The Outsiders

Full Script

TPHG

Notes

This script is based around Demons which can present as similar and alter the outsider count, while encouraging outsiders to remain hidden. Town will have to work to figure out which Demon is at large, countering misinformation and tricky outsiders along the way. There are many interesting possible interactions on this script, but one of my favorite is the potential for the Storyteller to gain the Boffin ability via the Plague Doctor. If this occurred in a Legion game, the Storyteller could (rules as written) cycle different Boffin abilities through each Legion.
