Mafia: Dawn of Doomsday – Day 1: Everything is fine!

For months, a group of travelers have lived peacefully in a village that was once abandoned and dilapidated. Lacking good decision-making skills and no real need for a monarch, they have no ruler and have lived in harmony since they settled.

One morning, however, things got shaky. The city’s mysterious elder, priest and sorcerer, Bladdersensed disaster on the horizon. This seemed to be a false alarm until weeks later a crimson storm cloud seen in the east, straight ahead towards their village. Discolored lightning left vibrant bursts of deep scarlet light across the sky.

It became horribly clear to the eldest what was going on. A villager, Baconinquires with them in response to a clear expression of dismay.

“Wait, do you know what that is?”

“Well, I’ve seen legends, but I never thought they could be true…”

“Do we have a LEGEND problem?”

“It seems the feeling I felt all those weeks ago warned me of this; it was a feeling of foreboding.”

“Okay, cool. Get to the point, old man, what the hell is going to… I don’t know, eat us alive!?”

“It’s like the legend of Judgment Day.”

‘Oh no. I’ve heard of this before. So are we dead?’

“When that cloud reaches us, we are one with the damned.”

“WHAT??? Oh, I HAVE to get out of here.”

‘We can’t run away. If we run, our problem will not be solved. We have to fend it off, and we usually have about one to two weeks to do that.”

A bystander, Michhears the conversation and calls.

“How do you expect us to do that against what might happen against Satan?”

“In reality, the cloud itself doesn’t do any real damage. I’ve heard it’s just an excuse to create atmosphere and create knowledge.”

“Well…how does Doomsday start then?”

‘The cloud embodies the God of the day of judgment. He knows brute force won’t do much, so he takes a different route instead; he will try tear this community apart from within.”

“What does that mean?”

‘The God of the Day of Judgment can corrupt certain individuals, with the aim of wiping us out through them. Legend calls them the Doomsday lovers.”

“Oh, I understand. How can we undo this curse?’

‘The guillotine. No one has ever been able to tell how to ward off the God of the Day of Judgment, but murder is a miracle cure, right?

“…hm. I don’t trust it, but hey, I’m not the oldest.”

…

“Hey, speaking of this curse, how’s that going? That even maybe-“

As soon as the citizen speaks a word, an unholy sound comes from the storm cloud. It is deafeningly loud and resembles that of a roar.

Before any of the townspeople can even understand what is happening to the cloud, fog quickly descends from the storm and makes its way over the town in seconds. All that can be heard are the cries of lost souls. Nothing can be seen through the thick, blood-red haze.

After a few moments, bolts of lightning pierce the mist and loud thunder sounds. Before anyone can make sense of the events that have just occurred, everything goes silent, and soon after, it all goes black.

The city awakens. The cloud of doom can still be seen in the distance; the townspeople lie in the streets and begin to rise again. Nothing bad seems to have happened. Nevertheless, the eldest stands in the Town Square, preparing to make an announcement.

‘People of the city! It seems that a great beast has cursed our land! What happened in the fog was neither a dream nor a nightmare; the corruption has been laid among us! The God of Judgment Day has chosen a few of us townspeople to be his secret disciples, and through them he plans to devour us all! None of us are safe. In the coming days, we must piece together the clues and execute anyone suspected of being corrupt.”

“However, I suspect it will take some time for this curse to take full effect. Tomorrow, those claimed by the Day of Judgment will have completely succumbed. For now, continue with your duties. I’ll see you all again by then.

20 townspeople and 2 Doomsday Devotees remain.

There are no tasks today and people can only vote everyone insists they want to kill someone.
