    THE SETTING


    AVery-Werewolf-Christmas.png


    You have always had an image in your mind of a fairytale Christmas. Snow on the ground, crisp night air, groups of friends half-hidden in the steam rising from mugs of hot mulled wine, roast chestnuts, candlelight, and the kind of Christmas decorations we used to have before we discovered plastic and fluorescent green paint.

    That is what Lapland promised you.

    The travel agency and website were a bit shady. Not to mention the price. It seemed outrageously expensive! Things of quality usually are, you told yourself, but not many people had even heard of this particular village. Your friends refused to join you and all said they had a bad feeling about it, but that didn't stop you.

    It's all going to be worth it when the sun goes down and you wind your way through one of the Christmas markets. Christmas in Lapland has taste. Soft lighting, decorations made of wood and straw. You know those wintry Victorian scenes you get on the side of old tins? Exactly. That is what you wanted, and by God, you were going to get it, at least once in your life.

    By posting in this thread the magical Christmas word "in", you will book your flight and stay for this holiday season.
     
    Rules, Roles and Traits, oh my!
  • THE RULES

    December 5th. Yesterday, you arrived in the Christmas village. You were so tired from the plane and train ride here that you failed to notice the ghostly aura the village had about it, or the fact that there didn't seem to be any shops or facilities: Only accomodations for tourists like yourself, or people who are pretending to be. You did not think of that as you left the organizers and went to bed yesterday, but today waking up cold and alone in a small bedroom, it hit you that something here was really wrong. You decide to walk to the village center to see if you can find anyone else. Luckily, you do. There are exactly 34 other people in this village. And thus, it begins.

    Each person will have a role, which will be kept secret. Most will be plain, ordinary tourists, but some amongst them will be someting darker. The tourists will win by surviving until Christmas day, or by finding and eliminating the servants of the darker powers. Meanwhile the demons win by reaching (1:1) parity with the tourists. The demons may be split into packs who worship different dark Gods, in which case only one may remain - and the game is not won until all others are eliminated.


    The game is split into two sections - Night and Day. For practical reasons, these take place at the same time, except for the first deadline, which only represents a night.


    During the day, the village gathers and decides who to lynch, the person they think is most likely to be a baddie. During the night, the demons decide who to kill, and special goodies and baddies will all send their orders to be executed.


    Day actions are handled in the following order:
    1-Votes
    2-PM Votes
    3-Leaders
    4-Brutals
    5-Guild Formation

    Nightly orders are handled in the following manner:
    0-Jester
    1-Distiller
    2-Infiltrator Scan
    3-Sorcerer Scan
    4-Seer Scan
    5-Priest Scan
    6-van Helsing
    7-Assassin/Hunter/Medusa
    8-Robber
    9-Guardian Angel
    10-Doctor
    11-Demon/Cultist
    (If multiple hunt orders are sent from the same pack, the last one submitted is the one that counts unless otherwise specified by the sender. No matter how many werewolves or werewolf packs there are, only one attack takes place during the night, or none, if a pack forgets to send in an order.)

    12-Padre
    13-Spy

    During the day, everyone(including the plotters) will meet together to discuss and decide who to lynch. When a player has decided whom to vote for, they type vote Player X in bold font and preferabbly at least size 4, this to ensure that your GM notices the vote. It is not allowed to edit a vote(though you can edit vote posts). If a player decide to change his vote, he types unvote Player X - vote Player Y. The "unvote" is there to help me count the votes. I will however count changed votes even without the "unvote", only somewhat slower and with a bigger risk of getting it wrong so please help the GM and use "unvote" when you change your votes.


    Abstaining from voting without declaring absence a maximum of 3 times will result in being auto-lynched or subbed out, if a substitute player can be found.


    New players may still join after the game has started by taking over zombie spots. Once all zombie spots are gone, no new playes may join except if substituting for a player who has missed 3 votes.


    Spirits and Ghosts ("dead" players) may haunt, taunt and flaunt. They may not reveal any secret/inside information nor may they do voting records except for the current day. Anyone caught doing it risk being banned from later Werewolf games. When making a ghost/spectator comment, please use a non-white colour (and keep off the GM colours, green and red - you may use either, just not both in the same post).


    Alliances between players which aren't based on your roles in the game are frowned upon. These alliances which continue from one game to another undermine the whole idea of the game.


    Forged Private Messages (PMs) are allowed. Quoting or forging PMs from the GM is not allowed.
    Screenshots of PMs from players or the GM are not allowed and anyone caught doing it will be autolynched.

    No discussion of PM numbers is allowed. When posting PMs in the thread, players are encourage to remove the numbers.


    THE ROLES

    Villager: Has no special abilities.

    Werewolf(demon): Assassinates someone each nights. More specific killing rules, aka the hunting pattern, will be given to the plotters but will not be public knowledge.

    Seer(Elf): May scan one person per night. He will be told if that person is a demon or unclaimed Apprentice (100% success). Any other role will appear as a regular villager to the elf.

    Priest(Fairy): May scan one person per night. She will be told if that person is an Apprentice or a cultist (100% success). Any other role will appear as a regular villager to the fairy.

    Sorcerer(Grim reaper): Works with the demons, and wins if the demons win. May scan one person per night. He will be told if that person is an elf, a fairy, an Apprentice or a cultist (100% success). Any other role will appear as a regular villager to the Grim reaper.

    Apprentice: Only becomes active if his master is killed. A scanner can have more than one Apprentice but in case of the scanner's death only the first Apprentice will become active. Apprentices works just like their former master. If an Apprentice is in the game, the first scanner who finds him (and survives the night) will make him his Apprentice. An unclaimed Apprentice will not be told that he is one until he is scanned. There might be claimed Apprentices at game start in which case these claimed Apprentices will know their role. Infiltrator scans can not detect Apprentices.


    Guardian Angel(Nymph): May protect one person against a demon attack, but can't choose to protect the same person two nights in a row and can never protect themselves.

    Doctor(Pixie): May protect one person each night but can't choose to protect the same person two nights in a row. In case of an attack, the Pixie has a 50% chance of saving that person. The person saved will be unable to send in any votes or orders for the next day/night cycle but may also not be attacked directly while recovering. If the pixie is attacked, however, all patients are also attacked. If a patient wakes up again, he/she will remember one of the attackers. The patient does not learn the identity of the pixie. For the day in which they are recovering, the patient must follow Ghost Rules.

    Cultist: Works with the demons, and wins if the demons win. Cultists may start attached to a pack, or may start unattached, in which case they may attach with one once they make contact with them(Both Cultist and Wolf must confirm to the GM they want the attaching to happen - at which point the GM will send confirmation that it has happened, if it did). Once attached, can only switch allegiance if all demons of that pack are killed. Cultists must be attached to a pack to count for parity.

    van Helsing(Santa Claus): Has a one-time super-scan ability which reveals all roles and traits, and has the equivalent ability of Hunter.



    THE TRAITS

    Padre(Travel Blogger): May visit one person each night but can't visit the same person two nights in a row, if that person is hunted and killed by a demon or an assassin, the name of one of the perpetrators will be given to the padre.

    Infiltrator: Can scan a player to get one of the player's trait, excluding hidden traits. After scanning needs to wait one night to recharge.

    Spy: Can spy on a player to get a clue to one of the player's traits or the player's role. There will be three equally likely different levels of clues; fluff/no info, obscure and strong hint. A spy can't claim an apprentice. Spying is not detectable by a Spiritually attuned (since it's not a scan).


    One-Eye Open: Can choose on which nights to activate his ability. When activated, he has a 50% chance of surviving any werewolf or hunter attack(if more than one hunt take place, has a 50% chance of surviving each one). When inactivated, will die to an attack BUT will take one of the aggressors with him.


    Assassin: Can send in a nightly order to kill someone, but only once. His name will not be revealed in the update.


    Medusa: Can send in a nightly order to kill someone, but only once. Her name will be revealed in the update.


    Hunter: Has both the One-Eye Open and Assassin abilities, but once he uses up his shot he loses the One-Eye Open ability as well.

    Robber(Doppelganger): Once through the course of the game this envious Person can choose to rob a player of all his traits and demote him to basic goodie/baddie role (villager/cultist). The Envious person will be given all the victim's traits, including hidden ones. The robber's role, however, will not change. In the update it will be made public that a robbery has taken place during the night and who the victim was but not who the Robber was.


    Jester(Goblin): Each night the Goblin may play tricks on a player (the target). If the target is going to perform a nightly action this action will be distorted to something similar (if the target is a wolf then there is a 1 in pack size chance of this happening to the wolf hunt). The Jester can only play trick on a player once through the course of the game. Exactly what a Jester trick will have for effect on each nightly action will be detailed in a separate post. The target will only be informed if the Jester trick actually affects anything.

    Distiller(Mermaid): Each night, the Mermaid may choose to share a bottle of rum, and perhaps a bit more, with a player (the target). The Distiller and the target are unable to perform any other action during the night. The target will only learn of the visit if he was stopped from performing a nightly activity. The target will not learn the Distiller's identity (because of the memory loss).

    Leader: May declare that the victim/all victims of a lynching will not be lynched, and pick one other character to be lynched instead. However the Negotiator's charisma can only do so much so he can only redirect the lynch to someone with at least 1/2 of the votes of the lynchee, and he can not save himself. If the lynched character is not a baddie this ability is used up. There will be a maximum of one leader in the game, and no "X in command"s. ...Forgot to actually do someting with this


    Brutal: If lynched or brutalized, has the power to immediately kill one person before being subdued.


    Cursed: If a Cursed person is targeted by the Demons, they become one themselves. It will be revealed as a "no kill during the night". The cursed person will be unaware he is that until attacked by a demon. Elves and fairies can not be cursed at game start. A cursed apprentice that turns into a demon loses her apprenticehood.

    Blessed: A Blessed person will survive a werewolf attack, but only once (the next attack will be fatal as usual). Will be revealed as a "no kill during the night". The Blessed might be unaware he is blessed. If a Blessed and Cursed player is hunted, the Blessed trait has priority.

    Spiritually Attuned: A SA person has a 100% chance to sense when someone is scanning them. They will have a 50% chance to learn what type of scan is used against them and if they do a 25% chance to learn of the actual scanning player's name.

    Strongly Spiritually Attuned(Mystic): When being scanned, one of 3 things will happen: 50% chance of learning only that they are being scanned, 25% chance of learning the role of the person scanning them, and a 25% chance of learning the actual scanning player's name as well as their role.


    Plotter: May use PM to the GM for voting in which case the plotter's vote will not be revealed until the final vote count.

    Alderman: Once activated (by PM to the GM) his vote is worth two votes for the duration of the game.

    Seerish Powers*: This player have some talent in seeing the future. Not enough to become a seer but enough to give him one single fully* functioning seer scan during the span of the game.

    Priestly Powers*: This player have some divine talent. Not enough to become a priest but enough to give him one single fully* functioning priest scan during the span of the game.

    Sorcerous Powers*: This player have some dark magic talent. Not enough to become a sorcerer but enough to give him one single fully* functioning sorcerer scan during the span of the game.

    Infiltrating Powers*: This player have some infiltrating talent. Not enough to become a infiltrator but enough to give him one single fully* functioning infiltrator scan during the span of the game.

    Healing Powers: This player has some healing talent. Not enough to become a doctor but enough to give him one single fully functioning doc protection during the span of the game.

    Angelic Powers: This player has some protecting talent. Not enough to become a Guardian Angel but enough to give him one single fully functioning Guardian Angel protection during the span of the game.

    Spying Powers: This player has some spying talent. Not enough to become a Spy but enough to give him one single fully functioning Spy action during the span of the game.

    Damsel in Distress: If this player is saved from lynch by a leader, a plotter or a vote snipe (within five minutes of the deadline) or from hunt by a protector or jester then the saviour will be the Damsel's Knight in Shining Armor. The Damsel and the Knight will get eachother's names and the Knight will get a random extra trait. A Damsel can only have one Knight but if her Knight dies she can again be saved and a new Knight will then emerge. A Damsel may or may not start the game with a Knight already at her side.

    Knight in Shining Armor: A Knight in Shining Armor will kill the Robber if the Robber tries to attack the Knight or his Damsel.

    Lovers: They are given each others' name at the start and told they are lovers. They do not, however, know each other's roles or traits, but do know they are in love. If a lover dies, the other will die of broken heart alongside him. If both lovers survive the game however, both will win, presuming at least one is on the winning side.

    Rivals: Two players may start as rivals, in which case neither of them can win as long as the other remains alive. If both are still alive at game end, they both lose. This happens even if the game reaches Christmas day.

    Innkeeper Upon declaring his intention to the GM to use this trait, all votes on the holder will not count, and the holder's vote will not count either. After this trait is used, it is lost.

    Cloak of Invisibility: A player possesing a cloak of invisibilty may once during the cause of the game become invisible, i.e. scans of him that night will return "nobody at home", wolf attacks will fail as if the player was GA protected, hunter/assasin attacks will miss and the player will even dodge the lynch mob making the runner up lynched instead of him etc. However wearing the cloak will also block any other actions of the wearer for that day/night cycle such as voting, scans, attacks and even counting for parity etc.

    Pathological Liar: Can each day claim publically in the thread claim a role or trait (excluding hidden roles/traits - cursed, blessed, apprentice) from this post. Must then PM the GM quoting the post and claiming the use of the role/trait for the upcoming day/night cycle. Can only claim the same role/trait once for the cause of the game. For the Liar the following are considered the same role/trait: Seer/Seerish powers, Priest/Priestly powers, Infiltrator/Infiltrating powers, Sorcerer/Sorcerous powers, Spy/Spying powers, Doctor/Healing powers, GA/Angelic powers, Hunter/Assassin/van Helsing/Zombie hunter. A Liar claiming wolf will scan as a wolf but will not hunt. A Liar can't claim Guild member and if claiming Knight in Shining Armor will only protect himself from Robber unless he also specifies a valid Damsel in Distress. If a Liar claims Zombie he will be played by the GM that day/night using a random zombie rule set.

    Ghost Whisperer: May once during the game ask to "speak" with the ghost of the player(s) that will get killed the upcoming night. The Ghost Whisperer will then get to know the ghost's intentions for that night and what that would have resulted in (only for scans) but also every action that was planned against him (but not specifically by whom, only by what). The Ghost Whisperer needs only tell which night he wants to use his ability, not on which player.

    Oracle: Has a one time possibility to speak with the dead. He can ask a single question to any player that is no longer in the game via PM. The player is obligated to respond however is NOT obligated to tell the truth. So asking a demon who his mates are isn't the best idea. (Special rules apply: The question must be asked to the GM stating who the question is aimed at. The GM will then approve the question and forward to the recipient, whose response will then be forwarded on. The GM will not tinker with the response as long as it is a single question, to keep balance. Eg: asking a dead Seer who he scanned is a multiple question that will not be approved, asking the seer if he scanned XY is a valid question)

    Zombie: This is a dummy player played by the GM because not enough players signed up. A Zombie will act according to a predefined rule set. Not all Zombies will use the same rule set. Any living player in the same wolfpack, knight/damsel duo or scanner/apprentice team as a Zombie will be informed about the rule set used for the Zombie. A van Helsing scan will also reveal the zombie rule set. At the "death" of a zombie the name of the rule set will be made public but not the exact content.

    Zombie hunter: Can send one nightly order to kill a Zombie or someone that has missed two votes. After this his ability is used up. The zombie hunter's name will be made public when using his trait.

    Warg: Baddie only. Up to 3 times per game, may choose to fully eat the night's hunt. The target's role and traits will not be publicly revealed in the update, but will be sent privately to the Warg instead.

    Guild member: At any point in the game, 3 players may decide to get together and start a guild by all asking the GM together. They will be assigned a random guild (name+powers) from a preconstructed list.
    Formation of a guild will always come with a price, however, for at least one of the three members . The update for the night will reveal that a guild was created and what its name is, but not what its powers or members are. NOTE: THIS IS NOT A TRAIT THAT YOU PICK. ANYONE MAY BECOME A GUILD MEMBER OVER THE COURSE OF THE GAME.

    * Seer scans can detect but not claim unclaimed apprentices.
    * Priest and sorcerer scans can detect but not claim apprentices, they will not be told whether they are attached or not.

    Roles and traits subject to change until game has started. All suggestions are welcome and appreciated.
    Potentially confusing trait bits(ones that generally differ from game-to-game) highlighted in red.

    A trait or role being in this list does not guarantee it will be in the game.

    THE DEADLINE

    The deadline for votes and other stuff is 21:00 GMT. Any vote showing the timestamp 21:00 will be accepted, one showing 21:01 however will NOT.

    A lynched player is considered dead at the deadline(and must start following ghost rules then) - All other kills take place after the update has been posted.

    Alderman, plotter and villager votes or brutal attacks are not affected since they are day time actions.

    A distorted seer/priest/sorcerer scan will reveal an unclaimed apprentice but can't claim the apprentice. That way a jester distorting the seer's scan to be a sorcerer scan won't give the seer a sorcerer's apprentice with the chaos that would cause.

    ROLE ASSIGNMENT


    All players will get a basic alignment (goodie, pack specific baddie, unaligned baddie) and a number of "pick points" at preliminary role assignment. The player then has almost 24 hours to decide how to spend those pick points from the list of roles and traits.

    1: Plotter, Ghost Whisperer, Oracle, Damsel in Distress, Healing powers, Angelic powers, Lover*
    0: Cultist

    -1: Rival*

    A player not satisfied with his choices can always appeal to Lady Luck and will then get some randomized trait(s), might be better, might be worse and can even be "nothing". Any hidden traits a Lady Luck appealer has will be redristributed among the Lady Luckers.


    A player that doesn't select anything using his pick points will get something the GM would have picked if he was in the player's shoes. A player not wanting to choose may also simply request this GM's choice selection for himself. This selection will be made without taking into account what other people took(to the best of my ability).

    There will be at most one Seer, one Priest and one Sorcerer at game start. Should more than one player pick the same scanning role all but one will start as apprentices to one of them.

    You must claim exactly ONE role.
    * You will receive a lover or rival from among other people who selected the same trait. If a non-even number of people select this, one of them won't actually get it. In the case of rivals, they will be allowed to keep the extra point anyway
    ** An attaced baddie taking rival will not be allowed to hunt his rival through his wolf pack

    Pick Points are out!
  • Every single pick points PM has been sent out! If you did not receive one, please let me know privately..

    Rules clarifications that have come up:

    - If you rob someone with a lover or rival, you will also steal that trait from them. Your name will still not be revealed in the update but their old lover/rival will know who you are. If you rob your own rival you will become rivals with yourself and can no longer win while you are alive. If you rob your own lover you will become your own lover and will die if you die.

    - Picking rival as an attached baddie, not necessarily only as a wolf, will not let your pack hunt your rival

    - If SSA tells you the name of who is scanning you, it will also tell you their role.

    - You can not claim more than ONE instance of the following traits: Brutal, Plotter, Alderman, Damsel in Distress, Zombie hunter, Lover, Rival.

    Role and trait selections are expected by tomorrow (9th of December) at 21:00 GMT. Players who do not select anything will get something that the GM would have selected had he been in their shoes.

    Night 0
  • Day 0:

    As you wake up to face your first day in this "Christmas Village", you are immediately struck by the realization that something here is wrong. There is no sign of any of the organizers anywhere. In fact, the whole village seems to be deserted, save for other fellow tourists. Once people start realizing this, panic sets its roots in the village. The fog and bad weather aren't helping anyone's feelings, either. Many people want to go back, to leave, to find the comfort of their homes again. But how exactly would you find them? No electronic devices work here, there is neither reception nor wifi. As far as the eye can see around the village is only mountains and snow. Anyone who left would probably end up dying of hypothermia or malnourishment.

    At least whoever left you in this village left food also in the general store, as well as much livestock to be slaughtered. You would have to stay here until someone finds you. The problem was: Everyone you knew had assumed you had left and would be disconnected from the world for the Holidays. Even though all your friends and family knew where you were, only once Christmas eve had passed would anyone think to start looking for you.

    Oh well, you think to yourself. There is no reason you couldn't stay here for two weeks. The food was more than enough, and there didn't seem to be any imminent dangers. Still, an uneasy feeling lingered over most of you.

    The first day was spent socializing with the other tourists and getting to know them. Many tales were told, of homes left behind and unique cultures. At the end of the day, trying to keep spirits and hopes up, you decided to hold a "Village President" vote. While some villagers had made an impression on many of you, in the end it was Santa Claus who won the most votes. He wasn't there to celebrate with you, of course, or didn't seem to be. Still, you couldn't help but feel that your village was now a bit more... Blessed.

    Night 0:

    That night, you went to bed feeling a bit better than the night before. Maybe things wouldn't be so bad here. The people seemed friendly enough. You were so tired from the day that you slept soundly, however, not even waking up to the demonic screeches that issued sometime past midnight. The next day, there was an unmistakable fould odor from one of the dorm rooms that had been assigned to you. Investigating, you find the already decaying remains of Eternaly_Lost. His room was full of demonic drawings, voodoo dolls, and other atrocities. It seemed clear that he had not been a good person. His corpse even looked somehow... otherworldly. Yet over his bed, in his own blood was written the warning message: "The Antichrist is coming for you". This had been no act of vigilante justice.

    One thing was for sure, the calmness of the first day would not soon return to this village.

    Apologies for the barebones update, promise the quality (or at least quantity of words) will pick up again soon, but currently really don't have time

    NotOK.12 the villager oracle zombie was lynched.
    After a scan of the village the next day, it appears that Ramius was missing. He had disappeared in the night. However, his remains were never found. Neither his role nor his traits could be determined.

    BohemianJulius is robbed of all his traits and demoted to his basic role.

    NotOK.12 voted according to the "Smart Random" pattern. She would have chosen targets for actions based on the "Perfect Squares, incrementing" pattern. Her personality was "naive".

    Night 3
  • Day 3:

    The day started out strangely. Everything seemed to be happening slowly, as everyone was too apprehensive to say or do much of note. The mood of the village was all over the place from the previous day as well. A demon had been lynched. While not the first demon casualty, this was one the village itself had inflicted. It was proof that fighting back was possible, that the village was still empowered to choose its own destiny. Further adding to the village's confidence was the revelation that there had been a magical elf among them, a watchful, powerful influence to guide the village through these trying times.

    On the other hand, in the night the murders had not stopped like some had hoped. A mystic villager had been murdered, proving that evil was still out there. To add to that, this person had not come alone. Her partner who had brought her here as a couple's get away for the holidays felt so much guilt over what had happened that he had taken his own life rather than face this truth.

    So, no one knew how to feel, and no one talked or did much. But as night drew nearer, you had to face the grim truth: There were still demons among you. You could not simply go back to your beds and await further muders. Something had to be done. Someone had to be caught. Three candidates were proposed for the day, and for all the closing hours of the day the village debated who among them was the most likely to be a servant of Hell. In the end, the debate seemed to be turning against Jeray. More and more people were of the opinion that he had not been entirely human. As people had started to prepare the torches and pitchforks, one man stood out from the crowd. "STOP!" He cried. He warned the village that it had been doing a mistake. He had been sent a divine vision from God, and knew for certain that the one known as TheFatWombat was in fact the servant of evil. He must be destroyed for the village's good.

    Unfortunately, upon stabbing him repeatedly, it became obvious that this FatWombat was in fact nothing but an ordinary human. As ordinary as they come, actually. His blood was red, his body was weak, he did not emit any other-worldly odor when killed. He did not dissolve into something alien. He died a most human life, and everyone went to bed wondering what they had just done.

    Night 3:

    While the village had failed at its task in the day, the servants of evil did not take this as a sign to relent. If anything, they had pressed harder. In the dark of the night, they broke in. They murdered. And then they feasted on the fallen. Nothing of Nikk2k or his possessions was left behind. History would not remember anything about this particular person.

    Another person had also been robbed of everything they owned, but retained their life, at the least, as little value as that may still hold in this place. Dr. Livingstone woke up naked in a completely empty room.

    But all may not have been bad in this night. While the demons were out murdering, and the thieves out stealing, there had been some people hard at work building something. The hammering of nails on woods echoed in the night perhaps harder than the sound of screams. The next day, there was a large wooden board in the middle of the town square, with the inscription: This village is now under the protection of the Friends of Lapland.


    TheFatWombat the cursed villager was lynched.
    Nikk2k was hunted and warged.
    Dr. Livingstone was robbed of his traits and demoted to his most basic role.

    The Friends of Lapland guild was formed by 3 members who have paid a price

    Night 4
  • Day 4:

    After yesterday's foul murder of an innocent by the state, the dicussions of the day were more philosophical. Should there be a death penalty for false accusations which lead to death? The village formed into two wings on this issue, and in a perfect demonstration of the spoiler effect in FPTP, the anti-death penalty vote was also split with some voting third party. Either way, though, it wouldn't have mattered. A simple majority voted for the death of De Chat.

    Yet in spite of all the people who wanted to kill him, it would seem that De Chat was also beloved. When his funeral pyre was set ablaze, two further people jumped into it. Two further innocents...

    Night 4:

    With the village seemingly still flailing about in the dark, the wolves were pin-point accurate. And with the guild of the Friends of Lapland gone, so was the protection it provided. When the wolves came for Alynkio the young elf, there was no one to protect him.


    You lynch De Chat the cursed plotter alderman lover villager
    His lover Jeray the lover ex-robber now ghost whisperer villager with a rival dies of heartbreak
    Hohoho888 the cursed zombie villager with healing powers and zombie hunter dies of heartbreak
    His voting ruleset was "Bandwagon". His actions ruleset was "Most Posts". His personality was "Pleaser".
