I think all of the four qualify as possible wolves, even several of them, well all of them could be...

Not Mac's packmates they couldn't.

I was thinking especially of Firefoot.

Yeah, but I thought of them generally being wolves to start with...

It looks like it's bedtime for me, so

++Shasta

Looks like the most sensible thing to do. Good night my lovelies.

Lottie is going to be so disappointed to find the seer isn't here.

Unless, of course, the unknown role chose to empower the Seer upon the Seer's death, so that the Seer is allowed two Living dreams per night even after death, on the condition that the results are sent to the player of his choice among the Living and he never sees the results himself. And the power only lasts so long as the unknown remains among the Living, and upon the death of the unknown the Seer entirely loses the ability to dream.

Just saying.

Hey, something like that has actually been done before, I remember something like that...

Anyway, I guess empowering Shasta now makes sense. Will wait still for a while in case something unexpected happens...

Okay, so just trying a couple things out... Please build off of and poke holes when necessary to refine...

Scenario:
Boro is Seer
Nerwen and Sally are telling the truth & innocent

LIVING
Seer: Boro
Ranger:
Lover: Sally
Lover:

Innocent: Shasta, Lommy

Wolves: Lottie

Unknown: Form, McCaber, Firefoot, Lalaith, Eomer, Morm, Nilp, Mith, Kath

COMPLICATION: Nerwen could have received the PM and reported it accurately despite being guilty- she felt forced to do it accurately or risk being outed as dishonest.

COMPLICATION: Nerwen is the Seer trying to cast doubt on her Seership.

Haha. Firefoot shooting herself to the foot?

You only could have know that that was how the kills fell out if you were, in fact, a member of one of the packs.
And vengeful and angry Lottie shooting straight to the torso then?

It would be nice we'd used a system confirmed by a wolf to tell the people what we know...
