This list is divided into three categories: Active, Conditional and Static abilities
===Read this first===
* All games should be reviewed by at least one person before being run. Please use [http://www.mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5379 The New Set-Up Review Thread] for this purpose
* All games should have a majority town-aligned faction and some number of anti-town roles.
* Don't use too many power roles. A good rule of thumb is to have at least 50% of the town have no abilities.
* Your first game should be simple. Really simple. Yes, that simple. No, it won't be boring. Yes, I mean it.
* Do not use Jesters.
* If you have comments, suggestions, or found a problem please send me a message. I'll be happy to talk to you.
 
===Information===
The list of win conditions is divided into four categories: Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Not to be used.
 
 
The list of abilities is divided into three categories: Active, Conditional and Static abilities
* Active abilities are those which you can perform
* Active abilities are those which you can perform
* Conditionals give the conditions (duh) that govern the Active Abilities
* Conditionals modify Active Abilities
* Static abilities are passive traits
* Static abilities are passive traits
All information contained in [Brackets] is replacable with information relevant to your game.
== Win Conditions ==
=== Common ===
;Town: You win if all threats to the town are eliminated and at least one town-aligned player is alive.
;Mafia: You win if at least one member of your group is alive and all other players are dead (or if nothing can prevent the same).
''Note: A mafia group typically shares a kill. More than one Mafia faction can exist. All factions' win conditions are mutually exclusive. Werewolf is interchangeable with Mafia.''
=== Uncommon ===
;Serial Killer: You win if only you are alive (or if nothing can prevent the same).
''Note: Has a kill.''
;Survivor: You win if you are alive when the game ends.
''Note: Players with this win condition do not affect other win conditions in any way. A survivor can win with any group. Unpopular with many players, and the players should be warned about the possibility of survivors in your game.''
;Cult: You win if at least one member of your group is alive and all other players are dead (or if nothing can prevent the same).
''Note: A cult starts with only one member, who has some form of the Recruit ability. Cults are a polarised subject, and the players should be warned about the possibility of cults in your game.''
;Lyncher: [Player] is your lynchee. You win when [Player] is lynched. If [Player] is night killed, you lose.
''Note: Some variations cause the lyncher to become town-aligned, should [Player] die. The lynchee is not informed that they are the lynchee.''
===Rare===
;Hunter: You win when [Players] are dead.
''Has a kill. Extremely hard to play.''
;Pacifist: You win when there is a no-lynch.

Revision as of 21:18, 27 May 2009

The list of Lord Gurgi's Standarised Role PMs (a.k.a. the "What does Nightkill-immune Miller Vig mean?") is a comprehensive list of actions, conditions and passive traits of usual roles in MafiaScum. It includes useful PMs and notes for the aspiring (or the forgetful) mod.

How to use these PMs

Read this first

  • All games should be reviewed by at least one person before being run. Please use The New Set-Up Review Thread for this purpose
  • All games should have a majority town-aligned faction and some number of anti-town roles.
  • Don't use too many power roles. A good rule of thumb is to have at least 50% of the town have no abilities.
  • Your first game should be simple. Really simple. Yes, that simple. No, it won't be boring. Yes, I mean it.
  • Do not use Jesters.
  • If you have comments, suggestions, or found a problem please send me a message. I'll be happy to talk to you.

Information

The list of win conditions is divided into four categories: Common, Uncommon, Rare, and Not to be used.


The list of abilities is divided into three categories: Active, Conditional and Static abilities

  • Active abilities are those which you can perform
  • Conditionals modify Active Abilities
  • Static abilities are passive traits


All information contained in [Brackets] is replacable with information relevant to your game.


Win Conditions

Common

Town
You win if all threats to the town are eliminated and at least one town-aligned player is alive.


Mafia
You win if at least one member of your group is alive and all other players are dead (or if nothing can prevent the same).

Note: A mafia group typically shares a kill. More than one Mafia faction can exist. All factions' win conditions are mutually exclusive. Werewolf is interchangeable with Mafia.


Uncommon

Serial Killer
You win if only you are alive (or if nothing can prevent the same).

Note: Has a kill.


Survivor
You win if you are alive when the game ends.

Note: Players with this win condition do not affect other win conditions in any way. A survivor can win with any group. Unpopular with many players, and the players should be warned about the possibility of survivors in your game.


Cult
You win if at least one member of your group is alive and all other players are dead (or if nothing can prevent the same).

Note: A cult starts with only one member, who has some form of the Recruit ability. Cults are a polarised subject, and the players should be warned about the possibility of cults in your game.


Lyncher
[Player] is your lynchee. You win when [Player] is lynched. If [Player] is night killed, you lose.

Note: Some variations cause the lyncher to become town-aligned, should [Player] die. The lynchee is not informed that they are the lynchee.


Rare

Hunter
You win when [Players] are dead.

Has a kill. Extremely hard to play.


Pacifist
You win when there is a no-lynch.


Loving Father
You win if [Player] is alive at the end of the game.


Not to be Used

Jester
You win when you are lynched. You lose if you die by any other means.

Note: Do not use this. It is listed only for purposes of completeness.
