Name
I haven't really made up a name that could express the concept of the map concisely. Vampires whilst true is not exactly creative in any way, shape or form. So I guess whoever decides to create this map could use whatever they like.
Type
The genre of this map may be a little hard to pin down. I guess you could offer up your own suggestions, but I'd put it somewhere in between Mini-game and Survival.
Objectives
The objectives of this map are rather simple, depending on which team you are on. If you have ever played Werewolf Transylvania then it follows the same sort of principle as that.
Set in a city-scape, the small village/town/city of {Insert name here} has recently been faced with a rather large problem. A townsman whom was thought to be dead, with two large puncture marks in his neck, rose up again much to everyone's temporary joy. And then confusion. And then fear. And then horror. For he arose with an unquenchable bloodlust. After murdering three civilians before everyone's confused eyes, the horror changed to anger as they attacked and burned both him and the bodies of those that he murdered.
But here is their problem, for it is a problem that is far from over. Who was the one who originally murdered him? For obviously he is still in the village/town/city of {Insert name here}, and if he is there is a problem.
Villagers
He's here. Or she's here? It could be a girl! No one thought of that. You'll have to look at all the women as well at the next meeting. No not like that! Pervert. Everyone is a suspect, anyone could be next. But how do you tell? Do they sweat profusely? Are their pupils more dilated? Who truly knows? Before long, we could all be dead. And then... not dead I suppose.
The goal of the villagers is to find out who the vampire is before the entire town is converted, and kill him, along with all of his underlings/convertees.
Vampire/s
Well that's that isn't it. They don't know yet, but you are part of the refined elite group known as "Partakers in Life after Death in Life", or the Undead for short. Not only are you part of this group, but those dimwit villagers are so simpleminded and racist that they want to kill you for it! Just for being different! Well you will show them!
The Task of the Vampire is to convert all of the villagers, both NPC's and other players. Simple as that.
Features
It really depends on which direction the creator wishes to go with this.
If you've ever played either of the maps "Mafia" or "Werewolf", then the Night/Day system of both where the baddies do all the work at night and the goodies do all the work at day was the main idea here.
Also, having a sort of meeting as some point in the day with all players much like in the game Mafia to decide whodunit would be an excellent addition in my opinion. However I would prefer the game to be more hero/villager based than the werewolf style "Base-based", but I guess that is up to the prerogative of the creator.
The vampire would at night time receive stat bonuses or whatever else they need to be advantaged over a bunch of 9-11 other players, as well as an ability that allows them to convert unsuspecting villagers who would then appear dead the following day. The day after that if no one realises that they have been killed they are raised as minion of whoever rose them. Unless a player is turned in which case there would be special rules for that, either they are turned into a vampire much like the original who is able to create its own minions.
At day, the vampire acts much like a normal villager. They can attend meetings to discuss who it was and attempt to remain unnoticed. Of course during the day the vampire would not be AS powerful.
Reason I'm not Making it
Why Amarnra you most intelligent, beautiful and creative being, how is it that you are not making this map yourself?
Well non-existent admirer, the answer is rather simple. I am currently working on another map and I've got school as well to contend with. So instead of half-doing two maps and failing classes, along with disappointing all who might be expecting the maps in question, I leave this idea in the capable hands of whoever might wish to use it.
By the way, ideas are ideas. I don't expect anyone to site me as the creator of this idea because a) It might exist in part of whole already? (If someone to clarify that, that would be great) and b) I don't think anyone should own a bunch of thoughts.
Go wild!
