mafia championship A Knock from Outside the Cosmere

[Aeoryi she/her]

I nominate @Archer for his excellent Elim gameplay

EDIT: 

@Experience if he's willing as well

It's that time of year, huh?

Well, why stop voting for @Amanuensis now I know he'll probably refuse but that's no reason not to have the nomination.

@Ashbringer @Sart @JNV if any of you feel like it, have nominations as well. The more the merrier.

Anyone else I thought of off the top of my head has already received at least one nomination.

Thanks!! But I’m on the jury this season so I’m ineligible to play 

 

@Archer would also do good I think 

 

On the one hand, a member of the jury has already shown favoritism towards me, so I'm objectively the best choice 

On the other hand, I'm on haitus for the indefinite future as I work to acquire an expensive piece of paper 

So I must decline, but I appreciate the nod

[|TJ| he/him]

I'll be declining as well, I have exams in May and dissertation during June-August so I won't be able to dedicate time to play in a Championship game.

I can accept, but sending me would be madness

[StrikerEZ he/him]

I think I'll have to decline, unfortunately. I've got a lot going on in my life right now, and it's not really letting up. My goal is to be at a place in my life where I could do this next year. But it wouldn't be a good idea for me to accept this nomination right now.

[Stick. she/her]

Striker for Champ 2025 

[Experience he/him]

I have the time, though I feel like the other candidates would do better...

But I'm available.

Nonsense, it's not about how you do, it's about who we want to sacrifice to them as tribute

Oh!

I'm okay with being a sacrifice :P.

[Stick. she/her]

Should probably get a poll up by Monday so we have 2 weeks to vote? The rep needs to be finalised before the 20th 

[Araris Valerian he/him]

I've added a poll which will close on the 19th, so get your votes in!

[Araris Valerian he/him]

Okay, I'm closing the poll. @DrakeMarshall will be our rep for champs this year! It is customary for us to send our representative off with whatever tokens we've come across during our games.

I will lend you the slain heart of the Awakened House on the Hill, as a reminder that no evil is too great to overcome*

*If you have a Shardblade, which hopefully someone else will lend you

Edited April 19, 2024 by Araris Valerian

[The Unknown Medallion he/him]

I will lend Drake a shield made of the bodies of newbie elims, and my trusty Cloak of Inactivity. Use them wisely and sparingly for their cost is great.

[Stick. she/her]

Hype!!
 

This year’s setup lacks firefighters, so I’ll give you 3 Firefighters - they’ll put out fires for you and definitely do not work for the mafia. 
 

@DrakeMarshall @Experience both of you need to create an MU account and check in here: https://www.mafiauniverse.com/forums/threads/44933-Mafia-Championship-Season-11-General-Thread?p=7877323&viewfull=1#post7877323

 

Good luck!

[Kasimir he/him]

What did Champs do to deserve this inflicted on them

You're going as a SE rep, so I suppose I shall withhold the dreaded cheese wheel and shovel 

I bequeath upon you one Ellublade (sprenblade), to complete Araris's set, as because we both know you believe the better part of Valor is not discretion, but more valor and murder and fightpuppy madness

[Ookla de los Cuervos he/him]

I give you this dumb coin that says life and death on it.

[Experience he/him]

I give you an aluminum shovel. I hear it's good for digging graves.

A gravely important enterprise, digging graves.

I hope I will get to use it many times.

I can also use it to dig tunnels... Or dig out of them. The possibilities are endless!

So I just flipped and got 5 heads in a row.

I conclude that it is a lucky coin.

Thank you for such a valuable item.

Life before death.

Let the record show that whatever happens I lay the responsibility for this dubious decision at the feet of everyone else

I shall make sure to clean the blood from the Sword of Kas thoroughly before returning it to your custody.

Good luck!

Heck yeah if there are any arsonists their days are numbered

If there aren't, well, I'm sure I can still find a use for them somewhere.

I'll get on that.

I promise I will use these tools with something that might approximate wisdom if you squint very hard.

You have my thanks for this token

As does everyone else

*until such a time as I need to mount it on a battle standard and brandish it as a grisly trophy as a reminder to a great evil that their days are numbered

[Aeoryi she/her]

I bestow upon you a single breath, able to make you last an extra week 

(Looks like I'm a bit late, though)

Death and Life, technically.

It is never too late

A week is quite a lot of time when it's life and death

Therefore I shall take this breath of life and use it to bolster my natural tendency to survive, which normally only applies when most of my peers would wish it didn't
