Default Werewolf Classic Lite - Game on!

This is basically your classic game, with one rather drastic change. Save for wolves, there are no power roles! No masons, no seer, no fool, no baner and of course, no devil. The point, you ask? We wanna make villagers start thinking with their own head again, not just wait for seer to take their hand and lead them to victory. Hopefully, this will lead to some interesting debates, some good strategies and perhaps it will show that people still know how to play the game as it was originally intended: with their own wits, not just by waiting for some higher force to show them the way.

I'm looking for 20 players, 15 is the very minimum that I will take. If this will work, in the future we can make the game bigger. We work on the first come, first served base. Once I get enough players, recruitment will close, roles will go out and we can start playing right away. There will be no autolynch replacements! So if you want to play, better sign up fast. And if you think you can't post once in every five days, then don't sign up and give somebody who actually wants to play a chance. Autolynch will be enforced after two days of nonposting. Days last 48 hours, nights last 24 hours.

With this, we want to prove that villager is not a boring and powerless role, as so many players think. So if you agree with this, sign up now!

Happyturtle is my co-narrator, if she still wants the place. If not, I'll do it myself.

List of players(5/21):

Stop stealing my spotlight, dammit!

Ahem! Yeah, that's it people. 20 players. Roles should go out in about *checks* five, six hours. I think it's the best if we continue the game in this thread, so check it back here once you get that role PM. It shouldn't take long for opening narration to be up.

Narrator over and out!

((Since we're nice guys, we'll let Andre join So we have 21 players, list updated and...))

Game starts now!

Time: somewhere between Christ birth and now.
Place: a quiet and serene village a sight of future bloodbath
Purpose: FUN!

We find ourselves overlooking a small village, nestled among the hills, as it starts waking on the beautiful morning. Birds are singing, sun is shining... it's the very picture of serenity. But this isn't to last for long.

The day goes by more or less uneventful. A tax collector here, a broken wheel on a carriage... the usual. Kids breaking a window in the inn results in owner starting the chase and spanking one of them. The night quickly draws in and as it does, two persons can be spotted walking down the street.

“Life is good lately, isn't it?“

“Indeed. No wolves around for some time. I think I'm going to throw wolfbane away. It stinks anyway! Maybe I'll start cultivating roses...“

And with that, the woman throws a large bag onto the bonfire in the center of the village, to which they have just arrived. A foul smoke start coming out of it and is gone as soon as it starts.

“That was a bad idea...“

A low growl comes from behind them, just from the edge of the light circle given by bonfire. And soon after that, a small man walks into it, horns protruding from his skull.

“Ah, mister Mordokai and miss Turle... what a delight to see you. Too bad this will be the last of it. Boys, get them.“

A crunching noises can be heard, as fangs start breaking the bones. Soon, the feast is over.

“Now what?“

“Now, we get the rest of them. Without these two, they are powerless and... oh, excuse me.“

A loud beeping can be heard from within his robes and he reaches in them, pulling out... a beeper?

“Well, damn! It would appear Lucifer demands my presence in Hell. Something about paperwork I'm sure it's nothing, but I can't let him wait. So I'm afraid you're going to have to do this on your own. Cha cha!“

And with a twist of his coat, he dissapears in a plum of smoke, before surprised wolves can do so much as blink.

“So what do we do now?“

But before they can get any further, an alarm is raised. It would seem the screams of the first two victims didn't go unnoticed after all. Not much is left for the wolves but to dissapear.

When villagers arrive at the scene, they find mutilated bodies of Mordokai and happyturle. It's soon clear what's going on.

“They killed seer and baner on night one! What do we do now?!“

“They haven't gotten masons yet! Quickly, to the club house!“

But much to their chagrin, when they arrive, they find only a note on the doors.

Left for union vacation, be back in a month or so. Keep safe! Sincerely yours

The Masons


Well, this is certainly a kick in the nuts. Looks like you're left to your own wits. Lets just hope you still have them...

Summary: Mordokai was killed by wolves, he was the seer. happyturtle was killed by wolves, she was the baner. Day one starts now and ends in 48 hours.

Last in, first out! Radikalskippy to die! Let's burn him, or hit him with a silver hatstand or whatever you're supposed to do with wolves. Possibly we are supposed to cry them? Or is that what you're not supposed to do?

Anyway. Blood!
