Comedian
Once per day, if you agree, a player "about to die" makes you laugh. If the Storyteller thinks they did, you're executed.
The Comedian laughs to death.
- If a player gets the current majority of votes and is "about to die", they may attempt to make the Comedian laugh. If succesful, as deemed by the Storyteller, the Comedian is immediately executed instead.
- The Comedian must agree for the player to attempt to make them laugh.
- If a player fails to make the Comedian laugh, the ability is used for the day and cannot be attempted by another player today.
During the nomination phase, when a player is "about to die", they may ask the Comedian if they can use the ability. Give them time to make the Comedian laugh. If you think this was succesful, announce that the Comedian was executed. If not, add the ONCE reminder to the Grimoire.
The Comedian is a lighthearted and silly character. Make sure all players know your expectations and try not to take it too seriously.
It is up to you whether the player actually made the Comedian laugh—if you feel it was forced, you may choose not to execute. Talk to your players on what you think counts (ex. smiling).
"Heard that one before—that one too. Won't anyone be original these days?"
