Notes

The Recluse can misregister during setup. A Marionette might neighbor a Recluse. A Recluse can sit inside a Typhon line. (The Recluse will not modify character type counts.) A script where player position matters. With poison and madness, true confirmation is questionable and evil must manufacture suspicion. The Bootlegger mostly enables some Storyteller choices that are technically allowed without a bootlegger but are codified for clarity. â¢ The Lord of Typhon can be on the edge of the line if the Recluse is a neighbor. â¢ The Recluse can sit inside the line as an 'evil' which would cause the line to extend further. To invoke this during setup, simply skip over the Recluse when converting players into Minions and continue from there. NOTE: If the Recluse misregisters during setup, it does not affect the correct count of character types. (Update: Fixed PDF)

Townsfolk

Knight

You start knowing 2 players that are not the Demon.

When a man lies, he murders some part of the world.

"You start knowing 2 players that are not the Demon." The Knight knows players that are not the Demon. On the first night, the Knight learns two players who are not the Demon. On subsequent nights, they learn nothing more. The Knight can learn Townsfolk, Outsiders or even Minions but does not learn which character type they are.

How to Run

During setup, mark two non-Demon players with the Knight’s KNOW reminders. During the first night, wake the Knight. Point to the two players marked KNOW.

Townsfolk

Noble

You start knowing 3 players, 1 and only 1 of which is evil.

Sarcasm is indeed the lowest form of wit. But speaking in response to your criticism, Sir, it is, nevertheless, a form of wit.

"You start knowing 3 players, 1 and only 1 of which is evil." The Noble learns that one of three players is evil. The Noble learns their information on the first night only. If a Noble is created mid-game, the Noble learns their information on their first night. The Noble learns two good players and one evil player. They may not learn one good player and two evil players. They may not learn three evil players.

How to Run

While preparing the first night, mark two good players' character tokens with Noble KNOW reminders. Mark any evil player's character token with the third KNOW reminder.
During the first night, wake the Noble. Point to all three players marked KNOW. Put the Noble to sleep.

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.

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

During setup, you may add an Outsider.
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.
Each night, wake the Balloonist. Point to the player marked KNOW. Put the Balloonist to sleep.

Townsfolk

Preacher

Each night, choose a player: a Minion, if chosen, learns this. All chosen Minions have no ability.

It is better to be rich and healthy than poor and sick.

"Each night, choose a player: a Minion, if chosen, learns this. All chosen Minions have no ability." The Preacher removes Minion abilities. If the Preacher chooses a Minion, that Minion is woken to learn that they have been preached, and can no longer act while the Preacher is alive, sober, and healthy. If the Preacher chooses a player who is not a Minion, nothing happens. The Preacher may choose dead players. If the Preacher is drunk or poisoned at the time they choose a player, that player is not affected by the Preacher’s ability. If the Preacher becomes drunk or poisoned, preached Minions regain their abilities until the Preacher is sober and healthy.

How to Run

Each night, wake the Preacher. They point to a player. Put the Preacher to sleep. If the Preacher choose a Minion, mark that Minion with a NO ABILITY reminder, wake the Minion and show them the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token then the Preacher token, then put them to sleep.
All Minions marked NO ABILITY have no ability while the Preacher is alive.

Townsfolk

Town Crier

Each night*, you learn if a Minion nominated today.

Hear ye! Hear ye! Witchcraft in the labyrinth! Genius savant reveals all! Town in danger! Hear Ye!

"Each night*, you learn if a Minion nominated today." The Town Crier knows when Minions nominate. Each night, the Town Crier learns either a “yes” or a “no”. They do not learn which players are Minions or how many Minions made nominations, just whether or not any Minions made nominations today.

How to Run

Each dawn, mark the Town Crier with the MINIONS NOT NOMINATED reminder, and remove the MINION NOMINATED reminder, if any.
Each day, if any Minion makes a nomination, replace the MINIONS NOT NOMINATED reminder with the MINION NOMINATED reminder.
Each night except the first, wake the Town Crier. If the Town Crier is marked MINIONS NOT NOMINATED, shake your head no. If the Town Crier is marked MINION NOMINATED, nod your head yes. Then, put the Town Crier to sleep. Remove the MINION NOMINATED reminder, if any.

Examples & Notes

If you forget whether a Minion made a nomination or not, wake each Minion at night and ask by showing them the DID YOU NOMINATE TODAY? info token. They must answer honestly, then go to sleep.

Townsfolk

Philosopher

Once per game, at night, choose a good character: gain that ability. If this character is in play, they are drunk.

If anything is real, beer is real. Drink, for tomorrow we may die.

"Once per game, at night, choose a good character: gain that ability. If this character is in play, they are drunk." The Philosopher has no ability until they decide which character they want to emulate. They can do this once per game. When they do so, they gain that character’s ability. They do not become that character. They may want to wait a while to choose. If the Philosopher chooses a character that is already in play, the player of that character becomes drunk. If the Philosopher then dies or becomes drunk or poisoned, the player they are making drunk becomes sober again. If the Philosopher chose a character that was not in play at the time but is in play now, that character is drunk. If the Philosopher gains an ability that works at night, they wake when that character would wake. If this ability is used on the first night only, they use it tonight. If the Philosopher regains their ability via the Bone Collector, or uses their ability twice via the Barista, the Philosopher may choose a new ability, or the same ability as before. If the Philosopher’s ability works while dead, such as the Klutz’s, it works if the Philosopher is dead.

How to Run

Each night, wake the Philosopher. They either shake their head no or point at any Townsfolk icon or any Outsider icon on their character sheet. Put the Philosopher to sleep.
If they pointed to an icon of a character not in play, swap the Philosopher token with the chosen character token and mark them with the IS THE PHILOSOPHER reminder.
If they pointed to an icon of a character in play, the player of the chosen character becomes drunk - mark them with the DRUNK reminder. (You can now use the duplicated character’s reminders for the Philosopher). If the Philosopher dies, the player made drunk by the Philosopher becomes sober - remove the DRUNK reminder.

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

Cannibal

You have the ability of the recently killed executee. If they are evil, you are poisoned until a good player dies by execution.

I don’t like clowns. They taste funny.

"You have the ability of the recently killed executee. If they are evil, you are poisoned until a good player dies by execution." The Cannibal eats executed characters, gaining their ability. If a good player dies by execution, the Cannibal gains that player’s ability. If an evil player dies by execution, the Cannibal only thinks that they gain an ability, since the Cannibal is poisoned. The Storyteller may be lying to them. Each time a player dies by execution, the Cannibal loses the ability of the previous player. Executing a dead player won’t grant the Cannibal an ability. Executing a living player who doesn’t die won’t grant the Cannibal an ability. A player must be executed and die for the Cannibal to gain their ability. The Cannibal is not told which ability they have gained. They must figure that out for themselves. If the Cannibal has an “even if dead” ability, such as the Recluse, or an ability that implies it works while dead, such as the Ravenkeeper or Sweetheart, the Cannibal keeps that ability when they die, but loses their Cannibal ability.

How to Run

If a good player dies by execution, mark them with the LUNCH reminder, and remove the Cannibal’s POISONED reminder if necessary. The Cannibal now has this good player’s ability (do not say which), and will wake at night when this good character would normally wake.
If an evil player dies by execution, mark them with the LUNCH reminder and mark the Cannibal with the POISONED reminder. The Cannibal is poisoned. You may wake them when this evil character would normally wake, and pretend that they have a new ability.

Examples & Notes

Pay attention to which character each evil player is bluffing as. If they are executed, then their bluffed ability is the best one to pretend that the Cannibal has gained.

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

Ravenkeeper

If you die at night, you are woken to choose a player: you learn their character.

My birds will avenge me! Fly! Fly, my sweet and dutiful pets! To the manor and to the river! To the alleys and to the salons! Fly!

"If you die at night, you are woken to choose a player: you learn their character." If the Ravenkeeper dies at night, they get to learn one player's character. The Ravenkeeper is woken on the night that they die, and chooses a player immediately. The Ravenkeeper may choose a dead player if they wish.

How to Run

If the Ravenkeeper died tonight, wake them. They point at any player. Show the chosen player's character token to the Ravenkeeper. Put the Ravenkeeper to sleep.
We advise you to discourage or even ban players from talking about what they are doing at night as they are doing it.

Outsider

Recluse1-75

당신은 하수인이나 악마로 보일 수도 있습니다. 이 능력은 당신이 죽어도 유지됩니다.

Not written yet.

Outsider

Klutz

When you learn that you died, publicly choose 1 alive player: if they are evil, your team loses.

Oops.

"When you learn that you died, publicly choose 1 alive player: if they are evil, your team loses." The Klutz might accidentally lose the game for their team, unless they are clever. When the Klutz dies, they must declare a player. They may take a few minutes to do so—after all, it’s a big decision, and other players may give advice on who to choose, but it is always the Klutz’s decision. If they choose an evil player, the game ends immediately and the good team loses. If they choose a good player, nothing happens and the game continues. It is not the Storyteller’s responsibility to prompt the Klutz to declare they are the Klutz and choose a player. The Klutz must do this shortly after they learn that they are dead. Deliberately not doing so is considered cheating.

How to Run

When the Klutz player is declared dead, they must declare that they are the Klutz and then point at any player. (Give them time.) If they choose an evil player, the game ends and the evil team wins. If they choose a good player, the game continues.
In the strange situation where the Klutz is evil and chooses an evil player, then the game ends and the good team wins instead.

Examples & Notes

If the Klutz player doesn’t realize that they must choose a player when they die, privately remind them. New players may not understand how their character works.

Outsider

Hatter

If you died today or tonight, the Minion & Demon players may choose new Minion & Demon characters to be.

One Hat. Too Hat. Three Hat. Tea Hat. Fore Hat. Thrive Hat. Six Hat. Sticks Hat.

"If you died today or tonight, the Minion & Demon players may choose new Minion & Demon characters to be." The Hatter allows the evil players to change characters. Each player with a Minion or Demon character may choose to become any character of the same type as their current character. They may choose not to change characters. If a player becomes a new character, they gain the new ability, even if it was a "you start knowing" ability or a once per game ability that had already been used. Once a player has changed character, their previous character ability has no further effect on the game. If a player dies then becomes the Hatter, the evil players do not change characters tonight. Once a character has been chosen, a second player cannot choose the same character. If it is already in play, the player with that character must choose a new character.

How to Run

If the Hatter dies, mark them with the TEA PARTY TONIGHT reminder.
During that night, wake the Minions and Demon. Show them the THIS CHARACTER SELECTED YOU info token, then the Hatter token. Each player either shakes their head no or points to another character of the same type as their current character. If a second player would end up with the same character as another player, shake your head no and gesture for them to choose again. Put them to sleep. Remove the TEA PARTY TONIGHT reminder. Change each player to the character they chose.

Examples & Notes

Optional rule: if the Hatter dies, allow the Demon to become a Minion, and a Minion to become a Demon. This may cause some chaos among the evil team as they try to communicate silently at night about who wants to be the Demon.

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

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.
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

Poisoner

Each night, choose a player: they are poisoned tonight and tomorrow day.

Add compound Alpha to compound Beta... NOT TOO MUCH!

"Each night, choose a player: they are poisoned tonight and tomorrow day." The Poisoner secretly disrupts character abilities. Each night, the Poisoner chooses someone to poison for that night and the entire next day. A poisoned player has no ability, but the Storyteller pretends they do. They do not affect the game in any real way. However, to keep up the illusion that the poisoned player is not poisoned, the Storyteller wakes them at the appropriate time and goes through the motions as if they were not poisoned. If their ability gives them information, the Storyteller may give them false information. If a poisoned player uses a "once per game" ability while poisoned, they cannot use their ability again.

How to Run

Each night, wake the Poisoner. They point at any player. The chosen player becomes poisoned—put the POISONED reminder token by the chosen player's character token. Put the Poisoner to sleep. (This poisoned player wakes and acts normally. They have no ability, but they think they do. If their ability would give them information, you can give false information to them if you wish. See “Drunkenness and Poisoning” in the rulebook.)
Each dusk, the poisoned player becomes healthy—remove their POISONED reminder.

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

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.

Minion

Scarletwoman1-75

만약 살아있는 플레이어가 5명 이상이라면, 악마가 죽으면 당신은 악마가 됩니다. 여행자는 세지 않습니다.

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.

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.

Traveller

Gangster

Once per day, you may choose to kill an alive neighbor, if your other alive neighbor agrees.

I like your shoes. It would be such a shame if you had a little accident, and they got ruined. Now that you mention it, I like your cufflinks too.

"Once per day, you may choose to kill an alive neighbor, if your other alive neighbor agrees." The Gangster encourages their neighbors to kill each other. The Gangster may kill one of their two living neighbors. Their dead neighbors are skipped over, and do not count. To use their ability, the Gangster and one of their living neighbors must agree to kill the other living neighbor. The Storyteller must hear and confirm this agreement. The Gangster cannot kill without the Storyteller present. Each day, the Gangster may say whatever they want, and offer any encouraging words they want to either player. Once an agreement has been reached, then the Gangster may not use their ability again today, even if that player didn’t die due to an ability protecting them. The Gangster’s two living neighbors are always one clockwise, and one counter-clockwise. If both living neighbors want to kill the other, the Gangster decides who dies.

How to Run

Once per day, the Gangster can declare that they wish to use their ability. If so, ask if an alive neighbor agrees. If an alive neighbor agrees, the other alive neighbor dies. If both alive neighbors agree, the Gangster chooses which alive neighbor dies. If neither alive neighbor agrees, the Gangster may not use their ability today.

Traveller

Bone Collector

Once per game, at night*, choose a dead player: they regain their ability until dusk.

I collect many things. Hair. Teeth. Clothes. Fragments of poems. The dreams of lost lovers. My secret arts are not for you to know but my fee is a mere pittance. Bring me the blood of a noblewoman who died of heartbreak under a full moon, and you shall have your answers.

"Once per game, at night*, choose a dead player: they regain their ability until dusk." The Bone Collector temporarily gives dead players their ability back. The Bone Collector must choose a dead player. The chosen player remains dead, but they get their ability to use. If their ability was a “you start knowing” or a “once per game” ability—such as the Virgin, Slayer, Clockmaker, Seamstress, or Juggler—they may use it again, even if it was already used, until dusk falls. When the Bone Collector chooses a player, that player does not learn they were selected by the Bone Collector, although they find out soon enough when they are woken to use their ability. If the Bone Collector dies, that player no longer has the ability they regained due to the Bone Collector.

How to Run

Each night except the first, wake the Bone Collector. They either shake their head no or point at any dead player. Put the Bone Collector to sleep.
If they pointed at a dead player, the chosen player regains their ability—mark their character token with the Bone Collector’s HAS ABILITY reminder. (They may need to be woken tonight to use their ability.) The Bone Collector loses their ability—mark them with their NO ABILITY reminder. The next dusk, the chosen player loses their ability—remove the HAS ABILITY reminder.

Judge

Once per game, if another player nominated, you may choose to force the current execution to pass or fail.

I find the defendant guilty of the crimes of murder, fraud, arson, larceny, impersonating an officer of the law, practicing medicine without a license, slander, regicide, and littering.

"Once per game, if another player nominated, you may choose to force the current execution to pass or fail." The Judge can determine if an execution succeeds or not, regardless of who voted. The Judge can decide to pardon a player that they think is innocent, to condemn a player that they think is guilty, or vice versa. If the nominee is pardoned, then they are not executed today, and none of the votes for them count. If the nominee is condemned, then they are executed immediately, regardless of how many votes they received, and regardless of whether another player was about to die by execution. Then the day ends, because there can normally only be one execution per day. The Judge may use their ability during or after the votes are tallied. However, once a new player has been nominated, then the Judge may only use their ability on this new nominee. The Judge may only use their ability once, and only if a different player made a nomination.

How to Run

At any time during a nomination for execution—from the moment that the nomination is declared to the moment before a new player is nominated for execution—the Judge can declare that this execution succeeds or fails. If the Judge declares that it succeeds, the nominated player is executed and you may proceed to the night phase (as there may only be one execution per day). If the Judge declares that it fails, the nominated player is no longer about to die and they are treated as receiving zero votes for execution, and the nomination process continues. The Judge loses their ability—put the Judge’s NO ABILITY reminder token by the Judge token.

Beggar

You must use a vote token to vote. If a dead player gives you theirs, you learn their alignment. You are sober & healthy.

Alms for the poor, good Sir? Spare a coin, Madam? Thank you. God bless! You're a right kind soul and no mistake! I'll have some swanky nosh tonight, I will!

"You must use a vote token to vote. If a dead player gives you theirs, you learn their alignment. You are sober and healthy." The Beggar can not vote unless someone gives them a token to use, but they learn if the player that does so is good or evil. The Beggar cannot raise their hand to vote at all unless they have a vote token. When they do vote, they lose one vote token. If they have more than one, they may only use one at a time. Only a dead player may give their vote token to the Beggar, after which that dead player cannot vote. Each dead player decides for themself whether to give the Beggar their vote token. No one, including the Beggar, may move a player’s vote token on their behalf. When a player gives their vote token to the Beggar, the Beggar learns whether that player is good or evil. The Beggar can still nominate freely, and can still vote for an exile freely, because exiles are not affected by abilities. If the Beggar dies, they gain one vote token to use while dead, just like any other character would. However, the Beggar loses all their previously acquired vote tokens. If the Beggar would become drunk or poisoned, they do not. The ability to donate vote tokens is unique to the Beggar ability. Players may not give their vote token to a player that is not the Beggar, whether or not a Beggar is in play.

How to Run

The Beggar cannot vote unless they have a vote token. They lose one vote token each time they vote.
During the day, a dead player can declare that they give their vote token to the Beggar. Transfer the vote token to the Beggar and privately tell the Beggar the alignment of that player.

Loric

Bootlegger

This script has homebrew characters or rules.

When I was born, I was named ‘Homebrewy McHomebrewface’, like my father before me. A respectable name, for a dignified age.

"This script has homebrew characters or rules." Add the Bootlegger to include homebrew characters or rules. The Bootlegger allows Storytellers to use characters they, or others, have created that are not official characters or allows them to use non-standard rules in the game. If there are homebrew characters on the character sheet, or homebrew rules in effect, the Storyteller tells all players what they are before play begins. The Bootlegger allows for multiple characters or rules to be in effect at once. As long as there is at least one homebrew character on the current script, this Loric will be in play and can only be removed by switching to a script that does not contain any homebrew characters. The Bootlegger is designed for use in the official app only. Bootlegger, despite many claims to the contrary, defeated Homebrewy McHomebrewface, “the people’s choice”, in a hotly contested poll to decide the Loric's name.

How to Run

At the start of the game, if there are homebrew characters on the character sheet or you are running homebrew rules, declare that the Bootlegger is in play and inform the group of all the homebrew characters and/or rules you are using in this game.
