Foallean Religion

Not much is known about the religion practised within the Fortress of Lies! Documentation is scarce, centered around the inscription (depicted above), which, translated into Toki-Eng-Litch, reads ā€œSETUPPE DESIGNE IS MINE PASSIONEā€. The meaning of these words is unclear, and so historians and archeologists have to engage in Interpretation, the main subject of this unit of your course.

Interpretation is the key to historical analysis! For example, some historians, such as Adoris Boneweave III, believe this to be an exultation of the Foalleanā€™s high valuation of the foundations of various fields: they were famous, after all, for deriving from first principles things such as language in the course of their daily jobs, referred to by the archaic term ā€œGAMEā€. This is referred to as the ā€œOrthodoxā€ view, and is held by most respectable historians! Others, however, disagree: Unlael Iridum has offered the alternative interpretation that this statement was in fact sarcastic, and it refers to something else.

EXCERCISE:
Come up with two different ways historians could potentially interpret the common phrase ā€œTo the horse, the lightā€, assuming they know nothing about the context of that phrase. Give reasons why!

- Historical Foundations 2: The Fortress Of Lies, Alejandro Rodriguez et. al., 2499.

PSA

I think itā€™s important to note that impartiality is not neutral! For example, in Historial Foundations 2, a textbook that is ~still in usage today (Iā€™m not all that connected in education circles, please correct me if Iā€™m wrong.), the orthodox view of the Fortress Of Liesā€™ religious motto, which is agreed with by 100% of all respectable historians, is presented as totally equal to the sarcasm hypothesis, which, as long-time readers of this blog will know, is based on no conceivable evidence and in fact exists to support a political agenda. Itā€™s important to pay attention to this sort of thing!

The truth in some cases, of course, emerges very quickly indeed: over the course of 12 hours, a series of facts were drawn like water from the aquifer of reality:

  • They were, in fact, in 2023.
  • They had seemingly all been channeled, by unknown means, into the bodies of the inhabitants of the Fortress.
  • They had gained the skills, goals, and some part of the beliefs of those bodies.
  • They really, really wanted to kill someone.

In the shadow of a rampart, a six-sided face watched. If you looked closely enough at it, it would seem to be screaming noise made out of silence. Words such as:

JEOPARDY, BIRD, DRONE, FLOCK, KILL, CREATURE, KILL, CREATURE, KILLā€¦

The droning incessant. As the light drew in, whatever this beast was drew minds in itsā€™ wake, eyelids fluttering in mouthless laughter. Was this the thing that had drawn them there?

And then they awoke. A body fell on the floor, leaking a substance that was very definitely not blood: purple. Looking at it for too long caused images of hatred: bullies, bosses, hounds, tigers, oh gods, oh so many beasts, to shimmer in your peripheral vision.

ā€œWeā€¦ I remember one of us doing this.ā€ she said. Never mind who she was. She couldā€™ve been anyone. She was probably you.

There was another body, two. Six faces. Utterly still. Yet, they were not home: the patent truth of monsters is that their dissolution is never enough. Both cadavers seemed disastrously unimportant in the face of it. Weeping, they gave burials and libations of scorn, and entered quarters hewn for other flesh: flesh they were now borrowing.

There was nothing left but to wait, then act.

@Creature has been executed. He was:

Min


You are Min, Mafia KPOP Star. Always in a nebulous state of leaving and returning, your based way of speaking always ensures your presence is known when you do choose to make an appearance. Due to this iconic method of speech, you can efficiently confuse those who do not understand you.

Also sidenote but nct 127 does slap ty ty for rec.

Unexpected Reentrance (Passive): All non-factional night actions you take are processed before all other night actions.

;awvuajnuavwvaiojwef (Night): Roleblock a player. If they are a member of the Town, also doctor them.


You win the game if no more threats to the Mafia exist or nothing can prevent that from happening.

Night 1 begins and will end in 24 hours, at 2023-06-27T18:00:00Z. Actions are due 2 hours before the end of the night.

SHEEP results will be revealed shortly. An asynchronous night event will be posted afterwards.

for anyone who is invested in the SHEEP scores, there has been a minor change in the top placings as a result of a mistake on my end

Tiebreaker Question

T. As of this post being posted, how many messages are there in the FAM3 hosting Discord?

Formatting:

Please send your answers as a numbered list. You do not need to restate the question, just provide a number and your answer.

Announcement:

The Elden Beast is present in the game.


Host Disclaimer: This announcement was supposed to be made at start of day 1. :joy_cat:

@thepigeonnyc has been modkilled. They were:

sulit


You are sulit, Town Cat Vigilante. You are known for many things, but this time weā€™re focusing on the most important one: your cats. Your grey cat, Honeycat, is an iconic FoL cat, but youā€™ve also adopted two other cats, including a black cat named Void. This game, Voidcat will be represented by a void.

Notorious L-I-T (Passive): The Mafia are aware that your role is present in the game.

Void (Night): Curse target player to go to the Void . It will be publicly announced that a player has been Cursed, and will be sent to the Void at the end of the Day. A player sent to the Void dies. If you die, all Curses are removed.

Toast (Passive): You are in a neighborhood called Toastā€™s Domain, which will close when you die. Players you kill will join Toastā€™s Domain instead of dead chat if they are a member of the Town or have an unknown alignment. If a player in Toastā€™s Domain is ever revealed to not be a member of the Town, they are removed.

Honey (Cycle, Immediate): Remove chosen player from Toastā€™s Domain.


You win the game when the Mafia and all other threats to the Town have been eliminated.

Compensation for the affected faction(s) may be given.

DO NOT DISCUSS MODKILLS, OR COMPENSATION.
