Brainbox

Each night, you gain 1 not-in-play ability of each character type until there are no more types to gain. [-1 or +1 Outsider]

The Brainbox has many talents.

• Each night that the Brainbox is alive, they gain a new ability of a type that they haven’t gained yet, including a possible 2nd Minion ability or a Demon ability.
• If the Brainbox dies and has an ability that functions while dead, such as the Sweetheart, the Brainbox keeps this ability.
• If a new Brainbox is created, such as via a Scarlet Woman or a Barber, this new Brainbox has an ability from the Brainbox. This ability may be different to the previous Brainbox's ability.
• Since the Brainbox gains their first ability in the first night, their gained abilities do not modify the setup.
• The Brainbox knows which abilities they have.
• The Brainbox also wakes at night at the time that the relevant characters would normally wake.
• If a character, that the Brainbox has the ability of, comes into play, nothing changes. The Brainbox still has their ability. Use the Brainbox’s ? reminders in lieu or the blank reminder tokens in your Travellers & Fabled edition.

While setting up the game, before putting the character tokens in the bag, you may remove one Townsfolk and add one Outsider, remove one Outsider and add one Townsfolk, or do neither.

Each night, wake the Brainbox and show them a not-in-play character token. Place this token & the corresponding TOWNSFOLK / OUTSIDER / MINION / DEMON ABILITY reminder token in the left side of the Grimoire, ensuring not to repeat the same type as has been used before.

Treat the Brainbox player as if they had these character abilities, as well as any others they have.
