Welcome to Werewolf: Red Riding Hood!
I know some of you may be aware of Werewolf and the similarities/differences between Werewolf and Mafia games. Some of you may be new to Mafia as well as to Werewolf. While
I won't be revealing which roles are or are not in the game, I wanted to provide a bit of a guideline for you.
The basic premise of Werewolf is: Werewolves eat Villagers. If the Villagers can get rid of the entire Werewolf team, they win the game. If the Werewolves can achieve parity (be equal in number) to the Villager Team, they win the game.
Here is one source for roles, some basic, some not so basic:

I have done my best to provide a balance of roles. That being said, you may or may not like your role. Please understand all roles have been randomized and each role is important in its own way. Your participation is appreciated by your team.
If you have any questions, or if you notice an error, please notify me via PM. If I have made an error, I will do my best to rectify it, if possible. Thank you for your patience!
Please familiarize yourself with the following rules. Breaking a rule may result in being mod-killed* based on the effect the rule-break has upon the game, the perceived intent of the rule-breaker, etc. This is up to my discretion. (Just don't break the rules!!!)
RULES
1. Do not edit your posts!
2. Do not directly quote me! You are allowed to paraphrase but do not quote anything game-related or role-related from me! This includes text, pictures, etc. Don't try to find a loophole. If you have questions, ask! If you're not sure, don't do it!
3. You are allowed to claim your role but not your character. If you have any questions about the difference, ask!
4. Do not talk to other players outside of the game threads (living or dead) about the game unless permitted by your role.
5. Flavor is flavor - don't read into it.
6. Play to your win condition!
7. Plurality will be in effect unless otherwise noted at the beginning of each Day phase. The definition of plurality: the number of votes cast for a candidate who receives more than any other but does not receive an absolute majority. This means, if there is no majority reached by the deadline, the person with the most votes will be lynched.
8. End of day lynch results may change subject to roles - that's all I'm going to say so don't ask about it; however, if you do think my vote totals are incorrect, let me know and I'll check into it.
9. You will be given a specific deadline for the end of each day. I will do my best to be here to lock threads but, if I'm not, PLEASE Do not post after the deadline or if majority has been reached!
10. In order for your vote to count: please use ##Lynch: [player name] in order to vote for a player or ##Unlynch to un-vote.
11. Ties will be broken by sudden death. The next person to vote for a person who is locked in the tie (or a current voter unlynches) will break the tie.
12. Each Day phase will last 24 hours. Night phases may be a bit short of 24 hours in order to keep the start times from getting later and later. I will generally aim for a 9pm start time. All times are Eastern Daylight Time (and will change to Eastern Standard Time if the game lasts that long)!
*If a mod-kill ever occurs it will normally not disrupt the day phase and the game will continue until deadline or hammer.
