Ravenous: A [Phalla] The Sun Also Rises on Notos: GAME OVER

edited February 2022 in Critical Failures
Retsef Rut rules over the Boreas Archipelago with an iron fist, his forces are harsher than steel and crueler than winter. He refuses the pleas from the weak, and lavishes over the suffering of the common people. Now he has come to Notos, to devour it whole and add it to his empire. He is truly

RAVENOUS

You are one of the people of Notos, split into four different factions of people: Aeolian, Siroccoan, Khamseen, and Zephist. These factions mean nothing, and everything to you. (NOTE: GAMEWISE THE FACTIONS DO NOT MATTER AND ARE FOR FLAVOR, DO NOT INFER FROM FACTIONS) Will your people survive the Borean Invasion? Will your people prosper and lead Notos to a bright future or will the Tiger King and his dark, demonic powers conquer your immaculate homeland?
PHALLA Is a game about the uninformed majority against the informed minority. That is the core of all of my games and this is no different. There will be specials, but they may be weaker than anticipated. I will not be providing clarifications for mechanics unless there is dire need for it. Information is a currency. Spend it well.

The Scope of this game is 31 players, and I hope we can get signups for the whole thing.

They do this by either PMing me their orders or by publicly posting in the thread with the format !Patsy. This cannot be changed once decided and whoever they choose first will be infected. Mafia members infected will die but cannot kill with the plague. After the mafia person dies, the person who gets second place in voting will again be plagued.

    I'd be interested in signing up but only if this is planning to launch after the weekend (I'm traveling for a wedding and will be incommunicado during that time). Feel free to relegate me to the waitlist if needed, thanks!

    I will probably wait until Monday to get this started simply so we aren't starting on the weekend ( I am assuming that it'll be a little slow to get all the spots filled)

    Note: you can sign up to be part of a specific faction if you want, or if you wanna be the village chief or the outsider

    For RNG purposes all the slots are the same and have the same odds of being special/villager/??? (and no, I have not yet rolled which rolls are which yet)

    It’s completely new to me; I think it’s specific to this game, such that none of us really know what any of this means.

    The idea that your vote is a moral statement about you or who you vote for is some backwards ass libertarian nonsense. Your vote is about society. Vote to protect the vulnerable.

    I read Siroccoans as Silicians to start, so my head cannon is now that we're all Italian in that faction.

    No I won't be taking questions at this time.

    A brief aside so ya'll can see how the sausage is made (I forgot that thing even existed TBH)

    The names of the groups within the village, as well as the countries, are all names of wind. Retsef Rut came with me playing around with some words, liking Rut and trying to think of alliteration and, well, Fester backwords made a nice addition so I got Retsef Rut.

    Tiger-King was a combination of one of my favorite Darkseid lines "I am the tiger-force at the center of all things" and the old fable about the King of Cats

    I picked up on the wind theme, but couldn't figure out what 'Tur Fester' was supposed to be. :p

    sign me up as Siroccoan

    If you're curious about my icon; it's an update of the early Lego Castle theme's "Black Falcons" faction.

    By my count that is only 30 players. Is there a secret player or am I missing something here?

  • ElvenshaeElvenshae Registered User regular
    I'd noticed that, too. :D

    But the real answer is that True Zephists fight with the strength of 1.143 persons, and so our 7 shall be as 8!

    That's because Elite Mafia always know the ins and outs of all phalla, even when they don't know, they know.
