Octopus Overlords

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (WW Game)
A small werewolf game about schoolchildren murdering each other.

The Great Pumpkin Rulez

8 player game

Team Evil


The Great Pumpkin
You are the most unholy of monsters. You drink your victim's blood then vomit it back up onto their mutilated corpses defiling them in unimaginable ways.

Once per game and only at night, the Great Pumpkin can perform a ritual blood sacrifice. The sacrifice involves the killing of his prophet, Linus, and another child. The targeted child is instantly killed (Pig Pen's protection does not protect the targeted child). Also, if Pig Pen was protecting that targeted child, he will die as well. (Potential for a triple night kill) However, if the targeted is Lucy, she foils the ritual (Linus still dies) and escapes however she does not learn the identity of the Great Pumpkin. If Linus is dead, the Great Pumpkin can not perform the ritual blood sacrifice.

Linus and the Great Pumpkin both know each other's identity.


Linus Van Pelt
You believe in the great pumpkin more than anyone else and want to see it's ascension into Godhood.

Linus and the Great Pumpkin both know each other's identity.

If Lucy scans Linus, then Linus (enraged that his judgement sister is attempting to stop the Great Pumpkin) will murder Lucy to prevent her from learning the truth about the Great Pumpkin. Linus counts on the Not Evil Team for victory conditions.

Team Not Evil


Charlie Brown
Good Ole Charlie Brown. Everyone treats you like crap and nothing goes right. You wish for death daily.

Special Power - Charlie Brown's power is secret.


Lucy van Pelt
Judgmental b*tch.

Special Power - Lucy has pyschological training so each night she can analyze the mental state of a player and determine the player's role.


Pig Pen
Dirty player.

Special Power: Pig Pen can sleep over at one kid's house each night. However, he can only choose each child once because they never want that stinky guy over again. If the Great Pumpkin attacks, Pig Pen's stench keeps him away. This power does not protect Pig Pen himself.

Victory Conditions:

Team Evil - Team Evil wins when there is only one not evil player left.

Team Not Evil - Team Not Evil wins when the Great Pumpkin is dead.

Miscellaneous:

There is no secret forum. Team Evil players may not PM each other.

The game will begin at NIGHT.

There will be no time limit for day votes however if the game drags the mod may make 'something' happen.

Specials CAN preemptively send in their actions during the daytime for the following night. Specials are allowed to change preemptive actions unless it has already been resolved.

Turn order during the night:

Lucy scans;
Pig Pen protects;
Great Pumpkin attacks.

It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown - Intro Only

I'm so in.

In

Looks amazing, I'm in.

Awesome guys. Tell your friends>

Oh, good grief. I'm in.

I see what you did there Blockhead!

Haven't done a game in a while, and this seems sufficiently silly, so I'm in.

Also, just to confirm - if Lucy scans Linus, then Linus kills Lucy, not vice versa, right? So that she doesn't learn "the true" about the Great Pumpkin?

Yes, it has been a while.

Thanks. I cleaned it up a little. Yes, if Lucy scans Linus he will take the opportunity to kill her to prevent her from outing his unholy master.

Ha!

Does Linus know who the great pumpkin is?
If Lucy scans Linus is it a double kill night if TGP is successful in killing?

Seems the pumpkin needs a little more help. A conversion or a double kill opportunity under his control.

and In. I would post my big IN image but it cannot top Unagi's In image...

EXCELLENT!! WE ARE FULL!!!

Linus and the Great Pumpkin both know each other's identity. (I have updated the rulez)

How about this power for the Great Pumpkin:
Once per game, the Great Pumpkin can perform a ritual blood sacrifice. The sacrifice involves the killing of his prophet, Linus, and another child. The targeted child is instantly killed (Pig Pen's protection does not protect the targeted child). Also, if Pig Pen was protecting that targeted child, he will die as well. (Potential for a triple night kill) However, if the targeted is Lucy, she foils the ritual and kills the Great Pumpkin winning the game for the Not Evil team.

What does everyone think?

I would nix the "if he hits Lucy with the ritual it's game over", though I am amused by the possibility of the game ending on night 1, as that's too big a risk for too little reward. Maybe just have it be that the ritual fails, Linus dies, and that's it.

Related question: if Linus gets lynched, does that mean that the Great Pumpkin loses this power?

sounds like it, which I am ok with, prevents Linus from acting weird in order to sacrifice himself in the early game just to draw attention away from hunting TGP.

Ahhhh feels good.

Yes. Linus dies and it's off the table for the GP.

Ok. I'll make the rulez changed and start the game when I get home.

Can the ritual be done at daytime, or only during the night?

Good point. Only night. I'll update when I get home.

Let me know when I can lynch Newcastle.

Franklin is the only one I forgot, whose name I know. That and the Cute Little Red Headed girl by reference only.

No more roles then those in the rulez however everyone is free to role play once game starts. That won't matter to the rulez and fun!

Been busy so I'll send out the roles tomorrow sometime and start the game shortly after. Since there is no baddies forum to set up it should be pretty easy.

As people get their roles please check in in the game thread so we don't give any meta info away since we start at night.

Lord Mortis, are you joining the game?

Oh, Newcastle. Are you joinng too?

Scoop20906 wrote:Oh, Newcastle. Are you joinng too?
