Krampusnacht

Saturday, the fifth of December.
Doors at eight. Leaving is negotiable.

Black tie.
Dress like it's your last party.

The band plays until the last guest leaves.
The hosts decide who that is.

Regrets are not accepted. Only collected.

Written by , the house copywriter from Hell.
The guest list

Seven characters. Some of them came to collect.

Every card is a secret. Every guest is a suspect.

Ginger. Flirts with everyone. Means it for one.
Pierced Angel, the Seer. Blind to your face. Not to your lies.
Greta. Sings like an angel. Isn't one.
Frau Perchta. She takes your coat, and your soul.
Shaman, the Healer. Saves one soul a night. Asks no questions.
Uninvited. Nobody noticed. Nobody cares.
Krampus. He checks it twice. Then he collects.

How the night goes

Mingle. Accuse. Survive last call.

The deal

The Moderator deals every player a secret card. Two of you are the Hosts, and the Hosts are hungry. Everyone else wants to see the morning.

ii.

The night

At night, the Hosts quietly collect someone. The Shaman saves one soul. The Pierced Angel learns whether one guest is a Host.

iii.

Last call

By day, the room votes someone out. Catch the Hosts before last call, or become the evening's entertainment.
