On the Riverbank

Full Script

Notes

This script is named for the orange poppies of my childhood, under the tall tress in the front yard, on the northern bank of the St. Lawrence, near Gananoque. To run the Hermit-Lunatic-Ogre, I recommend having every player who draws a Demon token make an Ogre selection at the end of Night 1 to conceal who (if anyone) is actually the Hermit. Don't deal the Lunatic token, you have four Imp tokens!
