Default Assassins III: Taking Back the Throne!! (Game Started)

ASSASSINS III: Taking Back the Throne

Narrators: Lex-kat & Trixie

As Lord Iames Osari lay asleep his with his current lover by his side, he dreams a peaceful dream.

He sees himself in an apple orchard, looking all the beautiful fruits of his labor.

As he passes each apple, he sees either the face of one of his numerous lovers, the children that they've bared him, or his most promising assassins he has trained, Coplantor, Murska the Lesser, Shrike, and Tatianna.

But as he passes one of the trees, something doesn't look quite right to him. He stops and looks again. It's the face of his current lover. The seventeen year old he just "aquired" the evening before.

She was perfect, in everyway. But, somehow, not here. Not now.

He broke the apple open, and there he saw it. A seed of hate.

But there was something more to this hate. It wasn't the normal look of disgust he first saw, when he would enter the harem to choose one for the evening. There was something more sinister to this seed. Like she knew something he didn't.

+++++++++++++++++

Then the broken apple began to bleed. It wouldn't stop!!

Suddenly Lord Iames awoke with a start. He must still be dreaming, for he still felt the wetness on his hands and lower body.

When he looked down, he found the body of the young girl ripped in two, her dead heart in his hands.

Then he noticed a glint of metal in her hand. A knife?! She had tried to assassinate him as he slept.

But.... Lord Iames Osari, the Assassin Emperor, leapt out of bed and called for his guards to clean up the mess.

He then marched to his tower to consult with his prized treasure. The young oracle he'd found.

They are within, M-m-master. She said quietly. I see nothing but death around you. They are lead by.... former enemies.

Lord Iames glared at her. He knew there was more she wasn't telling him. But he didn't have time to coax it out of her.

He had been infiltrated. He needed to raise the alarm.

Game begins the week of August 24thish.

Since I never actually did any narrating last time, perhaps it's best if I just play this time around. In.

I'll try this one out.

Just checking that I understand, we basically start from scratch again every time we find an assassin, as almost ANYBODY could be an infiltrator? So even if they were "cleared" before by the seer, they aren't any more?

Question: does the sleepers scry as such or as simple villager as long as they have not been activated ?

Correct.

But the count is simple.

1-9= 1 Infiltrator
10-14= 2 Infiltrators
15-19= 3 Infiltrators
20-24= 4 Infiltrators
25-29= 5 Infiltrators
30-34= 6 Infiltrators

and so on, with an equal amount of Masons.

In the last two runs, everyone has found it to be quite balanced.

The first game had one Assassin (Infiltrators this time around), 2 Imperial Guards, and a Concubine (Neutral).

The second game came down to two Assassins and two Refugee Soldiers, and Lord MechaFox (Baner).

I'm hoping this streak continues, as it has made the game fun for most.

The Sleepers will be scried as Imperial Guards.

But, the Power Roles: Baner, Beast, and the Masons, will never be sleepers.

So if the Seer finds them, you can trust they are what they think they are.

I would join this, but the pressures of school likely won't allow time for the intrigue of another werewolf game. I'll be watching from the sidelines though, rooting for the good guys throughout.
Hmm... I wonder how the good guys being the wolves will affect the RP?
