Last Summer Signups - MadeOfMilk - 07-28-2021

Date: Summer of 1983
Location: Somewhere in the rural Midwest…


A-ha! Just in time! Pretty punctual for a little maggot, aren't ya?

The lights flicker on, the bulbs on the ceiling buzzing. A tall young adult in tube socks, tan high-tops and a striped, pink jumpsuit sits in a rickety metal folding chair, their smug grin only being overshadowed by large, thick, glowing glasses. Next to them is another young adult, this time with permed pink-and-blonde hair, heart-shaped sunglasses, heels, and a brightly colored sweater and skirt ensemble. On the other side of them is a shaggy-looking blond man in a black tank top, obnoxiously-color Jams, and a neon D.A.R.E fanny pack around his waist. The three of them are sitting in a room surrounded by various arcade machines, gaudy carpeting bathed in neon lights. Very faintly, Devo's "Whip It" can be heard from another room.

I'm [incomprehensible], but you may call me the Counselor, they say before motioning to the young adults on each side of them.

And these folks here are Stephanie and her beau Brad. Stephanie's the owner of the Weeping Willow Arcade. A nice little arrangement, wouldn't you say? A nice little venue for the nice little script I have prepared…

They lean forward in their chair, making an "A" with their hands as their grin gets wider… almost inhumanly wide.

Have fun, and make sure you reach for a high score…. because this may be your last summer alive.

Rules
1. Please, for the love of god, no godmodding. Violators will have their characters publicly drawn and quartered (no, really), and you will be banned from any future iterations of the game.
2. If you sign up, participate as best as you can. Don't sign up and then abandon the thread. Violators who do not post for over 48 hours will also have their characters publicly drawn and quartered and will be removed from the round. Don't do it. Also, if you must take an absence from the thread for more than 48 hours, please contact the hosts.
3. If your character is dead, do not post in the thread. However, you are free to spectate. Furthermore, do not tell players who the murderers are or give away clues outside of the thread. If we catch you, your character will be publicly drawn and quartered and you be permanently banned from the game.
4. PM all night actions to the hosts. Do not post in the thread during the night phase.
5. No stalling, please. If no deaths happen for 2 day and 2 night phases in a row, the team with the most recent kill wins.
6. Remain in character in the thread.
7. Votes will be formatted as /vote [name]. Players can retract their vote at any time. Execution will be done by majority vote. Once the majority vote is reached, you cannot retract your vote and the execution will proceed.
8. When killing a player, describe how you murder them. Also, please make your murders nasty, this is based on slasher films after all.
9. Remember, this game takes place in the summer of 1983. Try not to be anachronistic. However, characters from works created after 1983 are 100% allowed, they can easily be explained away with time travel. Anachronism gags are also allowed if your characters time traveled.



Roles
Slasher:
    You're a maniac, maniac, on the floor and you're slashin’ like you've never slashed before!

You will kill anyone who gets in your way with murderous intent. However, you share this role with two other people. Only one of you can kill per night, and even then you're limited to a single kill in a single night. The only other restriction you have is, when killing, never use guns. Ever seen a slasher movie where the killer just shoots people and leaves? Yeah, I thought so. Besides, killing at close range is much more fun…

Patron:
    Help, I've stepped into the Twilight Zone!

A role with no special abilities or conditions applied. You're just… here, trying to survive.

Investigator:
    Private eyes, they're watching you

Look at you, playing Sherlock Holmes! Each night, you may request to see the roles of one player. From there you will be given one of five possible roles that player could have.

Medic:
    Doctor, doctor, give me the news

You can attempt to heal one person once per night, negating any attempts on their life during that night. You can also heal yourself if you so choose.

Vigilante:
    Wanted: dead or alive

Time for some vigilante justice, baby! Each night you get a chance to shoot someone. However, your gun only has one bullet, and if the person you shoot is innocent, you will die. Choose your target wisely.

Bold Action Man:
    Highway to the danger zone

You've seen enough action movies to think you're qualified to be a good hero. Each night, you may protect one person of your choice. If your protectee is targeted, both you and the slasher die. If your protectee is a slasher, you will die. If the slasher targets you, only you will die and your protectee will be safe. On the off chance you protect a slasher, a medic heals the slasher AND the slasher attempts a kill, you protect the medic and die with the slasher.

Stalker:
    I always feel like somebody's watching me…

Every move they make, every step they take, you'll be watching them. You can look at the camera feed of any room of your choice once per night. However, you can only do this 2 times per round, so make your stalking skills count!

(Williams') Defender:
    I need a hero!

You're brave. You're bold. Well, maybe not as bold as the Bold Action Man, but still. You can choose one person to protect twice per game. If a slasher targets the person you're protecting, both of you will survive.

Lucky Bastard:
    You don't mess around with Jim

You're one lucky mofo and you know it. Twice per game you can use your ridiculous luck, and any attempt on your life that doesn't explicitly ignore your luck will be thwarted. Hope you packed your lucky rabbit's foot for this.

Other: The former keeper of "order" before she delegated that to Squares, and the current keeper of "fun". She'll flip between her dark and light versions whenever we feel it would be amusing.

RE: Last Summer Signups - artsyGeek - 08-02-2021

-Replacement for Kafka-

RE: Last Summer Signups - psychedelicate - 08-19-2021

[Image: 1011016_8PRbNcUN.png]

Name: Skyler Mason
Gender/Pronouns: Female, she/her
Species: Human
Age: 17
Size: Height is 5'4, weight... honestly let's just say that she weighs pretty average for a teenage girl.
Abilities: She claims to know kung-fu, but people have yet to actually see this in action. She also claims to have psychic powers, but, y'know, you should probably take that with a grain of salt, considering what I'm about to type next.
Other: Skyler is considered to be a plain, average, boring girl. The kind of girl who doesn't stick out from the crowd. She doesn't have any special talents, she doesn't have any dreams or aspirations, she's just kinda going with the flow and seeing where life takes her. But she's tired of being boring. She's tired of just being a generic nice girl. So she's a compulsive liar who tries (and usually fails) to convince people that she's more interesting than she really is. She just hopes that this summer camp thing will... spice up her life a little.

Also, she speaks in this colour.
