  2. Townsfolk

    Alchemist

    You have a Minion ability. When using this, the Storyteller may prompt you to choose differently.

    Visit the interior of the Earth. By rectification thou shalt find the hidden stone. Above the gold, lieth the red. Kether in Malkuth.

    "You have a Minion ability. When using this, the Storyteller may prompt you to choose differently." The Alchemist has a Minion ability. The Alchemist’s ability is usually that of a not-in-play Minion, but can duplicate an in-play Minion ability. The Alchemist learns which ability this is on the first night. They are still a good Townsfolk. They win when good wins, and lose when good loses. They register as good and as the Alchemist. The Alchemist does not wake to learn who the other Minions are or who the Demon is, like Minions do. If the Alchemist’s Minion ability adds or removes characters during setup, this still occurs during setup. If the Alchemist has an ability where the player chooses something, like the Poisoner or the Vizier, the Storyteller may ask the Alchemist to choose differently. The Alchemist must do so.

    How to Run

    1. During the first night, wake the Alchemist. Show the YOU ARE info token then the character token of a Minion. Put the Alchemist to sleep. If the Alchemist has a not-in-play Minion ability, mark the Alchemist with the IS THE ALCHEMIST reminder and swap the Alchemist token with this Minion token and turn it upside down. (This shows they are still good.)
    2. The Alchemist has this Minion ability. They use it as if they were a Minion, and wake at night when that Minion would normally wake to use their ability.
    3. If the Alchemist makes a choice using their ability, you may ask them to choose differently. If this is during the day, ask verbally. If this is during the night, shake your head, point at the Alchemist ability text on the character sheet, and wait for the Alchemist to choose again.

  3. Townsfolk

    Grandmother

    You start knowing a good player & their character. If the Demon kills them, you die too.

    Take a jacket if you go outside, dearie. And your thermos. And your scarf. I have a weak heart, you know. Whatever would I do if you caught cold...or worse?

    "You start knowing a good player & their character. If the Demon kills them, you die too." The Grandmother knows who their grandchild is, but if they are killed by the Demon, the Grandmother dies too. During the first night, the Grandmother learns their Grandchild—a good player who is a Townsfolk or Outsider. The Grandchild does not learn that they have a Grandmother. If the Demon kills the Grandchild, the Grandmother dies too. If the Grandchild dies by any other means—such as execution, or another type of death at night—the Grandmother does not also die.

    How to Run

    1. When preparing the first night, choose a Grandchild by marking any good character with the GRANDCHILD reminder.
    2. During the first night, wake the Grandmother and show them the character token marked GRANDCHILD, then point at the Grandchild player, then put the Grandmother to sleep.
    3. If the Demon kills the Grandchild, the Grandmother dies - mark them with the DEAD reminder.

  4. Townsfolk

    Fortune Teller

    Each night, choose 2 players: you learn if either is a Demon. There is a good player that registers as a Demon to you.

    I sense great evil in your soul! But... that could just be your perfume. I am allergic to Elderberry.

    "Each night, choose 2 players: you learn if either is a Demon. There is a good player that registers as a Demon to you." The Fortune Teller detects who the Demon is, but sometimes thinks good players are Demons. Each night, the Fortune Teller chooses two players and learns if at least one of them is a Demon. They do not learn which of them is a Demon, just that one of them is. If neither is the Demon, they learn this instead. Unfortunately, one player, called the Red Herring, will register as a Demon to the Fortune Teller if chosen. The Red Herring is the same player throughout the entire game. This player may be any good player, even the Fortune Teller themself, and the Fortune Teller does not know which player it is. The Fortune Teller may choose any two players—alive or dead, or even themself. If they choose a dead Demon, then the Fortune Teller still receives a nod.

    How to Run

    1. While preparing the first night, put the Fortune Teller's RED HERRING reminder token by any good character token, marking that player as the Red Herring.
    2. Each night, wake the Fortune Teller. The Fortune Teller points at any two players. If either chosen player is a Demon or the Red Herring, nod your head yes. Otherwise, shake your head no. Put the Fortune Teller to sleep.
    3. In smaller games, making the Fortune Teller their own Red Herring is sometimes advised, as the Fortune Teller gets more information that way.

  5. Townsfolk

    Undertaker

    Each night*, you learn which character died by execution today.

    Hmmm....what have we here? The left boot is worn down to the heel, with flint shavings under the tongue. This is the garb of a Military man.

    "Each night*, you learn which character died by execution today." The Undertaker learns which character was executed today. The player must have died from execution for the Undertaker to learn who they are. Deaths during the day for other reasons, such as the Gunslinger choosing a player to kill, or the exile of a Traveller, do not count. The Undertaker wakes each night except the first, as there have been no executions yet. If nobody died today, the Undertaker learns nothing. The Storyteller either does not wake the Undertaker at night, or wakes them but does not show a token. If the Drunk is executed, the Undertaker is shown the Drunk character token, not the token for the Townsfolk that the Drunk player thought they were.

    How to Run

    1. If a player dies by execution, put the Undertaker's DIED TODAY reminder token by the dead player's character token.
    2. Each night except the first, if any player died by execution today, wake the Undertaker. Show the character token marked DIED TODAY to the Undertaker. Put the Undertaker to sleep. Remove the Undertaker's reminder token when convenient.
    3. In Trouble Brewing, there can only be one execution per day, and every execution causes a player to die. In other editions, there may be more than one execution per day (in which case the Storyteller chooses which character to show the Undertaker) or the execution does not cause a death (in which case the Undertaker learns nothing).

  6. Townsfolk

    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

    Gambler

    Each night*, choose a player & guess their character: if you guess wrong, you die.

    Heads, I win. Tails, you lose.

    "Each night*, choose a player & guess their character: if you guess wrong, you die." The Gambler can guess who is who... but pays the ultimate price if they guess wrong. Each night except the first, the Gambler chooses a player and guesses their character by pointing to its icon on the character sheet. If the guess is correct, nothing happens. If the guess is incorrect, the Gambler dies. The Gambler does not learn from the Storyteller whether their guess is correct or incorrect. The Gambler may choose any player, dead or alive, even themself.

    How to Run

    1. Each night except the first, wake the Gambler. They point at any player, then point at any character icon on their character sheet. Put the Gambler to sleep. If the chosen player is a different character from the chosen character icon, the Gambler dies—mark them with the DEAD reminder.

  8. Townsfolk

    Gossip

    Each day, you may make a public statement. Tonight, if it was true, a player dies.

    Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Blah.

    "Each day, you may make a public statement. Tonight, if it was true, a player dies." The Gossip deliberately speaks lies, in the hope of uncovering the truth. Each day, the Gossip may make a public statement. If this statement is true, the Storyteller kills a player that night. If it is false, then no players die due to the Gossip. Mumbled words, whispers, statements the Storyteller doesn’t know are true or false, or statements that someone cannot hear don’t count. Like the Slayer’s ability, the Storyteller and every player must be able to hear and understand the Gossip and be aware that the Gossip is using their ability in order for the Storyteller to judge what happens next. If the Gossip made a true statement during the day while drunk or poisoned, but is sober and healthy when their ability triggers that night, the Storyteller still kills a player.

    How to Run

    1. Each day, if the Gossip makes a definite, true public statement, put the Gossip’s DEAD reminder in the center of the left side of the Grimoire as a reminder to yourself to place it tonight.
    2. Each night except the first, if the Gossip made a definite, true public statement today, you choose any player. The chosen player dies—mark them with the DEAD reminder.

    Examples & Notes

    • When choosing a player to die due to the Gossip ability, we recommend that you choose a character that will actually die, not one protected from death by an ability (like the Fool or Tea Lady). The Gossip gains knowledge when their statement caused a death. This is more helpful to the good team, and more fun for everyone.

  9. Townsfolk

    Savant

    Each day, you may visit the Storyteller to learn 2 things in private: 1 is true & 1 is false.

    Seventy-two matchsticks on the floor... the sun sets early but the moon is unchanged... a torn piece of cloth... evil in the manor house... three by three... the one we trusted is not what he seems... green light means magnesium... residue, but the pattern is wrong... Seventy-two matchsticks on the floor...

    "Each day, you may visit the Storyteller to learn 2 things in private: 1 is true & 1 is false." The Savant gets crazy, amazing information that is different every day and every game, but exactly half of it is completely false. Each day, the Storyteller chooses two pieces of information to give the Savant... so get creative! One must be true, and one must be false, and the Savant won’t know which is which. It is up to the Savant 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. The Savant can choose to not visit the Storyteller if they wish. A drunk or poisoned Savant might get two pieces of true information or two pieces of false information.

    How to Run

    1. Once per day, if the Savant requests a private chat with you, take them away from the circle so you cannot be overheard. Whisper two pieces of information, one true and one false, to the Savant. (If you cannot think of two straight away, either take your time or ask them to come back in a few minutes.)

    Examples & Notes

    • Keep the information you give helpful and related to the game. Avoid saying who exactly the Demon is, or it could be a very short game. If you need help on choosing what to say, give information similar to what Townsfolk abilities would provide.

  10. Townsfolk

    Engineer

    Once per game, at night, choose which Minions or which Demon is in play.

    If it bends, great. If it breaks, well, it probably needed fixing anyway.

    "Once per game, at night, choose which Minions or which Demon is in play." The Engineer manufactures the threat that the town faces. The Engineer can choose which Minion characters are in play, or which Demon is in play, but not both. When the Engineer creates new in-play characters, the Demon player remains the Demon, and the Minion players remain Minions. The number of evil players stays the same. If the Engineer tries to create an in-play character, that character stays as the same player. The Engineer doesn’t learn this, and may not use their ability again. If creating Minions, the Engineer chooses the same number of Minions that should be in play for the number of players (see the Traveller sheet or the setup sheet). If the Engineer accidentally chooses too many or too few characters, the Storyteller changes as many evil players’ characters as is fair and feasible. Only characters from the current script may be chosen.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the Engineer. They either shake their head no or point at evil characters on the character sheet.
    2. If they shake their head no, nothing happens. Put the Engineer to sleep.
    3. If they point to a Demon or Minions on their character sheet, put them to sleep. Swap all appropriate character tokens with new character tokens. Wake each evil player that changed character, show the YOU ARE info token, then their new character token, then put them to sleep. The Engineer loses their ability—mark them with the NO ABILITY reminder and remove their night token from the night sheet.

  11. 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.

  12. Townsfolk

    Juggler

    On your 1st day, publicly guess up to 5 players' characters. That night, you learn how many you got correct.

    For my next trick, as per request, I will need a flower, a bag of beans, a toy snake, a paintbrush, and a motorized gasoline-powered hedge trimming device. I warn you, this trick may be my last. Oh dear.

    "On your 1st day, publicly guess up to 5 players' characters. That night, you learn how many you got correct." The Juggler takes the risk of convincing people to reveal their characters on the 1st day, in the hope of guessing as many as possible that are telling the truth. On the first day, they may guess which players are which characters. That night, the Juggler learns how many guesses they got right...if they are not killed beforehand. They must make their guesses publicly, so everyone hears what is guessed. They may guess zero characters, or up to five characters, and these characters and players may be different or the same. If the Juggler made their guesses while drunk or poisoned, but is sober and healthy when their ability triggers that night, then the Storyteller still gives them true information.

    How to Run

    1. During the first day, if the Juggler declares that they are using their ability, then you enter the circle, holding the Grimoire. The Juggler can make up to five guesses, each of any one player and any one character. For each correct guess, mark the Juggler with a CORRECT reminder. (Make sure the players don’t see how many reminders you’re placing.)
    2. That night, wake the Juggler. Show them fingers (0, 1, 2, etc.) equaling the number of CORRECT reminders. Put the Juggler to sleep. Remove the CORRECT reminders and the Juggler’s night token when convenient.

    Examples & Notes

    • If the Juggler is guessing too fast, prompt them to slow down.
    • If an evil player is bluffing as the Juggler, it can help their bluff if you pretend to move tokens around the Grimoire as they make their fake guesses.

  13. Townsfolk

    Soldier

    You are safe from the Demon.

    As David said to Goliath, as Theseus said to the Minotaur, as Arjuna said to Bhagadatta... No.

    "You are safe from the Demon." The Soldier can not be killed by the Demon. The Soldier cannot die from the Demon's ability. So, if the Imp attacks the Soldier at night, nothing happens. Nobody dies. The Imp does not get to choose another player to attack instead. The Soldier can still die by execution, even if the nominator was the Demon. The Soldier is protected from the Demon's ability to kill, not the actions of the Demon player.

    How to Run

    1. During the night, if the Demon attacks the Soldier, the Soldier remains alive. (At dawn, declare that no one died at night.)
    2. In other editions, Demons may have abilities other than killing. The Soldier is also protected from all other harmful effects of the Demon's ability, such as poisoning or turning the Soldier evil.

  14. Townsfolk

    Magician

    The Demon thinks you are a Minion. Minions think you are a Demon.

    1... 2... Abra... 3... 4... Cadabra... poof! And, as you can see, ladies and gentlemen, Captain Farnsworth’s bag of gold has disappeared! Gone! Without a trace! Thank you, and goodnight!

    "The Demon thinks you are a Minion. Minions think you are a Demon." The Magician confuses the evil players about who is evil and who isn’t. On the first night, instead of learning which player is the Demon, the Minions are told that both players—the Demon and the Magician—are the Demon. On the first night, the Demon learns that the Magician player is one of its Minions. The Magician does not wake to learn anything. The Storyteller can point to the Magician and the evil players in any order, so that the evil players won’t know which player is the Magician. If the Poppy Grower dies and the Demon and Minions learn who each other are mid-game, the Magician ability has an effect that night, just as if it was the first night.

    How to Run

    1. During the first night, wake the Minions. Show them the THIS IS THE DEMON info token, then point to the Demon and the Magician. Put the Minions to sleep.
    2. During the first night, wake the Demon. Show the THESE ARE YOUR MINIONS info token, then point to all Minions and the Magician. Show the THESE CHARACTERS ARE NOT IN PLAY info token and three character tokens. Put the Demon to sleep.
    3. Do this instead of the normal Minion Info and Demon Info steps.

  15. Outsider

    Tinker

    You might die at any time.

    I think I see the problem. Luckily, I have an idea! This catapult will shoot twice as far with just a minor adjustment...

    "You might die at any time." The Tinker can die at any time, for no reason. The Storyteller may kill the Tinker at any time. The Tinker cannot die from their ability while protected from death, as normal.

    How to Run

    1. At any time, you may decide that the Tinker dies. If this is during the day, immediately declare that the Tinker has died. If this is during the night, mark the Tinker with the DEAD reminder and wait until dawn to declare which players died during the night. (Do not say how.)

    Examples & Notes

    • While you may kill the Tinker out of the blue during the day, it is most interesting if the Tinker dies at night, because the players will be wondering whether the Tinker died due to their ability or for some other reason.
    • You can choose to never kill the Tinker. This makes the Tinker look really suspicious.
    • We recommend that you never kill the Tinker when it would end the game. Players should win or lose by their own efforts, not Storyteller fiat.

  16. Outsider

    Golem

    You may only nominate once per game. When you do, if the nominee is not the Demon, they die.

    Golem help? Golem smash! Golem help.

    "You may only nominate once per game. When you do, if the nominee is not the Demon, they die." The Golem kills the player they nominate. When the Golem nominates a player, that player immediately dies. The nomination process continues. If the Golem nominates the Demon, nothing happens. The Storyteller doesn’t confirm or deny that the Golem nominated, and continues with the voting process as normal. The Storyteller may say “nothing happens” if clarity is asked for. After the Golem has nominated once, whether or not the nominee dies, the Golem may not nominate again this game. It is the player’s responsibility to refrain from nominating, not the Storyteller’s. Deliberately nominating when they shouldn’t is considered cheating.

    How to Run

    1. If the Golem nominates a non-Demon, that player dies, then the vote continues as normal. Mark the Golem with the MAY NOT NOMINATE reminder.
    2. If the Golem nominates the Demon, the vote continues as normal. (Do not say why.) Mark the Golem with the MAY NOT NOMINATE reminder.

    Examples & Notes

    • If the Golem accidentally nominates when they shouldn’t, you can either accept or not accept the nomination. It is best to not accept the nomination—as long as you think that this won’t confirm that a Golem is in play. To keep things fair, also do this for players bluffing as the Golem, reminding them that the Golem cannot nominate more than once.

  17. 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

    1. 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.
    2. 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.)
    3. 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.)

  18. Outsider

    Recluse

    You might register as evil & as a Minion or Demon, even if dead.

    Garn git ya darn grub ya mitts ofma lorn yasee. Grr. Natsy pikkins yonder southwise ye begittin afta ya! Git! Me harvy no so widda licks and demmons no be fightin' hadsup ne'er ma kin. Git, assay!

    "You might register as evil & as a Minion or Demon, even if dead." The Recluse might appear to be an evil character, but is actually good. Whenever the Recluse's alignment is detected, the Storyteller chooses whether the Recluse registers as good or evil. Whenever the Recluse is targeted by an ability that affects specific Minions or Demons, the Storyteller chooses whether the Recluse registers as that specific Minion or Demon. The Recluse may register as either good or evil, or as an Outsider, Minion, or Demon, at different parts of the same night. The Storyteller chooses whatever is most interesting. A Recluse that registers as a particular Minion or Demon does not have this character's ability. For example, a Recluse that registers as a Poisoner does not wake at night and cannot poison a player.

    How to Run

    1. Each time the Recluse is targeted by an ability that detects or affects evil characters, choose which character and alignment the Recluse registers as. (Do whatever is appropriate, such as showing an evil character token, nodding, giving finger signals, or allowing an ability to work that would normally only affect evil, Minion, or Demon players.)

  19. Outsider

    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

    1. During the first night, wake each Minion. Show the Damsel token. Put each Minion to sleep.
    2. 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.
    3. 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.

  20. Minion

    Godfather

    You start knowing which Outsiders are in play. If 1 died today, choose a player tonight: they die. [-1 or +1 Outsider]

    Normally, it's just business. But when you insult my daughter, you insult me. And when you insult me, you insult my family. You really should be more careful - it would be a shame if you had an unfortunate accident.

    "You start knowing which Outsiders are in play. If 1 died today, choose a player tonight: they die. [-1 or +1 Outsider]" The Godfather takes revenge when the town kills Outsiders. Whenever an Outsider is executed and dies, the Godfather chooses one player to die that night. The Godfather only kills if an Outsider dies during the day. Outsiders that die at night don’t count. If the Godfather is in play, this adds or removes one Outsider from play. At the start of the game, the Godfather learns which Outsiders are in play. If two Outsiders died today, the Godfather still only kills one player tonight.

    How to Run

    1. While setting up the game, before putting the character tokens in the bag, either remove one Townsfolk and add one Outsider or remove one Outsider and add one Townsfolk.
    2. During the first night, wake the Godfather. Show them the character tokens of all Outsiders in play. Put the Godfather to sleep.
    3. If an Outsider dies during the day, mark them with the DIED TODAY reminder. That night, wake the Godfather. They point at any player. Put the Godfather to sleep. The chosen player dies—mark them with the DEAD reminder.

  21. Minion

    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

    Scarlet Woman

    If there are 5 or more players alive & the Demon dies, you become the Demon. (Travellers don't count.)

    You have shown me the secrets of the Council of the Purple Flame. We have lain together in fire and in lust and in beastly commune, and I am forever your servant. But tonight, my dear, I am your master.

    "If there are 5 or more players alive & the Demon dies, you become the Demon. (Travellers don't count.)" The Scarlet Woman becomes the Demon when the Demon dies. If there are five or more players just before the Demon dies—that is, four or more players left alive after the Demon dies—then the Scarlet Woman immediately becomes the Demon, and the game continues as if nothing happened. Travellers do not count as players when seeing if the Scarlet Woman's ability triggers. If less than five players are alive when the Demon is executed, then the game ends and good wins. If five or more players are alive when the Imp kills themself at night, the Scarlet Woman must become the new Imp. If the Scarlet Woman becomes the Demon, they are that Demon in every way. Good wins if they are executed. They attack each night. They register as the Demon.

    How to Run

    1. If the Demon dies and there were five or more alive players immediately before the Demon died, replace the Scarlet Woman token with a spare Imp token, changing that player's character from the Scarlet Woman into the Imp. (They are now the Demon and have the Imp's ability. If they die, good wins.)
    2. That night, wake the new Imp, show them the YOU ARE info token, then show them the Imp token.
    3. In Trouble Brewing, there is only one Demon—the Imp. In other editions, there are multiple possible Demons. If the Scarlet Woman becomes the Demon, they become the same type of Demon that died, and they gain this Demon's ability. When this happens, mark the Scarlet Woman with the IS THE DEMON reminder and refer to that Demon's "How to Run" instructions.

    Boomdandy

    If you are executed, all but 3 players die. After a 10 to 1 countdown, the player with the most players pointing at them, dies.

    Tick... Tick... Tick... TOCK.

    "If you are executed, all but 3 players die. After a 10 to 1 countdown, the player with the most players pointing at them, dies." The Boomdandy explodes when executed, killing most other players. If the Boomdandy is executed, the Storyteller kills other players, one at a time, until only three are left alive. The Demon will be one of the remaining three players (otherwise, the game would be over). Afterward, there is no further nomination or execution today. Instead, the Storyteller counts down from ten and all players point at the player they want to die. When the countdown ends, the Storyteller counts the number of fingers pointed at each player. If it is a tie, the day ends (and evil probably wins due to the Demon killing that night). Even dead players who have no vote token may point. Players may change who they are pointing at up until the countdown ends, at which point their decision is final. The Boomdandy only explodes due to an execution. Deaths by other means, such as via a Golem or a Psychopath, don’t count. If the Boomdandy is executed but doesn’t die (due to a Devil’s Advocate etc.), they still explode. If a character can’t die, such as the Fool or the Sailor, the Storyteller may rule that four players remain alive after a Boomdandy explosion.

    How to Run

    1. If the Boomdandy is executed, declare that the Boomdandy has exploded. Enter the circle, put your hand out towards the Boomdandy, and rotate around the circle. (Similar to running a vote.) When your hand reaches a living player, say “You live” or say “You die” as that player dies. When you have completed the circle, three players will be alive, including the Demon. Then, count down from ten. After you say “one”, ask all players to immediately freeze (to stay still) while you count the number of players who are pointing at each player. The player with the most fingers pointed at them, dies. This will end the game, since just two players are alive, so declare which team has won.

    Examples & Notes

    • Your countdown should be longer than ten seconds, and as slow, dramatic, or erratic as you like!

  24. Demon

    No Dashii

    Each night*, choose a player: they die. Your 2 Townsfolk neighbors are poisoned.

    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.

  25. 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

    1. While the Vortox is alive, you must give false information whenever a Townsfolk ability prompts you to give information.
    2. 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.
    3. Each dusk, if no player was executed today, the game ends and the evil team wins.

  26. Demon

    Legion12

    Each night*, a player might die. Executions fail if only evil voted. You register as a Minion too. [Most players are Legion]

    우리는 겨울날의 차가운 바람이다. 우리는 달 없는 밤의 그림자다. 우리는 네 찻잔 속 독이며, 네 귓가의 속삭임이다. 우리는 어디에나 있다.

    "매일 밤*, 플레이어 1명이 죽을 수도 있습니다. 악 플레이어만 투표했다면 처형은 실패합니다. 당신은 하수인으로도 판정됩니다. [대부분의 플레이어는 군단입니다]" 군단은 여러 명의 악마입니다. 권장되는 선과 악의 인원 수는 보통과 정반대입니다. 예를 들어 10인 게임이라면, 대략 군단 7명과 선 플레이어 3명 정도로 구성됩니다. 군단이 아닌 플레이어들은 마을주민과 외지인이 어떤 비율이든 섞여 있을 수 있습니다. 지명에 적어도 선 플레이어 1명이 투표했고, 그 결과 누군가가 죽기 직전이 되었다면 처형은 평소처럼 진행됩니다. 반대로 악 플레이어만 투표했다면, 그 지명의 투표 수는 0표로 취급됩니다. 각 군단 플레이어는 악마이면서 동시에 하수인으로도 판정됩니다. 밤마다 누가 죽을지는 이야기꾼이 정합니다. 살아 있는 선 플레이어가 단 한 명만 남았다면, 선은 더 이상 이길 수 없으므로 이야기꾼은 악의 승리를 선언할 수 있습니다. 이야기꾼은 군단 플레이어들에게 허풍용 캐릭터를 주지 않기로 결정할 수도 있습니다.

    How to Run

    1. 첫날 밤 악마 정보 단계에서, 모든 군단 플레이어가 서로 눈을 마주치게 하세요. 필요하다면 군단이 아닌 플레이어들을 손으로 가리켜 군단이 누가 선인지 알 수 있게 해도 됩니다.
    2. 첫날 밤을 제외한 매일 밤, 플레이어 1명이 죽도록 정할 수 있습니다.
    3. 투표를 셀 때는 평소처럼 큰 소리로 수를 세세요. 누군가가 죽기 직전이 될 만큼 표가 나왔더라도 악 플레이어만 투표했다면, 그 지명의 투표 수는 0표라고 선언하세요.

    Examples & Notes

    • 대부분의 밤에는 선 플레이어보다 군단 플레이어를 죽이는 편이 좋습니다. 선 플레이어를 죽이면 보통 악 팀에 너무 유리해집니다. 목표는 생존자가 3명 남는 상황, 즉 선 2명과 군단 1명이 남는 구도를 만드는 것입니다. 마지막 날에 플레이어들이 처형하지 않았다면, 그날 밤 선 플레이어 1명을 죽여 악이 승리하게 하세요.
    • 플레이어들이 "정말 0표가 되는지 시험해 보겠다"며 서로에게 투표를 강요한다면, 0표 지명도 성공한 것처럼 선언하되 실제로는 누가 진짜 죽기 직전인지 비밀리에 기록해 둘 수도 있습니다. 군단의 곧 죽음 알림을 표시해 두었다가 지명 단계가 끝난 뒤 그 플레이어를 처형하면, 군단 게임 특유의 미스터리와 긴장감을 더 잘 살릴 수 있습니다.
