Spoiler: Premise Hey guys, Black Fable is back, only this time it’s epic and on Cox Studios. You all kept asking for a cops and robbers game and now you’re going to get it—with a few added twists! Black Fable 4 will place you within a futuristic crime family. It’s good to be bad, isn’t it? This game is a collaboration between me and Doctor Nanjo. We worked together on the gameplay and roles; however, I will be responsible for the story and most of the actual game. Still, be sure to thank him for helping me get this game off the ground! Spoiler: Fast Facts Obviously, Black Fable 4 is an RP. You’ll be creating original characters and working with your best friends and mortal enemies to figure out who keeps killing your OCs. You’ll fit your character in the story below: Spoiler: Story Should be pretty obvious what happens from here—Leon’s birthday goes to heck in a handcart, people start dying, and probably the cops are behind it. Can the mobsters solve the murders and stop the cops from killing them? I don’t know, you’ll have to play to find out. The gameplay will be most similar to the critically-acclaimed Black Fable 2, with some changes. Learn more below: Spoiler: Gameplay Due to having multiple arcs, this game will be more character-focused than other BF games. Additionally, your characters will never be dead for good, so consistent activity is important. I’m hoping the game will last for 5 weeks but we’ll see lol. If you’d like to sign up, start by reading and agreeing to the BF-MAMA below. Spoiler: BF-MAMA Spoiler: FAQs Now sign up below! This game can accommodate up to 18 players, so I don’t expect we’ll have to cut anybody. Since all of your characters come from the same crime family and are trusted associates of Leon, you will likely know each other. Maybe you’re related to Leon, like a son or wife. Maybe you’re a trusted enforcer or getaway driver. Maybe you just walk Leon’s dog sometimes and you’re not sure why you’re here. If you have ideas, start putting them in the thread and work with other players to make an integrated, interesting cast! Until then, keep the change, you filthy animal. |

Before I agree to the MAMA and give up my chance to expose you for your crimes, I got a question. Is there any countermeasure in place to prevent the same set of Mobsters from dying during the first Carnage Phase each arc? Oh also, do the Cops win the moment they outnumber the Mobsters? Or does each arc last a set number of "days" or whatever? |

Wowza me likey MAMA Is the 7 guess baseline for if we're at the max player count? If there's only like 14 players then 7 guesses might be pretty strong. "I’ve never even played Cyberpunk 2077" - the story excerpt reads like it was ripped straight from the game so I could have sworn you'd actually played it. Props. Anyway, this looks pretty cool! Everything seem- "Feel free to ask KamiPanda" HEY |

Yeah, like in BF2 players can only die in the first phase once for the whole game. And yeah, Cops don’t win until the end of the phase. Overall, the game will run pretty similar to BF2.

Yeah that will scale based on players, I just forgot lol. The point is there will be an excess of guesses. Anything that needs to scale will scale based on players, such as kills-per-round, rounds-per-arc, etc. For what it’s worth, this game is more-so based on a cyberpunk mafia game my roommate did than on cyberpunk itself, which is probably why it sounds on point. Though honestly not sure he’s even played 2077… |

The game's lore goes deep Will the survey be posted later? I feel like I'd rather see what role/power I have before planning anything about my character. |

BF2 didn’t even have a survey so I wasn’t planning to add one. But we could delay character creation till after roles go out, I wanted it to be more like the BF2 process though |

Have you not yet learned that the least trustworthy person when it comes to my games is me I meant for that to say that you can express opinions about which role you want to be privately, if you care one way or the other. Otherwise I’ll assign roles randomly. At that time, I’ll set up a QT with your role details. You can also put private-facing info about your character there |

I am willing to comply to mama regulation! My character spoiler: His name will be Uncle Pizza. He is an amazing chef who lives on the floor above the hideout. Or at least he used to until his untimely death in 2009. Is he a cool ghost or a scary vampire? His cooking sure has a lot of garlic. This sounds like a scooby do character but I have like a serious angle to it as well. |

Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
Okay my idea is to be a personal trainer and dietician to Leon and the rest of the mafia, specifically to help with cyber hardware rejection issues. Also whips ass if needed Also he is green because of an algae colony living in his skin so he can photosynthesize, as well as other insane cool bio augmentations. His name is Broccoli Rob. |

Hello! I am a friend of Kachu and I heard about this and thought it sounded very cool! I've got experience doing forum games and roleplay like this before, so I understand the level of commitment and I'd love to take part if y'all would have me! p.s. i love my MAMA |

I am in (yay for rosa) I agree to the MAMA my character idea is Leon's wife who's like the same age as him but also this cool badass looking grandma who's surprisingly stern and scary and still in good condition due to technological advancements let me know if anyone wants to collab for this one (it'll take a day or two for me to decide on name, ref image, etc though) |
Author: | KamiPanda [ Wed Jun 15, 2022 3:31 pm ] |
Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
So far that's: Nanjo: Pizza Boy Iago: Photosynthesising doctor, specialising in preventing implant-rejection. SC: Leon's badass old lady mobster wife. |

Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
At last, the cast has been finalized. Here’s the list below. I went ahead and added the characters of people who’ve already posted. Spoiler: Cast List Your role PMs are available on Cox Studios. If you have an account, you can find it there. If not, I’ll DM you a pic of the role PM, but please make an account as soon as possible! Now you can begin creating your characters! A reminder to new players: design your characters so they don’t give away your role or affiliation. Also a reminder that Mobsters are the town faction, not the mafia faction. I’m hoping to start on Monday if everyone is ready. One final note: there’s a secret role that will be assigned before the game begins. Keep an eye out for that! |

Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
Alright, so since we're allowed to start creating our characters, I'll go first. My character idea is that he's Leon's youngest son. If he is the only son, then it would mean that he's the sole heir to the family name. If he is the sole heir, then he would have been assigned a bodyguard while he was growing up. If he isn't the sole heir, then that's okay, he still has a bodyguard. *shrugs* He's fond of wearing a pair of sunglasses for a reason that only his family and bodyguard would know. At the start of the game's events, he's engaged to his fiancée. If any of these character relationships pings your interest and you want to be one of those characters my character knows, let me know so we can talk out the details. DMs are most preferred, but in this thread is fine as well. |

Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
Oooh, character relations already, awesome. I know other people already have some ideas, so I'll wait to see them before deciding what I'll do. As I've indicated before, I'm happy to be glue and make a character that fills some useful role in making the cast. Bodyguard or wife are definitely ones to consider so far. Edit: If Hanzo's character ends up being Leon's only child, I imagine it would be reasonable that Leon had other children too but they've all been killed over the years. Mobster stuff, political stuff, cyberpunk stuff; it can be dangerous for a child of such an influential family. |

Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
Hi! My character's name is Leslie I think and I have decided on practically nothing else new. I think me and Hanzo will inevitably be related through what he described but we'll talk it out I think. Beyond that if anyone has any cool ideas for relationships with my character feel free to DM me or mention me in this thread, cheers! |

As I said in discord, I already decided on my character beforehand regardless of my role/affiliation, but if anybody wants to have some sort of relationship to/connection with Countess Elizabeth Arette Pistachio Charlemagne Natalia Marie Clementine Montague du Bois Spoiler: |

Author: | Bad Player [ Thu Jun 16, 2022 1:35 pm ] |
Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
Raphael is a distant, distant cousin. From a lesser part of the family. Countess Elizabeth Arette Pistachio Charlemagne Natalia Marie Clementine Montague du Bois is actually only the first part of Countess Elizabeth Arette Pistachio Charlemagne Natalia Marie Clementine Montague du Bois’ full name, but in Countess Elizabeth Arette Pistachio Charlemagne Natalia Marie Clementine Montague du Bois’ expansive grace Countess Elizabeth Arette Pistachio Charlemagne Natalia Marie Clementine Montague du Bois only uses Countess Elizabeth Arette Pistachio Charlemagne Natalia Marie Clementine Montague du Bois since it is so much shorter and simpler. |

hallo everyone okay alright my character's name is Mona Lunetti. The main conceit here is they are oldest associates and a high ranking executive in Diantech that's long since used the corporation's technology to transcend into a fully mechanical and electronic body to achieve a sort of immortality. Almost. Though they're never dying of old age or disease they still have a fleshy brain somewhere in that fancy body and thus still have a fatal weakness to being shot in the brain with a gun. This can cause a transhumanist untold amounts of frustration if, hypothetically, they happen to be acquainted with some kind of pizza ghost and slash or vampire. Also they're not married into the family or anything by all means they're just Leon's old friend but they have changed their last name and been with him for so long most characters would probably be used to them as just part of the family at this point. okay that's about it i have some things to reach out to SC already but I'm open to more or less anything if anyone thinks up a reason to relate to leon's metal friend Also, they look like this. Their body can run 960000000001 concurrent instances of Doom before their mental processes start slowing down. Spoiler: |

Post subject: | Re: Black Fable 4 Sign-Ups |
No idea why I didn't realize that stuff with Red sooner. Very exciting to see, reminds me of Umineko a little bit like BF2. This is going to be hype as hell. I'm still assembling details for my character so nothing is set in stone, but it's leaning towards being the daughter of one of Leon's probably dead kids. Though she could have parents if it's deemed necessary. |

Name: Izza “Deep Rat” Snitch Age: ?? (Over 80) Appearance: A tiny figure of just over 4 foot. Medium, silver hair tied up in a ponytail. Wears a crispy, white button up shirt with a popped collar and a silver chain around her neck. Black gloves cover her small hands. Rats of all stripes follow her around. Occupation: Been in the business for over half a century and an expert in all sorts of scamming, conning, and cooking of books. She has been in countless gunfights, in countless high speed chases, and tortured on multiple occasions. She says that her rats have aided her in all her pincer attacks. Backstory: on one of her first missions she was almost burned alive in a grease fire at an abandoned pizza parlor. Thankfully, using some nano machines found nearby in the trash (and maybe some help from someone else) she was able to get a nano machine body. The only problem is that it seems that these nano machines have memories of their previous owner “Uncle Pizza” who basically possesses her on occasion and she turns into a 6 foot, 400 pound pizza chef. |

Name: Mercy Decado Age: 27 Appearance: An elegant woman with butterflies flying around her. She uses a chip implanted into her brain to control these butterflies, which are in fact miniature drones. Occupation: As a Decado (the same family Lancer is from) she was raised to be an assassin. However after falling in love with Kolton she left that life behind. She's rich enough not to need to work anyway. Background: Mercy might sound an unusual name for an assassin, but the Decados take pride in bringing merciful ends to those marked for death. It's a point of professional pride for them, setting them aside from common thugs. As such, her parents felt it the perfect name for their little girl. Like the others in her family, she was raised as a hitman from a young age, eventually specialising in controlling butterfly drones armed with poisoned needles. She carried out her assignments unflinchingly, and when her next task was to off the young heir of the Lunetti family it was business as usual. That is, until she got close enough to see him in person, at which point she fell in love at first sight. Naturally she immediately went to track down and kill the one who'd hired her, nullifying the contract and ensuring nothing would get in the way of her love. She and Kolton ended up dating, and then 4 years after, he proposed to her, leading up to the present day. Personality: Cold and snarky, even downright acerbic. Unless she's addressing Kolton, in which case her personality does a 180 and she becomes a sappy idiot. |
