A Taste of Blood ~ Chapter 1 ~


A Taste of Blood
Chapter 1: For Whom The Bell Tolls


It is late in the evening in the Walsuprnacht region. Just outside of the village of Bane a shadowy figure walks alone. He is dressed in clothing traditionally worn by monks from the far east, but he is no monk.
As he walks into town, the hair on the back of everyone’s neck stands on end, the air gets colder, and the wind stands still. This was to be the least of their worries. Soon thereafter mysterious things started happening; people started disappearing, people started dying. It was several weeks before someone even uttered the word… Vampire.




A Taste of Blood is unlike any game you might have played on neoseeker. It is very much user and forum involved.

There are 3 towns in the Walspurnacht region of our world, Bowin, Aethor, and Bane. You will use your Ability Points to travel between them all. Each town may hold special events and abilities depending on your allegiance and archtype/character type.




The Archtypes/Characters

    Holy Sermon (2 AP): Halts action of a vampire in same town. (Failure if target is non-vampire aligned with no consequences)
PI
    Investigate (2 AP) : Can follow suspected cult or vamp aligned player in same town. If any cult/vamp specific actions are taken, target will be exposed. 1D6 chance of being kidnapped/killed respectively.
Night Watchman

    Patrol (2 AP): If an attack takes place in the current town he is in, player has a 1D6 chance of witnessing the attack.

Vampires

    Turn a Human (3 AP): Has a 1D6 chance of turning a target non-vampire player into a Fledgling Vamp. Has a 1d12 chance of killing the target.

    The Vampire Lord knows all vampires, as well as all cult members (via friendship with the cult leader).
    Glamour (2 AP): Has a 1D2 chance of controlling a cult member’s actions next turn. (PM’d to GM). Has 1D4 chance of exposure.
    Demand Sacrifice (3 AP): Known cult member must offer a kidnapped townie to be killed, or kill himself.

Cult

    Note- All Cult Members Know eachother


Fledgling Cult Member
    Attend Leadership Camp (3 AP): Lose a turn, become Basic Cult Member. (Note- Only achievable in Aethor, also If Cult Leader is present in the town, player does not lose a turn)
Basic Cult Member
    Recruit (3 AP): Has a 1D6 chance of recruiting a non-cult member into the cult ranks as a Fledgling Cult Member. Has a 1D6 chance of exposure. If target is a vampire no action, though you are exposed to that vampire.
    Kidnap (3 AP): Kidnap target in town. The target player will lose a turn. 1D6 chance of failure with a 1D6 chance of exposure.
Cult Leader
    Knows the Vampire Lord.
    Make Request (3 AP): If in same town as Vampire Lord, can ask vampire lord to kill any other player in town. (Up to Vampire Lord if he will go through with it, at no AP cost to the VL player, though he risks 1D6 chance of exposure).




Gameplay

All actions need to be PM’d to the GM (That’s me for this game) by 12:00 Midnight EST (GMT-5) in order for them to count for the next day’s turn, PM them to me in order not to expose yourself in the thread (obv) things such as voting however will be done in the forum itself. Feel free to roleplay and discuss amongst yourselves in character and what not in the thread as well.

Lynching
On Tuesdays and Thursdays the town will get together and lynch a suspected Vampire. All members, regardless of allegiance, will vote in their actions on the day prior by prefacing their post with "VOTE", in all capitals, minus the quotes, followed by a name.

Note- When vampires are killed, via lynching or other means, their bodies will not decay as quickly as others, and thus, in 2 days time, you will know if the deceased was a vampire or not.


Traveling
You may travel to one of the other cities during your turn. You can travel by horseback (1 AP) and move at the end of your turn, or travel by train (2 AP) and move at the beginning of your turn.


The Stack
  1. Voting / Basic Actions / Movement (by Train)
  2. Town Specific Actions
  3. Murders/Kidnappings
  4. Movement (by Horseback)


AP

Ability Points/Action Points are achieved by an extremely difficult calculation algorithm concocted by Deathsythe.

Just kidding.

The last digit of your direct message # determines your AP for the next turn.

An even number generates 3 AP, while an odd number generates 2 AP. A post # ending in 5 or a 0 generates 4 AP.

Simple right?

Note- for the first turn, your AP will be calculated based on the post you used to sign up.




Conditions for Victory
Townie:
All Vampires have been destroyed, the number of non-cult players > the number of cult-players.

Vampire:
All non-cult, non-vampire players have been killed.

Cult:
The number of cult players > the number of non-cult players (minus vampires) by half the total players. (75%)
A Vampire victory can also be said to be a sudo-victory for the cult.




Signups:
code
[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b]
[b]Gender (In case name is androgynous):[/b]


You will all receive your character details and archtypes once we have enough players. We are aiming for 15, so tell all your friends.

I was going for character names actually.

Also, this goes without say, if you have any preliminary questions, ask away, I will be more than happy to answer them
