Characters

Shugenja
You start knowing if your closest evil player is clockwise or anti-clockwise. If equidistant, this info is arbitrary.
Pixie
You start knowing 1 in-play Townsfolk. If you were mad that you were this character, you gain their ability when they die.
Balloonist
Each night, you learn 1 player of each character type, until there are no more types to learn. [+1 Outsider]
Village Idiot
Each night, choose a player: you learn their alignment. [+0 to +2 Village Idiots. 1 of the extras is drunk]
Juggler
On your 1st day, publicly guess up to 5 players' characters. That night, you learn how many you got correct.
Minstrel
When a Minion dies by execution, all other players (except Travellers) are drunk until dusk tomorrow.

Drunk
You do not know you are the Drunk. You think you are a Townsfolk character, but you are not.
Recluse
You might register as evil & as a Minion or Demon, even if dead.

Cerenovus
Each night, choose a player & a good character: they are "mad" they are this character tomorrow, or might be executed.
Marionette
You think you are a good character but you are not. The Demon knows who you are. [You neighbour the Demon]

Leviathan
If more than 1 good player is executed, you win. All players know you are in play. After day 5, evil wins.
Riot
Nominees die, but may nominate again immediately (on day 3, they must). After day 3, evil wins. [All Minions are Riot]
