Role Description

The Pestilence is a Secondary Role of the Plague Bearer once they finish infecting everyone. The Pestilence cannot be directly killed, and anyone who interacts with it will be parried (killed instead). The Pestilence can be voted off or indirectly killed (ex. Warlocked or Puppeted players). Depending on the host’s settings, other types of attacks may also be able to kill Pestilence, and Pestilence attacks may be unblockable.

Game Options

Note: These options are found under the Plague Bearer’s settings when that role is turned on
