Game Mechanics Speculation

Not the kind with cardstock and pawns. Mostly play by post Mafia so far.

Who's likely to be a character, and what will their role be? Will there be a cult? etc, etc.

Good god I hope there's no cult.

Since there are 6 mafia, I doubt it. Last time there were only 3 killers, small for a game of 20, because there was also a cult faction to add extra scum.

Kaylo
Rhysel
Keo
Narax
Leekath
Talyn (who I'm guessing is the actual role of our traitor)
Shrens

Actually, let's stop there and talk about shrens. I would be super surprised if shrens didn't end up being a thing in this game. But I don't really have good ideas about how they'd be implemented. What does immunity to pain mean in Mafia terms?

(If Keo is a mindreader, presumably something bad happens to her when she mindreads a shren. That much I'm confident in.)
