Production Note: In the application process, players were invited to share a short bio of themselves to be shared with the spectators. These are those bios, which have been lightly edited/redacted to remove identifying information as appropriate.
Hades--I left my one prior game disappointed in myself for both my placement and my attitude and am looking for redemption here. Whether I will get it, well, let's find out together.
Hermes--My name is [REDACTED]. I'm a longtime member of [REDACTED] who has seen every episode of Survivor. I have recently (in the last 6 years) gotten into Big Brother. I love playing these types of games. I am very social and the strength of my game is being able to connect with others. The nice thing about this being my first true game on Mafiascum will be being able to openly talk about my life without others knowing who I am!
Kitsune--Having spent a lot of time on secret alts, I think that my normal personality—without any sort of affect—is somewhat uninteresting. I have, however, spent a lot of time ""putting on"" personalities, affects, and in general playing more animated characters on alts. The phrasing of ""playing a character"" makes it sound as though I'm pretending to be someone I'm not, but really when I do this I tend to think of it as just deliberately leaning more into some aspect of my personality that already actually exists.
I always play games to win. I think that a lot of people who say this or see people say it think that it means you should be some jerk or something like that, but I think that being pleasant and playing to win are almost never mutually exclusive, so that's what I try to do. In fact, I think that in most games, being pleasant probably helps you win more than being rude.
Loki--um... sussy baka? (flushed emoji) my name is [REDACTED] and i am here to either spectate or play, i do not mind which. i have currently quit my job (pog) and am here to play full-time, which may or may not be a good decision, it depends on how things play out fully. anyway, you can expect me to be a bumbling dumbass villain in basically almost any season i play. the important distinction between me and other villains is that im purely in it for the fun and i dont care whether or not i win or lose in the slightest. making it far is my dream and every time i do its like being high on mary juana. thank you for listening to my ted talk im not sure if this is over 200 words but i aint riskin it
Chaos--It is hard to describe myself as the only thing predictable about me is my unpredictability and my tendency to do the opposite of what I normally do. For example, I am usually cautious. However I also tend to make quick decisions and roll with it because I know otherwise I may be overcautious. I also like to play counter intuitively as it is both interesting for me and hard to plan against. This is why I am deemed chaotic
Persephone--Hello! I am a [REDACTED] to be specific! I am a relatively new player and have enjoyed making friends through this site!
Athena--I am a [REDACTED] year old [REDACTED] major graduate whose hobbies include reading, creative writing, GMing for table-top roleplaying games, various strategy games like chess and Age of Empires II, and hiking. I work part time as a writing tutor and part time as a library assistant. I've played mafia on mafiascum.net off and on for several years, but I've never ventured into the LSG side of the website. I'm hoping to both learn the game and also (hopefully) perform well in my first game. Even if I go out early though, I'm looking forward to the chance to interact with people that I might not normally get a chance to, as well as the chance to interact with people I would otherwise interact with in a very different setting.
Jesus--Hi, I'm [REDACTED] I was born roughly [REDACTED] years ago. I tried to come save people from their [REDACTED] and idk if you've heard or not but that really didn't work out so well. I'd almost given up on humanity, but then I heard about this cool thing called the internet? I don't really understand it, but basically I gathered that I could save [REDACTED] without actually having to come to [REDACTED]? which sounds pretty awesome, cause i get to stay in [REDACTED] floating on clouds and help people without all the [REDACTED] and thorns? it's basically like working from home
Artemis--Hey, I'm [REDACTED]. This is my first survivor game and my main goals are to learn the game and just have fun with it. I really enjoy the social aspects of these games so I think that's where my stronger points will be, maybe with a mix of some subtle strategic moves and who knows, maybe I'll be good at the challenges too. [REDACTED] is my main LSG experience where I got 7th place, which I don't think is too bad for my first game with [REDACTED]. My only other game of experience was [REDACTED] where I got 3rd.
Bilious--I like to arbitrarily complain about stuff. Some it may be game related. I also assume I will massively overestimate my position, as the game itself will suffer if I actually accept that I am in a poor position, regardless of how I am actually playing.
Cerberus--i was born in a litter of wolf pups to two wolves. i grew up learning how to hunt for prey with my brothers and sisters. i was always a little bigger than them, more cunning and more quick. i pushed my parents off a cliff and then it fell to me to be the alpha of the group. now i run a wolf pack and we hunt for food together.
Papatuanuku--I’m super nerdy, I love making friends, and I’m trying to grow a backbone so I can also use my Survivor friends as stepping stools to get what I want. Other than that? I like food, books, movies, squishing cute animals, and sitting in sunrooms surrounded by plants.
Cthulhu--"hey, i’m [REDACTED]. I came to MS last year (mostly just to play mafia). I played in my first and only ORG so far [REDACTED], which was also a game of survivor. I generally don’t tend to care about winning/losing or socialising that much. challenges are generally my favorite part of survivor. my aim for now will be to try to socialise more and generally try not to get voted out first
Viy--I had a great time in my previous game and I hope I can follow it up with another solid outing. Last time I tried to play UTR but made some critical errors, so I want to learn from that. My NBA team is out of the playoffs so I want to try to bring something home for them.
The Radiance--yo sup, it is i [insert name here] not sure how much we can share, but i'm here to mostly wreck havoc and have fun ! Or to die immediatly while trying to do so, who knows, anyways, i'm here, imma do stuff, and there's nothing y'all can do to stop me
Artio--I’m a [REDACTED]-y/o female [REDACTED] living on the [REDACTED] coast; extremely outgoing and generally friendly with everyone
Kronos--Someone that actually as some free time on his hands for one. With College completed and no active [REDACTED] productions for a few months while he plans his wedding. Someone is planning on making great use of all the free time that he has.
Eloritu--Once described as "aw fuck not him again," this player is, without a doubt, one of the Survivor players on mafiascum dot net.
Jael--Hi there, I'm [insert player character here]. And while I want to win, I want to make the experience of playing or watching this game as fun and nice as possible. I also want to plot through these potential twists and use them to my hearts content. I've run bastard games, I've not played them and it's time to experience the reason I love running them from the player side. I try to be good about confessionals, but I'm so much better at conversations than I am question lists, so come hit me with chatter and you can find out everything you want to know and more~
Odysseus--I am a semi-experienced player on the MS Survivor scene, very familiar with games of social deduction. I tend to do quite well, but frequently trip over my own overly-complex narratives.
Phobos and Deimos--I like winning challenges.
I like Japanese Music. I uh... like memes! I like dogs! I like basically everything except getting conspired and voted against in Survivor!
SEPARATE
Tactical minded god seeks undergods to perform as minions, lackeys and pavilion bearers to carry me to my eventual victory. Desired qualities include lack of foresight, inability to notice links on forums and the ability to win flash games. Must be especially good at annoying people with psychology questions and be very bad at chess.
Fili and Kili--I'm relatively lighthearted, but I'm doing my best to improve at Survivor. I'm fresh off what I believe to be my best game ever, and I'm looking keep the trajectory upwards. I want to crush the competition.
SEPARATE
I enjoy long walks at the beach and the US version of the Office (am I doing this right?)
Also big moves. I'm a very out-there player who is willing to do whatever it takes to reach the end, with the reasoning that if I can reach the end, players will reward the moves that got me there even if they were blindsided or suchlike. If I have to be ruthless, I will.
Maat and Hathor--I am a player that is ready to bring drama to the game. I'm not going to sit around and let things happen to me. In fact, I'll be the agent of change in this game!!
SEPARATE
Hi my name is [redacted] No one ever guesses my id because I'm the sneekiest! If you have a guess, you WRONG. I never make merge, always die early, and am a horrible survivor player but WHO CARES. I have my favorite person with me here and that means we're going to WIN THIS SH- <.< no cussing the game hasn't even started yet. BUT ANYWAYS. If you're a spec, you will love me or else. If ur a mod, SAME THING. Um what else is there to say ... hmm oh! I suck at challenges! Love to make big moves! Am an expert at getting stabbed! And you should root for me because me and my fren are gonna blow this game away with our shiny moves. Oh wait I forgot the reviewer! That's cephy right? Well .... he can like whoever he wants since I .... bonked him on the head with a couple frying pans one time. Yeah uh. >.< Sorry cephyyyyyy (Mod Note: Against my better judgment, I chose not to redact the whole of this quote, since I think both you and half the game already know who this is.
