Welcome one and all…. Except you!

Hello and welcome to Werewolf: Mayday. Werewolf is a murder-mystery game played here on the Bethesda forums. You may address me as Sir Wyatt… or whatever, Im not picky. I will be the host of this game. As host, it is my job to run and manage the game and to keep things fair. The rules of the game may seem intimidating at a first glance, but Werewolf has a smooth and enjoyable learning curve, and is a highly engaging and enjoyable game once you get the hang of it. As such, I encourage anyone at all to have a go. I also encourage everyone to practice using their patience because this is my first go at hosting and while I will try my hardest not to, I might [censored] up somewhere along the line.

Werewolf is a murder mystery game where you goal is to kill off the other team, the two teams are innocents and werewolves. Every day lasts for 22 hours from 9am pdt to 7am pdt the following morning, and will start monday the 25th. Each night the arch-wolf will PM me a target to kill. I will then use the profiles to give the innocents evidence to help them catch the killer. The wolves job to mislead the innocents and stay alive for as long as possible.

The Set-up

On a journey from LAX to the beautiful Philippine Islands, your plane has gotten itself caught up in one nasty storm. You find yourself on an island waiting for rescue, praying that your luck will hold out.

Totally claiming the name James "Sawyer" Ford.

Reserved, yo.

I'm in!!

Name: Lilly Austen
Age: 22
Build: 5'6" inch / 121lbs, slim and not very muscular.
Appearance: Lilly has blue eyes, she is a brunette and has a short modern coupe and she is wearing her airlines uniform.
luggage: some extra pairs of tights, nail polish, her airline identity card, passport, several grooming products, and a small pocket size mirror.

Personality:Lilly seems very calm and friendly, if you annoy her in any way she will first try and solve the problem on a friendly basis though if you are really unreasonable with her don’t be surprised if she secretly puts some laxative products in your coffee.
History: Lilly grew up in a small town not to far from Los Angeles. She was primarily raised by her mother since her father wasn’t home very often when she was a little girl.
1 week before her 8th birthday he left home for good and she hasn’t seen him since.
The reason why is still vague for Lilly and whenever she asks her mum about it she tells her ‘he was a bad man not worth talking about’.
Last year Lilly decided to ‘spread her wings’ and apply at the airline to become a flight attendant.
Business or Pleasure: Lilly is a flight attendant and was working on the flight from LAX which was caught up in the storm.

Reserved, please.

I thought i had already posted but I guess not

I too enjoy a bit of strandification. Reserved.

How hard is Werewolf to pick up and learn? I'm willing to give it a shot, but I'm just concerned that I'll be drowning as soon as that plane crashes in a sea of information I have no idea how to process.

Reserved.

By the way, about the Warlock and Arch...do they have different conversion cycles? Like, say, does the former convert every three days while the latter only every four?


Not hard at all. It's all about reading the writeups every day and trying to figure out from them what are clues, and who they point at. Join us, we don't bite. Unless we're wolves.

The Arch will not be converting unless the warlock dies, though there will be murders on conversion days.

I know the Arch doesn't convert unless the Warlock dies, but is there any disadvantage to losing the Warlock? If they have the same conversion cycle, then it would seem more to their advantage to bump the warlock off early, since they'd have more control over who they convert.

Ah, yes, it will be a four day cycle if the arch takes over



Its pretty simple, and very fun

I'll like to reserve a spot.

Reserve please

Save me a spot!

At the funeral, James began a letter to the con man, vowing to find him one day and kill him. James dropped out of school in the ninth grade. At 19, he was $6,000 in debt, and he tried the confidence trick his nemesis has used to obtain the money. He later adopted the name of his enemy. Though he continued tracking the original Sawyer to take revenge, he became the very man he hunted.
Business or Pleasure: James is trying to track the man that conned his mother and drove his father to murder.
