Werewolf XLII, Mist in the Barrow Downs

I think 9am CT is winning at the moment because of these nassty European Downers.


Farael, could you please put a questionmark after my name. Playing this game might not work as I have my calender fully booked for the next two weeks after which I'm leaving to Switzerland where I might not be able to play. But because I'd really love to do some wolf-hunting I won't say "no" yet.

"Oooh!"

The fat, lazy cat (that was neither particularly little nor green) that had been lurking by the edges of the crowd suddenly transformed into an evil stepmother, a tall woman with pinned-up black hair, a fancy dark green dress, a sour face, and, most importantly, bony hands with unnaturally long fingers.

"So. What naughty have you done behind my back?" Her gaze swept the crowd, icy-cold. "Arguing about time zones, are you? Asking silly questions? Tearing character sheets to pieces? Bragging about family lines? Uncivilised, shameful kids. As a punishment, you shall all be locked into... into..." She looked around, desperately trying to find some place where she could lock the naughty kids in, but found nothing suitable. "...into hell when you die", she finished, straightening the hem of her gown.

"I am your stepmother, though I dislike the task even more than I dislike you. My name is Anjelica Primadonna Alexandra Lilia Isabella Serafina Victoria Geri Whatever Whatever. You may call me Stepmother, but if you want a shortening for my name it shall be Lily, or Greenie, after the shade of my dress, see." She pointed at her hem.

"Deadlines. Do they mean the time when naughty kids should be home...?"


--------

Both of the deadlines are a little problematic, but I suppose I can cope with them. the 3 PM GMT would be 5 PM in here, so... Well I have lessons until 4.15 every day I think, so I'll be home around 4.45, so I'll have a good fifteen minutes before the deadline. I'd rather have that than the other, though, because it is indeed 4 AM in here and I'm not very intrigued by that option.

So, either way, I probably won't be around at the deadline every Day. Nevertheless I'd vouch for the 3 PM GMT.

And, out of curiosity, what is a DM? Is it something important?

Nothing to worry about, DM = Dungeon Master... the "mod" in pen and paper Role Playing games.

The list so far

Aganzir
Legate
Volo
Nogrod
Lommy
McCaber
Sally
Gwathagor
A Little Green
Shasta?
Volo?

We are getting closer to my (lowest) goal of 12 players. I'd like to clarify one thing though

There is no need to stay in character, nor there is need to be funny in all of your posts. As I said, the "awards" at the end of the game are mostly meaningless, other than a little recognition. However, I remember a time when Werewolf was fun to play throughout, not just fun to play in those last exciting moments when the game comes down the line. I'm doing my best to make it a little more fun Farael style.

Finally, it looks like you bunch of Europeans are going to rule over us North Americans with regards to the deadline. However North Americans do not despair! It is not the end of the world if a few of us are not around for the deadline.

Farael was frowning. "Hey, Misty where was the fun on your last post?"

-"If you must know, I am not your personal clown Master Farael"
-"But you said"
-I KNOW WHAT I SAID!
-"Hey, cool, how do you do that voice?" Said the old man
-"... Something tells me you are not long for this word" Answered the voice
-"What?"

A sigh was heard, and then the unthinkable happened. A giant, green hand materialized from the mist and smacked Farael on the back of the head.

Ah well some Dungeons and Dragons thingy, then? I'm used to the term Game Master (or is that actually a term at all...?) but I suppose they are the same. Sorry for the confusion.

[Farael]

I think there has been a misconception I'd like to clarify

Players are encouraged but by no means forced to post in character

If you want to play and not post IC for more than a (game) day, be my guest! Or my player for that matter

[Nerwen]

A tall, gaunt figure wandered through the mist. A barrow-wight? No! A sudden thinning of the fog revealed a pale, thin face that might have that of an Elf– if not for the pointy nose.

"Hello..." Nerwen called in despairing tones, "Is there anyone out there?"

[Thinlómien]

A Little Green,

I use the term GM instead of DM. You can use it too and then we can fight those heretics!

Secondly, if school ends at 4.15 and the deadline is 5, why not spend jolly 45 minutes in the school library playing werewolf? That's what I'm going to do, at any rate...
