The Content Portal: Over the years MafiaWiki has built up a sizeable collection of content related to either the Game of Mafia or the MafiaScum Forum's community. To keep things organised and easily located we have split this content up into sections, each of these sections having its own designated portal containing further sub-portals branching out into categories. On this page you will find the main portals (also known as the "Featured portals"), each featured portal will provide you with the means to find the information you seek. At present, there exist 9 portals. Of these, 3 are featured portals.
Setups: Setups Portal Each game of Mafia is unique, and not only as a result of the players involved; Power Roles often are handed out randomly, each role having unique abilities that can effect a game's state in varying ways. Moderators of games have long experimented with these roles, trying to create unique experiences without disadvantaging any Faction. Combinations of these roles are called "Setups". In this portal you'll be able to find many of these, allowing you to borrow them for your own games or be inspired for the creation of more. Watch out however! Not all setups may be balanced or enjoyable.	Roles: Roles Portal Most games of Mafia include randomly assigned abilities called Power Roles. You can get protective role (possibility to block the scums factional-kill), communication-enhancing roles (the Neighbouriser is a role which lets you create a private thread to communicate in with a player of choice), and many more. By adding roles to mafia it gains an additional aspect of play, and depending on the roles present the results can be influential to a game's outcome. You'll find a large collection of roles here sorted by type, feel free to utilise them in your own games, or go ahead and create your own!
Theory: Theory Portal Mafia is a game of cunning, intellect, and deception. Each game a new challenge for each individual present. It helps to have an understanding of certain concepts to equip yourself against these challenges. In this portal you will find pages containing such useful information: Improve your ability to analyse and reason by studying some of the Logical Fallacies here, or learn how to spot and use a Gambit. Perhaps you may wish to browse what some deem common tells for various things such as alignment and Role. Regardless of how skilled and experienced you are at this game a firm foundation of the theory behind it can only help to improve the quality of your play.
