The essential problem with this plan is it sort of distracts both sides from the focus of the game to the Gifteds-who should ideally be adornments, not ends in themselves.

But it could be fun.

I would suggest that the Cynic should not know the identity of the wolves (it's dark and they're transformed during their dealings). This means he'll have to work through the mod-a tad exhausting-but otherwise he'll just have too much power concentrated in his devious hands.
Nice names, Ang.
I agree with the identity thing; a cobbler doesn't know the wolves either.

I got a new idea, which is a role called whore in the RL version, but we could maybe call it poisoner instead. I don't know if there's been any games with a similar role.

The poisoner is a bit like werebear, a lone killer. But he kills with delay. The poison doesn't affect very fast; it kills the victim next night after poisoning, not immediatly. Ranger can protect people from poisoner, though ranger should probably be called "healer" or "doctor" in this game, since I think he should be able to cure the poisoned both on the night of the poisoning and on the night he or she would die.
