General:
Daily Life:
1.0 If you are not signed up to the game, don’t post, don’t vote, don’t participate.
1.1 If you have been killed, either by being murdered, or executed, don’t post outside of the graveyard trial.
1.2 As a dead player, giving hints to the living players in any capacity is against the rules.
1.3 Accomplices are allowed, but don’t receive any additional bonuses.
1.4 Should there be a trap-kill, the person who set up the trap is the killer, not the person who activated it. Exceptions apply.
1.5 Multi-Posting is acceptable, but only when it is relevant to progressing something.
1.6 Multi Accounting, however, is not allowed.
1.7 Screenshots of your investigations/actions is prohibited, however, copy-pasting is allowed.
Daily Life:
2.0 During Daily, players will have the chance to roleplay as their character. You cannot make an attempt on another player's life during Daily.
2.1 Blackened sign ups for the traitors will be held throughout Daily, if none sign up, you will be randomly selected.
2.2 You are welcome to set up traps and such during daily life, but it must be done in public. You will, however, be allowed to do certain actions, such as taking something, or having a private conversation, in DMs with the host there.
2.3 Only the floors that all players can access will be made public. There may be other floors that only certain people can visit.
2.4 Once a room is visited for the first time, the host will provide a description of it.
2.5 Please, for the love of god, try to avoid talking to the Host during Daily, as I have little free time and won’t properly be able to converse with you.
2.6 Secret actions are discouraged but not disallowed. I can’t put a hard and fast rule on this other than please try to not.
3.0 There isn’t an item limit, but I urge you as host to keep it as realistic as possible. Every item is different. I won’t ask you to get a certain item to help carry things, but I may stop you from carrying things, should you have too many.
3.1 As far as roleplaying goes, do whatever. You can be as annoying to other players as you want, so long as you have the karmic justification for it.
4.0 The blackened will be notified by the host before A0
4.1 Players must send the host Direct Messages via the forums, or via discord. The forums are generally better, but not mandatory.
4.2 There will be 6 actions, plus an A0 and A7 for the blackened. That's 7 sent actions, ~24 in between.
4.3 Once all active players have sent their actions, the host will begin writing them. If everyone can do it before the 24 hour mark, actions may get sent out earlier.
4.4 The traitors will be treated like any other player, with a slight exception; the host will try to prevent them from getting caught immediately. This is vague but it could, for example, make them slightly faster, or blend in with the shadows. This is mostly done to keep the game fun.
4.5 Once A6 has been sent in, everyone will automatically return to their rooms, and the blackened will have an A7 to do what they want to. A7 must be sent in along with A6. The exception to this is if a body is discovered by at least 3 different people. Blackened included.
4.6 Once the Deadly Life/Investigation Phase begins, the blackened can no longer harm players. And all traps will automatically fail, or not activate.
5.0 When a body is discovered, a truth bullet will automatically be added called “Captain’s Report”. It will reveal any immediate information. E.g: victim, Cause of Death, Time of Death, Location, etc
5.1 If you don’t know where the body is, you will search for it until you find it. This will not count as an investigation.
5.2 The investigation period will last 24 hours, split into 2 sections, 12 hours for a unique deadly chat, where you can search for the body and other such important details. And another 12 hour section, where you can discuss between yourselves during trial to figure out greater investigations. Talking about your actions during the deadly section is strictly prohibited.
5.3 After every trial progresses, each player will be able to investigate one extra location, starting from one.
If you are unsure about what your investigation means, feel free to ask the host.
5.4 Once the 24 hour investigation phase ends, you can no longer add truth bullets, or do any investigations.
Once receiving your investigation results, you will have the choice to either post your bullets publicly, or keep them to yourself.
5.5 Only events that occurred before the deadly phase started can become truth bullets.
5.6 Depending on the area searched, certain players might not be able to investigate it.
6.0 All alive players will discuss the murder and suspects for 84 hours, with the first 12 of which, can be investigated.
6.1 With every player who dies throughout the night, the trial will increase by 12 hours in length, there is no limit to this.
6.2 This means though, you will have to correctly find every blackened and attach them to the murder they committed.
6.3 If one blackened commits two murders, you are welcome to DM the host on the forums or discord on who you think the blackened is.
6.4 Searching another player is against the rules, and demanding they reveal their inventory is also against the rules.
6.5 Once the trial ends, results will be posted.
7.0 The player with the most votes will be voted as the blackened, if there are multiple blackened it will be the players with the most votes.
7.1 If there is a tie, the players will undergo a scrum debate to figure out which is the killer.
7.2 The blackened will remain in the game if they are not caught, they will remain a traitor and have immunity for the rest of the game, from executions
7.3 The most voted players will not be revealed as the blackened or not. Just the most voted played, unless they are the accomplice.

8.3 Try to keep everything SFW, as far as sexual stuff goes.
8.4 Don’t spam.
8.5 If you find a crack or contradiction in the rules, alerting the host is a better course of action than trying to exploit it.
