Notes

This script was first built when Summoner was released, a character which absolutely captivated me and my group. The idea that a hard-confirmed player could become the demon was so interesting to me, I built a script around it. With hard confirmation of goodness coming from the Steward, Gambler, Artist, Virgin, Grandmother, and even Golem, but the possibility that any of those people could have been transformed into a demon, this script is sure to be a head scratcher! Versions 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 were created before the update to Acrobat which changed it from Outsider to Townsfolk. Update 1.1.0: Removed Witch, Tinker, Snitch, Monk, Alchemist, and Fool, added Lunatic, Drunk, Investigator, Washerwoman, Pixie, Poppy Grower. Update 1.2.0: Removed Acrobat (now a townsfolk) and Pixie, added Golem and Grandmother.

Townsfolk

Steward

You start knowing 1 good player.

How DARE you accuse Her Ladyship of wrongdoing? I’ve known her my entire life! All nine years!

"You start knowing 1 good player." The Steward knows 1 good player. The Steward learns a player, but not their character. The Steward learns their information on the first night of the game. If created mid-game, then the Steward learns their information that night instead.

How to Run

While preparing the first night, put the KNOW reminder by any good character token. During the first night, wake the Steward. Point to the player marked KNOW. Put the Steward to sleep.

Townsfolk

Investigator

You start knowing that 1 of 2 players is a particular Minion.

It is a fine night for a stroll, wouldn't you say, Mister Morozov? Or should I say... BARON Morozov?

"You start knowing that 1 of 2 players is a particular Minion." The Investigator learns that a particular Minion character is in play, but not exactly which player it is. During the first night, the Investigator learns that one of two players is a specific Minion. They learn this only once and then learn nothing more.

How to Run

While preparing the first night, put the Investigator's MINION reminder token by any Minion character token, and put the Investigator's WRONG reminder token by any other character token.
During the first night, wake the Investigator and point to the players marked MINION and WRONG. Show the character token marked MINION to the Investigator. Put the Investigator to sleep. Remove the Investigator's reminder tokens when convenient.

Townsfolk

Washerwoman

You start knowing that 1 of 2 players is a particular Townsfolk.

Bloodstains on a dinner jacket? No, this is cooking sherry. How careless.

"You start knowing that 1 of 2 players is a particular Townsfolk." The Washerwoman learns that a specific Townsfolk is in play, but not who is playing them. During the first night, the Washerwoman is woken, shown two players, and learns the character of one of them. They learn this only once and then learn nothing more.

How to Run

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

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

When preparing the first night, choose a Grandchild by marking any good character with the GRANDCHILD reminder.
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.
If the Demon kills the Grandchild, the Grandmother dies - mark them with the DEAD reminder.

Townsfolk

High Priestess

Each night, learn which player the Storyteller believes you should talk to most.

There is life behind the personality that uses personalities as masks. There are times when life puts off the mask and deep answers to deep.

"Each night, learn which player the Storyteller believes you should talk to most." The High Priestess acts on intuition. The High Priestess can be shown the same player multiple times in a row, or a different player every night. The shown player can be alive or dead. The shown player can be good or evil. There are no official criteria that determine which player the Storyteller must show to the High Priestess. It is up to the Storyteller’s judgement as to what they think will most benefit the High Priestess and the good team in general. It could be because the player has important information that has not been revealed yet. Or because the player is evil and has a bluff that doesn’t make sense. Or because the player is trustworthy and needs to be trusted more. Or because the player is good but on the wrong track and needs to be corrected. Or something new.

How to Run

Each night, wake the High Priestess. Point to a player. Put the High Priestess to sleep.

Townsfolk

Sailor

Each night, choose an alive player: either you or they are drunk until dusk. You can't die.

I'll drink any one of yer under the table! You! The chatterbox! Reckon you can take me? No? Howza 'bout you, Grandma? You ever tried Old McKillys Extra Spiced Rum before? Guaranteed to put hairs on yer chest! Step aboard, aye!

"Each night, choose an alive player: either you or they are drunk until dusk. You can't die." The Sailor is either drunk or getting somebody else drunk. While the Sailor is sober, they can't die. Each night, the Sailor chooses a player, who will probably get drunk. If they choose themself, they lose their “cannot die” ability until they become sober. If the Sailor chooses a dead player accidentally, the Storyteller prompts them to choose again. If the Sailor chooses another player, the Storyteller chooses which player is drunk. If they choose a Townsfolk, the Storyteller will usually make the Townsfolk drunk, but if an Outsider, a Minion, or the Demon is chosen, then the Storyteller will usually make the Sailor the drunk one. While sober, the Sailor cannot die, even if they have not yet woken at night to go drinking.

How to Run

Each night, wake the Sailor. They point at any player. Put the Sailor to sleep. Either the Sailor or this chosen player becomes drunk—mark them with the DRUNK reminder.
If the sober Sailor would die, the Sailor remains alive. If the sober Sailor is executed, declare that this player is executed but remains alive. (Do not say why.)

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

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.
At dawn, remove the SAFE reminders.
At dusk, remove the DRUNK reminder.

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

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.

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

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.
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.

Townsfolk

Artist

Once per game, during the day, privately ask the Storyteller any yes/no question.

Mon Dieu! C'est lumineux! My work, she is... how you say... Magnifique! Dieu est révélé! Oui.

"Once per game, during the day, privately ask the Storyteller any yes/no question." The Artist may ask any 1 question, and get an honest answer. The question may deal with anything at all, phrased in any way they want. The Storyteller honestly answers “yes,” “no,” or “I don’t know.” It is up to the Artist 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.

How to Run

During any day, the Artist can request a private chat with you. Take them away from the circle so you cannot be overheard. They will ask you a question. Whisper “Yes,” “No,” or “I don’t know,” to them, or if you cannot answer in one of these ways, prompt the Artist to ask again in a different way. The Artist loses their ability - mark them with the NO ABILITY reminder.

Examples & Notes

Like the Savant, evil players bluffing as the Artist may request a private chat with you and pretend to ask a question. To help them bluff, you can pretend to give an answer by nodding or shaking your head.

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

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.
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.

Townsfolk

Virgin

The 1st time you are nominated, if the nominator is a Townsfolk, they are executed immediately.

I am pure. Let those who are without sin cast themselves down and suffer in my stead. My reputation shall not be stained with your venomous accusations.

"The 1st time you are nominated, if the nominator is a Townsfolk, they are executed immediately." The Virgin may inadvertently execute their accuser, confirming which players are Townsfolk in the process. If a Townsfolk nominates the Virgin, then that Townsfolk is executed immediately. Because there can only be one execution per day, the nomination process immediately ends, even if a player was about to die. Only Townsfolk are executed due to the Virgin's ability. If an Outsider, Minion, or Demon nominates the Virgin, nothing happens, and voting continues. The Virgin's ability is powerful because if a Townsfolk nominates them and dies, then both characters are almost certainly Townsfolk. After being nominated for the first time, the Virgin loses their ability, even if the nominator did not die, and even if the Virgin was poisoned or drunk.

How to Run

If the first player to ever nominate the Virgin is a Townsfolk, immediately declare that the nominating player is executed. That player dies—put a shroud on their character token in the Grimoire. The Virgin loses their ability—put the Virgin's NO ABILITY reminder token by the Virgin token. End the nomination process and proceed to the night phase. (No one else can be executed today.)
If the first player to ever nominate the Virgin is not a Townsfolk, continue the vote as normal. The Virgin loses their ability—put the Virgin's NO ABILITY reminder token by the Virgin token.

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

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.
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.

Outsider

Lunatic

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.

How to Run

While setting up the game, put the Lunatic and Demon tokens in the bag. Once all tokens have been returned to you, swap the positions of the Lunatic and Demon tokens in the Grimoire.
During the first night, wake the Lunatic and act as if they are the Demon. Show them the THESE ARE YOUR MINIONS info token and point to a number of players equaling the number of Minions in play. (These can be any players, whether or not they are Minions.) Show any three good character tokens as bluffs. (These can even be characters that are in play.)
During the first night, wake the Demon. Show them the YOU ARE info token, then their Demon token. (This tells them they are the real Demon.) Show them the THIS PLAYER IS info token, then the Lunatic token, then point at the Lunatic player.
Each night, before the Demon wakes to attack, wake the Lunatic to act as if they were that Demon. Put a CHOSEN reminder on each player they chose, then put them to sleep. Wake the real Demon, point at the Lunatic, show the Lunatic token to the real Demon, and point at the players that the Lunatic chose. Then the Demon acts as normal.

Examples & Notes

You can make the Lunatic think they are a different Demon than the in-play Demon by instead putting two Demon tokens in the bag, then replacing one of them with the Lunatic token once they are in the Grimoire.

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

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.
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.)
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.)

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

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.
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.

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

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.
When this Minion would normally act, the relevant choices are made by the Storyteller.

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

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.
During the first night, wake the Godfather. Show them the character tokens of all Outsiders in play. Put the Godfather to sleep.
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.

Minion

Harpy

Each night, choose 2 players: tomorrow, the 1st player is mad that the 2nd is evil, or one or both might die.

So fair a day I never did see, nor so fowl a presence hanging over me.

"Each night, choose 2 players: tomorrow, the 1st player is mad that the 2nd is evil, or one or both might die." The Harpy creates discord and distrust between good players. At night, the Harpy player chooses one player at a time, not two at once. A player chosen by the Harpy is affected by the ability until the next Harpy choice. If the Storyteller decides to kill players with the Harpy ability, they do not need to kill both. The Storyteller can decide to kill only one, or none. The Harpy can choose a dead player. If so, the Storyteller can kill just the living player, since dead players can not die again. The order of deaths due to the Harpy ability can be chosen by the Storyteller, should that be important.

How to Run

Each night, wake the Harpy. The Harpy points to one player, then another player. Mark the first player with the MAD reminder and the second player with the 2ND reminder. Put the Harpy to sleep. Wake the player marked MAD. Show the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token then the Harpy token, then point to the player marked 2ND. Put the player marked “Mad” to sleep.
MAD
2ND

Minion

Summoner

You get 3 bluffs. On the 3rd night, choose a player: they become an evil Demon of your choice. [No Demon]

Hail the guardians of the north; by my intellect, thou art cut. Hail the guardians of the east; by my will, thou art dominated. Hail the guardians of the south; by that which lies beyond, the mystery is revealed. Hail the guardians of the west; a shield in the darkness.

"You get 3 bluffs. On the 3rd night, choose a player: they become an evil Demon of your choice. [No Demon]" The Summoner creates a Demon. The Summoner may choose any player to become the Demon, even themselves. The new Demon does not learn which players are Minions, or vice versa. The evil players will need to talk amongst themselves to figure this out. Even though there is no Demon in play for two days, the game does not end. However, if the Summoner becomes unable to create a Demon (due to dying, becoming drunk on night 3 etc.) good wins. The newly created Demon acts on the same night that it is created.

How to Run

During the setup phase, remove the Demon and add a Townsfolk.
When preparing the first night, put the Summoner’s NIGHT 1 reminder by the Summoner. When preparing the second night, put the Summoner’s NIGHT 2 reminder by the Summoner. When preparing the third night, put the Summoner’s NIGHT 3 reminder by the Summoner.
During the first night, show the Summoner 3 not-in-play characters as bluffs.
During the night, if the Summoner has a NIGHT 3 reminder, wake the Summoner. They point at a player, and to a Demon icon on the character sheet. Put the Summoner to sleep. Wake the chosen player. Show the YOU ARE info token, then the Demon token. Show the YOU ARE info token, then give a thumbs down. Replace their character token with the Demon token and put the new Demon to sleep.

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

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.)
That night, wake the new Imp, show them the YOU ARE info token, then show them the Imp token.
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.

Demon

Yaggababble

You start knowing a secret phrase. For each time you said it publicly today, a player might die.

Murders inside the Rue Morgue? Фальшивые новости! Hounds on the Baskerville moor? Фальшивые новости! Death while sailing the Nile? Фальшивые новости!

"You start knowing a secret phrase. For each time you said it publicly today, a player might die." The Yaggababble kills by talking. The phrase that the Yaggababble says can be any length, but is usually 2 to 5 words long. If the Yaggababble says this phrase, the Storyteller may kill a player any time afterwards, until dawn. The Yaggababble may say this phrase as a standalone sentence, or part of another sentence. The Yaggababble may say this phrase multiple times per day. If so, the Storyteller may kill multiple players. The Storyteller chooses which players die. The Storyteller may choose to kill fewer players than the number of times the phrase was said. If the Yaggababble is drunk or poisoned, players cannot die, even if the Yaggababble was sober and healthy when they said their phrase. If the Yaggababble is sober and healthy, players might die, even if the Yaggababble was drunk or poisoned when they said their phrase. It is rare for the Yaggababble to kill during the day.

How to Run

During setup, write a phrase on a piece of paper, or on a phone.
During the first night, wake the Demon. Show this phrase, then put them to sleep.
Each time Demon says the secret phrase, put a DEAD reminder in the centre of the left side of the Grimoire, as a reminder to yourself to place it tonight.
Each night, you may mark players with these DEAD reminders, and add a shroud to each marked player. These players die.

Examples & Notes

Choose a phrase that is fairly plain. If the Demon has an unusual phrase each day, they will likely die or say it rarely. If the Demon has a common, believable phrase, they will likely say it each day, perhaps more than once each day.

Demon

Lil' Monsta

Each night, Minions choose who babysits Lil' Monsta & "is the Demon". Each night*, a player might die. [+1 Minion]

Step 1: Be cute. Step 2: World domination. Step 3: Bweakfast.

"Each night, Minions choose who babysits Lil' Monsta & "is the Demon". Each night*, a player might die. [+1 Minion]" Lil’ Monsta isn’t a player, and is instead babysat by a Minion. Each night, all Minions wake together and decide amongst themselves who babysits the Lil’ Monsta. The Minions decide by pointing to a player, or otherwise make it obvious they have reached a decision. If they can not reach a unanimous decision, the Storyteller decides. If the Storyteller thinks it is funny, they may give this player the Lil’ Monsta token, which they will need to hide in a pocket, under their hat, or somewhere appropriate. Players may not request that others empty their pockets. The player with the Lil’ Monsta token “is the Demon”. Good wins if they die. They register as a Demon for characters like the Fortune Teller etc. If a good player babysits Lil’ Monsta, they “are the Demon” but they remain good. A dead player babysitting Lil’ Monsta ends the game because the Demon “is dead”. Minions babysitting Lil’ Monsta keep their Minion ability. Lil’ Monsta isn’t a player, so can’t be drunk or poisoned.

How to Run

During setup, remove Lil’ Monsta and add a Minion token. On the first night, skip the MINION INFO and DEMON INFO steps.
Each night, wake all Minions. The majority will (eventually) point to one player. If they can’t decide, choose a player. (Give this player the Lil’ Monsta token and wait for them to hide it, if you want!) Mark them with the IS THE DEMON reminder token. Put all Minions to sleep. Then, if it is not the first night, a player might die – mark them with a DEAD reminder and a shroud.
The player marked IS THE DEMON registers as the Demon. If they die, declare that the game is over and good has won.

Examples & Notes

You may need to kill a Minion or two at night using the Lil’ Monsta’s ability. On the final day, it would be unfair for the good team to have 2 or more Minions alive, since either Minions could have been chosen to babysit Lil’ Monsta without any way for the good team to know which. Avoid this, and make the game fairer for the good team by killing Minions so that only 1 remains on the final day.

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

While preparing the first night, the two Townsfolk neighboring the No Dashii become poisoned - mark them with POISONED reminders.
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.
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.

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

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.
첫날 밤을 제외한 매일 밤, 플레이어 1명이 죽도록 정할 수 있습니다.
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.
