Circe: I am undoing this. I know the GMs still host it as 2 votes and tiebreaker. If you wish to play as only tiebreaker, than I suggest you put in both options, rather than fully removing the GM written one

-'''Werewolf''' is a roleplaying event popularized on the heRO server, based on the game Mafia with more of a fantasy theme.  There is no killing involved (not PvP nor PvM, anyway), so you don't have to be a certain level to join!  The only thing you need is some maturity, patience, and a reasonable understanding of the English language.

 The rest of the day is spent with discussion among those who remain.  The villagers will talk with each other and attempt to accuse someone for this heinous act, proactively or not.  This will typically take a few minutes, typically no more than five to ten.  The goal of the heated discussion is to have someone hung, either one of the wolves (if you are a villager), or to an innocent villager (if you are a wolf).  At the end of the day, everyone votes on who should be hung.

-==In summary...==
+==In short...==
-The villagers are trying to figure out who's a werewolf; the werewolves are pretending to be villagers, and trying to throw suspicion on real villagers.
+The Seer is trying to throw suspicion on any wolves they discover while being careful not to reveal themselves.  If the wolves were to figure out their ability, they will almost certainly kill them, as the Seer is perhaps the greatest threat to their numbers.  Of course, the Seer can still reveal themselves whenever they see fit.  Mind that anyone can claim to be the Seer, however, including wolves; meaning they can "reveal" anything they please.
-The seeress is trying to throw suspicion on any werewolves he/she discovers, but without revealing himself/herself to be the seeress (because if he/she does, the werewolves will almost certainly kill him/her that night, since he/she's the greatest threat to werewolf national security.) Of course the seeress can reveal himself at any time, if he/she thinks it's worthwhile to tell the other players what he's learned. Also of course, a werewolf can claim to be the seeress and "reveal" anything he wants. If you are the seeress it's usually a good idea to check your village chief, since he/she has 2 votes and influences the game, it's a good thing to check if the chief is on your side.
+The Alchemist only has two potions to last them for the entirety of the game, so it is important that they are very careful with them.  Their decisions could save a killer, or kill a saviour- or rather, someone that ''could'' have been a saviour, had they not been melted in acid.  Dead men may tell no tales, but you'll wish they could once you've found out that you've condemned the Seer to an unwarranted death without any final words that could have saved the village.
-If you are the alchemist, you only have 2 potions for the whole game, so it's usually a good thing to be careful with them. Alchemist usually use their life potion to bring back to life someone important, such as the Seeress, themselves or the village chief. It's also usually advised to not use your death potion too early in the game, you want to wait until you have a hunch someone is a werewolf, otherwise not only is it a waste but you stand a good chance of killing an innocent!
+In summary, the only information the villagers have to go on is the word of their fellows, and it is up to them to decide who they will trust.  The only sure thing is death: it reveals all of the deceased's sins, or in turn, their virtues.  Accusing someone is suspicious; accusing no one is suspicious; staying quiet is suspicious; talking is suspicious.  Everything you do or do not do in this game is suspicious, and your life will always rest in the hands of those around you.  Pray that those hands aren't stained with blood, and chances are that if they aren't, they soon will be.
-The only information the villagers have is what other players say -- and who dies. Accusing someone of being a werewolf is suspicious. Not accusing anyone is also suspicious. Agreeing with another player a lot is suspicious, and therefore so is pretending not to agree with another player. Never voting to kill a particular player is very suspicious for both of them. So all in all almost everything can be suspicious XD
+Good luck to you!  If you have any further questions, feel free to ask the host or other players- just don't ask them anything that might give you away!
