Quisoves Potoo Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Mafia: Damage Control Heat, alien and oppressive, permeated the Isle of Botalnu. The turquoise sky, so often a welcome sight, seemed unwelcoming, a willing party in the act of smothering the island. The villagers, their pistons pumping strenuously, struggled to dig a hole that they might trap one of the increasingly elusive and hostile Rahi. Food was not yet scarce, but the labor required to obtain it had never been so hard. Nature was out of joint, that was unquestionable. The weather wildly fluctuated, tremors were common, the beasts seemed to fear everything, the stars (when they appeared at all) were erratic in their movements, and, perhaps most disturbingly, the Shamans' powers were waning. Some held that Haipori Nui was angry at his people, that he had forsaken them. Not that they could offer any helpful ideas. As the villagers dug, something glinted in the foliage. They all saw it, tried to ignore it, tried to concentrate on their job, but to no avail. Its presence there was quite out of the ordinary, and yet it was eerily familiar. They stopped their task, and as one they moved to uncover it. So they did, and horror spread over them. The shining object was a mask, broken in two. Near it, half buried in the sand, was the savaged body of one of their own. He had been a cripple and a recluse, and thus his absence had gone unnoticed. Someone had taken advantage of that. Indeed, no Rahi had killed him. The villagers knew the marks of the beasts, but these were something new. The Amber Shaman's prediction had been right, it seemed. Death was coming to Botalnu. Known roles: The village is blessed with the presence of four Shamans, beings of marvelous abilities. As if in connection to the upheaval in nature, their powers are not what their once were.Emerald Shaman: This gifted individual possesses the ability to influence the weather, by way of controlling the temperature.Sapphire Shaman: This valuable being can protect himself or others from harm. At the moment, he can only protect one person a night, and only from bodily harm or extreme heat.Onyx Shaman: This one has power over life and death. His abilities are now limited to either ending or restoring the life of a villager, every two nights.Amber Shaman: This Shaman is gifted with the power of divination. Now, he can only either determine the role of one player or determine the approaching weather each nightKillers: Before the decline of his powers, the Amber Shaman foretold the affliction of the village by those who valued not the lives of the villagers. He did so mere hours before the first signs of natural upheaval, and, unusually, fainted before he could elaborate on his message. When he awoke, his memory of the vision was dim. All he knew was that they were not all necessarily allied and that they would be, or would appear to be, inhabitants of the village. Rules:Standard BZPower rules apply. Please keep in mind that this means no treachery.Each Night lasts Twenty-Four hours, as does each Day.Votes can be switched no more than twice.The weather has seven levels-extreme cold, miserable cold, cold, temperate, hot, miserable heat, and extreme heat.Miserable weather has a 25% chance of delaying any activity. Extreme weather has a 50% chance of doing so. It also has a 1-in-3 chance of killing a villager.The Emerald Shaman acts during the Day.Weather lasts for one night and one day before changing (if it does change.)Twists: There are several of these, so be on your guard.
