Overview
The Serial Killer has the ability to kill one player each night. The Serial Killer must eliminate the Town and other hostile factions in order to win.
Strategies
- Try to even out the balance of power between opposing factions, such as the Town, Mafia, Triad, Cult and etc., keeping them from gaining too much strength.
- A target being protected by a Doctor can still be killed if 2 attacks hit the target in the same night, targeting players you think other evil roles will try to kill should practically guarantee their deaths.
- Feigning a Vigilante can work when under suspicion by an Investigator.
- Pay special attention to the Roles List. If there is no confirmed Serial Killer or Neutral Killing, it may be beneficial to stay hidden until it's late into the game. This idea can also work if there is a confirmed Serial Killer and there are several Neutral Evil or Neutral Killing roles placed into the game. If there is a second Serial Killer, it is important to try and figure out who it is, since Serial Killers win with each other; no matter how many there are.
- Try to guess who other evil players will try to kill at night, and attack someone else. It is important to maximize the number of deaths in a night.
- Keep in mind that you have to balance the Town/Evil ratio.
Options
- Invulnerable at night - (Default: On)
- Kills roleblockers - (Default: Off)
- Wins ties over Arsonist - (Default: Off)
- Immune to detection - (Default: Off)
Notes
- Seen by a Sheriff as a Serial Killer unless the Sheriff is unable to detect Serial Killers in which case is seen as "not suspicious".
- Seen by an Investigator as owning knives like a Doctor.
- If a Serial Killer is one of the only 2 people left alive, they win (even if the other person is another Serial Killer), unless the settings are set where Arsonist wins over a Serial Killer is on, or if the other person is a Mass Murderer.
- If the option "Kills role-blockers" is enabled:
- If blocked by an Escort or Consort, the Escort or Consort will die but the Serial Killer will still miss their target
- The Serial Killer will murder any Jailor who imprisons him and decides to release them.
- In a rare case where the Serial Killer is jailed, not executed and also role-blocked by an Escort or Consort will result in no role-block kill. This is a Bug the developers have decided to leave in.
