They were Leto Almyra, Empire Negotiator.

Leto Almyra

Empire Negotiator

The cool and collected Leader of the Eagles, training to be a negotiator and a diplomat. She cares about the wellbeing of the students of her house and acts as a counselor for them. She sensed that something troubled Athena and offered to help her: despite her warmth, Athena spurned her efforts.

Ability: Viva La Revolución
Leto can feel the emotions of people who she can hear speaking. Using this ability, she is a formidable diplomat and leader.

They were Etienne du Malavois, Empire Crown Prince.

Etienne du Malavois

Empire Crown Prince

image

The reserved Leader of the Wolves, the Crown Prince of the Flumes, and studying to know everything about history, economics, and political science. They spend most of the time encased in their study, and when they do go out, their eyes are always baggy. Though they rarely speak unsolicited, they are ready to provide advice on any of their House members’ problems, if they can catch them outside.

Ability: Picture of Dorian Gray

Etienne can slow down or speed up time by up to a factor of about fivefold for people that they touch with their hand. Whether it slows up or speeds down depends on which hand they use to activate it. They can use it on themselves.

Guava has failed to meet his win condition and loses.

He was Feste Pantaleon, Empire Secretary.

Feste Pantaleon

Empire Secretary

Always running around with a stack of papers. Athena rarely sees him around except in transit, and when she does, he’s always asleep on a couch. He’s the Secretary for the Student Council and sits in on many of their meetings: on top of that, he organizes almost all large-scale school events.

Ability: Thus Spoke Zarathursta

Feste can create small objects from accurate detailed sketches and blueprints that he draws. This taps into his body’s physical resources to do so, and thus he can only create a small amount of mass per day. He can work for months at a time to create larger objects in this way, but he often doesn’t see a reason to.

Beancat has failed to meet her win condition and loses.

She was Athena di Angelari, Empire Marksman.

Athena di Angelari

Empire Marksman

Athena is an amateur gunsmith and a first-year Eagle, transferring from another school in the Crown States after her family caved to mounting internatioinal pressure to send her here for her power. She declined to go for a year because of her older sister’s disappearence four years prior. She tried her hardest to get on her feet at the new school with Pallas’ ghost at every corner…

Ability: The Sound and the Fury

Bullets fired by Athena from a gun become a purely psychic cutting power. These can sever memories from someone’s body, the severity corresponding to the damage the bullet would cause were it physical. These severed memories usually dissolve in the air like wisps, but if they are substantial or have significant emotional or personality aspects, they can coalesce into a spectral or even a physical form.

Female — April 19 — 15 — INSANE

Sadbi has failed to meet their win condition and loses.

They were Ivy Pantaleon, Empire Contest Host.

Ivy Pantaleon

Empire Contest Host

Very daydreamy and idealism-oriented, a stark contrast to their younger brother. They spend their time walking or napping around the campus (not unlike his brother), or in their studio room painting. They took interest in Athena initially, but she brushed them off.

Ability: Through the Looking Glass

Ivy can expend power to create an aura around them that causes the world to reshape itself around the thoughts and desires of the people within the aura. When the aura leaves, things go back mostly to how they were before. Their usual limit is a few hours a day only within approximately a room’s size, but with special aids they can cover larger areas or longer spans of time.

Italy has won. They were

Mars Ultor

Ancient Spirit Seraph

Mars Ultor, the god of war, signifies action, vengance, and victory. Their combat methods are the closest to resembling traditional swordfighting, and are strongest at close to medium range: fighting them is not as tricky as the others when primed with experience fighting humans. That is not to say, however, that they are not to be feared: their skill is without rival. Do not confront without an ace up your sleeve.

—-Sarasvati’s Journal on the Worldly Spirits

Ability: Savior of the Broken

Alexandra has a large spectral Arcanine living inside of them that grows restless when they sense somebody who has killed or significantly contributed to the death of another: otherwise, the Arcanine lies dormant, unable to be woken. This manifests as the strong scent of blood to them. They greatly increase Alexandra’s strength and agility, and if they awaken fully, they can be seen spectrally guiding their strikes.

Nonbinary — June 12 — 18 — INSANE

Ancient Spirit Archivist

Vesta, the goddess of the hearth, represents comfort and home. She can output a much greater power than average from long-range, but is exceptionally weak to most kinds of damage. Her ghost powers manipulate the heart and are often very effective against humans. Best to make efforts to remove her first if fighting her in a group, or she could deal a lethal battering.
—-Sarasvati’s Guide on the Worldly Spirits

Ability: Atonement
Meredith’s writing can warp the fabric of reality. When another person reads something that she has handwritten and deeply wishes for it to be true with all their soul, they can make small figments of it become true.

Ancient Spirit Blackmailer

Apollo, the god of Music, represents creativity, light, and healing. His powers are flexible, usable as both offense and defense, and is best at range, as his archer namesake suggests. His powers are firmly based in the shadow energy, and can be planned against accordingly: wax earplugs are a godsend.

Ability: Rage Against the Dying of the Light
Phoebus can expend his own life force to close wounds and heal internal physical damage in the bodies of people who are about to die. Doing so will keep them from dying and allow them to recover from their injuries over the next few months, but strains his consciousness intensely for the next few days.

Ancient Spirit Ghost Pirate

Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, represents the winter and rebirth. She plays a support role most of the time, but is still somewhat dangerous when cornered. Handle first, if at all possible: her powers make her allies all the more powerful. Easiest to deal with if you can isolate her somehow.
—-Sarasvati’s Journal on the Worldly Spirits

Ability: Three Musketeers
Persephone can channel the spirits of the dead that she is close to, as long as they agree. This allows her to communicate to the spirits as if they still walked the earth, and she can channel little bits of their powers sometimes. She is the only one that can see or hear them.

Female — October 16 — 16 — SANE
Charon — Hisuian Typhlosion (F)

Ancient Spirit Puppetmaster

Selene, the goddess of the moon, signifies change, variability, and deception. Her powers are great in comparison to the other Spirits, as she can, at her utmost limits, [[REDACTED]]. However, with a clear mind, her formidable psychic powers can be entirely nullified.

—Sarasvati’s Guide on the Worldly Spirits

Ability: Rappacini’s Daughter

Adrian can use illusions to change her physical appearance or make small objects appear or disappear while in contact with her body. Doing this consistently takes large amounts of focus, as well as not making the illusions appear or disappear erratically. These illusions can affect all of the senses.

Female — September 13 — 16 — FRAGILE

With their victory, Atlas has met their win-condition. They were

Gabriel Moretti

Empire Sacrificial Lamb

Gabriel Moretti

Empire Sacrificial Lamb

An almost totally silent girl who communicates primarily through sign language. She has a knack for disappearing and appearing suddenly, but she often clings to Violetta when they’re together. Athena talked to Vi and she said that Gabriel’s a really sweet and caring girl, and that she’s just a little shy: Athena thinks that’s an understatement. Almost everyone else in the school has never been able to get a word out of her.

Ability: Witch of Miracles
Gabriel can, by snapping her fingers, travel back in time. Only she and anyone she is in physical contact with retains memories from the previous timeline. She and any other people return to the state their body was in during that time. The amount she goes back increases exponentially with the amount of time she can focus. If her focus is broken, the attempt to go back in time fails.

Female — November 1 — 16 — INSANE


Fate Smeared by Tricks and GadgetsPassive
Your inventory starts with the following six items.
:butterfly: 3x Actor’s Script (Day) — Choose a player. You learn their full role.
:butterfly: Charm of Madness (Night) — Choose a player. All their abilities will be removed.
:butterfly: Charm of Invisibility (Night) — Choose a player. All manipulative and investigative actions on them fail tonight.
:butterfly: Charm of Fear [Uncharged] (Night) — Choose a player. If they die during the day, this charm becomes charged. They know this. :arrow_right: Charm of Fear [Charged] (Night) — Choose a player. They die.

Full Moon’s CursePassive

If you have no lives remaining, you die.

Claws of DutyNight

If you lose a life by an Ancient Spirit tonight, they die.

You know all members of the Cult of Sarasvati, the informed minority. They are as follows:

Italy

Artemis was:

Artemis Caroligni

Empire Huntress

image

Known as the school’s sharpshooter, Artemis is also valued for her level-headedness. She is useful to have on planning committees, although she has a tendency to overdesign, as well as being difficult to get ahold of in the first place: her input is often sought, but most people are too scared to ask her for it if she doesn’t express interest. Athena sees her walking in the forest brooding a lot, but never tried to approach her.

Ability: Death Shall have No Dominion
Artemis can control flecks of her blood with her mind: they turn golden when controlled in this way. She can hurl them with high force, allowing her to either use it as a melee weapon or to redirect projectiles coated in her blood to curve arbitrarily.

Female — December 23 — 16 — INSANE


Ghost of a GirlPassive, INSANE
You know all cursemarked players.
These are players that the dead bear malice.
