Bearbeiten von „Werwolf English Version“

It's a game for larger groups of 8-48 players getting to know each other, killing, discussions, hanging, becoming paranoid and trying to manipulate. The game is constantly growing and changing, and so are the rules.

; Day phase : In the "morning", everybody wakes up. The GM reveals who died at night. "Dead" players are not allowed to participate any more, they are out of the game. They are allowed to watch, even at night, if they don't interrupt the game. The surviving players will start a discussion about who acted suspiciously and who was heard moving throughout the night. At this point, it can become chaotic quickly. Players accuse each other, wolves try to appear innocent or blame villagers. Often, people that are very active, are perceived as wolves (trying to shift blame from themselves to others). People, that are particularly quiet (to not stand out to much) or even people in-between (as they try to appear not being to active or too passive) are also accused. To put it another way: it is hard to wrap your head around. In the end, the players have to agree one someone to be "hung" (usually by voting on it). That person dies and night starts immediately.

; Villager: Just "normal" players. Their influence on the game is limited to the day phase and is described above. In short: They are killed by the wolves one by one and they may hang each other. Well. They would rather kill the wolves to win the game.

; Jason : Jason wants to be hung. They win (and end the game prematurely), if they are hung by the villagers.

:* History and impact on the game: This role was developed at a KIF conference. Jason is a suicidal villager who wants to die by hanging. They try to act like a wolf (but not by being to obvious, otherwise it won't work). Often, werewolves try to act like Jason. The Jason card and the real Jason are both a great source for first-class confusion, chaos and disorder. They are considered a serious danger to any mental health you might have. Rumours are that the "real Jason" always died in the first round. Others say he just wanted to get a beer and get the dying done already.

:* Impact: Players rarely want to kill the people next to them any more. Will decrease consensus about hanging and almost thievish pleasure for the terrorist if they are hung (yes, even if that means they loose the game!). Also, the game duration is shortened slightly, which makes this a perfect role for larger groups.

:* History: Sascha was one of the players that always got hung very early. That's were the idea originated to give him the task to survive as long as possible :)

; Town fool: One-Time save from being hung by the villagers.

:* GM reveals the card when the player is about to be hung.

=== Roles only called during the first night ===

; Guarding Angel: Awakes at the beginning of each night (after the Sandman) and chooses a player (incluing themselves) to protect from the wolves. If that player is killed by the wolves, they do not die. However, the Guardian Angel may not choose the same player twice in a row.

; Succubus: Plays on the wolves' side. Gets to know if a player they choose has a special role or if they are a normal villager).

:* The seer's counterpart for the wolves.

; Wolves (+Succubus): Silently choose a victim to be eaten. The GM remembers the victim and tells the village in the morning that they died (except when other roles change the outcome). There is a Wolf in sheep's clothing that can not be detected by the seer.

; Vampire: Vampires are an additional party in the game. They select one of themselves every night. This Vampire bites another player. The bitten player has now two roles: Vampire and their original one. The GM informs them that they are now a Vampire by touching them. Also, the GM points out which Vampire transformed them. This is now their "Elder". If a Vampire dies from any cause, any players he bit also die. The Vampires win the game if only Vampires are left.

:* Will start a chain reaction of sudden deaths. Will shorten the game when playing in bigger groups.

; Witch: The GM tells them who will be killed by the wolves. They can then use a healing potion and/or a poisonous potion on a player of their choosing. In every game, they only have one of each kind.

; Druid: Points at a player to dose their breakfast (not the same player twice in a row!). If this player is hung, the GM tells the players that their chosen victim was dosed with a magic potion and in the brawl another player was hung. The new victim is chosen by the dosed player.

; Sheriff: Points at a player to put them into jail (not the same player twice in a row!). The prisoner is announced by the GM in the morning and is blocked from active participation for one day and night. They are not allowed to speak or communicate with their body to the other players. They may not vote or use their role. The GM will call the role as usual, with no result.  

:* The prisoner can not be eaten by the wolves, but the village can storm the jail to hang them.

:* If the last wolf is in jail, the GM has to take care not to let the village know. However, if nobody dies at night, some villagers may notice what happened...

; Seer: Points at a player. The GM shows the seer the player's card.

:*Alternatively: Only gets the information if that player is on the villagers' side.

Everything else (choice of and adding additional roles, update of the rules above) is for the Game Master to decide.
