Mafia / Bring 1: Death Take Thee 5/5 (Hiatus)
« on: March 15, 2024, 04:34:54 pm »
The original death game, remastered for the first implementation of VR technology. You are part of the lucky participants who will be prototyping Bringer of Souls: Demonic Prison in preparation for it's release. The kicker however is not all of you want to see the game be sent out to the public, and they have introduced bugs into the system that are sure to have no effect on the real world whatsoever.

Now, create your character. Submit 3 Roles from the following List via Private Message.
Please note that due to time constraints, the following roles are not available.[B2] [B3]


The original game idea that inspired the second game. Which came out first. By it's nature, this game is bastard. Roles will be built around the submissions, and no guarantee you get what you submitte this time around. Let's try not to have this game crash and goo this time.

Welcome to this crazy madness of a game. Players who sign up will publicly list two powers from the MafiaWiki. These will then be randomized and handed out to the players and the mafia team randomly chosen. By the nature of the game, it's chaos. So I wonder how you will handle things.

Of Note, Mafia have a shared kill. Hammers ae in effect, and the days are 72 hours, not counting Sat/Sun on the weekends. Nights are 24 Hours or once all actions have been submitted, even if that action is to do nothing.

TricMagic has no responsibility for game balance. There will be no bastard rules or subtext.
Whenever a player is killed they will lose one of their abilities.

Please link URLs to the roles you pick, it saves time.
The italics are probably lies. I will be running all possible setups through Mephansteras.
Post In here and send the submissions via PM. So it's not open what roles are part of the game immediately.

Signups conclude next Friday.


Which means that Fallacy, you've got to pick something other than Flagbearer as it was in the last game.
In the interest of speed.

Mafia / Mafia Heist: End of the line. Town Win
« on: January 25, 2024, 10:48:44 am »
The star of the show has arrived, the Venus Fluorite Necklace, said to hold mystical powers. Now in Auction. The curtain is lifted, and the lights go out on the small boat. A gunshot is heard, and panic ensues. The sounds of flapping wings, and then emergency power turns on to find it gone.

No one is dead yet, but the prized gem has disappeared. Where could it have gone, and who has it? Many upstanding folks are here, but it will be days before the ship makes port. And in the chaos the communications has been cut, There is only a short time to find the culprit aboard the ship, as eventually people will have to go to sleep. Can they find the culprit?



TL;DR, a very short mafia game while NQTwebadict makes their game. Days are 24 hours, starting Monday, and Hammers in effect. This is also Nightless.
Note: Nightless does not mean powerless. Day Actions are processed at the end of each Day. So Chaos may vary, be very wary.

Roll To Dodge / Tower of Dreams: Roll to Dislodge
« on: December 17, 2023, 06:34:41 pm »
There was once a tower and a gate. The tower was said to grant the wish of any who climbed it. Many traveled to it, but few succeeded before it's gates closed. And then it opened once more. Many traveled to it in hopes of having their wishes answered. But there was a problem.

A dead dragon, resistant to all attempts to dislodge it from the one-way gate, was stuck blocking the way! You won't have this, so like the fools before you, you attempt to remove the obstruction.

Roll To Dodge / Dicehood: Roll to Starve
« on: December 12, 2023, 11:20:49 am »
A world without entropy , where dice rule over everything. There exist gods, who create wide sweeping changes in hope of revalence. And mortals, who roll just to survive to another day, attempting to eke out a better existence. Which are you though?

Spoiler: Tribes (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: Gods (click to show/hide)

Players roll their own dice, keep track of their own stats, and generally make it less taxing on the GM. As the game unfolds, new info will naturally be added to the OP. I only ask that you don't fudge your results. Cheating isn't all that fun for anyone, including the cheater. And may the odds ever be in your favor.

Mafia / A Mischief of Birbs: Forgotten in the Night: Mafia Victory
« on: December 05, 2023, 08:29:17 am »
You are a bird. You like shiny things. Stealing shinies is fun. But someone is stealing all your shiniest.
Find out who. Is it the neighbor's bird, the human in the house, a cat sleeping on the windowsill? Shiny!


A short nonsensical game with 4-6 town and 1 mafia. The trick is everyone is a tracker, including the mafia. Days will be a short 24 hours, much like a certain bird's attention span. Hammers are in effect. Find the bird stealing all the shinies, or be left shinyless. (The Horror.) Please take stock of your own energy. Would not want this game to drain any desire to play Fal's. Just have fun with it, don't take it too seriously.

Mafia / Catfia: Dogs vs Cats Untitled Cat Game (Mafia Victory)
« on: October 13, 2023, 07:07:51 pm »
The Cats are among us, meowzing their plots. They pretend to be friends, but what do they do when no one is watching them? Murder! Murder of innocent wildlife, paraded around as prizes. We dogs must bark out the cats of the neighborhood and protect our humans from them! Who is woof me!

This is a game of Dogs, seeking to remove cats from the neighborhood. You mutt be careful, lest they find you out. There are even Strays who side with cats! Do not trust them.


This game is comprised of a Doctor, A Cop, a Godfather, and a Henchmen. And 3 Vanilla dogs. Post your In with a cute dog image, and sniff out the Strays.
Yes, this is a silly vanilla game.

Maximum Dog

Due to GM Mistake, there is an additional role, The Dog in the Know. They know who one town is, but can't share that that is their role.
No other changes, but it's an unforeseen wrinkle caused by rushing though the PMs.

Mafia / Max Jack Knightwing (6/7) Aborted: Dead in the Desert
« on: September 14, 2023, 10:57:11 am »
A brand new Casino Town has opened it's doors in a sleepy desert oasis town. It promises to draw all sorts of folks to it's Grand Opening. Including criminals who have a hand in it. A number of investigators and vigilantes plan on visiting in hopes of settling some old scores, those that got away, so to speak.
 It promises a thrilling time for anyone coming, and the noise is enough to wake the dead and the living from their slumber.

One such being is Knightwing, who's Heir joined him some time ago. Restless, they demand compensation from their killers.
Come one and all to Max Jack Knightwing's Quest for revenge. (May not be what it says on the tin.)



After a long time of waiting, the game Knightwing has been waiting for is potentially here.
Now with added checks for balance from either Meph, Fallacy, and/or webadict hopefully. Depends on if they want to join or not.

Not all is as it seems. Beware of imbalance in the Mafia Force.

Game will start sometime this month, hopefully. Sign-ups last until Tuesday.

Mafia / Bring 3: Chaos Incarnate (Crash Report Log)
« on: March 12, 2023, 02:17:26 pm »
The Gooapocolypse has begun. After the events of Bring 2: It's Personal, the virus spread, amalgamated , and corrupted everything in it's path. As a result the internet the world relies on has become filled with bugs and becomes ever more unreliable, and tensions among the world rise. The only thing preventing complete takeover is the bugs in the system that have arisen from the unending mutation the gooey virus has undergone.

Enter the brave souls who with their experience in hacking have found a way into the central core of this virus through the same virtual game it once resided in. This backdoor will allow them to strike directly at the anomaly and end the threat once and for all. However, their firewalls will be tested, as some of the old player data yet exists performing it's own mad coding that they will have to see through and prune, before it's too late.


Bring 3: Chaos Incarnate has arrived. Take on the role of hackers out to save the cyberworld and the real world from complete collapse. It will be up to you to pick Three Roles to add to the pool your abilities will be drawn from. Due to antiviruses developed, the previous roles from Bring 2: It's Personal are not available. And like the last game, it's insanity will be the result of the roles picked.

Welcome to this crazy madness of a game. Players who sign up will publicly list two powers from the MafiaWiki. These will then be randomized and handed out to the players and the mafia team randomly chosen. By the nature of the game, it's chaos. So I wonder how you will handle things.

Of Note, Mafia have a shared kill. Hammers ae in effect, and the days are 72 hours, not counting Sat/Sun on the weekends. Nights are 24 Hours or once all actions have been submitted, even if that action is to do nothing.

TricMagic has no responsibility for game balance. There will be no bastard rules or subtext.
Whenever a player is killed they will lose one of their abilities.

Please link URLs to the roles you pick, it saves time.

Forum Games and Roleplaying / Gridhood Publica
« on: January 13, 2023, 02:44:41 pm »
An empty world, devoid of gods. What few species that exist lost to time. Even the Master is gone, and only Narration remains, chugging along with nothing to do.

It describes the emptiness of the void, islands lost. Such is Privatus.




But once, before this, there was Publica. A world established by the many, all under the one.



Gridhood Publicas is a game that is mostly run by the players. An attempt to do away with hidden modifiers and see if a world can be made that isn't killed by the crushing wait of numbers. Effectively, everything is public once revealed, from foraging to how much research is needed, as well as research effects. The trick is the players do the rolling of their numbers, and I just collate everything into a single turn.

This does require people don't cheat, but that can be balanced by the fact that cheating will kill this game.

So, time to begin.

Mafia / Angel or Demon: A 4 Player Game -The Second Sacrifice(Town Win)
« on: August 25, 2022, 10:07:47 am »
Music plays as you enter a room overlooking earth. Standing there are 3 people. A chair overlooks the Earth, before turning around.

"Welcome to the Velvet room. Your fate has been twisted, but all that remains is a Decision. Which of these three best suits your persona? Which path will you take going forward? I'll let you decide for yourself, that is if you want to continue."



Welcome to a strange thing. In this game there are four players. 1 of them is the Decider. 1 is the Angel, and 1 the Demon. And 1 is the human at the core of it all. It's the duty of the Angel or Demon to twist the Decider, as they pick off the other options via lynch. If the Decider and human survive, they win. If the Angel or Demon managed to be left alive with the Decider, they win.

The Angel and Demon do not know the other. Days will take 48 hours with a 24 hour downtime. At the end of the day if no lynch can be decided, the Decider will make the final decision. So, what's your answer?


Decider, played by "NQT"
Angel, played by "?"
Demon, played by "?"
Human, played by "?"

Note, there are no Flips in this game. And the Decider can't be lynched.

Mafia / Bring 2: It's Personal 4/7 Gopocalypse [Goo Victory]
« on: May 20, 2022, 06:07:53 pm »
After the Events of Bring 1: Death Take Thee, several players in a rouglelike digital world find themselves coming across others in a dungeon. However in this world, there are those hiding in plain sight who would stop at nothing to win, the tryhards. They have therefore banded together rather than play the game alone as it should be, and the players have found themselves trapped in a death maze with only their abilities and others to help them survive long enough to find their way out of this binary sinkhole of a sub-server. But so long as the enemies among them are within their group, they will find themselves picked off one by one.

Welcome, to B2.

Within Fortree there is much rejoicing. The President has held a feast celebrating the completion of the Lava Cannon, the dirty Ellif shall never breach their valley, and the Gobal shall die to the newly installed trapdoor corridor. Yes, there is much rejoicing.

Thump. Disaster! The President has been poisoned! He is quickly taken by his loyal guards to receive healing, using secret passages unknown to the common Dwarf. The elected council gather and the room is sealed so the culprit may be determined via traditional dwarven lynching. Somewhere among those gathered are Traitors in the Fortress.



Based on Rebels in the Place, this game has a King, Guards, and Traitors. Not everyone was happy with the President's slavedriving ways. The Grudgeful King has a number of Traitors who know the secret that the True Dwarves must pick out. Lynch the Kingpin behind this crime, and you win. Let the False King and his Traitors lead the narrative, and you're swiftly find dwarven Justice is swift and vengeful. And full of Grudges.
In other words, Lynch the Grudgeful King(Mafia) to win.
Fall to the point the Mafia faction outnumbers yours, and True Dwarves(Town) lose.
