NotW XXXVII - The Party [Game Thread]

[Sprig]

Werewolf Team pm

Spoiler sprig :

Congratulations, you are the

Werewolf Faction​

Victory Condition:
Overpower the Town and Kill the King. – This is achieved by having equal or greater numbers that the Innocent Faction.

Background:
You are all tired of the insane disregard for the Belseraph Nation. You all feel that the Nation could be far grander than it currently is. It is clear that it is all those insane freaks that are holding the Nation back. And there is no bigger insane freak than LightFang the Laughing King, (Perpentach).

You like-minded individuals have banded together and thought up a devious plan to overthrow the King. The key to the plan is to infiltrate the Kings palace but the only way to do that is to create a diversion. Luckily, Catharsis the Feisty Mimic, is actually a Werewolf. A quite handy tool to create distractions and overpower the Town. Robbiecon the Dwarven Druid has developed a unique remote controlled bomb and using the distraction of the werewolf, it is planned to slip these bombs into (literally) key targets. Daveshack the Hardy Blacksmith, has lent his skill to craft the bombs into unrecognisable everyday items, in case anyone should be caught holding the bombs. He is also an Agent of the Council Esus, which makes him an accomplished spy and handy lookout.

Together, you skills should be more than enough to overthrow the King, but you are all without doubt that it will be tricky. The King despite being mad is certainly powerful in his own right. You would be a fool to challenge the King directly. Instead, to be safe, you will wait until you have thinned the Number of Party Guests.

Key notes:
You teams effective Kills per night is two.
The Laughing King (Light Fang) is not a eligible target for Kill Abilities.
If the King Dies before you have overpowered the Innocent Faction, your overpower ratio will double. This means if the king dies and there is Three of you left, victory will be achieved once the ‘Innocent Faction’ is down to Six people. (2 left: 4 people, 1 left: 2 people)

I have taken the liberty to create a quicktopic for faction discussion. The quicktopic is private forum and you should not under any circumstance give the link to another person outside your faction.

Spoiler sprig :

Role:
The Colourful Jester

Alignment:
Innocent

Sanity:
Insane

Victory Condition:
Remove all threats to the King and Town.

Abilities:
Intuition - During the night phase you may select one player to use your intuition to reveal Alignment.

Items:
Sceptre - this sceptre is the source of you power. It was given to you by the king and without it you feel that you will not be able to use you keen intellect anymore.

Personal Goal:
Inflict pain. - lots of pain. Be the person to execute someone. This is achieved by being the first to vote for someone who is then lynched that day.

Background:
People generally do not realise the difficulty you go through every day. Being a jester and trying to please the courts of a moody King is no mean feat. Early in the job you came to realise that, your survival really came down to how fast you could suggest a painful games at the expensive of another, before you yourself become involved in somebody else's suggestion.
And so you are here once again to Party with the King, pity you failed to read your invitation carefully and are stuck hunting werewolves. Not Fun.

Personal Goal:
Catch 5 people out of bed. – Use your ability to catch 5 different people active at night.

Background:
You are a inquisitive person you always have been, even though you are slightly mad. You used to be a poor beggar on the streets after your family kicked you out. All that you retain from your previous life is your grandmothers Orb. You doubt you would have survived at all if it were not for this orb. After having the good fortune to attend a previous royal party, you realised that a Jester is the perfect career for you. You watched the colourful Jester at work and it was magnificent to see his subtle works, watching him hold the Kings ear and suggest tormented games for the other guests to endure. And so the Jester has taken you on as his apprentice and invited you to attend this party. Unfortunately this party involves catching a nasty werewolf but you feel that if you are the one to catch him, you could be celebrated as a hero. You can hardly wait to put your insane mind to the task.

Notw XXXVII - Role PM - Earthling the Zealous Zealot

Items:
None

Personal Goal:
Mind Stapling. – ensure that Choxorn the Dancing Bear is killed.

Background:
You were adjusting the mainsail, getting ready to head home after a long day at sea, when suddenly you felt it. A terrible presence situated thousands of feet beneath you. You thought you were going mad, until you saw your expression mirrored on the faces of your crew. Something was down there, and had you known then what it was, you would have headed for the shore and never sailed out again. But that was then, and now your mind is fully open to the Octopus Overlords. The madness sweeps over in waves, it helps the Overlords communicate with you, it tells you want to say and do. Visions they show you, madness is the key you need to unlock the mysteries of those visions. You wish for others to join you in the madness, it is clear that the Dancing Bear refuses to cooperate; his mind is just not on a level that will be able to communicate with the Overlords. If he can’t join then he is of no use and must be killed.

Notw XXXVII - Role PM - Robbiecon the Dwarven Druid

Spoiler sprig :

Robbiecon the Dwarven Druid ​

Role:
The Dwarven Druid

Alignment:
Werewolf

Sanity:
Sane

Victory Condition:
Overpower the Town and Kill the King.

Abilities:
Implant - (item dependent) – Once a night, using your ‘Surgical tools' you may insert one of your Bombs (or another item) into another party guest.
Detonate – (item dependent) - At any time, you may pulled the trigger on your detonator.

Items:
Surgical Tools – Allows you to ‘Implant’ an Item inside another person. This ability will RoleBlock the Target and hide an Item inside them. (Active)
Detonator – Appears to be a Metal Box with a button on it. Allows you to ‘Detonate’ all active bombs. Bombs in your Faction’s possession are automatically inactive. (Active)
Worn Ring – Appears to be a normal Ring – ‘Bomb’
Shiny Amulet – Appears to be a normal Amulet – ‘Bomb’
Silver Coin – Appears to be a normal Coin – ‘Bomb’

Personal Goal:
Make at least Five people Explode at once. – Unfortunately you have not figured out how to control which bombs explode. It is all or none. The best way to win will be to surprise the King and Innocent Faction. Implant your bombs into at least Five people and Detonate them.

Background:
You have always loathed the King, that evil man who thinks he is better than everyone else. Well, you know for a fact that he is not greater than you. You are greatest Druid the world has seen, the world just doesn’t know it yet. You have developed an amazing technology that no one has seen before, a soft and chemically inert explosive compound. The trouble with normal explosive is that they explode with the slightest spark but not so for your invention. Better yet, you can remotely activate the explosive. As soon as you invented this, you knew that you could take over the world. The world would fear you for your ability and bow down before you. Such ambition you have. But the first step of many steps is to get rid of the troublesome & insane King.

You have found some others who are not happy with the status quo and convinced them to help you. The Feisty Mimic is a Werewolf and will provide useful distraction. The Blacksmith is the Brawn and will keep a look out and he is also holding the rest of your Bombs. As well as being a skilled Druid, you are also a sharp eyed surgeon. The best way to ensure an item is with the intended target is to implant it inside them. Of course, you can just give the item away but there is no way to know that the recipient will keep it.

Personal Goal:
Animal Freedom. – Ensure that both the Dancing bear and the Cute Bear-Cub survive.

Background:
You are a rare find in Jubilee, someone with an Education is far from normal. Also it is abnormal that you are a educated Harlequin. Even more abnormal is that you are completely sane. Normally, most of you kind are wild and run around the countryside catching animals and other wild creatures and while your heart does belong out in the open and wild world, it is the study of animals that most interest you.
Long ago you captured a great bear. Such a difficult task it was, he was like no other bear. It was clear from his movement and his elusiveness that he was completely sentient. You had to capture him, you just had to. You knew that the bear was important for your studies. A long time has past since then and while there was great animosity between you in the beginning, you feel that you have started to develop a friendship. So when a werewolf started ripping through the population, you knew that the Dancing Bear would be an asset in the capture of said werewolf.

You heard the Harlequin read out the invitation and, of course, heard the part about catching the werewolf. He begged you to come to the Palace to help but you had no interest, after all the werewolf was not your problem. In the end, the Harlequin offered you the only thing that could entice you to help… Freedom.

People might call you crazy for this but unlike most of the towns inhabitants you have kept your sanity. Well, except for one small quirk.

You have a rather weird curiosity, you love trying to find stuff. It might stem from working with dead animals all day. You love to slice open animal stomachs and see what is hidden in their entrails. People would be surprised by what you find there. Not you though, you probably have seen it all.

Background:
Your parents used to be Merchants, they sold many fantastic items, of which, only the Difficult Puzzle remains. Your Parents were unfortunately killed by a roving band of Werewolves. Watching your parents get ripped apart is enough to drive anyone a crazy. It is probably fortunate that you are crazy, It is highly unlikely that you would have been able to survive on your own if you were not. When you are in the crazy world, begging and thievery are just mere games, challenges for the mind and body. The recent spate of Killings by werewolves has reignited the memory of your parents death and but also a passion for revenge. Perhaps this werewolf is the one responsible, Maybe you can be the one to bring it to justice.

Oh how you would love to get your hands on the explosive ‘detonator’. The Council of Esus would pay you a fortune for the device. But getting it might not be that simple. Will the Dwarven Druid let you have it? Either way, there is another member of the Council here to observe the device in action. If you can get your hands on the detonator and Kill at least one person with it, you are sure that you will be well rewarded.

Background:
You have to be insane to chase after Dragons and Insane you are. You have never been in Belseraph lands before and it certainly has been quite a marvel. You were on your way back from defeating a rather nasty Dragon and decided to rest in the town of Jubilee to heal your wounds. Being insane, you actually fit in quite well with the Belseraph Crowd. Werewolves are not really you thing but you think they can’t be any worse than Dragons, after all, Werewolves don’t breathe fire. Well since you here you might as well enjoy yourself and maybe help out in catching the werewolf.
P.S. That Cookie from the King was delicious.

Personal Goal:
Betrayed. - Obtain a Weapon, kill by any means the other two Esus Agents.

Background:
You are the "Foolish Slave", but are you really foolish? You are actually a trained assassin who works for the council of Esus. Being a slave is just a cover role. You want the people to think that you are helpless but inside you have the heart of a killer. But actually you have been pretty foolish, you should have expected that there would be consequences to failing your last mission.

After that Failure, you blindly accepted the mission to kill the Taskmaster and also accepted the weapon they gave you to perform the task without question. You should have asked yourself why they gave you a weapon when normally you source your own equipment, but you didn’t in your eagerness to prove yourself. It was only when you drew the blade to strike the Taskmaster did you realised that the Knife was bound with a curse designed to reflect back on its user. It launched itself with a mind of its own towards your heart, it was only due to your prodigious skill that you were able to deflect it away with your hand at the last second. Unfortunately, you hand is now lame, it will take a couple of days to heal.

You are absolutely furious that the council would tried to do away with you. You want to get revenge you want to prove to them that they made a really bad mistake. You know that there are always several Agents of the Council hanging around the Court of the Laughing King. You will make an example out of them.

Awhile ago you cursed these two mortal enemies and combined their souls into one. So that if one should perish, so should the other. Unfortunately you seem to have misplaced the Parchment that contained the enchantment. If you could find where you misplaced it and get it back, you might be able to curse some more unlucky souls. Though there is a downside, that being the two wretched beings following you around everywhere you go. And in this case they have followed you on your mission to infiltrate the Palace.

There are several other agents here, you noticed the Foolish Slave for one. You saw her lame attempt to try kill the taskmaster and watch the blade fall from her hands. It is a shame that you could not pick it up, as it is sure to cause mischief in the wrong hands. The other agent is one you do not know. All you know is that you are suppose to witness a demonstration for the council. Other than that, you might as well help out in catching this werewolf.

You are a champion for Truth and Justice, long you have travelled the lands protecting the weak and down-trodden. Eventually your travels took you to Jubilee. You are not so much a champion of justice anymore, you are not sure why. You just feel like it is too much of an effort. You wonder what brought this feeling on. You tell yourself that must be just pure coincidence that your lethargic feeling coincided with your discovery of the Magic Herb. But now there is a werewolf running around. Not long ago you would have got up and hunted it down by yourself. Shamed by your lack of action you have finally stirred into action and gatecrashed the party at the palace. You will find this werewolf to prove that you haven’t lost any of your skill. Of course, you brought along your magic herbs just in case.

Your presence is so overbearing that anyone you hang around with for any decent length of time is a likely bash his own brains in just to escape your presence.

Catharsis!

edit: Oh and Cat, those Rs truly belong to Rodion Romanovitch Raskolnikov

 

[choxorn]

What's with remake, Renata, and Winston's PG's?

Also, how could Caesar and Joooray be uncursed?

 

[RRRaskolnikov]

@choxorn: I got remake's character. The PG was to keep my herb item.

 

[Sprig]

What's with remake, Renata, and Winston's PG's?

Also, how could Caesar and Joooray be uncursed?

The Intricate knife which started off in Renata's possession would kill whoever attempted to use it.

The stained parchment in the orcs possession was the key. But he couldn't read it. If the item was studied by Seon or rhawn it would have revealed the item ability which could have lifted the curse (or place a new one).

 

[classical_hero]

If I had a weapon, would it have meant that I was able to ward off attackers?

 

[DaveShack]

The Intricate knife which started off in Renata's possession would kill whoever attempted to use it.

I dodged a bullet then. We thought about trying to use the knife to get a 3rd kill. At the time I wrote my orders up, I almost said to stab someone, but decided to shadow instead. Then I almost posted an order change thinking we really needed the extra kill to finish it sooner, but since the description said stab but didn't say kill, I was worried it might reveal the person who used it or something.

 

[Winston Hughes]

@Diamondeye
I was right! You were behind the curse, and you did want to create another one.

Of course, what I didn't grasp was that your villainy was just a red herring...

@Camikaze
Why did you let us lynch dcmort, when you knew that he hadn't stolen the knife?

@sprig
Why didn't dcmort see the gloves when he scanned me?

@DaveShack
After talking with Renata and classical_hero, we figured that the knife would kill anyone who tried to use it, and agreed to keep that info quiet in the hope that you villains would try it.

@choxorn
My PG was the death of the Orc, Joooray.

 

[robbiecon]

I see my fake claim of scanning magical items was practically the same as Seon's actual ability and PG, except I did overdo it with my behind the scenes claim. I said I had to scan 3 magical items AND give someone an item useful to them.

 

[Camikaze]

@Camikaze
Why did you let us lynch dcmort, when you knew that he hadn't stolen the knife?

My priority at the time was both surviving myself and getting lots of items. Admitting it was me at the time seemed contrary to those goals.

 

[civplayah]

(civplayah alway came up innocent,

Oh, I did?

 

[Sprig]

@sprig
Why didn't dcmort see the gloves when he scanned me?

dcmort only scanned hidden items aka those that were implanted.

Some Sample night result pms from night 3.

Notw XXXVII - night action results - night 3 (Takhisis)

Spoiler :

You crept into the bed of Renata, whether she was awake or not you didn't know. You assumed you spoon position, your favourite and kept him nice and warm with your soft and cuddle arms wrapped round him.

Late at night there was a disturbance at the door. The commotion was clearly coming from outside the door. You got up and ventured a peak. All you saw was a werewolf running away. Perhaps someone had saved you.

Let's hug Renata the upperclass twit!
A three-armed embrace it is.

Notw XXXVII - night action results - night 3 (Choxorn)

Spoiler :

You follow the young Bear Cub. You watch him enter a strangers room. Strange you think but you decide to keep watch for a nice little cosy spot.

Half asleep you notice some movement by the door. You see a human figure, what gender you cannot tell though it does not matter as this figure soon transforms into a Werewolf. You see the werewolf reach for the door, you jump into action, you run at the were wolf and take him in a head on collision. You have him pinned to the ground and unleash a furious barrage of punches. Each one of your mighty strokes bares a terrible toll on the werewolf's body.

Suddenly, you are struck from behind. You look to see who did it and you gave the werewolf the split second he needed. With his immense strength he threw you off him and ran down the hall out of sight.

Takhisis the Cute Bear-Cub was protected from Attack.

Notw XXXVII - night action results - night 3 (renata)

Spoiler :

Since your Knife that you found, then lost, then re-found, then voted to a dirty Goblin and now in said guests possession, you might as well sleep the whole night.

You were lying in your bed listening to the other guests in the castle to go to sleep when you heard your bedroom door open. You were lying on the bed facing the away from the door so you couldn't see who it was.

Whoever, or perhaps to be more precise, whatever it was, moved into your room. It certainly had a large presence and caused you to think 'oh crap, oh crap, oh crap'

The large creature stopped at your bed. it rested what you think was a paw onto your bed then climbed in behind you assuming the spoon position. Needless to say you felt very awkward. A large paw drape over you and it seemed that you would have no chance to escape.

However it didn't take long for the creature to fall asleep. The question was did you risk moving? You slowly turn you head and shuffled you body little by little to see what the creature was.

You finally got to gaze at the creature and saw that it was a bear. Fast asleep in your bed. W... T... F...

You pondered what to do, your couldn't really try get away, what if you disturbed it and it then ate you? As you lay there you noticed the Bear was actually quite soft and cuddly. So you decided to just go back to sleep.

Notw XXXVII - night action results - night 3 (robbiecon)

Spoiler :

It was time to implant the horse shoe into Renata.

You went to her room and carefully looked around to make sure no one else was there.

You were very surprised then to see your comrade Catharsis. It seems he had followed the bear-cub to the room of Renata.

You both decide to let the Catharsis go first. You watch as the Mimic transforms into a werewolf. Just as he is about to open the door, are large creature flies into him knocking the werewolf to the ground. There is a fury of punches, and you run up to the creature and knock him over the head with the horseshoe. It doesn't do much but buys enough time for the werewolf to throw the creature off.

You quickly enter the nearest door to escape but you forgot that the door belonged to renata. You slowly turn around and are in for another shock.

Lying on the bed fast a sleep is Renata the Upperclass Twit and behind her in the spoon position is Takhisis the Cute Bear-Cub.

It takes all your effort to not make a sound. Your are too scared to leave because what maybe lurking outside and too afraid to do anything in case the bear-cub wakes up.

Long story short. You grab a hold of your balls and decide to proceed with your mission. You implant the Horse into Renata without the Twit or the Bear-Cub Waking up.

 

[Winston Hughes]

dcmort only scanned hidden items aka those that were implanted.

So he would never have seen the knife anyway?

 

[Takhisis]

What the f-? So the implanting of bombs was unprotectable against too?

 

[DaveShack]

I believe implanting was probably roleblockable. We certainly treated it as such, so I was using shadow to try to find out who was roleblocking.
(and to find protection too)

 

[Takhisis]

btw was Renata's death a reference to The Godfather?

 

[Sprig]

btw was Renata's death a reference to The Godfather?

nope
