Hi ^^ (ty also whoever payed my bail!)
With the focus on origin stories, it is quite likely that the true threats are not even in play yet. It is quite possible that Mafia is only a placeholder threat to town to keep the game going until the real bad guys show up.
Good point. Although, I don't see a reason why mafia members couldn't
also have origin stories, and AFAIK kingpin is canonically a supervillian (one of the real bad guys).
Vote: The Kingpin of Crime
Currently the only two threats that have been made clear to us are the mafia/kingpin and the green goblin. One thing I'd like to mention that it seems like people may have overlooked; In the character section of Norman's role it seems to imply that someone
will become the green goblin this game if Norman doesn't, possibly even randomly.
What does the future hold for a Norman Osborn that isn't all juiced up on Goblin Formula? And if not you, then who will fill those shoes? Someone has to... Because there always has to be A Green Goblin. Pretty sure that's a canon event. Well, I guess we'll just have to roll the dice and see, won't we?
Knowing that, Norman will probably try to become the GG first so their loss condition isn't met. A question is whether this would be worse for town than if an unknown player randomly gets the GG role in the future. Either way, I think we can assume that the GG will be someone we need to deal with in the future.
With the Tevish Incident, I'm wondering if it doesn't look
too obvious. Tevish made their post accusing Vro of being kingpin and shortly after was moved to the unknown player pool. If we're assuming it was kingpin who did it, the only motivation that makes sense to me is to cast suspicion on another player (Vro) while removing someone who was probably not on their side (Tevish). Not trying to claim Vro is town here though or even not kingpin, just saying that it doesn't make any sense for vro-as-kingpin to have done this.
