Mafia- Can you Survive?

Welcome.

Our characters are one day exploring Hogwarts Castle. The last day of school is upon them. Some feel sad, some feel bittersweet, and many are frightened, for it is dangerous outside of the castle. For one reason or another, they all wish to stay at Hogwarts a little longer. Bad move. Now, something evil has trapped them within a tower of Hogwarts. Luckily, there seems to be enough food and  drink to last them until someone saves them. There is also enough space, as this is an entire tower, to spread out and unwind, away from the presence of one another. However, there's an odd shadow about the tower. Something doesn't feel right. The next morning, they awake to find a body: someone has been killed. Brutally. Next to the body, there is a note that reveals no handwriting.

Hello! Must I say, be careful what you wish for? I believe you will be at Hogwarts until your last breath! Isn't that nice! Each night, I will cause the killer- or is it killers? Maybe it' said conspiracy. How fun! Anyway, I will cause the killer or killers to rise. In the morning, you will find they have killed someone. Your task is to find and kill the murderer, though I will only allow you to do so by means of popular vote. I'm democratic, aren't I? However, each time you kill the wrong person, that' all I will allow you to kill for the day- and it' santo her night spent with me and the killer. Oh. Have I mentioned that one of you is the killer? Oh, but I'm not all evil. The game's so much more fun if it lasts longer, so one of you is the Guardian Angle of this doomed party. You'll only be able to heal at night, though, so you could be accused, or even killed, like any other person~! How fun! I hope you enjoy our a little game- until you draw your very last breath, that is.
-The Red Deamon

There is no escaping. There is only surviving. Will you be the one to do it?

Okay, now that the overly dramatic intro is over, welcome to MAFIA! This is my favorite forum game ever, so I'll be begging you all to join in. It's intense, terribly so, and even more dark, but it's so much fun! First, I'd like to remind everyone that this is entirely AU, so no actions in this thread affect the plot of the real forum. After all. That would have most of our characters dead, now wouldn't it? Second, do not hold grudges- or maybe do, but don't carry them outside of this game or out of character. The nature of this game involves publicly voting on someone to kill. That would be easy to begrudge a member for, but remember, it's all a game, and no one has any idea who's who, so they're only guessing by nothing at all. Don't hold it against them! Now that the basic two rules are done, I'll explain how to play. Be warned that this game is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive than most forum games. In fact, I know of no other forum game quite like it. It is played a bit like an actual RP, though the posts tend to be shorter, and there's a word maximum limit of 200 words, mainly because I can't ever manage posting much less than that and don't want to force others to.

You play like this: for the first round, I am the Red Demon. Unfortunately, Maddie herself cannot play, as that would be cheating. In future rounds, I will most likely coerce someone else into playing the Red Demon. Anyway, when each of you sign up py PM-img me with the names of each character you'd like to enter, I will send you a PM with either the word Unchosen, Mafia, or Angle written on it. The names are fairly self-explainitory. I encourage you to lie about which one you are as much as you want. However, give no hints if you can help it. You want to survive, after all. After this, each of you will post a short in-character post describing your version of the deadly wish, how you got to the tower, and your reaction upon realizing you are locked in. Each of you may only post once in this first round and in all subsequent rounds until I myself say otherwise, in order to keep clutter to a minimum. You may enter with more than one character, but be aware that, if you do, you are less likely to get a special role. Then again, if you want to win and you're the Mafia, you could always kill your other character...

Then, normal turns will begin. It will start when I post declaring that night has fallen. The Mafia must PM me with a name of the person they want to kill, which cannot be themselves. The Angle must PM me with the name of the person they want to save, which can be themselves. I will then post again and describe the scene of the murder. Each character will then do a short IC post describing their thoughts. At the bottom, they must present their vote. I will then declare the character to receive the most votes dead. Both dead characters are out and can no longer play, though they will be allowed to next round. There is an optional second chance to give an IC post before I declare night to have fallen again, and the cycle repeats. Please remember: even if you are the Mafia or Angle, your IC posts should sound like you were asleep with the rest of them, and the Red Demon's magic prevents you from warning anyone of what has happened. Cheating will make me mad,

As a shorter re-cap:
1. Night Falls
2. Mafia and Angle PM me their choices
3. The murder is revealed
4. All not yet dead react and vote
5. The person who has received the most votes dies. If it's the final Mafia, the game is over.
6. Characters may react
7. Night falls once more

I know it's a lot to take in, but it's not as hard as it sounds, I promise. Please, everyone, throw your characters to the wolves for me~!
