Why begging and scrounging for coin of course, so that I might keep my pitiful belongings intact, and some modicum of warmth about me in these dark times.

It's not that dark yet though. The Elves haven't even left Middle Earth. I think you're over egging the pudding a little bit there now Betty.

Have you any thoughts outside your method acting about the players or are you just going to play in character for the game.

That is fair, I'm enjoying the acting quite a bit. As mentioned I will come back with some more substance later in terms of whom I think is worth pursuing. For now other than some players firing accusations all around I couldn't give a particular person I'd suspect with any real belief. I feel its too soon/difficult unless some one would be so kind as to reveal themselves wolf or SK?

@Pat the Baker certainly I think there is some aggressive, wolf-like behaviour being displayed by some of the younger ladies.

As the game progresses, I'm sure they will reveal more of themselves,  and I don't mean in *that* way. (Clutches pearls)

The OP is lacking on details just the way the mods want it to be, they want us to be confused, and at each other by omitting such details. We don't even know how many players there is, there are 33 names on the lynch form. Were we to believe that to be true figures, I would put the number of baddies as possibly 6 including an SK. Sauron might well be one of those but I wouldn't put it as 100% certain that they are a wolf

Personally I think that lynch form just another ruse by the mods to confuse players.

I wondered about the lynch form myself. OP says game proper doesn't start till tomorrow morning at 10am so I wonder if that will be updated then. Possibly not which means there's potential to be lynching NPCs...

NPAs actually. (Non posting accounts)

Upon hearing of a gathering of humans, hobbits, elves and dwarves at Rivendell Saruman grew fearful, nay rageful, and sent his Urak-hai army to destroy the alliance before it could be formed. In the bloody battle that ensued many lost their lives, but the fight was not in vain and the invading horde was defeated. The surviving members of the Fellowship scattered across the realm with a singular mission in mind. And lo, as they went, they sung the names of their fallen brethren and remembered them all as heroes...

Especially as it's based on the first book/movie which is primarily to do with Saruman and his Uruk Hai as the "physical" baddies. A few goblins and a cave ***** too along with an encounter with the Balrog.

Chuck that first paragraph into Google, even the first line and it'll spit the whole thing back to you. It's just flavour.

The game related stuff is further down, which is why people need to read the whole thing.

I have seen much aggression stirring among our ranks. Though I do not necessarily deem it the mark of evil itself. I think it is the shadow of fear that drives the likes of @Ina May the Midwife and @Wendy the Wench to speak so harshly, fear of the darkness we hunt. Would that be fair? 

Sarumans assault has thinned our numbers more than we’d wished. But surely now, there can be no more than three wolves among us. We must hold fast and keep our courage.

I wouldn't be so quick to call them both leaning good, if that's what you're saying?

I'd agree, no more than 3 wolves with a SK

I am merely saying that fear can lead to aggression as easily as 'badness' and am asking Ina and Wendy for their thoughts on that. I was hoping their response might help to clarify which way they are leaning.

In truth, none of us are perfect. I, too, have wrestled with self doubt. But Pat… I do wonder about you. You came into this company with words of wolves and how few there might be. I cannot help but question whether you already knew their number, and sought to appear as one unknowing.
