Step 4 · The Roundtable and Firepit

What happens when someone wants one more vote?

How the Roundtable and Firepit put different kinds of pressure on the group.

At the Roundtable, everyone gets time to make their case before voting opens. Once you cast your vote, it locks. In Rounds 1 to 3, the group learns the banished player’s allegiance. A Loyal guest may be secretly recruited as a Betrayer after a banishment.

After the fourth vote, the final three always go to the Firepit. They know who was banished and have to wait until The Reveal to learn their allegiance. The finalists can end the game or banish again. One vote to banish opens a new vote and each finalist’s choice appears in Activity.

I want a close Firepit to come down to something you remember from earlier in the match. Maybe someone defended the wrong player, or maybe you’ve spent the whole game trusting someone because they trusted you first.
