Here is Part 1 of the Eternals/Guardians messages in the order I sent them out. CC (Eternals) - CaptainCrunch, CBL (Guardians) - Crazy Bacon Legs, BigC (Guardians) - BigC

CC To GP_Matt:

Hello My Friend;

Allow me to introduce myself, I am the leader of The Eternals, a small group of powerful people who are dedicated to the idea that power not used is power wasted, and that order is preferable over chaos. However sometimes chaos is needed to establish order.

We were the ones who got Adam and Eve kicked out of the Garden of Eden, we knew that if man stayed in the garden that we would merely be slaves, never realizing our potential and drive for power. We have bought down countless societies and replaced them with societies where power lies in the hands of the deserving, driven by those who are willing to put the betterment of society over the freedom of the undeserving.

This is why we are reaching out to you. We have noticed that your society is on the tipping point, a natural balance between Chaos and order is being lost and it’s time for you to seize that opportunity.

Aren’t you tired of not having the power to make the changes that you wish? Aren’t you tired of the weak and chaotic dictating terms and making the rules when it should be wise and strong individuals like yourself shaping society?
Don’t you wish that the destruction of evil was a mere matter of deciding that it was time?

We offer you a potential step towards a position of influence. Is it corrupt or evil of you to do this? Evil is merely a concept defined by the weak to blame the powerful, Corruption, merely a term created by the envious. We beg you to take this opportunity to reform society.

We are offering you an opportunity here to do what’s right, we attach no strings, the power that we give you is a gift. In short we are offering you membership in a group that has existed in one form or another since before the calendar.

If you reply to this offer within 12 hours of receiving this message and indicate that you are committing yourself forever to our brotherhood, you will receive the gift of Lynchproof. This power is a one-time gift that will prevent you from being lynched and guarantee your survival.

I give you a friendly warning, a rejection of us or an attempt to expose us will lead to someone else receiving our interest and you becoming a powerless individual swept away and forgotten like a grain of sand on a beach abandoned.

We are always watching and waiting


Sincerely a friend
ad eos qui suscipiunt

CBL To starseed:

starseed,

There is truth beyond what you know. There is a way to find this truth.

We know the truth: we know all about you, what you represent, and your role in this paltry game.

You live in a world of colour; a world of light and whimsy. You see only pale reflections of reality. You know nothing of the darkness that seethes below you, threatening this world and all who live within it. Only by learning of this darkness can you finally see the true light. We seek to cast this light.

Knowledge brings power, and we can grant you a part of this. True power only comes by committing to our cause.

You have been contacted because of who you are. You will be asked to become one with us. You think you know the real threat to this world and how to win. But we know the truth. We know the real threat. We stand against it. We are all there is between chaos and order.

You have been chosen. But you would do well to remain silent to others for now. Do not share this new knowledge with those aligned with you. Do not discuss this message with them.

Choose wisely and we may grant you great power. We offer you the gift of knowledge: join us and you may know the alignment of one person. You may use this ability once on the night of your choosing.

Wait. Watch. Listen. The truth is coming, and its light shines through. You will know those who are aligned with us soon enough.

We are the Guardians. Will you join us?

CC to East Coast Flame:

Hello My Friend;

Allow me to introduce myself, I am the leader of The Eternals, a small group of extremely powerful people who are dedicated to the idea that power not used is power wasted, and that order is preferable over chaos. However sometimes chaos is needed to establish order.

We have been around since man first left the trees and started walking upright. We were there when the first primitive man picked up a rock and took ownership and custody over the weak.

We handed the knife to Brutus the Younger when the Roman Senate decided to depose Caesar and seize power for themselves.

We are reaching out to you because we recognize the greatness within you. We see your potential in becoming a great and wise leader who can rule your society and protect it from the weak and the dark.
We are giving you the opportunity to rebuild society in the way that you believe it should be and to destroy any threats to your rule.

The weak should not dictate terms to the powerful, the weak need to accept that their reality is based around serving the strong.

We offer you a potential step towards a position of influence. Being influential is not evil, using and ruling over the weak is the ultimate expression of democracy.

The weak may blame the strong, the weak may foster chaos, but ultimately the strong will destroy the chaos and the weak will submit and help you build a strong, secure and strong society.

Your society is rotting from the inside, under attack by the agents of weakness and chaos and we’re here to help you.

We are offering you an opportunity to restore justice and fairness and a dedication to the natural order of things, we attach no strings, and the power that we give you is a gift. In short we are offering you membership in a group that has existed in one form or another since before the first clock struck midnight.

You will learn the enlightened rules of our order over time if you join us. Rule number 5 is make your enemies suffer in death as an example for others to learn.

To this end, if you reply to this offer and indicate that you are committing yourself forever to our brotherhood, you will receive the gift of Poisoner. This power is a one-time use gift that will allow you to watch one player of your choosing die on the second night after you poison them. So if you poison a player tonight he will die tomorrow night.

(A Poisoner is a killing role, targeting a player one night, poisoning them. The poisoned player then dies the following night without the Poisoner having to target them again. In this way the Poisoner can more effectively dodge Watchers and Trackers, by claiming "I didn't target that player the night they died!")

I give you a friendly warning, a rejection of us or an attempt to expose us will lead to someone else receiving our interest and you being cast to the wretches and torn apart.

We are always watching and waiting

CBL to GirlySports:

GirlySports,

You are on the right track. You are to be commended. Do not allow yourself to be drawn in by lies and misdirection.

There is truth beyond what you know. There is a way to find this truth.

We know the truth: we know all about you, what you represent, and your role in this game.

But you do not know the truth. You have only the beginnings of hints at this time. But understand that you live in a world of colour; a world of light and whimsy. You see only pale reflections of reality. You know little of the darkness that seeths below you, threatening this world and all who live within it. Only by learning of this darkness can you finally see the true light. We seek to cast this light.

Knowledge brings power, and we can grant you a part of this.

You have been introduced to the ones called The Eternals. They represent the darkness, and all its danger. They threaten this world, and your role is important in this battle. We invite you to join us.

In exchange for your services, we offer you the power of protection: On one night, you may protect yourself from death. If you are targeted the night you use that power, you will live. This power can be used only once; choose wisely on when to use it.

Do not speak of this to others, except to confirm that you are a member of the Guardians, and that you work to further the light. Do not reveal the power you have been granted.

Wait. Watch. Listen. The truth is coming, and its light shines through.

We are the Guardians. Will you join us?

CBL to mrkajz44:

mrkajz44,

You are on the right track. You are to be commended. Do not allow yourself to be drawn in by lies and misdirection.

Understand that there is truth beyond what you know. There is a way to find this truth. We know the truth: we know all about you, what you represent, and your role in this game. There is a larger game being played, and it is time for you to take your place in that game.

There have been many questions about us and The Eternals. The Eternals bring death and destruction; they threaten and cajole in order to gain members. Those who have joined have been told they will either be killed or lose their abilities if they do not join. The Guardians protect and give life. We gain members through offering help and guidance.

Understand that there is an imbalance. There are more Eternals than Guardians and they are causing needless death. We seek to rectify this. We need numbers higher than the others or the innocent will continue to suffer.

In order to gain members, the Eternals have been threatening those who they seek to recruit with harm. Their members had no real choice in their recruitment, and were forced into their ranks. The Eternals threaten our very existence and we seek to guard the world.

We understand that it is dangerous to join us at this point because of the attention it will bring. However, we can protect you if you join our ranks.

Join us and we will offer you the power of self-preservation: On one night, you may protect yourself from death. If you are targeted the night you use that power, you will live. This power can be used only once. Choose wisely on when to use it.

The other side has an easier time gaining members. We will not threaten in order to gather numbers. We seek only to protect the world and those within it.

We ask that you not share the specifics of what we have told you, as it is not yet time. You may simply tell the others that things have been explained, and that the Guardians seek to protect. You may tell them not to trust The Eternals.

Wait. Watch. Listen. The truth is coming, and its light shines through.

We are the Guardians. Will you join us?

BigC to GGG:

Notice of Corporate Restructuring

The Guardians Corporation Ltd. announces a restructuring of their Calgarypuck branch operations in response to lackluster recruiting efforts. Previous efforts have shown that the stated targets (100% recruitment rate) have not been met due to improper communication channels and a failure to provide adequate synergy opportunities.

In other words we're bad at this.

As part of our efforts to drive of recruitment we will be seeking talented individuals to join The Guardians Corporation Ltd. and help us meet our objectives and gain back ground ceded to The Eternals Company International.

END PRESS RELEASE, BEGIN BEGGING

Allow me to introduce myself, I am a representative of The Guardians and my task is to convince you to join us in our restructuring efforts. We provide a competitive benefits package which includes a one-shot tracking ability for the next night if you agree to join us.

I would like to remind you that the Eternals have been involved and prosecuted for unethical business practices and as such it is not smart to be involved with them. You would NOT like white collar prison!

Please join I am working on commissions and there's this sweet fitted 59FIFTY Kings cap I want to buy.

CC to GirlySports:

You arrive home, tired and exhausted after a long stressful day of debate and investigation. You walk into your living room and slump into your favorite chair when you notice a small metal box on your coffee table. It’s engraved with symbols that are unknown to you. You pick it up out of curiosity and inadvertently press on a symbol.

The box starts to moan as if suffering a thousand torments and you notice the symbols start to glow and you scream in horror and pain as you feel like you’re being pulled apart and re-assembled, you lose consciousness.

You wake up.

You are in a blasted landscape, the ground is cracked and parched and endless. The sky is red and rolling as if the air itself is on fire. You notice an object in the distance and stagger towards it.

It’s a throne, tall and ornate and made of dark marble. A hooded figure observes you, you can’t see the face of the person as the shadows obscure it, but you notice that the eyes are glowing with what seems to be mirth. The figure gestures to a soft cushion in front of the throne and you lower yourself on to it gratefully, a glass of water appears beside you and you drink deeply from it.

The figure leans forward and begins to speak to you, the voice is ageless, neither young or old, and it reverberates with many voices and sounds like its coming to you from every direction and at the same time from a great distance and from right over your shoulder.

“Hello my Friend, we don’t have much time together, so I don’t have time for anything as inane as answering foolish questions.”

You nod, and have a feeling that even if you wanted to you wouldn't be able to speak.

“I am the leader of the Eternals. We witnessed the start of the universe as you know it, we believe that the truest expression of power is the ability to shape your community around the ideals of a just, secure and orderly society. We despise Chaos, but believe that it is a useful tool in bringing about a freely accepted version of order.

We bought the wood that allowed Noah to build his Arc, so that he could watch a corrupt society drown. We paid Judas his 30 pieces of silver gladly to betray his best friend.

We see the greatness in you, and bought you before us to give you a warning and an offer.

Not everything is as it seems. The Guardians are not what they seem. Your so called friends are not what they seem. They see the power in you and the greatness in you and they tremble in fear and paranoia, and are looking at the quickest way to dispose of you. You are being deceived. The true visionaries have learned that the best path to power is to trust in your own wisdom and follow your instinct to survive.

My friend, those who serve the Guardians are liars and thieves in the service of liars and thieves. Make no mistake those who promote our gifts are somehow not genuine or not real powers are sadly and pitifully mistaken.”

The figure chuckles, it sounds like dry bones being shaken in a glass.

“Your petty squabbles are of no concern to us, our only concern is that the powerful should rule the weak, that is the order of things, and that only the powerful can bring about a truly fair and just society where corruption and wrong thinking will have no power. We see you as a vessel to bring this about in your reality.

We offer you the ability to control your ascension, to evaluate the weak and sweep aside those who are not worthy of a place at your feet. To eliminate those who cannot or are unable to serve but choose to sow doubt and chaos.”

The figure leans back in his throne and watches you carefully; his eyes narrow in contemplation as if he was holding a conversation with a person not there.

“Aren't you tired of constantly being accused by people with no vision, being attacked by the common rabble who should be grateful to be ruled in exchange for security? We give you the opportunity to bring society into line, a line that values peace and has no conflict.

We offer you membership in our ancient order, we offer you a seat at the table of power, and we offer you a gift that will allow you to survive against those that conspire against you. We will allow you to stop being in the service of liars and cheaters.”

The figure waves his hands and a small flame appears between them and grows in intensity and a small box emerges. He makes a pushing movement and the box drops into your hand and you scream as it burns you. You try to open it, but it’s locked or sealed.

“You have 24 hours to accept our offer. While time never ends, our patience does. If you accept, you will be given a mark of power for all to see and identify you as a member of our enlightened group and they will cry out in fear.

Be mindful in freely and honestly disclosing this conversation or information about this gift to your colleagues if you truly wish to take the first step to power. Our order was founded on guile and subterfuge. If you disclose this power freely, you will be targeted by the weak and fearful. Honesty is not your friend. Honest aspirants to power are cast aside by the unworthy.

But be warned, the costs of refusing us are great. We despise those who waste the potential levers of power. There is a possibility that you will become the weakest person in your society, powerless and capable of only serving. There is a possibility that you will become the condemned and be swept away like so much offal. Realize that if you don’t take this offer, someone else that is not your friend will. Eventually someone with vision will make the right decision.

Think hard about this my friend; what’s in this box could very well give you the ability to rule, forever.”

The figure leans back in his throne. You see that he is beginning to shimmer as if behind a wall of great heat yet you suddenly feel cold and hollow. He spreads his hands wide and brings them together with thunderous sound and you blink and wake up in your living room. The small box is on your coffee table which removes any doubt that this is a dream. You notice the markings on the side.



You notice an inscription of the box as well and wonder what it means.

tu praeter omnes une

You take the box and surprisingly it opens. A simple card is inside. It reads:

"A Jailkeeper (or Jailer)'s Night Action is one that protects its target from kills, but also Roleblocks its target."

A cold winds blows through your house and you shiver as it carries an ageless whisper.

“We are always watching”

BigC to Drury18:

HEY DRURY18 how's it going? It's us, The Guardians! I see you were prodding our good pal GGG there. I see there was also talk of him possibly being poisoned which came as a shock to us (mostly because we haven't been paying attention to this game). While it wouldn't be the end of the world if GGG dies a dishonorable death, it would be a real pain in the ass seeing as how we've just started gaining some ground against The Eternals. (More like The Eternal...######bags)

How about I play a cruel joke on you and offer you membership to The Guardians? It's not so bad, we have a book club meeting every Wednesday night and we host Smash tournaments every Sunday. (All items on btw THIS AIN'T NO FALCO ONLY TOURNEY) Also this way you and GGG can become BFFs or something. Like, if GGG gets murdered later in the game or something the least you could do is take his place and honor his memory by becoming part of The Guardians.

We'll even give you Watcher powers for the next night if you join, it's only fair since we gave GGG that sweet Tracker ability. Here's some testimony* from our other members if you need some more convincing:

"Before I joined The Guardians I was giving up hope on becoming fit, but after joining I lost 40 lbs!"-starseed

"I was going nowhere in my life but after joining The Guardians I feel as if I have some new meaning in my life!"-GGG

"I wasn't sure about joining The Guardians but I can confidently say that joining was the best decision I have made in my life."-Drury18 3 days from now

We trust you will make the right choice.

*Testimonies are made up for entertainment purposes only. Offer void in Quebec.

BigC to Oling_Roachinen:

Oling_Roachinen today is your lucky day! The Guardians R&D department has just finished developing their latest product and they want YOU to test it out! This miracle product will change your life! Have you ever woken up one day and thought to yourself "This (CP Mafia 3 player) is grinding my gears! The game would be so much better without (CP Mafia 3 player) ruining it."? Do you find yourself constantly thinking about settling grudges in the most violent way possible? Do you frequently fantasize about doing illegal things to this person? If you said yes to any of these questions you should probably seek help, and while you do that you can also volunteer to try out our new product!

The Guardians is proud to announce the trial run of the DIY Vigilante Kit. This product will allow you to daykill one player of your choice with the most fiercest FALCON PUNCH imaginable! Simply type the command "Kill: (Player name)", sit back, and watch the fireworks fly. And unlike beta test steam games this is guaranteed not to leave you bitter and disappointed! All of this can be yours if you join our benevolent organization.

Obviously this daykill won't work against members of The Guardians, that would be very unprofessional!
