Well hello there. As some of you may have noticed in recent werewolf games, there's been a theme to them. The purpose of this thread is to talk about potential themes, and help perfect them before we use them.For example, I'm currently planning a Death Note themed game.
Death Note, for those of you who don't know, is an anime/manga series about a notebook that, if you write someone's name in it, they die. Some key things that you'll need to know for this game to work:
1. The Death Notes are owned by Shinigami (Gods of Death). They will occasionly allow humans to use their Death Note (usually for their own entertainment).
2. In order for the Death Note to work, you must write their name in the Death Note (or even just a scrap of paper from the Death Note) while thinking of their face. This way, people with the same name can't be affected by the Death Note.
3. The Shinigami can make a deal with the human using it, where the Shinigami gives the user special eyes that allow you to see a person's name and how much time they have left. However, by making this deal you forfeit half of your remaining life.
Potential roles in this game:
Werewolf equivilents
Light Yagami: The first one to gain the Death Note. He originally only used it to kill dangerous criminals. However since he heartlessly killed people this still makes him a murderer. As a result, whenever someone got close to catching him he would do whatever he could to kill them, without drawing more suspicion to himself. Gained a nickname from the public: Kira.
Misa Amane: The second one to gain a Death Note. She made the Shinigami eye deal, so she could help Kira. Will act as a kind of "seer" to the bad guys.
Teru Mikami: The final Kira. Also made the eye deal, but not until Light didn't need Misa anymore.
Assassin
Kyosuke Higuchi: A business man. He was kind of a Kira impersonator. He mostly killed white collar criminals, especially ones that would benefit him in some way.
Elder
L Lawliet: Master Detective. Leader of the Japanese Task Force. If he dies, so does most of the hope of catching Kira.
Defenders
Touta Matsuda
Kanzo Mogi
Shuichi Aizawa
These guys (among others) were members of the Japanese Task Force in charge of catching Kira. I'll add/subtract from this list as I see fit.
Seer
Soichiro Yagami: Light's father. Made the eye deal to help catch a Kira impersonator.
Regular citizens will be represented by other, less important characters.
