[Phalla] Heroes - signups closed, reserves still open

"In recent days, a seemingly random group of individuals has emerged with what can only be described as "special" abilities. Although unaware of it now, these individuals will not only save the world, but change it forever. This transformation from ordinary to extraordinary will not occur overnight. Every story has a beginning."

Based on the TV show Heroes, this game of Phalla is set up for 30-40 people. Please pick a number when you sign up.

Copying practically word-for-word from Rygar:

Gameplay and Rules
Each night everyone will get to vote for a person they believe suspicious. At the end of the round, the person (or people) with the most votes will be arrested (essentially out of the game), and the voting begins anew for the next round. If you vote for someone, you may not go back and edit your vote away. You must make a new post that says you retract the vote. Votes and retractions should be framed as such, or at least similarly:

I !vote to have Hylianbunny arrested.

I !retract my vote to have Hylianbunny arrested.

The voting closes each night at 10pm Eastern. The first round will end on ______ (depends on when we start). Those who have special abilities need to PM me their intentions by 9:45pm Eastern to use their powers. Furthermore, you may not contact anyone anonymously, share role PMs (though you can explain your role if you so wish), or post in the thread once you die. You may not contact anyone once you are dead, and you may not contact the dead if you are living, unless told otherwise. Everyone is allowed one goodbye post that may not have any pertinent information. I am told mods will be watching. There will be no dead thread either. Suck it up and wait for the endgame.

Activity Clause
Two posts a day or you are out. If you will be gone for a day, or few days, contact me so that I can announce it to the thread. If you are a special, I will give you a chance to give orders in advance. Otherwise, you die in the next narration. Everyone gets a free pass in round one, as last time we axed certain people too quickly. I don’t really pay as much attention to the activity clause as some people, so don’t worry about it too much.

Roles
There are a number of sides in this game of Phalla, with evolved humans in each group. Groups may have alternate win conditions.

As time goes on, special events may occur which alter the rules slightly. Alterations in this fashion will be announced.

    Damn, I want to sign up but I don't know if I can manage two phallas again. Well, I'll sign up and maintain a quieter profile I think.

    !sign up for slot omega (#40)

    40 people is at least manageable.
