Alien Impostors

Notes

The Boffin might yield an in-play good character's ability. This satisfies the Pope. I've had an image in my head for ages of a script where the evil team are kind of like aliens, wearing skin suits, copying Townfolk, trying to fit in amongst the locals - 1950s Roswell energy. Finally made something that I think evokes that vibe! Pope was the missing ingredient. Also, just nice to make a Pope script! Here are the key interactions with the Pope / why I picked the characters I did: Steward, Librarian, High Priestess, Balloonist: I wanted to ensure all storyteller-chosen information was relatively "clashproof" in the event another player is claiming the same character. If two Town Criers have opposite information, it's likely one of them is lying. If there are two High Priestesses with different information, maybe that's still plausible! Snake Charmer: I'm mostly over the whole "+? Snake Charmers" thing, but the Pope is fun with blue liars as it gives them a bluff, too. See also, Banshee, Damsel. Dreamer: Mostly on this script because I just think it's really funny that the Dreamer can see another player as the Dreamer. Philosopher, Artist, Huntsman, Slayer: I wanted a lot of once-per-game effects on this script because I think they're interesting with the Pope. If there's two Artists, the demon can't kill both of you! However, if the Ojo picks Artist and there are multiple in play, you should absolutely prioritise the unspent one. Banshee: Votes for days! Poppy Grower: The Pope mitigates the strength of the Poppy Grower by making all bluffs plausible. However, if there are multiple Poppy Growers, the evil team don't learn each other until all have died. Lunatic: You have 4 Imp tokens! Consider using them! You probably shouldn't go too wild, as it's not super easy to keep a lot of Lunatics on the hook in this game, but it might be a bit of fun for your demon at any rate. Damsel / Huntsman: Whether you duplicate Damsels or duplicate Huntsmen, the Huntsman ability is more likely to go off! The Damsel is also more fun without the danger of hard-claiming a demon bluff, and because it has to become a not-in-play good character you learn something about the game when you transform (and there might be quite a lot to choose from). However, extra Damsels also increase the chance of a successful guess, so there's also an interesting push-pull here, esp. at lower player counts. Drunk / Xaan: I'm a big advocate for Xaan on a Drunk script, I think they have a really healthy synergy. The Xaan night gives you a clue about how many Outsiders there are, but the Drunk means you can't just rely on all the Outsiders coming out and going "Guess it's 3 then." Be sparing with extra Drunks, since the more players receive bunk info on the same night the more it'll look like a Xaan night. Xaan: The Pope overlaps with the Xaan, so the crucial thing the Xaan does is remove outsiders and poison everyone. Be brutal, feel free to go ham on once-per-game abilities! Scarlet Woman: The thing that always stresses me out about being the Scarlet Woman is getting caught without a bluff on the first day - if I'm any other minion I'm happy to roll with it, but as a minion with the responsibility of being a demon, I don't enjoy it. Here, you can bluff whatever you want! Boffin (house rule): The Demon ability can also be a duplicate. If you want, it can be the only duplicate! (If you've seen this house rule before, it may be because I used it on my previous stab at a Pope script! Now deleted, RIP.) The Wizard is mostly here for vibes. I like that the Pope empowers the minions to take big swings by supporting out-there bluffs, and the Wizard is the biggest and swingiest minion. I also think it's the most alien minion - doing weird experiments, hard to understand, probably mutilating cattle. Balloonist / Vortox is a bit of a rough combo, but the Pope at least means there might be more Outsiders than normal so it won't be obvious that they're just seeing Townsfolk - maybe the Balloonist learns three different Lunatics? You might be able to do something nasty with the Recluse if you're boxed in during a Vortox game, or just make the Balloonist the Drunk, or keep repeating the same two Townsfolk so it's a slow Knight. ==== Travellers! Cacklejack is fun with Pope as there's more expectation of duplicates / out-of-play characters to swap into, also goes pretty well with Farmer, Wizard, Damsel etc., or could just be a slow Hatter. Bone Collector and Scapegoat go well with all the once-per-game abilities and relatively vibes-based info - maybe you can Scapegoat to save a Xaan who hasn't poisoned yet, or a good player who's lying for a good reason. And, always include the Deviant if there's space!

Townsfolk

Steward

You start knowing 1 good player.

How DARE you accuse Her Ladyship of wrongdoing? I’ve known her my entire life! All nine years!

"You start knowing 1 good player." The Steward knows 1 good player. The Steward learns a player, but not their character. The Steward learns their information on the first night of the game. If created mid-game, then the Steward learns their information that night instead.

How to Run

While preparing the first night, put the KNOW reminder by any good character token. During the first night, wake the Steward. Point to the player marked KNOW. Put the Steward to sleep.

Townsfolk

Librarian

You start knowing that 1 of 2 players is a particular Outsider. (Or that zero are in play.)

Certainly madam, under normal circumstances, you may borrow the Codex Malificarium from the library vaults. However, you do not seem to be a member.

"You start knowing that 1 of 2 players is a particular Outsider. (Or that zero are in play.)" The Librarian learns that a particular Outsider character is in play, but not exactly which player it is. During the first night, the Librarian learns that one of two players is a specific Outsider. They learn this only once and then learn nothing more. The Drunk is an Outsider. If the Librarian learns that one of two players is the Drunk, they do not learn the Townsfolk that the Drunk's player thinks they are.

How to Run

While preparing the first night, put the Librarian's OUTSIDER reminder token by any Outsider character token, and put the Librarian's WRONG reminder token by any other character token.
During the first night, wake the Librarian and point to the players marked OUTSIDER and WRONG. Show the character token marked OUTSIDER to the Librarian. Put the Librarian to sleep. Remove the Librarian's reminder tokens when convenient.

Balloonist

Each night, you learn a player of a different character type than last night. [+0 or +1 Outsider]

More heat! Higher! Higher! Più alto! Ahhh... it is so beautiful from up here, don't you agree? Can you see the children fishing by the river, under the willow? Can you see the glint of the sun on the circus tent-poles? What's this? An old man, alone, passed out in the vineyard? Less heat! Lower! Lower! Vai più in basso!

"Each night, you learn a player of a different character type than last night. [+0 or +1 Outsider]" The Balloonist learns players of different character types. Each time the Balloonist learns a player, the player must have a different character type to the previously shown player. The Balloonist does not learn the character type of the player they learn. The shown player can be alive or dead. The shown player can be good or evil. If the Balloonist is drunk or poisoned, they may learn a character of the same type as the previously shown player. When the Balloonist becomes sober and healthy, they must learn a player of a different character type to the previously shown player. During setup, the Storyteller may choose to add an Outsider due to the Balloonist’s ability.

How to Run

During setup, you may add an Outsider.
When preparing the first night, mark any player with the KNOW reminder. When preparing each night afterwards, mark a character of a different type than the current with the KNOW reminder.
Each night, wake the Balloonist. Point to the player marked KNOW. Put the Balloonist to sleep.

Townsfolk

Snake Charmer

Each night, choose an alive player: a chosen Demon swaps characters & alignments with you & is then poisoned.

Effendi... I am but a humble man, but my pipe is golden and a single tune will tame the wildest djinn, Inshallah. They say that greed hangs more men than rope. But not I, Effendi... not I.

"Each night, choose an alive player: a chosen Demon swaps characters & alignments with you & is then poisoned." The Snake Charmer learns player after player that is not the Demon... but becomes the Demon if they get either too greedy or too bold. Each night, they choose a player. If that player is not the Demon, nothing happens. If they are the Demon, the Snake Charmer becomes that Demon and turns evil, and the Demon becomes good and poisoned permanently. If the Philosopher has the Snake Charmer ability and becomes the Demon, the Demon becomes a poisoned Philosopher.

How to Run

Each night, wake the Snake Charmer. They point at any player.
If that player is not the Demon, nothing happens. Put the Snake Charmer to sleep.
If that player is the Demon, the old Snake Charmer changes into the new (evil) Demon, and the old Demon changes into the new (good) Snake Charmer—swap the Snake Charmer token and the Demon’s token. The new Snake Charmer is poisoned - mark them with the POISONED reminder. Wake the new Demon and show them the YOU ARE info token, a thumbs-down, the YOU ARE token, then the Demon’s token. (This shows they are now evil and the Demon.) Put the new Demon to sleep. Wake the new Snake Charmer and show them the YOU ARE info token, a thumbs-up, the YOU ARE info token, then the Snake Charmer token. (This shows they are now good and the Snake Charmer.) Put the new Snake Charmer to sleep.

Examples & Notes

In the strange situation that the Snake Charmer is evil, or the Demon good, swap their alignments as appropriate.

Philosopher

Once per game, at night, choose a good character: gain that ability. If this character is in play, they are drunk.

If anything is real, beer is real. Drink, for tomorrow we may die.

"Once per game, at night, choose a good character: gain that ability. If this character is in play, they are drunk." The Philosopher has no ability until they decide which character they want to emulate. They can do this once per game. When they do so, they gain that character’s ability. They do not become that character. They may want to wait a while to choose. If the Philosopher chooses a character that is already in play, the player of that character becomes drunk. If the Philosopher then dies or becomes drunk or poisoned, the player they are making drunk becomes sober again. If the Philosopher chose a character that was not in play at the time but is in play now, that character is drunk. If the Philosopher gains an ability that works at night, they wake when that character would wake. If this ability is used on the first night only, they use it tonight. If the Philosopher regains their ability via the Bone Collector, or uses their ability twice via the Barista, the Philosopher may choose a new ability, or the same ability as before. If the Philosopher’s ability works while dead, such as the Klutz’s, it works if the Philosopher is dead.

How to Run

Each night, wake the Philosopher. They either shake their head no or point at any Townsfolk icon or any Outsider icon on their character sheet. Put the Philosopher to sleep.
If they pointed to an icon of a character not in play, swap the Philosopher token with the chosen character token and mark them with the IS THE PHILOSOPHER reminder.
If they pointed to an icon of a character in play, the player of the chosen character becomes drunk - mark them with the DRUNK reminder. (You can now use the duplicated character’s reminders for the Philosopher). If the Philosopher dies, the player made drunk by the Philosopher becomes sober - remove the DRUNK reminder.

Artist

Once per game, during the day, privately ask the Storyteller any yes/no question.

Mon Dieu! C'est lumineux! My work, she is... how you say... Magnifique! Dieu est révélé! Oui.

"Once per game, during the day, privately ask the Storyteller any yes/no question." The Artist may ask any 1 question, and get an honest answer. The question may deal with anything at all, phrased in any way they want. The Storyteller honestly answers “yes,” “no,” or “I don’t know.” It is up to the Artist to talk with the Storyteller, not the other way around. This isn’t a public conversation, and the group can’t listen in. It’s private.

How to Run

During any day, the Artist can request a private chat with you. Take them away from the circle so you cannot be overheard. They will ask you a question. Whisper “Yes,” “No,” or “I don’t know,” to them, or if you cannot answer in one of these ways, prompt the Artist to ask again in a different way. The Artist loses their ability - mark them with the NO ABILITY reminder.

Examples & Notes

Like the Savant, evil players bluffing as the Artist may request a private chat with you and pretend to ask a question. To help them bluff, you can pretend to give an answer by nodding or shaking your head.

Townsfolk

Slayer

Once per game, during the day, publicly choose a player: if they are the Demon, they die.

Die.

"Once per game, during the day, publicly choose a player: if they are the Demon, they die." The Slayer can kill the Demon by guessing who they are. The Slayer can choose to use their ability at any time during the day, and must declare to everyone when they're using it. If the Slayer chooses the Demon, the Demon dies immediately. Otherwise, nothing happens. The players do not learn the identity of the dead player. After all, it may have been the Recluse! A Slayer that uses their ability while poisoned or drunk may not use it again. The Slayer will want to choose an alive player. Even if the Slayer chooses a dead Imp, nothing happens, because a dead player can't die again. Players may say whatever they want at any time, so a player who's pretending to be the Slayer may pretend to use the Slayer ability.

How to Run

During the day, the Slayer can declare that they wish to use their ability. If so, the Slayer points at any player. If the chosen player is an alive Demon, declare that the chosen player dies—put a shroud on their character token in the Grimoire. If the chosen player is not an alive Demon, say "Nothing happens." Either way, the Slayer loses their ability—put the Slayer's NO ABILITY reminder token by the Slayer token.
If a player is bluffing as the Slayer and declares they wish to use their ability, act as if they were indeed the Slayer—allow time for discussion, let them make the decision, and act like you're fiddling with tokens in your Grimoire, then say "Nothing happens."
When the Slayer declares that they wish to use their ability, give the group a minute or two to discuss who the Slayer should choose. This allows the group to feel responsible for the win (or the loss!), but the Slayer always makes the final choice.

Banshee

If the Demon kills you, all players learn this. From now on, you may nominate twice per day and vote twice per nomination.

Gorm do shúile, dearg do ghruaig, ní bheidh sé i bhfad, is a mbeidh tú san uaigh.

"If the Demon kills you, all players learn this. From now on, you may nominate twice per day and vote twice per nomination.” The Banshee becomes more powerful when dead, nominating and voting twice as much. When alive, the Banshee nominates and votes as normal. When dead, they may nominate twice per day, even though dead players may normally not nominate at all. When dead, they may vote for any nomination they wish and do not need a vote token to do so. They may vote twice for the same nomination. The Banshee only gains these powers if they were killed by the Demon. Dying by execution or to a non-Demon ability does not count. To vote twice, the Banshee player raises both hands when votes are counted. If the player is unable to do this due to a disability, the Storyteller can count their normal vote twice.

How to Run

If the Banshee is killed by the Demon, place the HAS ABILITY reminder token next to the Banshee and say “The Banshee has awoken” or something similarly dramatic. The Banshee may nominate twice per day, but it is the player’s responsibility to remember how many times they have nominated. The Banshee may raise two hands when voting. When counting the votes, count each hand as a vote.
If the Banshee is killed by the Demon but does not have their ability at that time or is killed by a non-Demon ability, then do not tell the group that the Banshee ability has been triggered. The Banshee may not nominate, and needs a vote token to vote, like a regular dead player.

Examples & Notes

If all good players are dead, the game continues. Good can still win due to the Banshee being able to nominate.

Townsfolk

Poppy Grower

Minions & Demons do not know each other. If you die, they learn who each other are that night.

In the hidden groves of the deep forest, the black poppy dwells. To see its revelry is to be enchanted. To smell its thick aroma is to be lost forever, a slave to the gods of light and dark.

"Minions & Demons do not know each other. If you die, they learn who each other are that night." The Poppy Grower prevents the evil players from learning who each other are. The Demon still learns three not-in-play characters that are safe to bluff as. If the Poppy Grower dies, the Demon and Minions learn who each other are, as though it were the first night again. If the Poppy Grower becomes drunk or poisoned, Demons and Minions do not suddenly learn who each other are. If the Poppy Grower is drunk or poisoned when they die, Demons and Minions do not learn who each other are, since the Poppy Grower has no ability that night. An evil Traveller still learns which player is the Demon when that Traveller enters play.

How to Run

During the first night, wake the Demon. Show the THESE CHARACTERS ARE NOT IN PLAY info token, then any three good character tokens that are not in play. Then, put the Demon to sleep. Do not do the Minion Info and Demon Info steps.
If the Poppy Grower dies, mark them with the EVIL WAKES reminder. That night, wake the Minions and let them make eye contact. Show the THIS IS THE DEMON info token, then point to the Demon. Put the Minions to sleep. Wake the Demon. Show the THESE ARE YOUR MINIONS info token, then point to the Minions. Put the Demon to sleep.

Outsider

Lunatic

You think you are a Demon, but you are not. The Demon knows who you are & who you choose at night.

I am the night... I think.

"You think you are a Demon, but you are not. The Demon knows who you are & who you choose at night." The Lunatic thinks that they are the Demon. Much like the Drunk, the Lunatic does not know their real character or real alignment. They are woken each night to attack as if they were the Demon that is in play, but their choices have no effect because they have no Demon ability. The Lunatic wakes during the first night to learn three bluffs and the appropriate number of Minions, but this information may be wrong. The real Demon knows which players the Lunatic chose to attack each night.

How to Run

While setting up the game, put the Lunatic and Demon tokens in the bag. Once all tokens have been returned to you, swap the positions of the Lunatic and Demon tokens in the Grimoire.
During the first night, wake the Lunatic and act as if they are the Demon. Show them the THESE ARE YOUR MINIONS info token and point to a number of players equaling the number of Minions in play. (These can be any players, whether or not they are Minions.) Show any three good character tokens as bluffs. (These can even be characters that are in play.)
During the first night, wake the Demon. Show them the YOU ARE info token, then their Demon token. (This tells them they are the real Demon.) Show them the THIS PLAYER IS info token, then the Lunatic token, then point at the Lunatic player.
Each night, before the Demon wakes to attack, wake the Lunatic to act as if they were that Demon. Put a CHOSEN reminder on each player they chose, then put them to sleep. Wake the real Demon, point at the Lunatic, show the Lunatic token to the real Demon, and point at the players that the Lunatic chose. Then the Demon acts as normal.

Examples & Notes

You can make the Lunatic think they are a different Demon than the in-play Demon by instead putting two Demon tokens in the bag, then replacing one of them with the Lunatic token once they are in the Grimoire.

Outsider

Drunk

You do not know you are the Drunk. You think you are a Townsfolk character, but you are not.

I’m only a hic social drinker, my dear. Admittedly, I am a heavy burp socializer.

"You do not know you are the Drunk. You think you are a Townsfolk character, but you are not." The Drunk player thinks that they are a Townsfolk, and has no idea that they are actually the Drunk. During setup, the Drunk's token does not go in the bag. Instead, a Townsfolk character token goes in the bag, and the player who draws that token is secretly the Drunk for the whole game. The Storyteller knows. The player does not. The Drunk has no ability. Whenever their Townsfolk ability would affect the game in some way, it doesn't. However, the Storyteller pretends that the player is the Townsfolk they think they are. If that character would wake at night, the Drunk wakes to act as if they are that Townsfolk. If that Townsfolk would gain information, the Storyteller may give them false information instead—and the Storyteller is encouraged to do so.

How to Run

While setting up the game, before putting character tokens in the bag, remove the Drunk token and add a Townsfolk character token. Add the Drunk's IS THE DRUNK reminder token to the Grimoire. Put the swapped Townsfolk character token in the bag, not the Drunk character token.
While preparing the first night, put the Drunk's IS THE DRUNK reminder token by any Townsfolk character token, changing that player's character to the Drunk. They are now an Outsider, and do not have the ability of this Townsfolk character. (But they think they do.)
During the game, act as if the Drunk is actually this Townsfolk character. (If that character would wake to act at night, the Drunk wakes to act. If their ability would give them information, you can give false information to them if you wish. See "Drunkenness and Poisoning" in the rulebook.)

Damsel

All Minions know a Damsel is in play. If a Minion publicly guesses you (once), your team loses.

Don't touch the hair, honey.

"All Minions know a Damsel is in play. If a Minion publicly guesses you (once), your team loses." The Damsel needs to avoid being found by the Minions. If a Minion guesses that you are the Damsel, and does so publicly (so that all players know that they are a Minion), evil wins. No matter how many Minions are in play, they only get one guess, total. If a Minion makes a guess and is wrong, future guesses by this Minion or by other Minions don’t count. If the Demon pretends to be a Minion making a guess, that doesn’t count as a guess. Minions may still make a guess and win. Minions may make a guess at any time. If the Damsel dies, they are no longer at risk of being guessed by a Minion, since the Damsel loses their ability when dead. There may not be a Huntsman in play. But if there is, and the Huntsman chooses the Damsel at night, the Damsel becomes a not-in-play Townsfolk, and is no longer the Damsel. The Damsel learns which Townsfolk and has that Townsfolk ability from then on.

How to Run

During the first night, wake each Minion. Show the Damsel token. Put each Minion to sleep.
At any time during the game, if a Minion publicly guesses which player is the Damsel and is incorrect, mark the Damsel with the GUESS USED reminder. Future guesses by Minion players have no effect.
At any time during the game, if a Minion publicly guesses which player is the Damsel and is correct, the game ends. Declare that the evil team wins.

Minion

Wizard

Once per game, choose to make a wish. If granted, it might have a price & leave a clue as to its nature.

Every man and every woman is a star. Love is the law, love under will.

"Once per game, choose to make a wish. If granted, it might have a price & leave a clue as to its nature." The Wizard makes a wish. This wish is limited only by the player’s imagination. It can be anything at all. The Wizard can write their wish on their phone and wake at night to show the Storyteller, or talk with the Storyteller in private during the day. The Wizard could even make a wish publicly if they are feeling foolish. If the Storyteller tells the group that the Wizard has made a wish, they need not do so immediately, and can do so at any point later on. Many wishes have a price. The price changes the game in some way, or changes the wish in some way. It can be anything at all, and is decided by the Storyteller. The Storyteller may or may not tell the Wizard what the price is. The purpose of the price is to rebalance a wish that is unfair for the good team on a mechanical level. Many wishes leave a clue. The clue can be anything at all, is decided by the Storyteller, and is declared publicly. The purpose of a clue is to rebalance a wish that is unfair to the good team on an informational level. When the Wizard dies, the wish may or may not still be in effect, depending on the nature of the wish and the nature of the price. If the Wizard makes a wish that the Storyteller doesn’t understand, or feels like it would be impossible to implement, the Storyteller may ask the Wizard to wish again, or cancel the wish.

How to Run

When the Wizard makes a wish, either verbally or via text, decide whether to accept or decline the wish. If the wish is declined, prompt the Wizard to wish again, or tell them that they have no more wishes.
If the wish is granted, say “Your wish is granted.” or “Your wish is my command”, or nod, or otherwise signal that their wish is accepted. Now or later, you may make a price: make whatever mechanical adjustments to the game you feel are necessary for the wish to be balanced. Now or later, you may declare publicly that the Wizard has made a wish, then give the good team a clue about what was wished.

Examples & Notes

Storytelling the Wizard can be tricky. The Wizard is the most fun for everybody when all wishes are granted, all wishes leave a clue, and all wishes have a price. However...
If you feel that by granting a wish, the evil team has benefitted a small amount but the good team still has all they need to figure out who the Demon is and to win the game, you may apply no clue and no price. You may even skip telling the good team that the Wizard has made a wish, or tell them but give no clue.
If you feel that by granting the wish, the good team is at a severe disadvantage in terms of balance - the game rules have changed so that it is impossible for the good team to win even if they learn who the Demon is - then change the game rules or change the wish so that it is still fair for the good team.
If you feel that by granting the wish, the good team is at a severe disadvantage in terms of knowledge - they lack the needed information to reasonably win the game - then give them a helpful clue to find out what the wish was.
If you feel that the wish is so extreme and convoluted that you can think of no clue or price to balance it, or that it would just make the game unfun, then decline the wish completely.
Overall, the wish should tip the scales in favour of the Wizard, but still allow the good team a reasonable chance of winning. Take your time in deciding how to do this.

Minion

Xaan

On night X, all Townsfolk are poisoned until dusk. [X Outsiders]

Down they fall. One by one. By two, by three, by five.

"On night X, all Townsfolk are poisoned until dusk. [X Outsiders]" The Xaan poisons all Townsfolk. The Xaan poisons all Townsfolk players for one night then one day. The night that this happens equals the number of Outsiders in play. For example, if there are 2 Outsiders, the Xaan poisons on night 2. There can be any number of Outsiders in play, but usually 1 to 4. This can be the normal number of Outsiders if the Xaan was not in play, or something different. This overrides other characters that add or remove Outsiders, such as the Baron. If the number of Outsiders changes during the game, the Xaan poisons on the night corresponding to the number of Outsiders during setup. The Xaan needs to be alive in order to poison.

How to Run

While setting up the game, before putting character tokens in the bag, add or remove any number of Outsider tokens, including zero. Remove any unnecessary Xaan reminders.
On the 1st night, add the NIGHT 1 Xaan reminder to the Grimoire. On the 2nd night, add the NIGHT 2 Xaan reminder to the Grimoire. On the 3rd night, add the NIGHT 3 Xaan reminder to the Grimoire. On the night that equals the number of Outsiders in play when the game began, add the X reminder to the Grimoire, and remove it the following dusk.
When the X reminder is in the Grimoire, all Townsfolk players are poisoned.

Boffin

The Demon (even if drunk or poisoned) has a not-in-play good character’s ability. You both know which.

Stellar hydrogen, vast, inert; carbon, oxygen, neon gases, all ruined. Molecular chaos, entropy, yields new cosmic phenomena, rebirth from atomic chaos, dense matter collapsing. All in a teeny little bottle.

"The Demon (even if drunk or poisoned) has a not-in-play good character's ability. You both know which." The Boffin replicates a good ability. While the Boffin is alive, the Demon has a single Townsfolk ability or Outsider ability. If the Demon is drunk or poisoned, the Demon keeps this good ability. If the Boffin is drunk or poisoned, the Demon temporarily loses this good ability. If the Demon dies and has an ability that functions while dead, such as the Sweetheart, the Demon keeps this ability. If a new Demon is created, such as via a Scarlet Woman or a Barber, this new Demon has an ability from the Boffin. This ability may be different to the previous Demon's ability. If there are multiple Demons alive, only one alive Demon has an ability from the Boffin. If the Demon has an ability that modifies the setup, such as a Choirboy, these changes are made during setup, as normal. Both the Demon and the Boffin learn which good ability the Demon has. The Storyteller may wake these players independently, or together. The not-in-play character may be 1 of the Demon's 3 bluffs. The Demon also wakes at night at the time that the good character would normally wake.

How to Run

While setting up the game, before putting character tokens in the bag, make any changes that are indicated in brackets on the Demon's two character abilities. Afterwards, place this second character token by the Demon character token.
During the 1st night, wake the Boffin and the Demon. Show the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token, then the Boffin token, then the good character token. Place this second character token by the Demon character token.
Treat the Demon player as if they had this character ability, as well as their own Demon ability.

Examples & Notes

Good abilities that would drunk/poison themselves, such as the Sailor, only drunk/poison the Demon's good ability.

Demon

Imp

Each night*, choose a player: they die. If you kill yourself this way, a Minion becomes the Imp.

We must keep our wits sharp and our sword sharper. Evil walks among us, and will stop at nothing to destroy us good, simple folk, bringing our fine town to ruin. Trust no-one. But, if you must trust someone, trust me.

"Each night*, choose a player: they die. If you kill yourself this way, a Minion becomes the Imp." The Imp kills a player each night, and can make copies of itself... for a terrible price. On each night except the first, the Imp chooses a player to kill. Because most characters act after the Demon, that player will probably not get to use their ability tonight. The Imp, because they're a Demon, knows which players are their Minions, and knows three not-in-play good characters that they can safely bluff as. If the Imp dies, the game ends and good wins. However, if the Imp kills themself at night, they die and an alive Minion becomes an Imp. This new Imp does not act that same night, but is now the Imp in every other way—they kill each night, and lose if they die.

How to Run

Each night except the first, wake the Imp. The Imp points at any player. Put the Imp to sleep. The chosen player dies—put the Imp's DEAD reminder by the chosen player's character token in the Grimoire and put a shroud on it.
If the Imp killed themself at night, choose an alive Minion and replace their character token with a spare Imp token, changing their character to the Imp. Wake the new Imp, show them the YOU ARE info token, then show them the Imp token. Put the new Imp to sleep.
At dawn, declare which player died at night. (Do not say how they died.)
If the Imp attacks a dead player at night, let them do so. Whenever a character's ability says "choose a player," that means that any player—alive or dead—can be chosen. The Imp may be planning on bluffing as the Soldier, and this kind of thing helps their bluff look stronger.

Demon

Ojo

Each night*, choose a character: they die. If they are not in play, the Storyteller chooses who dies.

Like a bonfire on a moonless night… I see you, mortal.

"Each night*, choose a character: they die. If they are not in play, the Storyteller chooses who dies." The Ojo chooses specifically which character dies. Unlike other Demons, the Ojo must choose a character, not a player. The Storyteller may need to remind the player of this. We recommend that all players have their character sheet handy during the night phase. The Ojo can kill evil characters, if they wish. If there are multiple copies of a particular character in play, and the Ojo chooses that character to die, only one of those characters dies. If the Ojo chooses a character that is not in play, the Storyteller will almost always kill a living good player. It is possible, but uncommon, for the Storyteller to choose a dead player or an evil player to die.

How to Run

Each night except the first, wake the Ojo. The Ojo player points to a character icon on their character sheet. If that character is in play, that player dies—mark them with the “Dead” reminder. If that character is not in play, choose any player. That player dies—mark them with the “Dead” reminder. Put the Ojo to sleep.

Examples & Notes

If the Ojo is on a script with a Demon that kills multiple times per night, such as the Shabaloth, and the Ojo chooses a not-in-play character, you may choose more than one player to kill that night. This helps the Ojo player pretend that a different Demon is in play.

Demon

Vigormortis

Each night*, choose a player: they die. Minions you kill keep their ability & poison 1 Townsfolk neighbor. [-1 Outsider]

All doors are one door. All keys are one key. All cups are one cup, but whosoever drinketh of the water that I give shall never thirst, but the water shall be in him a well springing up into everlasting life.

"Each night*, choose a player: they die. Minions you kill keep their ability & poison 1 Townsfolk neighbor. [-1 Outsider]" The Vigormortis kills their own Minions, but those Minions keep their ability. Every time the Vigormortis kills a Minion, they die but keep their ability for as long as the Vigormortis remains alive. The Witch, Cerenovus, and Pit-Hag still act each night. Somewhat like the No Dashii, the dead Minion’s closest clockwise or closest counterclockwise Townsfolk becomes poisoned, even if they are dead. If the Vigormortis dies or otherwise loses their ability, then those players become healthy again. One Townsfolk per Minion will always be poisoned this way, as neighboring Outsiders, Minions, or Travellers are skipped. The Storyteller chooses which of the two Townsfolk is poisoned. All Minions killed by the Vigormortis keep their ability and poison a Townsfolk, not just the most recent. If a dead Minion becomes a non-Minion character, they no longer poison a Townsfolk and have no ability. If a dead Minion becomes drunk or poisoned, they lose their ability until they become sober and healthy again.

How to Run

While setting up the game, before putting the character tokens in the bag, remove one Outsider character token and add one Townsfolk character token. (If there are no Outsider tokens to remove, do not add a Townsfolk token.)
Each night except the first, wake the Vigormortis. They point at any player. Put the Vigormortis to sleep. If the chosen player isn’t a Minion, that player dies - mark them with a DEAD reminder.
If the chosen player is a Minion, that player dies - mark them with a DEAD reminder and a HAS ABILITY reminder. The closest clockwise or closest counterclockwise Townsfolk to the Minion becomes poisoned - mark them with a POISONED reminder.

Demon

Vortox

Each night*, choose a player: they die. Townsfolk abilities yield false info. Each day, if no-one is executed, evil wins.

Black is White. Right is Wrong. Left is Right. Up is Long. Down is Sight. Short is Blind. Follow me. Answers find.

"Each night*, choose a player: they die. Townsfolk abilities yield false info. Each day, if no-one is executed, evil wins." The Vortox makes all information false. Anytime a Townsfolk player gets information from their ability, they get false information. Even if they are drunk or poisoned, it must be false. The Vortox does not affect information gained by other means, such as when the Storyteller explains the rules, or when a player’s character or alignment changes. When night falls, if nobody was executed today, evil wins. Exiling a Traveller does not count.

How to Run

While the Vortox is alive, you must give false information whenever a Townsfolk ability prompts you to give information.
Each night except the first, wake the Vortox. They point at any player. That player dies - mark them with the DEAD reminder. Put the Vortox to sleep.
Each dusk, if no player was executed today, the game ends and the evil team wins.

Traveller

Cacklejack

Each day, choose a player: a different player changes character tonight.

Wire α To wire β. LigHt oN. BuZZer off. GAzOinks! Arms STra1ght. FingER 2 nose. hOooLd stiLL. BoiNgo-banGo! Ha-ha-ha!

"Each day, choose a player: a different player changes character tonight." The Cacklejack causes character-changing chaos. The Storyteller chooses one player to change character each night. This player can be evil or good, dead or alive. The Storyteller also chooses which character they become. This may be an in-play or a not-in-play character. Each day, the Cacklejack chooses a player that is immune - the Storyteller must choose a different player to change character that night. The Cacklejack may choose publicly or privately, but must choose during the day. Each time a player’s character changes, this is treated as a new instance of that character ability. For example, if a player becomes the Chef on Night 3, they immediately learn how many pairs of evil players there are.

How to Run

Each day, the Cacklejack chooses a player. Mark them with the NOT ME reminder.
Each night, except the first, replace any player’s character token with a different character token. Wake that player. Show the YOU ARE info token, and their new character token, then put them to sleep.

Examples & Notes

Remember that the night order is just a guide. The Cacklejack may act at any point in the night if you need it to.

Traveller

Bone Collector

Once per game, at night*, choose a dead player: they regain their ability until dusk.

I collect many things. Hair. Teeth. Clothes. Fragments of poems. The dreams of lost lovers. My secret arts are not for you to know but my fee is a mere pittance. Bring me the blood of a noblewoman who died of heartbreak under a full moon, and you shall have your answers.

"Once per game, at night*, choose a dead player: they regain their ability until dusk." The Bone Collector temporarily gives dead players their ability back. The Bone Collector must choose a dead player. The chosen player remains dead, but they get their ability to use. If their ability was a “you start knowing” or a “once per game” ability—such as the Virgin, Slayer, Clockmaker, Seamstress, or Juggler—they may use it again, even if it was already used, until dusk falls. When the Bone Collector chooses a player, that player does not learn they were selected by the Bone Collector, although they find out soon enough when they are woken to use their ability. If the Bone Collector dies, that player no longer has the ability they regained due to the Bone Collector.

How to Run

Each night except the first, wake the Bone Collector. They either shake their head no or point at any dead player. Put the Bone Collector to sleep.
If they pointed at a dead player, the chosen player regains their ability—mark their character token with the Bone Collector’s HAS ABILITY reminder. (They may need to be woken tonight to use their ability.) The Bone Collector loses their ability—mark them with their NO ABILITY reminder. The next dusk, the chosen player loses their ability—remove the HAS ABILITY reminder.

Pope

There are duplicate good characters in play. They might also be bluffs.

...Pulcherrimae.

"There are duplicate good characters in play. They might also be bluffs." The Pope creates duplicate character claims. A Townsfolk or an Outsider, or both, have multiple copies in play. There may be one character that has multiple copies in play, or multiple characters that have multiple copies in play. There may be 2 characters that are the same, or as many as the Storyteller has tokens to accommodate. These characters might be a part of the 3 bluffs given to the Demon. The Storyteller will need multiple copies of the game, or at least some way to access identical character tokens, in order to run this character... for now. Duplicate Outsider characters may cause an unusual number of Outsiders. Duplicate Townsfolk characters may not.

How to Run

During setup, swap any Townsfolk tokens for duplicates of an in-play Townsfolk or Outsider character token. You may do this more than once.
During the DEMON INFO step, you may give the Demon one, two, or three of these duplicate character tokens as bluffs.

Examples & Notes

Think carefully about giving in-play characters as bluffs to the Demon. Some characters may make the game too difficult for the evil team.

Bootlegger

This script has homebrew characters or rules.

When I was born, I was named ‘Homebrewy McHomebrewface’, like my father before me. A respectable name, for a dignified age.

"This script has homebrew characters or rules." Add the Bootlegger to include homebrew characters or rules. The Bootlegger allows Storytellers to use characters they, or others, have created that are not official characters or allows them to use non-standard rules in the game. If there are homebrew characters on the character sheet, or homebrew rules in effect, the Storyteller tells all players what they are before play begins. The Bootlegger allows for multiple characters or rules to be in effect at once. As long as there is at least one homebrew character on the current script, this Loric will be in play and can only be removed by switching to a script that does not contain any homebrew characters. The Bootlegger is designed for use in the official app only. Bootlegger, despite many claims to the contrary, defeated Homebrewy McHomebrewface, “the people’s choice”, in a hotly contested poll to decide the Loric's name.

How to Run

At the start of the game, if there are homebrew characters on the character sheet or you are running homebrew rules, declare that the Bootlegger is in play and inform the group of all the homebrew characters and/or rules you are using in this game.
