The Syndicate

Sen (Chihiro Ogino) --- Sen is a 10-year old human girl who wandered into Yubaba’s domain as a result of her parents’ curiosity and greed. She signed a contract with Yubaba, protecting her, and giving her a job at Yubaba’s hotel. --- Because Sen signed a contract with Yubaba, she cannot be turned into an animal by her. However, Sen still yearns to save her parents who were turned into pigs, and return to the human world. Sen may search each night for the help of another player to achieve this. (Secrets)


Haku --- Haku is a dragon, and was once a river guardian in the human world, but he was forced to move on when the river was overrun by humans, and is now under the control of Yubaba. --- Haku begins the game under Yubaba’s control.

He’s a cranky but kindly old geezer, and his six lengthy arms help him get the job done. --- Kamaji may add a vote to any player during a lynch six times during the game. If the Susuwatari do not keep up their hard work, then Kamaji will lose one of his extra votes each time.

They have been put under a spell and given life, but must work to keep that life. --- Susuwatari must work hard each day to maintain their status as living beings. Together, they must combine to meet a daily post quota (dependent on their number and the game population), otherwise the spell will break, and impact Kamaji.


Chichiyaku --- Chichiyaku is the bath manager in Yubaba’s hotel, and to suit his position, he is a bit brusque. --- Chichiyaku may redirect another player’s night target on even nights. Chichiyaku will distribute a Bath Token on odd nights.

Zeniba --- Zeniba is Yubaba’s older and more powerful twin sister, she is actually more laidback and refined.

But her magic will continue to linger through the following day phase, cursing that player.

Yubaba enjoys gold, good business, and turning humans into animals. --- Each night, Yubaba may turn another player into an animal for the following day. Animals cannot post in the thread or vote in the lynch poll.


Boh --- Yubaba’s giant and powerful baby son. Boh just wants a friend to play with, but he also doesn’t want to play outside for fear of getting sick. --- If any player targets Boh with a night action, he plays with them instead, blocking them. (Secrets)
