Werewolf: Batman

The Bat signal can be seen high above the rooftops of Gotham City. Why? Because the caped crusader's Rogue's Gallery have escaped from Arkham prison and it is up to you to catch them before Gotham's population is put at risk!

The Penguin, Riddler & Poison Ivy have teamed up to take on the Bat. Meanwhile, his greatest enemy of all, The Joker is also on the loose. For now he is going it alone but laughter is infectious. Someone who is never alone anymore, however, is Harvey Dent aka Two Face. The questions is, is it the former DA or big bad Harv that the city should be prepared for?

Thankfully the Dark Knight does not have to try to apprehend them all by himself.



Batman - Bruce Wayne

Bruce Wayne, a wealthy American playboy, philanthropist, and owner of Wayne Enterprises, is usually who dons the cape and cowl. After witnessing the murder of his parents Dr. Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne as a child, he swore vengeance against criminals, an oath tempered by a sense of justice. Bruce Wayne trains himself physically and intellectually and crafts a bat-inspired persona to fight crime. Batman is a master detective and he uses these skills to track down assailants. He also uses his vast wealth and resources such as The Bat Computer - a digital database for nearly every crazed villain, politician, and socialite in the world. This computer can spit out information for the Caped Crusader to aid in his quest to rid Gotham of his gallery of rogues.

Robin - Nightwing - Apprentice

Dick Grayson was taken in by Batman / Bruce Wayne as his legal ward and trained to become his crime-fighting partner Robin. The Boy Wonder is an apprentice of sorts who has gone under the name of Robin & Nightwing at different times but no doubt will have to grow into his role as this game proceeds no matter what he chooses that to be.


Alfred Pennyworth - Medic/Vig

Ex-special forces, Alfred Pennyworth is not only extremely capable with a rifle but also with a medical kit be that suturing wounds, removing bullets or administering antidotes. Alfred has in his possession 2 bullets but he can't shoot the same day as he cures someone and this Butler extraordinaire is usually the only person who can cure poison in the game.

Commisioner Gordon - BG

As the police commissioner of Gotham City, James Gordon shares Batman's deep commitment to ridding the city of crime. He can provide police backup for those he thinks need it most. However with the city overrun he must choose wisely and can only protect one villager each night and cannot protect the same person 2 nights in a row.

Barbara Gordon / Oracle - Seer

Commissioner Gordon's daughter and the former head of the Gotham City Public Library, Barbara was paralyzed at the hands of our SK, The Joker, in the notorious "The Killing Joke". She has since become the hero known as Oracle, however, in this game she will be known as Seer and has the ability to check a players character once per day. She will be the one Gotham will look to in order to discover who is trying to deceive the fair citizens of Gotham.


Catwoman - Thief

Catwoman aka Selina Kyle was, at one point, a member of Batman's Rogues Gallery, and at other times his most enduring love interest, but one thing she always has been is a thief and that is no different in this game. Roled players beware! Catwoman may just steal what you prize most from right under your nose! Be honest - are you really sure you can fully trust this former villain?




Joker - His origins may be disputed but a psychopath with a warped, sadistic sense of humor is not someone you will want to have a dispute with in this game. Every day the Joker will bring his own form of unbridled chaos to Gotham city as he kills one citizen with his own unique flair - AKA this SK can write their own flavor for the Joker kill!




Penguin - Counterfeiter - Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot, a Gotham City mobster who fancies himself a "gentleman of crime", can usually be found at the Iceberg Lounge nightclub and has recently taken to the art of counterfeit. What exactly will he be faking that should rightly have the citizens of Gotham so worried?

Riddler - Edward Nygma has a compulsive need for attention and just can't help himself when it comes to dropping complex riddles and puzzles for Batman and friends to solve. Will you be able to solve the Puzzle of The Riddler to help the citizens of Gotham? Or will the Rogues reap the rewards of his antics?

Poison Ivy - Dr Pamela Isley is a Gotham City botanist who is obsessed with plants, ecological extinction, and environmentalism. As her name suggests she is a fan of using poison on her victims but the question you will be asking is Orchid or Rose? One is poisoned, one is not. Each day that Ivy is alive she can send these two flowers to players of her choice. Only she knows which contains the poison.

Two Face / Harvey Dent
One night good (day & night phases), the next bad, Harvey has powers to match, each time with a 50/50 chance of success. If Harvey lasts to the end and is good he can win with the Village. If he's bad they have to kill him or Big Bad Harv will lash out for the win. Seer Checks night 1: Harvey Dent - District Attorney, Night 2: Two Face
