Athena (good cylon) –Each night she can scan to find cylons.
Athena would submit a name to scan. The answer to her question will be Cylon or Human. If Athena is lynched the autopsy will show cylon. If she finds Galen before D'Anna she will be told that she has found Galen. If she finds Galen after D'anna she wil only be told she has found a Cylon.
She has the one time power to get an extra scan during the day when a cylon target is found, to determine which cylon was detected (may be used anytime as long as that Cylon is alive). Cylons will know they were scanned when used.
Felix Gaeta -The only good Cylon is a dead Cylon is his philosophy. Gaeta has the ability to manipulate the vote and cast an extra secret vote (by PM to MOD)against a player when he feels they must be a Cylon. He may only use this ability twice. (It is considered "used" when both votes are cast and not withdrawn at the end of a lynch vote).
Gaeta is also determined to find out everything he can about the Cylons. Know your enemy. He may research a dead player each night. If they are human, that is the only info he will receive but if he researches a Cylon he will learn the role of the Cylon.
Starbuck – She can protect one person per night. If she protects a bad cylon (not Athena), She’s dead and that will override any kill selection of the cylons. She can protect the same player more than once but NOT on consecutive nights. She may choose to protect herself or no one.
Starbuck each night may search for the player with the gun. If she finds the player with the gun she may disarm that player on any day if they draw the weapon to fire. If the weapon has been passed to another person at night then Starbuck cannot disarm until she finds the new player with the weapon (She may continuously check the same person if she wishes). If the weapon is passed during the day and Starbuck has identified the gun holder on a previous night, she will notice the exchange and know the identity of the new gun holder. (If the option to disarm is available then the Moderator will e-mail Starbuck and ask if she wishes to disarm, as the player with the gun is about to shoot, but not who he will shoot).
Good guy/potential bad guy
Galen Tyrol –He is unsure of his loyalty after discovering he is a cylon but continues to assist the humans. If he is found by Athena he will give his sidearm to another player of his choice at anytime during the game (day or night after the night found), that player then will have the ability to kill during the day cycle (does not replace the lynch). Galen will give the player the gun and they will exchange info (allowed one PM to each other). The player with the gun then may use it at anytime during the day cycle. (As a good cylon, he will not use the sidearm, and yes he could accidentally pass it to a bad cylon).
If found by D’Anna, he will then have the one time ability to kill during the day. He will count toward the Cylons side and have access to the forum. (If D'Anna finds him after Athena, she will just be told his role and he will not switch sides to the Cylons at this point).
If not found he counts for the human side.
Citizens – Citizens have no power other than voting.

Bad Guys
Ellen - she sleeps with a player of her choice each night. That player, if he has a special role, cannot perform any special functions that night. Cannot sleep with the same player two nights in a row. Also if Ellen uses her special scan, she cannot sleep with that player again for the remainder of the game. Ellen can be denied her nightly adventure by a Starbuck protection of that person. Twice during the game she may search the players room she is sleeping with to determine if they have a special role, but not what role they play. Results of scan would be special or not special. (Yes, Everyone will know when they've slept with Ellen, she's that good)
D’Anna-each night she may research the background of a living player to determine their role If she finds Galen Tyrol before Athena, he will switch to the Cylon side.
Leoben - has a mysterious psychic connection to Starbuck but does not know her identity. Each night he may scan a human and ask if the human is Starbuck. He may also once during the game psychically interrupt Starbucks protection (prevent her from protecting one night).
Sequence:
1. Leoben interrupts Starbuck
2. Starbuck searches for player with the gun.
3. Starbuck protects
4. Ellen gets nasty
5. Cylons assassinate
6. D'Anna scans.
7. Athena scans
8. Leoben scans
9. Gaeta researches
Hours in the game day shift:
Day 1 -18 hours
Day 2 -18 hours
Day 3 -15 hours
Day 4+ -12 Hours
What does this mean?
Each Real day time (24 hours give or take an hour or 2) is 3 hours of game time
Translation:
Day 1 = 6 RL Days
Day 2 = 6 RL Days
Day 3 = 5 RL Days
Day 4 and on = 4 RL Days.
Weekends will be an extension of Friday or added to Monday.
So Day 1 would last 6 days plus weekends. If no lynch happens then everyone goes to bed and the night cycle starts.
Victory
Humans win by killing all the Cylons (except Athena & Galen if unconverted)
Cylons win by killing enough humans to make the sides even thus ensuring a cylon victory.(Athena counts toward humans. Galen counts toward humans if unconverted).
