Werewolf Lite CDVI: Ultimate Labyrinth Escape
38784417_maze_wallpapers.jpg

You wake up disoriented. You look around and find several other people with the same puzzled expression in their face. You are surrounded by tall, black stone walls, in what seems to be a maze. However, you have no the slightest idea on how you got there and it seems the rest of your companions don't know either.

Before you can figure out what's going on or get acquainted with the others, a loud voice comes out of nowhere. "Welcome, participants! You have been selected to participate in Ultimate Labyrinth Escape. Your mission, whether you choose to accept it or not, is to escape this maze. At first glance, it may seem as a regular maze, but it is not. Where would the fun be in that? The halls are filled with death traps and assorted monsters that you will have to avoid to get out and win the game. For added fun, some of you will try to kill the others before escaping, so be sure to find them before they get you. I expect and exciting competition, our audience expects no less from you. Good luck!"

Okay everyone, we are leaving in five minutes! I don't care if you can't find your hairbrush or your mixtape -- we were supposed to leave an hour ago, and we'll never beat the traffic if we wait any longer! So pile into the station wagon, mark your territory with tape, and don't forget the snacks! We're off on a great adventure across the United States, and we're not going to stop more than once a day! As long as everything goes according to plan, we should be fine...
 
WEREWOLF CCXXIV: PDXCon 2018

2efp6k2.jpg

The much awaited event of the year is here: The Paradox Convention 2018, where fans, developers and publishers alike will come together and discuss, play, eat and party together, whether they prefer building bustling metropolis, conquering Europe, the world or the universe, murdering their relatives for some title or worrying about POPs.

It will be an event for the ages in Stockholm, where everybody will have fun and get to know more about their favorite games and developers. However, unbeknownst to them, a shadow of envy and greed looms over the convention: other developers and publishers have sent their own people to the convention in hopes of disrupting Paradox, so they can finally take control of those niches where the Swedish company reigns supreme. Who knows? Maybe they could even resort to murder if that helps them achieve their goals. Will they? Or will Paradox and its fans prevail before it's too late and then proceed to kill each other in that EU4 multiplayer game everyone is talking about?

Something is clear, however, it will be the most interesting Paradox Convention so far.

Welcome to Athens in the 5th Century BCE, the birthplace of Western poetry, drama, philosophy, democracy and all sorts of lovely things that we rightly celebrate to this day! Here, political decisions are made after speeches and debate in the assembly. The ability to persuade one’s fellow citizens with one’s rhetorical prowess is or before the judges in the courts is greatly esteemed. Not all of the citizens giving speeches do so in accordance with justice and the good, however; instead their speeches are motivated by their lust for gold, or power, or public esteem! After all, if one has the skills of a master orator, despite knowing nothing at all about accounting, horsemanship, medicine, or pastry making, by making speeches about the just and the unjust one can bend the wills of the finest doctors, accountants, pastry chefs, and make them into your slaves! Mmm…. Pastries!

As devoted Athenian citizens, you understand that these self-serving rhetoricians pose a great risk to health of the polis and the state of the souls of its citizens. These demagogues turn the souls of the masses towards the desire of base things instead of towards the just and the good! They encourage the state to commit of barbarities against the inhabitants of Lesbos or ill-considered invasions of Sicily. But... these sly orators are a subtle bunch and they can often seem as though they indeed possess true wisdom, when in fact their seeming is simply artifice! The only way to determine who is a true philosopher, who devotes him/herself to the look of being, and who is a vile sophist, running off into the darkness of non-being with his imitative art, is by engaging them in probing dialogue and putting their ideas to the test! Once identified, you must waste no time in persuading one's fellow citizens to ostracize this scourge. One cannot simply hope for a divine Seer to rid the polis of this scourge! You, the citizens of the polis and true philosophers, must do this yourself! Should you fail, the sophists are sure to corrupt the polis in all kinds of terrible ways and put the true philosophers to death!

Werewolf Lite CDXVIII: College Applications

Girl-Student.png


It is finally time that someone steps up and says what needs to be said: The college admissions process is broken and needs to be fixed. The current system for gaining entry to elite colleges discourages unique passions and deems many talented students ineligible.

Thus, at the Werewolf Institute of Paradoxplaza, we have a much better system of choosing who to accept and who to reject. Applicants will be split into groups of 17, 3 of whom will secretly be an admissions officer trying to murder the others. If the 14 can weed out the evil-doers and survive, they will be admitted. We believe this process will allow us to select for smart, active, engaged students who can show a good capability at teamwork, as well as being less stressful for the students themselves than standard college application procedures.

Let the games begin! We hope to see you on campus soon :)
 
A reminder that the new Lite is up ! Only 6 places remaining !

Black-Order-Brigade-EN.jpg


Based on the following comic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Black_Order_Brigade

In the Europe of the late 70s, old enemies come face to face once again.... Beaten some 30 years ago, the far rightists now stand ready to rise back and reimpose the traditional ways of faith and order on Western Europe. But strangely, their enemies start getting more and more accurate intelligence about the far right's actions... While one veteran of the Spanish Civil War, on the Francoist side that goes without saying, starts recognizing some old International Brigades veterans among the group of leaders gathered in Rome to determine the Black Order's next target. Will you manage to rid the Order of its spies and help Europe goes back to the ways of its ancestors ? Or will you let communism and decadence win and spread throughout Europe ?

Whan that Aprill (probably should have saved this theme for the spring? ...Meh) with his shoures soote
The droghte of March hath perced to the roote
And bathed every veyne in swich licour
Of which vertu engendred is the flour
Whan Zephirus eek with his sweete breeth
Inspired hath in every holt and heeth
The tendre croppes and the yonge sonne
Hath in the ram his half cours yronne
And smale foweles maken melodye
That slepen al the nyght with open ye
(So priketh hem nature in hir corages)
Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages
And palmeres for to seken straunge strondes
To ferne halwes, kowthe in sondry londes;
And specially from every shires ende
Of Engelond to Caunterbury they wende,
The hooly blisful martir for to seke
That hem hath hoplen whan that they were seeke
Bifil that in that seson on a day
In Southwerk at the Tabard as I lay
Redy to wenden on my pilgrymage
To Caunterury with ful devout corage.
At nyght was come into that hostelrye
Wel ten and seven in a compaignye
Of sondry folk, by aventure yfalle
In felaweship, and pilgrimes were they… most
That toward Caunterbury wolden ryde.
The chambres and the stables weren wyde
And wel we weren esed atte beste.
And shortly, whan the sonne was to reste,
So hadde I spoken with hem everichon
That I was of hir felaweshipe anon,
And made forward erly for to ryse,
To take oure wey ther as I yow devyse.

The events of that night, however, indicated that it would be a rather more... bloody... pilgrimage than most of us had expected...




 
Werewolf CCXXX: Dracula

It is a New Year in London, during the turn of the century in Victorian Britain. Optimism is everywhere, and in London coffeehouses, there is talk and celebration regarding the upcoming century, which promises Britain's continued dominance across the world at large.

However, in London, not all is well. The Russian cargo ship Demeter ran aground recently, and ever since the crash, there have been disappearances and murders throughout London. Some murmur Jack the Ripper might have returned, though, increasingly, you and several like-minded individuals have come to the conclusion that something even more sinister than that is occurring.

You all agree to band together and figure out what is happening in London, and just how truly evil it is, before it is too late. However, it seems even now, evil has spread its tendrils to you and your new compatriots, as some among you have already been tainted by the evil overtaking London.
