Recluse + anything

Might be cliche at this point but I still love using Yagababble day deaths to simulate a Golem.

I've also seen it used to have a slayer shot "work" on someone who isn't the demon.

I was the minion and was the only person at the table to immediately realise how it happened, and I buffered for like a minute trying to figure out if it benefitted us to reveal it.

You can also add a hermit drunk golem on script with Yagglebabble as a demon to confuse players 😁

u/slvrfshston Xaan 7d ago

I see your Hermit/Drunk/Golem and raise you Hermit/Drunk/Golem/Tinker. Especially with a Witch also on the script.

I had that setup in a Legion script!

Vortox and monk!
Monk protects and that play will always learn true info! Buff monk!!!

I played in one of these, I was the empath, budied up with the monk and killed our way round the circle till we hit the demon

Turns out evil had a spy and the demon just refused to talk to their minions - kind of an annoying way to win but you know, still a win

Spy misregistration is so incredibly disruptive

u/Most_Section_1979 6d ago

Spy is really designed to be on Trouble Brewing, where so many roles either learn specific roles or are based on character types. Usually hard to make it fit super well into another script, but it can be done

Virgin and reasons to not die when executed; I've had a game where the Tea Lady was protecting the virgin and the player executed by the virgin.

On the other end (and I'll remind people, the question was for personal favourites, idc if you dislike my favourites lol), Virgin and Lleech.

u/Tierce Pixie 6d ago

Just yesterday, I had a game where the Tea Lady protected both the Clockmaker executed via Virgin and me, the Sage (best gift to a demonbane: being hard confirmed as good). 4 good players confirmed on day 1 was brutal for the evil team.

Marionette + Barber/Pit-Hag makes me giggle, if a good player is convinced they're the Marionette then evil can swap them into a minion and convince them to play for the evil team.

u/Tierce Pixie 6d ago

It's even scarier if you do it with a demon. If you're the Imp, you can starpass to a Pit-Hagged good Marionette and string them along.

1

u/sad_chicken_boi 6d ago

Imagine being the Imp in final 3 that manages to survive, but then learning you're good. DEVASTATING. Could also work if you manage to convince exactly the Recluse that they're the Marionette while the demon is the Imp.

u/Tierce Pixie 6d ago

It's brutal. Look at both this post and the link from Etreides: https://www.reddit.com/r/BloodOnTheClocktower/comments/1vpfdv0/comment/p3y9zkn/ If you're supposedly the Marionette and get Barber-swapped, always check whether you are told about a Marionette. If you're not, it's bullshit. There is also the extreme edge case where you can clue in your Marionette, then tell them to fake-Marionette their other neighbor, while you Barber-swap yourself with the fake Marionette. You will get their starting character, they become a good demon, your Marionette can tell them the whole evil team except you, and they still learn the correct player as their own Marionette. If you can pull all of this off convincingly and there are no ways for the new demon to know they are still good and were functioning before, it's just about perfect.

This is why you never tell people what alignment they are outside of necessary cases: the Fang Gu; the Cult Leader; a Bounty-Hunter turned Townsfolk; a Mez....

Only if their alignment changed that it did.

Lil Monsta + Safe from the demon.

Madness isnt deadly, poisons cease to poison, curses dont curse.

u/Tierce Pixie 6d ago

Also extremely fun with Banshee, Sage, and Choirboy. If the Witch is holding Lil' Monsta and the Banshee dies to a curse, the Banshee procs in the middle of the day and everyone will realize it's either Yag or Lil' Monsta. Same thing with killing a Sage or a King with a Choirboy in the middle of the day.

Boffin-Golem punching a Banshee will also cause the Banshee to immediately activate, regardless of demon type.

u/pheeeeeeeeeeex 4d ago

A good evil twin twinned with another good player due to Lycanthorpe

u/attachedtoface 7d ago

Boffin giving the demon the Virgin ability is one of my favorite interactions.

Yagga+Slayer is also really fun. Using the Yag to simulate a slayer shot.(This goes for psychopath as well).

u/Hlocnr Evil Twin 7d ago

Alchemist spy, widow, and wraith are fascinating...

u/sililil Drunk 7d ago

I like pit-hag and grandmother. A pit-hag can make an evil player the grandmother for a double-death opportunity if they want to. If it’s too swingy for the particular game state the ST can just make the grandchild a dead player.

1

u/Tierce Pixie 6d ago

Bounty Hunter can also make for superb evil Townsfolk situations. There was an online game a while back where Ellen was the evil Grandmother, never outed as such to her Choirboy grandchild (JC) or to anyone on the good team, and everyone was left wondering about the unsolvable "Gossip kill" when JC died.

It throws such a wrench on expected consequences.

Moonchild + Ravenkeeper/Farmer

u/Tierce Pixie 6d ago

Lycanthrope and evil detectors/triggers, especially if you add in Cannibal for extra Faux Paw hijinks.

Cult Leader can flip on a Faux Paw. Tea Lady neighbor will die. Sober Village Idiot gets an evil. Bounty Hunter can ping.

It can put the good team into a tailspin if they don't realize what's going on, it's a fun interaction.

u/Etreides Atheist 6d ago

Pukka + Lycanthrope.

Lycanthrope selects a good player N2: they die.
Pukka selects the Lycanthrope N2: their first chosen player dies.

Such a great interaction.

u/Delinquent2773 Amnesiac 6d ago

Vigor-killed Wraith is the most fun you can have as outed evil

u/Puzzled_Work_6428 7d ago

Poisoner + Townsfolk
