No.

As Caranlondien has indicated, no werebears, cobblers, or shirriffs. Actually, my reason for multiple kills had little to do with werebears and cobblers. I really had already decided against them early on, and don't know why I opened the door to them again. The real reason was that with 30 players, I needed to have either multiple lynchings are some kind of accelerated means of deaths, or this game could take a verrrrrry looooong time. So I hit upon the multiple kills per so many werewolves idea, and it works.

When any gifted is killed, that gifted can be replaced by the good wizard ... the very next Night.

I was rolling dice, except where obvious strategy decisions presented themselves ... such as the good wizard revealing known innocents as soon as they were useful, at least once the good wizard's identity was known. And the evil wizard wanting to stay hidden. and the good wizard wanting to battle the evil wizard as soon as possible to end the multiplication of werewolves.

You're on the list, Azaelia. I need a relationship and an occupation.

EDIT: Feanor, your post was so short I almost missed it. You're in.

I'd like to be a suspicious shepherdess with a love of alliteration, if you don't mind. I suppose I can also be young and somewhat eligible, though rumors abound about that young smith that's been seen around.

I have a question -- not about the game, but rather about the relationships. Since it's medieval, are the eligible young things supposed to live at home with parents, like in a traditional medieval setting, or are you taking liberties with that? I just noted that there are more eligible young'uns than mothers, which seems odd, unless Roa and her husband have been quite prolific.

At home with mums and dads. I may have to ask some of the young eligible's to reconsider. Seeing as there are more women than men in the game so far (still at least 10 slots available), we may have to consider the possibility of young wives whose men are sailors gone to sea for months, no knowing when they'll return ... or widows whose husbands have been lost at sea. But we'll leave that decision for later unless somebody really wants to jump at these possibilities....

We'll call my husband lost at sea then. I'll be a re-eligible, yet somewhat creepy, widowed shepherdess.

Better?

This village needs an arrogant healer. Does anyone know a Barrow-Downer who has experience in that role?

I don't mind changing my status. Feel free to marry me off (or make me a child) if it helps the balance.

Its quite obvious I'm the best healer here despite the fact that I'm not a healer.

Well still we only have one mother -- LMP you can make me a mother if it helps. I'll be an older mother of one (or more) of the eligible maidens -- married or widowed as the population of available husbands dictates. Unless that is you really want me to be childess.
