Mechanics:
Puzzles
In order for the Prophet and the Bhaalspawn to lose their immunity to death, the inner sanctum of the Temple of Bhaal must be unsealed. To do this, the main puzzle must be solved.
The primary source for clues will be various puzzle locations. At night, all living players will be divided into up to three groups (depending on how many puzzles are left unsolved) to explore these locations. There will be a different puzzle in each location. Group compositions are random and change each night (note that night actions can target anyone, not just players inside the same puzzle group).
Each group must vote for a “volunteer” to test their solution. Note that someone can be forced to take this position against their will. Whoever gets the most votes will be charged with the task. In case of a tie, the volunteer will be randomised to break the tie.
Voting for a volunteer uses the same formatting as voting to lynch someone. A majority doesn’t lock the vote. The tally at the end of the night is used.
Solutions can be proposed by anyone, whether they’re chosen as volunteer or not. A solution is proposed in the puzzle chat using the following format:
-propose solution
[I]insert solution here
Unfortunately for the explorers, all of these locations are heavily trapped. If a wrong answer is given by the volunteer, he has a 66% chance of being struck by a trap and die. Having no proposed solution counts as a wrong answer.
If he is correct though, he will be awarded with a clue in his night feedback PM and the puzzle location will be closed.
There may be additional clues hidden in the RP.
Solutions to the main puzzle to unseal the inner sanctum of the Temple are submitted privately in a PM to the host. They must be submitted at night. There is no penalty for wrong answers, but only one solution can be submitted per night and in order to submit one, you must forego your night action if you have any.
In addition to unsealing the inner sanctum, the first person to submit the correct solution is awarded with a 1 charge auto-vest. If more than one player submits the correct answer on the same night, the “winner” is chosen at random among them.
If the “winner’s” role is Thief, they will steal the Dagger of Bhaal and incur the wrath of his Cult, giving them up to 3 night kills instead of 1 the first night after the sanctum is opened.Each must be performed by an individual assassin.
If the puzzle remains unsolved after night 6, the inner sanctum will open automatically.
The Cult
Before the inner sanctum of the Temple of Bhaal is unsealed (the main puzzle solved), the Cult of Bhaal is able to convert players to join their faction. The maximum number of living cultists is 9.
They will not have night meetings, nor a factional kill. Instead, they will participate in the nightly puzzle chats along with all other players.They also receive a list of members every night until the Inner Sanctum is opened, but not afterwards.
When converted, roles keep their powers and simply become a cult version of their role unless otherwise noted in their rolecards. Winning condition changes to that of the Cult. For all neutrals, special conditions no longer apply. But related events will still occur (Jester lynch death, Executioner gaining immunity after lynching his target). Bhaalspawn will still lose if they do not survive until the end.
If a Bhaalspawn was converted before the inner sanctum is opened, the Prophet will be assassinated the night it becomes unsealed (cannot be prevented) and the Bhaalspawn becomes the new Cult Leader, meaning he can override the rest of the Cult’s actions.
Members of The Cult of Bhaal will start to converge for night meetings after the inner sanctum of the Temple of Bhaal has been unsealed. When this happens, the cult can no longer convert anyone, but they gain a factional night kill instead. Only an assassin can perform the night kill.
If a Bhaalspawn kills the current Cult Leader, they will be given the option to take up the mantle and become the new Cult Leader, effectively becoming a Cultist and losing their ability to win with the Adventurers. Their decision must be made before nightfall, otherwise they remain neutral.
Members of The Harpers will start to converge for night meetings after the inner sanctum is unsealed as well.
Death descriptions
Death types will not be exactly specified. They will fall into one of two roughly outlined categories:
Death by physical weapons: Assassin, Barbarian, Doppelganger, Paragon, Guardian, Fighter, Warden, Bounty Hunter, Lunatic, Suicide.
Death by magic: Evoker, Half-Dragon, Necromancer, Shadow Adept, Alchemist’s Fire.
Last Wills and Death Notes
Anyone can write a last will to be revealed upon death.
Death notes can not be used by Adventurer roles, but anyone else can.
Day and Night Length
Most days and nights will be 48 hours long. Certain exceptions may occur. If forums go down, it will be at the hosts discretion if an extension is necessary.
The game starts on day 1, with lynching being allowed.
Lynches
Lynches use [ vote ] tags.
Before the Inner Sanctum is opened, there will be no hammer votes. Days will not end when a majority is reached. They will end as scheduled, and if a player has a majority of the votes at that time, the lynch will take place. In case two players have an equal majority because of the Duke (Mayor), the Duke's vote decides.
After the Inner Sanctum is opened, majority lynch votes will end the day immediately. Though the night will not start until the scheduled time, the RP and the lynched target's role may be posted before then.

Mechanics:
Puzzles
In order for the Prophet and the Bhaalspawn to lose their immunity to death, the inner sanctum of the Temple of Bhaal must be unsealed. To do this, the main puzzle must be solved.
The primary source for clues will be various puzzle locations. At night, all living players will be divided into up to three groups (depending on how many puzzles are left unsolved) to explore these locations. There will be a different puzzle in each location. Group compositions are random and change each night (note that night actions can target anyone, not just players inside the same puzzle group).
Each group must vote for a “volunteer” to test their solution. Note that someone can be forced to take this position against their will. Whoever gets the most votes will be charged with the task. In case of a tie, the volunteer will be randomised to break the tie.
Voting for a volunteer uses the same formatting as voting to lynch someone. A majority doesn’t lock the vote. The tally at the end of the night is used.
Solutions can be proposed by anyone, whether they’re chosen as volunteer or not. A solution is proposed in the puzzle chat using the following format:
-propose solution
[I]insert solution here
Unfortunately for the explorers, all of these locations are heavily trapped. If a wrong answer is given by the volunteer, he has a 66% chance of being struck by a trap and die. Having no proposed solution counts as a wrong answer.
If he is correct though, he will be awarded with a clue in his night feedback PM and the puzzle location will be closed.
There may be additional clues hidden in the RP.
Solutions to the main puzzle to unseal the inner sanctum of the Temple are submitted privately in a PM to the host. They must be submitted at night. There is no penalty for wrong answers, but only one solution can be submitted per night and in order to submit one, you must forego your night action if you have any.
In addition to unsealing the inner sanctum, the first person to submit the correct solution is awarded with a 1 charge auto-vest. If more than one player submits the correct answer on the same night, the “winner” is chosen at random among them.
If the “winner’s” role is Thief, they will steal the Dagger of Bhaal and incur the wrath of his Cult, giving them up to 3 night kills instead of 1 the first night after the sanctum is opened.Each must be performed by an individual assassin.
If the puzzle remains unsolved after night 6, the inner sanctum will open automatically.
The Cult
Before the inner sanctum of the Temple of Bhaal is unsealed (the main puzzle solved), the Cult of Bhaal is able to convert players to join their faction. The maximum number of living cultists is 9.
They will not have night meetings, nor a factional kill. Instead, they will participate in the nightly puzzle chats along with all other players.They also receive a list of members every night until the Inner Sanctum is opened, but not afterwards.
When converted, roles keep their powers and simply become a cult version of their role unless otherwise noted in their rolecards. Winning condition changes to that of the Cult. For all neutrals, special conditions no longer apply. But related events will still occur (Jester lynch death, Executioner gaining immunity after lynching his target). Bhaalspawn will still lose if they do not survive until the end.
If a Bhaalspawn was converted before the inner sanctum is opened, the Prophet will be assassinated the night it becomes unsealed (cannot be prevented) and the Bhaalspawn becomes the new Cult Leader, meaning he can override the rest of the Cult’s actions.
Members of The Cult of Bhaal will start to converge for night meetings after the inner sanctum of the Temple of Bhaal has been unsealed. When this happens, the cult can no longer convert anyone, but they gain a factional night kill instead. Only an assassin can perform the night kill.
If a Bhaalspawn kills the current Cult Leader, they will be given the option to take up the mantle and become the new Cult Leader, effectively becoming a Cultist and losing their ability to win with the Adventurers. Their decision must be made before nightfall, otherwise they remain neutral.
Members of The Harpers will start to converge for night meetings after the inner sanctum is unsealed as well.
Death descriptions
Death types will not be exactly specified. They will fall into one of two roughly outlined categories:
Death by physical weapons: Assassin, Barbarian, Doppelganger, Paragon, Guardian, Fighter, Warden, Bounty Hunter, Lunatic, Suicide.
Death by magic: Evoker, Half-Dragon, Necromancer, Shadow Adept, Alchemist’s Fire.
Last Wills and Death Notes
Anyone can write a last will to be revealed upon death.
Death notes can not be used by Adventurer roles, but anyone else can.
Day and Night Length
Most days and nights will be 48 hours long. Certain exceptions may occur. If forums go down, it will be at the hosts discretion if an extension is necessary.
The game starts on day 1, with lynching being allowed.
Lynches
Lynches use [ vote ] tags.
Before the Inner Sanctum is opened, there will be no hammer votes. Days will not end when a majority is reached. They will end as scheduled, and if a player has a majority of the votes at that time, the lynch will take place. In case two players have an equal majority because of the Duke (Mayor), the Duke's vote decides.
After the Inner Sanctum is opened, majority lynch votes will end the day immediately. Though the night will not start until the scheduled time, the RP and the lynched target's role may be posted before then.
