If a method of death is not chosen, I will create one myself. A night message is optional, as is a daytime message. The Emperor cannot be a Traitor. If the Emperor uses she/her, I will refer to them as Empress Regnant instead. <br /><br />A person with a neutral role cannot have any other role. <br /><br />Multiple people can have the same role. Some may have two roles, one that has a game-changing action, another that is less so, like Pastry Enthusiast. <br /><br />The game will begin at night. The Traitors have 24 hours from the time of this message to send me their first kill. stripes is off limits for the first kill tonight, but is fair game afterwards. No one is allowed to talk during the night or via PMs, other than the Traitors. If I have not given you your role via PMs, please let me know right now. If you have a role that has an action to perform at night, I am not going to remind you, so make sure to pay attention and PM me at the correct time.<br /><br />Good luck!
