Do You Trust Me?

Full Script

Notes

I wanted to focus on the idea of the Nightwatchman being confirmed to one player, so I used mostly roles that have singular confirmation chains and need to rely on forming social trust. Some of the other roles that I think exemplify that are: - Grandmother and Pixie both 'confirm' a single good player in their own way but could be the Widow - Gambler requires someone to trust them with their role - Hunstman/Damsel has both players trying to locate someone, but with no way to confirm anyone for themselves - Saint and Goblin are self explanatory - Legion will cause concern around nominations and voting, as well as the standard Legion paranoia - Vigormortis and Imp means that people who die in the night could very likely be evil Throw in the Alchemist, Marionette, and Snake Charmer and everyone will be trying to get a social read on each other and those confirmations from abilities like the Nightwatchman's will be essential for good to solve.
