WW: LXXXVI - The Halls of Mandos

This is an experimental game with an additional game thread for the dead.

Activities on the living thread:
Plain old werewolf, except: Roles are not revealed upon death.

Activities on the dead thread:
Every Day, the dead people get to vote on giving one of the living an extra vote. Their voting ends at the same time as the living vote ends, so it will be unknown to the living who among them has the extra vote. The identity of the double voter will be revealed in the narration. Every Night (beginning when there are at least 3 dead), the dead people vote for one among themselves . At the end of the vote it will be revealed whether the person counts for the wolves or the innocent. (In other words, they will be told whether a fellow dead person is a wolf or not.)

The living may not look into the dead thread. There is, of course, no way to actually enforce that, so players are on the honor system.
The dead can continue reading the living thread, but, of course, may not post there. They may also read the entire dead thread, including parts posted before their own death.

Participation in the Mandos thread is optional. No modfire is awaiting anyone.
Living players who do not vote for two consecutive days will be modfired (moved to the dead thread).

Players who don't abide by the lovely werewolf rules will be modfired (for real), glazed, and used to mix cookie dough. :P

Macalaure will be my co-mod, and we can start the game once we have a full village (ideally 20, but we'll go ahead with fewer if signups are slow).

Deadline will probably be around 10 or 11 PM EST.

Multiple lynches of any number of players are allowed. In Mandos, tied votes will be decided by a coin toss.l


The roles (let us know if you have any suggestions/comments):

-3 wolves. Normal wolf pack.
Clarification:
Living wolves can PM one another by Night, and dead wolves can PM one another at any time. Living wolves, however, cannot communicate with dead wolves.

-3 cobblers. No special powers.

-Beren and Lúthien - Lovers: when one dies, xe spends 1 Day among the dead, then returns to the living for 1 Day, after which both die. Aligned with the village, win if village wins.

-Glorfindel - Ranger: like the lovers, Glorfindel will spend 1 Day in Mandos and then return to the living the Day after that. Before his return, he has one protection per Night; after his return, he will have the ability to protect two people every Night. He can protect himself. He cannot protect a person twice in a row.

-Seer. Normal seer, except that xe continues to dream after xer death. Can only dream of the living when alive, can only dream of the dead after his death. Can detect cobblers.

-Hunter. Normal illogical hunter.
