Bootlegger rules

Each player has one of 15 scripts. Exactly one script held by a player is the true script.
The Storyteller is bound by the true script when giving information. So, any 'lies' they may tell to a drunk or poisoned player about in-play characters, or bluffs they give to The Demon, will be characters that appear on the true script.
The Amnesiac forgot which script is the true script! The Amnesiac's ability in this game is: Each night, choose a player. You learn whether they are holding the true script.
Players cannot swap scripts with each other.
Players must let other players look at their script upon request.
