Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Night 1
After the goons left, the emerald claw set in his ring pulsed with a faint light. The mayor's ghost sat patiently within his crystalline home, drumming his fingers. He had gotten involved in the underworld so he could have a piece of the dragon, a humble shard by which he could ensure that his legacy would carry on. He had once told a priest of Imhotep that he was not the only one who dabbled in the supernatural, and his morbid curiousity had paid off when he least expected it.
He had let his lawyer handle the affairs of his material belongings, his only stipulation being that any cash found on his property be discreetly donated to poorhouses. He had no doubt that the lawyer, being the selfish and ambitious young man that he was, would claim everything for himself. He didn't have respect for any taboos, either, which ensured that he would have no stipulations against putting the ring on. Finally, he had blue eyes, so the glow of possession would be difficult to notice.
As the glow faded, the silver snake that wrapped around the late Ganurath's finger now found that it had, rather than an emerald, a sapphire secured within its mouth.

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Night 1
As I walked down the street to Lucky's I heard several rumors. Rumors that a Capone had been captured and killed attempting to infiltrate the hospital staff. Rumors that the capones had taken their revenge in the form of killing our mayor. Rumors that the capones might be doing these things to intimidate a new gang in town. I was sick of rumors, I wanted the truth, I wanted Al Capone behind bars, I wanted a sandwich which actually had cheese on it this time. But at the moment I couldn't get any of these things, which was why I was heading to Lucky's. At Lucky's there were often people who paid good money to know the rumors.

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Night 1
Point at Uncle Festy. A trend I've noticed is for wolves to point at other wolves on Days (especially Day 1) when their point doesn't matter, so that they look innocent if that wolf is later lynched.
It's not much of one, but it's an idea. Of course, if anyone has other theories, those are likely to be a better choice...

Celeste sighed and slipped on her long gloves, pulling them all the way up to her elbows. It was cold, and the gloves kept her from having to actually touch anything on her way to Lucky's. It had been quiet the day before, and quiet that night. That meant only one thing - the Mob was out and about. And sure enough, this morning, a mobster caught, a citizen killed. She sighed - death was bad for business.
Celeste slipped on her favorite red dress and headed down to the bar. At least at Lucky's there were people to talk to, and usually someone up for a quickie in the bathroom. But there was always something to see and news to hear. On her way out, she grabbed a white scarf and wrapped it around her neck.
She spots a guy who stiffed her once - Kerfuffle Mach. She flips him the bird and keeps walking, her boot heels clicking in perfect rhythm on the sidewalk.

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Night 1
A man stood in a dark corner. The man was rather unimpressive at first glance, and not many would ever glance at him a second time. His clothes concealed most of him and his posture and attitude hinted at a wholly unremarkable person, living his life in a slum, thoroughly fed up with his life but lacking the skills and ambition for anything better. But if anyone happened to notice his eyes, they were sharp and kept watching the passing people carefully.
These eyes of his found someone. Jontom Xire. He studied the man carefully and then he seemed to be lost in thought, almost forgetting to check the next person coming in.

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Day 1
Trixie once again nailed h** target, as so many before, without error. If there was a bast tracker in the city, no, in the state, it obvious who would claim that title.
Again, Trixie's desk was liberally littered with photos, scoops, results of years of experience in the job. There was no doubt that members of the mob were all there. Now, it was only a matter of time until they were all lynched.
Alas, the police was lazy, the judges slow; only one of these monsters could be hanged in a day. After a bit, of hesitating, Trixie picked one photo.
Those who try to obstruct justice are those I call evil; I'm justice. Only the mafia would dare to raise its hand against justice; that hand will be hacked out and cast into the flames.

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Day 1
O'Connell pauses outside the house, watching for a moment. He hadn't meant to be away for so long...well, standing around never got a man (or a ghost) anything, now did it? And so he heads up to the porch, and, after a moment's hesitation, phases through the partly-open door and inside.

Liriel stood at the sink washing dishes from last week. She scrubbed at the dirty dishes furiosly, trying to clean them. That's when she felt the temperature drop a few degrees in the room. She stopped scrubbing but didn't turn around.

Faerie quickly packs a bag.
We have to go check on Auntie and that creep, Albert. Get your coat. The train leaves in an hour. When I bought the tickets from Noir Cat, I was told to get to the station early. They are barely stopping this days out of fear!

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Day 2
There were always people with something to hide... Especially in this town. I certainly had some skeletons I'd rather not let people know about... I'd been somebody once, but wasn't now, and it was just easier if everyone always thought that I was a nothing. Safer. Quieter. But darned if you didn't have to check the other nothings for people who were a lot more than they seemed...
But even if I'm nothing, not anyone, I still figure I ought to think for myself. It's all I've got left, you know? But there are those who try to be nothing and not think for themselves... They blend in right well... Might even confuse them for the bench they sit on... No better way to hide, until someone comes looking for someone trying too hard to look like nobody. Then you get hit. Fast.
Somebody ought to tell Doseki about this rule of thumb. Might save his hide someday. But being that person would only draw attention to me. Better to lie low and let no one figure out where they've heard my name before...
But things are going to get rough around here, and I'd rather they pass me by when they do. They won't. But I'd rather that they would. Wouldn't we all like that?"Chess, like love, like music, has the power to make men happy." --Siegbert Tarrasch

Well, its been a short time since I arrived in the city, but I have a job now. Making sandwiches, a simple job, but a job.
One customer keeps saying I keep forgeting the cheese on his sandwiche, but I'm not.
Stupid iceddragons, clearly looking to get free food out of him.Last edited by ThePhantom; 2009-02-12 at 07:41 PM.

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Day 2
Hm.
Just skimming yesterday, it sorta looks like Queenfange (or possibly Jontom, though I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt as it was supposedly a quick post) was pushing the Murska counterbandwagon. Also, she's new, so is more likely to not know that pushing the bandwagon opposite a wolf makes you suspicious.

Re: Mafia IX Game Thread - St Valentines Massacre - Day 2
Most cities are like most dames, love them and they'll love you back. But this city isn't like that. This city is a bitch.
Rilik, Private Eye stumbles out of an alleyway. He's a little dirty and smells vaguely of cheap nonalcoholic liquor. Most people would think that the lush spent the evening snoozing in a random alleyway. Well, most people would be right.
My nightly stakeout of this suspicious alleyway was inconclusive. The scurrying of rats filled my ears like the sounds of nails on a chalkboard. I held out my hat in deference to the good citizens of this city but all I got was idle greetings and change.
I shoved the change into my pockets like a man stuffing himself for his last meal on earth. My boots scuffed the ground with the sound of a car screeching to a halt.
Then I saw the body. He dangled from the rope like some cheap puppet. Like the kind you'd buy at a nickel and dime store for a quarter. One of a cute cartoon character that your little sibling had decided to ugly up a bit.
Rilik glances at Fin's corpse swaying from the gallows. He lights a smoke and takes a long drag. He washes it down with a long drought form his hip flask.
The smoke drifted from my deathstick, obscuring my face and stinging my eyes. It clouded my vision like cancerous fog on a cloudy day. Maybe this is all that this city is.
After twenty minutes of internal monologue in the main city square Rilik draws, levels, and cocks his gun. He points it at- (to be determined after I create an Excel spreadsheet of people's votes to try and come up with a coherent reason to accuse someone).

James was also on his way to Lucky's. And he was very confused as to why a woman would randomly give him the finger. He didn't think he knew her. Oh well. Some people are just angry a lot.
On his way, James noticed iceddragons near an old building. Kinda gave him the heebie-jeebies. He started walking quicker to get past.
