The final nail in the boffin

Full Script

Dylan

Notes

The Imp has been added to convolute a potential Fang Gu jump, as during testing, after a suspicious player died at night, the good team entered "outsider massacre mode", which hopefully adding an Imp would add an extra layer of complexity to. Empath seemed to be oppressively strong here in testing, huntsman should be a preferable alternative. High Priestess was always a bit rough here; Noble should provide some more solid information for the good team. General was swapped out for Oracle to prevent towns instantly killing the recluse, to provide some more solid execution feedback and to help the good team out against the synergy between the Fang Gu and the Scarlet Woman. Overall, I really like this script and I think it's definitely one of the best Boffin scripts out there. Also, a big thanks to everyone who has ran and played this script, 36 known playtests is genuinely incredible!
