    Bounty Hunter

    You start knowing 1 evil player. If the player you know dies, you learn another evil player tonight. [1 Townsfolk is evil]


    Alone, I walk these streets, paved with the sick stench of corruption. Its thickness worms its way into my nostrils, unbidden, burning with revulsion. And anticipation. The illness of this wretched place grows each night. And I... I am the cure.

    "You start knowing 1 evil player. If the player you know dies, you learn another evil player tonight. [1 Townsfolk is evil]" The Bounty Hunter tracks down evil players, one at a time. The Bounty Hunter starts knowing one evil player. When that player dies, they learn another evil player. The Bounty Hunter only learns the evil player, not their character. If the Bounty Hunter is drunk or poisoned when they should learn a new player, the Storyteller may show them a good player. When the recently shown player dies, the Bounty Hunter learns a new player that night. The Bounty Hunter cannot learn the same evil player twice. If the Bounty Hunter is in the game at setup, one Townsfolk is evil. The Bounty Hunter may learn the evil Townsfolk.

    How to Run

    1. During setup, turn one Townsfolk character token upside down, to represent that they are evil. Mark one evil player with the KNOW reminder.
    2. During the first night, wake the Bounty Hunter. Point to the player marked KNOW. Put the Bounty Hunter to sleep.
    3. Each time the player marked KNOW dies, mark a new evil player with the KNOW reminder. That night, wake the Bounty Hunter, point to the player marked KNOW, then put the Bounty Hunter to sleep.

    Empath

    Each night, you learn how many of your 2 alive neighbors are evil.


    My skin prickles. Something is not right here. I can feel it.

    "Each night, you learn how many of your 2 alive neighbors are evil." The Empath keeps learning if their living neighbours are good or evil. The Empath only learns how many of their neighbours are evil, not which one is evil. The Empath does not detect dead players. So, if the Empath is sitting next to a dead player, they do not get info about that dead player. Instead, they get info about the closest alive player in that direction. The Empath acts after the Demon, so if the Demon kills one of the Empath's alive neighbours, the Empath does not learn about the now-dead player. The Empath's information is accurate at dawn, not at dusk.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the Empath. Show them fingers (0, 1, or 2) equaling the number of evil players neighbouring the Empath. Put the Empath to sleep.
  4. Townsfolk

    Chambermaid

    Each night, choose 2 alive players (not yourself): you learn how many woke tonight due to their ability.


    I aint seen nothin' untoward, Milady. Begging your pardon, but if I did see somethin', it certainly weren't the master o' the house sneaking into the professor's laboratory 'round eleven o'clock and mixing up fancy potions, just like you said, Miss.

    "Each night, choose 2 alive players (not yourself): you learn how many woke tonight due to their ability." The Chambermaid learns who woke up at night. Each night, the Chambermaid chooses two players and learns if they woke tonight. They must choose alive players, and may not choose themself. This does not detect which of those players woke, only how many. This ability only detects characters who woke in order to use their ability. It does not detect characters who woke for any other reason—such as if the Storyteller woke a Minion to let them know who the Demon is, woke the Demon to give them their starting Demon info, woke a player due to the ability of a different character, or woke someone accidentally. If the character woke on a previous night but not this night, they are not detected by the Chambermaid. Players that woke tonight due to their ability but are drunk or poisoned still count as having woke tonight. If the Chambermaid chooses a dead player accidentally, the Storyteller prompts them to choose again.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the Chambermaid. They point at any two alive players except themself. Show the Chambermaid fingers (0, 1, or 2) equaling the number of chosen characters who woke tonight. Put the Chambermaid to sleep.
    2. Do not wake the Chambermaid if there are not two players alive to be chosen (due to the Mastermind, Zombuul, etc.).

    Villageidiot3

    Each night, choose a player: you learn their alignment. [+0 to +2 Village Idiots. 1 of the extras is drunk]


    장미는 파랗고, 제비꽃은 빨갛다네. 방금 말 일부러 거꾸로 한거야. 진짜야.

    "매일 밤, 플레이어 1명을 선택하세요. 그 플레이어의 성향을 알게 됩니다. [+0~+2 동네바보. 추가된 동네바보 중 1명은 취해 있습니다.]" 동네바보들은 플레이어의 성향을 알아내는 집단입니다. 취한 동네바보는 게임 세팅 때 이야기꾼이 정합니다. 플레이어 수와 상관없이 동네바보는 1명, 2명, 혹은 3명까지 있을 수 있습니다. 동네바보가 1명뿐이라면 그 플레이어는 취해 있지 않습니다. 취한 동네바보가 참 정보를 받을 수도 있습니다. 세팅 단계에서 동네바보가 추가될 때는 다른 마을주민을 대신합니다. 게임 도중 동네바보가 생기면 한 명만 생깁니다. 동네바보들은 한꺼번에 행동하지 않고, 한 명씩 따로 행동합니다. 멀쩡한 동네바보들이 모두 게임에서 사라져도, 남은 취한 동네바보는 계속 취한 상태입니다. 멀쩡한 동네바보가 다른 이유로 취하거나 중독되더라도, 원래 취한 동네바보는 그대로 취해 있습니다.

    How to Run

    1. 게임을 세팅할 때, 캐릭터 토큰을 주머니에 넣기 전에 마을주민 토큰 0개, 1개, 또는 2개를 동네바보 토큰으로 바꾸세요. 첫날 밤을 준비할 때 동네바보 1명에게 취함 알림을 표시하세요.
    2. 매일 밤, 동네바보를 한 명 깨우세요. 그 플레이어는 플레이어 1명을 가리킵니다. 엄지를 위나 아래로 보여주고 다시 재우세요. 모든 동네바보가 행동할 때까지 반복합니다.

    Innkeeper

    Each night*, choose 2 players: they can't die tonight, but 1 is drunk until dusk.


    Come inside, fair traveller, and rest your weary bones. Drink and be merry, for the legions of the Dark One shall not harass thee tonight.

    "Each night*, choose 2 players: they can't die tonight, but 1 is drunk until dusk." The Innkeeper protects people from death at night, but somebody gets drunk in the process. The Innkeeper, like the Monk, makes players safe from being killed by the Demon. They are also safe from death caused by Outsiders, Minions, Townsfolk, and Travellers. The Innkeeper only protects players at night, not the day. One of the two players that the Innkeeper chooses becomes drunk for tonight and the next day. This player may be good or evil, but will almost always be good, depending how your game is going. An Innkeeper that chooses themself might become drunk, which means they have no ability and may die tonight—and the other player they chose to protect isn’t safe either.

    How to Run

    1. Each night except the first, wake the Innkeeper. They point at any two players. Put the Innkeeper to sleep. Mark the two chosen players with SAFE reminders. One of the chosen players becomes drunk—mark them with the DRUNK reminder. The players marked SAFE cannot die tonight.
    2. At dawn, remove the SAFE reminders.
    3. At dusk, remove the DRUNK reminder.
  7. Townsfolk

    Acrobat

    Each night*, choose a player: if they are or become drunk or poisoned tonight, you die.


    Welcome, one and all, to the greatest show on earth.

    "Each night*, choose a player: if they are or become drunk or poisoned tonight, you die." The Acrobat dies when they find a drunk or poisoned player. Each night except the first, the Acrobat chooses a player. If the chosen player is sober and healthy, nothing happens. If the player is drunk or poisoned, the Acrobat dies. If the Acrobat is drunk or poisoned, they cannot die to their own ability. The Acrobat may choose any player, dead or alive, even themself. If the chosen player is sober and healthy at the time the Acrobat picks, but becomes drunk or poisoned later in the night, the Acrobat dies. The Acrobat does not learn if the player they selected was drunk, or poisoned, or both. The Drunk registers as drunk to the Acrobat.

    How to Run

    1. Each night except the first, wake the Acrobat. They point to a player. Put the Acrobat to sleep.
    2. If the player the Acrobat pointed to is drunk or poisoned, or becomes drunk or poisoned at any time tonight, the Acrobat dies.

    Lycanthrope

    Each night*, choose an alive player. If good, they die & the Demon doesn’t kill tonight. One good player registers as evil.


    Beneath the thin veneer of civilisation lies a howling madness.

    "Each night*, choose an alive player. If good, they die & the Demon doesn’t kill tonight. One good player registers as evil." The Lycanthrope roams at night, killing the innocent, whilst the Demon cowers indoors. The Lycanthrope must choose an alive player each night. If the Lycanthrope chooses a dead player, the Storyteller shakes their head no and prompts the Lycanthrope to choose a different player. If the player that the Lycanthrope chooses is good, that player dies, and the Demon cannot kill tonight. If the player the Lycanthrope attacks is evil, that player does not die, and the Demon may still kill tonight. If the Lycanthrope attacks a good player but that good player doesn’t die, the Demon may still kill tonight. While the Lycanthrope lives, one good player registers as evil. They cannot be killed by the Lycanthrope. This evil-registration does not effect win conditions. The good player that registers as evil still wins or loses with the good team.

    How to Run

    1. During setup, mark one good player with the Lycanthrope’s FAUX PAW reminder.
    2. Each night except the first, wake the Lycanthrope. They point at any player. Put the Lycanthrope to sleep. If the chosen player is good, that player dies—mark them with the Lycanthrope’s DEAD reminder. Later that night, wake the Demon, as normal, but the Demon cannot kill. If the chosen player is evil, nothing happens.
  10. Townsfolk

    Seamstress

    Once per game, at night, choose 2 players (not yourself): you learn if they are the same alignment.


    Did you hear that stranger in the cashmere coat put the word on our young Belle? And she said yes? Well, that's nothing compared to what Harry and that juggler got up to at the fair! The things I could say if I was a tattletale... my, yes.

    "Once per game, at night, choose 2 players (not yourself): you learn if they are the same alignment." The Seamstress learns whether 2 players are on the same team as each other. They only get this information once per game, so they had best choose wisely when and who. They may choose alive or dead players or even Travellers.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the Seamstress. They either shake their head no or point at any two players except themself.
    2. If they shake their head no, nothing happens. Put the Seamstress to sleep.
    3. If they point at two players, either nod your head yes (to indicate these players have the same alignment) or shake your head no (to indicate these players do not have the same alignment). Put the Seamstress to sleep. The Seamstress loses their ability - mark them with the NO ABILITY reminder and remove their night token from the night sheet.
  11. Townsfolk

    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

    1. 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.
    2. 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.
    3. 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.
  12. Townsfolk

    Cannibal

    You have the ability of the recently killed executee. If they are evil, you are poisoned until a good player dies by execution.


    I don’t like clowns. They taste funny.

    "You have the ability of the recently killed executee. If they are evil, you are poisoned until a good player dies by execution." The Cannibal eats executed characters, gaining their ability. If a good player dies by execution, the Cannibal gains that player’s ability. If an evil player dies by execution, the Cannibal only thinks that they gain an ability, since the Cannibal is poisoned. The Storyteller may be lying to them. Each time a player dies by execution, the Cannibal loses the ability of the previous player. Executing a dead player won’t grant the Cannibal an ability. Executing a living player who doesn’t die won’t grant the Cannibal an ability. A player must be executed and die for the Cannibal to gain their ability. The Cannibal is not told which ability they have gained. They must figure that out for themselves. If the Cannibal has an “even if dead” ability, such as the Recluse, or an ability that implies it works while dead, such as the Ravenkeeper or Sweetheart, the Cannibal keeps that ability when they die, but loses their Cannibal ability.

    How to Run

    1. If a good player dies by execution, mark them with the LUNCH reminder, and remove the Cannibal’s POISONED reminder if necessary. The Cannibal now has this good player’s ability (do not say which), and will wake at night when this good character would normally wake.
    2. If an evil player dies by execution, mark them with the LUNCH reminder and mark the Cannibal with the POISONED reminder. The Cannibal is poisoned. You may wake them when this evil character would normally wake, and pretend that they have a new ability.

    Examples & Notes

    • Pay attention to which character each evil player is bluffing as. If they are executed, then their bluffed ability is the best one to pretend that the Cannibal has gained.
  13. Townsfolk

    Ravenkeeper

    If you die at night, you are woken to choose a player: you learn their character.


    My birds will avenge me! Fly! Fly, my sweet and dutiful pets! To the manor and to the river! To the alleys and to the salons! Fly!

    "If you die at night, you are woken to choose a player: you learn their character." If the Ravenkeeper dies at night, they get to learn one player's character. The Ravenkeeper is woken on the night that they die, and chooses a player immediately. The Ravenkeeper may choose a dead player if they wish.

    How to Run

    1. If the Ravenkeeper died tonight, wake them. They point at any player. Show the chosen player's character token to the Ravenkeeper. Put the Ravenkeeper to sleep.
    2. We advise you to discourage or even ban players from talking about what they are doing at night as they are doing it.

  15. Outsider

    Hermit

    You have all Outsider abilities. [-0 or -1 Outsider]


    In the lost and forgotten places of the earth, the soul’s light beckons.

    "You have all Outsider abilities. [-0 or -1 Outsider]" The Hermit isn’t really here. The Hermit has the abilities of all the other Outsiders on the Script, all at once. They do not have the abilities of Outsiders that are not on the script. If a custom script has more than 4 Outsiders, the Hermit has all these Outsider abilities. If one of the Outsider abilities continues after death, such as the Recluse’s, the Hermit keeps that ability when they die, but does not keep their other Outsider abilities. A Hermit with the Drunk ability does not know that they are the Hermit, and their other Outsider abilities function as normal. A Hermit with the Recluse ability can register as a different character etc. If an Outsider has a jinx, that jinx applies to the Hermit too. The Hermit may remove the Hermit from play during setup, resulting in one less Outsider than normal. If this happens, the Hermit may still be a bluff given to the Demon.

    How to Run

    1. During setup, you may remove an Outsider token and add a Townsfolk token.
    2. Whenever appropriate, treat the Hermit as if they are the other Outsiders, including waking them at night, and using other Outsiders’ reminder tokens. If the Hermit duplicates an in-play Outsider, use the Hermit’s 1, 2 and 3 reminders instead.

    Examples & Notes

    • If Outsider abilities clash, make up a rule to fix the clash, and tell the group. For example, for a Hermit-Butler-Zealot, you may declare that the Hermit must vote when their master votes.
  16. Outsider

    Goon

    Each night, the 1st player to choose you with their ability is drunk until dusk. You become their alignment.


    Yes boss. I explained fings real good to dat geezer. He don't want me explain it again. Nah boss, I don't need no doctor - it's only a knife wound. Be right come mornin'

    "Each night, the 1st player to choose you with their ability is drunk until dusk. You become their alignment." The Goon is immune to other characters at night, but keeps changing allegiances. Each night, the first time a player wakes to use their ability and chooses the Goon, that player becomes drunk immediately. Their ability does not work tonight, nor the next day. Later on the same night, if another player wakes to use their ability and chooses the Goon, their ability works as normal. The Goon cannot make a player drunk unless the player chose the Goon. The Storyteller choosing the Goon due to an ability, such as the Grandmother’s, doesn’t count. As soon as the Goon makes a player drunk, the Goon changes alignment to match theirs. The Goon still changes alignment, and makes the player drunk, if the player choosing the Goon was already drunk or poisoned. If chosen by the Assassin, the Goon dies but still turns evil.

    How to Run

    1. At night, if a player chooses to use their ability on the Goon and nobody is marked with the Goon’s DRUNK reminder, this player immediately becomes drunk—mark them with the DRUNK reminder. Finish resolving this player’s ability and put them to sleep. If this player’s alignment is different from the Goon’s alignment, rotate the Goon’s character token—right side up for good, upside-down for evil—to match this player’s alignment, then wake the Goon, give them a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down (indicating their new alignment), then put the Goon to sleep.
    2. The next dusk, the player that the Goon made drunk becomes sober—remove the Goon’s DRUNK reminder.
  17. Outsider

    Ogre

    On your 1st night, choose a player (not yourself): you become their alignment (you don't know which) even if drunk or poisoned.


    <grunt><grin></grunt>

    "On your 1st night, choose a player (not yourself): you become their alignment (you don't know which) even if drunk or poisoned.” The Ogre is someone's best friend. The Ogre's chosen player does not change, even if the Ogre is drunk or poisoned when they chose. The Ogre becomes the same alignment as their chosen player immediately on the first night, even if the Ogre is drunk or poisoned. The Ogre is not told their alignment at the beginning of the game. If the Ogre changes alignment by other means, the Ogre learns their new alignment, as normal. If an Ogre is created mid-game, the Ogre chooses a player that night, and becomes their alignment.

    How to Run

    1. During the first night, wake the Ogre. The Ogre points to a player. Put the Ogre to sleep. If the Ogre pointed to an evil player, flip the Ogre's character token upside down to represent that the Ogre is evil.

    Examples & Notes

    • Optional rule: Mark the Ogre’s chosen player with a FRIEND reminder. The Ogre is always the same alignment as their friend. If the Ogre’s friend changes alignment, the Ogre changes alignment too, but the Ogre does not learn this.
    • This is only recommended for games of 15 players or more, so that there are not too many evil players.
  18. Outsider

    Barber

    If you died today or tonight, the Demon may choose 2 players (not another Demon) to swap characters.


    Did you know that barbery and surgery were once the same profession? No? Well, now you do.

    "If you died today or tonight, the Demon may choose 2 players (not another Demon) to swap characters." The Barber allows the Demon to swap any 2 player's characters. The players’ alignments stay the same when they swap characters. Each player learns which character they become. The Demon may choose not to swap players. If a player becomes a new character, they gain the new ability, even if it was a “you start knowing” ability or a “once per game” ability that the original character already used. If there is more than one living Demon, the Storyteller chooses which Demon makes the swap. The Demon may choose themself to swap. The Demon may not choose another Demon player to swap. If a player dies then becomes the Barber, the Demon may not swap two players’ characters tonight.

    How to Run

    1. If the Barber dies, mark them with the HAIRCUTS TONIGHT reminder.
    2. During that night, wake the Demon. Show them the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token, then the Barber token. The Demon either shakes their head no or points to two players. Put the Demon to sleep. Remove the HAIRCUTS TONIGHT reminder.
    3. If the Demon pointed to two players, swap the character tokens of the chosen players. One at a time, wake each swapped player, show them the YOU ARE info token and their new character token, then put them to sleep. If a player’s alignment does not match the color of their character token, turn it upside-down.

    Examples & Notes

    • If a good player becomes a Minion or Demon, or an evil player becomes a Townsfolk or Outsider, you may wish to remind them that their alignment has not changed.

    Harpy

    Each night, choose 2 players: tomorrow, the 1st player is mad that the 2nd is evil, or one or both might die.


    So fair a day I never did see, nor so fowl a presence hanging over me.

    "Each night, choose 2 players: tomorrow, the 1st player is mad that the 2nd is evil, or one or both might die." The Harpy creates discord and distrust between good players. At night, the Harpy player chooses one player at a time, not two at once. A player chosen by the Harpy is affected by the ability until the next Harpy choice. If the Storyteller decides to kill players with the Harpy ability, they do not need to kill both. The Storyteller can decide to kill only one, or none. The Harpy can choose a dead player. If so, the Storyteller can kill just the living player, since dead players can not die again. The order of deaths due to the Harpy ability can be chosen by the Storyteller, should that be important.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the Harpy. The Harpy points to one player, then another player. Mark the first player with the MAD reminder and the second player with the 2ND reminder. Put the Harpy to sleep. Wake the player marked MAD. Show the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token then the Harpy token, then point to the player marked 2ND. Put the player marked “Mad” to sleep.

    Witch

    Each night, choose a player: if they nominate tomorrow, they die. If just 3 players live, you lose this ability.


    Three drops of goat's blood. A lock of hair, torn in anger. The name is spoken, the shadow cast. Walk left foot first down that brambled path, and don't look back.

    "Each night, choose a player: if they nominate tomorrow, they die. If just 3 players live, you lose this ability." The Witch curses players, so that they die if they nominate. Each night, the Witch chooses a player to curse. That player dies if they nominate any player on the next day, although their nomination still counts. The Witch’s curse lasts only for one day, but the Witch may curse the same player again and again each night. As soon as just three players are left alive, the Witch’s curse is immediately removed, and the Witch acts no more.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the Witch. They point at any player. Put the Witch to sleep. Mark the chosen player with the CURSED reminder.
    2. The next day, if the player marked CURSED makes a nomination, immediately declare that they die. (Nominations continue as normal.)
  22. Minion

    Marionette

    You think you are a good character, but you are not. The Demon knows who you are. [You neighbor the Demon]


    Words, words. They're all we have to go on.

    "You think you are a good character, but you are not. The Demon knows who you are. [You neighbor the Demon]" The Marionette doesn't know that they are a Minion. The Marionette draws either a Townsfolk or an Outsider token from the bag, but is secretly the Marionette. The Marionette neighbors the Demon. There are no players sitting in between the Marionette and the Demon. The Demon knows which player is the Marionette. On the first night, the Marionette does not wake to learn the other evil players, and the other Minions do not learn the Marionette. The good ability that the Marionette thinks they have doesn’t work, but the Storyteller pretends it does. It is just as if this player is the Drunk. The Marionette registers as evil, and as a Minion.

    How to Run

    1. While setting up the game, before putting tokens in the bag, remove the Marionette token and add any Townsfolk token.
    2. If there are three Minions in play, remove another Minion token and add another Townsfolk token. During the first night, swap a good player’s character token with a not-in-play Minion character token. Wake this player, show them the YOU ARE info token then their Minion character token, then the YOU ARE info token then a thumbs down, then put them to sleep. This player is now an evil Minion. (This ensures that only one Minion token is in the bag, so at least one good player will neighbor the Demon.)
    3. During the first night, mark a good player neighboring the Demon with the IS THE MARIONETTE reminder. Wake the Demon. Point to the player marked IS THE MARIONETTE and show the Marionette character token. Put the Demon to sleep.
    4. Treat the Marionette as if they were drunk. They wake when their good character would wake, may get false information, do not wake during the Minion Info step etc.
  23. Demon

    Pukka

    Each night, choose a player: they are poisoned. The previously poisoned player dies then becomes healthy.


    You truly have been kind welcoming me into your beautiful home. I am so sorry I accidentally scratched you. A little thing. No matter. But please, take this golden toothpick as a humble token of my regret.

    "Each night, choose a player: they are poisoned. The previously poisoned player dies then becomes healthy." The Pukka poisons its victims, who die at a later time. When the Pukka attacks, their victim is poisoned immediately. The next night, just after the Pukka attacks again, that player dies. Unlike other Demons, the Pukka acts during the first night. The Exorcist prevents the Pukka from waking to poison a player. The Innkeeper prevents the Pukka from killing a poisoned player, then that player is no longer poisoned. If the Pukka is drunk and chooses a player, that player does not become poisoned, so does not die the following night. If the Pukka was sober when they chose a player the previous night, but is drunk at night, that player does not die. But when the Pukka sobers up, the poison resumes and kills the player at night.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the Pukka. They point at any player. Put the Pukka to sleep. The chosen player is poisoned—mark them with a POISONED reminder.
    2. Each night except the first, the other player marked POISONED dies—mark them with a DEAD reminder, then remove their POISONED reminder.

    Examples & Notes

    • Players that the Pukka kills are still poisoned at their time of death. If you are using characters from other editions, you may need to keep the POISONED reminder by the DEAD reminder until their death ability is resolved. For example, if the Pukka kills the Sage, the Sage may get false information due to being poisoned by the Pukka.

    By the sins of Arnoch, I feel thy laden stench. By the curs-ed sun and her foul legion of tiny grinning gods, I corrupt thee. By the blessed night and the hidden depths of the horrid and unholy sea, I end thy squalid life upon this plane.

    "Each night*, choose a player: they die. Your 2 Townsfolk neighbors are poisoned." The No Dashii poisons their neighboring Townsfolk. The No Dashii’s closest clockwise and counterclockwise Townsfolk neighbors are poisoned, regardless of whether they are alive or dead. If a No Dashii dies or otherwise loses their ability, then those two players become healthy. Two Townsfolk players will always be poisoned this way, as neighboring Outsiders, Minions, or Travellers are skipped. If a new player becomes the No Dashii, or a poisoned Townsfolk changes into a non-Townsfolk character, the players who are poisoned may change immediately based on who the neighbors of the No Dashii are.

    How to Run

    1. While preparing the first night, the two Townsfolk neighboring the No Dashii become poisoned - mark them with POISONED reminders.
    2. If a Townsfolk poisoned by the No Dashii becomes a non-Townsfolk character, or the No Dashii turns into a different character, or if a new player becomes the No Dashii, the new neighbors of the No Dashii become poisoned, and the old neighbors become healthy - move the No Dashii’s POISONED reminders immediately if needed.
    3. Each night except the first, wake the No Dashii. They point at any player. That player dies - mark them with the DEAD reminder. Put the No Dashii to sleep.

    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

    1. 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.

    Po

    Each night*, you may choose a player: they die. If your last choice was no-one, choose 3 players tonight.


    Would you like a flower? I'm so lonely.

    "Each night*, you may choose a player: they die. If your last choice was no-one, choose 3 players tonight." The Po can choose to attack nobody at night, but goes on a rampage the following night. The Po attacks one player per night, like many other Demons. However, if the Po chooses to attack nobody, then they may attack three players the following night. If the Po was drunk or poisoned when they chose nobody last night, they still choose three players tonight. A Po must choose three players when prompted to do so. They cannot choose no one again. The Po only gets three attacks if they chose nobody. The Po does not get three attacks if they chose to attack someone the previous night, but that player did not die. The Po doesn’t act on the first night, but this night does not count as a night where the Po “chose no one.” If the Exorcist selects the Po, the Po does not act, but this night does not count as a night where the Po “chose no one.” However, if the Po chose no one the night before the Exorcist chose the Po, the Po chooses three players the night after the Exorcist chose the Po, because their last choice was no one.

    How to Run

    1. Each night except the first, wake the Po. They either shake their head no or point at any player. Put the Po to sleep. If they shook their head no, mark the Po with the 3 ATTACKS reminder. If they chose a player, that player dies—mark them with a DEAD reminder.
    2. If the Po wakes to act while marked 3 ATTACKS, they point at any three players, one at a time. In the order chosen, each chosen player dies—mark them with DEAD reminders. Remove the 3 ATTACKS reminder.

    Sentinel

    There might be 1 extra or 1 fewer Outsider in play.


    Name, please. Papers, please. Weapons, please.

    "There might be 1 extra or 1 fewer Outsider in play." Add the Sentinel to your script to keep the number of Outsiders in play mysterious. The official character lists are carefully constructed so that the number of Outsiders is never completely known, which lets evil players safely bluff as Outsiders. Many of the games you create using the Script Tool will not have this luxury. If, for one reason or another, the number of Outsiders in a game will become certain, the Storyteller can add a Sentinel. This will confuse matters and help the evil team either bluff as Outsiders or make existing Outsiders look suspicious. Games with a Sentinel in play might have one more Outsider than normal. They may have one less. They may have the normal amount. It is up to the Storyteller.

    How to Run

    1. At the start of the game, declare that the Sentinel is in play. Add the Sentinel token to the Grimoire.
    2. While setting up the game, before putting character tokens in the bag, add an Outsider token and remove a Townsfolk token, remove an Outsider token and add a Townsfolk token, or do neither.
