[You are inside what looks like a cross between a traditional Japanese mansion and an European manor house, at the end of a long dinner table, opposite a banner with a glyph on it.

In front of you, there's some food, and four place settings. Although the appearance is slightly off, it smells like...Chinese food?]

...free food!!!

[hisstrionical.livejournal.com]

It's good, right? It smells good!

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

This is great!

[leaning out, clearing his throat a little] --Ah, good, you're both here.

[hisstrionical.livejournal.com]

Yeah? What is this, huh?

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

[clears his throat, checking some papers he has]

Ah, well--for the purposes of this game, we've assigned two special roles alongside the sheep and the wolves: that of the Ghost and that of the Wars. Just like the Wars aids the wolves, the Ghost will aid the sheep--anonymously.

[hisstrionical.livejournal.com]

— so we're good guys! ... Right?

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

Yes, we're good guys.

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

That's right.

At one point in the game, you'll be able to reveal a wolf's identity to one sheep. At the time of your choosing, make the request, and the shepherds will tell you one wolf's name to reveal. However, the Wars will be able to give the wolves an alibi at one point in time, so you'll have to be careful about when and where you want to make that revelation.

[hisstrionical.livejournal.com]

Huhh ...

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

You'll have to do it anonymously, as well--we've prepared an email address you may use, when you're ready.

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

What do you mean an alibi?

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

At one point, if a wolf is under suspicion, a Wars can give them evidence that they can present to look innocent.

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

But they can't cancel out a vote.

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

No, they can't. Their ability is designed to counteract yours, if it plays out that way.

[hisstrionical.livejournal.com]

But hey. Hey. Could the Wars-thingy give them evidence for a different wolf? A wolf that wasn't revealed to us?

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

They could, yes. Their goal is for the wolves to win, just like yours is for the sheep.

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

But we only have once chance whenever we decide?

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Both of the special teams will have one shot to swing the game in their favor--it will depend on when you make your choice, versus when they make theirs.

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

And we can be voted out and lose our chance.

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

Just like they could be voted out and lose theirs.

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

Understood.






C-can I have the food, Hakuren-san?

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

You're both free to help yourselves.

[follow-3-steps.livejournal.com]

*...ohmnomnom*

So uhm. The Wars win if the Wolves win?

[a-holy-oak.livejournal.com]

Exactly. And you win with the sheep.
