Werewolf
I've never hosted a game on ATRL & I'm not 100% sure on the rules regarding non-music games. I've had a look through previous non-music games and it seems something similar to this game has been done previously before in 2011,
here. Mods, if there is a problem with this game, just close this thread and forget about it! For anyone interested in playing Werewolf, have a browse through the 'A Nightmare on ATRL' games. They are very similar. I've always known this game as 'Werewolf' when I've played on other forums.
Premise
15 ATRLers have received a mysterious invitation to an exclusive Album Launch. Excitedly, they RSVP for what they think will be an exciting weekend full of music, celebrities and booze. However, when they arrive at their destination - a remote, empty mansion, they begin to realise that they have been lured into grave danger.
Two competing factions, the
Witches and
Cannibals are behind the invitations and will attempt to kill the remaining ATRLers, known as the
Innocents. The Witches are desperate to kill the innocents to please an evil Demon that they accidentally summoned when trying to bless their fave with chart success. The Cannibals are equally desperate to make the kills because, well, they're hungry. Meanwhile, a lone ATRLer gifted with special powers is determined to simply make it to the end, whether or not the Innocents or Evil prevails. This self-preserving member is known simple as
The Gifted.
It is up to the innocents to band together, identify the evil among them and eradicate the evil before they themselves are sacrificed to an evil demon or devoured by their peers. Likewise, the Witches & Cannibals must try to Eliminate both the Innocents and the opposing evil team.
How it Works
Each participating member will be given a role
at random. The role will inform the member of their team (ie. Innocent, Witches, Cannibals or The Gifted One) and any special powers that they hold. Each day, participants will vote to Execute one other participant. Executions will take place each day. Due to the fact that I am a shift worker some days will be shorter/longer than usual. I apologise for this but rest assured that there will be ample time to complete any actions each day - in most cases days will run for longer.
Some players will be given
powers. Powers include:
Dreaming: One member on each team will have the ability to
Dream. Dreamers are valuable because each night they will have a dream (in the form of a PM) giving them a strong hint as to the affiliation of another participant of their choosing.
Shielding: Shielders can bless other participants with a 100% Shield. Meaning that the blessed Participant will be immune for that night. The Shielder can choose to Shield themselves, but not on successive nights.
Converting: Conversions are rare occurrences but have the possibility to happen. A participant with the ability to Convert another player to their team will have to complete a task before their power is strong enough to persuade another player to join their team.
Killing: Each evil team has the ability to Kill another player each night. In addition to this, among the Innocents will be a vigilante who also has the ability to kill another player.
Other minor powers will be available to certain players and will be revealed to members on their Role Sheet. These powers will come to light as they are used throughout the game.
Other Information::
Of the 15 Participants
8 will be Innocents and they will receive NO information on who the other innocents are.
3 will be Witches who will know the members of their own team.
3 will be Cannibals who also know the other members of their team.
The Gifted One will work alone to their own end and can choose to assist or hinder any team they choose - their only Victory condition is to make it to the end.
Victory can be shared between a team & The Gifted One. Otherwise, only one
team will win.
Progression of Game:
Each 'Day' is divided into two parts... known as
Day &
Night! Simple enough.
During the
DAY Phase each member is required to VOTE on who to Execute that night. Members can choose to 'Vote: No Execution'. An Execution Scene will be posted at the END of each Day Phase.
After the Execution Scene is posted,
Night will commence. This is where any actions from people's powers will be Action-ed ie. Kills, Dreams etc. Nightscene will be posted shortly after the Execution Scene. Usually ~1hour.
Day Scene will usually run for close to 24hours or longer - during this time Participants are to mail any actions to me, the MC. If, for example, your Murder Target has been executed at the Execution Scene - you can quickly PM me with a change of target. I'm sorry that I cannot provide set times each day, some people may find themselves disadvantaged throughout the game. But it's luck of the draw.
F.A.Q:

To play, pick a number between 1-15. Each number correlates to a ROLE at RANDOM. Roles will be mailed out once all 15 Slots are filled over the next few days. The game will require
DAILY participation. Not much, just a bit. Users who do not post daily will receive three votes against them for that evenings Execution.
