Well, I've started on a quiz, but I need some input- what avriables are important in a game of Werewolf, and for what roles?

I can test up to four variables (but that's really complicated), so what should be in there? Cunning? Intellect? What adjective describes the ability to stay unsuspected? Or avoid getting lynched? What about decding who to dream of, or protect, or kill?

Opinions?

Well, matters of thought process such as intuition vs. logic should be addressed in some way. Also, the tendency to remain quiet or be outspoken. Sneaky vs. bold. Team mentality vs. lonerism. Bloodlust vs. a peace-loving villager mentality.

Oops, I guess I should have said something. I started one also, but quickly ran out of relavent questions (for only playing two games, thats still... optimistic). I had Cunning, Debating ablity, and Covertness as the varibles, though it kind of gets complicated figuring out if a wolf has to be more covert compared to a seer. Theres a lot of opinion there, in my opinion. *hooks thumbs on suspender straps*

I'm a pack member. Totally average in every way.

52 mental strength? I'm sorry but how did you judge that? I feel somewhat offended.

Well Eomer I was only a 47% mental case, I mean, mental strength. So at least you're not at the bottom of the pack.

Okay, I'm actually going to leave Mental strength/ intelligence off the quality list. Honestly, to be a good at anything in werewolf, even a villager, high intelligence and mental strength must be assumed.

So far I have Cunning, which means:

1. Marked by or given to artful subtlety and deceptiveness.
2. Executed with or exhibiting ingenuity

And Discernment, which means:

1. The act or process of exhibiting keen insight and good judgment.
2. Keenness of insight and judgment.

What's a third one? And then, what roles require which traits?
