Created by Naurix for Blade of Dawn members on August 2010. The game started on Blade of Dawn Training Forum. The game has run by Naurix (Game 1, 2, 3 and 4).

Start of the Game

A thread will be posted in the Training Forum by whoever is running the game, simply post a reply to join. You will then get a private message explaining your role when the game begins and a new thread will start in the Training Forum. This thread will list all the players and what roles are being used (how many of each) but will not say who has which roles. The game will then start with votes of who to lynch, the player who gets the majority vote in the thread will be killed and their role revealed. Once this happens the thread will be locked and go to night phase, during which everybody with a night time ability will use it. After which point the thread will unlock and the events of the night will be explained before voting begins again. Each phase, day and night are two real days long. The game will continue in this way until win conditions are met by a group or a single player is left alive.

Every few days trade caravan will drive away to restock and it will be back soon. You can only buy items in night phase. You can find list with items below.

Garlic (300 gold coins) You can send it to any alive player and you will see if your target has eaten it or not. If target has eaten it then target is a good, if not then target is evil. ONLY VILLAGERS CAN BUY THIS

Magical Elixir (500 gold coins) This item is activated when is sent to any good player. If your target gets garlic from other player, then your target would not be able to eat it, so others may start to think that your target is a vampire. ONLY VAMPIRES CAN BUY THIS
