The Tor-ror of it All
v3.0.0by Jo MamaCustomDifficulty:
Bootlegger rules
- The Cerenovus and Gambler both wake each night*.
- The Librarian and Investigator learn names, but not roles. When they die, they learn what they themselves are.
- If a Player chooses someone that cannot be lawfully chosen (e.g. DA two nights in a row), they are not told to choose again. The ability does not work.
- If the Golem does not have an ability anymore, their nomination does not count but is still run. Instead, the person with the highest number of eligible votes dies.
