Nothing reveals Humanity so well as the games it plays. A game of betrayal, where the most suspicious person is brutally murdered? How savage.

eleven? Isn't it only 9? Since the last votecount, SuNa cancelled, and ivory voted happy.

Suna cancelled and Dudes voted*
No, no, no. I'm wrong. It wasn't eleven. I'm counting someone twice, but it was ten and I didn't see SuNa's cancel. It's nine now. Ilan, greed is one of the seven deadly sins.
Sooz
They told me I was mad when I said I was going to create a spidertable. Who’s laughing now!!!

So is gluttony but I'm not letting that stop me!

You approach stall 9 to find a small crowd of people around the entrance. Making your way through you're dumbfounded by what you see - the fattest calf you've ever seen sitting on the block of the strength-test game. The owner of the stall is laughing heartily, while another man who looks similar(possibly a relation) has his hand over his face in mock dismay. It seems the calf has broken the tester - the ranker is stuck just below the bell.
With an apologetic grin you make your way forward to claim the calf on Yuzu's behalf, not looking forward to lugging the fat little thing all the way back to the pen.

I'm aware of that...
Well, something in my head tells me that I should cancel my vote, and I think there's a good reason for that. So:
#Cancel
CURRENT LYNCH COUNT
Happy: 8 - Shinan, ivoryjones, Gourd_Clae, PlatinumAshes, Dudesoft, wildwes, MajoracanKing, Yellow Magic
ivoryjones: 3 - CAVE_DOG_IS_BACK, Happy, Sooz
MajoracanKing: 1 - rabitZ
No Lynch: 2 - pianotm, TungerManU
Less than 9 hours until Day 0 ends. (Sunday 12pm, AEST - Sunday 2am GMT)
Votes are by Plurality (that means highest voted will be lynched).
Non-lynch is allowed.
Draws will result in a non-lynch.
In case of unanimous vote (bar one, of course), hammer will fall and the day will end with that person lynched.
Rules:
-Plurality lynching. Someone has to die (though you are free to vote no-lynch). Ties will be handled as they occur.
-No quoting mod PMs. Or else. You won't like 'or else'.
-NO FUCKING SUICIDES! Please and thank you.
-Day phases will be 1-3 days IRL
-Night phases will be about 12-24 hours, depending on how fast people PM their power uses.
-Try not to post or talk after the hammer.
-Format votes and day actions thusly: #lynch target #action target #cancel
-Non-talking will be punished.
-Dead stay dead unless otherwise asked to haunt the thread.
-If you cannot or no longer wish to play, PM me so I can find a replacement.
- DO NOT EDIT POSTS (Do as I say, not as I do)
- Fake power usage confuses people. Don't do it please.
Game Specific Rules:
-After the desired number of players has been reached I will PM you a character role and your Star. Please do not share your Star for no good reason.
Stars will be what your power is based on, and should be kept as secret as your powers or roles. Indeed, Stars will be what the assassin is aiming for so unless you want to make a target of yourself or help them weed out the Tenkai... :/
-Character roles will more than likely NOT match up with Star roles. This is to save people from Google lynching. ;p
- Some powers allow for a special event to occur after a lynch. These will be announced by myself in the thread and allow for some extra interaction after a lynch. Keep an eye out for these events.
- You may find items that can be used during night phases. These will not override your abilities, if you have any. That is, you may use an item (only one per night) and your ability at the same time. To use an item send me this tag in a PM during the Night Phase you wish to use it:
##Use <item>
Remember to cancel your previous votes before changing your vote. This counts for non-lynch votes too!

We are waiting on Cave, Majoracan, rabitZ and Gourd to pick a stall each. Then it'll be first come, first serve for whatever is left.

The word you're looking for is "Thelema", a system of magick that finds its origins in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. I can be any "religion" I want, a trait that Thelema has in common with Buddhism, but since when does Christianity get to have the monopoly on sin, Sooz? Especially since every single principle it holds was taken from heathen religions? Christ, who is just the last in a long line of hermits who got themselves crucified from Kronos to Horus to Odin. Shit, Odin even got stabbed in the side with a spear while he was hanging. Christmas, which is the Ancient Roman celebration of Brumalia, the last day of the festival of Saturnalia. Goodness me, Christianity even changed it's Sabbath from Saturday to the Pagan day of rest, Sunday. And our priests don't molest altar boys.
So here's an idea, Sooz. Don't tell me what I am and I won't tell you.
Ah, I think she meant in the game, piano~
There are hints of Shinto and Buddhism through-out the series and some characters are confirmed as either. Others have a more Christian-themed religion, some worship the True Runes (let's face it, they can fuck up your life something horrible so why not?) and still others are based on other religious groups in the real world, including atheism, naturalism, wiccan and the other non-religions.
Religion isn't focussed as much on in the games as race and politics are, but it is touched on lightly in some aspects, such as the Sun Rune being considered divine justice (in Suikoden V).
The series as a whole basically focuses on people being the rulers of themselves and their choices being what matters most. I mean, you have these immortal people running around due to being bearers of these all-powerful runes of magic and people just lose their shit when they realise just what those runes are capable of. The minor runes in the series are all based off aspects of the True Runes, as per the origin story of magic. The True Runes are confirmed to be conscious 'beings' who deliberately meddle in the affairs of men - a bit like the Greek Gods, for an example.

I think Sooz was facetiously referring to this mafia game being in a suikoden setting...
Shinto tended to be just as viscious as Christianity in that regard. Reasons were different, but the hate was ever the same.
It would also depend on where you were brought up and how. For example, in Harmonia - Hikusaak, the bearer of the Circle Rune, is considered an almost-God, being titled "The Absolute One" due to having reigned over the country for about four and a half centuries.
Then there's the different races who all have their own religions and traditions - kobolds, nay-kobolds, mermaids, elves, dwarves, duck-people, Wingers, Beavers, Lizardmen...
I WANT SUIKODEN VI ALREADY! ;.;
Also, a lot of places don't care about mixing of races/religion/etc so I doubt you'd be killed just for that. I mean, one of the most influential women in Suikoden I was called and considered a witch and she was basically the Emperor's live-in mistress. (Also, women have power in Suikoden. Another reason to love the series.)
@Ilan: Thanks. I figured we needed some Leknaat up in this thread, seeing as she's the one pushing everyone around all the time.
"Stars said you should kill your best friend, Riou. Sorry, it's the only way. And don't try to make peace - they're watching you. They're always watching youuuuu."
"Oh, btw Teo, looks like Gremio's gonna have to bite the dust... literally. Sorry, Stars say it must be so, so there's nothing you can do."
"Eh, no-one liked Lulu anyway. Quit crying, Hugo, you little shit. You'll get more friends. Better friends. Stars said so. Sure, one of them's the person who killed your little friend here but hey, at least she's a hot chick, amirite?"
