Would the two lovers be able to communicate? At first I thought if one dies the other should live but on second thought it might not be a good idea. The reason being the innocent lover would know who the wolves are and could give them up upon her loves death. It would be a fun yet difficult role to play especially for the wolf lover.
Yes they would be. It will be hard enough to come up with a strategy as it is, so I suppose they should - like the Shiriffs - be able to communicate during Day phases. So Morm has it right - if the non wolf lover would survive after the wolf lover's death, the game would be instantly over.

I think the idea would be interesting to try. Of course, it should be in a village that has a roughly equal number of male and female players so that the identity of one of the Lovers is not too obvious. The alternative, of course, is to ignore gender in that scenario, but I am really not in favor of doing so.
Well, I'm not making any promises. But I guess I agree.

Cailin--could the non-wolf lover also be Gifted? (Not the Seer, since the lover would already be aware of the wolves' identity, but the idea of a Hunter or Ranger who's treacherous is intriguing.)
I thought it would be better for the non-wolf to be an ordinary, otherwise I think it could seriously unbalance the game. A Ranger Lover would be far too powerful and a Hunter Lover quite useless - the Lovers are one team and when they die, they should not really care who eventually wins.

Good to see some people like the idea!
