I think all the telekinetics had slightly different role PMs from talking to Baidol, which isn't surprising as Edcrab is savvy about these things.
The Pinnacle Guild likes to think that they're the darlings of the international community, the heroes that quelled the violence on Arcadia and united the natives.
Idiots.
Your "diplomatic" mission is to destroy their technological task force and end the threat posed by those warmongering primitives in the Arcadian Order.
As if the High Council would forget insults of that magnitude.
Faction:High Council Sub-faction: Psychic Life: You each have a life of 50 Attack: You each have an attack of 20 (Psionic)
Abilities:
Melding is the Healer Empath with Greater Cure, and may strip a single persistent negative effect off a target as well as Healing them for 50 Life. This is a psionic ability.
Wiet is the Breach Kinetic with Weaken, and may convert all the attacks on a target to Special damage. This ability may not be used in conjunction with an attack. This ability is nullified if Cure is used on the target in the same night, but it ignores Guard.
Alegis is the Grappler Kinetic with Constrict, and may select one target and force them to Obstruct a second target against their will (a busdriver, in essence).
Victory Conditions
Eliminate the forces of the Beta Team and the Arcadian Order.
To those who don't know Gamma's tale of backstabbing and shenanigans:
I started the game Pinnacle Guild, and contacted Gumpy despite being almost positive this was bullshit and he was actually EO. Didn't matter to me, killing people together is better than killing people alone. Surprising to no one, I was converted shortly thereafter and began my dire work for the Exigent Organization, helping pick apart the Security Cell. I was hell bent on killing Rend, for no particular reason really. I had a gut instinct he was High Council, ending High Council would have advanced our path towards victory.
The night after Rend ate a Mental Blast, he contacted me. I had been seered. He knew I was Exigent, he knew I was an Experiment, but he also knew he was going to develop a power called Loyalty the next day. He posited that it would enable reconversion. My options were thus: Remain loyal to Exigent, and die, and most likely gain a minor victory given the state Alpha was already in.
Instead I chose to go with Rend, and fed the names of Phyphor/Peccavi/Monkeyfeet to the village. I was shortly thereafter reconverted and opted out of El Skids guard the final night, telling Rend to protect himself. I duped Munkus into killing Alegis as a way of covering my bases, I still had access to the Exigent win condition and could win by virtue of three factions out of High Council/DOmarians/Alpha/Beta being dead in the scenario that my village win didn't pan out, and Alpha Team bit it.
Then the Arcadians blew my ass up.
Edit: Rend I hope you're happy I opted out of the guard OUT OF CONCERN FOR THE CREATOR.
I LIVED AS I DIED. KILLING OUT OF INSANE BLOODLUST.

Your "diplomatic" mission is to destroy their psionic task force and end the threat posed by the Guild's enigmatic rival, the Exigent Organisation.
How the hell these amateurs didn't notice you bringing your 10-ton bodyguard along, you don't know. Things have certainly changed since the days of Inf Idel.
Faction:Domarian Legion
Munkus Beaver is the Enforcer Mech Sub-faction: Mech Life: 200 Attack: 50 (Physical)
Abilities: Machine: The Enforcer Mech has complete immunity to psionic attacks and abilities, but as a result is instantly recognised as a non-organic entity by powers such as mindscan. Passive ability. Armoured: The Enforcer Mech automatically Guards itself each night; reducing the total attack power sent its way by 30. Passive ability. Obstruct: Take the target's place for the effect of all negative abilities and attacks. Used instead of an attack.
Infidel is the Enforcer Officer Sub-faction: Specialist Life: 75 Attack: 40 (Physical)
Abilities: Custody: Corner a target and violently interrogate them. This ability acts as a 50% Nullify (roleblock) and 100% Investigate. The target will be made aware of the fact that they were manhandled by Domarians. This ability may be used as well as an attack.
Victory Conditions
Eliminate the forces of the Alpha Team and the Exigent Organisation.
CAUTION!
Enforcer Mechs are ancient robotic killing machines but they get very, very attached to their partners. Should Infidel die, nobody will like the result...
Munkus Beaver is now the Rogue Mech Sub-faction: Mech Life: 300 Attack: 75 (Physical)
Destroy: The Mech must kill someone every night, or else lose 50 Life. The Mech is no longer capable of being Repaired. Improved Armour: Total incoming attack power reduced by 40. Multiattack: You may make two attacks each night. If they are both directed at the same target, the total attack power is sent through as Special damage.
Victory Conditions
Survive. Which considering your nature, will involve murdering things.
I TOOK THE HIT FOR INFIDEL AND THEN HE WAS MURDERED FOR MY TROUBLE.
THEN I GOT MAD AND GOT EVEN.
INFIDEL WAS GOOD AT PICKING TARGETS.
EACH ONE WAS VIABLE.

I think this was the hardest role I've ever had. Basically a vanillager, but I felt a lot of pressure since if we were killed the village was close to losing. Essentially, I needed to reach out to other people to get repaired to be at all useful, but we had no seers.
So I tried reaching out to people starting with AdventFalls. He had me contact Rawkking and egos, who both died after I started talking to them. Luckily no one thought it was suspicious that everyone I was in contact with died.
I also tried to contact Stever777 who was apparently evil.
I wonder what would have happened if I had gotten a repair. Was I target totally randomly or did the "mechanic" who was going to repair me kill me?
Also, I should apologize to MaxFrost for taking him out Day 1.
It's okay, I figured it was because I was being annoying as hell with the vote changes. I should learn to not do that when I'm squishy.

Thanks for running this ed. I wish I could have been more active than I was, but I didn't really account for how the early vote close would fit into my schedule.
Thankfully, warban and kime (before he died) were there to network us to victory.
So the Security Team boards. I tried to get the guard on RG , the day he died. Unfortunately the others weren't really into it. RG suggested that I change the orders in the OP, which would have been sensible..but it didn't seem very cool to me.. Anyways I think Solar was still pming in orders.. as I learned the next day. So forgive the conjecture on that day when I was trying to get my teammates to switch...
Apparently someone leaked our team to Fiaryn and his crew. Very curious about this
I uh, I killed tayrun by accident by picking my own target (he only had two posts! And they were just votes!), and I also confided heavily in bale because he had convinced me he was neutral. I did however end up tipping the high council that bale was bad, just by telling them the targets he wanted.

You're an experiment of the Pinnacle Guild. And you're... uh... different. You weren't even supposed to end up as a telekinetic, it just happened. That worried the scientists a whole lot.
You won't actively try and finish off the men and women who kept you in a ward for study, but at this juncture you're not too bothered with their fates either. Your own life is what matters to you.
Faction:Pinnacle Guild Sub-faction: Experiment Life: 150 Attack: See below
Abilities: Barrier Field: Choose to deal 100 Special damage to a target, or to protect them with a guard, reducing any damage (even Special damage) by 100. You may even guard yourself.
Victory Conditions
Survive!
Rend boosted me to 150 special damage vig or guard... I really didn't see any reason to do anything but self guard all game, unless I was shielding Rend. I knew that was alot of damage I could use to blow people up, but what was the point if I died? So yeah... alot of sitting around and guarding myself that game. :P
Supervisor to supervisors, specialist to specialists, you're the most talented support officer in the Guild. You can do damn near anything, and do it well.
Time to do everyone's job for them...
Faction:Pinnacle Guild Sub-faction: Specialist Life: 60 Attack: You have no attack!
Abilities: Adaptation: Target a member of the Specialist sub-faction, and duplicate their ability, using it on a second nominated target. This ability will not work with attacks.
Victory Conditions
Eliminate the forces of the Arcadian Order and the Exigent Organisation
This was a really awesome power that unfortunately, I didn't do amazing with.
My plan was to use Infidel's seer but he died fairly quick so I was firing blind at people for a night or 2.
Excellent narrations and game Edcrab. It was really fun to watch. Special thanks to Munkus / Murderbot for some truly excellent RPing. Everyone getting into the game made it more fun to read along.
Oh, my gun was 75 special damaged, needing to be repaired each time it fired.
For some reason, my shot on phyphor did not go off the day I died
That was me! I did that!
And thanks for letting us know HeavyVillain was betraying us, gave me a good half hour of being pissed off and thinking of how we were going to deal with him, only to have someone else kill him that night.

I did not do much except get in contact with warban in the beginning , find infidel and feed his name to warban, then seer a bunch of Pinnacle Guild. I also did the final seer on stever777, so there was no convincing warban.
Not having an attack or defense in a game like this left me feeling super vulnerable all game and I was out of the network entirely (rightly so as warban had not confirmed me).
I was hoping the Arcadians would attack me on the last night to spare alpha or beta team but meh.
Fun game all around and now some of the results make more sense with a few abilities showing.
Void Slayer on
He's a shy overambitious dog-catcher on the wrong side of the law. She's an orphaned psychic mercenary with the power to bend men's minds. They fight crime!
I felt bad about the HV thing until I found out that it wasn't pinnacle who killed him. He would have been converted and guarded by the next night anyway, especially so since Bale was killed.
edit: we also would have had the entire list of Arcadians at that point, the game would have been over one night sooner.

I am glad Alegis died for being party to my death!
I would have won if alpha team died but at that point Munkus could win without that and there were more villagers to win so gg, letting you all have it.
I picked out non-villager targets for like everything.

I learned a lot during this Phalla, I am pretty pumped about taking my mistakes and being a better player next time.

I'm trying to think of anything I would've done differently to win this game. Obviously calling out Alegis and trying to feed him to Murderbot did not go as I expected, but it was actually a net gain that revealed several non-Alpha team names as well as giving us an extra kill.
So the only thing I think I would've done differently is to completely ignore the Experiments. We could've used the kill instead of converting HeavyVillain Day One, as his powers were worthless and he was as trustworthy as a chocolate hammer.

Heavy Villain was just the worst experiment to pick to convert. He collected win conditions, rather than overwriting them, so he chose to stick with survival, and saw pinnacle as his best shot. He never went against his Arcadian win conditions, though, he wouldn't give up peccavi's name until he was converted to Pinnacle.
his power was also to copy someone else's which was awesome. He repaired me the second night, and then was a seer/redirecrtor from copying Infidel. Having two seers in your group is, uh, pretty awesome.

I'm confused by the Infidel picking great targets thing. Dude was dead on Day 3, how many targets could he have picked?
Posts
Day 1: Placeholder attack on Phyphor, decided to change and arrange a hit on TheLawinator
Day 2: Attacked and arranged a hit on Daius, recommended seering Teucrian. Supported Infidel in voting Gumpy.
Then I got murdered by the Arcadians.
Good times.
