Metroidvania Mafia - GAME OVER! 7 winners!

[vonFiedler]

Everyone wakes from their deep sleep a few hours early. They hear a great commotion, and enter the castle courtyard to see a giant brain being sucked on by a strange alien creature! BunnyMaster yells "see you suckas later!" as his body decays into dust.

Dear BunnyMaster,
You are Mother Brain

You were created by the Chozo for unknown purposes, and like the Metroid you quickly became a liability. Discovering the Space Pirates, you decided to use them to create true order in the galaxy. However, you still think of them and all life as mindless beasts. Your powerful psychic abilities have led the Federation to attempt to copy your technology in several different ways, some more disastrous than others. It was you who ordered the Space Pirates to invade Castlevania, as you saw the potential for power the castle had.

A powerful psychic that can read minds, once per night you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Night X - Read USER”. You will extract USER’s role PM from their mind.

You have Joseph’s Cloak, a cape which can be customized with any colors you like. The first two times you are targeted with a malicious night action (aside from a kill), your assailant will be too mesmerized by the colors and will fail. Afterwards, the cloak will break.

You are allied with the Space Pirates. To win, the Castlevanians, the Belmonts, and the Werewolf must be eliminated. Alternatively, you would like to use the Metroid to conquer the galaxy. You win if the Metroid wins.

The alien then just kind of floats away, going back into space. Pidge flies away, with his enemy vanquished and enough energy to return home.

Dear Pidge,
You are Metroid

When the Chozo discovered planet SR388, they found the only lifeform they would ever feel dangerous enough that it warranted extinction, the X. They created Metroids as a perfect predator for the X. However, the Space Pirates discovered Metroids and decided to use them as a weapon. Samus Aran wiped out most of the Metroids, but she missed you. With everyone leaving for Earth, you detected an X following, and so you gave chase.

Without inflicting any wounds or affecting an organisms bodily fluid, the seem to drain the pure life essence out of your victims. Once per night, you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Drain USER”. You will latch onto USER, and will kill them the following night. You cannot target another player with this ability while latched onto USER. After killing a player, you gain protection from one night kill (this protection may not be stacked). If you kill more than one player from any faction, you will become sick and will be unable to use this action the following night.

You are allied with yourself. To win, you must kill at least three players. In addition, the X must be eliminated.

Congratulations Pidge and BunnyMaster for winning Metroidvania Mafia!

While everyone is distracted, the remaining Castlevanians scheme and plot! A giant skull falls down from the sky, crushing the large reptile loudkirbyking to death. The beautiful vampiress StevenSnype leisurely climbs down from the skull, as loudkirbyking mutters his final words "Hey, I did my job, this is everyone else's fault."

Dear loudkirbyking,
You are Kraid

A monstrous reptile, you are one of the Space Pirate’s main enforcers, second only to Ridley. Your massive size and tough skin makes you a defensive stronghold, while spikes fired from your belly provide devastating artillery. You protected the Brinstar area of Zebes twice, but fell to Samus each time. You followed the Space Pirates to Earth, ready and willing to attack Castlevania.

You are essential for completely blocking off small passageways. Once per night, you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Night X - Block off USER”. USER will be protected from night kills, as your girth will get in the killer’s way. You may not target yourself with this action.

You have the Crissaegrim, a sword that rapidly slices faster than the speed of light. Because it is so fast, you may not be redirected.

You are allied with the Space Pirates. To win, the Castlevanians, the Belmonts, and the Werewolf must be eliminated. Alternatively, you have detected a mole in your ranks. If you kill the person moling the Space Pirates, you win. This can be accomplished by ordering the kill as the Space Pirate leader, or if the Space Pirate leader orders you to perform the kill.

Congratulations loudkirbyking for winning Metroidvania Mafia!

Next, the dark priest RaRe555 inflicts a curse on Phantasia, Simon's Curse! Rather than play the shitty game, he runs off to the nearest source of water and dies instantly.

Dear Phantasia,
You are Simon Belmont

You were the first and most famous vampire hunter, a reputation you don’t really live up to when put under scrutiny. You defeated Dracula once, but this was only a ruse on his part. He put a curse on you which required you to resurrect him within seven years or die. This was ample time to easily foil Dracula’s plan simply by having a child and passing on the family blood, but you collected all of his body parts and brought him back anyway. Then you killed him again, so it kind of balances out. When the Space Pirates invaded Castlevania, all of the other Belmonts and their friends went to fight so you must join them or risk losing your stardom.

As an incredibly famous vampire hunter, your vote counts as two votes.

You have the Ice Beam, a strange futuristic weapon that freezes things in midair. Once per night, you can PM both vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Night X - Freeze USER”. USER will be unable to communicate outside the thread for two cycles, though they may still post in the thread.

You are allied with the Belmonts. To win, all Space Pirates, Castlevanians, and the Werewolf must be eliminated. In addition, you are trying to keep your star power. You must be elected leader of the Belmonts at least three times.

Japanese high school student jigglypuffers figures he could kill one of the remaining Castlevanians, but not too of them. He just wants to back home to his girlfriend, but before he can leave RaRe555 and StevenSnype turn him into Dracula!

Dear Jigglypuffers42,
You are Soma Cruz

You were once an ordinary high school student in Japan, but your life got flipped turned upside down when it came to your attention that you are actually Dracula. Yes, Dracula also exists, but there’s probably a really convenient explanation for that somewhere. Regardless, when Graham Jones tried to take control of Castlevania, all the Belmont allies showed up pretending to be in disguise even though it was pretty obvious who they were. They helped you defeat Jones, and the darkness in your own soul. Now that the Space Pirates have invaded Castlevania, you want to help them return the favor.

Since you are able absorb the soul’s of the demons in Castlevania, you fit right in with their lot. If you are inspected, your role PM will appear as below. However, you should be aware that someone else is moling your faction, so you probably should keep this secret from even your allies.

You have the Dagger. Though a classic vampire hunting weapon, it is a very weak one. Once per game at night, you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Night X - Throw Daggers”. Anyone targeting your faction will notice that you are throwing daggers, and will target you instead.

You are allied with the Belmonts. To win, all Space Pirates, Castlevanians, and the Werewolf must be eliminated. In addition, you are just a high school student who wants to be with his girlfriend. You do not want to give your life for this cause, and must survive until the end of the game.

"Well, now what?" RaRe555 and StevenSnype say to each other. Resurrecting Dracula is kind of their thing and now they don't have much purpose. They decide to take the Space Pirate ship and continue their adventures where no Castlevanian has gone before, leaving their Role PMs behind.

Dear RaRe555,
You are Shaft

As a powerful dark priest, you desired to conquer the world by bringing Dracula back to life. Contrary to the common trope, Dracula did not kill you for this act of kindness but instead welcomed your help. You even went the extra mile, just before being defeated by Richter you cast a spell on him which would corrupt his mind and make him serve Dracula. When the Space Pirates invaded Castlevania, you couldn't let them take the castle.

With the power to corrupt even such a strong mind, once per night you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Night X - Curse USER1 to vote for USER2”. USER1 will be forced to vote for USER2 the next day or they will die. A player cannot be persuaded twice at once, and if silenced the persuasion will have no effect.

You have the Morph Ball, an odd alien device that allows you to roll into a small ball. Once every two nights, you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Morph near USER”. You will morph near a dead user, and obtain items that others missed.

You are allied with the Castlevanians. To win, the Space Pirates, the Belmonts, and the Werewolf must be eliminated. Alternatively, being skilled at creating moles allows you to know that someone is moling Castlevania. If you kill the person moling Castlevania, you win. This can be accomplished by ordering the kill as Castlevania’s leader, or if the Castlevania leader orders you to perform the kill.

Dear StevenSnype,
You are Camilla

You are a vampire countess famed for your ability to retain your youth and beauty even after centuries. You were never one of Dracula’s most important servants, but you are one his most long lasted. You even resurrected him once, but was promptly defeated by a vampire hunter who wasn’t even a Belmont. When the Space Pirates invaded Castlevania, you rushed off to prove your worth.

You are skilled at giving yourself the energy to stay young and beautiful. Once per night, you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Night X - Energize USER”. USER will be given enough youthful energy that their night action will be completed with a higher priority.

You have the Cross, the most powerful weapon against vampires. Once per game at night, you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with “Night X - The Power of Christ”. Jesus will protect you from all night actions.

You are allied with the Castlevanians. To win, the Space Pirates, the Belmonts, and the Werewolf must be eliminated. Alternatively, you know of another being nearby that manipulates energy, the Metroid. If you kill the Metroid, you win. This can be accomplished by ordering the kill as the Castlevania leader, or if the Castlevania leader orders you to perform the kill.

Congratulations on the Dark Horse Victory Castlevania!
Congratulations to StevenSnype, RaRe555, Quagsires, and -TheLucarioEffect- for winning Metroidvania Mafia!

[Spiffy]

If I was elected leader that final day I really should win too?

I don't know if I was but really...

[Steven Snype]

BOW CHICKA BOW WOW!

[Aura Guardian]

good game, guys. I'll comment in the postgame, probably.

[Quagsires]

And Von can back me up when I say we thought Castlevania was doomed...

gg, very interesting watching that play out...

I'll save the rest for postgame.

[Acklow]

Dang....Good Game peoples

[assassinfred]

good game. Too bad my win condition sucked, and I wasn't alive long enough to achieve it. Oh well, not much you can do. And jigglypuffers was the mole... to think I plotted with him! eww...

Anyways, good game all, I had fun. Can't wait for postgame.

[ginganinja]

Yeah!

I lost but my faction won so yeah.

[AuraPaladin]

told you guys castlevanians were still a threat. :P

gg all, shame it didn't go our way, but oh well.

[Phantasia]

it was a fun game, gg

[Captain Bagman]

I actually thought this might happen. Space Pirates and Belmonts got a bit too focused on each other. Good game over all I suppose.

[Da Letter El]

Castlevanians more like Corleones amirite.

It's always the little man that wins these games.

[Crux]

Thanks for hosting von and Pole, just going to point out that the Castles started to play a lot better after Spiffy died. :)

[Steven Snype]

btw, i have billy's role PM

Dear billymills,
You are A Video Game Programmer

You are currently in college and have already developed Castlevania. However, one of your roomates has pulled a prank on you and made a character that was not originally meant to be in the game. When the Space Pirates and Belmonts invaded Castlevania, you seized this opportunity to find this flaw and delete him.

You know that Spiffy is the jackass who hacked your game and made this character and that he is in this game as that character. However, you do not know what role Spiffy is. As many times as you want, whenever you want, you can PM vonFiedler and polelover44 with "Hacking ROLENAME". If ROLENAME matches Spiffy's rolename, Spiffy will be godkilled and you will win.

Since you are only a video game programmer, you are not actually a huge threat this game, and as such, you will not be shown on the player list.

You are allied with yourself. To win, Spiffy must lose.

[polelover44]

Thank you very much, Snype. I have added that in to the OP.

[coolking49]

I think jigglypuffers should win as technically shes the only personleft on the "alive" list in the OP
