Roles ........... CivviesThe Cowardly Lion - One of the surviving members of the Storyville Massacre, the once Cowardly Lion now leads Storyville. He can pardon one lynch and switch another. Fairy Godmother – Guardian of Storyville, this player can protect one player, including herself, from being night killed each night. May not target the same person twice in a row. Pinocchio – Storyville's very own paparazzi who publishes the daily press of Storyville, “The Puppeteer”. Each night Pinocchio will receive 3 pieces of information from the host which he will use in creating his latest daily edition, some true, some false. It will be up to the other players to determine how big Pinocchio’s nose is on any given day. The Tin Woodsman – The same old Tinny with the same old garden tools, doing the same old thing … fighting the forces of evil every other night. His metal armor gives him the ability to deflect one night kill attempt. If he is targeted a second time he will die but the person who targets him will die as well, regardless of whether the targeting player has protection that night or not. The Two Bears –Two original survivors of the Storyville Massacre, desperately trying to find each other again. Each night they will search for the other, and if their search is successful, they will gain btsc. Goldilocks – With a proclivity for being mischevious and entering the homes of others, Goldilocks will pay a visit to another player every night. Checking out their pad inevitably clues Goldilocks in to the identity of the player’s home she visited, but Goldilocks always leaves a trail and the player visited will be made aware of the visit. The Pig – A Survivor of the Storyville masaccre, the sole surviving little pig turned his once secure hideaway into Storyville’s very own thriving night club, the Pig Shack. Every night The Pig will get someone drunk at his establishment. That player will not be able to vote or be voted for the following day and will also be blocked the following night. Mother Goose - A very fertile fowl … every night she will lay an egg on the doorstep of another player. Some eggs are golden, some are rotten, all will have an effect on the player that receives them. Three Blind Mice (3) – This members of this rat pack are blind and thus have no knowledge if the identities of the others, however, every odd night each mouse will send me a name. If the majority send the same name, they will band together and kill their target. If the mice can successfully come together and their target is a baddie they will be granted btsc. Once the mice have succesfully gained btsc, they can no longer kill civvies. If their target is not a civvie, their target will die. If their target is a civvie nothing will happen and their target will not be made known in the thread. Prince Charming – The handsome and idolized favorite son of Storyville, this player begins the game with immunity to night kills and lynches. Each night he searches for Cinderella. If he finds Cinderella before the wicked stepsisters then he and Cinderella gain btsc and his night kill immunity will be transferred to her instead and she will be unable to be night killed as long as Prince Charming is still alive. He will also get a single kill to use at this time. If the Wicked Stepsisters find Cinderella before Prince Charming, Cinderella will die, and Prince Charming turns rogue, going on a killing rampage every night. If Cinderella dies by other means before either Prince Charming or The Wicked Stepsisters find her, Prince Charming will lose his immunity to night kills and become a vanilla civvie. The WSS will begin searching for him every other night at this time, and if they find him he will join them. Cinderella – Storyville’s most sought after player and a no nonsense kind of girl. Blessed with an insightful mind she is capable of seeing the truth in any situation. Cinderella will be able to check the veracity of one statement made by any player every night, however, “forced” LD statements won't be accepted. Little Bo Beep - Poor Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep and is searching frantically to find them. Each night Little Bo Peep searches for her sheep by submitting a name to check. Once she successfully finds a sheep she will gain btsc with all the sheep. If Little Bo Beep dies before she can find a sheep, the remaining sheep will gain btsc with each other upon her demise. Sheep (2) – No special powers, just waiting for Little Bo Peep to find them. The Young Princess - This player is searching for the Frog Prince by submitting a name to me each night to check. If she finds the Frog Prince before the witches or the thieves, the Frog Prince will become permanently aligned with the civvies and the Young Princess will gain btsc with him. Baddies The Coven (6) The Dark Sorceress – The leader of the coven, this player will submit the name of one player to kill every other night. It the Dark Sorceress is targeted at night by the Tin Man or The Three Blind Mice, an random civilian will die in her place. If she is targeted at night by The Brutal Thieves Guild a random guild member will die instead. If lynched the Dark Sorceress will choose a player that voted for her in that lynch to die with her. The Chaos Caster – A fan of the Dark Leprechaun she has read about in her mafia storybooks, this skillful spellcaster is a mischevious one and spends her time amusing herself by casting a variety of spells on the residents of Storyville . Each night she will cast a spell from her spell book on another player. Spells include things like a day of silence, a day of short posts, a day of only picture posts and other assorted tricks …… The Necromancer – Skilled in the craft of necromancy, this player will be able to learn the identity of any dead player each night. In addition, she will be able to use the power of any dead player she has searched 3 times during the game. The Witch Doctor - Can protect one player each night. The protection of the Witch doctor is blanket protection and extends to all effects of night targets, not just night kills. The Hag – A truly hideous and disgusting creature, the Hag uses her witchly powers to seduce another player each night. Because of the disgusting nature of the encounter, the targeted player will be so traumatized they will be unable to use their power that night. Wendy - The youngest of the coven, Wendy has not mastered many spells and has none of her own to cast. She does, however, enjoy spending her nights exploring the ponds of storyville looking for frogs to add to her ever-growing collection. She will search each night for the Frog Prince. If she finds him he will join the coven. The Brutal Thieves Guild (6) The Master Thief – The leader of the guild, this player will submit the name of one player to kill every other night. The Lookout – Every successful thievery crew needs a lookout and the guild in Storyville is no exception. Each night the lookout will target one player to look out for each night. If that player is targeted the lookout is notified and can deflect the targeted power to a player of their choosing. The Identity Thief – Every other night this player will steal another player’s identity for the night. The Identity Thief will get command of the targeted players power instead and the targeted player will be blocked that night. The Grave Robber – Heads to the cemetery every other night and loots one grave of a dead player coming back with that players identity. The Frog Slime Salesman - A con man of epic proportion, this thief earned his reputation and his guild stripes by conning innocent civilians out of their hard earned money by peddling various lotions and potions made from snake oil. He has found snakes to be in short supply in Storyville and has turned his focus to peddling frog slime. He searches for the Frog Prince every night. If he finds him first the Frog Prince will join the thieves. The Apprentice - The lowest ranking member of the guild. This player will save the Master Thief from one lynch by dying in his place. As long as this player is still alive, the Master Thief is also protected from night kills.

Roles Continued .......
Rogue/Independent The Frog Prince - Once a handsome and dashing young prince, this player now spends his days alone hopping around the ponds of Storyville, croaking away in misery, having been cursed by an evil fairy and turned in to a frog. Still a prince at heart, this player begins the game temporarily aligned with the civvies but that could change if the witches or thieves get their way. When it comes to the cursed princes alignment, it truly is a race to find the frog. The Wicked Step Sisters (2) Disliked and distrusted by the residents of Storyville for their pettiness and social climbing ways, the Wicked Stepsisters start the game with a single goal in mind … the elimination of Cinderella. The sisters will search each night for Cinderella by pm’ing me the name of one player to search. If they find Cinderella before Prince Charming does, Cinderella will die, the wicked stepsisters will join one of the other baddie teams and Prince Charming will go rogue. If Prince Charming places the glass slipper on the foot of Cinderella before the wicked stepsisters find her, the wicked stepsisters go mad with jealousy and begin killing every night. The WSS will begin killing if Cinderella dies by a means other than them, but it will be limited to every other night (unlike the every night kills they would have if PC finds Cinderella first). On the nights they don't kill they search for Prince Charming ... and if they find him, he will join them ... afterall, he is going to need someone to pick up the pieces of his broken heart ..... who better than the WSS? The Big Bad Wolf – The son of the original Alpha Wolf, this lupine terror is far craftier and far more vicious than even his father was. Having grown up an orphan, he has come to Storyville to seek his pack's revenge. Truly a wolf in sheep's clothing he is immune to discovery checks and will appear as a random civvie to role checkers. His amazing olfactory senses allow him to sniff out the identity of anyone who targets him at night. He also is very difficult to kill at night, a feat that can only be accomplished by a silver bullet, and there is but one of those in the game. He will kill every night. Rules, Conditions, and Clarifications ... RULES: Editing – There is no editing of posts allowed in this game. Behind The Scenes Contact – There is to be no behind the scenes contact in this game unless it is specified by your role. Please keep all game talk inside of the thread unless you are discussing the game with your legal btsc teammates privately. If it comes to my attention that players are breaking this rule, those players will be mod killed or replaced. Private Messages – Pasting of player or host pm’s in the thread is prohibited. So is forwarding any such pm’s to other players. Participation/Voting – Everyone has their own style of play, but please make an effort to participate in the thread discussion. It can be very frustrating for the other players as well as the host when people sign up for a game and never speak in the thread. It is also important to vote. If a player fails to vote in two polls, they will be issued a warning. If it happens again they will either be mod killed or replaced. The one exception is the first round. If a player does not vote in the first round of the game, that player will be replaced or modkilled. Dead Players – Dead players may post in the thread using red font. Dead players may only make OT posts. Dead Role Revealing - Don't do it. If you die, please keep your identity to yourself until the end of the game. If you die, please do not ask living players to reveal their roles to you. There is the possibility of a resurrection in this game, but beyond that, as a host I prefer that everyone whether dead or alive to learn information in the same way, that is as it revealed in the thread as the game unfolds. Off Topic – Please use sea green font for OT posts made in the game thread. Lynch periods will last no more that 48 hours. Nights will last no more than 24 hours. Above everything, please be courteous to your fellow players. A certain amount of game related tension is to be expected, but please remember it is only a game, one that is meant to be fun for everyone. Be courteous, be fair, and have fun!!! ![]() KILL/POWER SCHEDULE Odd Nights: The Coven kill, The Mice Target/Kill, The Identity Thief, The Big Bad Wolf Even Nights: The Thieves Guild Kill, The Tin Man Kill, The Grave Robber, The Big Bad Wolf

Prologue: It Could Only Happen On LP
Shinny started her day the way she did most, with her morning coffee and morning check in at LP. “Work first, play later” she said to herself as she logged in and clicked her way to the garbage bin. “What the hell” she thought to herself as she saw the pages and pages of spam that had piled up in the bin overnight. “Why is there so much this morning? Where is everyone?” “Got some designer shoes and handbags you want to unload GucciFan621? Thanks but no thanks, I won't click on your link, but I will ban you” *delete* “So cheapdrugstoyourdoor, you want to sell me some Cialis, do you ? I don’t think so … banned you dirty spammer you” *delete* “And what do we have here … oh lovely, just lovely … what is that picture of? Oh ? Ohh … banned you really dirty spammer you” *delete* “What’s next? Oh, now that is just sick” *delete* “Enough already!!! Where the hell is everyone today?” Shinny wondered to herself as she finished up. “Where is bleag? Where is TR? Where is DRD?” Frustrated and in need of some light hearted conversation, Shinny made her way over to the OT. But the OT was strangely vacant. None of the usual suspects around .. No LC, no BR, no LR, No Frex … It was then she saw the notification … “Oh, a pm … goodie goodie gumdrops … somebody must be here.” But when she went to her pm box in hopes of finding a message from a friend, the sender before her was unfamiliar. "Who is The Cowardly Lion?" Shinny wondered "Must be a new member” Shinny shrugged and with that thought in mind she opened the pm that would change everything. Quote:
To go or not to go? Oh, who was she kidding. She had to go. It was Storyville. "4 PM" Shinny worried "That really doesn't give me much time. I better hurry" She grabbed her favorite red coat and her ipod and prepared to leave. “Oh, one last thing” she thought as she headed for the door “Considering the way things ended last time, I better not show up at the Storyville gates without my invitation”. She went back to her computer and printed off the pm before rushing out the door. Little did she know at the time, but that pm would be her last.

Chapter 1: A New Beginning ... For Some ...
Shinny began her return to Storyville at the very place it last ended … the shore. As she stared out at the sea she reflected on the past here, each wave bringing back another flood of memories, one after another as the tides continued on. Such good times were had here by all the first time around. She hoped it would be the same for everyone this time around. As she looked out over the ocean she wondered if she really would be welcomed back, if the good residents of Storyville could forgive her. Her last visit to this place had not ended well. The Cowardly Lion had invited her however, and she knew in her heart that if he could forgive her, anyone could. “Well, I guess there is no better time than the present” Shinny said as she took a deep breath “Let’s get this show on the road” She looked down at her ipod for something to listen to that fit the occasion. As she scrolled through the menu it hit her “Yes … this is the song … the perfect song for the perfect occasion” With that she stuck her earbuds in her ears, turned up the volume, and began her journey along the cobblestone streets to the grand gates of Storyville. ******* “My, my, my” The Dark Sorceress wondered as she gazed into the scene forming in her cauldron “Look what we have here” “Is it a Frog?” little Wendy said, jumping to her feet excitedly. The Dark Sorceress rolled her eyes. “What is it with you and frogs you silly child? No, it is not a frog. Do you really think I would comment about a frog?” “I would” Wendy said sheepishly “Frogs are cool” “I know that look” the Witch Doctor said slyly as she watched the evil twinkle dancing in the Dark Sorceress's eyes. “Is it dead?” the Necromancer inquired, her curiosity peaked. “Not yet” The Dark Sorceress answered slyly “But it will be …. She will be … and soon”. “She?” the Hag said with a twinge of disappointment “I would rather prefer a ‘He’”. “Of course you would” The Dark Sorceress said as she continued to watch the scene playing out in her cauldron “But really dear, beggars can’t be choosers. And by the way, get your mind out of the gutter, we have work to do”. The Hag scowled. “Life in the gutter is my work” “What is it?” the Chaos Caster replied anxiously, rubbing her hands together. “Enough with the questions.” The Dark Sorceress commanded as she motioned to the cauldron “Come see for your selves” The whole of the coven gathered around the cauldron and gazed at the pictures forming in the water as it bubbled below as they began to cackle wildly with devlish delight. ******* Shinny continued her stroll into Storyville proper. Wanting to get to the shindig as soon as possible, she decided to take the familiar shortcut she learned about on her last visit. It was cold and damp in the woods so she pulled up the hood of her favorite red coat to keep out the chill. She was lost in thought as she meandered along the winding dirt path, completely oblivious to her surroundings and to the nefarious creature that lurked within them who’s attention she just caught. “Little Red Riding Hood?” The Big Bad Wolf said to himself as his eyes grew wide with disbelief “I thought she died in the massacre”. A sly smile slid across the wolf’s face as he began to stalk his prey. “No, no, no … it is her … the brilliant red coat, the confident gait, the way she strolls about so innocently” he thought as he did a double take “This really is too good to be true and yet it appears to be” he thought to himself as his excitement grew and his steps quickened. “I knew a dish like this was certainly too delectable to be lost to a bunch of swarthy Mafioso and pack of C4. No, this will be a feast of most epic proportions. After the damage this little tart and her little bear friends did to my pack this treat will be most sweet … after all, revenge always is”. Shinny was blissfully unaware she was being followed as she strolled, humming along to the music as the wolf moved in closer, and closer, and closer. As he closed in on his target and prepared to strike, the wolf stopped suddenly in his tracks. “That smell … that wonderful smell, so soothing … so familiar … but where is it coming from” It was then he remembered the stories he had heard, it was then he knew, his sinister smile turning into the strangest of expressions … an odd mixture of both disappointment and delight, of recognition and respect. “I knew it was too good to be true” he said to himself as he made his retreat “I may be bloodthirsty, but I am no cannibal”. With that he disappeared into the shadows in search of his next target. ******* At long last Shinny saw the great gates of Storyville coming into view … saw the tip of the newly restored town hall reaching grandly toward the sky. She heard the bells of the town clock begin to chime. It was striking 4, she was going to be late. She began to run, she really didn’t want to miss the ribbon cutting. She desparately wanted to make a good impression given that the residents were so kind to invite her back for their celebration in the first place. She was almost to the gate when a tall dark figure jumped out in front of her.“And just where do you think you are going?” The figure demanded. “To the town hall” Shinny replied “To the ribbon cutting. To the celebration” “You can’t be serious?” The figure laughed. “I’m dead serious” Shinny responded, puzzled by this figure and this confrontation. “Oh my. You ARE serious. You poor deluded thing. Did you really think you would be welcomed back here? Really?” the figure in front of her bellowed. “Why wouldn’t I be?” Shinny asked confused as she extended her invitation out to to figure in front of her “It is a new Storyville … with new characters. They want me here … I was invited by the Cowardly Lion himself”. The dark figure shook his head and chuckled at Shinny’s naivete. “Storyville is kind of like the island for some people Shinny. You know about the island, don’t you?” “Don’t patronize me. I don’t have time for this. Of course I know about the island. I’m a moderator on Lostpedia … duh … You are going to make me late. What is your point?” “My point is Shinny that for some, once you leave Storyville you can never go back” He paused, a sadistic smile widening across his face as he reached into his coat with a sadistic smile “At least you can’t” Before Shinny could reply, before she could react the dark figure in front of her plunged a dagger straight through her heart. As she dropped dead to the ground the dark figure whistled to his associates who were hiding in the shadows. “That was really too easy.” The Master Thief said as they all huddled around Shinny’s dead body. "Silly girl … you would think by now she would know better to believe everything she read on the internet.” the lookout snickered. “And certainly you would have thought she could recognize a fake account when she saw one. Cowardly Lion? Really? Come on, how stupid was she?” laughed the identity thief in disbelief. The Graverobber knelt down next to Shinny's body and pulled her ipod out of her pocket. “Ooooo … an ipod” The Apprentice said enviously “Can I have it?” “Are you kidding, you’ve got to earn your stripes kid. Steal your own ipod” the graverobber snapped. “I wonder what the last song she heard before she died was” The Master Thief said with a morbid curiosity. “Looks like it was the Pixies” “The Pixies? Really ?” The Master Thief said shaking his head “I guess I just assumed with a name like that she only listed to the Red Hot Chili Peppers” “Yeah, you know, ‘Can’t Stop’” …. The Frog Slime Salesman said rolling his eyes. “Can’t Stop?” The Lookout laughed “By the looks of it, stop is exactly what she did” “Well boys, that’s one down, 28 to go” The Master Thief said with growing confidence “We are so gonna rock this town” “Yep” the rest of the thieves said in unison “This town won’t know what hit ‘em” ******* A little while later, after the celebration had drawn to a close, a group of Storyville's finest headed home together along the cobblestone streets of Storyville. "What's that red clump lying up ahead?" said Pinocchio as he reached for his camera. The residents gasps in horror as they approached. "Oh my gosh. It's Shinny" Goldilocks said in disbelief. "I can't believe she had the nerve to come back here" the Cowardly Lion said in disgust. "Bite your tongue" cautioned the Young Princess "This is a new beginning, remember. It's time to let go of the past" "Besides" said the Pig "Dead visitors are bad for business. Nobody is going to want to come here if they think they are going to wind up dead" "Are you implying this is some kind of vacation murderer targeting our visitors?" asked Cinderella "Seriously Cindy, Vacation Murders" said Mother Goose "You watch too much tv. This is Storyville, not Dexter" "Whatever it is" The Fairy Godmother began "It's no good for Storyville. We have to avenge this death and put a stop to this now before evil gains a foothold once again. Tinny nodded in agreement "Looks like it's time to dust off my gardening tools"

OK, if the games is on, then I'm gonna go ahead and ask Shinny a few questions.
Quote:
And I don't completely understand the last bit. "It will be up to the other players to determine how big Pinocchio’s nose is on any given day." Does this just mean the we have to deduce ourselves whether Pinocchio's information is correct? Or does it mean that other players decide whether it is a lie or the truth? Quote:
Quote:
Quote:
If Cinderella dies before Prince Charming or the Wicked Stepsisters find her, will they know? Quote:
Will the role of the player who The Sorceress takes down with her be revealed? Quote:
