Like Tears in Rain

Like Tears in Rain

It's an era where travel between different times and different timelines is possible. When? Where? ...Unimportant. There are also sentient AIs working to keep the timeline as it is… and some working for groups who feel the timeline would be better off just a bit different. Or a lot different.

BOB-B is tasked with defending the current timeline. MORI-RT was developed by a group collaborating across other timelines. They're not so happy with the status quo, and they're willing to go to some extreme lengths to put their ideas into practice.

You are all important in some way. How? ...Well, even the two AIs can't see all eventualities. But you've been kidnapped and put into… well, a containment. You have all amenities. It's a pretty nice place. There's even a room with portals back to your own times and dimensions…. You have to be back here at night though. They know where you live. Literally.

A few of you are supporters of the group behind MORI-RT. Not even BOB-B knows which ones. But the supporters will try to erase the others from the timeline, permanently.

THIS GAME WILL BE CUSTOMIZED THE PLAYERS. Yes, you can still change your character and of course you can drop out. This will mean that there will be a longer than usual time after signups in order to complete the customization. The game is expected to start in the middle of December. Please be patient, and understand that this is a slightly higher commitment than usual, but as I said you can still change characters or drop out and be replaced. Co-hosting will be MadameButterflyKnife!

RULES

There are 10 slots and two scum tasked with erasing the others from the timeline, permanently. The scum will be the only ones allowed through the portals at night.  The innocents will have one Bus Driver who will be able to covertly switch two people's portals so that actions done on one person will be instead done on another. The other innocents are Town Backup Bus Drivers (have a chance of becoming the Bus Driver if the Bus Driver  is killed) or one Town Cop (Able to investigate whether a player is scum; this is affected by Bus Driving). Inspired by this MafiaScum setup: https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Bus_Service

No godmodding. No being a jerk.

If you're dead, don't post in the thread, and don't reveal what you know to those who are still playing, especially who killed you.

Please make sure all rollable actions are prefaced with a ">" as in "> [character] tries to open the locked safe." Food, drink, and moving to a place you're allowed to be are not rolled actions and do not need to be prefaced that way. Obtaining items is a rollable action.

Voting: to vote on who is a scum, use the format "/vote [character]".

There will be challenges. The best responses to the challenge will win immunity for the night (One response will be chosen as best by each of the two co-hosts. Inventiveness, writing, and amusement factor may be a part of the judging criteria, but 'what is best' is up to the two co-hosts.)

Have fun! (...Suggested, anyway. If you're not having fun, you are welcome to leave at any time.)

You find yourselves in the hallway of a somewhat futuristic house. Two floating drones approach you. One of them begins to address you through its speakers.

Welcome. My name is BOB-B. I am what you would call an artificial intelligence. I have brought you here because, even though you are from different times and timelines, I believe you are each important to the structure of the multiverse as it exists. I must safeguard you. It is my function. Beyond that far door is a portal for each of you to a location in your existences.

I have come to an understanding with my counterpart MORI-RT here. The group that created it believes they may better mold history to their benefit without you. I believe that is reckless and dangerous. I am aware that two of you are working for MORI-RT. It will be your task to safeguard your own timelines and discover these undercover operatives while you are here. Is this understood?
