Dueling Wizards Werewolf II discussion thread

[mormegil]

Any approximate on starting dates?

[Gwathagor]

Hey, um, this is going to make me really look stupid, but...what exactly do the ranger and hunter do?

[Roa_Aoife]

Don't worry about it, Gwath.

The ranger picks one person a night to protect. If the wolves attack that person, there is no kill.

The hunter also picks one person a night to hunt. If the wolves kill the hunter, that person dies also.

It should also be noted that the hunter has a long and proud history of killing the seer.

[Gwathagor]

Ah, thanks. I must have missed that day of class in Werewolf 101.

So my brother's a crook, eh? Awesome. My life just got a lot more exciting.

Now, there's one thing I want to clear up. Exactly what relation am I to Volo? Is this decided? Is he my son, or the cat? Or both (meaning one of us is crazy), or neither?

Actually, I'm your grandfather.

"Crook" is indelicate.

I'm supposed to be indelicate, I'm your little brother. But I guess I'll be a henchman then.

The approximate I have talked of earlier was May 30th to 31st - beginning with a Night phase. So that makes it something like ten days from now.

I'll be home late Sunday-evening and will start drawing things together in the beginning of next week. We have now something like 24 players. We'd do well with a couple more even if the game can be played fine with this number of players. But if you have someone in mind please call them to join. I will do some calling next week if the number of players has stayed the same as I get home from my trip.

I'll look at the family trees as well then.


I do agree with many here that the wizard's minions should need a license from their wizard to PM together. Also I see Roa's argument on the GW not being able to "scry-protect" her gifteds quite persuasive.

Keep on bringing up any issues that come to mind and commenting on those already discussed. I'll be working out the more detailed rules next week so until then all points will be considered.

[Gwathagor]

I eagerly await the formalized rules, when all shall be made clear and order created out of the chaos.

I thought you were a ca- I mean, a dog? Or has your sudden canine transformation reversed?

Anyways, I'm still rather confused. If Volo is Nogrod's grandfather, then Roa's children would be our aunts and uncle from before or now our cousins (or by hobbit standards, possibly)?
Though, I think Nogrod will be able to clear up his relation in another family tree. Hopefully.

Awh, well, I couldn't leave Aganzir sisterless.

I'm actually rather curious how that is going to work out in this game, say, if the EW finds the seer before our hunter does, etc.

I'm going to have to agree with Roa on the abilities of the GW. It doesn't leave much unpredictibility to the game if either way a gifted or a wolf has a greater chance of automatically changing sides. We'd still lose wolves and gifteds, but the ordos would win with a greater advantage by majority in numbers alone. I know, they're "supposed" to win, but still... Think of the wolves too...

Okay, so if Rikae and I are sisters, and Nogrod is the bother of Lalaith and Nerwen, and Volo is their father, then the only family NOT connected to everyone else is Morm and Celuien and their children, Gwathagor and McCaber.

You might want to find a way to connect, there. Outsiders get lynched first. Just looking at my corrected chart, it would be easiest if Morm or Celuien was related to Cailin.

Also, who here is still considered a child or teenager? If I'm going to be a school teacher, then I want to know who my students are.

Yeah, sounds like we'd better figure something out.

Just figure it the hobbit way, you're distant cousins from Bree, twice removed on our great-grandfather's mother's aunt's side. It's such a bloody confusing relation that you were just assimulated into the immediate family as a strength in numbers motto to get back at those Proudfeet...

I'm going to let Lalaith take liberties with my age, since I don't want to make an age insult of a lady. (If you really want, I'm completely fine with anything that has coherent speaking and up, meaning, from about five years. Don't worry about working age, I delibertly picked a job that a child could easily do).

[Roa_Aoife]

Okay, here's my latest chart update for all the family connections, with status as child, adult, and elder labeled for those that I know for certain. (I assumed that Kath and Brinn were adults since they were already life partners.)

I'm phantom's little sister. As in not yet old enough to have a boyfriend/husband/job. I think I'm a pre-teen.

Yeah, that sounds good.

So I guess you're my teacher and aunt.

This is one complicated family tree.

I'm 15, or maybe a year or two younger. I attend your classes when I don't have any better things to do.
