wrestling, even getting an ROH run-out as Carolina Cruz. Makes up for being cut out of this game at the last minute, I suppose.

• You don't have a special role or ability.

You will win if town can eliminate any hostile parties.

DO NOT POST YET !!!!

@EkkoLoJinx has been modkilled. Character claims are not allowed. Shoulda read the OP.

Spoiler: Ekko was...

Name: Tegan Nox
Alignment: Good Luck
Role: Vengeful Priest
It wasn't a huge surprise to see the Girl with the Shiniest Wizard moving on in November. Over two runs with WWE she'd gotten a reputation for getting injured before she could blow off any feud or take part in a big match. She's still a good wrestler, just... no knees. Hopefully she finds both a stable home for her craft and medical intervention so she isn't in a wheelchair by 40.

• You cannot be the hammer on a wagon. If your vote would push a player to majority, it does not count.
• If you are eliminated by the majority vote, you will automatically kill the player who scores the hammer.

You will win if town can eliminate any hostile parties.

Lethal went out of business...

Spoiler: Lethal was...

Name: MVP
Alignment: Good Luck
Role: 2x Neighbouriser
Used more in a manager role in recent years, MVP's latter-day highlight was guiding Bobby Lashley to the top as part of the Hurt Business. His later partnership with WWE's new giant Omos went nowhere, and he left around the same time Lashley did. They got back together again in AEW, and despite hovering around the age of 50, became the hot new business in that company.

• During Night, you may target another player. You invite your target to your neighbourhood. In your neighbourhood, you can chat with any other living players in it privately, even during Night.
• You know that Bobby Lashley is in the game. If you can target him with your ability, something good will happen for both of you.

You will win if town can eliminate any hostile parties.

It is now Day 2. With 13 players alive, majority is 7. You have 48 hours.

If there were a gold medal for getting voted out, RDK could go for that too...

Spoiler: RDK was...

Name: Gable Steveson
Alignment: Good Riddance
Role: 3x Jailkeeper
WWE thought they had the next Kurt Angle when they signed this Olympic gold medallist, but really they got someone with no aptitude for the business or desire to improve. Oh, and a rapist, don't forget that. His greatest achievement was getting Baron Corbin cheered during his only televised match. He would then go on to emulate Brock Lesnar by failing in the NFL too.

• During Night, you may target another player. Your target is prevented from performing any abilities that Night, but if they would be killed by another player's ability, they are prevented from dying.

You will win if your alignment's dominance becomes unstoppable.
