PLEASE DO NOT POST UNTIL SPECIFIED

Depending on the amount of players I get, some of these roles may not actually make it into the game. However, if I get MORE then what I need, I may add in a role or two.

As for the roles thus far, we have:

2 Seers (well sort of

) *
1 Ranger
1 Hunter
4 Wolves
3 Lovers **
2 Shirrifs
1 Cursed
1 Mythomaniac
1 Unicorn

There are also a few roles of my own that I created for the purpose of this game.
I'm going to post the God/Goddess that corresponds with each role. However, PLEASE READ ALL ROLES POSTED CAREFULLY. Some of them have added twists and such to their role! Also, READ THE FOOTNOTES. Very important information on the roles there as well!

---------------------------------------------------------

Zeus– King of the Gods – Lovers with Hera, who will be allowed to PM during Night Phase only. If Hera is lynched during the Day, Zeus will take a revenge kill. If she is Night Killed (ie. Hunter or Hunting Guardian), Zeus will PM me one name at the start of the Day and will have the power to either kill them, protect them, see their role or have an extra vote (which they may send to me) for that Day. **

Hera - Queen of the Gods – Lovers with Zeus AND is also a Wolf. Zeus and Hera will be allowed to PM during Night Phase only. If Zeus is lynched during the Day, Hera will NOT take a revenge kill. Instead, Hera will PM me one name at the start of the Day and will have the power to either see their role or have an extra vote (which they may send to me) for that Day. **

Poseidon- God of the Sea – Poseidon is this games Unicorn. When Poseidon dies I will put the names of all of the dead in a hat, including the Unicorn’s name. If the name I pick out is of an innocent (or Cobbler) that person will come back to life ALONG WITH Poseidon. If a Wolf or the False Seer is chosen, no one comes back.

Hestia - Virgin Goddess of the Hearth – I’m bringing back a role that has not been used in some time…or at least since I’ve come back, and that’s a Mythomaniac. The Mythomaniac will send me a player’s name of their choice on Night 2, and depending on what that player’s role is, the Mythomaniac will then inherit the same role. This means that if they choose a Wolf, they will be introduced to their furry friends of crime. If they choose a Shirrif, they will be introduced to their cohorts of justice. If they choose a Seer, Ranger, Hunter or Ordo, they will become so, but will not be able to communicate. This does not mean that the Mytho will inherit the same powers (ie. If they choose Hera or Zeus). If the Mytho chooses the Unicorn, Cursed or Protector of the Youth (which I will explain later), they will remain an Ordo. The Mytho’s powers will only be activated come Day 2. Therefore, if they are the pick of the Night, they will still die.

Hades - God of the Underworld – Lovers with Persephone and is also a Wolf. Only Hades will know the identity of Persephone. If she dies before she has found him, he will also die. If Hades dies before Persephone, she will live on. If they have found each other and Persephone dies, Hades will take a revenge kill. **

Persephone - Queen of the Underworld – Lovers with Hades. She will PM me one name every Night of who she believes Hades to be. If she guesses right, the two will be allowed to PM one another and must try to win the game. If she dies before finding Hades, he will also die, but if he dies before she, then she will live on. If Hades dies once they have found each other, Persephone will be granted one vision of any player and their role. **

Demeter - Goddess of the Harvest – This role is the Protector of the Youth. Demeter will know the identity of Persephone. If she should be in danger of being lynched, Demeter will be granted an extra vote, which she may send to me at any point in the Day and up to five minutes after DL. She may only do so once. If Persephone is in danger of being Night Killed, Demeter will automatically save her, which will also only happen once.

Hebe – The Goddess of Youth – Hestia is one of two Shirrifs who will be allowed to PM both Day and Night. The Shirrifs are not allowed to reveal who they are while their partner is alive.

Hercules – Mortal son of Zeus – Hercules is the second Shirrif, with an added touch. If Hebe is to be lynched, Hercules will send me the name of one person he would like to protect that Night. Nothing will happen if Hebe is Night killed.

Apollo – God of Prophecy – Apollo will be the Seer for this game. Each Night, they will PM the name of one person and that person’s identity will be revealed to Apollo. *

Hermes – Messenger of the Gods – Will also be a Seer as well. Each Night, the will PM the name of one person and that person’s identity will be revealed to Hermes. *

Ares – God of War – Ares is a Wolf.

Hephaestus – God of the Forge– He is a Wolf as well as the Lover of Aphrodite. He does not know the identity of Aphrodite and will thus PM me on name every Night on who he thinks Aphrodite is. If either of them die before they’ve found one another, they will continue on. If Aphrodite dies when they have found each other, he will take a revenge kill. If Hephaestus knows her identity, but she does not know his, and she is killed, he will PM me the name of one person for a vision of what their role is. **

Aphrodite – Goddess of Love and Beauty – She is the Lover of Hephaestus, but does not know his identity. She will PM me one name every Night on who she thinks Hephaestus could be. If either of them die before they’ve found on another, they will continue on. If Hephaestus dies whey they have found each other, she will be granted the opportunity to either Hunt or Protect one person for the following Night phase. If Aphrodite knows his identity, but he does not know hers and he is killed, she will PM me the name of one person for a vision of what their role is. **

Pan – God of Wood and Pastures – Pan is the Ranger.

Dionysus – God of Wine – Dionysus is the Cursed. If the Wolves choose to Night kill him, he will join their ranks. Only the player and I will know that they are Dionysus. I will not reveal the Cursed until the end of the game.

Artemis – Goddess of the Hunt – Artemis will be this games Hunter (yes I did that on purpose). If Artemis is killed by a Werewolf or hanged by Villagers, she will PM me the name of one other player before being killed. That player is then automatically killed. She will also be working in tandem with the Hunting Guardian.

Eros – The God of Love (aka Cupid!) – Eros is the Hunting Guardian. Like the Ranger, each night, Eros will PM me the name of one other player to protect. However, should Eros be killed by the Wolves (and only the Wolves), he will send me the name of one other player to be killed automatically.

Athena – Goddess of Wisdom – Wise beyond her years, Athena will know the identities of one out of The Hunting Guardian, the Ranger, The Hunter and The Seer (at random). She will be the only one who knows which it is and she willNOT be allowed to PM said person. Should said character come in danger of being lynched (only lynched), she will send me an extra vote via PM, but she may only do so twice throughout the game.

FOOTNOTES

* ~ NOTE ~
One of the two Seers will be a False Seer! The False Seer's dreaming works such that if the False Seer dreams of the true Seer they're told they've found the False Seer, if they dream of anyone else I pull a role out of a hat containing all the remaining roles (minus the seer).

~ NOTE 2 ~
As far as the dreaming of the Seer’s goes, I will be telling them the dreamt player’s character name AND actual role. Makes their lives simpler instead of having to go back to the admin page and what not to see what Character represents what.

** The goal of all three Lovers pairing is to try to survive to the end. HOWEVER, this will only pertain to Zeus and Hera AT THE START OF THE GAME. Once the other two pairings have found each other, THEN it will be the goal of all three to win as Lovers. For the Wolves, there will be no revealing who you're counterpart is to your fellow packmates just as there will be no revealing who you're fellow packmates are to your Lover. And I should hope you all know this, bu there will be no revealing during the game either. If the pack so chooses, the Wolves MAY Night kill one of the counterparts. It is up to the Lover of the individual in question to try and save their partner.
-----------------------------------------------------

Now, as I've said, the only way I will be playing with ALL of these roles is if I get enough people signed up to play. If not enough people are playing, I will remove some roles. If we get more then enough, I may add in a Bear or a Cobbler to the game.
