A take on Leviathan with Boomdandy. Aside from causing an abrupt ending to the game, Boomdandy gives the good team an extra chance if executed on day 5, creating an interesting social dynamic on the part of the Boomdandy player.

You start knowing 2 players that are not the Demon.
When a man lies, he murders some part of the world.
"You start knowing 2 players that are not the Demon." The Knight knows players that are not the Demon. On the first night, the Knight learns two players who are not the Demon. On subsequent nights, they learn nothing more. The Knight can learn Townsfolk, Outsiders or even Minions but does not learn which character type they are.
Townsfolk
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.
Townsfolk
You start knowing if your closest evil player is clockwise or anti-clockwise. If equidistant, this info is arbitrary.
これは夢。それも夢。すべ て夢です。
"You start knowing if your closest evil player is clockwise or anti-clockwise. If equidistant, this info is arbitrary." The Shugenja trusts players to their left, or to their right. The closest evil player is the player with the smallest number of steps from the Shugenja to the evil player. If the evil players are ‘equidistant’, that means that the closest evil player clockwise is the same number of steps away from the Shugenja as the closest evil player anti-clockwise. If the evil players are equidistant, the storyteller gives ‘arbitrary’ information to the Shugenja. This means that the Storyteller chooses whether to tell the Shugenja that the closest evil player is clockwise or anti-clockwise. The Shugenja doesn’t know whether their information is arbitrary or not. The Shugenja does not learn how many steps away the evil player is. If a Shugenja is created mid-game, the Shugenja wakes that night to receive their information. The Storyteller communicates with the Shugenja by pointing a finger in the appropriate direction, but may use other methods if they wish.
Townsfolk
You start knowing 1 in-play Townsfolk. If you were mad that you were this character, you gain their ability when they die.
Round and round the garden, go. Little girls run to and fro. Little boys climb up the tree. Which of these should Pixie be? Ladies smile and go to town. Lords with axe chop forest down. What’s yours is mine. What’s mine, divine. Silly little Pixie, me.
"You start knowing 1 in-play Townsfolk. If you were mad that you were this character, you gain their ability when they die." The Pixie pretends to be the same character as someone else. On the first night, the Pixie learns an in-play Townsfolk. The Storyteller chooses which Townsfolk this is. The Pixie does not learn which player is this character. If the Pixie player pretends that they are this Townsfolk, they gain the ability of this Townsfolk when the Townsfolk dies. They could have spoken loudly about being the character for one day, or pretended to be the character each day this game, or accused the Townsfolk of being a liar—the Storyteller is the judge of whether or not the player was convincing, by “being mad that they are this character”. When the Townsfolk player dies, the Pixie does not learn this, and is not told that they have gained a new ability. They may learn this has happened if they wake at night and start gaining information, or are prompted to choose players. If the player the Pixie learns about changes character then dies, the Pixie gains the ability of the Townsfolk the Pixie learnt about, not the new character.

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.

"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.

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.
Townsfolk
Each night*, you learn if a Minion nominated today.
Hear ye! Hear ye! Witchcraft in the labyrinth! Genius savant reveals all! Town in danger! Hear Ye!
"Each night*, you learn if a Minion nominated today." The Town Crier knows when Minions nominate. Each night, the Town Crier learns either a “yes” or a “no”. They do not learn which players are Minions or how many Minions made nominations, just whether or not any Minions made nominations today.
Townsfolk
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.
Townsfolk
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.

Once per game, during the day, visit the Storyteller for some advice to help your team win.
This was my favourite part of the river... see how the sunlight makes a rainbow from the monastery to the market? This was the best place for big fish. And the older I get, the bigger they were.
"Once per game, during the day, visit the Storyteller for some advice to help your team win." The Fisherman knows something that nobody else can know: what should be done. The Fisherman player chooses when to use their ability. When they visit the Storyteller, the Storyteller chooses what piece of advice to give the Fisherman. The Storyteller’s pieces of advice are not necessarily “facts”. They are strategy tips that the Storyteller believes will help the Fisherman win, if they are followed. If the Fisherman is drunk or poisoned, the Storyteller may give the Fisherman bad advice.
Townsfolk
You do not know what your ability is. Each day, privately guess what it is: you learn how accurate you are.
Wait. What. Who? Oh, ok. Wait. What?
"You do not know what your ability is. Each day, privately guess what it is: you learn how accurate you are." The Amnesiac doesn’t know their own ability. The Storyteller decides what the Amnesiac’s ability is. It may be the same ability as another character in Blood On The Clocktower, something similar, or something original. The Amnesiac may wake at any time during the night to learn information or to choose a player, or their ability may be passive—not requiring action from the Amnesiac player. Each day, the Amnesiac talks to the Storyteller in private, and makes a guess as to what their ability is. The Storyteller answers “cold” if the guess is very wrong, “warm” if the guess is on the right track, “hot” if the guess is very close, and “bingo” if the guess is spot on. Their guess may be specific, such as “Am I learning two players each night that are the same alignment?”, or vague, such as “Is my ability something to do with dead players?”
Outsider
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.
Outsider
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.
Outsider
If you are “mad” about being an Outsider, you might be executed.
I am not a freak! I am a human being! Have mercy!
"If you are "mad" about being an Outsider, you might be executed." The Mutant is killed if they try to reveal who they are. “Madness” is a term that means “you are trying to convince the group of something.” So, if the Mutant player is mad about being the Mutant, this means they are trying to convince people that they are the Mutant. If they are mad about being an Outsider, this means they are trying to convince people that they are an Outsider. This can be by verbally hinting who they are, or by their silence when questioned. It is always up to the Storyteller to decide what the Mutant is doing. If you think they are trying to convince the group they are an Outsider in any way, you can execute them—even outside the nomination phase, or at night. If you do, no other executions may happen today by normal means, since there is only one execution per day. If the Mutant hints that they are the Mutant at night, you may execute them that night, even if an execution happened today. Declare they have died, and continue the night phase as normal. An execution may still happen the next day.

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.
Minion
You start knowing a secret word. The 1st good player to say this word becomes evil that night.
That which issues from the heart alone, will bend the hearts of others to your own.
"You start knowing a secret word. The 1st good player to say this word becomes evil that night." The Mezepheles offers good players a choice: to turn evil or not. On the first night, the Mezepheles learns a secret word from the Storyteller. If a good player says this word, either publicly or privately, they turn evil that night. The Storyteller needs to hear this player actually say the word before turning them evil. The Mezepheles does not learn if a player turns evil. The good player learns if they turn evil, but not until that night. If the Mezepheles is sober and healthy at night, the good player turns evil even if the Mezepheles was drunk or poisoned when the good player spoke the secret word. If the Mezepheles is drunk or poisoned at night when a player would turn evil, the player stays good—the Mezepheles has “used their ability” and may not turn a player evil later on.
Minion
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.
Minion
Each night, choose a player: they are poisoned tonight and tomorrow day.
Add compound Alpha to compound Beta... NOT TOO MUCH!
"Each night, choose a player: they are poisoned tonight and tomorrow day." The Poisoner secretly disrupts character abilities. Each night, the Poisoner chooses someone to poison for that night and the entire next day. A poisoned player has no ability, but the Storyteller pretends they do. They do not affect the game in any real way. However, to keep up the illusion that the poisoned player is not poisoned, the Storyteller wakes them at the appropriate time and goes through the motions as if they were not poisoned. If their ability gives them information, the Storyteller may give them false information. If a poisoned player uses a "once per game" ability while poisoned, they cannot use their ability again.

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.
Demon
If more than 1 good player is executed, evil wins. All players know you are in play. After day 5, evil wins.
To the last, I grapple with thee. From Hell’s heart, I stab at thee. For hate’s sake, I spit my last breath at thee.
"If more than 1 good player is executed, evil wins. All players know you are in play. After day 5, evil wins." The Leviathan doesn't kill. All players know the Leviathan is in play, even if the Leviathan is created mid-game. Any number of evil players may be executed, but if more than one good player is executed, evil wins. It doesn’t matter which characters were executed, only the alignment of the player at the time they were executed. When the fifth day ends and night begins, if the Leviathan is still alive, evil wins. All types of execution count, even if the player doesn’t die. A player executed due to the Virgin, or due to revealing that they are the Mutant, is still executed. An executed player who lives due to the Pacifist is still executed.
Traveller
Each night, until dusk, 1) a player becomes sober, healthy & gets true info, or 2) their ability works twice. They learn which.
A cup of coffee with no cream, Monsieur? I’m terribly sorry, but we’re fresh out of cream — how about with no milk?
"Each night, until dusk, 1) a player becomes sober, healthy & gets true info, or 2) their ability works twice. They learn which." The Barista either makes people sober & healthy, or allows them to act twice as much as normal. The Storyteller chooses which player the Barista affects each night, and which one of the two Barista abilities is in effect. The Barista does not know who or what the Storyteller chooses, but the affected player does. If the affected player is acting twice, then they do so at the normal time. If they would normally wake at night, they act, go to sleep, then wake to act again. If they have already used a “once per game” ability, they may use that ability again. If they have a “once per game” ability but have not used it yet, they may use it twice before dusk. If the Barista makes a player sober and healthy, their drunkenness and poisoning, if any, is removed, and they may not become drunk or poisoned until dusk. This player must get true information, even if a Vortox is in play.
Traveller
Each night*, choose a living player: if they agree, you learn their character, but you both might die.
Enchanté, Sailor. You look like you need someone to really listen to your troubles. I'm a good listener. Very, very good.
"Each night*, choose a living player: if they agree, you learn their character, but you both might die." The Harlot learns the character of whoever agrees to reveal it, but at great risk for them both. Each night, the Harlot chooses a player. That player has a decision to make: do they reveal their character to the Harlot? If they do, the Storyteller may decide that both this player and the Harlot die tonight. The Harlot only learns the character of the chosen player, not that player’s alignment. The Harlot may discuss during the day which character they would like to pick at night, and other players may offer to be picked, but they may go back on their word and choose differently when night comes.
Traveller
Each day, choose a player: a different player changes character tonight.

"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.
Traveller
Each day, you may choose up to 3 sets of 2 players to swap seats. Players may not leave their seats to talk in private.
Miss Featherbottom, be quiet. Master Rutherford, a teacup needs just the four fingers, please. I know you are a father of nine, but age, or lack there-of as the case may be, is never an excuse for poor manners.
"Each day, you may choose up to 3 sets of 2 players to swap seats. Players may not leave their seats to talk in private." The Matron chooses which players sit where. The Matron may swap two players’ seating positions, up to three times per day. The new seating order is permanent, unless changed again by the Matron. The same player may be moved multiple times. Some players may find moving difficult due to a physical disability or impediment. In these cases, they are immune to the Matron’s ability and can stay put. With the Matron in play, players may not talk privately except with their immediate neighbors while sitting down. Players may not leave their seat to whisper something to any player, and may not even talk about the game to each other when going to the bathroom, and so on. Players should self-police this. If the Matron swaps just one or two sets of players, they may not swap another set of players later that day.
Traveller
On your 1st night, you gain a Townsfolk ability (if good), or a Minion ability (if evil).
For years have I traveled, studying the ways of The Craft. Which craft, you ask? Simply that of the simple folk. Nothing to worry about. Not yet.
"On your 1st night, you gain a Townsfolk ability (if good) or a Minion ability (if evil)." The Apprentice has either a Townsfolk or a Minion ability. A good Apprentice gains a Townsfolk ability. An evil Apprentice gains a Minion ability. They have this ability until they die. The Apprentice learns their ability on their first night, and they may act that night if the character whose ability they gain would do so. Only abilities listed on the character sheet may be gained. If the Apprentice gains an ability that normally only functions on the first night of the game, such as the Grandmother’s, it functions on the Apprentice’s first night instead. The Apprentice does not literally become the character whose ability they gain. They are the Apprentice, a Traveller, so they may be exiled but not executed, and they do not count toward the number of alive players to see if evil wins due to just two players being alive. Also, other characters’ abilities that detect characters would detect the Apprentice as the Apprentice.
