Default SLOW GAME: Welcome to the Bay Area (Werewolf, Northern CA edition)

We have transported Pogglesworth from Greater Nowhere to the Greater Bay Area. Rather than humble villagers (not that there's anything wrong with that), the Poggleonians are now a sophisticated and diverse set of urbanites. Poggleonians are many things, and believe in celebrating their diversity. It is possible, however, that the newest Poggleonians may be too outside the norm even for this area...

:::::::::::::::IT IS DAY:::::::::::::::

Morning dawns, and, as is their habit, the local Poggleonians congregate at the original Peet's coffee house. Located at Walnut and Vine, the store has been open since 1966. In the '70s, this part of town became known as the "Gourmet Ghetto" for the small shops emphasizing fresh artisanal foods before they became trendy. Most of the Poggleonians are appreciatively inhaling the aroma of Peet's Free Trade Blend Coffee, although a few have opted for Peet's Snow Leopard whole leaf white tea.



The cheerful bustle of Peet's morning rush has subsided around them when the news finally leaks out. A Poggleonian is leisurely browsing the San Francisco Gate on his wireless laptop when he finds a tiny item on Pogglestown. An unnamed but important Poggleonian died last night under suspicious circumstances. Circumstances that indicate there are werewolves in town.

At first, there is confusion and the citizenry debates a bit over whether they now need to make Pogglestown public buildings "Lupine Friendly". Some take umbrage at the anti-social behavior of their new residents. They have killed a Poggleonian, and apparently, they also think nothing of wearing fur coats. A werewolf rehabiliation program is proposed. Ultimately, though, this position is discarded, and more militant elements prevail. The 1rst daily "Take Back the Night" rally/mob gets underway...

Still Alive:

12 Poggleonians, 4 Lupine Enhanced Persons (hereafter referred to as LEPs to avoid the negative connotations associated with WWs), 1 Seer (the mysteriously unnamed owner of the local occult shop).
