The skies are irregularly clear over the plains of Ravenswood Bluff, the countless
stars of the heavens complementing the illumination of the campfires. Hearty
stews and charred roasts are being indulged in along with raucous song and
dance.

However, the tribe's elders gather in their tents with unease. The soothsayers
read the entrails of today's hunt, and they foretold ill omens. Moreover, the
scouts have returned with more reports of disturbing sights and sounds from
within the woods. One or two drunken frights are to be expected, but over the
past few moons, such reports are becoming more common. And more similar to
each other.

One elder suggests that the spirits are angry, and that the medicine men and
warriors should prepare in haste for battle with manifestations of their
vengeance. Nervously, the suggestion accrues approval. A time of crisis is at
hand.

Ides of Blood is a homebrew set that is equal parts cerebral
puzzle solving and murderous mayhem. The introduction of two
brand new mechanics, ‘bloodied’ and the ‘clockhand’ each take
Demon hunting and life-and-death in new directions. Both
Good and Evil have unique tools with which to drastically swing
the game in their favor, even if their defeat seems otherwise
assured.
Expert. While not significantly more complicated than Bad
Moon Rising or Sects and Violets mechanically, Ides of Blood’s
nature as homebrew content lends itself better to players who
want something new, even if such novelty is unrefined.
When playing Ides of Blood...
Good Players will need to quickly become proficient at
remembering how many days the game has lasted, and who
died when, much like in Bad Moon Rising. Because knowing
where the clockhand started is knowing where the Demon is,
every piece of information the good team can gather on the
clockhand’s location eliminates demon suspects.
However, this unrivaled capacity to gather information on the
Demon’s location is challenged by the evil team's unique tools
to create disinformation on that axis, such as sending the
clockhand backwards in a Retrogradus game or skipping it over
the Urchin. Therefore, the good team will need to buy all the Examples
time they can to solve the puzzle, but perhaps gamble on
unsavory executions to avoid evil poaching the game with more Hand Man, as that is an Outsider in play.
than 3 players remaining.
Evil Players are their most deadly and most fragile in this set.
Minions such as the Secondhand and Effigy can kill two or more
players a game, but not without leaving very compromising
clues in the process. Meanwhile, characters such as the Viceroy
and Wicked can leave the good team completely in the dark
under ideal circumstances, but their disruption can be much
more easily traced backwards than in other sets.
With an immovable and constantly pursued Demon, evil must
pool their efforts more than ever into protecting them, no
matter the personal cost.

The Chieftain works with the Outsiders of the town to find the
clockhand.
• During the first night, the Chieftain is woken and learns
an Outsider character in play.
• The Chieftain does not learn the player playing that
Outsider, just that the Outsider is in play.
• Each night, except the first, the Chieftain learns either a
“yes” or a “no”, regarding whether the clockhand is an
Outsider.
• The Chieftain does not learn which player is the
clockhand, just whether or not the clockhand is an
Outsider.
• There is an extra Outsider in play.
It is the first night. The Chieftain is woken and shown the Right
It is the third night, and the Apiarist is the clockhand. Because
the clockhand is an Outsider, the Chieftain is woken and learns
a “yes”.
It is the second night and the clockhand skips over the Urchin
and Eclipse onto the Trapper. Because the clockhand isn’t an
Outsider, the Chieftain is woken and learns a “no”.
How to Run
While setting up the game, add one extra Outsider character
token and remove one Townsfolk character token.
During the first night, wake the Chieftain and show them the
character token of an Outsider in play. Then, put the Chieftain
to sleep.
Each night except the first, wake the Chieftain. If the clockhand
is an Outsider, nod your head yes. If the clockhand isn’t an
Outsider, shake your head no. Then, put the Chieftain to sleep.

The Blasphemer starts knowing a Townsfolk in play and can
thereafter risk their life to learn the whereabouts of the
clockhand.
• During the first night, the Blasphemer is woken and
shown a Townsfolk character in the game.
• On subsequent nights, the Blasphemer may invite death
by nodding yes. If they nod yes and aren't the
clockhand, nothing happens.
• If they nod yes and are, the Blasphemer dies. If they
shake no, nothing happens either way.
• The Blasphemer does not learn from the Storyteller
whether or not they are the clockhand.
Examples
It is the first night, and the Blasphemer is shown the Medicine
Man, as they are another Townsfolk in play.
The Diviner knows which Demon the town is fighting as well as
a player the Demon isn't.
• During the first night, the Diviner is woken and shown
the Demon's character.
• Additionally, the Diviner learns a player the clockhand
isn't on their first night.
Examples
It is the first night, and the Diviner is shown the Wendigo token
and Jeremy, as Jeremy isn't the clockhand and the Demon is a
Wendigo.
It is the third night, and the Philosopher transforms into the
Diviner. That night, they are shown the Leviathan token and the
Demon player, as the Demon is both a Leviathan and not the
clockhand.

It is the second night, and the Blasphemer is the clockhand. How to Run

you fool! And hurry up, the
beast could show up anytime!”
The Trapper lays a tripwire which they use to detect the
movements of the clockhand.
• During the first night, the Trapper is woken and chooses
a player.
• On subsequent nights, the Trapper learns either a “yes”
or a “no”, regarding whether the clockhand is either
that chosen player or themself. They do not learn which
player is the clockhand, just if either of them is.
• The Trapper cannot change their tripwire after their
first night.
Examples
During setup, the Trapper is woken and chooses David.
During the same game, on the second night, the Trapper is the
clockhand. Because either David or the Trapper is the
clockhand, the Trapper is woken and learns a “yes”.
During the same game, on the third night, Andrew is the
clockhand. Because neither David nor the Trapper is the
clockhand, the Trapper is woken and learns a “no”.
How to Run
During the first night, wake the Trapper. They point to a player
that isn’t themself. (If the Trapper points at themself, shake
your head no and prompt them to point at another player.) Put
the “tripwire” reminder on the chosen player, then put the
Trapper to sleep.
Each night except the first, wake the Trapper. If the clockhand is
either the player with the “tripwire” reminder or the Trapper,
nod your head yes. If not, shake your head no. Then, put the
Trapper to sleep.

“In all my years of watching the
stones, I have only heard them
sing like this once before.”
The Shaman learns if the clockhand is one of the dead.
• Each night, the Shaman learns either a “yes” or a “no”,
regarding whether the clockhand is dead.
• Because the Shaman acts after all killing characters each
night, the Shaman's information refers to the players
that are dead when dawn breaks and all players open
their eyes.
• The Shaman does not learn which player is the
clockhand, just whether or not the clockhand is dead.
Examples
During the first day, Devin is executed. That night, the Demon
kills Keith. Since neither is the clockhand, the Shaman wakes
and learns a "no”.
Midway through the game, at night, five players are dead, one
of whom is the clockhand. The Shaman wakes and learns a
“yes”.
How to Run
Each night except the first, wake the Shaman. If the clockhand is
alive, shake your head no. If the clockhand is dead, nod your
head yes. Then, put the Shaman to sleep.
 “Look there. Just a few degrees
eastward. You see it? That
constellation is most always
invisible except for on such a
clear night as this.”
The Stargazer slowly builds a star chart of alignments which
they can use to map the Demon's location.
• Each night except the first, the Stargazer is shown the
clockhand's alignment.
• The Stargazer is not shown the clockhand player when
they learn their alignment, they are just told what that
alignment is.
Examples
During the second night, the clockhand marker moves from the
Sasquatch to the Shaman. The Stargazer is woken and learns
“Good”.
During the third night, the clockhand moves from the Shaman
to the Wicked. The Stargazer is woken and, because the Wicked Secondhand.
is now Evil, they learn “Evil”.
During the fifth night, the clockhand moves from the Apiarist,
skips the Urchin, and lands on the Viceroy. The Stargazer is
woken and learns “Evil”.
How to Run
Each night except the first, wake the Stargazer. If the clockhand Soothsayer or an Evil player, then wake the Soothsayer. They
is Good, give them a thumbs up. If the clockhand is evil, give
them a thumbs down. Then, put the Stargazer to sleep.

“A grim fortune befalls you. I can

Carry a sprig of sage in your
pocket and don't ever lose it.
You will need it in time.”
The Soothsayer learns the characters of anyone they wish, but
their information can be corrupted by the ill will of the heavens.
• Each night except the first, the Soothsayer chooses a
player and learns their character.
• While the clockhand is Evil or themself, the Soothsayer
is drunk, and can therefore be shown incorrect
characters.
Examples
It is the third night, and the clockhand is Good. The Soothsayer
chooses Randy, and correctly learns he is the Wendigo.
It is the fourth night, and the clockhand is Evil. The Soothsayer
chooses the dead Shaman and is incorrectly told they are the
It is the second night, and the Soothsayer is the clockhand. The
Soothsayer chooses themself, and is correctly told they are the
Soothsayer, even though they are drunk.
How to Run
Each night except the first, check the clockhand to see if it is the
point at a player. Show them the chosen player’s character, or
perhaps a false character if they are drunk. Then, put the
Soothsayer to sleep.
As with all drunkenness or poisoning, you are free to give
true information to the Soothsayer even if the clockhand is
evil or themself. However, this can easily tilt the game far
into the Good team’s favor, so use your best judgement.
Also, don’t forget that you can confuse a player's character
even if you disclose their alignment, such as showing the
Soothsayer the Effigy when their target is really the Viceroy,
or showing the Wicked when their target is really the Stalker.

The Bloodletter learns who can and can't be trusted each night, The Stalker stakes out a nearby player to see if they are a
but their methods are rapidly draining the town's life pool.
• Each night except the first, the Bloodletter may choose
a player and learn their alignment.
• If they do this, the Storyteller is permitted to bloody a
player, possibly resulting in their death. The Storyteller
does not have to do this.
• The Storyteller also bloodies a townsfolk player at the
start of the game.
• The Bloodletter cannot bloody anyone if they don’t
actually have their ability, such as if they are drunk.
Examples
It is the first night, and the Bloodletter is woken and chooses
Andrew, learning they are Good. Andrew is bloodied.
It is the third night, and the Bloodletter is woken and chooses
David, who is dead. They learn David is Evil. Sky, who is alive
and already bloodied, is bloodied again, dying.
Minion.
• The Stalker does not learn what type of Minion their
clockwise living neighbor is, just if they are a Minion.
• The Stalker does not detect dead players. So, if the
Stalker’s clockwise neighbor is dead, the information
refers not to the dead player, but to the closest alive
player in that direction.
• The Stalker acts after all killing characters, so if the
Demon kills the Stalker’s alive clockwise neighbor, the
Stalker does not learn about the now-dead player.
• Each night, the Stalker learns either a “yes” or a “no”.
Examples
It is the first night, and the Stalker’s clockwise living neighbor is
the Retrogradus. The Stalker is woken and learns “no”.
It is the third night, and the Stalker’s clockwise living neighbor is
the Eclipse. The Stalker is woken and learns “yes”.

It is the fourth night, and the Bloodletter is woken, but they
shake their head. Nothing happens.
How to Run
During setup, bloody a Townsfolk of your choosing.
How to Run
Each night, wake the Stalker. If the Stalker’s clockwise living
neighbor is a Minion, nod your head yes. If not, shake your head
no. Then, put the Stalker to sleep.

Each night except the first, wake the Bloodletter. They point at a
player or shake their head no. If they chose a good player, give
them a thumbs up. If they chose an evil player, give them a
thumbs down. Put the Bloodletter to sleep. If the Bloodletter
chose a player, you may then bloody a player if you wish.

The Bloodletter offers a great deal of flexibility to the

Storyteller on a game balance front, but in general, you
should be bloodying to kill Townsfolk and as fast as possible.
Avoid killing the Bloodletter with their own ability without
good reason, as doing so gives a lot of information.

The bleeding is meant to be a drawback, and even ending the

game if the Bloodletter foolishly bleeds is not out of the
question. It’s up to you.

The Ambusher starts with a lead on a Minion and can lure the
evil team into an ambush if they are attacked.
• During the first night, the Ambusher is woken and
shown a Minion character in the game.
• The Ambusher is woken on the night that they die and
shown a Minion player.
• The Minion player the Ambusher is shown doesn't need
to be the same as the character they were shown

The Warrior can survive a deadly attack and learn from the

• Each night except the first, the Warrior learns either a

• The Warrior is triaged at night, but not during the day.

you’ll feel better by morning.”
The Medicine Man can triage two players at night, mitigating
the harms of whatever may happen to them.
• Each night except the first, the Medicine Man chooses
any two players that are not themself.
Examples
It is the third night, and the Medicine Man chooses Jake and
Patrick. Patrick isn’t the clockhand and is chosen by the
Secondhand, therefore he is protected from being bloodied.
It is the second night, and the Medicine Man chooses the Effigy
and a bloodied Soothsayer. The Effigy attacks the Soothsayer
and chooses suicide. The Soothsayer still dies to the Effigy’s
ability (as they were already bloodied), but the Effigy survives
but is bloodied.
How to Run
Each night except the first, wake the Medicine Man. The
Medicine Man points at any two players except themself. (If the
Medicine Man points at themself, shake your head no and
prompt them to point at another player.) Put the Medicine Man
to sleep. Then, put the Medicine Man's "Triaged" reminders by
chosen player’s character tokens.
If a player with a “Triaged” reminder would be bloodied, don’t
bloody them. If they would die, bloody them instead. If they
would die while already bloodied, they die.

“Come! Everyone! Let us join
together in merriment and
glee! Spirits willing, we’ll all be
drunk till morn!”
The Reveler can sing a lovely tune that inspires the Demon to
dance and drink… as well as another player.
• The Reveler can choose to use their ability at any time
during the day and must declare to everyone when
they’re using it. They do not actually have to sing a
song, but they are welcome to :D
• After the song is concluded, the Demon and another
townsfolk are instantly made drunk until tomorrow
morning.
• A Reveler that uses their ability while poisoned or drunk
may not use it again.
Examples
It is the first day and the Reveler sings. While the Warrior is
falsely told they are bloodied tonight, the player the
Retrogradus chooses doesn’t die, and the Townsfolk clockhand
isn’t poisoned.
It is the third day and the Reveler sings but is then executed.
The two players the Reveler was making drunk are no longer
drunk.
The Eclipse is bluffing as the Reveler. They declare publicly
during the day that they use their Reveler ability and sing a
beautiful song. The Storyteller plays along, but nothing
happens.
How to Run
During the day, the Reveler can declare that they wish to use
their ability. Put the Reveler's "used" reminder by the Reveler
token. Then place a “drunk” reminder by the Demon’s character
token and another player of your choosing until tomorrow day.
The Reveler’s second drunk player is meant to be a drawback
and should, under normal circumstances, make a valuable
Townsfolk drunk for the song’s duration.

The Wicked may turn evil in time but doesn’t know when or if
that time will come.
• If the clockhand moves onto the Wicked, they turn Evil
that night.
• The Wicked learns when their alignment changes, like
all characters.
• The Wicked doesn’t learn their evil teammates in the
event of their turning.
• The Wicked keeps their alignment even if they die, but
doesn’t keep their power, like all characters.
Examples
It is the third night. After dusk, when the clockhand marker
moves, it lands on the Wicked, turning them Evil.
It is the second night. After dusk, when the clockhand marker
moves, it lands on the Wicked, but the Wicked is drunkened by
the Reveler, so nothing happens.
It is the fourth day. The Wicked was earlier turned Evil and is
executed. The Wicked keeps their Evil alignment.
How to Run
If, after moving the clockhand marker, the Wicked is the
clockhand, place the “Evil” reminder token on the Wicked’s
character token.
Then, wake the Wicked and show them the “You are” token.
Give them a thumbs down (This shows they are now Evil). Then,

The Urchin starts injured and may be skipped by the clockhand,
making counting its paces more difficult for the town.
• If the clockhand marker moves onto the Urchin, the
Demon is woken and may nod their head “yes” to make
the clockhand move again, even if the Urchin is dead.
• The Urchin starts bloodied.
Examples
It is the second night. The Urchin becomes the clockhand and
the Demon is woken. The Demon nods their head “yes”, so the
clockhand moves again onto the Urchin’s clockwise neighbor:
the Chieftain.
It is the third night and the Urchin is dead. The Urchin becomes
the clockhand and the Demon is woken. The Demon shakes
their head “no”, so the clockhand stays on the Urchin.
How to Run
During setup, bloody the Urchin.
If, after moving the clockhand marker, the Urchin is the
clockhand, immediately wake the Demon. Show them the
“Urchin” character token. They nod or shake their head. If they
nodded their head, move the clockhand marker again. If they
shook their head, do nothing. Then, put the Demon to sleep.

The Right Hand Man’s drunkenness is meant to be a

In general, you shouldn’t kill evil players with bees, but this is
not absolute. However, never kill the Demon with bees, as
the power is meant as a drawback for the good team.
If the Apiarist is relying on their bees to prove their role, you
can always choose to bloody three players to keep the power
ambiguous, even if there are no other bloodying effects in
the game.

Feel free to end the game with bees if you think such an evil
victory is deserved. However, killing three bloodied players in
one night is probably overkill.

"They know not the danger of
the second twilight. Keep to it
that they do not learn until it is
too late."
The Eclipse changes the number of Outsiders in play and may
skip the clockhand past themselves or a Townsfolk.
• During the first night, the Eclipse is woken and shown a
Townsfolk player that is their target for the rest of the
game.
• If the clockhand marker moves onto the Eclipse or their
target, the Eclipse is woken and may nod their head
“yes” to make the clockhand move again, even if they
are dead.
• The Eclipse is not told whether it is they or their target
that is the clockhand when they are woken up.
• There is an extra Outsider in play.
Examples
It is the second night. The Eclipse becomes the anti-clockhand
and they are woken. The Eclipse nods their head “yes”, so the
anti-clockhand marker moves again counterclockwise onto the
Right Hand Man.
It is the third night and the Eclipse is dead. After dusk, when the
clockhand marker would move onto the Eclipse’s target, the

the Eclipse to sleep.

Your so-called friends are plotting
to betray you. You know it in
your heart as well as I. I would
not risk telling you all this if I
didn’t care for your safety! Our
only hope lies in a pre-emptive
strike before it’s too late…”
The Viceroy knows who everyone is and may poison their
clockwise living Townsfolk neighbor each night.
• Each night, the Viceroy is shown the Grimoire and may
poison their clockwise living townsfolk neighbor for the
night and the next day.
• Remember to keep your Grimoire tidy and show it to
the Viceroy in the correct orientation, so the Viceroy
can easily see who is who.
• The Viceroy does not poison dead players. So, if the
Viceroy’s clockwise Townsfolk neighbor is dead, the
poison does not apply to the dead Townsfolk, but to the
closest alive Townsfolk in that direction.
Examples
At the start of the game, the Viceroy’s clockwise living
Townsfolk neighbor is the Warrior, and they can poison them
accordingly. After the Warrior dies, the Viceroy’s clockwise
living Townsfolk neighbor becomes the Reveler, so then the
Reveler can be poisoned.
It is the third night, and the Viceroy is poisoning the Ambusher.
The Ambusher was shown the Viceroy at the start of the game.
The Ambusher dies and so is woken and shown Harry, who is
not the Viceroy, instead of Earl, who is, because he is being
poisoned by the Viceroy.
Each night, wake the Viceroy and show them the Grimoire.
Then, they nod or shake their head. If they nodded their head,
put the “poisoned” reminder token on the Viceroy’s clockwise
night. If they shook their head, do nothing. Then put the Viceroy
to sleep.
 “Do not fear the lick of flame my
child, for it is only through
sacrifice that we may witness
our bright future.”
The Effigy can kill another player and may even sacrifice
themselves in the process.
• Once per game at night, but not the first, the Effigy can
kill a player.
• If, after attacking that player, there are 5 or more
players alive total the Effigy may choose to die
themselves as well if they wish.
Examples
For the first three nights the Effigy wakes but chooses not to
act. During the fourth night, they choose to kill the Wicked but
not themself, resulting in the Wicked’s death.
It is the fifth night, and there are 5 living players. The Bogman
kills one player. The Effigy kills another, but because there are
now only 3 living players, they cannot die themself.
How to Run
Each night except the first, wake the Effigy. They either shake
their head no or point at any player. If the Effigy pointed at a
player, the chosen player dies and the Effigy nods or shakes
their head. If they nodded their head, they die as well if 5 or
more players are alive. Put the Effigy’s “used” reminder by the
Effigy token after they choose. Then put the Effigy to sleep.

“Come my pet! We have havoc
to wreak, and I will need you at
my side!"
The Secondhand acts like a minor Demon, slowly but surely
chipping away at the lifepool of the Town.
• Each night except the first, the Secondhand chooses a
player to attack.
• If the chosen player is the clockhand, they die.
• If the chosen player isn’t the clockhand, they are
bloodied.
Examples
It is the third night. The Bogman chooses to kill Todd, while the
Secondhand chooses the clockhand, killing them as well.
It is the second night. The Wendigo chooses to bloody the
Bloodletter, Reveler and Eclipse. The Secondhand chooses the
Reveler, who isn’t the clockhand, but the Reveler still dies as
they were bloodied while bloodied.
How to Run
Each night except the first, wake the Secondhand. The
Secondhand points at any player. If that player is the clockhand,
they die. If not, they are bloodied. If a bloodied player is
bloodied again, they die. Then put the Secondhand to sleep.

The Retrogradus turns the rules of the clockhand on their head,
as well as poisons any Townsfolk clockhands.
• If the anti-clockhand is a Townsfolk, they are poisoned
by the Retrogradus as long as they are the clockhand.
• The clockhand is replaced by the anti-clockhand during
setup. Whether the Retrogradus is dead, drunk, or
poisoned does not change the anti-clockhand into the
clockhand.
• However, if the Retrogradus is drunk or poisoned,
Townsfolk clockhands are no longer poisoned.
Examples
The clockhand moves onto the Blasphemer, however since the
Retrogradus is poisoning the Blasphemer, they do not die to
their ability.
The clockhand moves onto the Wicked, however since the
Retrogradus only poisons Townsfolk, the Wicked’s ability still
activates.
The Bogman poisons a Townsfolk throughout the game and
knows who that Townsfolk is.
• During the first night, the Bogman is woken and shown
the Townsfolk they are poisoning.
Examples
It is the first night and the Bogman is shown Francis, the
Townsfolk player they are poisoning.
It is later that same game, and the Reveler has sung their song.
Francis is no longer poisoned during the duration of the song,
but resumes being poisoned when the Bogman’s drunkenness
ends.
How to Run
During setup, choose a Townsfolk for the Bogman to poison.
On the first night, wake the Bogman. Point to the player they
are poisoning. Then, put the Bogman to sleep.

How to Run Each night except the first, wake the Bogman. They point at a

“clockhand” token.

When you would move the anti-clockhand marker, instead of

moving it one player clockwise like normal, move the anti-
clockhand one player counterclockwise.

Place the Retrogradus’ “Poisoned Townsfolk” reminder with the

anti-clockhand to remember who/if the Retrogradus is
poisoning each day.

Each night except the first, wake the Retrogradus. They point at
any player. That player dies. Then, put the Retrogradus to sleep.

“RWWWWAAAAA
AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHA
AAAAAAHHHHHH!”
The Sasquatch can go on a rampage once per game, killing
twice in one night.
• Once per game, the Sasquatch can choose a player to
die twice instead of once.
• A Sasquatch that uses their rampage while poisoned or
drunk may not use it again.
• The Sasquatch can choose the same player twice in one
night with their rampage, such as to overcome a triage.
Examples
It is the third night. The Sasquatch rampages and chooses the
Right Hand Man and the Apiarist to die.
It is the second night. The Sasquatch rampages and chooses the How to Run
Warrior twice to die. They die even though they are triaged. During setup, bloody all Minions.
It is the fourth night. The Sasquatch rampages but is drunk due
to the Reveler’s song. The Sasquatch doesn’t kill anyone, but
they still cannot rampage again this game.
How to Run
Each night except the first, wake the Sasquatch. They point to
any player. If the Sasquatch doesn’t have a “used” reminder
token, they can choose twice. All chosen players die. If the
Sasquatch chose twice, place the “used” reminder token on the
Sasquatch’s character token. Then, put the Sasquatch to sleep.

"There is nothing more divine then

unrivaled ecstasy."
The Wendigo brings their Minions to the game already bloodied
and can choose to bloody three people instead of killing one.
• The Wendigo kills 1 player per night, like other Demons,
however, the Wendigo may also choose to bloody three
different players instead.
• Every Minion starts the game bloodied.
Examples
On the second night, the Wendigo kills one player. On the third
night, the Wendigo chooses to bloody three players. On the
fourth night, the Wendigo bloodies those three players again,
killing them.
Each night except the first, wake the Wendigo. They point to
one or three players. If they pointed to one, that player dies. If
they pointed to three, those three players are bloodied. Then,
put the Wendigo to sleep.
