SUPERJOLT'S VANILLA MAFIA
(CSS totally not stolen from Bard who stole it from Gunner)
(CSS totally not stolen from Bard who stole it from Gunner)
The town was quiet as a steady downpour of rain washed over; the streets were empty. The night was dark, save for the light of the faintly glowing streetlamps.
On the second floor of a nearby building, two shadowy figures were in a room that overlooked the street below. One sat behind a large desk, partially illumined by the dim light shining through the window from below, leaving his face obscured by the darkness. The other stood at the window, looking down at the street as he put on a hat and finished a cigarette. The man behind the desk reached for a fancy cigar and a match. His face was illuminated only for a moment as he lit the cigar. He let out a big puff of smoke. "Do you know what to do?" he said to the man standing at the window.
"Don't worry boss..." the man said, turning to pick up a gun off a nearby coffee stand. He held up the gun, checked to make sure it had enough bullets, cocked it, then tucked it inside his coat. "...this town will soon be ours."

Welcome to the game of Mafia! I'm Superjolt and I'll be your host!
What is mafia you ask? I'll explain!
For you new players out there, Mafia is a game where players are divided into two teams: the Town, and the Mafia. The Town is the uninformed majority, they don't know who the other members of the Town are, or who is Mafia. The Mafia is the informed minority, they know who the other members of the mafia are. The goal of the Town is to try and figure out which players are in the Mafia (and who isn't!) by voting to lynch players and remove them from the game. The Town wins when all members of the mafia are eliminated. Of course, the Mafia will also be in the mix trying to mislead the Town! The Mafia will kill other players during the Night Phase, their goal is to outnumber the Town in order to win.
The game is split into two phases: the Day Phase and the Night Phase! During the Day, the discussion begins in the thread. The Town players will discuss and try to figure out who is mafia (and who isn't) while the Mafia try to blend in and avoid getting caught. Everyone can cast a vote for a player in order to lynch them. At the end of the Day, the player with the most votes will be lynched and their alignment will be revealed to everyone. During the Night, players won't be able to talk in the thread. The Mafia then discuss in a private chat which player to kill. The player that gets killed will be revealed in the thread at the start of the next Day Phase.
Each player also receives a Role. Some players may be able to use special abilities during the Night Phase, depending on what role they have. These abilities can include investigating players to see if they are mafia, protecting a player from getting killed, or even blocking a player from using their ability (and more! See below for the list of roles)

ROLES AND SETUP
I thought it would be cool to introduce a couple of different roles! I think it should still (hopefully) be easy for newer players to understand.
There are 12 possible setups in the spoiler below, one will be randomly selected before the game begins (not every role exists in every setup). I've tried my best to keep things balanced (I'm not the best when it comes to balance), so if anything looks unbalanced or if there's any other concerns, please let me know!
Spoiler:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a list of possible roles in the game:
Town
Masons
Two players will be masons. Their identities are confirmed to each other at the start of the game. They will have access to a private chat where they can discuss things at all times.
Cop
Can investigate a player during the night to find out their alignment. The results they receive will either be Guilty (mafia) or Not Guilty (town).
Doctor
The doctor can choose a player to protect during the night. Any attempts to kill that player will fail. (The doctor cannot self-target).
Tracker
The tracker can target a player during the night. They will learn who that player visited during the night.
Vigilante
The vigilante can shoot a player during the night to kill them.
Weapon Inspector
During the night, the Weapon Inspector can check to see if a player possesses a weapon "in flavor". For this game, all members of the mafia, cops and vigilantes will return a guilty result to the inspector.
Bulletproof
This townie has a bulletproof vest that allows them to survive the first time they are targeted for a kill. They will not be informed if their vest is used up.
Commuter
During the night, the commuter can choose to "leave the town" for the night. When a player is commuting, they cannot be targeted by any actions during the night, including night kills. The amount of times they can commute is limited.
Bodyguard
Similar to the Doctor, the Bodyguard can guard a player during the night. However, if the player guarded by the Bodyguard is targeted for a kill, the Bodyguard will die in their place.
Jailkeeper
The Jailkeeper can target a player during the night. Their target will be protected, but they will also roleblock their target and prevent them from using any night actions.
Univseral Backup
The Universal Backup will inherit the role of the first town power role that dies in the game. For example, if the first role that dies is the Jailkeeper, they will become the Backup Jailkeeper and be able to use the Jailkeeper's abilities. If the Universal Backup dies before inheriting a role, they will be revealed as such, however if they die after inheriting a role, they will be revealed as a Backup of the role they inherited.
Vanilla Townie
Vanilla Townies have no special abilities, however they can still use their voice and their vote in the thread during the Day Phase and help find the mafia!
Mafia
Mafia Roleblocker
The roleblocker can target a player at night to prevent them from using their night action.
Mafia Strongman
Once in the game during the night, the Strongman can choose to make a strong-arm kill. This kill cannot be stopped by any means, it cannot be blocked, it will bypass protections and can even break through bulletproof vests. (Only the Commuter can avoid this kill while commuting).
Mafia Goon
Mafia Goons have no special abilities, but they can help their fellow mafia members in misleading the town! Goons can still carry out the mafia night kill.
Unaligned
Fool
The Fool is a role that is not aligned with the town or mafia. Their goal is to get themselves lynched. If they do, they will receive a solo win along with whatever team wins at the end. The Fool loses if they are night killed or survive until endgame. They will appear as "unaligned" on cop reports. (There is only a 50% chance of a Fool in certain setups).
Town
Masons
Two players will be masons. Their identities are confirmed to each other at the start of the game. They will have access to a private chat where they can discuss things at all times.
