Werewolf - The Hunger Games
-
26-05-2019 10:43am#1Welcome to Werewolf - The Hunger Games
As punishment for a past rebellion, the 12 districts of the nation of Panem were forced by the Capitol to select two tributes, one boy and one girl between 12 and 18, to fight to the death in the annual Hunger Games until there is only one survivor. The 74th Hunger Games was won jointly by Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Meelark, after a show of their affection deemed either none or both would win. For the victory tour, they had to convince the nation that their love was real. As a punishment, President Snow announced that the Third Quarter Quell would involve past winners from all districts. However, these games would never conclude......
The uprising in the 13 districts has been raging for almost a year. The Capitol has wiped out all but 3 districts. These 3 districts have created strongholds and the war has reached a stalemate. The Capitol has offered to resolve the fate of Panem by holding an Ultimate Hunger Game, winner takes all. If the districts win (village), a new government will be formed to unite all of Panem. If the Capitol win, the rebels will stand down and the Capitol will once again take control of the districts. Either way, the rebels or the Capitol government will pay the ultimate price. Each district and the Capitol will send their best fighters to compete in the Ultimate Hunger Game.
Before the start of the games, Alma Coin infiltrated the Capitol Central Control and uploaded a bug into the computer system. She found a way to join the game herself and in the process, deleted the tribute's information and signed them random districts to help her hide more easily. She also setup an ad-hoc communication channel to keep her immune from any power blocking and seer peeks.
Katniss Everdeen: The Mockingjay. Katniss and her family come from District 12, a coal-mining district that is the poorest and least populated district in Panem. She volunteered to replace her sister, Primrose "Prim" Everdeen, after she was chosen to compete in the 74th Hunger Games. She ended up as joint winner of these games, much to the dissatisfaction of President Snow. She was then chosen to participate in the Third Quarter Quell as the only female winner from District 12. Katniss is highly skill with the bow and arrow. She will have an explosive arrow which she can use at any time. If she hits a Capitol, the Capitol BR will be blocked for 24 hours, they will be no longer able to communicate or use their powers during this time. Katniss will also have the chance to find Peeta or Gayle.
Plutarch Heavensbee : Seer. The leader of the rebellion movement in the districts and is the mastermind behind the plan to break the tributes out of the arena in the Third Quarter Quell. As designer of the previous game, he knows a thing or two about the fighters. He can peek a player each night.
Haymitch Abernathy: Priest. A "paunchy, alcohol loving, middle-aged man" who won the 50th Hunger Games. After his victory, he became an alcoholic and has spent almost all of the next 24 years intoxicated. As the only surviving victor from District 12 (one of only two in the history of the Games), Haymitch has been forced to mentor all of its tributes. During this time, he has seen a lot of tributes killed, Haymitch will be given the roles of all the fallen.
Boggs: Bodyguard. Boggs was President Coin's right-hand man. At first, Katniss wrote him off as someone she would dislike due to his close association with Coin. However, he has shown to be honest, witty, and friendly, and Katniss learnt to trust him. Boggs can protect a player each night.
Peeta Mellark: The male tribute from District 12 in both the 74th and after volunteering to take the place of of Haymitch Abernathy, Third Quarter Quell. Peeta has been in love with Katniss ever since he first saw her during elementary school, and declares his love for her during the pre-Games interview of the 74th Hunger Games. Katniss believes this was a ploy to gain the support of sponsors to help them survive the Games. Lacking Katniss's skills with weapons like the bow and arrow, he relies on his charm and physical strength, and teamwork with Katniss, to survive in the Games. He was captured by the Capitol at the end of the Third Quarter Quell and submitted to "hijacking", a process of torture and brainwashing which gives him an instinctual fear of Katniss and effectively turns him into an assassination weapon against her. During the uprising, he was rescued and eventually rehabilitated by the rebels. If Katniss can identify him, he will join her.
Gale Hawthorne: A district 12 resident who is two years older than Katniss, and shares her hunting skill. Through hunting they have become best friends. After the 74th Hunger Games, Katniss returns to District 12, but their relationship cannot continue as it was, since Katniss and Peeta must play the part of lovers due to threats from the Capitol. Gale confesses his love for Katniss after she asks him to run away with her. He and Katniss prepare to fight as it becomes clear that a rebellion is about to begin. However, Katniss, along with Peeta, is selected for the Third Quarter Quell and must leave District 12 to return to the Games. Gale fought in the rebellion when District 12 was destroyed. If Katniss can identify him, he will join her.
President Coriolanus Snow: The autocratic ruler of the Capitol and all of Panem. Though seemingly laid-back, his demeanor hides a sadistic and psychopathic mind. He paid Katniss a visit at home and told her he is angry that both she and Peeta were allowed to survive the 74th Hunger Games, as their act of defiance had ignited rebellion in several of the districts. She was too prominent to kill, but he threatened her family and Gale unless she proved to the districts that her act of saving Peeta was merely that of a love-crazed teenager and was not related to any desire to defy the Capitol. As punishment, Snow announced the the Third Quarter Quell would take place, involving previous district winners. After these games were hijacked, he remained in the Capitol during the year long uprising before announcing the Ultimate Hunger Games, in which he will part-take in himself for the Capitol.
Cato: Capitol Bodyguard. The District 2 male tribute in the 74th Hunger Games. He was the leader of the Career pack. He was the only tribute in the 74th Hunger Games, aside from Katniss, who is confirmed to have volunteered for the Games. Cato was skilled with many weapons and proved this by scoring a 10 in his individual training, earning many sponsors in the process. He then took part in the hunt for Katniss during the Games, along with the other career tributes and Peeta. He was brutally injured by genetically modified beasts at the end of the 74th Hunger Games. Thought to have been killed, he was rescued by the Capitol, and recruited to President Snow as his personal bodyguard. Cato can protect a player each night from both attacks and peeks.
Caesar Flickerman: Master of Ceremonies. He has served as the master of ceremonies since the 50th Hunger Games, but his unchanged appearance led Katniss to speculate that he had received extensive surgeries to retain his youth. He also interviews each tribute on live television the night before the Games begin and is known to have an innate ability to relax a tribute's fears so as to have a casual discussion with him or her. President Snow has selected Caesar to team Capitol as he can easily reach out to Capitol Central Control. Each night, Caesar can block a player's power, if they have any. However, he can't block President Alma Coin.
Seneca Crane: Was the Head Gamemaker during the 74th Hunger Games. Snow told Katniss he had him executed for letting both her and Peeta live by locking him in a room containing poisonous nightlock berries to consume. However, in reality, he was banished from the Capitol and given a new identity. Snow has now identified him as a key member of team Capitol as he knows a thing or two about the arena.
SERIAL KILLER
President Alma Coin: Was the leader of District 13. She has a special dislike of Katniss and mentioned that Katniss is more useful to her dead than alive. It is also revealed that she wanted Peeta rescued from the Third Quarter Quell, not Katniss. During the rebellion on Capitol, Coin deliberately placed Peeta in Katniss's squad to endanger Katniss's life, which Snow had warned about for he and Coin had been political rivals. Coin's brutal tactics to overthrow Snow, has lead to her being banished from the districts. She will now stop at nothing to take control of all of Panem.

Continuing my trend...Aggressive start Gabs!
Responded already but it isn't aggressive. This is a game where the more information we have available on thread, the better we can make decisions. I'm poking the drop-ins to respond and give us their early thoughts on what they make of the game, that's all
No mention of tasks. No mention of no tasks.
How does that make you feel Eva? What conclusions would you draw from this?Wasn't jigsaw a.... Serial killer?
Jigsaw was indeed a serial killer Riona, are you thinking that Fiona is the SK openly wolfing on thread?
Or is it just a bit of an early game joke?
Right I'll bbl, hopefully more will have posted and I can continue my questions (and maybe get some answers too)0 -

Thoughts on the set up. Well, it's complicated. Think the 'mods might have secrets' mean they definitely do. Not having autopriest will make things interesting. Am not sure how much of the role descriptions are just flavour or hints. I'm curious whether Crane has a power in addition to being wolfy. That about covers it for now.
What are your thoughts Gabs?
Roles seem pretty clear to me, it's the extras (in some cases) that are ambiguous.
What I'd really like is a list of anon accounts in the game list though 0 -

I wondered about that myself but thought that the lack of list combined with this:16. Munch will take place at 10am and Lynch at 9pm. The first game action will be Monday morning. THIS MAY BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
might be deliberate and fall under the mods secrets heading.0 -
