[Notice: The cogs of the world are slowly turning. For the sake of ■■■■, ■■■ invites you to participate in a group role-playing event called [Moonlit Night]. The winner will receive ■■■ as a reward.]
[Stars glitter in the dark of night, the forest under the moon. Sharp teeth hide beneath the wails. A foul-smelling liquid slides down the throat, and a sphere falls into a pool of blood with every breath. The smoke clears, and the last person returns to where they came from.]

A group role-play notice from an unknown source, and a mysterious organizer. A girl whose character name was Milia was happily chatting out of character in a role-play group, as usual, when an announcement suddenly popped up on her screen. Curious, she read through the so-called group role-play notice. But as soon as she clicked to confirm, everything went black. When she opened her eyes again, she had arrived in the disaster-stricken city of Yokohama, wearing the character skin she'd just been playing.
Milia: ...Damn. (A type of plant.)
So she had to win this "game" to go back, right?
After recalling the announcement, the girl, currently existing as "Oda Sakunosuke," took a deep breath and made her decision without a change in expression:
It's just Werewolf. Who's afraid of whom?
Bring it on! Let's fight!
She'd be the last one standing!
[Group role-play rules:
1. A character's abilities, identity, and existence are proportional to how accurately they are role-played.
2. The cast, number of players, and theme of each group role-play are chosen at random by ■■■. Refer to the announcement for that session for its specific rules.
3. Death during a group role-play is not real death. There is no penalty for losing the game.
4. Before the game ends, participants in the "dead" state will enter the [Soul Screening Room].
5. While the group role-play is underway, time outside the game is frozen. Participants enter the "stage" world in their soul forms, and ■■■ creates bodies for them to use.
6. Participants must not tell the locals things they shouldn't know. Anyone who does will be ■■■■■, and the current group role-play will be judged a failure.
7. ■■■■'s ■■■■■, ■■■■■■, for the sake of ■■■■■■■ and ■■■, all participants are urged to do their best.]
P.S.
1. The initial inspiration came from Bungo Stray Dogs Werewolf and tabletop role-playing games.
2. There won't be any "real names" in the story. Characters will mostly use character names or aliases.
3. It can also be read as an infinite-flow story about role-playing.
4. Most of the characters are based on existing characters.
5. This is a pre-release listing. I'll start writing it once I've finished the Ranpo-san book. Probably.()
That's all!
Theme: Live life seriously, and play the game seriously
