The SemiRPG Social Game
SemiRPG is a social game with elements of an RPG. Also Known as Werewolf / Mafia / Aliens or any number of other things depending on the roleset employed.
Games occur primarily in #werewolf on Caelestia regardless of which roleset is being employed as the Werewolf role set is historically the first roleset employed on Caelestia.net.
Werewolf was introduced to Caelestia.net by network founder Falerin in Mid-Late 2004 and was played through Early 2005. After several months of silence the game was resurrected in October of 2005.
Historically Werewolf is based on the Social Game Mafia which is credited generally to Russian Psychologist/Professor Dimma Davidoff. The game is loosely similar to memes in other games where the challenge is loosely a disproportional balance of power.
Our games HEAVILY emphasize playing ones role. As such winning is only a secondary goal.
Beginner's Guide
Rin has been kind enough to write a beginner's guide aimed at people new to RPing in general and Werewolf to guide them through how playing the game usually goes, here. Understanding the actual system is best done by playing, but do try to read below as well once you have read the basic guide to playing in the system.
Setup and Game Play
Setup follows the following general steps
- A moderator is selected.
- The Moderator assigns roles to the players
- The Moderator announces any house rules or special notes about the game
- Game play begins
Game play ensues as follows
- The game is divided into two recurring phases generally called Day and Night.
- During the night phase the smaller (villain) group kills a member of the larger body of players and a number of other roles declare their actions for the upcoming day.
- During the day phase the entire body of players learns the results of the previous night and chooses to lynch/kill one player whom they believe to be in the smaller group.
Beginner's Guide
If you would like additional assistance you are highly encouraged to check out SemiRPG/Rin's Beginner Guide and to actually dive into playing a game yourself. While, understanding the actual system is best done by playing, Rin has been kind enough to write up a helpful beginner's guide aimed at people new to RPing in general and Werewolf to guide them through how playing the game usually goes.
Winning
In a normal game play continues in the above fashion until either the smaller Villain group is exterminated in which case the Larger Hero group wins or Until the Smaller group has killed enough of the larger group that the numbers are equal that of the larger body in which case the Villain group wins.
There are however several games which have and do modify this by introducing restrictions or special winning conditions. In addition certain roles such as the Werehamster by their nature alter the game's winning condiitons.
Rolesets
Rolesets define the roles a player can play in a giving setting.
- The Werewolf Roleset - This is Caelestia's Default RoleSet
- The Mafia Roleset - This is Caelestia's Mafia RoleSet. Mafia is the older version of the game but is newere in terms of play on Caelestia.net
