Okay. Going through yesterDay:

The first ones to speak were Kath and xyzzy. Xyzzy is dead and innocent. Kath now is not, and I don't know how to feel about her. It might be xyzzy was right, or might be that Kath is just an innocent. Even from ToDay's posts I can't say anything that will sway my opinion on her more to the "good" or the "bad". She voted Durelin yesterDay, but if my theory is correct and the death of Durelin was indeed just simply "triggered", Kath didn't have necessarily to have any active part in it. Of course then, Durelin might just have targeted Kath with her nightly activity because of that (or partially because of that), but she might have targeted also someone else for another reason. The problem is, we don't know what exactly Durelin's ability was, though the most logical to me now seems that she had something like stealing other peoples' roles, but if she wanted to steal a Wolf's role, she instead was killed (it will be logical: you can steal e.g. a sword from a Ranger and so become a Ranger yourself, but you can't steal "wolvishness" from a wolf). I don't know if this leads anywhere, but again, if I'm correct, then I'd suppose Durelin targeted someone who seemed "interesting" to her and possible a Gifted, but lo, he turned to be a Wolf. It could have been as well Menel. But once again, this is pure speculation from my part and too many assumptions. The biggest problem is definitely, as someone mentioned here, that Durelin didn't say almost anything yesterDay. Had she spoken more, we could've used it.

Others who have joined the discussion later, were Shasta, of whom I am ambivalent pretty much similar as with Kath.
Rune is dead and innocent.
Noggins... well, as what I said before about his sneakiness, at the end of yesterDay and particularly his vote for Menel speaks somewhat better of him, as well as what he said toDay. His stances in the starting discussion were with Menel, but his later behavior seems better. I'm still not sure about him, but I feel better about him now.
The next to join in the discussion was Rikae. She has been suspected by Kath, but personally, I don't see anything wolfish on her. Her discussion with Boro was quite a "normal" starting discussion, and it felt quite Rikae-ish. For this, I'm leaving her be for now.
About Boro I feel quite good because of how he went against Menel right here on the start. I also wouldn't say he'd be a Werebear if we have one, since he was the first one to mention the possibility of having a Bear. Of course then, if we had two Wolf teams, his going after Menel will be something else (if they were opposite teams) and the Bear idea will be leading tracks away. But again, based on the narration I don't think two wolf teams are probable (only if it were some sort of competition between two teams of Dol Guldur to get the favor of Sauron or something like that). So I'm leaving Boro be as well.
Isabellkya seemed quite sinister from the very beginning. Her quasixyzzy (now spell this, Kath ) behavior could have been expected, but I spoke about her absences yesterDay. Also, it's nice how she appeared in the right moment to save Menel. Though it might have been unintentional, it surely casts not much nice light on her.

Huh. It's quite a lot of it for now, so I'm ending here. I'll be back yet, but later.
