Tol-in-Gaurhoth (Isle of Werewolves) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Anguirel · 12-14-2005, 04:37 AM

Perfect!

Well, I'll be back this time tomorrow, and hope to see a merry band of wolves ready to receive their roles...

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-14-2005, 05:23 AM

Sounds interesting.

I assume that it will be just like regular Werewolf, but with the roles reversed (ie Heroes know who each other are, kill a Wolf each night and Wolves have to try to find and kill them).

Do the Heroes make their kills during the day, with Wolvish discussions taking place at night?

Provided that we can start this weekend or early next week, I should be OK.

I shall be the Big Bad Wolf, full of huff and puff.

You have it exactly right! Which should make it most confusing and fun...

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 12-14-2005, 06:16 AM

Anguirel, old boy, I would consider it an honour to play in thy game of Werewolf.

Holbytlass · 12-14-2005, 06:31 AM

Anguirel, that is a great idea! There are fairytale stories out where the roles are reversed, such as "Goldilockas and the Three Bears"- the three bears are the victims and Goldilocks is the vicious thief.

How is your game going to work? Will there be lots of wolves and a couple of villagers that do the killing at night? Anyway, sounds like fun. I won't have the honor of being part of your village, but look forward to your storyline.

Boromir88 · 12-14-2005, 07:00 AM

Wow Anguirel this sounds great, wonderful idea. I would like to dip my hands in this situation, and this shall be my last game for a while as after Christmas the Fireworks season starts.

dancing spawn of ungoliant · 12-14-2005, 07:36 AM

I'd really like to play in this game (and live a tad longer than in the last one... )!

Good thing Anguirel asked me to be back-up mod.

Does that mean that the game starts with the lynching of a villager or will it start with a Day phase?

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 12-14-2005, 01:58 PM

That girl is going to play Morgoth to my Túrin—verily, it is again my turn to fear the malice of Cailín.

I will be a Black Warg from the now bitter land of Rhûn. Spiteful, treacherous and callous. Impressionable young wolves look up to me as an inspiration.

Looking forward to the game Ang.

A mere warg amongst werewolves? An easy target for bullying is more likely

Oddwen · 12-14-2005, 11:47 AM

Ooohh ooh oooh oooo I've been waiting for a game like this...would this game start on Sunday, perchance?

And would the wolves be able to communicate secretly (aka PM's) also? Though that would probably cut down on public discussions.

If it does start on Sunday, please sign me up. Hopefully my free time won't be too dodgy.

I shall be - a bloody-minded young whelp.

Farael · 12-14-2005, 12:16 PM

Great, my first WW game and I'm already a werewolf for sure! what? you are saying that we will all be werewolves? that now the role of the werewolves will be taken by the villagers? you tricksy barrow downers' trying to get me all confused already!!

On a sidenote, I think I may be a werewolf in denial, who pretends that he is just a very hairy man who befriends werewolves at night.... it will be interesting but it is likely to get me killed, so I might just change that.

Kath · 12-14-2005, 01:07 PM

I'd love to join up again. I'll have more time this game too since I'm (finally) off school so I should be louder!

Formendacil · 12-14-2005, 01:30 PM

This is a hilarious idea, Anguirel!

Hmm... a role....

Big Bad Wolf... taken.
Crossdressing Grandma Wolf... no thanks...
Hmm... Balto? Nah!

Just call me Lobo.

Glirdan · 12-14-2005, 06:07 PM

Oh, I'm so in!!!! Please, if there's room, Put me up on the list!!!

Lhunardawen · 12-14-2005, 07:47 PM

This will be so interesting. And I'm glad to see the return of Eomer.

I shall be the girl-who-cried wolf.

Boromir88 · 12-14-2005, 08:42 PM

My next role I was planning to be an exorcist specializing in werewolves., but in a werewolf village this would be rather...frowned upon. So, I guess I'll be an exorcist specializing in heroes.

tar-ancalime · 12-15-2005, 02:20 AM

Definitely wishing I had time for this.

I can't possibly play, but if I could my role would be ROYAL BITCH.

And there was me thinking that you would be a Wily Coyote ...

Anguirel · 12-15-2005, 04:17 AM

morm, you're a hero. (Not casting any aspersions!) I was wondering how I was going to memorise everyone...

Saucepan Man-Big Bad Wolf
Mormegil-Crabby Old Wolf
Gurthang-Gil-Gurth
Rune-Wolf-in-Shepherd's-Clothing
Formendacil-Lobo
Farael-Werewolf In Denial
Lhuna-Girl-Who-Cried-Wolf
Eomer-Black Warg of Rhun
Boromir-Exorcist Specialising in Heroes
Spawn-Wolf O' Nine Tails
Kitanna-Beta Wolf
Oddwen-Bloodthirsty Whelp
Kath-Runt of the Litter
Mithalwen??? (I hope so ) (Me too...)-Alpha Female
Meneltarmacil-Lone Wolf
Wayne-Fairy Hunter
Nonnacedak-Scavenger
Glirdan-Butcher

Holby can't play, sadly. Actually, I'm going to settle for 17 players and end it here, because 17 is a pleasantly bizarre number...do think of roles, those of you who haven't yet. And Mith, please confirm that you can play. Naturally it's compulsory that you say yes...

When all that's sorted, I'll send out secret roles.

Oh, and how to people feel about Nights (ie Days) starting and ending at 2:00pm GMT/7:00pm EST?

We'll start as soon as possible-indeed, I'd like to post the thread tomorrow afternoon, ideally!

Mithalwen · 12-15-2005, 06:46 AM

Oh go on then.... but I would just state that while I should be able to get on every day with a bit of effort , unless a miracle happens and I persuade my mac to go online ... it will be from work, cybercafes, libraries etc... therefore I may only be around for a limited period once on days when I am not at work. ......

Worked well enough for me!
