In Sauron's quest to liberate the middle-earth, some pesky humans who call themselves heroes have appeared, trying to keep their grasp on the lands that are rightfully Orcs'. They're now trying to destroy an ancient artifact, the ring of power, which holds the orcish civilization together. They will try to kill - to infiltrate, to further their goal of conquering all land.
Cult of the Ring
Spoiler
Gandalf
With his ill-gained demi-godly powers, Gandalf can scry one middle-earth dweller every night, learning their role. Aragorn
Skilled in stealth and trickery, Aragorn, when scried, appears as Orc. Legolas
With his elven stature, Legolas is fragile. This basically means, at the end of every Day period, he gets another lynch vote. When Legolas is lynched (not assassinated), his quick reflexes allow him to shoot one last arrow, killing someone at random of his lynchers. Gimli
Being a dwarf, Gimli is tougher than most, and thus starts the day with -2 lynch votes. Hobbits
Tricking their way into the council of treachery, they're now a part of Cult of the Ring.
Defenders of Middle-Earth
Spoiler
Saruman
His magical affinity allows Saruman to scry on one middle-earth dweller every night. Lurtz
As the leader of the Uruk-Hai, every night, Lurtz can guard someone from the humans. Wormtongue
Stealthy and cunning, Grima Wormtongue can trick even the most tricky human, and assassinate them without trace. Every night, he gets to assassinate someone. Witch-King
Most powerful of the Nazgūl, Witch-King rides a Fellbeast to battle. The fellbeast (controlled by the WK), gets a vote for lynching, and when WK would die for the first time, the fellbeast does instead. As a being of magic, he can't be guarded by mundane means Orcs
Real owners of the middle-earth, the orcs try to defend their world from the humans.
Billtodamax will be the co-narrator.
I'm hoping for 19-20 people, so we can use all roles.
Scry-Interference is not in effect.
Majority lynches (no need for %)
Night-kill is vote-based.
In case of a tie, first one to reach the number of points gets lynched first.

Long separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the grassy field toward each other like two freight trains, one having left Cleveland at 6:36 p.m. traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19 p.m. at a speed of 35 mph.

Can we maybe have a current player list? I think we're up to around 10 people so far.

What shall I say to thee, rakkoon, thou cruel,
Ingrateful, savage and inhuman creature,
That knewst the very bottom of my soul,
That almost mightst have coined me into gold
Wouldst thou have practiced on me for thy use?
