You lurk in the shadows hearing all there is to hear. Your night ability silences people in the daytime. They cannot speak, nor whisper, and if put on the stand, they can only utter "I am blackmailed." They also cannot write in wills or death notes while blackmailed.

You win the game, as all mafia, with Survivors, Pirates, Guardian Angels, and Witches.

All town and Neutral Killing roles must be eliminated

The blackmailer knows who mafia visits, and can serve as a spy to gain the trust of the town. You can also mislead them with your info, but do so with caution, as defending a fellow mafia member too hard could spell disaster for you. Blackmail any who are suspicious of you and your crew


Spy is the easiest claim, but since you see all whispers, you could also claim invest and show the roles they whispered in your will.

One of the best strategies as blackmailer is to wait until late in the game to blackmail. If people do not know there is a blackmailer, they are more likely to whisper. If there is a confirmed townie, keep him alive and get the others to whisper roles to him. Town can easily be picked off one by one then, and any person who did not whisper can be called out as NK and lynched. This is one of the best strategies as blackmailer

This strategy is a little more risky. It involves blackmailing one person repeatedly for a few nights in a row, and then pointing out they've been kind of quiet all game. Rinse and repeat on your next target(s). You should not always be the one to point out that they have been quiet, lest someone suspect you've been silencing them. If the blackmailer has become common knowledge, it may be beneficial to keep quiet for a day and claim you were blackmailed the next day.
