It was years ago when the supposed stories had happened: two sisters had disappeared after a prank gone wrong. One year later the friends had gone back only to find themselves subject to both a psychopathic killer (who turned out to be one among them) as well as supposed beasts known as Wendigos – flying beasts that were once people who had turned into cannibals. According to statements, the friends had blown up the lodge to destroy the beasts inside of it and save themselves, after having lost a few of their friends to the beasts.
The police had never believed their stories about the flying creatures, and had even suspected that the survivors had blown up the lodge to hide evidence of their own crimes. They'd even gone so far to suspect that the survivors had worked as a team to kill the others, and decided to place the blame specifically on one...the one who both had a history of mental illness to back up their claim, and who was no longer with them and could therefore not vouch for themselves.
However, nothing was ever proven, and the surviving friends went on with their lives.
Now, several years later, your family has rebuilt the lodge, not knowing any of the latest history of that area. This week, your parents are out of town, and you and your siblings have decided to throw a party up at the lodge. But like most history out there, even the history of this place may have a way of repeating itself…
But the question is, will you be able to survive until dawn?
The CastFriends: These are the friends that you've invited to party at your place. They're here for a good, wild time that they'll never forget. Unfortunately for them, they might only get the latter if they're not careful. During Team Discussion, they'll decide with everyone else who they believe the bad guys are. When it's time to Split Up, they'll be too busy trying to figure out how to get off of the mountains alive.
Psychopaths: They didn't mean any harm, really. They just wanted to scare you guys with a few harmless pranks...they really didn't mean to get anyone killed. Unfortunately, their pranks have a habit of doing just that. If you meet these guys while you're split up, you'll most likely end up getting killed. During Team Discussion, they'll try to play it off by pretending to be one of the good guys.
Wendigo: The creatures that were supposed to only be a myth, have turned out to be very real indeed. Unlike the Psychopaths, these creatures mean to kill, and relish in doing it whenever they can. If you meet these guys when you're split up, it'll mean certain death. Somehow though, this creature has evolved to be able to shapeshift into a normal looking person when the need arises, so don't expect to see their hideous form during Team Discussion. The Wendigo cannot be killed until all of the Psychopaths have been taken care of.
The Stranger: Unknown to the group, there's a stranger lurking around the mountains, though nobody knows why. All that's known is that he carries a machete and a flamethrower, and that he has a special interest in both the area surrounding the lodge, and the ruins of the destroyed sanitorium. For up to three times when the group is Split up, he can choose to negate all powers. During each Team Discussion, he'll act as one of the friends.
The Lookouts: Gerri Rick, Elliot Weston, and Albert Crusher: These 3 friends have taken it upon themselves to serve as lookouts for the rest. During each Team Discussion, they'll work together with the rest to figure out who the bad guys are. When it's time to Split Up, they'll work to protect their other friends from harm. Each of them can protect one friend each time they split up, but because there are a lot of friends, they won't protect the same one twice in a row. Albert, being the more “macho” of the 3 has taken it upon himself to work alone, therefore he doesn't know that Gerri and Elliot are doing the same, and likewise they don't know that he specifically is helping them. In other words, Gerri and Elliot do not know which player is Albert, and the reverse is also true.
Lauren Tyrius: The bookworm in the group, Lauren has studied both myth and legend as well as psychology. However, her studies are still in the beginning stages. During each time the team is split up, she'll attempt to use her book smarts to point out who the psychopaths and Wendigos are. During each Team Discussion, she'll sit with the friends and try to figure out who the bad guys are.
The Player: You are the main protagonist of this little game. It was by your choice that the friends were invited to this party, not knowing of any of the events that may transpire. But like some of your other friends, you have the chance to be a hero. During each time you're split up, you'll be given a scenario. The right choice may lead to helping your friends in some way, or at least insuring that nothing bad will happen to them for that moment. However, the wrong choice may lead to helping the psychopaths and Wendigo by either throwing a friend into harm's way, or something else just as sinister. You are the sole key to either saving your friends, or getting them all killed. Because you are the protagonist in this modern game, you can never die. However, if you're discovered by the bad guys or accused by most of your friends, your entire state of being may be shattered, and you'll only be able to make scenario decisions throughout the rest of the game. Also, if the bad guys outnumber the good guys, you'll automatically lose the game.
The rules:The bronze rules (Beginner):1) The bad guys win the game if they outnumber the good guys. The good guys win the game if the Wendigo is destroyed. The Stranger will only win if the Wendigo is destroyed.
2) The Lookouts can each protect one person per split up session. They cannot protect the same person twice in a row.
3) Lauren can scan one player each time the team is split up.
4) The friends will make a majority vote during each team discussion. The accused for each night will be the person with the most votes.
5) Normal friends have no special roles for the night, as they're busy searching for clues and ways off the mountains.
6) The game has two phases: Team Discussion, which lasts for 48 hours (72 for the first round), and Split Up, which lasts for 24 hours.
The Silver rules (Normal) - Unlocked7) The Wendigo and Pyschopaths don't know each other.
8 ) Elliot and Gerri know each other, but the two and Albert do not.
9) The Stranger does not know anyone.
The Golden Rules (Hard) – Unlocked10) The friends, bad guys, and other roles cannot disclose roles both in game or in PM.
11) The lookouts cannot defend themselves, but can defend the other person.
12) The friends must choose someone to accuse during each discussion.
13) Those who do not vote for 2 consecutive phases will be killed.
The Diamond Rules (Very Hard) –Unlocked14) Lauren's gift will not work on a defended person.
15) The Negator has 3 chances to negate ALL powers.
16) Pms between players (such as Lauren's scanned friends) MUST be set up by the GM
17) The friends cannot choose to accuse themselves (aka no accusing yourself, only accuse another person) during each discussion
The Player Rules – Unlocked18) The player must make a choice during each scenario: not making a choice is considered a choice, and will affect the outcome.
19) The player cannot die. If they are outed by either side, they will lose voting rights and will be regulated specifically to making scenario decisions.
20) The player will only win the game if the good guys win.
21) Scenario decisions have many effects, ranging from the following: Nothing will happen and the game will continue normally, Lookouts may automatically get a successful defense, Lookouts may lose their defensive power for the session, Lauren may get an extra scan or lose power for the session, the Negator may get an extra power chance or lose a power chance, the Psychopaths or Wendigo get an additional target for the session, or lose their ability for that session.
The Rules of the Dead (Bonus DLC) – Unlocked22) The dead may speak in the thread so long as it's kept to a minimum and in the Split Up phases...as we don't want to disrupt Team Discussion.
23) If a character is killed and wishes to comment (and it is within the limits of the above rule), they must mark their post as
Dead so that players don't get confused and think they're still alive.
24) Dead characters may not reveal anything they have knowledge of (A dead seer knowing who a bad guy is, a dead defender telling their defense choices).
25) As per the rules of the player, they are considered "Dead" if they're outed. However, since they are still an active role behind the scenes, a "dead" player is restricted from speaking in the game. Likewise, they will be removed from the Seer's PM if they were scanned earlier, and will go back to being a purely isolated role.
