Your Cast of Characters...
Geralt of Rivia – The Witcher
The Butcher of Blaviken…just don’t call him that to his face. It’s still a touchy subject!
Each cycle from day 1, Geralt will get to choose from one melee combat OR one use of his magic.
1. Melee Combat: Geralt’s trusty sword is permanently strapped to his back and at the ready. When called upon, it has the devastating power to strike down any target Geralt chooses, regardless of protections in place or strength of opponent.
There is one catch though…because of the devastating use Geralt puts it to in battle, his sword has only 4 uses in the game. Should Geralt wear down his blade to bluntness, he must rely on his magic for the rest of the game. Or…maybe pick up a weapon repair kit somewhere along the way.
OR
2. Magic: Use of his limited but effective magical powers – Quen and Igni.
Each power has a ‘cooldown period’, where Geralt cannot choose it again for a prescribed time. However, Geralt will have access to one power every cycle in this game, munch to munch, should he choose magic over swords for the cycle.
Quen: This is a ward (self-protect spell) which Geralt can use when threatened.
Cooldown period: 36 hours.
Igni: This is a stream of fire which shoots from the Witcher’s palms. Geralt’s Igni is arguably his strongest magical power, and after many years it is now honed to the point of incinerating his target, like, crispy fried dead. That is unless a protection and/or formidable opponent is in play.
Cooldown period: 24 hours.
Geralt can choose to play a combat-heavy game, or an all magic game, or mix it up if he chooses. The choice is down to the player.
Yennefer of Vengerberg - Seer
Yennefer came into this world unwanted and had to fight hard to find her place in it. Through her many decades, she has served at court of some truly powerful rulers and has learned to play the political game accordingly. Now one of the world’s most powerful Mages, she will get a peek each night from n1.
Princess Ciri
In the most emotional moment of the princess’ young life, Ciri was tasked to “Find Geralt of Rivia”. This is what she will attempt once each night. If she finds The Witcher, Ciri will be masoned with Yennefer. However if Ciri finds The Black Knight before Geralt, her search is off and the young princess must flee from the Nilfgaardians and spend the rest of the game blending as an NRV.
Jaskier - Bard
A talented and famous bard, Jaskier spends his days now as Geralt’s musical biographer. A good bard never lets the truth overcome a great story and Jaskier is known to take artistic license with his tales. This brings he and Geralt fortunes through their journeys and quests.
Triss Merigold- Healer
The mage can heal one of the Striga's bites each day by use of her magical powers.
King Foltest
The solemn but mighty King can summon the power of his army to protect a target. Note this is flavour, there’s no actual army in the game, the dude’s your Bodyguard!
Dara
Apprentice for the first dead roled villager. However, it will be too late in life and mortally dangerous for Dara to undergo the Trial of the Grasses in order to become a Witcher. Should Geralt of Rivia become our first fallen hero, Dara will find his own blade to carry out daily justice. It won't be as strong as The Witcher's blade, but it's something.
NRVS: The rest of the village have been referred to as 'village NRV' in their PMs. This term is a mistake, a redundancy and on reflection is not meant to cause confusion or allude to there being 'wolf NRVs' in the game. It should have been just 'NRV' in the PM.
1. Nilfgaardians:
Fringilla Vigo
The master Mage is largely responsible for the current devastation and might of Nilfgaard’s imperial reach. Her magic and manipulation have been a game-changer for them in their uprising. Here, Fringilla can choose a target each night and if they have a power, it will be temporarily blocked.
The Black Knight (Cahir)
A formidable opponent in battle. He also has the ability to end Ciri's search for Geralt.
The Doppler
A supernatural creature hired by the Nilfgaardians, he can mimic the physical form of anyone he chooses. Here, The Doppler will appear as NRV on first peek.
Wiping out the Nilfgaardians will randomly award one prize to a player from each remaining team.
2. Monsters
Striga
A formidable opponent. Each night the haunting Striga chooses 2 targets to attack, their fates to be revealed at 9pm in a potentially fatal outcome. Triss Merigold will have a chance to heal 1 target by 9pm.
If the Striga is killed, Team Monsters' kill attempts will switch to the standard 10am munch format.
Kikimora
Another formidable opponent. Can be lynched on first attempt, but any other kill attempts will take 2 to eliminate such a foe. That is unless attacked by the Witcher with his sword.
Wiping out the Monsters will randomly award one prize to a player from each remaining team.
Game Rules:
1. When you die, you are out of the game. Please don’t continue to post or thank posts. Dead people can’t talk! We will grant you deadroom access asap.
2. We have 20 players so we encourage you all to get as involved as you can and contribute to the game. Try to get a lynch vote in as a minimum each day. 2 missed lynch votes may mean a player could be modkilled or replaced by a sub, depending on mod discretion. We will judge each missed vote on a case by case basis. Also, we require you to make a minimum of 5 posts per day, munch to munch.
3. No cheating. This is game that requires honesty and relies heavily on the players having integrity. So, as well as any other cheating, no PMing other players and no chatting about the game anywhere off thread while the game is going on. We have provided a deadroom and this is the ONLY safe place where any discussions may take place about this game while it is live. See rule 5 on who to ask for access.
4. All players will receive PMs throughout the game, please no copying and pasting of PMs that we send you, nor will you be allowed copy and paste anything from any backroom you may have. If you want to discuss the content of a PM with the village, please discuss it with the Mods first before discussing any PMs on thread.
5. All questions can be sent directly to the WerewolfGM if you are unsure about anything. Mods for this game are Stu Redman, sKeith and Persepoly, but to be sure of one of us seeing your query use the WerewolfGM account and we will try to answer you as soon as we can. Please be patient.
6. Policy on Abuse: Boards has a no-abuse rule in place that is in effect in this forum as well. By all means, call people on dodgy behavior in the game, point out if they are being silly or behaving strangely, be aggressive in your approach; but do not abuse another player or 'get personal' with them. If you feel another player has stepped over a line, the first step is to ask them to stop; if they do not, please PM a forum mod (Sullivlo/Baggly/quickbeam) or use the report button on the post in question. Forum mods will investigate and action any issues at an appropriate time, keeping the game mods informed of any actions as needed. Generally speaking - Don't be a dick, play in good nature, and if you hate something don't you do it too.
7. This is an anon game. Every player will have a WW alias to play under and this will be PMed to you along with any in-game role you have been given. You must post using this anon account.
8. NO EDITING POSTS. You won’t be able to in your anon account, but if you slip and post in your regular Boards account, don’t delete or edit it. Log back into your anon account, quote the slipped post(s) and announce to the thread that you slipped and that the posts should be attributed to your given anon account, this should be done as soon as possible after the slip. Failure to do so within a timely manner, or repeated slips may be punished.
9. No sharing your backroom accounts or passwords with anyone. All actions must be done by you and only you.
10. Votes will be published after we announce the lynch result, as soon as we can be sure the votes are correct! Please be patient as to publish incorrect data would be worse than any delay.
11. Have fun guys, we encourage you to have fun poking, memes, gifs, videos and such and such.
12. In the event of a tied lynch vote, the last vote cast between the two tied players will decide the lynch. Eg: Paul WW and Stanley WW get 4 votes each but Stanley WW received the last vote, then Stanley WW will be lynched.
13. Game mods reserve the right to modkill a player at any point if it's clear that a player has deliberately threatened the integrity and/or mechanics of the game. By this last resort though, communication will have been made with the player to seek clarification/cessation on their actions.
Win Conditions
Village: Eliminate all wolves on both teams.
Wolves: Eliminate your rival wolf team, and gain parity with the village.
Conventional munch will take place at 10am and lynch at 9pm. There will be a Boards lynch thread to vote in rather than a Google lynch form.
