You are Leafia, Town Beloved Gardener. Whenever you rand mafia, you make a ⁠leafias-garden channel, though you’re often the only one who posts in it (apart from that one time when Zone got really mad at you and destroyed your garden ;-;). Wolfing takes a lot of investment, so this time we’ve randed you town to make sure you have enough time to actually tend your garden.

Also, while there is at least one other kind of Mark, there is no Right Heart Half Mark. Sorry )

You are tutuu, Town Toodle Poodle. You love to tease Arctic about taking your favorite dogboy for a walk, and this time you’ll actually get the chance. You previously announced to the site that you were dating, but since you weren’t actually dating, you aren’t lovers; still, we couldn’t possibly leave your unique bond out of FAM, especially not when you both remind us about it so frequently.

Town Trust Faller

Leap Into the Abyss
Day Action — 1-shot Classified
Put your trust in target unallied player. If they are a member of the Town , you join a private chat with them, lose Enigmatic, and join their Guild; they learn your alignment. If they are not a member of the Town , you die.

You are Garfooled, Town Trust Faller. You hosted the legendary game “I’ll Catch You,” in which two-thirds of the game eliminated themselves before the first twenty-four hours had passed, of which four of those players did so in less than a hundred posts.

Staggering Shot
Immediate Day Action — Key
Spend 2 Justice Charges to weaken target player that has been targeted by at least 2 ITA shots this Day, and at least once by you. That player becomes Vulnerable until the beginning of the next Day. (You shooting them twice works, you and another player works, two other players does not work.)
