Wrestling (Main Event) Mafia

[Zoomzip]

All players will be asked to create their own wrestlers during an extended Night 0 using a pretty simple template, and subsequently receive alignments. Players will also be asked to identify their pre-existing relationships with other players through a series of questions such as "Which players coached you into how to take a fall?" "Which player is your former tag-team partner?" "Which player interfered and made it hard for your to get your attentions heard by the writing staff?" The answers to these questions will be made public to all players. Some of these answers may create special game mechanics, which will only be known to the person who answered the question.

All role mechanics will be built around the wrestling concept of ridiculous drama and shenanigans.

During Night Phases, all players may make one post in thread as a "Promo" -- Sometimes this will be required to activate role powers, sometimes it is just for flavor, but if you ever wanted to call someone out at Night, now is your chance.

Players: 9 to 11
Potential Third Parties

Is the flavour game-relevant, or just for fun?

[Zoomzip]

Flavor is just for fun except the relationship questions you would answer.

Will players know the mechanical impact of these relationships before they answer the questions, or only after?

The form is standardized except for the relationship questions, which will vary from player to player (though with some overlap). Everyone's form, stripped of any mechanics notes, will be published on Night 0/Day 1 start.

[Crunkus_old]

vary from player to player randomly, or possibly according to role/alignment?

vary from player to player randomly, or possibly according to role/alignment?
