[center][img]https://i.imgur.com/AYxMZVm.png[/img][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=4]"... I'm back." I didn't know what was colder - the strange, lonely chill that permeated the air, seeping right down to my very core, or the almost complete lack of response. My eyes linger on the gorgeous figure before me, even as my brain screamed at me to stop. Every bit of logic would recognize that this is a bad idea. But the longing I had refused to stay put within my traitorous heart, my gaze betraying all that should have been so obvious to anyone else. [i]So why doesn't she see it? [/i] [color=#584dff]"Ah, my loyal partner,"[/color] the goddess addressed me as she always did, in the same way that never failed to make my heart flutter. Yet, the same voice that I've grown so fond of was the same to send piercing daggers through my chest - she didn't even bother [i]turning around[/i] this time. [i]Do I matter so little to her?[/i] [color=#584dff]"Have you brought our visitors?"[/color] I nodded stiffly, perhaps forgetting that she couldn't see me - or perhaps, I was always in denial. Regardless, she seemed to take my silence as a yes. [color=#584dff]"Excellent. I know I could always count on you."[/color] She turned to face me then, a smile on her face - one that I know to be unnatural. There was no mirth in her expression, joy absent in her hollow eyes, her visage twisted by nothing but a persistent ache for something out of reach. A feeling I knew all too well. [color=#584dff]"Look, the pen was nothing special,"[/color] she spat, hatred clouding her already darkened eyes. She held up a quill, a tint of red at the tip of its white feather. The only hint that she had clenched her fist around it until its wicked point dug into her skin. [color=#584dff]"If a pen that's all she needs to make everyone believe in a "happy ending..."[/color] She laughed, the sound just as rattling and heartbreaking as her plastic expressions. [color=#584dff]"Oh, I'm about to do [i]her job[/i] better than she ever did."[/color] She got up slowly, every one of her movements forever graceful. For just a brief moment, her eyes met mine - the slightest hint of a genuine smile coloring her features. The surge of pain in my heart almost overwhelmed me - that was all I wanted, wasn't it? To have her look at me in the same way, without needless rage looming over her? Every part of me screamed that it was wrong - that I was a weakling for running away from the truth. [color=#584dff]"Thank you for your hard work, partner. I'll handle the rest of today."[/color] Yet, the truth was that the mere [i]thought[/i] of her feeling genuine happiness was enough for me to cling onto this foolish dream. I looked into the distance with a blank stare as the visitors approached, completely oblivious to the conflict that now plagued this realm. I hope I had not doomed them.

Are you ready to live out your fantasies and reach your happily ever after? Take on your new forms and face the world, bathed in the light of my magnificence...[/size] [center][emoji=rainbow star 2 size=1][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=5][u]This game is scheduled to start on [b]11 May[/b] (Sunday), but the start date may be shifted depending on how fast the game fills. [/u][/size] [size=4]This game is a sequel to [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/forga/3233514/1]Legends & The Legendary[/url], but you do not need to have participated in the previous game to join/understand this one.

[center][img]https://i.imgur.com/FjoBfil.png[/img][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=5][u]How To Join[/u][/size] [font=book antiqua][size=4]You [b]MUST have a Discord account[/b] to be a player/sub! If you don't have one and still wish to play, [b]please do inform me privately[/b] so I can make arrangements for you. If you have signed up as a player, please send me via DMs your [b][color=purple]3 preferred names* AND preferred animal/creature forms**[/b]! [u]Do not reveal your choices to anyone before the game[/u]! *your chosen character name should [b]NOT be instantly recognizable[/b] (so not your username/common known name(s)!) **these can range from real animals (cats, dogs etc.) to mythical creatures (unicorns, dragons etc.). your choice will not determine alignment/abilities, merely how you appear in the story! [center][img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6kg6r3b1h333p6k/arcanemidsmall.png[/img][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=5][u]Basics[/u][/size] [font=book antiqua][size=4]This is a [b]non-RP, role-madness, semi-b*stard[/b] mafia game with a closed setup. Every player will have at least one ability. There can be hidden information but the [b]information you receive will always be truthful.[/b] There is [b]at least one third-party[/b] with their own wincon. The flavor of this game will be heavily story-based but [b]there will be no flavor hints[/b]. [b]Days last 48 hours[/b] and [b]nights last 24 hours[/b]. Players are not allowed to speak in thread for night phase. [b]Lockdown happens at 0700 FR time[/b] (+ a few minutes occasionally, but never early), and the day/night phase will begin shortly after, lasting until the next lockdown is made. [b]No votes/actions submitted after lockdown will be counted.[/b] [center][img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6kg6r3b1h333p6k/arcanemidsmall.png[/img][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=5][u]Anticlaim Mechanics[/u][/size] [size=4]This game utilizes [b]anticlaim[/b], a game mechanic that discourages claiming/hinting at your role. You are [b]allowed[/b] to make claims in thread (barring copy/pasting rolecard info), but beware the consequences! [center][img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6kg6r3b1h333p6k/arcanemidsmall.png[/img][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=5][u]Voting/Elimination[/u][/size] [size=4]Voting is [b]anonymous[/b] in this game by default - all votes are to be submitted in your [b]private channels[/b]. At the end of the day, a [b]vote tally[/b] will be included alongside the elimination results. [b]No elimination is a valid vote option[/b], which is different from abstaining/not voting at all. A [b]minimum of 2 votes[/b] are required for a successful elimination. The player receiving the [b]most votes out of the total[/b] will be eliminated. If a tie occurs, RNG determines the elimination between those who received the most votes. If a tie occurs between a player or no elimination, [b]the player always gets eliminated[/b]. Role-flips, if successful, [b]are always accurate.[/b] Normal flips include full role name and alignment. [center][img]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6kg6r3b1h333p6k/arcanemidsmall.png[/img][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=5][u]The Mod[/u][/size] [size=4]As with the prequel, the return of the talking NPC mod is back! The mod (Storia) occupies a player slot and [b]can be targeted by votes and actions[/b]. While she is alive, she will sometimes speak in thread as a character, leaving cryptic remarks or simply encouraging your progress, and you are free to interact with her (like an NPC) in turn. [b]Eliminating her in any way silences her permanently.*[/b] [b]She will never give away information that directly benefits either side[/b], and does not have a wincon or any active abilities, but her presence (or absence) can affect the game, so choose wisely on how to deal with her! The mod will also [b]never lie, but she can withhold information as she pleases.[/b] *The mod (assuming her game role) will speak in stylized, properly formatted text (such as in official announcements and flavor posts) for the posts she makes when she is alive. If I’m speaking to you directly as my own person, I will type in all lowercase with no formatting - in this case, all my posts are to be taken seriously. My death in the game will not impact my other responsibilities (action processing, flavor writing etc.) and I will still be part of the thread as normal - you will simply lose the ability to draw responses from me as my game self.

[center][img]https://i.imgur.com/zzGKc55.png[/img][/center] [font=book antiqua][size=4]- [b]Please do take a moment to read the rules[/b]! They exist so everyone can have a more enjoyable time. - Alongside the game’s rules themselves, always remember to follow all of Flight Rising’s own rules and COC. - Treat everyone in this game (and out of it!) with respect. That means having basic etiquette - no name-calling, personal insults or any form of bullying is allowed, period. - Remember that [b]there is a fine line between being aggressive and outright attacking another player[/b] (notice the difference between claiming “this theory is illogical” and “you’re dumb for making this conclusion.” the first one is allowed, second is not) - There is a [b]minimal activity requirement of 3 posts per day phase[/b] for each player. I understand that life can get in the way sometimes, but try not to let it impede the experience for others as a whole. If you know that you have to be away for a certain day(s) in advance, [b]please inform me so I can make an exception for you[/b]. -> In the same vein, please inform me ASAP if you feel like you are no longer able to keep up or actively play the game, and I shall call in a replacement. - [b]Mod’s word is final[/b]. Reminding others of the game rules are fine - but please do not try to excessively minimod or take over the game otherwise. If you’re uncomfortable with anything, or have queries at any point of the game, please inform me privately - communication is key! - Cheating and any form of game-throwing are strictly prohibited - if you are caught [b]discussing game events outside of the main thread, deliberately finding loopholes around the rules, disobeying your rolecard information on purpose[/b] or otherwise ruining the game, [b]you will be removed from the game immediately[/b]. - [b]You are not allowed to edit or delete a post[/b] after you’ve made it unless you have my explicit, publicly worded permission to do so. Please just ask - I will usually say yes if it is not game-changing. - Posting on thread [b]during night-phase[/b] is [b]not allowed[/b]. - You are [b]not allowed to copy-and-paste any direct mod-to-player communications or any part of your rolecard[/b] on the game thread. - Please play by the spirit of the rules - they exist to make the experience a fun and memorable one for every player. At the same time, remember that in the end this is just a game - have fun and try not to take anything too seriously! I operate by a [b]three-strike system[/b].* I will gently remind you the first time you outright break a rule, firmly warn you on the second, and either roleblock, modkill or replace you on the third depending on the circumstances. *Cheating and severe offenses (such as any discriminatory posts or outright trolling) are exceptions to this system, where an outright ban and removal of the game is issued. In the same way, minor infractions (such as making a post after the day phase is over) will be prodded and called out, but no severe action is taken unless the mod’s words are deliberately disobeyed.
