this might also just be a long-winded way of asking if this interaction should be jinxed in some way

arctic olive
#

Ahhhhh yeah that's jinx worthy

#

RAW "you" refers to the ST

#

But intent is that you pretend there's an evil shrike alive

#

"If the Storyteller gains the Shrike's ability, they count as evil for it" is kinda awesome wording

Petition for damsel / bean spiller rejinx: "The first time there is a dead bean spiller, a minion chooses if the bean spiller or the damsel is poisoned"

#

A bit wordier but more interesting

arctic olive
#

Ooh

#

Sure

#

I think I'd rather make it a joint choice with all the Minions but the spirit of it is the same

#

release TOMORROW

arctic olive
#

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

#

You know what I'll try to make that happen

#

No promises tho

The Academy ∇ (I Look At My Reflection And Only See Death)

#

I've had a handful of characters that are sitting at "kinda almost done" for a while

brisk glen
#

real

#

but I just released 3 characters so no excuses

#

get on it

Mirorim

(Loric): Name some characters. Their abilities only work while they are dead.

Mirorim.png
#

“Does my reflection look back at me? Does it feel the same things I do? Does it know my deepest darkest secrets? I'd die to know.”

The Mirorim makes players want to die in order to gain their abilities.

If the Mirorim is in play, some characters' abilites will only work while those players are dead, instead of when they're alive. All players know which characters are affected.

Any setup effects of Mirrored characters still work as normal.

Any number of characters might be affects. There might be only one, or twenty, or anything in between. It's up to you.

If a character thinks they are a Mirrored character, wake them as if they are Mirrored, regardless of whether or not they are actually Mirrored.

Demons and Travelers can be Mirrored, but it is not recommended. Fabled and Loric cannot be Mirrored.

Examples

The Mirorim favors the Alsaahir, Knight, Flowergirl, Village Idiot, Heretic, and Organ Grinder. The Flowergirl is executed on day 1, and tonight they learn that a Demon voted today.

Wrendle is the Surveyor, which is Mirrored on this script. On night 1, they do not wake. On night 2, the Demon kills them, and they wake that night to choose a player and learn information.

The Mirorim favors the Balloonist and Witch in this game. There is no Balloonist in play, but the Demon learns it as a bluff. Lawrence, the Witch, bluffs Balloonist, and gets executed on day 1. Each night from now on, he curses a player with his Witch ability.

#

How to Run

At the start of the game, declare that the Mirorim is in play. Add the Mirorim token to the Grimoire. Declare which character(s) are favored by the Mirorim. If the favored character(s) are in play, mark them with the Mirorim’s MIRRORED reminders.

Mirrored players do not have their abilities while they are alive. Do not wake them due to their own ability (you should still wake them for other reasons, such as receiving Minion info). If a Mirrored player dies, they gain their ability. From now on, run their ability and wake them as normal.

#

oh and of course thank you to faketier for the icon!!!!

brisk glen
#

good on you for writing about the almanac

#

I was too lazy I just posted an image of the almanac

#

this is fire though I like it

#

very Loric-coded

arctic olive
brisk glen
#

yeah that's too much effort for me

#

at least on ipad discord, maybe there's a cool discord formatting website out there I don't know about

arctic olive
# brisk glen very Loric-coded

when loric were first announced i was like "im gonna wait and see what tpi puts out before making my own" and then they put out mostly bad loric so i was like im gonna do it myself

#

this one was pretty directly inspired by the phantom detectives from the world cup, as well as council of the dead from NOT the world cup (they have the same gimmick)

shrewd sphinx
#

CoTD is from the World Cup??

#

It was, like, one of my favorite World Cup scripts lol

#

Yo Mirrorim Mez is lowk balanced

arctic olive
#

CoTD is a world cup script, i am referring to a different script

#

with the same name

shrewd sphinx
#

Ahh ok lol

arctic olive
hoary flume
#

cant wait for hystrex to permanently mirorim cult leader

arctic olive
#

yes thats actually secretly the reason i made this character

hoary flume
#

its not that much of a secret 😉

arctic olive
#

fair enough lol

#

The Academy ∇

#

(havent decided what to release next yet)

#

:game_die: 2 (1 - 6)

#

arctic olive
#

True!

#

how does Gambler and Fool work

#

...is the answer “they don't”

arctic olive
#

Much like stormcaught gambler

brisk glen
desert turtle
#

what a silly thing to do

arctic olive
#

Gambler, uhh, can turn the goon!!

arctic olive
desert turtle
#

intrinsically aware (has played and ran Professor → Bone Collector BMR)

shrewd sphinx
#

Well the Fool survives the first time they're killed after they die

arctic olive
#

Mirorim has its fair share of bad interactions but part of the design is that you can put it on a gambler script and the gambler is unaffected

shrewd sphinx
#

They aren't revived, they just avoid dying twice

arctic olive
brisk glen
#

yeah no the fix here is make good scripts and not bad ones

desert turtle
brisk glen
#

that's kind of a cop out answer but it's also like fully expected

#

Hystrex has solved the 10 dollar question

arctic olive
#

If you can paste a zombuul ability onto a mirrored fool (not the other way around) then you need to triple tap them to kill them I think

#

Lorics see past zombuul misreg right

brisk glen
#

uhhhhh

#

I don't think this is how it would work either way?

arctic olive
#

Wait no you're right

brisk glen
#

if you Mirror a Zombuul it just dies normally

#

right

arctic olive
#

I was using both rulings at once

arctic olive
brisk glen
#

oh this is so silly lmao

arctic olive
#

I think it doesn't work but we can ignore that for the sake of whimsy

#

PEAK

#

GOOD LORIC

#

WELL DONE

serene egret
#

yeah this is awesome

#

"today I have chosen that it'd be based if the oracle played like a bait role"

#

It probably needs a script with very expendable minions/night deaths but still very cool

#

wait you can name evil characters 🔥 yeah this just gets cooler the more I think about it

glossy salmon
#

fuck you names goblin

wild pelican
#

That's not terrible if you have Zombuul on script.

#

welcome back, Vigormortis

#

(just to be clear, vig-killed mirrored minions still gain their ability on death, right?)

#

gonna mirror the demon on an evil twin script

arctic olive
#

Not a great combo

fiery sierra
#

Jinx them so vigor killed minions keep their ability even if alive

dull scaffold
#

nah lol

#

id bootleg jinx it as If the Vigormortis is in-play, Minions named aren't affected by the Loric.

arctic olive
#

It's been a while, I think it's time for a release

#

And I think it's time we finally got something that keeps in theme with the collection

#

Proffesor

(Townsfolk): Oncr per game, at night, choose a player: if they are good and not an outsider, they are revived. If you choose a living player, the Storyteller prompts you too choose again

file.png
#

"The process is simple. Attach the hydraulic confabulator to the modified chi matrix amplifier, add 20 CCs of pseudodorafine, keep his Z levels above 20%, tell me if you're actually reading this, and your husband will be fine. Now, all we need is a lightning strike."
The proofesor revives someone

  • they can make you alive again but only if youre good
  • this was too weak so i buffed it by making it fail on outisders
  • the alive player gets a fresh abikity
  • they can still act after being raised if they go after the prrofesor in the night order

How to Run

bro it's not that hard

Examples

  • The profeesor chooses a dead player who is claiming to be the Tea Lady. The player is actually the Lunatic. Nobody is resurrected.
  • The pprofessor resurrects the Grandmother, who learns a good player’s character. At dawn, all players learn the Grandmother player is alive, but not that the player is the Grandmother.
  • The drunk profesorr chooses to resurrect the Minstrel. theyre drunk tho so none of this matters

Jinxes:

  • shabaloth: only 1 jinxed character can be in play

JSON:

A new use of the fresh keyword?

#

What an overview

arctic olive
#

Yeah we have a new keyword might as well use it
