Please read through everything carefully, it's quite complicated. And do let me know whether this should end up going in Mafia Variants or in Other Games. Oh, also, the idea for this setup (ie - killing tools passing between players) came from Syras and probably Zephyr from back when we had the first Death Note game on Nuzlocke. Kudos to them.

The players are divided into three groups that do not necessarily decide their allegiance but rather how their allegiance is decided. :V

What does it mean by "no result" for SnowRemnant? Does he show up vailla?

The only female in the room (poor girl) means that she is naturally the most medically proficient somehow.

Pfffffft. All the sense is not made.

I like the execution, though there is one thing that bothers me. No result coming up for investigating Snow may as well be a result for Snow, since the only other possibility in that case is that the investigator was hooked by Syras. This is, of course, a minute possibility, so I wonder what other powers we could have Snow use instead of granting a no-result to investigations. Perhaps a Vanilla result, or a random result?

Also, this was my concept, and in response to your PM, yes, I am okay with you using it. I'm too busy to host right now, so someone may as well.

Thanks a lot Zephyr.

And what I was going for with Snow was something similar to what happens if a town has a Miller. A little something to confuse the investigators. The chance is miniscule, but still possible. It still allows investigators to identify who Snow is, but it's just with a little risk that it's being done.

It does rather seem like getting a no result early on in the game is pretty much a dead ringer for Snow. Late game, it could be possible to get away with, maybe.

I see nothing about this that doesn't make sense.

I feel like getting no result period is going to pretty much always be a giveaway for Snow. I know that if I were Talon, I'd lynch someone based on a no result because there's a pretty significant chance of it being Snow instead of me being hooked. It's like people have been saying: getting no result is basically getting a result for Snow, except in the very rare circumstance that you done got hooked. I feel like it would be easy enough to say that Snow shows up as vanilla upon being investigated.

Alternatively, you could change the ability entirely to avoid making it so that Snow can pretty much never contact any of the other Kira. At the current moment, none of the other Kira have a way of getting in contact with Snow.

Hmm alright. It would probably be best to go with the second option to allow Snow to get in contact with other Kiras. I'm not quite sure what to put down for him though.

Eh, while I have just sort of gone with what Under proposed for the alignments for people, some roles haven't quite gone down too well. And thus with some prodding, I've decided to throw everything up in the air and redo the roles. We'll see how that goes.

The main problem with Snow, as I see it, is that if Syras is already dead, then Snow will be a dead give-away. Syras is the only thing preventing him from automatically designated as ''Snow''. Personally, I'd say you should either make him a random role, or show up as a random. That way, he could become a ''Remnant'' of another role. Ohohoho. c:

This is pretty much my train of thought as well. I don't know that in this environment, you can really get away with someone getting a no result without it being telling.
