Welcome to the game; you are the Hitchhiker
ALIGNMENT: Town
GENERIC: Special
WIN CONDITION: All Scum and malicious third-parties (if any) have been vanquished.
BACKGROUND:
In every horror movie, there comes a time when, on a lonely drive through deserted country, the hero and heroine slow down briefly as they pass a solitary figure, standing alone on the shoulder with thumb extended, seen only in silhouette. Maybe he's carrying a shoulder bag full of snack food; maybe he's carrying the dismembered and half-eaten corpse of his last victim. Impossible to say.
Well, in this movie, that silhouette has two thumbs, no corpses in the sack, and goes by the name of you.
You've never really been the type to settle down in one place for long. You've had a few brushes with romance, but your one true love is the open road... the call of the wild... the dust in the wind... the sand spurs in your sneakers... crap, those things hurt.
Yes, even the most dedicated wanderer must stop to rest from time to time, and this time the wind has blown you to a little cabin in the woods, whose occupants appear to be besieged by, of all things, Demons. You've seen a lot of things in your time; this isn't the first Demonically possessed wood chipper you've encountered. So you might be able to offer a bit of assistance to this gang of Demon finger food... if you can overcome your native wanderlust and stick around long enough to help.
POWERS:
1. At your discretion at any time Day or Night, you may choose to exit the game. You will be permanently removed from the active game (but continue to win or lose with Town). Your role and alignment will be revealed as if you had died.
If you wish to leave the game, please place a post to that effect in the main game thread, marked in bold-face and green text, and then post no more. Your departure will be effective from the time-stamp of that post. All active votes that had been placed on you, as well as your own vote, will be cancelled. Any actions directed against you will fail; however, players targeting you will have the opportunity to change their choice once you are gone.
At their discretion, the moderators may choose to extend the Day or Night on which you depart by a maximum of 24 hours to allow for reaction to your departure.
