Game Mechanics[]
Rules[]
- In the event of a Tie Lynch Vote: Both players will be killed
- Blocks: Will not have any effect on RIDs and will NOT be mentioned in any post. It will be as if the initial action never occurred. The blocked player will be privately informed that they were blocked, but not by what role. Blocks will stay in effect during the night they were initiated AND the following day. Initial blocking abilities Trump everything else in the event of a paradox.
- Meditation: Any night that a player has an action to make, they may forgo all night actions (or actions for the following day) in order to clear themselves of Thanos’ mind-enslavement. After the meditation players will be informed if they had been enslaved.
- Anonymity: This game is played where each player shall receive his own unique MM login that pertains to their own name in this game..
Role Description[]
The Avengers - The Secret government agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D. has united some of the most powerful beings ever to act as Earth's most powerful weapon. Together they possess incredible strength unlike any alliance the world has ever known. One random member among them has secretly joined with a Villain, in a quest to rule supreme over all others. As a group the Heroes/Avengers get to make one kill each night (they must choose which member of their BTSC will carry out the attack). All Avengers start with BTSC and win as the last faction standing.
- Thor, The God of Thunder (Donald Blake) - Any day but not two in a row, Thor may defy the will of the majority and act against the Celestial Punisher to prevent the lynch of any player IF he is able to RID his target.
- The ability is considered to be used only if it is successful.
- The saved player will not have their ID revealed publicly for that lynch.
- Must have the RID PMed to the host before the end of the day.
- He may submit multiple RIDs (1 for each player) pending the lynch results.
- This ability cannot be blocked
- Captain America, The American Super-Soldier (Steven Rogers) - To date Captain America is the only person to have successfully undergone the lost super-soldier project. Each night Captain America may stealthily attack a player of his choosing. But killing these strong willed Super Villains is incredibly difficult, even for a super-soldier. So it takes two consecutive successful attacks to kill a target. During the first attempt, Captain leaves a message for his target by PMing a message and the target’s name to the host. (A save may prevent the initial attack or the second attack). The host passes on the message to the target at the end of the night.
- If Captain America is blocked at night, his message will still go through, but the attack will not be successful.
- Hulk, The Big Green Guy (Bruce Banner) - Hulk takes his place as the most powerful of the Avengers. As Bruce Banner, he may use his incredible intelligence to transmit a message to The Celestial Host that will be included in the night post. In addition, each night he may Hulk-Out and easily block any player of his choosing from acting. (has no effect on Hawkeye’s auto-save of Loki) Hulk may not choose the same player two nights in a row.
- Iron Man (Tony Stark) - Over the years, Tony Stark has created a great collection of various armors that give him great abilities. However, his suits are powered by the mini arch reactor in his chest, which requires a toxic palladium core that is slowly killing him. As a result, he cannot use his suits until he can find an alternative power source. Thankfully, Tony's overly-cocky attitude, and military contracting business, allows him to blend in with the Super Villains. Once one of the other Avengers die, Tony will conveniently discover a new element that will allow him to safely utilize an Iron Man suit that will allow him to take over the abilities of his fallen comrade. Also, until he uses an Iron Man suit, Tony Start may have x1 or x2 voting ability during the day.
- If spied (at any time) he appears to have ‘Top Secret Clearance’.
- Iron Man may only gain an ability once during the game, and only at the time there is a deceased Avenger (decision must be made by the end of the cycle following the death).
- Iron Man may choose whether or not he takes over an ability. However, he will only have until the end of the cycle to choose whether or not to take on the ability. Example: If Captain America is lynched at the end of day 1, Iron Man can immediately take over Captain's ability, or assume it at the end of N2.
- Once Tony Stark takes over an ability, he loses his option for x2 vote weight.
Thanos (The Avengers - The Mad Titan) - Thanos can analyze and manipulate matter and energy. He has incredible intelligence, durability and strength. He also has telepathic ability, including mind-reading.
- Thanos is invincible for the first night and day.
- If spied, he influences the spy-er to only see him as having ‘Top Secret Clearance’.
- If blocked on an odd night, ability #1 (A&B) will be the one that is blocked (except for the 1st night). If blocked on an even night, the second ability will be blocked.
- Thanos will be outed when he dies
- Each night he may select from both of the following main two actions:
- Choose a player to mind read and learn their role PLUS how to copy their ‘original unique’ ability. He is the only one that is able to ID the members of the Secret Alliance through his mind reading ability. (This does not kill his target, and he is not subject to the limitations of any ability he gains (with the exception of the lynch stopper)).
- If he targets an Avenger, he will only gain the kill ability if he targets that night’s chosen killer.
- If he targets Father, he will gain the ability of the distinct attribute that Father is using that night).
- If he steals the lynch stopper (and uses it), he will be shown as being saved by Thor in the post.
- He may use one of his collected abilities from 1A on any chosen target.
- He may choose to NOT use one of his collected abilities the current night, in exchange for using TWO abilities the following night.
- They must be two abilities that are collected from two different roles.
- The two abilities do not have to be used on the same target.
- Any night he may choose a player to mentally enslave (the player will not be informed that they were targeted). The enslaved player will be willing to sacrifice themselves if Thanos is put into immediate danger of death.
- All death scenarios occurring on the same night will be redirected to the slave of his choosing.
- A player may not be sacrificed on the same night or the following day that they are enslaved (or on a night that they are meditating).
- Any night, Players may choose to abandon their night actions, in exchange for meditating and eliminating any mind-enslavery that they may or may not have effected them.
- Meditation is only successful on a night following a mind-enslavement (may not prevent mind-enslavement the same night that it is occurring).
- Choose a player to mind read and learn their role PLUS how to copy their ‘original unique’ ability. He is the only one that is able to ID the members of the Secret Alliance through his mind reading ability. (This does not kill his target, and he is not subject to the limitations of any ability he gains (with the exception of the lynch stopper)).
The Secret Alliance - (They have BTSC, Objective is to be the last standing) One Super Villain and one Avenger made a deal, that they would secretly defect from their respective groups and join forces to win this battle on their own. This independent faction has an additional ability to save (never the same player 2X in a row, & must specify which member will carry out the saving action), AND an additional secret ability.
- If either is spied, then they show up as they normally would individually.
- A successful save will appear to be made by someone with 'Top Secret Clearance'.
- The Secret Ability will be revealed publicly for the first member of the Secret Alliance to be Lynched, but nothing will be revealed if the second member is lynched.
- Secret Ability: Day RID kill
The Super Villains - One of the greatest Super Villain alliances to have ever existed. Their jobs are to take over the world. But first they must defeat the Avengers. Win as the last faction Standing.
- Justin Hammer (Iron Man 2 - Military Contractor) - Picks a target to protect each night. Cannot pick the same target to save twice in a row. Gains BTSC with General Ross if there is any form of interaction between them (If Ross and Hammer choose to save the same player, or if Hammer chooses to save Ross, or visa versa.) Hammer and Ross’ successful saves will be ambiguous in the night posts unless they meet.
- Cannot successfully save Loki.
- If spied just appears to have ‘Top Secret Clearance’.
- General Ross (Hulk - Girlfriend's Father) - Picks a target to protect each night. Cannot pick the same target to save twice in a row. Gains BTSC with Hammer if there is any form of interaction between them (If Ross and Hammer choose to save the same player, or if Hammer chooses to save Ross, or visa versa.) Hammer and Ross’ successful saves will be ambiguous in the night posts unless they meet.
- Cannot successfully save Red Skull.
- If spied just appears to have ‘Top Secret Clearance’.
- Father (Hulk - Nick Nolte's character) - In the sub-par and mostly detested movie Hulk, the script veered from the typical storyline of the Marvel universe. In it, Hulk's most powerful (yet most easily defeated) opponent was his father, who gained the ability to copy any form of matter. Here, he returns, and each night takes on the characteristics of a different form of matter, each giving him a different ability.
- Night:
- Stone (Save)
- Water (Spy)
- Steel (Block)
- Electicity (Kill)
- & beyond - Choice of any previous ability (but not the same two nights in a row).
- Father may select a player to use it against (including himself).
- Night:
- The Other/Chitauri Army (Avengers - Loki's partner conspirator) - Little is known of this mysterious figure, other than that he controls a mighty Chitauri army that he uses to support Loki. Only during the day, through interference by the Celestial Punisher, is The Other susceptible to having his distant communication severed with his minions on Earth. Because his interference is not appreciated by the Celestials, The Other will be removed at the end of the day if at any time he gets 50% or more of the total possible votes against him (this includes the influence of Obadiah's ability). The Other’s vote counts as zero (though the Obadiah may still gain from predicting The Other’s actions). Every night the Other may summon his minion army to incapacitate a chosen player for the night. May not choose the same target 2x in a row.
- Red Skull (Captain America - Main Villain) - Strong and agile with a long-standing influence over his Nazi minions. Each night he may command his minions to track down and spy upon a particular player. (PMs the Host the name of a player each night, and the Host PMs the role following the night post).
- The Abomination (Incredible Hulk - The other Monster) - After coveting the sheer power held by Bruce Banner/Hulk, Royal Marine Emil Blonsky was injected with the Hulk's blood and became a giant uncontrollable monster known as The Abomination. Any DAY but not two in a row, he may use his strength to trap a player for up to 48 hours (One night cycle and one day cycle, takes effect at the end of the day that the PM is received). Abomination must PM the player's name to the host before the day vote ends. The targeted player may not use any night or day power or vote, and will only able make only 1 post (If the player chooses to make more than one post, or chooses to make a vote that will not count, Abomination will automatically crush the player, and that player will be unable to act for another night). The targeted player will still be subject to the lynch AND night actions while knocked out. This action will not be mentioned in any post.
- He may awaken the target at any time (takes effect at the end of that cycle).
- He cannot knockout himself.
- If blocked at night, he would not be able to act the following day, and/or would be forced to release anyone currently knocked out.
- Obadiah Stane (Iron Man 1 - Tony Stark's Evil Mentor) - Not having true powers like the rest of the cast, Obadiah must be more careful. Each night he uses his superior intellect to set traps by making (1/4)*n different predictions about what specific night actions will take place (Role-Y will choose Player-X, and may not predict any sort of inactivity). For each trap that he lays correctly, the role that falls for the trap will lose their vote the following day, and Obadiah gets that additional vote in the following day’s lynch as his own. If he gets all predictions correct, he will have perfectly orchestrated his traps, and be safe for the night in addition to the additional votes that he gained. (the results of 1/4*n will always be rounded down but never equal less than 1, n=number of living players going into the night) **If blocked, he loses all guesses.
- Obadiah may not predict meditation.
- Hawkeye (Avengers - Bowman that was hypnotized by Loki) - A master spy and archer that has been hypnotized to abandon his fellow Avengers and obey Loki, even if it means his own death. Any night but not two in a row, Hawkeye has the ability to kill someone using a wide array of techniques. However, if Loki has a successful kill attempt made against him on the night that Hawkeye is attacking someone else, then Hawkeye abandons his initial target and kills the player that is targeting Loki (only applies to Captain America if it's the second attempt) and saves him. If Loki is attacked on a night where Hawkeye is inactive, he will just save Loki and will not kill the attacker. Hawkeye may not target Loki to kill.
- Loki (Avengers - Thor's evil brother, and the leader of the attack on Earth) - Master sorcerer, Loki has hypnotized many, Hawkeye being among them. As long as Hawkeye is alive, Loki cannot be killed, but while Hawkeye is alive Loki merely does the planning and does not act. However, if Hawkeye dies, Loki will take a hands-on approach to leading his army and will put his sorcery to use! Thereby gaining the following ability. Every night, Loki may choose to do only one of the two following actions (may not do the same action two nights in a row):
- Kill a chosen player.
- Create deadly force fields to protect a chosen player.
- If ANY night action is taken against the protected player, then the player making the action will be killed by Loki, and Loki will be fine (does not effect daytime abilities).
- Loki cannot be enslaved by Thanos.
Host's Summary[]

Game[]
(to avoid confusion, for everything below, baddies=minority/Avengers, and goodies=majority/Villains)
GREAT GAME EVERYONE!!!
I really enjoyed hosting this and I hope everyone had a great time playing! I just hate that it ended so quickly!
Activity: I have mixed feelings about the activity level in this game. I was only missing 2 night actions throughout the entire game, which was good. But at the same time there were only 13 pages of posts in the entire game (and if you cut out my own posts, and the pre and post-game discussion, the pages of discussion are nearly in the single digits). Though this limited amount of discussion didn't seem to have any negative consequences on the game. I think my biggest gripe was that Gamma was completely inactive when he could have theoretically saved himself on N3 if he had sent in his block action... but not really since he was blocked anyways
Questions: I also can't believe the amount of questions I received in this game! The game thread was silent, but I was absolutely drowning in questions via BTSC and PM! I have no idea what I would have done if I didn't have my phone with me, checking MM all the time!
Baddies: My Double-Agents, tt was wild to see how well the baddies were doing with their night targets! They took out the kill on N1, then the big lynch-altering role on N2, then another kill-type on N3! Pretty amazing stuff! I was just a little surprised that there was so little effort made to identify the S~A member. He gave himself away a couple times, but no one picked up on it (and would have been highly unlikely to do so unless they were involved in the game design ).
Thanos: You were really staying on top of the game and I was really hoping to see you make it to the endgame! I think things would have been very very different if... well, you know
Goodies: VERY well played! If the baddies didn't have such luck with their night targets I think this would have been a very different game! There were so many little things that happened that would have botched the baddie NK, like when Loki was going to be targeted while invulnerable, and The Other was targeted for a night kill, but then at the last minute the baddies changed their minds... It was nerve wrenching on my end!
Secret Alliance: My Double-Agent and Triple-Agent, this was absolutely your game. You're certainly not the most powerful faction. But in this game of extremely limited information, you used what you had to its maximum potential. Well done
Again, I hate that it ended so quickly, though I guess in the end it made sense. Going into the final day, the baddies' weight was 14, the goodies were about 9-12ish, and the S~A still had a faction weight of 19. And after the wild D4 it was the goodies with 5 against the SA with 19. Considering the S~A had the RID kill, the S~A would have had the weighted majority, and likely a guaranteed win, if anyone other than an S~A member was lynched.
Special Commendations[]
There's really not much to say. Kappa did a great job adding strategy and pointing out discreet holes, which certainly contributed to the S~A win. Beta and Epsilon did a great job trying to rally discussion, but maybe a little too late for Beta and there as an unfortunate limitation placed on Epsilon. Then there was Theta, who Dominated the S~A thread, Dominated the Baddie thread, and Dominated the game thread. He was, by far, the most active player, the most manipulative player, the most inquisitive player, probably the most stressed player, and was always trying to see all of the angles on every action taken in this game. So it gives me great pleasure to award Theta, AKA coolkid, the Most Valuable Player award for UMM6.

Day and Night Posts[]
Night 1: DC? What a Joke! |
---|
Through a series of events revolving around the pursuit of the tesseract cube, the various enemies of the Avengers unified together, mainly through the actions of Red Skull.
Now with such a powerful force, they set out to attack the world in an effort to dominate and split the continents between them. In response to the outcries of the innocents, the secret agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D. set up base in Stark Tower and instituted it's most powerful defensive weapon. The Avenger initiative. With amazing speed, S.H.I.E.L.D. assembled Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and The Hulk together. They knew they had amassed an amazing group of fighters. But is it going to be enough? Several miles outside the city, a comet stuck the earth, leaving a giant chasm in the ground. At least, it appeared to be a comet... Emerging from the crater, a giant beastly creature, a Titan, arose with an even larger grin on his face. "This... this will all be mine." Is said it itself. "And there's NO ONE that..." Just then, he was interrupted by a thunderous clap in front of him, as if another comet had landed. "You there! Darkseid!" The man dressed in blue yelled with authority as he pointed at the Titan. "I told you that if you ever returned to this planet I would be waiting!" The Titan replied is a booming gruff voice. "You are confused" he said as he looked the man up and down, observing his red knee-high boots, red cape, the bright red panties worn on the outside of his tights, and the large "S" on his chest. "Apparently in more ways than one." The Titan turned and faced the nearby city "I believe I will make you my capital." "Don't you DARE turn your back on me!" S-Man whined just before he burst forth towards the huge Titan. "I'LL SEND YOU BACK TO..." But suddenly, he was gone. Well, the recognizable stuff anyways. "As I was saying, there's NO ONE that can stop me." Thanos began to walk toward the city, leaving the red and blue (mostly red now) pile of super-mush behind him. "DC? What a joke!" He roared with laughter. The next morning's news was filled with terrible stories of attacks on innocent people, sighting of a asteroid that some were calling a UFO, and the applauded death of Delta. Every channel was showing it. There were unverified reports of a group of Heroes that had engaged in an epic battle the night before. But little else was known, aside from the body of Delta, discovered broken, with a holographic message box laying on his chest. The message showed this group of so-called heroes, with one man identified as Bruce Banner, communicating a message intended for the villains terrorizing the city. "Good morning Villains, I see you've had a rough night. But let me cheer you up. I decided to get you guys organized! (Just to give you a chance, since I can't see a band of rapscallions such as yourselves getting organized.) I'll just give this to you one cycle at a time, so you don't get too confused. "Today, you probably want to vote for Epsilon or Sigma. That'll take care of Thor or Iron Man, respectively. "Tonight, since you have 3 separate saves, I can't have you all targeting the same person. How about Hammer saves Omicron, Ross saves Sigma, and Father saves Lambda. That is sure to keep us away for the night. For the rest, The Other should block Beta, Red Skull should spy Gamma, the Abomination should trap Gamma, and Hawkeye should kill Beta. Good luck!” |
Day 1: Son of Odin |
---|
Just as the sun began to set, and everyone began to eagerly anticipate the upcoming night, they all began to feel... odd. At the same time, all of the people involved in the day's occurrences were brought to their knees in blinding pain. Their ears were ringing and their minds were overcome with a numbing pain.
"Just in case you were wondering what is going on, I am just trying to prove a point." said a voice that emanated in all of their heads, as the pain began to subside. "I am Brandonb the Punisher, of a race known as the Celestials, the most powerful beings in the universe. I saw the events of last night and today, and I have been very amused. Today you each chose someone that I will... 'remove'... from your battle." Then there was silence. Everyone waited in silence. Their heads throbbing. Everyone waited to hear their fate... Suddenly, the pain in Mu_'s head began to intensify. "YOU. I looks like YOU are the one to be punished today!" Mu_'s hearing became muffled and his vision went red. His blood began to leak from every orifice in his face. He uttered not a word, not a whisper as he dropped to his knees. But just before he hit the ground, he heard a voice, even through the pain, calling him back to consciousness. “You are not finished yet. You must stand up and fight again.” Lighting lit up the sky and clapped down beside Mu_ with a thunderous BOOM! When his eyes adjusted, he saw a figure standing next to him, he glanced down at Mu_ with a smile, then looked to the skies with one arm raised while clutching an epic hammer, and his voice echoed... "I am THOR! Son of Odin! Prince of Valhalla and God of Thunder! Hear me Celestial! You MUST spare this man today! My power is close to rivaling that of a Celestial, and I must warn you that should you proceed I will avenge this man's death!" "I see... Mu_ I must say that you are not worth the cost to kill you. You are free to continue this battle, for now anyways..." The pain in Mu_’s head begins to subside. "Your interference is unwelcome Son of Odin. Do not test me again..." |
Night 2: Valhallagher! |
---|
On the news this evening was an emergency public service announcement. The reporter, well lit and centered on screen, delivered the following message.
"Due to the recent outbreak of violence in our streets, the Mayor has instated a curfew for the city. He also urges all surrounding suburbs to also recognize the curfew for their own safety. Punishment for being out after curfew is that you will be..." For a moment he trailed off. Now obviously looking at the teleprompter, he shifted his eyes directly to the camera, and resumed speaking. "Lets face it. There's not going to be any punishment because no one is going to get caught breaking curfew. Well, not alive anyways. Police will not be out patrolling, and the only way anyone is going to know who broke curfew is by finding the bodies tomorrow. So I urge you, everyone in the viewing audience, please think of protecting yourself here. Don't obey the curfew because the Mayor instated it. Obey the curfew because you value your lives! I don't feel anything else really needs to be said on the subject. So, in other news, there was a wild lightning strike today, despite there not being a cloud in the sky. We now go to Bill Whetter, our meteorologist for..." That night as predicted, the streets filled with the forces of the various villains and their armies of minions. They mainly spent their time attacking looters that were breaking curfew, looting a little bit themselves, and on occasion, battling each other over territory. On this particular occasion, two large forces were facing off in the streets. With only a single city block of distance between the, the two sides prepared for war. "LAST WARNING!!!" A man in full military uniform standing a few steps behind a line of military personnel yelled into his megaphone. "If you do not back down I will be forced to open fire!" "General Ross! You are outmatched and should know that we have no intention of backing down!" Justin Hammer's voice boomed from a speaker being held by a man in a large mechanical suit. "You have more men, but we have superior gun power!" Knowing that he truly was evenly matched, if not outmatched, General Ross paused for a moment, debating whether this is the appropriate time to take his stand. Even if he is victorious, what state would he be in to continue his pursuit of the Hulk? "Mr. Hammer. I would like to discuss the terms of a truce with you. Meet me in the center of the field to discuss our terms." And like that, the two men met and realized that they had much more in common than they realized. In additional to realizing that they both had the same military level of Top Secret Clearance, they agreed that they would fair much better in allying their forces. General Ross with ample personnel but diminishing supplies, and Justin Hammer with ample mechanical gun suits, but a shortage of personnel to operate them. Not far away, a chuckle emanated from the roof of sky-scraper and echoed through the darkness. The man stood on the edge, looking down at the city, his eyes filled with resentment and opportunistic joy. "Delta...That weak fool. He was a great subject that just obeyed so well, but humans are generally just so weak. I'm wondering if anyone else realized that Delta's every move was directed by my special interests? Oh well, if you want something done right..." Loki's words trailed off as he saw his target step out onto the pavement, far below him. Loki smiled, stepped off the edge, and hurtled toward the ground.
Rho felt a hand on his shoulder, leaped forward a couple paces, and spun around to see who dared to bother him. "Hey there, you might recognize me. I used to be on TV!" Captain America joked. "Seriously though, you have two options. You can either come with me to be imprisoned at the S.H.I.E.L.D. compound, or you can be killed by my very eager, and less-than sober, buddies. I suggest you come with me before things get ugly." Rho then felt an overwhelming feeling, rage mixed with happiness, as he realized that the weakest member of the Avengers was standing before him without any apparent backup. So he seized on the opportunity before it left his grasp. "HA! You've got to be kidding me!" Rho laughed as he charged Captain America with superhuman speed. "This will be the last time you see my face!" And just as he closed in within inches of Captain America, a concern flashed through his mind. Why had he not lifted his shield?... "HULK SMASH!!!" No sooner had the concern formulated in Rho's head, than his momentum completely stopped and his arms were pinned to his sides. His feet were inches above the ground and his head and the tops of his shoulders were popped out from the top of Hulk's enormous grasp. He looked at the smirk on Captain's face and realized his struggling was hopeless. "BATTER UP!" Rho only had time to turn his eyes away from Captain America, just to see a giant grey rectangle swing towards him. Thor's swing was mighty, and his aim was true. And the mess was... substantial. "Sorry Hulk!" Thor laughed heartily when he saw the Hulk standing there, red with the spattered blood from Rho's head that had liquified on impact. "Maybe we can find you one of those front-row plastic sheets the audience uses when Gallagher smashes watermelons!?" Hulk was less than amused. "MOVE!!!" A man yelled as he crashed into Mu_, driving him back through the door of the building the had just exited. No sooner had they burst through the door of the building, than there was a huge explosion outside, causing all of the surrounding windows to explode inward into the building "Follow me! I'll get you to safety!" The man said as he grabbed Mu_ and led him to a large door marked "Top Secret Clearance". Mu_ watched as the man swiped a card and gained access. But just before the door closed behind them, Mu_ looked back to the street to see Loki glaring at him. "Have patience Mu_, your time will come..." The next morning the news was filled with updates on the activities of last night, as well as the names of those that had been found slain. And then again, a message was read that had been provided by Bruce Banner "Good job villains. While you didn't exactly do things according to plan, I commend you for finding Iron Man. Turns out, we just found out he was SA and want to dispose of him. However, since he will likely save himself tonight, we're asking for your help to take him out. A good lynch will do it. Sincerely, Bruce Banner" |
Day 2: Not So Invincible |
---|
"Mu_, Thor wouldn't dare pull such an act two days in a row, so it seems that today you don't have anyone to save you!"
"There's really nothing that can be said" Mu_ responded. "You're right. There's no reason to delay this any longer. Goodbye Mu_." Mu_ bowed his head as a fire erupted around him. The intense flames licked at his body. At first it was hardly noticeable through his armor. But in an instant the intensity was too much even for the invincible Iron Man. Just as the sun began to set, while the police were driving through the streets in one last pass to warn citizens to obey the curfew, they came across the dead body of Lambda. It seems that sometime during the day, the Secret Alliance figured out his identity and killed him when he thought he was safe at home. |
Night 3: Quiet Night |
---|
As the streets emptied of citizens and filled with villains, darkness once again consumed the city. However tonight was unlike anything previous. It was quiet... too quiet...
The sun began to rise on another day, and surprisingly there was little reported on the news. The body count was slim, as the only recognizable victim that was found was identified as Gamma. Also, somehow the news anchor received reliable information that an earlier death, by the name of Delta, was not a member of some covert villainous group known as the Secret Alliance. |
Day 3: The Fall |
---|
Dusk once again consumed the city and the remaining fighters braced themselves for another visit from the Celestial pain.
"I see that another of you has been chosen. I must say that I am excited to rid the Universe of this menace." The Celestial then concentrated on Sigma... "I'M NOT GOING DOWN SO EASILY!" Sigma roared. A baffling light show ensued as The Celestial Punisher, from his remote location in the cosmos, attempted to vanquish the incredibly powerful Mad Titan, as Thanos in response attempted to retain all of the energy that was being drained from him. Finally, the struggle came to an end as Thanos dropped to one knee. "I am defeated..." The Titan growled. "But I am not gone... The mistress of death is on my side, and though she calls for me now... SHE WILL HAVE ME RETURN!" In a brilliant flash he was gone. Was he vaporized? Had he teleported? Not even the Celestial Punisher knew exactly what happened. All that was certain was that he was gone... for now. |

“This… is interesting” Bb The Celestial Punisher commented as he once again telepathically breached the minds of the fighters that were scattered throughout the city.
“I am scanning the minds of you all and it appears that there is an equal desire to be rid of TWO of you? However, I cannot oblige, as I despise the interference of one among you that does not even put himself in peril. This Other character that merely sends his minions, while he sits in a throne somewhere distant in the cosmos. No, I will not recognize his desire to protect his accomplice, Loki.” His secret identity as Omicron revealed, Loki used his powers to protect himself from the Celestial, by forming an impenetrable shield. “I am too am a Son of Odin!” Loki laughed maniacally. “I will not be defeated so easily by you Celestial! You cannot breach my shield without destroying yourself!” “Loki…” The Celestial Punisher responded. “There are two things you must realize. First, I know that you were adopted. And second, I don’t need to breach your shield” Loki’s eyes grew wide with fear in response to this realization. And then… [elsewhere, at Stark Tower] “UUUUNGGHH!” Somewhere in Stark Tower a painful moan echoes through the halls. “You… how could you…” Omega gasped as he looked at his betrayer. Holding some form of sacred blade in his hand (likely some form of collectable of Tony Stark’s), his attacker replied “It’s better this way. Things used to be so much simpler, and I just want to go back to that.” Now standing over the weakening Omega, who was now laying in a pool of his own blood, the attacker pulled out his shield, knelt down over Omega’s body, and pressed the edge firmly on Omega’s throat. “I’m sorry Thor, my friend…” he said with tears in his eyes. “Do it now! Just get it over with!” Omega gurgled. The blade slid swiftly, without resistance, upward into Omega’s abdomen, under his ribs, and into his heart. And with a sickening and barely audible *THWUK*, the mighty god was gone. [Back to the Celestial Punisher] Before Loki had a chance to scream, the Celestial Punisher stopped. “Wait a moment… it seems that things have changed!” A sick feeling swept over everyone. “What is he talking about?” they all thought. “It looks like you’re not getting out of this… Iota.” The Celestial Punisher divided his attention. “It seems that your ally Omega is no longer with us. So you are once again there is a split desire between you and Loki.” “What?” Iota responded. “Now you’re starting to piss me off! And you won’t like it when I’m angry!” Iota warned as he took off his glasses. But nothing happened. “I’m sorry Bruce. But transforming into your Hulking state will not help you here, so I have suppressed it. Besides, your physical state doesn’t matter because I’m in your head.” “Goodbye Bruce. Goodbye Loki.” The Celestial Punisher said sincerely, as he removed them both from existence. Following those three deaths of Loki aka Omicron, The Hulk aka Iota, and Thor aka Omega, the sun once again set on the city. Only Theta, Kappa, Epsilon, and Beta remained. The night went by quietly, while Kappa, Epsilon, and Beta gathered and joined forces to take down the remaining Avenger. The expert tactician and super soldier, Captain America. The next evening, once all of the Chitauri Army had been brought in from the far reaches of the city, the Abomination, Red Skull, and the Other’s minions stormed Stark Tower, and quickly found their target in a massive multi-purpose room that also served as the building’s control room. Despite the easily overwhelming force, he had too much honor to hide. “It’s about time you brought the fight to me!” he gushed with confidence, despite the presence of the giant green monster, his oldest nemesis, and hoards of alien creatures spilling into the room. “Yoo doo re-alize zat you’re not leaving zis room alive?” Red Skull asked. Captain America raised his shield, “Maybe, but I won’t be going without a fight.” “Zair will be no need to fight.” Red Skull smirked, “Vee have zee celestial being on our side. He will dispose of you shortly…. But, vy not have a little fun? Hm?” No sooner had the words come out of his mouth, than the Chitauri army stampeded toward Captain America. “Any second now.”
Suddenly each and every member of the entire Chitauri army simultaneously collapsed onto the ground. “VUT IS ZIS?!?” Red Skull looked around angrily. Captain America smirked “The Celestial Punisher seems to have cut of that Other guy, controlling these bug people.” “But, but, zat is not right. Vee have zee majority!” Red Skull looked at the Abomination “Me and zee Abomination!” “I think you’re confused.” The Abomination walked over and stood next to Captain America. “You see, we’ve been working together since you guys showed up in this town. Two super soldiers from different origins. Between my tactical skills, and his brute strength… well, it’s a great match. And now we think it’s time that you go.” Moments later, the entire Chitauri Army and Red Skull himself dissolved into dust. “Thanks Celestial.” “I’ll warn you… your little alliance… I will be watching you. I have no real interest in who won this little pissing contest between these various factions. But the one thing I do desire is to see it finished. Should you two turn on each other, I will be back, to eliminate you both.” “We got you loud and clear!” “Can I ask, why did you form this alliance anyways?” “Back in my day, the most that we had to worry about was the Nazi army and their guns. But then there were all of these super beings, each one with the power of an army. Power enough to threaten a substantial portion of the planet. All I wanted to do was, essentially eliminate these living weapons, and make the world a safer place. And if the Abomination and I, at some point, come at odds, then I will gladly sacrifice myself to be rid of him, the remaining super power. But in the meantime, we’ll see how it works….” |

Actions (Plus Thoughts)[]
Night 1 |

--Villains-- "Today, you probably want to vote for Epsilon or Sigma. That'll take care of Thor or Iron Man, respectively. "Tonight, since you have 3 separate saves, I can't have you all targeting the same person. How about Hammer saves Omicron, Ross saves Sigma, and Father saves Lambda. That is sure to keep us away for the night. For the rest, The Other should block Beta, Red Skull should spy Gamma, the Abomination should trap Gamma, and Hawkeye should kill Beta. Good luck! ” --Independent-- Secret Alliance

Day 4 - Day 5 |

Day ends with what appears to be 3 votes for Omicron, 3 votes for Iota, and a random single vote for Epsilon. However, Beta does not have a vote. Making it 3 votes Omi, 2 votes for Iota, and 1 for Eps. The day then ends with the entire S~A faction still intact against 2 villains. The only night actions are a block and a spy so no deaths would occur on Night 5. The S~A has a voting majority because Beta does not have a vote, so the S~A first vote against Beta, then against Epsi, and probably RID kill him too for god measure. Game Over with a decisive S~A victory at the end of Day 5. When will the baddie faction ever realize that the Secret Alliance faction is the same thing to them, as the baddie faction is to the goodies? Nothing good happens when the goodies ally with the baddies. |
