The rest of the game is based on skill, deduction and intrigue. The Cursed is based on chance. That just plain sucks. For the majority of the time the Cursed doesn't even do anything... it just strikes me as a little rubbish. I'd support the cursed perhaps knowing they were cursed, so that they want to be lynched rather than killed by wolves, or some such thing. Alternatively, they could be replaced by the Cobbler, Bear or other such interesting element.

Rant over.
It seems that this would just be a powered up Cobbler with even more venom so to speak. I realize that not all cursed would want to be killed by the wolves but a good amount would. I like the fact that nobody knows who they are it keeps one guessing and the village has to keep that element in mind when deciding things. There needs to be some chance to this game.
