Crime, death, and evil plague the world for every moment that passes. Those in power refuse to stop it, and those willing to stop it lack the power. That is, until a supernatural notebook fell to the surface world...

1) Players receive roles when the game starts.
2) Roles are assigned by Random.org.
3) Acknowledgement of other members of your faction is listed at the end of the roles section.
4) The game alternates between day and night (game time, not real time). The intro covers the first day, and the actual game begins at night.
5) Players may communicate in whatever way they like. Feel free to lie, cheat, and trick people in order to come out on top.
6) Dead players and non-players cannot post while the game is running. Sharing information with living players through any other means is also frowned upon. If you wish to have a "last will," some final words you will share in the event of your death, then provide them to me via PM before the time of your death and I will incorporate them into the post.
7) Handing out information just because you died or don't like your team is not allowed (violation results in list of shame, etc).
8) One may not request or volunteer screenshots, videos, etc. of another role screen or someone's password via the thread, a PM, or any other method. This includes screenshots of messages from me which confirm, depict, or otherwise suggest your role or alignment. This also includes extortion outside the game, or any other method used to acquire accurate information. In addition, arrangements which involve backing information with something of value are not allowed. The game is intended to be won via behavioral analysis, special roles, and praying a lot. It can be assumed anything which undermines this intention is not allowed. You will auto-lose if I find out you've been partaking in these ancient acts of evil. (For clarification, sharing the text that a PM supposedly contained is not in violation of this rule.)
If you have any questions, PM me or post in the thread.

Signing Up and General Notes
If you have any questions, PM me or post in the thread.
NEGLIGENT INVESTIGATOR - A pawn of the Kira Investigation Team, this member dutifully shuffles through the bureaucratic work on a daily basis. He knows little, but as an integral part of the investigation, he carries on his work regardless. Carries a fake ID, with his real name unknown to all other players, but there is nothing that can't be uncovered with a little investigation...
L - The leader of the Kira Investigation Team, whose sole goal is to find and eliminate Kira. His name is unknown and not recorded in any form, and as such he is essentially immune to the Death Note, with one exception...
SECOND L - In the case that L is somehow killed, the investigation team will vote to elect his successor amongst the remaining investigators during the following day. The second L is conferred some of the abilities of L. If the second L is somehow eliminated, another vote will be held to elect the next "second L". On the day of election, a lynch vote will not be held.
W - The right hand, aide, and advisor of L, W's alias is known to everyone, but like L, his real name is unknown.
KIRA - The first human owner of the Death Note, Kira is otherwise entirely identical to an investigator, save for his extraordinary intellect. Owns a Death Note.
NEGLIGENT CIVILIAN - A typical member of society, the civilian has absolutely no knowledge of the Kira affair, and does not participate in the voting process as they are not involved with the investigation. Civilians will win as long as they survive, regardless of the side that secures victory.
N - A detective rivaling L in intellect, N hides in the shadows as a normal civilian until L dies, at which point he surfaces and conducts his private investigation. Otherwise, identical to a civilian and inherits its powers.
FBI AGENT - A loyal guard of N, they assist with the investigation. Otherwise, appears like a civilian and inherits its powers.
M - Aligned with no other party but otherwise seeming like a civilian, M has the objective of acquiring the Death Note for himself. Wins if and only if he obtains all copies of the death note. Otherwise, identical to a civilian and inherits its powers. Knows the face and real names of L, W, and N.
MAFIA - Aligned with M, the mafia win if and only if M wins. Otherwise identical to civilians.
SECOND KIRA - The second human owner of the Death Note, this Kira possesses the gift of Shinigami eyes. Owns a Death Note. Otherwise, identical to a civilian and inherits its powers.
X-KIRA - An ordinary resident with a pro-Kira stance, X-Kira functions as a normal civilian until Kira relinquishes control of his Death Note. Until then, X-Kira is unaware of his own role.
Death Note - A tool of extraordinary power, this supernatural booklet allows those who own it to wield power over death.
Victory Conditions:
- Vote - The investigator will voice his suspicions towards a person whose identity he suspects to he Kira. The daily voting process is, however, democratic, so the investigator will have say equivalent to one vote. The person who receives the most votes by the end of the day will be arrested and executed. This applies to every role listed, unless specified otherwise.
- Power: Follow - At night, the investigator may shadow one other person and gain knowledge of any visits they make. Counts as a visiting action.
- Power: Protect - At night, the investigator may follow one other person and prevent any visits made to the target. Counts as a visiting action.
L - The leader of the Kira Investigation Team, whose sole goal is to find and eliminate Kira. His name is unknown and not recorded in any form, and as such he is essentially immune to the Death Note, with one exception...
- Vote - L's words carry more weight than the typical investigative member, and so his votes count for twice the weight.
- Passive: Investigative Immunity - L's name cannot be acquired via normal means; shinigami eyes are required.
- Power: Override - If L has overwhelming suspicion against a particular person, he may override the democratic process and use his position as head detective to force an execution on daytime. If, however, he executes an innocent player through this power, he will lose the ability to use it in any future votes.
- Power: Deduction - At night, L may use his intellect to evaluate existing clues. Adds 12.5% to the progress of solving the case each use; after the progress reaches 100%, L will arrive at the true identities of Kira and all accomplices.
- Power: Restraint - L may handcuff himself to another member of the investigative unit during the day, preventing both L and the target from using powers or visiting any other person that night.
SECOND L - In the case that L is somehow killed, the investigation team will vote to elect his successor amongst the remaining investigators during the following day. The second L is conferred some of the abilities of L. If the second L is somehow eliminated, another vote will be held to elect the next "second L". On the day of election, a lynch vote will not be held.
- Conferred Vote - L's words carry more weight than the typical investigative member, and so his votes count for twice the weight.
- Passive: Investigative Immunity - All data of the Second L is purged when he is elected, thus L's name can no longer be acquired via normal means; shinigami eyes are required.
- Conferred Power: Override - If L has overwhelming suspicion against a particular person, he may override the democratic process and use his position as head detective to force an execution on daytime. If, however, he executes an innocent player through this power, he will lose the ability to use it in any future votes.
W - The right hand, aide, and advisor of L, W's alias is known to everyone, but like L, his real name is unknown.
- Passive: ALL DATA DELETE - If killed via Death Note, W will erase all data pertaining to L, M, and N from the computers to prevent Kira from taking control of them. Because all information regarding the Kira investigation is erased, it resets the progress bar to 0%. If killed via any means other than the Death Note, when L expires, every member of the Kira Investigation Team will die simultaneously as Kira obtains the real names of all investigators involved.
- Power: Follow - At night, W may shadow one other person and gain knowledge of any visits they make. Counts as a visiting action.
- Power: Surveillance - W may install video surveillance equipment in the home of one member during the day, but will fail to show up to the daily meeting. At night, he may observe that person's actions through the plethora of video cameras, and gain complete knowledge about any night actions made.
KIRA - The first human owner of the Death Note, Kira is otherwise entirely identical to an investigator, save for his extraordinary intellect. Owns a Death Note.
- Passive: Acute Perception - As a perceptive person, Kira will be aware of any person who follows him, as well as any surveillance equipment installed in his house while he was absent.
- Power: Investigation - Leaves for one person's home and acquires their real name during the night. If they do not visit anyone else, he will see their face. Counts as a visiting action.
- Power: Relinquish Note - Anonymously relinquishes possession of his Death Note at night, giving it to X-Kira. At this point, X-Kira becomes aware of his own role.
NEGLIGENT CIVILIAN - A typical member of society, the civilian has absolutely no knowledge of the Kira affair, and does not participate in the voting process as they are not involved with the investigation. Civilians will win as long as they survive, regardless of the side that secures victory.
- Power: Broadcast - Appears on Sakura TV as a guest of their infamous pro-Kira program.
- Power: Visit - At night, calls another player and arranges to visit him or her on the following night. The target will be informed that another person will visit them the following night. When the visit occurs, neither party may visit any other on the same night, but this does not stop any other non-visiting night actions, such as arranging another visit. Counts as a visiting action on the second night.
N - A detective rivaling L in intellect, N hides in the shadows as a normal civilian until L dies, at which point he surfaces and conducts his private investigation. Otherwise, identical to a civilian and inherits its powers.
- Passive: Investigative Immunity - N's name cannot be acquired via normal means; shinigami eyes are required.
- Power: Analysis - Usable only if L dies. At night, analyzes clues about Kira within his own investigation. N contributes 5% each night to the progress bar, with an additional 2.5% for each FBI agent alive. If N has declared, an extra 12.5% is added per use.
- Power: Declare - Usable only if L dies. Makes his role known to everyone, and inherits L's voting powers.
FBI AGENT - A loyal guard of N, they assist with the investigation. Otherwise, appears like a civilian and inherits its powers.
- Power: Surveillance - Tracks one target of his choice and gains knowledge about whom that person visits during that night.
- Power: Blockade - Protects one target of his choice and prevents any other person from visiting them that night.
- Power: Execute - Kills a player in his own brand of vigilante justice. However, because the operation is not authorized by the Bureau, the FBI Agent is suspended until the end of the game, at which point he will be put to death himself if he wrongly killed someone.
- Power: Search - Covertly searches one civilian's possessions at night. If that civilian owns a death note and is visiting someone else that night, it is given to the FBI agent, and that civilian's note is replaced by a fake.
M - Aligned with no other party but otherwise seeming like a civilian, M has the objective of acquiring the Death Note for himself. Wins if and only if he obtains all copies of the death note. Otherwise, identical to a civilian and inherits its powers. Knows the face and real names of L, W, and N.
- Passive: Investigative Immunity - M's name cannot be acquired via normal means; shinigami eyes are required.
- Power: Chocolate - Eats a bar of chocolate.
- Power: Blackmail - Blackmails the investigative unit into handing over any copies of the death note that they are in possession of. May be used only once.
MAFIA - Aligned with M, the mafia win if and only if M wins. Otherwise identical to civilians.
- Power: Investigate - Acquires a photo and the real name of the target at night. Because typical mafia members lack the intellect necessary to conduct a covert search, if they attempt to investigate an FBI agent or anyone under their protection, they will be noticed and captured.
- Power: Theft - Steals from a target of choice. Because typical mafia members lack the intellect necessary to conduct a covert operation, if they attempt to steal from a person who is home, they will be captured by the police and executed on the spot.
- Power: Delivery - By visiting M, gives all data and items collected to him.
SECOND KIRA - The second human owner of the Death Note, this Kira possesses the gift of Shinigami eyes. Owns a Death Note. Otherwise, identical to a civilian and inherits its powers.
- Power: Hide Note - The Second Kira may hide away any Notes in her possession at night, preventing FBI agents from successfully finding a Death Note in her possession as long as the Note remains hidden. While the notes are hidden, however, the second Kira cannot use it. Counts as a visiting action.
- Power: Retrieve Note - The Second Kira may retrieve any Notes she has hidden at night, to enable her to use the note once more. This again will expose her to FBI searches. Counts as a visiting action.
- Power: Shinigami Eyes - During the day, acquires the real name of a civilian. as well as knowledge of whether or not that person owns a Death Note. Cannot be used on members of the Investigation or SPK, as she cannot enter the buildings at which the day conference is held.
- Power: Visit - Functions like a normal civilian visit, although she will acquire the real name of the person as well as a photograph of their face. If she visits Kira, she will be able to transfer all names and photographs she acquired to Kira that night. Counts as a visiting action on the second night.
X-KIRA - An ordinary resident with a pro-Kira stance, X-Kira functions as a normal civilian until Kira relinquishes control of his Death Note. Until then, X-Kira is unaware of his own role.
- Power: Shinigami Eyes - Acquire the real name of a target during the day with 100% success, as well as knowledge of whether or not that person owns a Death Note. Activated when he becomes aware of his own role. Will require up to five days to obtain the name for L and N (if publicly claimed) due to the security measures in place.
Death Note - A tool of extraordinary power, this supernatural booklet allows those who own it to wield power over death.
- Conferred Power: Sakujo - If the Death Note owner has seen a person's face and acquired their real name, they may write the name of that person in the Death Note at any time, guaranteeing their death. The death conditions may be specified, as to allow Kira to control their actions prior to death as well as the time of death. Consult the Death Note Rules for details. As many names can be written into the death note per night as necessary, although the Death Note owner must have seen the face and know the name of the target.
- Conferred Power: Transfer - A Death Note owner gains the ability to give the Note to any other person during a night visit; both parties will be aware of each other's identity as well as the nature of the transfer.
- The Investigation Team encompasses the following characters: NEGLIGENT INVESTIGATOR, L, W, and KIRA. Publicly, they all appear as INVESTIGATOR.
- Civilians include the following roles: NEGLIGENT CIVILIAN, N, FBI AGENT, M, MAFIA, SECOND KIRA, and X-KIRA. Publicly, they all appear as CIVILIAN.
- L and W are roles known to all INVESTIGATORS. Investigative squad members know who each other are, but not who KIRA is.
- KIRA and SECOND KIRA know each other, as well as the identity of X-KIRA. X-Kira will not know he is X-Kira until Kira relinquishes control of the note. X-Kira appears as a normal civilian.
- M and MAFIA are aware of each other's identities.
- N and FBI AGENT are aware of each other's identities.
Victory Conditions:
- The INVESTIGATOR alignment wins when M, KIRA and SECOND KIRA are eliminated, as well as X-KIRA if the role is active, with both Death Notes in the possession of Investigation-aligned players.
- The KIRA alignment wins if L, M, and N are eliminated, with both Death Notes in the possession of Kira-aligned players.
- The M alignment wins when they control both Death Notes.
