Overview

This is my attempt to create (The Framework for) a Mafia-esque game


Adding Cards

As this is a game meant for everyone to play, I want everyone to have a chance to create cards! These are the rules:

1: Don't add more than 3 roles at a time.

2: Don't make too over powerful roles. (Ex: A Good Guy that instawins the game for Good Guys if it dies or is revealed)

3: Don't make too under powerful roles. (Ex: A Bad Guy who commits suicide at the beginning of the first night)

4: Only change other's roles to fix grammar.

5: Roles shouldn't refer to other roles, as they might not be present in all games.

5.1: If a role has good reason to refer to another role (Ex: "This role can only exist in games with The Vampire"), then it is allowed to refer to it.

6: Use the talk page to suggest edits for this page (excluding roles)

7: Create a Subsection for a new alignment within an overall heading, if your role creates a new alignment. (Ex: The alignment "Blue Dragon" would be a subsection of "Uninformed Minority")

7.1: Neutrals can be ignored for the sake of this

Special Rules

Disregard all rules that apply to Dvorak. (Terminology might still apply)

Players only have 1 card in their hand at time.

One Player is the "Moderator". They do not receive any role cards. This is the Engine of the game, which takes into account all effects that happen at night.

All players have 3 cards, their role card, and a Decision card (Lynch and Pardon) Their role card should always be hidden unless mechanics says otherwise

The Deck

There is no deck.

Mechanics

At the beginning of the game, the Moderator hands out role cards to everyone.

There are 2 parts per cycle, day and night.

During the Morning(Day), players are allowed to say anything that they want to. Players are never allowed to show their card to anyone during this phase, unless the moderator tells them to. During the Afternoon(Day), players vote on who to lynch against conspiracy against the town. Whoever has half or more of the other players voting them becomes the accused and a trial starts. During the Trial(Trial(Day)), the accused player gets a brief time to say why they are innocent. No one else may speak during this time. During the Decision(Trial(Day)), all players aside from the accused may secretly vote on whether to Lynch or Pardon, by giving a card to the Moderator Votes are always secret until the end of the Decision period. Anyone who does not give a card to the moderator before time is up abstains from the vote. If more than half of the votes are Lynch, the accused flips their card over and the day ends. During the Night, everyone closes their eyes. The moderator will tell roles to wake up, and do their night actions, if they have any, then to fall back asleep.

If there are any alignments that wake up with their team, the Moderator will tell the team to wake up instead.

If a player has died, they give the moderator their voting cards to signify that they are dead. If a player is revealed, their card is flipped over, but they retain their voting cards. Dead players are revealed if they are revived, or they have post-death abilities. At any time, a player may look at their role card. If a role card has changed while revealed, then it will become unrevealed (The default state of a role)

If any role has any day abilities, they must first be revealed to use it.

If there is only one remaining alignment (and no Neutrals prevent the game from ending), the game will end with the last alignment as the winner, along with any Neutrals that achieved their goal.

Alignments

There can be a Theoretically infinite amount of alignments in a game. Instead of card Types, there are role alignments. Every role has an alignment A role can only have 1 alignment.

The Main alignments are:

The Uninformed Majority. Their goal is to kill off all players that are not on their team.

The Informed Minority. Their goal is to kill off all players that are not on their team.

The Neutral Killers, who are aligned with only themselves. Their goal is to kill off all players that are on a major team alongside any other Neutral Killers that they can't win with. (Neutral Killers don't have to be Killer types, but they must have the goal that was described before)

The Neutrals, who only win if their winning condition is achieved. It should be on their role card.

These are just generic descriptions of the actual alignments. You can have more than one "Uninformed Majority" in a game, and they would have to kill off other "Uninformed Majority"s.

Types

Role types are a different terminology. This determines what the overall role is aimed at being. A card can only have 1 card type.

There are only 6 role types. They are as follows:

Killer, Offensive, Support, Social, Investigative, and Special.

Game Alterations

If you want to alter your game, you are free to do so. Here are a few suggestions from me (JakeTheWolfie)

Alignment Grouping - Some Major Alignments can win with each other. (Ex: The Mafia are able to win with the Unseen, despite being differing Alignments). This could also apply to only specific roles (Ex:The Mastermind, The Coven Leader, The Cult Leader, and The Godfather are able to win with each other, if alive. This also applies of one or more of them aren't alive. All other members of their factions would lose)

Different Trials - Players vote on who to lynch during the trial phase. Whoever has the most votes is lynched.

Alignment Separating - Roles within an alignment cannot win with each other (Ex: The Vigilante can only win if the Veteran is killed, and vice versa. If both are alive/dead at the end of the game, they both lose.)



Terminology

Investigate - Check target player's alignment. This is usually diluted to be whether they are the Informed Minority or not.

Heal - Prevent target player from dying tonight.

Kill - Kill target player. This can also be paired with other modifications.

Strongman - This ability cannot be stopped unless another strongman ability stops it.

Death Immune - You cannot die at night.

Unique - There can only be one of this role at a time.

Distract - A Distracted player cannot use night abilities tonight.
