Welcome to this Mafia roleplay, which a variant of the classic party game Mafia. In this roleplay, each participating character is secretly assigned a role that is either associated with the town or the mafia. The mafia eliminates one town member per night while masquerading as ordinary citizens during the day.

The roleplay is divided into two parts: night and day. During the night, mafia members secretly plan to murder a town member and devise a devious day-time strategy.

During the day, the entire cast of surviving players debate who among them is aligned with the mafia and votes to execute someone. The game alternates between these two phases until either all of the mafia are eliminated (town wins) or the number of remaining mafia members equals or exceeds the number of remaining town members (mafia wins).

The Shores of Nakanotorishima

Nakanotorishima is an island, and as such it is surrounded by sand. Soft, smooth sand, untouched for eons. Sand of the most pristine quality, even. You can only marvel at the transcendent beauty of each granule, flawlessly shaped by the ethereal freshwater waves of the Expanse. I'll spare you the details.

Mussels, clams, shells, driftwood, and the like are scattered across the beaches elegantly. Crabs, (freshwater) starfish, and the occasional tortoise or turtle might sometimes be spotted as well, adding to the already picturesque scenery.

Beside the lazy sands of the shores are the Forests, which make up most of Nakanotorishima's landscape.

The Forests of Nakanotorishima

The forests surround the inner parts of Nakanotorishima with dense, lush vegetation. Trees and plants of all sizes thrive in this idyllic paradise, with narrow rays of sun/moonlight shining through the small gaps between leaves illuminating the forest floor.

All sorts of animals and organisms, from squirrels to mushrooms to birds to deer to even larger animals, but there seems to be an unsettling absence of humanlike animals. Many ponds litter the forest as well, inhabited by amphibians such as frogs and toads, along with many more others.

Beyond the forests lies Lake Kurage, a large freshwater lake inhabited by all sorts of aquatic organisms.

Lake Kurage

Lake Kurage is the largest lake on Nakanotorishima, populated by all sorts of aquatic animals. Fish, eels, turtles, crayfish, and even fabled mermaids reside anywhere from the sparkling surface, to the bright upper layer, to even the dark depths of the lake.

From the surface, it is difficult to discern, but on particular nights where the moon is bright, a spire of sorts could be seen shining radiantly from the bottom of the lake. Perhaps it is some remnant of a past mermaid civilization, or perhaps one that is thriving at this very moment.

But all that is not as important as the main point of interest of the lake - jellyfish. Unmeasurable multitudes of all sorts of jellyfish live in the lake, each one reminiscent of a particular flower: peach blossoms, sakura, hydrangea, you name it.

Nakanotorishima Castle

Nakanotorishima Castle is the only non-natural construct on the island, situated on the very center of Lake Kurage, and connected to the forests through a breathtaking bridge constructed with an odd yet smooth, iridescent, and all around magnificent material.

The castle is constructed out of beautiful jewels and the finest clay and stones Nakanotorishima has to offer. However, as the princesses/demigoddesses rarely, if ever, have guests, the insides of the castle are mostly left to speculation.

It is, of course where Amehime and her siblings Irohahime and Mirahime reside.
