    Default Open WW: Nowhere to hide (running)

    Open WW

    Nowhere to run to, baby
    Nowhere to hide
    Got nowhere to run to, baby
    Nowhere to hide

    For hundreds of years, a secret war was fought in between the cracks of civilizations. Four sides, each there own ideals, battled for supremacy of the worlds hidden in the shadows.

    Although the secret battles between the honorable Knights, the wild Werewolves, the destructive Demons, and the mighty Dragons seemed to be having little effect of the stability of the world. the damage done to the underground was immense.

    Someone decided the time to keep secrets was over.
    And our souls were opened.

    Rules:
    Spoiler
    Show

    1) NO PMs to anyone except to the narrator(s). NONE.

    2) There are 5 teams in Open WW. The members of these teams are revealed when the game starts.

    3) Roles are not revealed on death. Role claiming is allowed.

    4) Votes are posted in the thread. Lynch votes and Night Kill votes. You heard me.

    5) If you are killed, you can't post in the thread (Except for "Aww man, I am dead.") until you are resurrected or reanimated.

    6) If you die and wish to reenter the game, you can return as a Deathsoul any night after your death. Deathsouls lose their former roles, and powers until resurrected.

    7) 25% majority rule for Lynch. Once a 25% majority has been reached, rounded down, whoever has the most votes after 24 hours is dead. If no 25% majority is reached, the mob cannot gather sufficient numbers to lynch anyone. If that happens 3 times, Dark Lord Lezro opens his maw, unleashes the horrors of the underworld upon the lands, and the Deathsouls win. That's it man. Game over, man. Game over!

    7 again) Living player lynch Votes and Demon NK Votes are done in red text. Wolf NK Votes are in blue text. Deathsoul lynch Votes and in bold underlined text.

    8) Helgraf's Scry Interference. If two characters with a scry ability look at the same player, both will get "Interference" as a result. Scriers gets roles though.

    9) Players will be autolynched only if they do not point for 3 days straight. If you let me know that you will be gone for more than a week, TOO BAD YOU DEAD. Naw, I'll let it slide.

    10) Don't trust the king of the fairies.

    I think I might join this game. With the dragon team do both of the members get the same team choice or do they choose the team they want to win seperately?

    Also what do alpha seers scry as? Alpha often make them scry as villager but that wouldn't make sense.

    The dragons must choose the same team.

    In before I'm low enough on the list that Internet Flea votes for me on day 1.

    Edit 1: Wolfsoul "GOAL: Have equal or greater number than Wolfsouls and Demonsouls"
    I assume you meant Knightsoul there?

    And I'm a little confused. Do the Deathsouls win at 2 no-lynches or 3? Because in the rules it's three and in the goals it's 2.

    Edit 2: In that case I want to be a Dragonsoul.

    Anyone who wishes to be on a particular team, can say so. I might put you one it if I feel like being nice.
    It's not like you wont know who is on which one when the game starts.

    Basic WW rules except I tell you who the wolves (and the demons, and the dragons) are on DAY 1.

    You just have to lynch them.

    @Ramsus: 3 no-lynches for Deathsoul win.

    Wait. Dragonsouls is now a 1 man band? That's...that's harsh. I will hope others play so I don't have to live with that scenario.

    Edit: Looking at the rules again....how are Dragonsouls supposed to win if everyone knows that they're Dragonsouls? A stolen Knightsoul or Wolfsoul victory would be impossible. It would only be possible for the Dragonsouls to win as far as I can tell by wanting Demonsouls to win and for the Demonsouls to accidentally attain victory before they thought they would.

    Now that Saposhiente is playing, I can add both dragonsouls.
    The victory conditions of the other 4 sides are not affected by the dragonsouls. The Knights need to kill the Wolves and Demons. The Wolves need to reduce the Knights and Demons. Demons have the targets. And the Deathsouls want 3 no lynches. The dragons just need to help their chosen side and survive. The other sides might not have the time to waste offing dragons.

    The Teams:


    The Knightsouls
    450 knights
    30 dwarves
    20 mechaknights
    7 Knight commanders:
    • Tydude
