Death Rattle Mafia

Death Rattle Mafia is an 13 player open setup conceived by pieceofpecanpie, and designed with the help of AurorusVox, which is built around a mechanic that allows town to use their abilities following night kills by the mafia team.

Setup

• 10 Vengeful Enigma

(2xCop, 1-3xRolecop, 1-3xGunsmith, 4xFruit Vendor)

• 1 Mafia Fruit Vendor
• 1 Mafia Encryptor
• 1 Mafia Godfather

Mechanics

• Day start
• Townie pool of 2 x Cop, 1-3 x Rolecop, 1-3 x Gunsmith, 4 x Fruit Vendor
• Townies are not told their role in their PM, they are only described as an Enigma
• Yet, they do have an opportunity to learn their role during the course of the game (see section on LIVING RATTLE)
• Additionally, if they are killed at Night their ability is revealed to them and, in the throes of death, they can choose a player to use it on, this – and the result from the ability – is subsequently revealed to every living player the following game day
• In the case of a mislynch although the Enigma’s role is still revealed they are unable to use any abilities, they’re too choked up to speak

BLOODLUST, whereby lynching/killing is mandatory:

• In the event of a lynch majority not being met, the earliest leading lynch-wagon from that game day will be lynched
• Mafia must submit a NK, if they fail to do so the NK will be selected randomly

LIVING RATTLE, whereby an Enigma may learn their role before death

• Along with voting, all living players can Nominate: [player name] in game to have their true role (if an Engima) privately revealed at the end of that day phase. If the nominated player is on the scum team nothing will happen
• The player for each game day will be determined by having received a majority of nominations, which are tallied in VC’s
• A majority must be reached before a lynch occurs for LIVING RATTLE to come into effect
