Townsfolk
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
- 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.
- 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.
Townsfolk
Pixie
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.
How to Run
- During the first night, mark a Townsfolk character token with the Pixie’s MAD reminder. Wake the Pixie. Show the Pixie this Townsfolk character token. Put the Pixie to sleep.
- If the Townsfolk marked MAD dies, and you feel that the Pixie player has been sufficiently mad that they were this character, replace the MAD reminder with the HAS ABILITY reminder. The Pixie now has this Townsfolk’s ability, and will wake at night when this Townsfolk would normally wake.
Townsfolk
Empath
Each night, you learn how many of your 2 alive neighbors are evil.
My skin prickles. Something is not right here. I can feel it.
"Each night, you learn how many of your 2 alive neighbors are evil." The Empath keeps learning if their living neighbours are good or evil. The Empath only learns how many of their neighbours are evil, not which one is evil. The Empath does not detect dead players. So, if the Empath is sitting next to a dead player, they do not get info about that dead player. Instead, they get info about the closest alive player in that direction. The Empath acts after the Demon, so if the Demon kills one of the Empath's alive neighbours, the Empath does not learn about the now-dead player. The Empath's information is accurate at dawn, not at dusk.
How to Run
- Each night, wake the Empath. Show them fingers (0, 1, or 2) equaling the number of evil players neighbouring the Empath. Put the Empath to sleep.

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
- 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.
Townsfolk
Snake Charmer
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.
How to Run
- Each night, wake the Snake Charmer. They point at any player.
- If that player is not the Demon, nothing happens. Put the Snake Charmer to sleep.
- If that player is the Demon, the old Snake Charmer changes into the new (evil) Demon, and the old Demon changes into the new (good) Snake Charmer—swap the Snake Charmer token and the Demon’s token. The new Snake Charmer is poisoned - mark them with the POISONED reminder. Wake the new Demon and show them the YOU ARE info token, a thumbs-down, the YOU ARE token, then the Demon’s token. (This shows they are now evil and the Demon.) Put the new Demon to sleep. Wake the new Snake Charmer and show them the YOU ARE info token, a thumbs-up, the YOU ARE info token, then the Snake Charmer token. (This shows they are now good and the Snake Charmer.) Put the new Snake Charmer to sleep.
Examples & Notes
- In the strange situation that the Snake Charmer is evil, or the Demon good, swap their alignments as appropriate.
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
- 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.
- 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.)
- At dawn, remove the SAFE reminder token.
- 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.
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
Lycanthrope
Each night*, choose an alive player. If good, they die & the Demon doesn’t kill tonight. One good player registers as evil.
Beneath the thin veneer of civilisation lies a howling madness.
"Each night*, choose an alive player. If good, they die & the Demon doesn’t kill tonight. One good player registers as evil." The Lycanthrope roams at night, killing the innocent, whilst the Demon cowers indoors. The Lycanthrope must choose an alive player each night. If the Lycanthrope chooses a dead player, the Storyteller shakes their head no and prompts the Lycanthrope to choose a different player. If the player that the Lycanthrope chooses is good, that player dies, and the Demon cannot kill tonight. If the player the Lycanthrope attacks is evil, that player does not die, and the Demon may still kill tonight. If the Lycanthrope attacks a good player but that good player doesn’t die, the Demon may still kill tonight. While the Lycanthrope lives, one good player registers as evil. They cannot be killed by the Lycanthrope. This evil-registration does not effect win conditions. The good player that registers as evil still wins or loses with the good team.
How to Run
- During setup, mark one good player with the Lycanthrope’s FAUX PAW reminder.
- Each night except the first, wake the Lycanthrope. They point at any player. Put the Lycanthrope to sleep. If the chosen player is good, that player dies—mark them with the Lycanthrope’s DEAD reminder. Later that night, wake the Demon, as normal, but the Demon cannot kill. If the chosen player is evil, nothing happens.
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
Fisherman
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.
How to Run
- Once per game, the Fisherman will ask to use their ability. In private, give them once piece of advice to help them win. Then, put the No ability reminder by the Fisherman token.
Examples & Notes
- It is best to give the Fisherman advice on what to DO, not just information about what IS. This makes the Fisherman more fun and unique.
- Eg. Saying “You should execute that player” or “Keep this player alive” or “find out who is drunk” or “change your thinking entirely” or “ignore the Minions” or “trust this player” are much more interesting than saying “this player is evil” or “the Demon is a No Dashii”.
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
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.
Outsider
Moonchild
When you learn that you died, publicly choose 1 alive player. Tonight, if it was a good player, they die.
Scorpio looks sideways at the lovers, and you have a choice to make. With silver cross my palm, and your fate shall be revealed. With steel cross my throat, and by the stars you shall regret it.
"When you learn that you died, publicly choose 1 alive player. Tonight, if it was a good player, they die." The Moonchild curses someone upon death, killing them too. The Moonchild must choose a player within a minute or two of learning that they are dead, whether by an execution or at dawn when the Storyteller declares who died at night. The Moonchild can take their time and get advice from the group before making this decision. If the Moonchild chooses a good player, that player dies tonight. If they choose an evil player, nothing happens. As always, play along if an evil player is bluffing as the Moonchild and pretends to use their ability. It is not the Storyteller’s responsibility to prompt the Moonchild to choose a player. The Moonchild must do this shortly after they learn that they are dead. Deliberately not doing so is considered cheating. If the Moonchild is sober and healthy at night but was drunk or poisoned when they chose a player today, that player dies. If the Moonchild is drunk or poisoned at night but was sober and healthy when they chose a player today, that player doesn’t die. The Moonchild kills the Goon if the Goon was good when the Moonchild chose them, regardless of the Goon’s alignment at night.
How to Run
- When you declare that the Moonchild’s player has died, the Moonchild chooses any alive player. If the chosen player is good, mark their character token with the DEAD reminder. Tonight, the player marked with the Moonchild’s DEAD reminder dies.
Examples & Notes
- If the Moonchild doesn’t realize that they must choose a player when they die, privately remind them. New players may not understand how their character works.
Minion
Cerenovus
Each night, choose a player & a good character: they are “mad” they are this character tomorrow, or might be executed.
Reality is merely an opinion. Specifically, my opinion.
"Each night, choose a player & a good character: they are "mad" they are this character tomorrow, or might be executed." The Cerenovus encourages players to pretend to be different characters than they actually are. The Cerenovus chooses Townsfolk or Outsiders that players are mad about being. They must try to convince the group that they actually are this character tomorrow, or else die. Simply hinting is not enough to avoid death. The player must make a decent effort to convince the group. Mad players are never literally forced to say things they don’t want to—but if the Storyteller doesn’t hear them make an effort, they pay the price. Mad evil players might be executed this way, but “might” means you can choose not to, to prevent evil from winning by this strategy. Like the Mutant, an execution penalty counts as the one execution allowed per day.
How to Run
- Each night, wake the Cerenovus. They point at any player and at any Townsfolk or Outsider icon on their character sheet. Put the Cerenovus to sleep. Mark the chosen player with the MAD reminder. Wake this player, show them the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token, then the Cerenovus token, then the character token of the character they are mad about being. Put that player to sleep.
- During the next day or night, if you feel that the mad player has not done their best to convince the group they are this character, you can decide to execute them. Declare this to the group. They die. 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.)
Minion
Assassin
Once per game, at night*, choose a player: they die, even if for some reason they could not.
...
"Once per game, at night*, choose a player: they die, even if for some reason they could not." The Assassin kills who the Demon cannot. Once per game at night, the Assassin can kill a player. This player dies, even if they are protected from death in any way, such as from an ability. The Assassin ability is affected by drunkenness and poisoning, as normal. If the Assassin attacks the Goon, the Goon dies and turns evil.
How to Run
- Each night except the first, wake the Assassin. They either shake their head no or point at any player. Put the Assassin to sleep.
- If the Assassin chose a player, that player dies— mark them with the DEAD reminder. This cannot be prevented in any way (except if the Assassin doesn’t have their ability, such as if they’re drunk or poisoned). The Assassin loses their ability—mark them with the NO ABILITY reminder and remove their night token from the night sheet. (The Assassin won’t wake again.)
Minion
Marionette
You think you are a good character, but you are not. The Demon knows who you are. [You neighbor the Demon]
Words, words. They're all we have to go on.
"You think you are a good character, but you are not. The Demon knows who you are. [You neighbor the Demon]" The Marionette doesn't know that they are a Minion. The Marionette draws either a Townsfolk or an Outsider token from the bag, but is secretly the Marionette. The Marionette neighbors the Demon. There are no players sitting in between the Marionette and the Demon. The Demon knows which player is the Marionette. On the first night, the Marionette does not wake to learn the other evil players, and the other Minions do not learn the Marionette. The good ability that the Marionette thinks they have doesn’t work, but the Storyteller pretends it does. It is just as if this player is the Drunk. The Marionette registers as evil, and as a Minion.
How to Run
- While setting up the game, before putting tokens in the bag, remove the Marionette token and add any Townsfolk token.
- If there are three Minions in play, remove another Minion token and add another Townsfolk token. During the first night, swap a good player’s character token with a not-in-play Minion character token. Wake this player, show them the YOU ARE info token then their Minion character token, then the YOU ARE info token then a thumbs down, then put them to sleep. This player is now an evil Minion. (This ensures that only one Minion token is in the bag, so at least one good player will neighbor the Demon.)
- During the first night, mark a good player neighboring the Demon with the IS THE MARIONETTE reminder. Wake the Demon. Point to the player marked IS THE MARIONETTE and show the Marionette character token. Put the Demon to sleep.
- Treat the Marionette as if they were drunk. They wake when their good character would wake, may get false information, do not wake during the Minion Info step etc.

Po
Each night*, you may choose a player: they die. If your last choice was no-one, choose 3 players tonight.
Would you like a flower? I'm so lonely.
"Each night*, you may choose a player: they die. If your last choice was no-one, choose 3 players tonight." The Po can choose to attack nobody at night, but goes on a rampage the following night. The Po attacks one player per night, like many other Demons. However, if the Po chooses to attack nobody, then they may attack three players the following night. If the Po was drunk or poisoned when they chose nobody last night, they still choose three players tonight. A Po must choose three players when prompted to do so. They cannot choose no one again. The Po only gets three attacks if they chose nobody. The Po does not get three attacks if they chose to attack someone the previous night, but that player did not die. The Po doesn’t act on the first night, but this night does not count as a night where the Po “chose no one.” If the Exorcist selects the Po, the Po does not act, but this night does not count as a night where the Po “chose no one.” However, if the Po chose no one the night before the Exorcist chose the Po, the Po chooses three players the night after the Exorcist chose the Po, because their last choice was no one.
How to Run
- Each night except the first, wake the Po. They either shake their head no or point at any player. Put the Po to sleep. If they shook their head no, mark the Po with the 3 ATTACKS reminder. If they chose a player, that player dies—mark them with a DEAD reminder.
- If the Po wakes to act while marked 3 ATTACKS, they point at any three players, one at a time. In the order chosen, each chosen player dies—mark them with DEAD reminders. Remove the 3 ATTACKS reminder.
Demon
Vortox
Each night*, choose a player: they die. Townsfolk abilities yield false info. Each day, if no-one is executed, evil wins.
Black is White. Right is Wrong. Left is Right. Up is Long. Down is Sight. Short is Blind. Follow me. Answers find.
"Each night*, choose a player: they die. Townsfolk abilities yield false info. Each day, if no-one is executed, evil wins." The Vortox makes all information false. Anytime a Townsfolk player gets information from their ability, they get false information. Even if they are drunk or poisoned, it must be false. The Vortox does not affect information gained by other means, such as when the Storyteller explains the rules, or when a player’s character or alignment changes. When night falls, if nobody was executed today, evil wins. Exiling a Traveller does not count.
How to Run
- While the Vortox is alive, you must give false information whenever a Townsfolk ability prompts you to give information.
- Each night except the first, wake the Vortox. They point at any player. That player dies - mark them with the DEAD reminder. Put the Vortox to sleep.
- Each dusk, if no player was executed today, the game ends and the evil team wins.
Demon
Lord of Typhon
Each night*, choose a player: they die. [Evil characters are in a line. You are in the middle. +1 Minion. -? to +? Outsiders]
In the shadowed and forgotten corners of the cosmos, where the stars whisper secrets to the void, lies a truth so profound that the merest glimpse of it unravels the sanity of mortal minds.
"Each night*, choose a player: they die. [Evil characters are in a line. You are in the middle. +1 Minion. -? to +? Outsiders]" The Lord of Typhon is surrounded by Minions. All evil characters sit next to each other in a continuous line. All evil characters must be in the line at setup. Evil Travellers and Evil Townsfolk may be part of the line, but do not have to be. The Lord of Typhon must have an evil character on both sides. They cannot sit at the end of the line of evil characters. The evil team starts with one additional Minion when the Lord of Typhon is in play. Any number of Outsiders might be in play. Like the Marionette, the Storyteller decides which players are Minions during setup. The Storyteller also decides which player is which Minion. If a Lord of Typhon is created mid game, the Lord of Typhon does not need to sit in a line with the evil characters.
How to Run
- During setup, remove all Minion tokens and add Townsfolk or Outsider tokens.
- During the first night, wake the appropriate number of players directly clockwise and counter-clockwise from the Lord of Typhon. Show each of these players a unique Minion token, and give a thumbs down. Replace these players' good character tokens with these Minion tokens and put these players to sleep. Then, do the Minion Info and Demon Info steps as normal.
- Each night except the first, wake the Lord of Typhon. They point at any player. That player dies—mark them with the DEAD reminder. Put the Lord of Typhon to sleep.
