A December (and year) to Remember
A busy month, as always this time of year, allowed only 28 games to be played. This resulted in a grand total of 539 games played! I also managed to cross off Xaan and the new Riot as characters I have played, leaving just 10 characters I still have not played. A breakdown of all…

Xaan – A New Minion
Description Xaan – On night X, all Townsfolk are poisoned until dusk. [X Outsiders] Interactions Setting the outsider count to an arbitrary number, overriding any other modification on the script.

Description Boffin – The Demon (even if drunk or poisoned) has a not-in-play good character’s ability. You both know which. Interactions A few jinxes, 8 in fact, with this one, as one might expect.

A sober Clockmaker 0?
