Doctor

The roles

Protects one player each night from the second, never the same one two nights running.

How it works

  1. 1

    Each night, pick who to protect, then name a suspect like everyone else.

  2. 2

    Watch the town's rumour at dawn: the killers often go for the most trusted voices.

What it does

From the second night, you choose one player to protect. If the killers pick them, the night passes without a murder, and only the dawn says so.

You can't protect the same player two nights running, and you can save yourself once a game.

Both are host rules.
