Right. We've play tested this a few times already so I figured I'd write up a guide for this for those who are confused. A special thanks to Kamuna, SailorDave and Tanasinn for helping with functions, bug fixing and play testing respectively. Oh and Zantus for giving me a dead student icon.
Normal students will be aware of the fact that there have been a string of student killings around the city recently and the police are stating that it's likely one culprit. Whoever is stuck in here with you tonight is portrayed as a ruthless killer by the media so many may not choose to be sympathetic.
For All Roles: The Heat Haze is a phenomenon that happens to certain humans when they experience death. They settle on the boundaries between life and death and are possessed by a snake before returning to the world of the living. In most cases, this simply results in a new power. Unknown to its host The Snake of Clearing Eyes plays by different rules. If you manage to stop the killer early, the round will continue.
Roles:
The Snake (Of Clearing Eyes): Your time is quickly nearing its end. You've been randomly killing students for months now, in a hope that one would claw back from the verge of death and experience the heat haze. A few have and formed together as a group called the 'Mekakushi Dan', but none had the ability you desired. Only one power remains to be given and with it comes immortality. By using your power of 'Clearing Eyes' you can take the forms of the living and the abilities of the dead. Force a student to experience the heat haze to obtain this power through death and then kill them again by 5 AM to steal it with 'Clearing Eyes' or your story is over. To make matters worse, two members of the 'Mekakushi Dan' that you murdered in the past are here tonight and seem to be catching on.
A good snake will be sneaky, clever and daring. They hold the same combat prowess as any other student, so they have to rely on deception to give them an edge. By using their abilities Copy Form and Shift Form they can take actions as other students around the building turning the students against one another. The larger the round, the faster you have to work. While the other two roles cannot be your target, you may want to take the time to kill them regardless. By taking their form once they have died you will gain access to all of their verbs allowing you to use the camera network or invisibility to further your crimes and deception.
One of the remaining thirteen(max) students is your target and you won't know if you got the right one until after they die. Your health has been slowly getting worse since you obtained this ability in your own heat haze. Can you find the right one before 5 AM?
(The Snake of) Concealing Eyes: Ever since a near death experience, you experienced the heat haze and obtained the Snake of Concealing Eyes. Your powers are not known to normal students so you may want to be careful using them freely. You and your friend are part of a larger group of students called the 'Mekakushi Dan' that has been investigating the actions of an unknown snake. Every member has experienced death in one way or another and managed to claw their way back to life bringing a power back with them from the other side. You've come to understand that this snake has been targetting students in the school and is likely trapped in the building with you. Furthermore, they were responsible for your near death experience in the first place. It's in your best interests to work with your partner to stop them.
Ever since your near death experience, the Snake of Concealing Eyes has made it so people have a very hard time noticing you exist. As you got older you were able to have a more tangible grasp on this power. By using your ability of Invisibility you can eavesdrop on conversations, get past large crowds and hopefully find out more about the person responsible for the recent string of student killings. I wouldn't just blindly trust your partner though... in a certain variant things are not always as they seem.
(The Snake of) Opening Eyes: Ever since a near death experience, you experienced the heat haze and obtained the Snake of Opening Eyes. Your powers are not known to normal students so you may want to be careful using them freely. You and your friend are part of a larger group of students called the 'Mekakushi Dan' that has been investigating the actions of an unknown snake. Every member has experienced death in one way or another and managed to claw their way back to life bringing a power back with them from the other side. You've come to understand that this snake has been targetting students in the school and is likely trapped in the building with you. Furthermore, they were responsible for your near death experience in the first place.
Ever since your near death experience, the Snake of Opening Eyes has allowed you to manipulate technology. Whether it's to Access the Computer remotely, using Data Transfer to go through the camera network using the security room as your hub (With Wire Transfer) or listening to camera audio (TO BE IMPLEMENTED) you have a wide arsenal of tools to communicate to the school just who you think this killer is. I wouldn't just blindly trust your partner though... in a certain variant things are not always as they seem.
Hidden Role:
A seemingly normal student. Until they die that is. Upon experiencing the heat haze and coming back to life they will have new powers and the killer will surely come after them for a second time now that their target has been found...
PS: I am aware that I made multiple changes on the source material. I did this to make the mode more enjoyable on a whole.
