# Blood on the Clocktower Town Square

|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
It is supposed to aid storytellers and allow them to quickly set up and capture game states for their players.
|
|
|
|
[You can try it online!](https://bra1n.github.io/townsquare)
|
|
|
|

|
|
- Live Session for Storyteller / Players including live voting!
|
|
- Includes all 3 base editions and travelers
|
|
- Night sheet and reminder text for each character ability to help storytellers
|
|
- Many other customization options!
|
|
|
|
### Custom Characters
|
|
|
|
In order to add custom characters to your local Grimoire, you need to create a JSON definition for them,
|
|
similar to what is provided in the [`roles.json`](https://github.com/bra1n/townsquare/blob/main/src/roles.json) for the 3 base editions. Here's an example of how such a character
|
|
definition file might be written:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
[
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "acrobat",
|
|
"image": "https://github.com/bra1n/townsquare/blob/main/src/assets/icons/acrobat.png?raw=true",
|
|
"edition": "custom",
|
|
"firstNight": 0,
|
|
"firstNightReminder": "",
|
|
"otherNight": 49,
|
|
"otherNightReminder": "If either good living neighbor is drunk or poisoned, the Acrobat dies.",
|
|
"reminders": ["Die"],
|
|
"remindersGlobal": [],
|
|
"setup": false,
|
|
"name": "Acrobat",
|
|
"team": "outsider",
|
|
"ability": "Each night*, if either good living neighbor is drunk or poisoned, you die."
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "investigator"
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
"id": "imp"
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This definition JSON includes a custom character, the Acrobat, and 2 base game characters, the Investigator and the Imp.
|
|
For base game characters, it is sufficient to only provide the ID, similar to what you get from the Script Tool.
|
|
|
|
**Required properties:** `id`, `name`, `team`, `ability`
|
|
|
|
- **id**: the internal ID for this character, without spaces or special characters
|
|
- **image**: a URL to a PNG of the character token icon (should have a transparent background!)
|
|
- **edition**: the ID of the edition for this character. can be left blank or "custom"
|
|
- **firstNight** / **otherNight**: the position that this character acts on the first / other nights, compared to all
|
|
other characters
|
|
- **firstNightReminder** / **otherNightReminder**: reminder text for first / other nights
|
|
- **reminders**: reminder tokens, should be an empty array `[]` if none
|
|
- **remindersGlobal**: global reminder tokens that will always be available, no matter if the character is assigned to a player or not
|
|
- **setup**: whether this token affects setup (orange leaf), like the Drunk or Baron
|
|
- **name**: the displayed name of this character
|
|
- **team**: the team of the character, has to be one of `townsfolk`, `outsider`, `minion`, `demon` or `traveler`
|
|
- **ability**: the displayed ability text of the character
|
|
|
|
_Note:_ custom characters are currently not supported in live sessions and will not be synchronised to other players.
