You all know me, Abraham van Helsing, by my deeds and by my reputation; as the slayer of the Arch-Vampire Dracula and a fierce warrior against vicious beasts and supernatural monsters since 1887.
Although you have all been unaware that I was among you till now, I had chosen to go into retirement, living anonymously here in this hovel we call Casualton. However my keen eye has not abandoned me and I have discerned disturbing signs of late, that something terrible is afoot! That some rough beast has crept in among us and begun spreading its wicked seed through this slouching bedlam.
That beast, if I am not mistaken, and I never am, is undoubtedly a Werewolf. A cunning and deadly creature, red in tooth and claw. Unlike the werewolves of legend, this creature may take its canine form each night and is capable of both killing OR turning others into more of its own kind is its attempt to take over this town. It may have already begun converting our other innocent fellow townies to its bloodythirsty ranks. Do not try to save these unfortunate souls, for they are already lost forever! Together, they will attempt to sneak around at night, cunningly building their hideous strength and depleting our town 1 by 1, until they outnumber us, at which point they will massacre the survivors in an orgy of blood and vicera.
Against this dire threat, we are fortunate to have the services of our trusty Barkeep, who you will all know and trust. As there are only 2 ways in or out of the bar, with the help of 1 or more other townies, the Barkeep will be able to hold out in the local bar, protecting all within against attack. But beware, for should the Barkeep unwisely allow a werewolves in at night, all may be lost in the slaughter than inevitably ensues unless I am on hand to defend you.
During the day times, while they are vulnerable and attempting to hide amongst us, we must all gather together to examine the evidence and lynch the beasts, in order to calm this carnivorous canine threat.
Finally, I offer my expert services to the town and each night will attempt to identify OR slay a werewolf until all the beasts are gone. Undoubtedly they will attempt to destroy me so I will remain anonymous for the time being, unless I choose to reveal my true identity. Fortunately, with my experience fighting foul creatures of the night, any attempt by a gang of werewolves to turn me to their wicked ways will backfire, fatally I might add.
