Werewolf #5: Super Mario Bros + Duck Hunt
Story:
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, and it was also the annual Mushroom Festival. Toads of all sorts were gathered in appreciation for the continued heroic deeds of the Mario Bros. Princess Peach in particular was excited to present the brothers with a letter in the mail that read:
Dear Mario (and Luigi),
I've baked a lovely cake for you at our Mushroom Festival, and would be honored if you came by and had a slice.
Yours truly,
Princess Toadstool.
Peach <3
Mario, of course, was eager to visit the festival, dragging a reluctant Luigi (who was thinking more of Princess Daisy at the time) along with him.
As they arrived they were met by happy Toads who were singing and cheering, and were met with a red-carpet reception with Princess Peach at the very end, holding the cake with a pleasant smile on her face.
But as they approached, the sky grew dark as several warships with Bowser's insignia approached. The evil King of the Koopas stood at the front of the largest one, making his presence known as his voice boomed.
“Mario! You've been a thorn on my side for too long, but no more!” He boomed as he held a wand aloft. “With this wand, I'll finally get everything I want!” he boomed once more. He then waved the wand as everything began to sparkle and shine, and Mushroom Kingdom was engulfed in a bright light.
As it receded, chaos had began to spread throughout Mushroom Kingdom: Ducks had suddenly appeared in a portal and had began attacking people, Princess Daisy was kidnapped by what seemed like a large ape that favored large areas that it could throw barrels from, and many of the Mushroom Kingdom inhabitants suddenly got the urge to get into the paper delivery business, only to be thwarted by random obstacles including other toads chasing them for breaking their windows.
There's also the sudden emergence of heroes seeking golden triangles, a new fascination with karate and flying space ships, toads chasing others with whips claiming they're chasing vampires, and homes being destroyed by blocks seemingly appearing from space (and then disappearing when they touch)...but those things aren't important!
All in all, it seemed Mushroom Kingdom was doomed.
Characters:
Princess Peach: Also known as Princess Toadstool in the older games, Princess Peach is the head of the Mushroom Kingdom, who habitually gets kidnapped by Bowser. She's generally known for her keen insight (despite never seeing her kidnapping coming), and clever nature, in which she can generally
see through disguises if she looks carefully enough. During each night that she's not being held captive by King Bowser, she can use her powers of insight to look at a person's role.
Mario and Luigi: Defenders of the Mushroom Kingdom, it's these two brothers that are always responsible for saving it when it's in peril and rescuing the princess whenever she's kidnapped. Using their strength, love for spaghetti, and valuable jumping skills (as well as the occasional fireball), these two brothers can each protect one person from evil's grips, provided that they haven't been touched by a poison mushroom and rendered incapacitated.
Ludwig Von Koopa: A faithful koopaling to King Bowser Koopa, its their responsibility to remove the competition and seize the day for clan Koopa. During each night, Ludwig Von Koopa will work together with King Bowser to decide who they should remove from the field. Ludwig Von Koopa must be dealt with before King Bowser Koopa may be removed
King Bowser Koopa: The great big nasty himself, King Koopa routinely kidnaps Princess Peach for whatever reason may be, and he usually succeeds until he's foiled by the Mario bros. For three nights, King Bowser may choose to kidnap the princess, rendering her insight useless for that night. King Bowser Koopa may only be ejected from Mushroom Kingdom AFTER his Koopaling is dealt with first.
Toads: a prominent race in the Mushroom Kingdom, Toads are the virtually useless characters that are only good for two things: Being around when you really don't want them to be, and churning out equally useless advice that may be completely irrelevant to what you're doing. They're essentially a normal people that will come out and speak in groups as to who they think the bad guys are, and may even vote together as a group to have one ejected from Mushroom Kingdom. At night, however, they sleep soundly in their comfy beds in their little mushroom houses.
Rules1. You must
always vote to eject someone from Mushroom Kingdom. You may, however, vote yourself as a loophole to that exception.
2. In the event of a tie, Donkey Kong will throw barrels at all people in that tie (IE, randomizer/dice roll). Whoever the barrel hits will be ejected from Mushroom Kingdom.
3. Princess Peach's power will be rendered void if she's kidnapped by Bowser.
4. The Koopas will win if King Bowser Koopa is still alive.
5. King Bowser Koopa can only be ejected/removed if Ludwig is removed first.
6. In the event that King Bowser Koopa is lynched before Ludwig is removed, he will remain alive...but his role will be revealed to all.
7. If a player does not vote for two consecutive phases, they will be forced to partake in the paper deliver service on a bicycle, be chased by an angry toad, and then thrown from their bicycle out of Mushroom Kingdom after running into a dog that will randomly appear in their path.
8. Day phases will last for 48 hours, and night phases will last for 24 hours.
9. The ejected may say a final goodbye and then proceed to talk in the “Rejected characters” PM.
Everyone has been sent their PMs, and the day phase will begin now. It will end on Friday, June 26th at 7PM PST (since I'm not off work until 6PM).
