Welcome to Ritual Mafia V
In Ritual mafia The Congregation (town faction) must fight against The Heretics (mafia faction) in order to gain the favor of their gods. How do you gain their favor? By sacrificing your own teammates on a Ritual, of course!

Rules
- Follow the Global Rules and Forum Game Rules.
- Alt accounts are allowed. Disclosing your identity to hosts is optional.
- If you havenât posted in the thread for a while, you will be prodded for inactivity. If you donât respond to that prod in 24 hours, you will be force replaced.
- Players are not allowed to use big letters. These are reserved for the host.
- SoD / EoD will be at (disregard date, refer to time only) 2024-02-01T17:31:00Z.
- Most mechanics are similar to those from Ritual Mafia IV, except for the new Grey Sister congregation role created by N.1.
Gameplay
- Day is divided in two phases: Ritual Phase and Execution Phase.
- There wonât be a Ritual phase on Day 1.
- Ritual Phase lasts 24 hours.
- During the Ritual Phase people are able to vote for a person to sacrifice. The person with the highest amount of votes at the end of the phase will be sacrificed and their Ritual abilities will trigger.
- Ritual votes are done privately through your classcards.
- Someone will always be sacrificed during this phase, and if there is a draw or no one gets any votes then it will be decided by RNG.
- âThe Ritual was interruptedâ message means that the playerâs Ritual abilities were prevented from triggering because of an ability.
- Self-voting is allowed in both Ritual and Execution phases.
- Execution Phase lasts 48 hours or until majority is reached.
- During the Execution Phase people are able to vote for a person to execute. If the majority has voted said person, they will be executed. Otherwise, whoever has the most votes at EoD will be executed. If there is a tie vote at EoD, the execution will be randed.
- Voting âNo executionâ is a valid option, and if majority is reached the day will end without an execution.
- You can submit the target(s) of your Ritual effects at any point in time before you are sacrificed so the Ritual effects take place immediately.
- Players have until the end of the next night to submit their Ritual effects (Ritual of Initiation and Ritual of Death have to be submitted beforehand since they must take effect immediately). Ritual of Leadership must be submitted before the Execution Phase ends or it will be lost.
- If the sacrificed player hasnât picked their targets on time, their Ritual ability will be skipped. If said player is a Heretic, other Heretics will be able to choose a target for them. Ritual of Initiation cannot be skipped this way, and if no one picks a convert target for any reason, it will be picked randomly.
- Nights will be 24 hours long.
- During the night you can submit your actions through your classcard.
- The Heretics have a factional kill. One of them can perform it once per night instead of their normal abilities.
- Soul Rip, Dark Portal and Mask of Death count as the factional kill and only one of those abilities may be used on the same night. You cannot perform the factional kill on a night where someone uses one of those abilities.
- You cannot target yourself with an ability unless stated otherwise.
- Players can only use one day ability each day and one night ability each night, unless stated otherwise.
- The deadline for day/night abilities is 1 hour before the day/night ends.
- The Heretics will have a day/night chat.
- At any time, you can submit a message of up to 1000 characters (aka âLogsâ) in your classcard. The most recent version of your logs will be posted publicly when you die.
- There can be a maximum of 3 of each non-unique classes.
- There will be limited feedback. Most classes will only get âYou diedâ as feedback. The exceptions are the following:

Other mechanics and interactions
Other mechanics/interactions
- Conflicting abilities will be cancelled. For example, two Enchanters trying to redirect the same player to different targets would cause said player to not be redirected at all.
- Enchanterâs Mind Control can only redirect targeted abilities.
- Dying because of Voodoo Link counts as a suicide.
- Self-killing or suicide abilities cannot be healed or prevented in any way except being occupied or by Voodoo Link.
- Traitors can also be converted with Ritual of Initiation. This will change their class to a Heretic class of the same type and add them to the Heretics chat.

- If you are redirected during Change of Faith you will know you were redirected, but not to which player and get a result based on the new target.
- If an Enchanter redirects an ability that targets more than 1 player, only the first target will be redirected.
- Martyrâs Penitence changes effect when used on a target, whether it was successful or not.
- If your limited use ability fails for any reason, you will still spend a use.
- If a Channel Spiritâs target is changed, the ability will fail.
- A target of Channel Spirit will not get notified when the effect ends due to conversion.
- The Medium will visit the targets of the channeled spirit.
- If the last Heretic is sacrificed, The Congregation will NOT win, since the conversion triggers immediately (unless their Ritual abilities are disabled somehow).
- If two Witch Doctors use Voodoo Link on each other and one of them dies, then both will die.
- Immunity to ânegative effectsâ includes protection from all forms of occupation and redirection (except if specified as bypassing occupation or redirection immunity), disabling Ritual abilities, tampering with the Ritual vote, tampering with the flip, framing (except Grey Sisterâs Disguise).
