Welcome to yet another game of werewolf. After a considerable hiatus as WW GM, I am back to present you with...
The year is 1955. The last decade saw the rise of the so-called Yellow Empire, led by Emperor Basan Damdu, the Usurper, who quickly acquired nuclear capabilities, triggering a cold war with most of the world. The MI5 has infiltrated the Yellow Empire leadership, and an agent managed to transmit news about an impending Yellow attack. The major powers are skeptic as to the validity of this information, noting that all previous assessments clearly point out that the Yellow Empire, while boasting a large and modern military, does not have the resources to wage war on the world, and Basan Damdu would have to be mad to risk nuclear annihilation by doing so.
Werewolf is a game of paranoia, deception and betrayal. Hidden amongst the innocent, ignorant villagers are small Packs of Werewolves looking to eat them. The villagers outnumber the Werewolves, but they don't know who to trust. Meanwhile, the Werewolves know their fellow Pack members and can work together to even the odds. The Werewolves want to kill enough villagers so that they can reach parity and overthrow the village openly; the villagers want to destroy the Werewolf menace by uncovering their secret identities.
If that wasn't a dire enough situation for the village, even amongst the villagers there are Cultists looking to help their Werewolf masters and people Cursed to become Werewolves if attacked. Fortunately the village has the aid of the Seers and Priests, who can find the true allegiance of the villagers, and of the Doctors and Guardian Angels, who might be able to protect them. These players must hide their identity just as much as the Werewolves must, as they are the greatest threat to the forces of evil and will surely be killed if revealed.
It may seem like a simple Villager is powerless in this clash of good and evil, but they are not. Every day the village gets to choose one person to lynch, as punishment for the nightly murder. The village must vote to choose the person they think most likely to be responsible. With their vote, the Villager can reveal much about the motives of others. But they must be cunning, or more than a little lucky, if they are to survive.
Standard Big Rules
All roles will be handed out after the last person signs up, with all players receiving a PM containing their role and (known) traits. The game will then proceed to a night deadline.
The game is divided into two periods - night and day. For practical reasons these two periods are run concurrently, from one update till the next. Each update is 24 hours apart.
Each day, all players vote to lynch one of the players - the person they think is most likely to be a Werewolf or other baddie. Each night, the Werewolves decide who to kill. In each 24 hour period, the village will lynch, and the Werewolves will hunt. The villagers can try to lynch multiple people by creating a glorious, Lemeard-approved tie, and the Werewolves can also decide not to hunt anyone at all at night. Beware of Crovaxian slips as well!
There are also other things that go bump in the night. The order these will be resolved in is as follows:
0. Lynch (including leader and brutal orders)
1. Encryption expert
2. Sorceror
3. Seer
4. Priest
5. Cultist
6. Doctor
7. Guardian Angel
8. Hunter
9. Werewolf
10. Witness
Werewolves and cultists will be divided into one or more Packs, with one Pack hunting each night. The order the Packs hunt in will be known only to them.
The Yellow-colored roles win if they eliminate all rival Packs and, along with the Sorceror and his apprentices, manage to reach parity with the rest of the village.
The Green-colored roles win by eliminating all packs, including their cultists.
The Grey-colored role (Apprentice) shares conditions with the Green-colored roles unless they are claimed by a Sorceror.
The Roles
Except for Villager and Werewolf, all other Roles MAY, not will, be in the game
MI5 Agent (Seer): May scan one person per night to see if they are a Yellow (Werewolf) or a Potential Recruit (unclaimed Apprentice). Any other role will appear as a regular Resistance Fighter (Villager) to the MI5 Agent (Seer).
Signal Intel Officer (Priest): May scan one person each night to see if they are a Yellow Spy (Sorcerer), a Potential Recruit (unclaimed Apprentice) or a Yellow Recon Agent (Cultist). Any other role will appear as a regular Resistance Fighter (Villager) to the Signal Intel Officer.
Army Sergeant (Guardian Angel): May choose to protect one person against nightly attacks every night, but can't choose to protect the same person two nights in a row and can never protect themselves. After two successful protections, the role is lost and the Guardian Angel becomes a villager.
Resistance Fighter (Villager): Has no special abilities outside of any traits and their own abilities as a player.
Yellow Officer (Werewolf): Allocated to a specific Pack, and cannot change allegiance. The Pack wins if, having eliminated all other Packs, its members, the Sorceror, and his apprentices, reach parity with the rest of the Village. Each Night, one Pack will choose a victim to hunt. The order in which Packs hunt will be given to them in private.
Yellow Recon Agent (Cultist): Works with a Werewolf pack, and wins with the pack. Always start attached and knows the identity of all Werewolves of the pack at game start. Can scan a player to get that player's trait, including any hidden traits, on the night his pack does not hunt. Cultists belonging to a pack that has lost all wolves can still win by outnumbering the remaining players, provided there are no wolves still alive in the game.
Yellow Spy Master (Sorceror): Works with the Werewolves, and wins if the Werewolves win, regardless of the pack that wins. May scan one person each night to see if they are a Seer, a Priest, an Apprentice or a Cultist. Any other role will appear as a regular Villager to the Sorcerer. Apprentices claimed by the Sorceror will share the same victory conditions as their master.
Potential Recruits (Apprentices): They have the potential to learn useful abilities if taken under the wing of an Intel Agent. If unclaimed and scanned by a Seer, Priest or Sorceror, that scanner becomes their Master. If an Apprentice has a Master and that Master dies, they will assume role of their Master, preserving their traits in the process. An unclaimed Apprentice does not know that he is one until he is scanned and claimed. There might be claimed Apprentices at game start in which case these claimed Apprentices will know their role. Will always know their master if claimed. Once they are claimed, they lose their Apprentice Role.
The Traits
The traits (extra abilities) MAY be had in addition to any of the above roles (except for "Cursed", see below).
Padre (Padre): Chooses a person each night, if that person is hunted and killed by a wolf or a hunter, the name of one of the perpetrators will be given to the padre
Medic (Doctor): May choose to protect one person against Werewolf attacks every night. May not protect the same person twice in consecutive nights. A person saved by the doctor is placed in coma for the next day and may not vote or communicate in any way with the other players. The doctor's identity will not be made public nor will it be divulged to the target of the order.
Sniper (Hunter): The Hunter can send a one time nightly order to kill someone. This order will ignore GA, doctor and blessed protection, and thus it will always kill their target. A Hunter's identity will not be revealed in the update.
Head of Security (Leader): May select one person who was not chosen to be lynched, and have them lynched in place of one person who was a lynch target. The Leader's charisma can only do so much, and so they can only redirect the lynch to someone with at least 50% of the original lynch target's votes. There will never be more than one Leader at any given time. A Leader's identity is always revealed in the update upon a successful leader order, and the leader will lose the trait after using it, passing it to the next player in the chain of command.
Lower ranking Security Officer (Xth in Command): Will become the Leader if the current Leader ability is used up and there is no living player who is higher on the chain of command.
Hero (Brutal): If lynched, has the power to immediately kill one person before being subdued.
Lucky (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 person will be unaware he is Blessed, in which case they will not know if it has been used up. Blessed takes precedence over other forms of protection. If a Blessed player is hunted by the wolves, the protection will trigger, and all still Blessed players will lose their protection until a Cursed player is hunted and turned.
Opportunist (Cursed): If a Cursed person is succesfully attacked by the Werewolves, they lose their existing role and instead become a Werewolf of the pack that hunted them. It will be revealed as a "no kill during the night". The Cursed will be unaware he is Cursed until successfully attacked by a Werewolf. Seers, Priests, Wolves and Sorcerors cannot be cursed at game start. In particular, a claimed Apprentice that is Cursed and turns into a Werewolf loses his apprenticehood, but this is not revealed to their Master. Traits will be preserved. When a cursed player is turned, nullified unused blessed traits will be restored.
Paranoid (Spiritually Attuned): A Spiritually Attuned person has a 100% chance to sense when someone is scanning them. They will have a 50% chance to learn the scanner role. If they succeed at identifying the scanner role, they have a 50% chance to learn the identity of the actual person.
Encryption Master : May choose a target each night, that night all scans against this target will be blocked. Scanners will be notified of this fact, Encryption master will also be notified of scans being blocked, but not about the identity or the role of the scanner. Once a player has been successfully encrypted, further encryption orders by the same player on him will not have any effect.
