About this Raddle

Today we honor the Cannibal, a character who waits for characters to die and then subsumes their powers. The Butler's powers aren't useful to take on, but the Cannibal doesn't get a choice; they just eat whatever corpse comes along. That's how the game goes sometimes.

Theme: Blood on the Clocktower

My favorite game is Blood on the Clocktower, a social deduction game that is endlessly replayable due to volume and variety of character options. Each character has a special ability, and most of them involve learning information about other players, or affecting other players' info (or existence) in some way. But a few special characters actually get to embody other characters, either by taking their power or pretending to be them for Reasons.
