Scratch that. Anyone attacks the cucco and they go rampage mode and kill a random player on the team of the person (or people) who attacked.

Gonna just make and run my own Zelda-themed wolf clone with all the least toxic roles ever

"Hey, listen!"

"Hey, listen!"

We found the seer role.

Question for people who have run these wolf games: How did the evolution of the choice of roles come about? Are there versions of wolf that people have put together as being particularly "good" or is this basically built from scratch

The ones Zell run came from a game that's played online quite a bit and was the result of years of playing and adding more intrigue.

But they can be as simple as only wolves and town. But it gets more creative as different powers show up. The obvious roles are ones like seers of various sorts and people with kill shots. But if you can think of some other power that might be interesting, it's always fun to try.

@Zell 17 this seems like a cross between beast hunter and avenger right? They don't actually protect themselves but they don't choose who to kill, it's just someone who was allied with the attacker? That could be a fun role. Wolves try to trick the town into killing them while also trying to avoid them.

Edit: if they're lynched one of the people who voted for them is randomly picked.

I thought I'd do a lol and bust out some funny roles, but it actually turned into an entire thing...

Suggestions;

Villager Team

1. Link (Hunter): Can eliminate a player at any time, night or day, once per game.
2. Zelda (Doctor): Protects one player each night from elimination by any source.
3. Impa (Seer): Identifies alignment to tell if a player is on the side of good or evil each night.
4. Navi (Messenger): Can send secret messages to any one player each night. Knows who Epona is from the start.
5. Sheik (Harlot): Visits players at night with varying outcomes; If a villain, Sheik survives any attacks against them that night. If a target, Sheik dies too.
6. Cucco (Avenger): If eliminated by any means a random member of the murdering party will also die.
7. Great Fairy (Guardian Angel): Each night, can grant a player a one-time use protection to use during a following night phase.
8. Epona (Messenger's Assistant): While Epona is alive, Navi can talk to two players per night. Epona does not know Navi's identity.
9. Tetra (Bodyguard): Chooses a player to guard each night, protecting them from elimination.
10. The Deku Tree (Elder): Survives the first attack or elimination vote against them, but their role is revealed to the village.
11. Saria (Spirit Medium): Communicates with eliminated players/bored spirits.
12. Deku Tree Sprout (Oracle): Can reveal once if a specific role is still in the game. Can be used night or day.
13. Tingle (Fool): Wholly believes they are Impa. Receives incorrect or misleading information each night.
14. Mido (Villager): A regular villager with no special abilities.

Villain Team

1. Ganondorf (Werewolf): Can vote. Has overruling vote on which player to eliminate each night.
2. Dark Link (Alpha Werewolf): Can vote. Survives the first attempt against their life.
3. ReDead (Silencer): Cannot vote. Each night, silences a player for 18 hours during the next day phase.
4. Ghirahim (Sorcerer): Can vote. Seeks the Seer. Each night tries to identify Impa. If they guess correctly, Impa is eliminated.
5. Twinrova (Witch): Can vote. Has one-time abilities to save and eliminate a player.

Misc Team

1. Groose (Jester): Aims to get himself eliminated by any means after night 2. Must survive until then. Game doesn't end.
2. Skull Kid (Trickster): Swaps the roles of two players once in the game. Wins if both those players are eliminated by any means. Game doesn't end.
3. Vaati (Minion): Knows who the villains are, but has no special abilities and is not part of the villain chat. Wins if they're among the last villagers alive when the wolves outnumber them. Game would naturally end.

The true secret is that my time to do this and my time to do adult work overlap... Don't tell my boss.

Anyway, more specifically don't have the appetite for more of this brand of Wolf.

I'll eventually play/run something else though, we good.

Should talk of another game be tossed into post your game ideas instead of Zell's sign up thread?

I was thinking about this a few minutes prior, so since you said it too, yes. I did that.
