The eighteen years since the calamitous events that took place in Jonathan Valley have been mostly peaceful with no wolf activity what so ever, a small number of fruitless witch hunts served both to put to rest the citizens fears of the wolfs return and to flex the town’s defences against such events in the future. People went about there business, survivors went on to live happy safe and have children who were just coming of age. All was well on the streets of Jonathan Valley.

Yet unbeknownst to the villagers twins had been born eighteen years ago, the child had been passed from orphanage to orphanage, shunned for it’s keen sense of smell and unusually thick body hair. The children knew of their heritage and spent most of their time formulating their plan to exact revenge on the decedents of the village, they grew mad and cunning in their isolation, fitting into general society only by their pure hunger for revenge.

The twins are at the height of their powers, the long line of wolves lending their best traits to the cubs and ensuring their success where they failed. Not much is certain in Jonathan Valley only that is the wolves reach the first full moon after their eighteenth birthday they will be unstoppable.

As the twins learn to hunt and practice their new powers on the homeless and undesirables of the town they get careless and evidence is found, whispers spread of a new generation of wolves and the doom they will bring. The villages retreat at night to behind closed doors, marked off with a cross of penguin blood in a futile attempt to repel the invading wolves.

In response to the hysteria the citizens call to the near-by city of Stroud Pass for aid, they send their feared high inquisitor, above every law but his own the high inquisitor lives only to hunt wolves, such is his duty that the citizens cannot know his true identity and can only guess at the identity of the legend.


Characters:

2 Wolves: Choose your meal every night and hope that you live past the Wolf Hunt Tribunal the next day

1 Resistance member: Each turn use your powers to gaze past the physical form to the true twisted nature of one citizen, use this gift wisely as you will surely be a target of the wolves

1 Grand Inquisitor: Choose one person to investigate every second round in a blood filled attempt to kill the wolf. Note: once you investigate someone you must kill them for they know your identity.

_ Citizens: pray you can lynch the wolves before they reach adulthood and you all lie dead, also beware the attention of the inquisitor, in times such as these friend and foe are blurred lines drawn in blood.

1. Queezle - Her name doesn't come from anywhere, I don't think. I just made it up! It was kind of meant to make her sound nice. I feel a bit sorry that I killed her off so fast; she is an interesting character.

It's "fo' sho," I think.

I think each game should start with the wolves murdering the showrunner. It'd be a neat segue.

I sent RCB a message in facebook. He doesn't come here regularly, but he is there always. And he didn't play last game.
And Gladstone would most probably join too.
