Mynx Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Come one, come all, to hunt the wolf! This is the official sign-up thread for a new Werewolf game. If you have any questions regarding the rules, please check here. The theme of this game is the basic format - let's just get the ball rolling before we begin to make things too interesting I know things are still quiet, so there's no time limit on signing up for right now - I just want to see what numbers we get. For now, please post if you want to play, and feel free to create a character for the fun Quote
Peredhil Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Peredhil signs up for his first ever Werewolf game. Okay then. A wolf hunt! This will be great fun, I'm certain. Do we use blunted weapons? Will Tanuchan get much of a head start? She's very clever, she'll probably run us in circles for hours! Are there limitations on magic? He bounces slightly in anticipation and kisses his wife with sparkling eyes. What fun! Quote
Tanuchan Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Uh-oh.... o.O Tanny backs up carefully, leaving in a hurry - not quite running. Behind her, the parchment with Mynx's announcement floats down to the desk, bearing now a pawprint after Peredhil's name. Ehm... I'm in. Eyes Peredhil carefully. I'll die if I end up being the wolf. Period. Quote
Peredhil Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Oh. Dear. Just read the rules. I am SO sorry. Scritches Tanny's neck with both hands. I appear to have been confused. Although it might have been fun... Quote
Tanuchan Posted June 15, 2014 Report Posted June 15, 2014 Mrr... ^.^ ... Shakes self. Stop that, Peredhil... you know I completely melt down when you do that... >.> Quote
Patrick Posted June 16, 2014 Report Posted June 16, 2014 An owl in wolf's clothing...nope A villager in owl's clothing...nope A wolf in owl's clothing...maybe... I guess I'll figure it out eventually. Quote
Lord Panther Posted June 18, 2014 Report Posted June 18, 2014 Oh, sounds like fun... count me in... more details to follow. Quote
Venefyxatu Posted June 19, 2014 Report Posted June 19, 2014 Oohh, it's been a while! Sign me up as the town idiot . Possibly with a drinking history, but he's left that behind him now. Very definitely behind him. The last time he got drunk... but we don't talk about that. Nobody talks about that... Quote

Mynx Posted June 19, 2014 Author Report Posted June 19, 2014 *grins* So currently I have: - Peredhil - Tanuchan - Patrick - Lord Panther - Venefyxatu I'd like to get a few more players so will be leaving this open for at least another week. If I don't get more numbers we'll have a smaller game with just one wolf but I might draw out the day phases a bit to allow more time for conni- er... role-playing... Quote
Patrick Posted June 19, 2014 Report Posted June 19, 2014 I shall play a young man, son of a a family that has lived in the village for generations, and as his father, grandfather and grandfather's grandfather before him, he married his own sister, because that was the custom. Quote
Tanuchan Posted June 23, 2014 Report Posted June 23, 2014 Tentative character: Tennison, daughter of the local innkeeper In her early twenties, she's a very no-nonsense kind of girl. Helps running the inn, and can be found either tending to the tables or to the kitchen, or even the bar counter. Not many dare to cross her, though she is pretty of face and body, and knows how to have fun (of the kind she chooses and appreciates). We'll see how this goes Quote
Mynx Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Posted June 27, 2014 Okay, quick update. Our players are as follows: - Peredhil - TBA- Tanuchan - Tennison, daughter of the local innkeeper- Patrick - (Name?), a young man- Lord Panther - TBA- Venefyxatu - (Name?), the town idiot/drunk There will only be one Wolf in the game given the small numbers, but even with that it would be a very short game as things stand. SO. There is going to be an addition to the rules that my lovely braintwin helped me plan out, but I do not have the time to explain it right now. Expect an update this weekend Quote
Tanuchan Posted June 27, 2014 Report Posted June 27, 2014 A black wolf peeks in, mumbles something, then leaves in a run. It's not my fault! Quote
Peredhil Posted June 27, 2014 Report Posted June 27, 2014 Peredhil eyes Tanny warily. She was protesting her innocence far too much - and her tail was wagging in secret glee. So, a standard village. Prolly in the woods, has wolves in the area. I will be Abercrombie. I live on the downwind side of town. I run sheep and some goats, and have a couple of working dogs to help me with them. I also collect the chamber pots for the village, and put the contents into a large vat used for tanning leather, particularly from my sheep and goats, although I'll buy pelts and hides. Quote
Patrick Posted June 27, 2014 Report Posted June 27, 2014 - Patrick - (Name?), a young man Let's just call him John. Quote
Venefyxatu Posted June 27, 2014 Report Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) With his wooden leg and bushy grey beard Graham is a familiar sight in town, known by everyone. He'll often sit in the highest branches of the tree on the town square, staring out as if over an ocean. Other times he's wandering the streets, muttering to himself or anyone who wants to listen. And even to those who don't want to listen, though they generally have no trouble hurrying away. He's not the pursuing kind, and people have wondered whether he's even aware of the people around him. After all, they have seen him talking to trees and benches as well... "Noooo, sir, no way. The squallop goes over the dingarideedoo, not under it!" Edited June 27, 2014 by Venefyxatu Quote
Mynx Posted June 28, 2014 Author Report Posted June 28, 2014 Okay! Let me see if I can make this make sense. The game will have only one Wolf, but we are going to have the introduction of a new set of specials: the Spirit. The Spirit is the ghost of a Villager who has been killed, either via lynching or by the Wolf. Essentially, it gives the player a second chance at the game, though there's an added feature to the role. Every time a Spirit is created, there is a 50% chance that they are Malevolent. A Malevolent Spirit does not work with the Wolf, but they both have the same end goal - eliminate the Villagers and Benevolent Spirits. A Benevolent Spirit, like the Villagers, is trying to kill the Wolf and Banish any Malevolent Spirits. If they are Benevolent, they also have a 50% chance of becoming a Seer, or (if there is already a Seer Spirit), a Baner. The role will not be announced to the players at large, only to the individuals affected. It is up to you to use the information as you wish. Spirits cannot interact directly with players, but that doesn't mean they can't find a way to make contact - talk to people in dreams, work on your poltergeist-isms, I'm sure you'll figure it out. A Spirit's vote counts as one, just like all other players. During Day phase, Villagers can decide to either attempt to lynch the Wolf, or hire a Priest (NPC) to Banish the Spirit if they suspect it to be Malevolent. During Night phase, the Wolf can target and Banish a Spirit instead of kill a Villager. A Banished Spirit is truly gone from the game - so no Spirits of Spirits, sorry Roles will not be disclosed at the time of lynching, death, or Banishment, so you're just going to have to stay on your toes. Criteria for an End Game: Wolf and Malevolent Spirits = Villagers and Benevolent Spirits -> Wolf/Malevolent Spirits win. Wolf and Malevolent Spirits all successfully lynched/Banished -> Villagers/Benevolent Spirits win. Please, post here or PM me with any questions about this new development Players: - Peredhil - Abercrombe, the sheep and goat herder- Tanuchan - Tennison, daughter of the local innkeeper- Patrick - John, a young man- Lord Panther - TBA- Venefyxatu - Graham, the town idiot/drunk I intend to begin the game this coming week.

Azuran Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 Wow, such an impressive collection of familiar and talented faces; it's difficult to resist joining in. Is it too late to take part in this game of delicious drama, deception, and death? Quote
Tanuchan Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 Azuran!!! *flying tacklehugs* By all means, do join! I'll tug my braintwin's tail and wrap it around her head if she doesn't let you Quote
Mynx Posted June 30, 2014 Author Report Posted June 30, 2014 I like my tail where it is, thankyouverymuch Welcome back, Azuran. Please, join in the madness Quote
Lord Panther Posted July 3, 2014 Report Posted July 3, 2014 Hhmm, let's see. We'll try this character on for size: Curtis - The town drunk. Not a violent or loud drunk, but a man that always appears to be under the influence of his poison of choice. With his habit, Curtis often finds his pockets rather empty of the coin needed to pay for his pleasure. Often willing to do small menial jobs, nothing stable or long-lasting of course, in order to put a few coins in his aforementioned empty pockets and continue his chosen lifestyle. Quote
Mynx Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Posted July 3, 2014 It's going to be a battle of drunks... Players: - Peredhil - Abercrombe, the sheep and goat herder - Tanuchan - Tennison, daughter of the local innkeeper - Patrick - John, a young man - Lord Panther - Curtis, the town drunk - Venefyxatu - Graham, the town idiot/drunk - Azuran - TBA 1 Quote
Azuran Posted July 3, 2014 Report Posted July 3, 2014 "Allow me to grace you with an introduction. I am...Lord Bartholomew M. Persius the Third." *brief pause in a regal pose for admiration* Lord Bartholomew isn't technically a Lord. But then he isn't very rich or particularly good looking either despite how he might act. He runs a large (ok, quaint) shop selling finely dyed bolts of cloth, with a small selection of extravagant clothing ("the largest collection of dashing capes within at least fifty leagues!"). He likes to think of himself as a beneficent noble in the village, and for the most part everybody's happy to smile knowingly behind his back and humor him. Quote
Mynx Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Posted July 3, 2014 Lol. Excellent! I am busy tonight but I will do my best to get the ball rolling tomorrow Quote
