Universal Smash Bros 6: Time Twister [Starts: 4/15]

[Deathslayer7]

OK guys! A bit late but I have not been neglecting this.

ROLES ARE UP! PARTIALLY!

I have posted roles in the good guys, neutrals, and villains section.

Please note:

• There is a lot a lot a lot of lynch control spread out everywhere!
• We have 2 killer roles plus a wolf night kill. I might tone this down to 1.
• More neutrals will be assigned to Team Good and Team Evil. Some might stay there. Not sure yet.
• Comments about any powers that seem overpowered are welcome if they are constructive critcism. Saying XXXX is overpowered and needs to change does not help me. Please explain why and explain what you would do in as much detail as possible.
• See any balance concerns? Let me know!
• I might just ditch the masons this game. Thoughts on this?

Now don't forget to check out the roles before the game.

[Ramsus]

That's the part of my role you chose to keep? *cries*

Flabort's power could easily become really really huge. Two town voiders seems odd. Bladescape and I aren't Villains?

[Lady Serpentine]

Mine got pretty hacked up too... This was the original text:

C'nor, Master of the Wild Hunt:

Once every other day or night, you may set the Hunt to protecting someone; if used during the day phase, any successful lynch against the target is redirected to the first person to vote for them, and if used at night, any powers used against the chosen target other than scries or banes are reflected back on the person who used them.

Once per night, the Hunt can be ordered to kill one target; if that target is baned, there is a 15% chance that the baner will be killed, as though they were a self-sacrificing baner. This power may not be used on the same night that you set the Hunt to protect someone.

In addition to the aforementioned powers, you begin play with the Hunter's Horn, which allows the holder to, once a day or night, cause all votes to go different targets, or randomly redirect power targets, except in the case of seers, in which case they will become fools for the night.

[Ur-Quan]

Mine lost the special twang it had, at least the variant he picked.

Suggestion 1:

Power of the Slaveshield: Every second night, The Ur-Quan goes on and wrecks a planet person with the armada, delivering them an ultimatum. They refuse to become his slaves, so they end up below the Slaveshield, a red pulsating forcefield holding as long as Ur-Quan is living. The captured folks are only able to talk, but unable to:

• Vote
• Use abillities
• Be targeted by abillities
• Be Lynched
• Be Night-killed

They're effectively out of play until Ur-Quan's killed. Ur-Quan wins (if neutral) by getting 6 players down, at which point he just flies off into space, leaving those players desolate - resulting in their death for the game, as they're unable to be saved.

If a part of the wolf team, Ur-Quan wins by survival, and all the goodies in the forcefields will count as dead for all purposes of the wolf team, unless Ur-Quan gets killed, when they return into play.

Suggestion 2:

Armada of Battle Thralls: This ability has a 3 day cooldown. The Ur-Quan goes on and wrecks a planet person with the armada, delivering them an ultimatum. They refuse to become his forcefielded slaves, poor and helpless, and bind themselves to become battle thralls. They change allegiance totally to Ur-Quan's, third, side and they function as a mason group, ever-expanding as long as Ur-Quan is alive. If Ur-Quan dies, they remain a group, but without a purpose.

[usourselves&we]

Was our idea not used or do the 'marks of question' hide the powers of people?

[Deathslayer7]

for the "??????" I'm still undecided upon powers. I also apologize for all the hacking and slashing in advance.

[Vesth]

*sniff* Mine was nerfed!

Now it looks so weak :(

Also, mine power's called The CHOCOLATE BUNNY OF DOoM!!!!!!!!!!!

(with a small o in DOoM)

[Internet Flea]

Surprisingly, my role became more complicated.

[flabort]

Hmm. The third, least powerful option. I'm not surprised.
I am surprised that options were added. My original idea did not include 1/2 votes.

Regardless, have fun with your undead army, whomever gets it.

[Penguinator]

What, doesn't anybody want to be a wolf? I play better when I'm a wolf.

And it's supposed to be Poppa Penguinator, in case anybody cared...

[Ramsus]

Penguinator, the idea for my role was being an Alpha Wolf with a careless Bane and a Fool Scry that pierced disguises. So I can certainly say I wanted to be a wolf.

[Gray Mage]

What, doesn't anybody want to be a wolf? I play better when I'm a wolf.

And it's supposed to be Poppa Penguinator, in case anybody cared...

I didn't know that we could choose the role's aligment. Knowing that, I'd like for it to be a wolf very much, actually.

[otakuryoga]

i would like to get in if it is not full
yes to using my name for a role

[Gray Mage]

One question on bladescape's power, shouldn't it read any living player or to one living player instead of all?

Edit: Noticed that it doesn't work on kills, which was my biggest worry, but I'd also include scries as well. And maybe ED's and Ur-Quan's abilities as well (more Ur's then ED's). And Vesth's. And Runeboundshade, since if the other target is targetted with any of the other abilities it'd have the same problem.

[DarkLightDragon]

Mine turned out pretty cool, I think. Chose the least potentially broken of my ideas and added an interesting tweak to make it a bit better, but reasonably so.

[RuneboundShade]

Nice, although I liked the original version of that power better.....

I guess that one's more balanced though....

(... Here I was hoping I get get my role to have an utterly confusing power.... )

[Gnomish Wanderer]

My role got even more powerful. It was originally only where the player who got the role could make themselves immune to all night special abilities with a 1 night cooldown, but now it's whoever they choose. Neat.

[flabort]

Slight changes and tweaks all around, then.
It'll be interesting to see what the remaining powers are. And if, when there are a few remaining who didn't send ideas, if ideas from other folk get applied to different names.

[TBFProgrammer]

Alright, I'm officially down to a single ghost role. In as a player in addition to role if there is still room/time.

[Deathslayer7]

There is but I'm currently going through a mid-life crisis with my roommate. All the roles will be up on Sunday, and you will have 24 hours (or so) to ask for a role you specifically want and don't want.

After that, on Monday, I will be handing out role PM's.

[Ramsus]

....and then everyone requested to be themselves.

[flabort]

I'm not going to. I want the theoretical reality of fighting myself to take place.

[DarkLightDragon]

I'm not going to make requests. I think it will be more fun to wait and see who I get, and who gets me.

[Lady Serpentine]

I'll probably not make any requests either, unless there's a role that I really hate.

Also, Deathslayer, just to check, was there confusion about the intended time that the redirect of the lynch could be used, or did you intentionally switch it from a day action to a night action?

[TheLaughingMan]

...So does this mean signups are closed?

[Deathslayer7]

...So does this mean signups are closed?

absolutely not. I'll take sign ups till Sunday afternoon. PST.

[TheLaughingMan]

Oh!

Well in that case, count me in!

[Deathslayer7]

Ok. I am now officially closing sign-ups and will get all the roles up within a few hours give or take.

ROLES ARE UP.

You have an unspecified amount of time to request a role you would like and a role you wouldn't like.

[Ramsus]

Couple things:

"The Grimmace - Day Action. Two day cooldown.The victim's role and affiliation is not revealed until he dies, except to him. The bearer of Eternal's role may then disguise himself as the role of the lynched. "

Can you clarifying the "until he dies" part? Does that mean until the Grimmace dies?

Eternal doesn't seem to have a role.

I'm doubtful about &we's rez power. He's the only one with a rez and anyone who gets rezzed is, without interference by another role, certain to be a wolf.

[TBFProgrammer]

I prefer:

Spoiler

Show

Any role. Why else would I post this in the thread for everyone else to see?

I don't wish to have:

Spoiler

Show

Every role. That would be way too overpowered, which is just plain boring. Besides, I'd have to kill myself to win.
