Custom Life Reimagined
This project was commissioned by a friend for our server, so this is a bundle of his ideas and mine.
Based on Grian's Life Series.
Gameplay
At the start when you run the pack it will roll 4-6 lives for everyone on the server, then you can start the session (time can be chosen in the settings) about two minutes after the start, the boogeymen are chosen; their goal is to hunt one of the players to satisfy the boogey curse. They will be rewarded two hearts for the hunt.
When a player gets down to two lives left, they will gain a yellow nametag and will be rewarded three hearts upon eliminating another player; if the chosen boogeyman is yellow, they will be rewarded four hearts instead.
(note: yellows start at eight hearts instead of ten)
When a player gets down to one life left, they will gain a red nametag and gain five hearts on kill. Red players can't become the boogeyman and if the a boogeyman dies and goes down to red, they will be spared of the boogeyman role.
At around the 20minute mark, a hint will be given to the boogeyman providing the coordinates of a random player; that player will be warned of the hunting boogeymen. The number of times they receive the warning will indicate the number of boogeymen hunting them.
When a Boogeyman fails to hunt a player before the end of a round they will lose a life.
There is an altar you can place that will grant you another life in exechange for ten hearts.
(note: You must have at least eleven hearts to exchange)
