Welcome to Esthetu (pronounced eest-thay-tah), City of Dragons, and site of the Legendary Adventurers’ Meeting, a gathering of talented adventurers with a wide variety of skill sets. Some of you are warriors, used to fighting with swords or bows. Some of you are magic users, wizards studying the arcane arts, druids who are given power by their unity with nature, or clerics who call upon the healing arts of the gods (well, the other, less important gods). Others combine might and magic, imbuing their arrows with the arcane spells or blessing their weapons to be more powerful.
You’ve all been drawn here for the chance to meet other adventurers with interesting tales of fighting monsters or rescuing princesses, and to hone your skills and become even better at what you do. While here, you also have a chance to see some of the beautiful temples of the dragon gods Bahamut and Tiamat, who are said to watch over the city.
However, dark forces have gathered in secret among the members of the Legendary Adventurers’ Meeting. Rumor has it that two among you are secretly practicing the evil art of necromancy, a despicable magic that only those with the blackest of souls can use. These necromancers want to quietly kill the rest of you, then reanimate your corpses to add fodder to their growing army of undead, which they plan to use to conquer the world for themselves. The necromancers are crafty, and have numerous powerful magics at their disposal (it is even said that they can convert the purest of adventurers to their cause, although only once). However, they are still only human (for now), and they can be defeated if you discover their identities and slay them first.
Should you succeed, you will be lauded as heroes. Should you fail, the safety of the entire world may be at stake.
TL;DR: Roles have been sent out. Game actions other than kills can start now. Petitions can be signed, conspiracy/backup lists can be updated for tomorrow, seers can inquire about roles, desperadoes can activate, superheroes can become become investigator/invulnerable for tomorrow, etc. This counts as Day 0, and Day 1 starts tonight at 11 pm. At that point, mafia can make kills.
Everyone should poke asjm, drosophyllum, Daniel Grazian, and svolz to post their freaking intros. Those poor players don't have their roles yet. How sad.
