Useful Notes

  • Whether an Inquisitor has a leader or not, they are always part of the Inquisition subfaction, thus their additional win condition is always the same as the inquisition: to kill all witchcraft users, no matter what alignment.
  • Rune holders are not witchcraft users - the rune only makes someone appear as a witchcraft user. The win condition only applies to the role of other players.
  • If an Inquisitor checks a Purifier or a Witch Hunter then their check is altered slightly and they are told that they are "a Fanatic".
