Faction Introduction:
(Benign Groupscum)
Zombies have a factional PT they can post in at any time they are alive or treestumped.
Zombies have inherit multitasking, and each member can perform the zombie factional ability simultaneously.
Factional Ability: Horde Attack. At night any number of zombies may attempt to
bite
a player. If the number of zombies attempting to
bite
a player is at least 1 more than the number of non-zombies that visited the player, that player becomes infected. If it instead is 2 or more than the number of non-zombies visiting, the player is also strongmaan killed. For each layer of protection on the target (bulletproof, doctor, etc) it counts as an additional non-zombie player visiting them. (So it takes 3 zombies to kill a Bulletproof player, but 2 zombies can infect them. It would take 4 zombies to kill a player protected by a doctor, since the player was both visited once and protected.)
Infected players as well as zombies that die are instead treestumped (unless killed by an arsonist or other fire ability). Non-groupscum players treestumped in this way are recruited to the
Zombies
. Groupscum players will appear recruited and function the same way, but retain their original win condition. They do not flip.
Treestumps caused like this can still perform their role's actions as well as any factional actions they have (except recruited third parties, who may no longer use their third party abilities). Their roles are reduced to one-shot, and they can only do the factional ability once. When a treestumped player like this has no more night actions, they die properly, and they flip as both their original alignment, and as a zombie.
"Recruited" groupscum can perform both their original groupscum ability as well as the zombie factional ability simultaneously.
Win Condition: The
win when the number of zombies (including zombified groupscum), is equal to or greater than the number of non-zombie players alive. Treestumped zombies count as 1 zombie, living zombies as 1.5 zombies, and dead zombies as .5 zombies for this win condition.
When this win condition happens all zombies lose access to any abilities, and all living zombies are treestumped. Then, all treestumped zombies flip their roles. They may continue to play as a treestump or freely exit the game and enter the dead thread at any time. Any infected players still alive will become a normal treestump on death.
