I wasn't thinking of hosting any mafia games any time soon, but I just had what I think could be both a really fun and really stupid idea.

RNG Mafia, hosted by none other than me and ranya, the random number goddess. Each player sends me multiple characters (I'm thinking 5?) and after everyone's signed up, ranya works her magic and decides which of the roles will be in the game. There's limited balancing -- for instance, if there end up being no characters chosen that could fit the doctor description, there won't be a doctor. I mean, I could stretch things to some degree if I felt it would be beneficial, but I will only stretch so far. And of course, some of the abilities would also involve RNG. I was also thinking of randomizing elements of the flavor text, somehow.

I don't know if this sort of thing has been done here before, but I think it could be an amusing sort of clusterfuck that I'd consider giving a shot.

would anyone be interested?

I'm all for making things as insane as they could possibly be in mafia games, so I am indeed interested in that. Though for an added little bit of RNGesus, you could also have, say, random events at the start of each phase (or just each day or something, up to you). Not sure what those random events would entail, but it's an idea.

It's random enough as it is, so I'd like for the players to at least be in charge of actually initiating the randomness. So probably not for every phase, but yeah, I could definitely throw in a few of these.
 
You've seen nothing when it comes to the power of being IMMORTAL. But you'll get a taste of that soon!

Baccano! Mafia is coming
