@tacit dew what is this village about? 🙂

tacit dew
# crystal briar <@1016654532832399370> what is this village about? 🙂

What began as a simple night of celebration in a quiet village has become a nightmare.
The heroes arrived at dusk, welcomed by warm lantern light, the aroma of roasting meat, and cheerful villagers raising mugs in their honor. Songs were sung, stories swapped, and for a few precious hours the weight of the road lifted from their shoulders.
But when dawn broke, the nightmare unfolded.
A malevolent cult had already seized the settlement in secret, staining its cobblestone streets with innocent blood and twisting once friendly neighbors into glassy eyed, zealous servants of darkness. Whispers of forbidden rites echoed from cellars and barns. Families vanished overnight, only to reappear the next day chanting in unhallowed tongues, their smiles too wide and their eyes empty.
The roads leading out of the village are now sealed by foul sorcery an impenetrable wall of writhing black mist that devours any who try to flee. Escape is impossible until the cult is purged, root and branch.
The heroes weary from their long journey but unbowed in spirit must now stalk the shadows. They will root out every hidden fanatic, unmask the leaders conducting their grim rituals, and silence the blood soaked altars before the entire village is lost to slaughter or damnation. Every hour counts. Every shadow may hide a blade. And with each passing night, the cult grows stronger… feeding on fear, blood, and the souls of the innocent.

Will a savant in a vortox game get both statements as false, or both statements true is also a possibility

frozen hound
onyx anvil
#

vortox says all tf info is false, so it would force 2 false statements

dusty aurora
pseudo sleetBOT
#

Gave +1 Thanks to @onyx anvil (current: #750 - 69)

dusty aurora
#

i think ive seen it played where savant info is given as follows

onyx anvil
#

so caviat to that

#

if there is a fibbin in play, if it is used in a vortox game, they get two true statements instead

#

but just that one time

dusty aurora
#

"Exactly One of the statements A and B is true" and then this statement will be made false due to vortox

dusty aurora
dusty aurora
onyx anvil
#

right, savant says one is true, one is false. vortox says make it both false

dusty aurora
onyx anvil
#

theres a few situations where they wont get 2 false statements ie. vortox is drunk/poisoned

#

savant always received two pieces of info

#

regardless of what is in play

#

now whether that info is true or not depends on other roles

dusty aurora
onyx anvil
#

from what i understand, it should always be two false statements in a vortox game due to the vortox ability. exactly one of these statements a and b is not a statement in itself, just a reiteration of the savant's ability

#

*role svant

pure sleetBOT
# onyx anvil *role svant
Savant (Townsfolk) - Sects & Violets

Each day, you may visit the Storyteller to learn 2 things in private: 1 is true & 1 is false.

**Affects Setup: **False

onyx anvil
#

or if the specific info of what youre quoting is saying something about past savant statements then thats a whole nother story

hushed oasis
#

rules as written yes savant in vortox has to get two false statements

#

I have seen STs house rule that it can be either both false statements or both true statements

#

I would assume it's rules as written unless specified otherwise

onyx anvil
#

yeah its up to st, but generally sts shouldnt be branching out too often from what is commonly ran

#

i personally would never give two true statements in a vortox game unless they get fibbined because then the st isnt running vortox properly

#

*role vortox

pure sleetBOT
# onyx anvil *role vortox
Vortox (Demon) - Sects & Violets

Each night*, choose a player: they die. Townsfolk abilities yield false info. Each day, if no-one is executed, evil wins.

**Affects Setup: **False

onyx anvil
#

per the ability, yield false info. so an st shouldnt be giving out true info in savant statements

hushed oasis
#

right that's why I'm saying it would have to be a house rule that the ST explicitly specifies they're running that way

onyx anvil
#

yeah sts can run what they want

#

but vortox might as well be announced that the info being false is selective

#

ie st chooses when its false, which makes the game unsolvable

dusty aurora
onyx anvil
#

its always good to check with your st

#

but main consensus is that both are false

#

the sts who run it as two true statements are weird and i personally wouldnt play those games

#

just as personal preference in my sts, not trying to throw shade

#

I hope those sts realize that giving a savant two pieces of true information every day is ungodly powerful and very unfair for the evil team

#

On the bright side, alignment and character changes cannot be faked by the st so you’ll always know your role and alignment

dusty aurora
onyx anvil
#

Not really

#

Vortox has this massive weakness where if town realizes its vortox, vortox gets clapped

dusty aurora
onyx anvil
#

Oh god no

dusty aurora
onyx anvil
#

There’s other roles that can detect vortox

#

In theory yes but once you look at the info and stuff is true, evil is cooked

#

Evil has to be very very good at deception and misinfo for it to work effectively which is difficult

dusty aurora
#

Ig that makes sense...

crystal briar
#

Oh I didn’t have to answer questions huzzah

#

Should be 2 false catnod

#

I have seen it run where ST gave T/T and F/F another day tho

#

99%+ of STs run it by the rules

Hiii friends! We are 2 days out for Shadows of Eldermire so it’s pre-check in question time!

  1. Are you able to commit to this game? Meaning put in the basic allotted time each day to play! (I understand life and exceptions can be made but if this is a hard no, no need to answer any additional questions - we shall find someone to fill for you! Thank you for interest in this game.)
  2. Do you understand this is a play test script? (Meaning it may not be perfect and has a chance of being swingy. We as STs will do our best for balance.)
  3. Any questions about the script?
  4. Name and pronouns for grim?
  5. Choose a seat!! (Remember 12 is top of grim.)

#

We officially have a traveler!!

#

@urban dirge !

#

Name and pronouns for grim pls. You’ll be in seat 13. I’ll be thinking of list of traveler choices for you to choose from

#

Do you have traveler preferences in meantime?

urban dirge
#
  1. Yes. My schedule's busyness waxes and wanes like the moon, and right now it's as full as can be, but I have set myself two hours each day for this, and I will put in whatever other time I have. I will not be as active as I would like to be though.
  2. Yes! All the better for Chaos!
  3. nope
  4. Quiet (He/Him)
  5. I have too many choices! I still have to consider the pros and cons of them all. 🙄
urban dirge
#

Oooh tripled Wizard

crystal briar

crystal briar

I hope everyone has thought about their really cool and awesome wizard wish if they get it

#

Can travelers be pit-hagged?

crystal briar
#

Given you’ll be apprentice - I’ll say I will rule it as you could be. But there’s implications ofc as said above

@crystal briar The date you set for your game has arrived, and you have enough players. Click Create channel to get your game channel. If you can't or won't start the game now, you can join the queue or cancel the game.

That wording suggests that if i was turned into another traveler, it wouldn't be announced, even though all players know travelers' abilities. It also suggest that if i was turned into a non-traveler i would become a full player, including being executed not exiled and life mattering for the evil win condition. I'm just trying to make sure this ruling is completely unambiguous. We could also rule that the pit hag changes my apprentice-given ability, and can't make me a demon. Ofc, now that i went to all the effort figuring this out, there won't be a pit hag anyway, most likely.

Im fairly sure raw

  • The pithag cant choose to make people into travs because irl they don’t even have the ability to point at travs for their choice
  • if you get pithagged out of being a trav you are in fact another resident now
crystal briar
urban dirge
#

Oh i didn't consider the pointing. True

dusty aurora
#

I don't get the pointing thing hehe 😅. Why wouldn't you be able to point at one irl?

carmine mango
#

The character list you have to point at literally doesn't have the travs on it is what I mean

#

The characters "the travs" not the players "the travs"

dusty aurora
#

Ahhh that makes sense
