Thursday Next WW I: The Eyre Affair- Game On!

[The Bookworm]

Prologue: Characters Wanted!
‘The job recruitment office in Swindon is a dry and dismal place, very rarely used by anyone. Occasionally, however, some sad soul will stick a notice on the wall, hoping someone will come by and take the job or jobs offered. They rarely do, but sometimes someone will come along, see the papers, and accept a job. And it is for that reason that no one has yet knocked it down.’
-MILLON DE FLOSS, The Definitive Guide to Swindon

At the moment, a thin layer of dust is over everything in the office. However, a few dusty notes (displayed below) are hanging on the wall.

The rules to this WW game are that of any other: 48 hour days, 24 hour nights, point in red, points at the narrator or nobody do not count. Autolynches are after three inactive days. There is no 25% lynch, and scry interference is in effect. There are no secret roles!

Roles:
Hades and Associates (Wolves)- Win by Having Equal Number Compared to Villagers/Neutral
Acheron Hades (Alpha): The leader of the wolves, you scry as a Swindon Citizen.
Hobbes (Devil): You can scry someone once per night.
Felix7, Felix8 (Wolves): You, along with the others on Team Hades, choose one person to kill each night.
Dr Muller (Beast): If lynched, one of those who voted for you and is not on your team is taken down. This is determined randomly.

The Next Family, SpecOps, and the Swindon Citizens (Villagers)- Win by Eliminating Wolves
Swindon Citizens (Villagers): You can vote once per day phase to pick someone to lynch, like all other roles. You have no other powers.
Thursday Next (Sniper, Alpha Mason): You are the leader of the Masons. Once every third night, you may pick someone to night kill.
Next Family: Joffy, Polly, Mycroft, Wednesday (Masons): You know each other and Thursday Next.
Colonel Next (Seer): You can collect information on one person per night by time traveling. This lets you know their role.
Rochester (Baner): Every night, you can pick someone to protect from any night kills.
Bowden Cable (Fool): You think you know people’s identities, but you are wrong. You are told you are Colonel Next, but whatever scry results you receive are random.
Victor Analogy (Transmuter?): Every night, you are PMed an ability that you can use that night.
Braxton Hicks: Your vote counts as two.

Goliath Corporation (Neutral)- Win by Eliminating Thursday, Mycroft, and Acheron, and at least one member surviving, can win w/ another side
Jack Schitt (Transmuter?/Beast*)- Every night, you are PMed an ability that you can use that night. If 1 Thug is dead, you are PMed an ability every other night. If both are dead, you have no powers.
2 Goliath Thugs- Power Source for Jack Schitt
*If Schitt is lynched, two people (randomly determined) who voted for Schitt are killed (if both thugs are alive), one person who voted for Schitt is killed (if one thug is alive), or nobody who voted for Schitt is killed (if both thugs are dead). If Schitt is night-killed by the wolves, and both thugs are alive, one wolf role (standard wolf if any are alive, otherwise the beast, if beast is dead the devil, if devil is dead Acheron) is killed. If one or both thugs are dead, no one is killed if Schitt are night-killed. If Schitt is night-killed by Thursday or Victor and two thugs are alive, s/he dies as well. If less than two thugs are alive, no one is killed.

If Goliath has won, another side can also prevail. However, survival does not equal success for Goliath. If one of the other sides wins before Goliath, Goliath cannot win.

I'd like to give this a try, if it's all right that I've never played Werewolf and don't know the first thing about the Thursday Next books.

[Opeth_Freak]

Hmm... I think I might be able to try more then two games... so long as I don't get sidetracked again...

[Vwulf DeMarcus]

Haven't read the books,(actually didn't know that they were books, but...) IN! (hopes I'm a power role) I was killed in the first werewolf game I ever played. Day 2 lynch.

[banthesun]

I prefer the NCD books, but I'm still in!

[Timberwolf]

*seconds* These books are soooooooo much fun. Everyone needs to go read them!

And they're even better if you've actually been to Swindon...

(I live pretty near, for my sins)

[The Bookworm]

Okay, we have 19 players. That's about 2/3 of what I'd hoped for, but there's still 8 or 9 more days of recruitment left before it closes. Sign up, people! @V Sorry, that was my inner frustrated DM speaking. Calm down, inner frustrated DM. This is a WW game. This is not that D&D Campaign.

[Selrahc]

Alright already! Didn't need to go all invisible yelly type on me.

[Shadowcaller]

Since I won't be able to narrate anything until I got settled in the university...

I am joining this game.

[toasty]

This looks good. Never heard of the books or anything, but still, I'd love to play. :)

[rakkoon]

[The Bookworm]
