Werewolf: Bad Blood

Post » Mon Aug 08, 2011 2:43 pm

Slight Changes have been made from the proposal. Please read.

==Werewolf: Bad Blood==

==Joining==

Anyone can join, just be sure to read the rules and fill out a character sheet.

==Brief Description==

Werewolf is simply a murder mystery game played over this forum. The players attempt to figure out who among them are the werewolves, as the werewolves slowly knock off the innocents one by one. To kill a wolf, a player simply votes for the person they believe is a wolf, and the person with the most votes at the end of each day is killed. Once the wolf team has been eliminated or the wolf team numbers the same as the innocent team, the remaining team wins. We also have a bit of Role Playing going on to make the game more interesting.

==Setting==

It's a modern summer, and you get a very unexpected invitation to visit the farmstead of the famous Lance Chopper family (In this setting Lance Chopper is a famous movie director) to compete for ownership of the farm. Lance Chopper will be hosting the event himself!

==Character Sheet==

If you wish to play, you must complete this. You must be human and you must fill out the entire sheet.

Name: Self explanatory
Age: Make sure you can walk and talk, but please stick to ages 17 or older.
Height: Please post in feet.
Build: Heavy/average/light, you can post specific numbers, but a general idea of what shape your body is will be better.
Hair Color: Brown, blond, salmon, etc
Occupation: What did your character do for a living?
Possessions: Please list 3-5 things your character has with them. Note: These items will not give you any extra powers or abilities.
Personality: How does your character tend to act? At least three different traits are required.
History: Where does your character come from? (Please try to stick to 2 - 8 sentences. Longer if you must, but no less than two sentences.)

==Indepth Rules==

Daily Activities:

* Day Change- Each day will last from 12:00 AM (EST) to 10:00 PM (EST). This represents the daylight hours of the game day. All events that take place during the night are covered in the OP of the next day's topic.

* Voting- Any player can vote at anytime, but only one vote per day will be counted. Voting will end at 10:00 PM (EST) along with the day. Any votes after that will not be counted. If <20% of players vote, no execution will take place. If there is a tie, and >50% both players will be executed, if there is a tie and there is a <50% vote, nobody will die. Please Bold your votes, if you do not, I will not count them.

* Murder- Once a day, the werewolves get to kill someone who is not a werewolf (Including the Archon, should they accidentally choose him. Remember, the wolves do not know who the Archon is, but he knows who they are)

* Conversions- Every 3 days (day 3, 6, 9, etc) the Archon (new role) will pick one person to become a werewolf. NOTE: There is no arch wolf in this game


==Posting Guide==

Character Name

I am talking right now. However, now I am voting or asking a question

OOC: I am talking out of character right now. This is me, Nextmastermind talking, not my character...So, uh, hello...

==Roles==

Evil Team:

Werewolves - Basically the murderers of the group.

Archon - Can not be converted, if killed, the wolves get no more members to their team

Innocent Team

Innocents - The helpless buggers who's sole objective is to try to kill all the wolves to win. The Archon does not have to be murdered/executed for an innocent victory. This will be handled in the aftermath writeup.

Angel: One angel in the game, gets to protect one person a night. This includes protection from conversion as well.

-------------------------------------------------------

Clarifications on the rules:

* PMs aren't allowed between any characters unless otherwise noted. However, werewolves are allowed to PM each other to decide on a victim for that night. One of them is to PM me and tell me who their target is. You guys (wolves) are free to talk during the game hours via PMs, as the next day is only two hours after the current day ends.

* There will be visions, role playing parts, clues, etc. given to players by PM at my (the host's) digression.

* Players will be allowed to search areas for clues to the identity of the Werewolves or Archon.

Ethics Rules

I'm putting in these to moderate the game a bit. They represent problems seen in the past, and those that I hope to avoid in this game.

* 1. Quoted material MUST be accurate. No editing player profiles for your own ends. If you want to lie, paraphrase, but anything in quotes must be accurate
* 2. No editing out votes. If I catch you doing it, you will die a hilarious death. Leave votes that you decide to change, just make a new post saying that you change your vote, leave the old one alone.
* 3. The no PM rule will be enforced.
* 4. If you have a problem with another player (or the host), talk to me. Don't bring it up in the thread.
* 5. If a character goes 3 days without posting in-character, this is considered slothing and the character will be killed in a hilarious manner.

Final Words

I have played two games of werewolf, and I hope you guys will bear with me if I have any difficulty. Mr. E is acting as my consultant, so things should go smoothly. I think there's the potential for a lot of fun.

I know my character is just a host, but I filled out the character sheet for him for me to help identify with him, and so I decided to post the sheet up here incase any of you are interested.

Name: Lance Chopper
Age: 42
Height: 5' 10"
Build: Average build, a little on the slender side.
Hair Color: Brown, but slowly greying
Occupation: Direct's movies. Most famous for his sci-fi and horror works, specificially.
Possessions: ----- (Doesn't need them since host and not a suspect) ----
Personality: He's very to-the-point, but not in a rude way. He knows very well of his fame, and while he has his moments of it getting to his head, he mostly is relatively modest. He's never been fully happy with his movies, though - even the best sellers.
History: He grew up on an old Pennsylvania farmstead with his mom and dad that his family had owned since his great grandpa bought it. He loved his mom and dad, but he was never a big fan or farming. When Lance moved out at 18 to pursue his career, his parents continued to farm, until their death. And that leads into this event - he doesn't want the responsibility of a farm, but he feels selling it is a bit too cliche.

If there is no arch, will the kills be decided democratically or will the senior member of the team have the final say?

The wolves are to discuss it via PM me during the game days and one the wolves is to PM before the day's over so I can add their kill to the writeup for the next game day.
