Welcome to Mafia: Legacy 1! Mafia is, and always will be, the player's games. Mods can set up the roles, and the rules, but the same game, if played many times, can end in a variety of ways due to the human interactions that occur. I wanted to take this idea, that the players control the flow of the game, and run with it. In the Legacy series you will be given the power to change the course of not just the game, but the series.

Your actions will have a resonating effect in Legacy as choices made in Legacy 1 will impact future games in the Legacy series. While Mafia is very much a team game, a score will be kept of your individual triumphs. So while in each game you play to help your team win, the essence of the series is your individual triumphs (and failures).

Rules
- Do not reveal your roles outside of the thread. Mystery and assumptions are the point of this game, so if all the Townies band together through PMs you will ruin this game. Play with integrity. Lying is fine though. Mafia members may lie that they are Townie. Deception is a major aspect of this game.
- You may only post in the Day period.
- Vote and unvote in the format: Vote: Player X; Unvote; Please post these in BOLD
- DO NOT REVEAL ANY INFORMATION AFTER YOU HAVE DIED. If you are a Mafia member and you die, do not reveal to anyone who else is Mafia because that information may end up in the hands of the Townies.
- DO NOT EDIT YOUR POSTS. DO NOT DELETE YOUR POSTS. I hope I don't have to repeat it again. This is a cardinal rule. Editing your posts is a no no. If you have something more to say, or need to edit a section of your post then MAKE ANOTHER POST saying what you need to say. If you are caught editing, you will be ModKilled. Same goes for deleting posts.
- You may not post any information (quotes or screencaps or allusions) that relates to anything outside of the thread itself. So no evidence using the "Who's Online" or Shoutbox.
- You may roleclaim at any point in the game, but you may not copy paste or screen cap the role PM sent to you. You may only paraphrase it in your own words. Be warned though, role and name claiming is especially dangerous.
- Do not talk about this game outside of the designated area(s), aka the game thread and/or Quicktopics that I have provided.
- If you refer to me, please bold my name. Makes it easier to see.
- You may not copy/past, or post any PMs I send you (including the role PM) word for word. They MUST be paraphrased/stated in your own words.

Game Specific Rules
- Each Day period will last 5 days. An extension will be granted if asked for, but only once per day.
- Each Night period will last 2 days.
- Claiming is allowed. But not mass claiming (as defined as more than 2 full claims in a day period)
- You may Vote: No lynch
- If no majority is reached, player with the most votes ABOVE half the majority will be lynched. If two players are tied with votes above half the majority, or all players have less than half the majority of votes (rounded up), a No-Lynch will occur.
- Minimum 5 posts per Day period
- Keep spam to a MINIMUM
- If you're dead, you're allowed ONE POST PER GAME DAY. No more.

Legacy Mechanics
- Legacy has two separate point systems. Legacy points, and Victory points. Each are earned in different manners and there are multiple ways to earn them. A few ways are listed below, but there are way to earn them that will be hidden from you. You will figure those ways out as you play (or not). All earned Legacy points and Victory points will be revealed at the end of each Legacy game. Points will move with you throughout the series.
- Replacement players will take over the Legacy points and Victory points of the player they are replacing. If the player returns later in the series, they will continue with the points they earned before they stopped, and with points accommodating them for the game(s) they missed (if any).
- New players in Legacy 2/3/4/5 will be accommodated with points for any games they have missed. It won't be much, but it'll help you get on your feet so you can start working towards that overall victory.
- Legacy points can be spent on Role Upgrades, Role Revivals, Perks, and more.
- Victory points can be spent to get a certain amount of game points. Otherwise, they accumulate over the series. The player with the most Victory points at the end of the series wins. Nothing is won, except bragging rights.
- The winning team (if Mafia), winner (if 3rd party) or surviving townies (that won) will be able to change the course of the future of the series. Many options open up to them, from creating a role to appear in the next game, to destroying a role altogether (if some limitations) so it doesn't appear in the series ever again. More will be revealed at the end of the game.
- The last remaining anti-town player (during a town win), or the townies that got end-gamed (during a non-town win) will be given a secondary prize. This will be revealed at the end of the game.
- Legacy also includes conditional mechanics. These are hidden from the players and will activate when a specific condition is met. Though not game breaking, they will have great effects.

Legacy Points: Legacy points can be earned in a couple of ways. Some are easy to get, some aren't, but if you got em, you get a leg up on the competition.
Global:
2 Points - Achieve your team's victory condition

Town Only:
1 Point – Be on a mafia lynch
1 Point – Be one of the first players (first 3 votes) on a mafia lynch
1 Point – Kill the Godfather (Awarded to all townies)
1 Point – Survive until the end
1 Point - Lynch a 3rd party role

Mafia Only:
1 Point – Be on a town PR lynch
1 Point – Be the one of the first players (first 2) on a town PR lynch
1 Point – Nightkill a town PR (Awarded to all mafia)(only awarded once)
1 Point – Survive until the end
1 Point - Lynch a 3rd party role

3rd Party
:
1 Point - Be on the lynch of the Godfather
1 Point - Be on the lynch of a town PR (only awarded once)
1 Point - Be on the lynch of a mafia member
1 Point - Nightkill a town PR or Mafia PR (only awarded once)(only awarded to killing 3rd party roles)
1 Point - Survive until the end

There are many ways to earn Legacy points. These are many of the general ways to earn them. The remaining ways to earn them are hidden. All Legacy points that are earned will be revealed at the end of the game, as will the hidden ways to earn them (if those conditions are met). Legacy points won't have too great of an impact in this game, but will be important as the series goes on as you accumulate more.

Victory Points: Like Legacy points, Victory points are earned for doing certain things. Victory points earned will be revealed at the end of the game. Victory points can be cashed in for Legacy points, or saved up. The player with the most Victory points at the end of series will be declared the winner, of sorts (I have no prize in mind, but as of right now, it'll just be bragging rights).

2 Points – Team achieves victory condition
1 Point –First 2 voters on a scum lynch (Town/3rd party only)
1 Point – First 3 voters on a town PR lynch (Mafia/3rd party only)
2 Point – Vote on every scum lynch (Town/3rd party only)
2 Point – Survive a day after you have gotten to L-1 (Mafia/Solo 3rd party only)

Legacy Points can be spent on: (Point cost shown on left)

The townsfolk of Viral Mazeia gathered in the town square. Each night, for the month, dead bodies have been showing up. There was no pattern to it. Children, the elderly... None were spared by this malevolent force that was sweeping through the town. The survivors of the town, once with a population of hundreds, knew that who ever was behind these attacks was now in this small core group of 18.
