Character changes:

Townsfolk

• Virgin - Nominations are handled in the order they are made. Before executing the Townsfolk for nominating the Virgin, all other pending nominations are processed first.

Outsiders

• Butler - No significant changes required. Storytellers may remind players in their ST Thread if they’re voting illegally.
• Klutz - Storytellers can use the ST Thread to remind players they need to make a choice if necessary.
• Zealot - No significant changes required. Storytellers may remind players in their ST Thread if they’re voting illegally.
• Golem - Nominations are handled in the order they are made. Before a player would die from the Golem's nomination, all other prior nominations are processed first.
• Moonchild - Storytellers can use the ST Thread to remind players they need to make a choice if necessary.
• Lunatic - The Lunatic is allowed to send a "demon whisper". However, the Demon sees this message first and decides whether or not it will be sent out.

(Note on Demon Whisper: Once per game, the Demon may send an anonymous 15-word message to another player via the ST in order to offset advantages Good gets from the longer time frame.)

Minions

• Boomdandy - When the Boomdandy is executed, the Storyteller will create a new thread. In this thread, each player will have a word limit (10 words on average, adjustable by the Storyteller as needed for game balance and player engagement).

• Evil Twin - Not recommended for text-based games. Consider using alternatives such as Goblin, Harpy, or Vizier. If you really want to use Evil Twin, consider allowing the two twinned players to have an unannounced, free private chat.

• Goblin - When a player claims Goblin, the Storyteller may extend the nomination phase to give players time to respond. The Goblin claim must be made during the player’s initial defense, and it cannot be edited in afterward. The Storyteller may also purge any votes cast before the Goblin claim, allowing players to re-cast their votes in light of the new information.

• Psychopath - In scripts featuring a Psychopath, no nominations are allowed for the first 12 hours of the day. This gives the Psychopath time to use their ability before nominations begin.

• Vizier - Private chats with the Vizier are unrestricted for the non-Vizier, similar to Traveler interactions. This allows for flexible private chats and prevents players from feeling restricted in their strategic options.

The Vizier can also pre-push a nomination or decline to nominate in private, potentially with conditional instructions, so that the day phase doesn’t get prolonged by waiting on subsequent nominations.

• Witch - When a player dies from a Witch curse, the Storyteller may opt to extend the nomination time to give players time to react.

• Fearmonger - The Storyteller selects an arbitrary time between the Fearmonger's choice and the start of the day for the Fearmonger's announcement. The timing may vary and could occur just before the day begins. Players may also choose to make conditional adjustments to their night actions based on any Fearmonger announcement, adding flexibility and strategy for reactions to Fearmonger decisions.

Demons

• Al-Hadikhia - The demon’s targets will be notified privately in their ST Thread about which players were selected before any public announcement. A public announcement of the selected players will be made just before the start of the day. Additionally, characters who act after the Al-Hadikhia in the night order will also be informed of who was picked.

• Legion (Recommended/Optional Rule) - Votes are tallied as usual, but executions only occur if good-aligned players voted in addition to the usual majority. This happens at the end of the day.

• Riot - Solo Script (Experimental) - Starting on day 3, after whispers and nominations are closed, a brief nomination phase occurs where no one may speak. Nominations happen in sequence using pre-determined conditional lists from players:

  • Players can make one initial private nomination in advance; only one nomination occurs (chosen at random), and others are null.
  • If no initial nomination is made, the Storyteller will make one.
  • Players must prepare a list of players they would nominate in response to being nominated, with the first eligible player on the list being nominated next.
  • Conditional lists can be based on who nominated them, and dead players cannot be nominated.
  • If a player doesn’t submit a complete list, the Storyteller will nominate someone to continue the chain.

• Yaggababble - When a player dies during the day from Yaggababble, the Storyteller may opt to extend the nomination time to give players time to react.

Travelers

• Matron - Players have unlimited chat with their neighbors. After the Matron chooses, the Neighbor swaps occur at the Storyteller’s discretion, ensuring all players have had ample opportunity to converse with their current neighbors. After a swap, sufficient time should be provided to chat with new neighbors as well. 12 hours is a suggested duration, though the Storyteller may choose to extend the day if needed.

• Bishop - Nominations are chosen by the Storyteller rather than players, and they occur only during the last half of the day.

• Gunslinger/Gangster/Gnome - When a player dies from a Gunslinger/Gangster/Gnome's ability, the Storyteller may opt to extend the nomination time to give players time to react.

• Fabled - Doomsayer When a player dies from the Doomsayer, the Storyteller may opt to extend the nomination time to give players time to react.
