    Notes

    Some focus characters: Wizard, Amnesiac, Alchemist, Vizier, Boffin, Hermit. With Hermit, any person who draws a Townsfolk token could be either the Drunk or Hermit: If they are the Hermit, they are discouraged from saying they could be the Drunk by Mutant madness. With Hermit, it's heavily encouraged to do [-1 Outsiders].

    Chef

    You start knowing how many pairs of evil players there are.


    This evening's reservations seem odd. Never before has Mrs. Mayweather kept company with that scamp from Hudson Lane. Yet, tonight, they have a table for two. Strange.

    "You start knowing how many pairs of evil players there are." The Chef knows if evil players are sitting next to each other. On the first night, the Chef learns exactly how many pairs of evil players there are in total. A pair is two players, but one player may be a part of two pairs. So, two players sitting next to each other is one pair. Three players sitting next to each other is two pairs. Four players sitting next to each other is three pairs. And so on. The Chef detects evil Travellers just like other character types, but only if those Travellers joined the game before the Chef acts.

    How to Run

    1. During the first night, wake the Chef. Show the Chef fingers (0, 1, 2, etc.) equaling the number of pairs of neighboring evil players. Put the Chef to sleep.

    Librarian

    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.

    How to Run

    1. While preparing the first night, put the Librarian's OUTSIDER reminder token by any Outsider character token, and put the Librarian's WRONG reminder token by any other character token.
    2. During the first night, wake the Librarian and point to the players marked OUTSIDER and WRONG. Show the character token marked OUTSIDER to the Librarian. Put the Librarian to sleep. Remove the Librarian's reminder tokens when convenient.
  4. Townsfolk

    Balloonist

    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.

    How to Run

    1. During setup, you may add an Outsider.
    2. When preparing the first night, mark any player with the KNOW reminder. When preparing each night afterwards, mark a character of a different type than the current with the KNOW reminder.
    3. Each night, wake the Balloonist. Point to the player marked KNOW. Put the Balloonist to sleep.
  5. Townsfolk

    General

    Each night, you learn which alignment the Storyteller believes is winning: good, evil, or neither.


    I don’t have time for quotes.

    "Each night, you learn which alignment the Storyteller believes is winning: good, evil, or neither." The General knows who is winning. If the good team is winning, the Storyteller gives a thumbs up. If the evil team is winning, the Storyteller gives a thumbs down. If neither team is winning, or the Storyteller isn’t sure, the Storyteller gives a thumbs to the side. The Storyteller is the judge on which team is winning. Many factors may be included, such as how many players of each team are still alive, how much information the good team has, how successful the evil team’s bluffs seem to be, which players the group wants to execute next, or how experienced the Demon player is. All of these, and more, will inform the Storyteller’s judgment. The Storyteller decides who is winning at the point that the General wakes. Previous events in the night may affect their decision.

    How to Run

    1. Each night, wake the General. If you believe that the good team is winning, give a thumbs up. If you believe that the evil team is winning, give a thumbs down. If you don’t know which team is winning, give a thumbs to the side. Put the General to sleep.
  6. 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).
  7. Townsfolk

    Monk

    Each night*, choose a player (not yourself): they are safe from the Demon tonight.


    'Tis an ill and deathly wind that blows tonight. Come, my brother, take shelter in the abbey while the storm rages. By my word, or by my life, you will be safe.

    "Each night*, choose a player (not yourself): they are safe from the Demon tonight." The Monk protects other players from the Demon. Each night except the first, the Monk may choose to protect any player except themself. If the Demon attacks a player who has been protected by the Monk, then that player does not die. The Demon does not get to attack another player—there is simply no death tonight. The Monk does not protect against the Demon nominating and executing someone.

    How to Run

    1. Each night except the first, wake the Monk. The Monk points at any player except themself. (If the Monk points at themself, shake your head no and prompt them to point at another player.) Put the Monk to sleep. Put the Monk's SAFE reminder token by the chosen player's character token.
    2. If the Demon attacks the player marked SAFE, the player remains alive. (Do not mark them with the Demon's DEAD reminder token or add a shroud as you normally would.) At dawn, declare that no one died at night. (Do not say why.)
    3. At dawn, remove the SAFE reminder token.
    4. In other editions, Demons may have abilities other than killing. The Monk's protection also prevents all other harmful effects of the Demon's ability, such as poisoning or turning the protected player evil.

    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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. Townsfolk

    Amnesiac

    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?”

    How to Run

    1. During setup, decide what ability the Amnesiac player has. During the game, treat that player as if they had that ability, waking them when needed, prompting them to choose players when needed, or whatever else is appropriate. Use the Amnesiac’s ? reminders if you need to.
    2. Each day, the Amnesiac makes a guess about their ability in private. Answer “Cold”, “Warm”, “Hot", or “Bingo”.

    Examples & Notes

    • Make the Amnesiac’s ability guessable, so that the Amnesiac can figure out what their ability is over time. Learning a piece of information each night, or a power that affects the game in a way that the Amnesiac notices, are both good ideas.
    • If the Amnesiac guesses their ability, but the wording is different, still tell them they guessed correctly.
    • You can make the Amnesiac’s ability slightly better than a normal Townsfolk’s ability. Not knowing what it is, the player will need to work harder to receive its full benefit.
  13. Townsfolk

    Banshee

    If the Demon kills you, all players learn this. From now on, you may nominate twice per day and vote twice per nomination.


    Gorm do shúile, dearg do ghruaig, ní bheidh sé i bhfad, is a mbeidh tú san uaigh.

    "If the Demon kills you, all players learn this. From now on, you may nominate twice per day and vote twice per nomination.” The Banshee becomes more powerful when dead, nominating and voting twice as much. When alive, the Banshee nominates and votes as normal. When dead, they may nominate twice per day, even though dead players may normally not nominate at all. When dead, they may vote for any nomination they wish and do not need a vote token to do so. They may vote twice for the same nomination. The Banshee only gains these powers if they were killed by the Demon. Dying by execution or to a non-Demon ability does not count. To vote twice, the Banshee player raises both hands when votes are counted. If the player is unable to do this due to a disability, the Storyteller can count their normal vote twice.

    How to Run

    1. If the Banshee is killed by the Demon, place the HAS ABILITY reminder token next to the Banshee and say “The Banshee has awoken” or something similarly dramatic. The Banshee may nominate twice per day, but it is the player’s responsibility to remember how many times they have nominated. The Banshee may raise two hands when voting. When counting the votes, count each hand as a vote.
    2. If the Banshee is killed by the Demon but does not have their ability at that time or is killed by a non-Demon ability, then do not tell the group that the Banshee ability has been triggered. The Banshee may not nominate, and needs a vote token to vote, like a regular dead player.

    Examples & Notes

    • If all good players are dead, the game continues. Good can still win due to the Banshee being able to nominate.
  14. Townsfolk

    Poppy Grower

    Minions & Demons do not know each other. If you die, they learn who each other are that night.


    In the hidden groves of the deep forest, the black poppy dwells. To see its revelry is to be enchanted. To smell its thick aroma is to be lost forever, a slave to the gods of light and dark.

    "Minions & Demons do not know each other. If you die, they learn who each other are that night." The Poppy Grower prevents the evil players from learning who each other are. The Demon still learns three not-in-play characters that are safe to bluff as. If the Poppy Grower dies, the Demon and Minions learn who each other are, as though it were the first night again. If the Poppy Grower becomes drunk or poisoned, Demons and Minions do not suddenly learn who each other are. If the Poppy Grower is drunk or poisoned when they die, Demons and Minions do not learn who each other are, since the Poppy Grower has no ability that night. An evil Traveller still learns which player is the Demon when that Traveller enters play.

    How to Run

    1. During the first night, wake the Demon. Show the THESE CHARACTERS ARE NOT IN PLAY info token, then any three good character tokens that are not in play. Then, put the Demon to sleep. Do not do the Minion Info and Demon Info steps.
    2. If the Poppy Grower dies, mark them with the EVIL WAKES reminder. That night, wake the Minions and let them make eye contact. Show the THIS IS THE DEMON info token, then point to the Demon. Put the Minions to sleep. Wake the Demon. Show the THESE ARE YOUR MINIONS info token, then point to the Minions. Put the Demon to sleep.
  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

    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.)
  17. Outsider

    Plague Doctor

    When you die, the Storyteller gains a Minion ability.


    Pleauze shtay shtill. Thinks nid tiime for hillink. Myrhh-myrhh.

    "When you die, the Storyteller gains a Minion ability." The Plague Doctor brings an extra Minion ability into play. The Storyteller chooses which Minion ability is gained. This ability is in effect for the rest of the game. Nothing else changes for the Storyteller – they don’t become evil, they don’t become a player, they are not a legitimate player to be targeted by other abilities, and they cannot vote or nominate. If the Plague Doctor is drunk or poisoned when they die, the Storyteller doesn’t gain a Minion ability, even when the Plague Doctor becomes sober and healthy.

    How to Run

    1. When the Plague Doctor dies, place a Minion character token in the centre of the left side of the Grimoire and mark this with the Plague Doctor’s STORYTELLER ABILITY reminder. Or, mark an in-play Minion with the STORYTELLER ABILITY reminder. If applicable, add a night token to the night sheet.
    2. When this Minion would normally act, the relevant choices are made by the Storyteller.
  18. Outsider

    Mutant

    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.

    How to Run

    1. At any time (even at night), if you believe that the Mutant is mad about being an Outsider, then you can decide to execute the Mutant. Declare this to the group. They die - mark them with a shroud.
    2. If you execute them during the day before the normal execution happens, go to the night phase. (There is a maximum of one execution per day.)
  19. Minion

    Wizard

    Once per game, choose to make a wish. If granted, it might have a price & leave a clue as to its nature.


    Every man and every woman is a star. Love is the law, love under will.

    "Once per game, choose to make a wish. If granted, it might have a price & leave a clue as to its nature." The Wizard makes a wish. This wish is limited only by the player’s imagination. It can be anything at all. The Wizard can write their wish on their phone and wake at night to show the Storyteller, or talk with the Storyteller in private during the day. The Wizard could even make a wish publicly if they are feeling foolish. If the Storyteller tells the group that the Wizard has made a wish, they need not do so immediately, and can do so at any point later on. Many wishes have a price. The price changes the game in some way, or changes the wish in some way. It can be anything at all, and is decided by the Storyteller. The Storyteller may or may not tell the Wizard what the price is. The purpose of the price is to rebalance a wish that is unfair for the good team on a mechanical level. Many wishes leave a clue. The clue can be anything at all, is decided by the Storyteller, and is declared publicly. The purpose of a clue is to rebalance a wish that is unfair to the good team on an informational level. When the Wizard dies, the wish may or may not still be in effect, depending on the nature of the wish and the nature of the price. If the Wizard makes a wish that the Storyteller doesn’t understand, or feels like it would be impossible to implement, the Storyteller may ask the Wizard to wish again, or cancel the wish.

    How to Run

    1. When the Wizard makes a wish, either verbally or via text, decide whether to accept or decline the wish. If the wish is declined, prompt the Wizard to wish again, or tell them that they have no more wishes.
    2. If the wish is granted, say “Your wish is granted.” or “Your wish is my command”, or nod, or otherwise signal that their wish is accepted. Now or later, you may make a price: make whatever mechanical adjustments to the game you feel are necessary for the wish to be balanced. Now or later, you may declare publicly that the Wizard has made a wish, then give the good team a clue about what was wished.

    Examples & Notes

    • Storytelling the Wizard can be tricky. The Wizard is the most fun for everybody when all wishes are granted, all wishes leave a clue, and all wishes have a price. However...
    • If you feel that by granting a wish, the evil team has benefitted a small amount but the good team still has all they need to figure out who the Demon is and to win the game, you may apply no clue and no price. You may even skip telling the good team that the Wizard has made a wish, or tell them but give no clue.
    • If you feel that by granting the wish, the good team is at a severe disadvantage in terms of balance - the game rules have changed so that it is impossible for the good team to win even if they learn who the Demon is - then change the game rules or change the wish so that it is still fair for the good team.
    • If you feel that by granting the wish, the good team is at a severe disadvantage in terms of knowledge - they lack the needed information to reasonably win the game - then give them a helpful clue to find out what the wish was.
    • If you feel that the wish is so extreme and convoluted that you can think of no clue or price to balance it, or that it would just make the game unfun, then decline the wish completely.
    • Overall, the wish should tip the scales in favour of the Wizard, but still allow the good team a reasonable chance of winning. Take your time in deciding how to do this.

    Vizier

    All players know you are the Vizier. You cannot die during the day. If good voted, you may choose to execute immediately.


    An excellent decision, as always, sire. Such a petty crime as bumping into the Bishop indeed deserves your ‘justice’ and ‘mercy’. Take a stroll in the gardens. Visit the gallery and peruse the sculptures of Von Strauf. Relax, sire. Leave everything… to me.

    "All players know you are the Vizier. You cannot die during the day. If good voted, you may choose to execute immediately." The Vizier executes players without the town’s consent. On the first day, all players learn that the Vizier is in play, and which player it is. During the day, the Vizier can not die by any means. After a vote is tallied, if the Vizier chooses to execute the nominee (and at least one good player voted), they are executed immediately. This counts as the 1 execution allowed each day. After a vote is tallied, if the Vizier chooses to execute the nominee (and no good players voted), nothing happens. Even if the vote tally is less than 50% of the living players, the Vizier may still execute. Even if another player has more votes than the current player, the Vizier may still execute. The Vizier does not have to force an execution each day.

    How to Run

    1. When the first night has ended, declare that the Vizier is in play, and which player it is.
  22. Minion

    Boffin

    The Demon (even if drunk or poisoned) has a not-in-play good character’s ability. You both know which.


    Stellar hydrogen, vast, inert; carbon, oxygen, neon gases, all ruined. Molecular chaos, entropy, yields new cosmic phenomena, rebirth from atomic chaos, dense matter collapsing. All in a teeny little bottle.

    "The Demon (even if drunk or poisoned) has a not-in-play good character's ability. You both know which." The Boffin replicates a good ability. While the Boffin is alive, the Demon has a single Townsfolk ability or Outsider ability. If the Demon is drunk or poisoned, the Demon keeps this good ability. If the Boffin is drunk or poisoned, the Demon temporarily loses this good ability. If the Demon dies and has an ability that functions while dead, such as the Sweetheart, the Demon keeps this ability. If a new Demon is created, such as via a Scarlet Woman or a Barber, this new Demon has an ability from the Boffin. This ability may be different to the previous Demon's ability. If there are multiple Demons alive, only one alive Demon has an ability from the Boffin. If the Demon has an ability that modifies the setup, such as a Choirboy, these changes are made during setup, as normal. Both the Demon and the Boffin learn which good ability the Demon has. The Storyteller may wake these players independently, or together. The not-in-play character may be 1 of the Demon's 3 bluffs. The Demon also wakes at night at the time that the good character would normally wake.

    How to Run

    1. While setting up the game, before putting character tokens in the bag, make any changes that are indicated in brackets on the Demon's two character abilities. Afterwards, place this second character token by the Demon character token.
    2. During the 1st night, wake the Boffin and the Demon. Show the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token, then the Boffin token, then the good character token. Place this second character token by the Demon character token.
    3. Treat the Demon player as if they had this character ability, as well as their own Demon ability.

    Examples & Notes

    • Good abilities that would drunk/poison themselves, such as the Sailor, only drunk/poison the Demon's good ability.

    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.

    Imp

    Each night*, choose a player: they die. If you kill yourself this way, a Minion becomes the Imp.


    We must keep our wits sharp and our sword sharper. Evil walks among us, and will stop at nothing to destroy us good, simple folk, bringing our fine town to ruin. Trust no-one. But, if you must trust someone, trust me.

    "Each night*, choose a player: they die. If you kill yourself this way, a Minion becomes the Imp." The Imp kills a player each night, and can make copies of itself... for a terrible price. On each night except the first, the Imp chooses a player to kill. Because most characters act after the Demon, that player will probably not get to use their ability tonight. The Imp, because they're a Demon, knows which players are their Minions, and knows three not-in-play good characters that they can safely bluff as. If the Imp dies, the game ends and good wins. However, if the Imp kills themself at night, they die and an alive Minion becomes an Imp. This new Imp does not act that same night, but is now the Imp in every other way—they kill each night, and lose if they die.

    How to Run

    1. Each night except the first, wake the Imp. The Imp points at any player. Put the Imp to sleep. The chosen player dies—put the Imp's DEAD reminder by the chosen player's character token in the Grimoire and put a shroud on it.
    2. If the Imp killed themself at night, choose an alive Minion and replace their character token with a spare Imp token, changing their character to the Imp. Wake the new Imp, show them the YOU ARE info token, then show them the Imp token. Put the new Imp to sleep.
    3. At dawn, declare which player died at night. (Do not say how they died.)
    4. If the Imp attacks a dead player at night, let them do so. Whenever a character's ability says "choose a player," that means that any player—alive or dead—can be chosen. The Imp may be planning on bluffing as the Soldier, and this kind of thing helps their bluff look stronger.

    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.
