Wakey wakey, my fragile mortal guests! It’s nearly time for you to start stabbing one another again.
(opens pantry door; Santa Claus falls out, limply, covered in bloody claw and bite marks)
Lamb // Santa Claus has died. He was town and the alignment cop.
“You know who has been bad or good. Each night, you target a player to learn their alignment (but not their role).”
Ah! Seems our werewolf friends have continued the party while I was away. Very good.
Well well, now that we are all fully aware of the situation, I no longer have to be so secretive. I’ve brought you all here because the Powers That Be delight in meaningless bloodshed. They require it. They appear in naught but the nightmares of Their Chosen and speak in naught but eldritch tongues. They watch us, like an audience watching a play, but little do we know They write the script and They direct the action and They already know how each one of our stories will end. And tonight, They want nothing more than pain and violence and terror and …
Aha! Oh gosh the looks on your faces! No, there aren’t any eldritch abominations taunting us, it’s just us. Well, more precisely, me. I’m just a weird guy living a spooky castle in the deep dark woods where the weather is always foggy for some reason. Of course I’m just pitting you against one another for my own enjoyment!
So let’s go, keep up with all that murder. Here, there are plenty of well sharpened knives in the kitchen. Go crazy! Stab stab stab!

RULES
— At twilight, the player with the most votes will be day killed. In the event of a tie the tied player who was the last to cast their first vote of the day will be day killed (so you risk losing ties if you wait forever to vote!). Only votes for living players will count towards this tiebreaker (ie, “no kill” votes will not be counted).
— Generally speaking, players with night actions cannot target the same player twice in a row (even if the first try was unsuccessful), and cannot target themselves. The wolf kill is assigned, and the same wolf cannot make the kill two nights in a row until one wolf remains.
— Night actions will work in this order:
1) (passive abilities are always in effect)
2) Jail/roleblock (or similar actions)
3) Most night actions
4) Night kills
5) Investigations (or similar actions)
— If an ability affects anyone who targets the player with the ability, then it is unaffected by jailing or roleblocking. That is, a passive or reflexive ability cannot be stopped by jailing or roleblocking.
— Questions can be asked in Discord or via the open thread.
— No editing posts. No quoting DMs unless otherwise instructed. No game talk after twilight. Respect your fellow players and be accommodating and understanding of other play styles. Failure to abide by any of these rules could result in a modkilling.
Twilight is 3pm Central time (4pm Eastern, 1pm Pacific) on Thursday 10/31.
