Wak... ...p..

Wake up!



Ah, there you are! Welcome to my little game!

Confused about what's going on? No need to worry, I, The Riddler, will remind you!

It all started last night. There was a major break out at The Elizabeth Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane, home to the worst criminals in Gotham City. Of course, Batman and his lackeys were called to the scene. But even the Dark Knight himself could not predict the brilliance that is The Riddler! I cleverly devised a trap not only for the Bat and his companions, but the escaped inmates as well! I have kidnapped each and every one of them in my secret hideout, where at last it will be known that I, The Riddler, am the greatest mind alive! So allow me to pose this riddle to you: How does this story relate to you?

The answer? Well, YOU are all the victims I have kidnapped for this game, of course!

The goal of this game is simple: You "heroes" must kill every escaped Arkham Asylum inmate, as they attempt to do the same to you! Whomever manages to kill every member of the opposing team will be allowed to leave! Of course there are some of you who don't like to cooperate in teams at all. You'll have to manage around them as well! The catch? Your identity will remain a secret!

Here are the rules:
1. Heroes: You must kill every non-hero, including third-party members. Villains: You must kill every hero and third-party member. Third-party: You will have your own special win conditions.

2. My game will be split into Day segments and Night segments. During the Day, open discussion is allowed. Players may cast a vote to lynch a suspicious person and eliminate them immediately by majority vote. Immediately afterwards will follow a Night segment. During this time, NO POSTS ARE ALLOWED. The villains will gather together in private and discuss who they will murder during the Night, as well as who will commit the murder.

3. Editing your posts is FORBIDDEN! If you have something else to add after your initial post, simply post again or wait for someone else to reply!

4. Many of you will have specific roles. At Night, you may use these roles as indicated by myself by PMing me. You may only perform your role once per Night.

5. You will be allowed one real-time week to deliberate on who to lynch during the Day. If no vote is decided by then, no one is lynched!

6. Players who are killed will be allowed to make one final post, but no more!

7. ABSOLUTELY NO METAGAMING. This includes taking screenshots of PMs, talking about the game in other threads(aside from irrelevant comments), using posts from other threads as "evidence", etc. Anyone caught doing this will be eliminated immediately!

Now then, let me reveal those of you who, ahem, "volunteered" for this game!

I believe that's everyone, all sixteen of you!

Now then, are you starting to remember who YOU are?

(I'd like to play with sixteen people, but I'll remove some roles if there aren't enough people signed up.)

I'm batman.

I mean in.

Count me in!

Wait wait wait this game description doesn't make any sense
The heroes never actually kill the villains! Shouldn't the description be that if a (mafia) is "killed" they get knocked out and arrested by the Gotham PD instead, to be sent back to Arkham at a later date?

Also I'm in.

I'm wanna join because I'm batman

you know what yeah i'll join

C'mon, vamanos!

Teeheeeheehee, so many Bats.
I feel like a kid in a candy store. Before slaughtering the owners.

Ah, yes, you mean your "Hero's Code", in which you use your foolishly contrived morals to justify your own weakness? Never fear, I, The Riddler, have tapped into your brains and released that inhibition from your psyche, assuming it was even there in the first place! You no longer have to worry about feeling any remorse for your deeds.....

Additionally, it occurs to me that I perhaps didn't explain The Joker's role in as much detail as would suit your primitive minds. Three things I wish to add:
1. The Joker's role is a Night Action, but it can be played at any time. The Joker can give someone a Joker Bomb at Night or during the Day, whichever suits his fancy! If given at Night, the player will be alerted by PM that they have a Joker Bomb the following Day. However, if anyone who gives a Joker Bomb to anyone else during the Day, I will make a public announcement about it. No Joker Bombs will explode at Night.
2. Anyone can give a Joker Bomb to anyone. However, the Joker is the only one who can give Joker Bombs to people at Night. He can even give himself a bomb!
3. If a Joker Bomb explodes after a Lynch is decided, Night will not begin until the bomb explodes.

These will be added to the OP.

count me in Marcy

Thank god, now I don't have to worry about letting you guys getting away again.
Because I'm Batman.

What, no Nightwing? Laaame.

I vote that Alfred should be the Granny.

Sure, he can't go out and do much, but if you come into his neck of the woods, he will fuck you up.

actually, the image he posted for Robin is after he becomes nightwing...oh god why do I know this
