Crikey! And welcome to sign ups. Hopefully we can all have fun and get along, unlike these birds:
Hoping to run this after the completion of Zell's game, pending getting the list of Night 1 allowed actions and Nightly action order confirmed. This will be my first time hosting a game of my own making so I apologise in advance for any balance issues etc but hopefully we can have fun. There will be stories and as GM I will be attempting my best Steve Irwin impression.
Rules:
Ideally 16 players. For the first game this will break down as 10 prey, 4 predators and both the solo roles
Team Prey:
Role: Kangaroo
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: Can't remember the Joey's name. However is desperately trying to find it. At night can nominate a player to check. If that player is the Joey they will be reunited via DM, if the player isn't the Joey the Kangaroo will receive no further info and must keep searching.
Role: White Ibis
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: At night, can nominate one player they wish to see the animal instinct of that player. As noted in the role descriptions not all animals on the Prey team present as such when the Ibis uses their animal instincts.
Role: Kookaburra
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: All seeing, always laughing. The Kookaburra loves nothing more than having fun at others expense. Can nominate one player to have their role revealed publicly on the Kookaburra's death. Nominated via PM and can be changed at any point.
Role: Platypus
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: Is the only player able to stop the Great White Shark's blood sense. Once per game may nominate to clean the waters, they do so via DM and must successfully pick a member of the predator team. Example: I choose to clean the waters and nominate XXX as a predator. If succesful the water will be cleaned, the town will also be notified that the clean was successful. If unsuccessful the platypus may no longer take part in lynch votes.
Role: Magpie
Animal Instincts: Unknown
Description: Magpies swoop and boy are they pricks. No one knows whether they are evil or not. Each night is able to swoop a player, that player is now injured. If a player is swooped for a second time they are now dead. Can not swoop the Joey, the Kookaburra or the Box Jellyfish.
Role: Joey
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: No powers, however knows which player has the Kangaroo role as it's mother.
Role: Wombat
Animal Instincts: Prey

If succesful in defending a target the wombat will be informed of the role, but not player, that attacked (in the case of the predator vote they will be informed as such). Once twice successful in defending a player the wombat becomes powerless prey. Protects against all night attacks.
Role: Koala
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: While being cute and cuddly they are often infested with chlamydia. The koala can scratch a player with its claws during the day in an attempt to give it chlamydia. Their role will be announced to everyone when used as use requires a post in thread of "XXXX scratches YYYY" if the player scratches a Predator or Solitary Animal that player dies, if the target is on the Prey team the Koala is culled.
Role: Possum
Animal Instincts: Prey
