The Dark One was bored, and this made him unhappy.

WOE, he said. IT IS SO DULL IN THIS BORE. EVEN DAMONDRED WON’T COME AND VISIT ME ANYMORE, APPARENTLY HE’S TOO BUSY NOW. WHATEVER. He glanced listlessly around his prison. Boiling lava and making meat rot was only entertaining for so long. Did those idiot Chosen even know what eternity meant? Obviously not, if they did they would try being a little more efficient, maybe. He sighed.

ARE YOU BORED OR SOMETHING? Said the Creator, pushing his way into the Bore. IT’S AWFULLY CRAMPED IN HERE, ISN’T IT?

The Dark One looked up, his sullen mood lifting immediately as his friend approached. IT’S DREADFUL, he said. THERE IS NOTHING TO DO IN HERE.

YEAH, I FEEL IT TOO, said the Creator, settling down into a more comfortable position. TARMON GAI’DON IS TAKING FOREVER. I WAS WONDERING, HOW ABOUT A LITTLE GAME ON THE SIDE TO PASS THE TIME?

The Dark One smiled. He never got tired of their little games – such a fun way to pass the Ages. CERTAINLY. LET’S GET THIS STARTED.

For some of you the white light fades, and for others the light returns from darkness. You open your eyes and look around – you’ve been mysteriously transported to an unfamiliar place filled with unfamiliar people. Despite being surprised, startled, and seriously confused, you know what you have to do. The giant voice was pretty clear, after all. You look around the windowless (and doorless) conference room at your fellow inmates. Some recognize each other, but others most certainly do not. You can’t even begin to fathom what kind of place these people could be from … You all settle down in the plush swivel chairs lining the long table at the center of the room, eyeing each other suspiciously. Most of you are for the Light, (though you call it different things), though some of you support a darker power. It’s time to begin finding out who is who.

Day 1 will end in 14 days, on October 2nd at 12:00pm EST.

New players might also find this flash guide to the game of Mafia pretty handy. I highly suggest looking over it before posting if you've never played before.
