Characters
Townsfolk
InvestigatorYou start knowing that 1 of 2 players is a particular Minion.
ShugenjaYou start knowing if your closest evil player is clockwise or anti-clockwise. If equidistant, this info is arbitrary.
PixieYou start knowing 1 in-play Townsfolk. If you were mad that you were this character, you gain their ability when they die.
Snake CharmerEach night, choose an alive player: a chosen Demon swaps characters & alignments with you & is then poisoned.
MathematicianEach night, you learn how many players' abilities worked abnormally (since dawn) due to another character's ability.
Town CrierEach night*, you learn if a Minion nominated today.
OracleEach night*, you learn how many dead players are evil.
GossipEach day, you may make a public statement. Tonight, if it was true, a player dies.
AlsaahirEach day, if you publicly guess which players are Minion(s) and which are Demon(s), good wins.
SeamstressOnce per game, at night, choose 2 players (not yourself): you learn if they are the same alignment.
ArtistOnce per game, during the day, privately ask the Storyteller any yes/no question.
AlchemistYou have a not-in-play Minion ability.
MagicianThe Demon thinks you are a Minion. Minions think you are a Demon.
Outsider
OgreOn your 1st night, choose a player (not yourself): you become their alignment (you don't know which) even if drunk or poisoned.
Recluse
You might register as evil & as a Minion or Demon, even if dead.
SweetheartWhen you die, 1 player is drunk from now on.
DamselAll Minions know you are in play. If a Minion publicly guesses you (once), your team loses.
Minion
GodfatherYou start knowing which Outsiders are in play. If 1 died today, choose a player tonight: they die.
WitchEach night, choose a player: if they nominate tomorrow, they die. If just 3 players live, you lose this ability.
CerenovusEach night, choose a player & a good character: they are "mad" they are this character tomorrow, or might be executed.
AssassinOnce per game, at night*, choose a player: they die, even if for some reason they could not.
Demon
No DashiiEach night*, choose a player: they die. Your 2 Townsfolk neighbours are poisoned.
VigormortisEach night*, choose a player: they die. Minions you kill keep their ability & poison 1 Townsfolk neighbour. [-1 Outsider]
VortoxEach night*, choose a player: they die. Townsfolk abilities yield false info. Each day, if no-one is executed, evil wins.
LleechEach night*, choose a player: they die. You start by choosing an alive player: they are poisoned - you die if & only if they die.
Fabled & Loric
DjinnUse the Djinn's special rule. All players know what it is.
