Day 4
Marty Canoon bled out like a stuck pig
as Larry Dowlon stood over him, waiting
for any indication he might suddenly transform
into the hideous form of a werewolf.
However, Canoon simply lay there and
after everyone was convinced there would
be no supernatural transformation, they
quickly removed the roast pig from the fire
and set about their feast.
***
In the midst of their revelry, and perhaps
having had a little too much to drink, they
simply forgot about Marty and left him there
on the beach while the fire faded and died out.
Late that night, a pack of stray dogs
found his body and began their own feast.
They left little but bones, and after
they departed, a group of stray cats
wandered over to lick the bones clean.
All night long, various beasts
picked at Canoon's bones.
Even a passing Bay City river shark
found a tasty bone on which to munch.
***
The next morning, Larry Dowlon
returned to the scene and discovered
the tattered skeleton.
Looking down, he spotted something
he did not expect to find.
"Well that's interesting," he remarked
to himself as he pocketed the
small bejeweled item.
***
"Good morning, everyone," Dowlon
greeted in the church.
"Good morning," they all said in unison.
"You all seem bright eyed and cheery!
You must have slept well last night."
"I had the craziest dream!" Sam said.
"Oh, do tell!" encouraged Ivanna.
"Well, I dreamt that I was a
chicken who was trying to fly
away from a butcher who was
chasing after me from inside a
very large, locked safety deposit box."
"Wow, what do you think that means?"
"That he's just as crazy as
Harold over there," said Julia.
"Ok, then," Dowlon interrupted.
"Back to Marty... does anyone know
what this is?"
He held up the item he'd found that morning.
At first, no one said a word.
Finally, Sam spoke up, "The entirety of
your grandmother's inheritance she left you?"
"Hah! no, Sam. It's actually
far more valuable than that." Dowlon
explained. "This," he went on,
"is a symbol carried by some members of
the Coscarat clan. In other words,
Marty Canoon was mafia."
Everyone gasped.
"Yes, it seems that Marty was not
a werewolf, but perhaps just as dangerous."

- Each player will be given a character to play who will be aligned with either the Town, the Werewolves, or niether. Town wins when all threats to the town have been eliminated and there is at least one town player alive. The werewolves win when they obtain a majority or nothing can prevent this from occurring. Any other party characters will have their own win conditions outlined in their roles.
- Each day you will vote to lynch a player. Voting should be done in the following format: Vote: Character (Forum Handle). Similarly, unvoting is to be done in the format: Unvote: Character (Forum Handle). No other format will be accepted. You may unvote and revote as many times as you like. Players must receive at least 50% of the votes to be lynched. If there is a tie, then no lynch will occur. Failing to post in the day thread will result in a vote penalty the following day equal to the remaining number of players divided by 4.
- A game day will last approximately 5 days. You may not vote in the first 24 hours. The day will end at the appointed time, unless the group are decided on a lynch and the moderator decides to end it early. After the day has concluded, a night stage will commence, which will last a maximum of 48 hours. Night actions must be sent to the host in the first 24 hours of the night stage. They will not be accepted after this deadline has passed.
- The alignment of lynched players, as well as those that died during the night will be revealed at the beginning of the next day.
- You may not quote or pretend to quote anything sent to you via PM, either by the host or another player. This includes all the details of your character and role, as well as any night action results. Role claims and reporting of night action results are acceptable, but in your own words only. Do not attempt to use the structure of your role PM to your advantage. Similarly, conversations held in private may be discussed in your own words.
- Game tactics and roles may only be discussed in the game thread, via PM with other players, and through means designated by the host. Do not play the game elsewhere or post in old day threads.

- If you are dead, you may not post in thread or discuss the game with any of the players. Any information you had becomes void, and may not be passed on.
- You may not edit your posts. Editing a post will result in a vote penalty the same day, equal to the number of remaining players divided by 4.
