Location: Birghan Peak
Date: 26th December, 2021
The helicopter you're in lands in a pretty flat area for someplace as high as Birghan Peak. It's been tough to get there in the first place, given that the altitude of the place inevitably has thin atmosphere, and the constant snow that envelops the peak.
Once the engine of the chopper turns off, all twelve of you exit it, rush to the main cabin of the place, and unpack, as the Project's lead shows up to you, introduces himself, and tells you all about The Aurora Project, all to make the ultimate telecommunications transmission hub.
But for three of you among the ones who came here...you've been assigned by an unknown party (well, unknown to the others, that is) to enact sabotage upon the Project...
Meet the Hosts!
Heeko Amekawa (Libre): He works for an as-of-now unknown company, who assigned him as the leader the Project. He primarily handles communications from the outside world, though, and as such he's invited twelve of you to help him with the heavy duty of construction and such. Of course, he's had a fair share of folks trying to overthrow, ruin, or overtake his Project, and so to deal with those meddlesome fools, he's enlisted the help of...
The Pianist (@Magolor): As her name suggests, she's the pianist of a jazz band. Hailing from the Void, she's the more calculating one of the group. Although she's just here to do a few errands, and help out, because the Singer urged her to...with a love for violence, expect her to be one of the few to not care about the death and blood. Which is real helpful when you can't just send away anyone that tries to fuck with your Project!
Gameplay
Baseline
The Aurora Project is an 8-town, 3-scum, 1-third party mafia game. The town is known as the Survivors, while the scum are known as the Traitors. The town's goal is to eliminate all of the scum, whilst the scum's goal is to equal the non-scum's numbers with theirs. The third party's goal will be described in the Roles folder below.
Investigation
Every day, there'll be an investigation on figuring out who killed the latest victim. The investigation system will be similar to that of Murder in the Mountains, where there's no RNG, but there'll be reduced evidence that's less likely to lead immediately to any certain targets.
Both town and scum can send private actions to the hosts to further their goals. The sole third-party role cannot send private actions during this phase.
If the player feels like they've got enough evidence, they can send their vote publicly at anyone they think is scum to get them executed. If no majority is reached, the plurality will be executed. If there's a tie, one will be selected at random.
Challenges
Once the hammered player is executed, the game shifts to the Challenge phase, where players will be given a series of tasks to complete for a chance to gain immunity from being killed by gaining the highest amount of points.
The success of these tasks will be first determined by 1-10 RNG, then once the RNG results are collected, a -5 to +5 point modifier system will affect the collected score, based on what kind of actions were performed to complete the tasks (i.e. between "pepperspray the bears" and "punch the bears" to deter them, the latter is more likely to give a point penalty; between "use an axe" and "use a chainsaw" to chop down trees, the latter is more likely to give a point bonus). Whoever has the highest amount of points will be determined after everyone has performed their tasks, the successes are rolled, and the modifiers have been added.
Night Phase
Night phase hits after the challenges are over. Everyone with a power role must confirm via PMing the hosts (currently me and Magolor) on whether or not they want to do their actions, otherwise it'll be automatically assumed that the player did not perform an action. The scum must also send their kill action at this phase.

Rules
1: Godmodding and puppeteering are not allowed.
2: Edits are only allowed if it's to fix formatting mistakes. Double-post to fix any grammar or wording mistakes.
3: IC jerkassery will be tolerated, OOC jerkassery will not. Be cool and respectful with others.
4: Please make sure you'll be able to participate in this game before signing up. And if you need to leave mid-game, tell the hosts so that we can find a replacement.
5: Turbolurking is not allowed. Don't post just for the sake of posting. Give actual substance or meaningful impact to the posts you give.
6: Do not reveal your roles under any circumstances. This also includes claiming that you're not a specific role. The only way roles can be revealed is if you get murdered or executed.

8: Whilst jerkassery and the occasional off-color comment is okay, NSFW, inappropriate, or outright disruptive stuff (such as Bill's Brother, or Steambot 3000 self-executing itself without giving the GM any OOC leeway to determine if its allowed or not) are absolutely not okay.
9: All private messages sent must be sent to all of the hosts (currently me and Magolor).
