Forum Games

This is a game centered around tricks and deceit. You will be given a role, and based on that role, you have different abilities and goals (see roles post). Depending on the activity level of the players, this game can span anywhere from a day to a week. You may make this as much of a roleplay as you would like; some rounds may have a heavy roleplay style, while others might feel much more like just a game. This will depend on the way different participants want to play different rounds. Please read all rules and game mechanics thoroughly before applying to participate. Please do not ping me; I am subscribed.

Note: I am not the creator of this game. I am merely creating a forum for FR users to play it, with a few twists of my own.
The criteria for winning will be based on your role. There are two teams; the villager team, and the werewolf team. The villager team's goal is to identify the werewolves and banish them from their village. Conversely, the goal of the werewolves is to secretly pick off the villagers night by night. The villagers win when all werewolves have been banished. The werewolves win when their numbers equal the number of villagers left in the game.

• Please be kind and respectful to all people participating in or spectating the game.
• You may not reveal your role privately to anyone participating in or spectating the game, even after your character is eliminated. Upon the game's completion, all participants' roles will be revealed. You may, however, claim to be a particular role within the game itself, whether true or not. For example, you may tell everyone that you are the doctor, but that will likely make you target to a werewolf attack.
• If you fail to participate in the game when prompted for 24 hours, you will be eliminated from the round UNLESS you message me before hand explaining why you will be unable to participate. I will then decide if the round can be postponed or not.
• More rules may be added as needed.
• Failure to follow any of these rules will result in your elimination from the round. If you participate again and break another rule, you will be banned from all future rounds.
• If you have any questions, problems, or concerns regarding this game, please message me and I will help sort it out.

Abilities: Each night, they have the opportunity to either heal or poison a character of their choice. However, they may only choose each option once during the entire round.

They might not be included in the round.

They are aware of each other's identities. If one of them dies, so does the other. If one of them is banished, the bond breaks. Notes: There are only two Inseparable per game. They might not be included in the round.

If that character is not saved by the doctor, they will be eliminated from the game the following in-game morning. Notes: The number of werewolves will differ depending on the amount of players. There should be one werewolf for every six or seven players. This number may change.

However, if they are the last werewolf left in the round, they will be able to infect a player from the villager's team and turn them into a werewolf. This ability may only be used once. Notes: There is only one Infected per game. They might not be included in the game. These are all the most basic roles for this game, and they will be the only ones I am adding for now. In the future, more roles will likely be added so that less people are left with being villagers. If you have any ideas for possible roles, then please let me know. The scrys for all roles except the Infected were created by myself. The Infected's scry was created by @/Cynderfire, and the lovely outfits for the Villager, Doctor, Seer, and Werewolf were created by @/CheshireGata. The ideas for the Infected, Knight, Inseparable, and Witch Doctor were inspired by @/Cynderfire as well.

I just lost all of what I had spent the past 30+ minutes typing due to FR undergoing maintenance as it does when it hits 0:00, so if this isn't as thorough as it should be, that's why. If you have any questions about how the game works, let me know.

The round will start once I decide that there is a decent amount of people, which would probably be around 14-21 people, or possibly more. Before the round begins, I will privately message each player their role, and a short description of that role to serve as a refresher. Roles will be decided through a random number generator. Players who are werewolves will be told who their fellow werewolves are, but villagers will not be told who are their fellow villagers. Once everyone is given their roles, the round will begin.
As the sun rises on the first day, the villagefolk gather in the town square to introduce themselves. Each player will introduce their character as they are prompted to do so. You can include information like your character's name, profession, general personality, basic background, quirks, hobbies, and so on. Be as specific or as general as you like. Try not to write an entire novel, please! Once every character is introduced, night begins to fall, and the villagefolk head to sleep.
Once the villagers are asleep, the werewolves awaken to attack. The werewolves will be given time to discuss among themselves (through private messages) who they would like to eliminate from the game. The werewolves will then each vote on who they would like to eliminate by messaging me. If there is a tie, I will give the werewolves a chance to recast the votes. If there is another tie, then no villager will be eliminated that night. Once the votes are cast, the chosen villager will be eliminated from the game unless they are saved by the doctor. The werewolves settle down to sleep.
Next to awaken is the doctor. The doctor has the opportunity to save anyone from a possible werewolf attack, including themselves. However, if they do decide to save themselves, they may not save themselves two nights in a row. They may save other characters twice in a row, if they so wish. They are also not obligated to save anyone if they choose. The doctor must message me who they decide to save. If they decide not to save anyone, they still need to message me so that I don't eliminate them from the game. Once they message me, the doctor goes back to sleep.
The final role to awaken is the seer. The seer has the ability to reveal the role of another character to themselves each night. To do so, the seer needs to message me who they would like to reveal. I will message them back with the answer. If the seer knows the roles of all the remaining players, their turn will be skipped. The seer may choose to reveal the role to everyone the next morning if they so choose. Be aware that this would likely cause them to be the target of the werewolves' next attack, so be wary of what information you release. And not everyone who claims to be the seer is necessarily the seer. This goes for other roles as well, of course.
As the sun rises over the town, the villagefolk take role. I will reveal who is eliminated from the game by the werewolves, and this player will then become a spectator. If the doctor successfully saves the victim of the werewolves' attack, then the victim will not be revealed. The doctor is not allowed to reveal who they save. If the werewolves cannot decide on their target, then this turn will be skipped.
As the villagefolk go about their day, they converse about who they suspect to be the werewolf, and attempt to persuade each other on who to vote for in the upcoming banishment vote. You can make up alibis for your character, form alliances, make enemies, etc. This section of the game is up to the players to decide how much of a roleplay they want it to be. It just depends on what the players want to do. After a set amount of time, or when all the villagefolk are ready, the banishment vote will begin.
As evening falls, the villagefolk gather around the campfire for the nightly banishment. When prompted, each player will vote for who they would like to banish. Be aware; votes are public. Be careful who you vote for. If the case of a tie, the players included in the tie will be given a chance to persuade the villagefolk not to vote for them within a certain world limit. The votes will then be recast. If the tie persists, both players will be banished and eliminated from the game, becoming spectators.
The cycle continues until one of the two teams reach their goal. The respective team will then be crowned the winners of the round. This marks the end of the round. I may create a separate forum for a hall of fame, which will list the winners of each round and their characters.

@SpiritX Accepted! You'll be pinged when the round begins. That's coincidental that you used to host a similar game in your old class; I learned about this game in one of my own classes. We would play it every Friday. It was always super fun, so I thought bringing it to FR would be just as fun!

@LillyJay Accepted! You'll be pinged when the round begins.

Thank you both for joining!

Super excited :DDDD
I used to play it in the last two weeks of our holiday before school broke up, but currently as of right now, I'm in a different school and am too unbothered trying to teach my new idiot friends the rules.
It took me at least 2 entire lunches & breaks to get everybody familiar with the rules & not get 2 doctors, ahem, looking you, Swift

@SpiritX Well, I hope you enjoy playing it (well, a very similar game, anyways) here on FR! I'm hoping that we'll have enough people the start the game today, but we'll just have to wait and see.
