Canary
Each dusk, you may visit the Storyteller to learn something a Minion is mad about.
The Canary snitches on the evil team.
- “Dusk” refers to the time after the day’s execution but before players close their eyes. Storytellers should allow time after each execution to allow players claiming Canary to get information.
- The Canary doesn't act before the first night.
- Madness refers to a player’s attempts to convince the group at large that something is true. A Canary should reasonably be able to determine which players a given statement could apply to based on public conversation, not just based on private chats.
- If no Minion has been sufficiently mad about anything by the time the Canary asks for their information, you can tell the Canary this. (Or tell ‘em a NO or something – just make sure they know what they’re learning.)
Each day, after the execution phase and just before players close their eyes, if the Canary requests a private chat with you, take them away from the circle so you cannot be overheard. Whisper a statement that a Minion has been mad is true to the Canary.
This is also in the script notes, but "dusk" is shorthand for "just before dusk", if it's relevant for any other abilities that end at dusk, like the Sailor or Xaan, whose droisoning can affect a Canary going for info before it ends at dusk.
Violet is the Canary. They visit the Storyteller and learn “Rebecca is evil”. Bianca is the Wizard claiming Savant information that suggests Rebecca is evil, and has been pushing on her.
Two players die at night, and a good player asserts that the reason is because the Gossip was true, and the Demon is a Pukka, disagreeing with other players who build Shabaloth worlds. A Minion cottons onto this world, and begins pushing it with them. The Canary learns “The Gossip killed last night”.
The only things the Goblin has said publicly are that they are the Soldier and that Samira, the Mathematician, is good. A couple good players are also building worlds where Samira is good. The Canary learns “Samira is good”.
The Minions have been quiet in public, not pushing any worlds publicly nor expressing support beyond half-hearted votes. At dusk, the Canary learns that no Minion has been mad about anything.
