Tol-in-Gaurhoth CIII: Big Magic in Middle Earth
For centuries, various magical entities have vied for control of the lands. Your current encampment of magicky types has recently discovered that one of you has been possessed by the spirit of Saruman and that he has turned some of you to his ways. He and his cohorts wish to use their arcane gifts to destroy the remainder of your group and then travel from place to place to use their powers for further destruction. You must stop them before they annihilate your group and move on to harm others.
~~~~~~~~ Saruman and sorcerers: Wolves. Number will be determined by size of village. Saruman has a one-shot power which allows him to add a new member to his order. He must do this when he is the only sorcerer remaining, and doing so must not cause him to automatically win the game. This person will join him at the beginning of the following phase of game play (e.g. if he selects a person during the Night, they will join him the next Dawn, whereas if he chooses them during the Day, they will join him at Dusk). Aura Reader: Seer. Scries a person in their sleep to see if their mind has been taken by Saruman. May choose one person each Night and learn of their identity. Protector Wizard: Ranger. Chooses one person each Night and puts an anti-magic field on them. If that person is the sorcerers’ intended target, they are not killed. May protect self only once per game, and may not protect the same person twice in a row. Pact Mage: Hunter. Bonds his arcane energy to that of another, so that if he is harmed by that person, they will also suffer. Makes one selection per phase; that selection remains until the end of that phase or until they make another selection, whichever is later. If the pact mage is killed, their target is killed if they are a sorcerer or if they voted for the pact mage the Day he was murdered. Two innocent lovers. Neither knows the other’s identity, and may make one guess per phase as to the identity of their lover. The sorcerers get no kill on the Night following the lovers’ discovery of each other (or the Night of if they discover each other at Night). Both will display as ordinary unless killed post-reunion. *Note: I will only include the lovers if there are more than 12 people in the game. Undetermined number of (extra)ordinary arcanists. ~~~~~~~~ Deadline is negotiable, but will likely be 5:00 pm Central or later. In the event of a tie, no one will be lynched. Casting: Shasta Kath Dun Nerwen Cop McCobbler Lottie Green Echo Holbytlass Boro Legate Lommy Steve

I'll sign up.
If one lover dies before the lovers find each other, will the other lover know, or will they just continually send in fruitless guesses for the rest of the game?

I will sign up. Summer holidays should mean time to be my usual verbose self. 5:00pm CST is what over on this side of the pond? Midnight?

Excellent question, love. I'll let the bereaved know of their lover's fate. It seems only fair.

A game of Werewolf, hurrah! I love you Sally.
Please sign me up with a question mark. I'll need to check on some things before I can say firmly whether I'll be able to play, but I'd hate to miss this one, so I'll be playing if it's at all possible. |

I will sign up.
It seems only Werewolf is enough to pull me back here from the dark shifty planes of the Internet at large.

So it looks like this game is going to start later than I expected. I'm going to have to drop out.

Excellent, Lottie and Greenie! I'm sorry it's taken so long, Steve, but hopefully another time, yes?
All right, people, let's get to twisting some arms.

I'm ridiculously pleased that this game is going to be running fairly soon. I must have missed Werewolf very badly.

Hurrah for the return of Steve! ^_^
I'll send out roles first thing in the morning. The game will begin tomorrow at 5:00pm Central with, because I can, a Day phase. Morsul, if you have to drop out, I understand. Please let me know tonight so I can send out roles tomorrow before I scamper to work.

I'll drop out. I won't hold everyone up. Can I be the victim in the intro?
