Lol the NK was interfered with. We owe some townie a thank you
Wryly · a year ago
If Thoth is telling the truth this still leaves us with someone who's a whole species and someone who's a specific life cycle of that species, which is weird.
Wryly · a year ago
Yeah I don't know what you guys mean about flavor
Wryly · a year ago
If Casey, Vader, or Rex are scum we just handed them a free pass here. Sigh.
Wryly · a year ago
Hadn't considered that. Once majority is reached, it's locked in?
Wryly · a year ago
Eh if no one's gonna unvote I guess we'll find out after Luna wakes up
Wryly · a year ago
I'm really trying to parse this out to make sure there's not some massive miscommunication/lost in translation thing here.
Your character is Facehugger, your role is Apportioner because Facehuggers impregnate people which kills them after a gestation delay, but the justification (as you said) is that Facehuggers work against the interests of Xenomorphs?
Wryly · a year ago
If adult Xenomorphs are scum, the flavor is that I'm stopping the night-kill.
But we don't know they're scum, and Kohai isn't claiming to be "adult" xenomorphs, just xenomorphs. And would Lunatic really give you a clue to the theme split like that?
Wryly · a year ago
In addition to how does it work against xenomorphs, how does it implicate Kohai?
Wryly · a year ago
Really didn't want this DP to close before I got some activity from Vader, Casey, and Rex
Wryly · a year ago
You don't have much time here
Wryly · a year ago
Should've full claimed dude.
Wryly · a year ago
Wait is that 5 votes?
Wryly · a year ago
You've VTL'd Kohai, who has fullclaimed, on the basis that your role PM incriminates him, but won't share your role PM. You're going to get lynched anyway if you don't claim.
Wryly · a year ago
My role card implies that adult Xenomorphs are scum.
I can't analyze this unless you full claim your role.
Yes. I am positive I am the Xenomorph
All xenomorphs? Eggs, facehuggers, hunters, queens?
Wryly · a year ago
Hm. Fair enough, I'll put a pin in it.
Wryly · a year ago
The role PM sounds like I am a Xenomorph but the justification for my ability is that it goes against the interests of Xenomorphs. I know it's weird.
So then how does the Facehugger go against the interests of Xenomorphs? Color me confused.
Wryly · a year ago
I hadn't considered that because I figured that's basically just the Xenomorph, but you're right, definitely possible.
Wryly · a year ago
So if Thoth is the Facehugger and Kohai is the Xenomorphs in their (I'm assuming) adult stage, and Mikal is also a nonhuman species, he could be the Egg, or a non-xenomorph species entirely, like these guys:
Wryly · a year ago
Ya this is a good point. Maybe add another category like other. Human, Alien, Other
If we're gonna go with this, Other
Wryly · a year ago
I'm cool to do the human/not human soft too, that isolates androids and creatures as well as xenomorphs, so it's not so limiting. Just keeping in mind that we have cyborgs and hybrids, so how is someone who falls in those categories supposed to answer?
Wryly · a year ago
Maybe it wouldn’t be a bad idea for everyone to soft claim Xenomorph or Not Xenomorph
I am not a xenomorph.
Wryly · a year ago
Upon re reading I think I may have misunderstood Thoth. The only issue I have is him claiming a Xenomorph but my character is the Xenomorph. I admit that I know nothing about the Alien franchise so I had thought the Xenomorph was an individual character and not necessarily an entire species.
They're an entire species, but there are individuals in it that stood apart, like the queen in Aliens, the sort of proto-xenomorph in Prometheus, the hybrid that called Ripley "mama." Etc. I didn't see Romulus or Covenant, possibly more there.
Seems kind of weird for Lunatic to give people individual xenomorphs from the species but give you the whole species, but not impossible, I guess.
Wryly · a year ago
My character justifies thoths in a way.
Meaning it is also a xenomorph, or what?
reading through the last game I’d rather get a claim early as she is still learning and the accidental new player aura confused a bunch of people. Also new players as scum tend to skip. So locking down early helps
Can't see myself hard claiming earlier than DP2, happy to softclaim once we settle on a soft.
Skip? Or slip you mean. Wouldn't that work in town's favor
Wryly · a year ago
Going off of this your claim, I think softclaiming whether our characters are or are not human seems like the way to do it. Mine is not human.
You'd need to define "human" clearly, as Alien: Earth introduces some things that blur the line. I guess Alien Resurrection did as well, with all that alienspliced Ripley and Ripleyspliced alien.
We hates Alien Resurrection, we hates it precious. Ripley wasn't even Ripley no more.

Unvote
Busy today will catch up tonight
Wryly · a year ago
Imagine causing so much misdirection last game that you're random number generating a vote to put us at ease
NICE TRY
VTL Thoth
Reason: Thoth
Wryly · a year ago
Probably a good idea to soft claim something if anyone has any ideas
original movies/spinoffs?
