Bootlegger for character QoL improvements

I've often seen the bootlegger used to give certain character Quality of Life improvements. I wanted to make a list of the most common ones I've seen for certain characters, and thought I'd post it to reddit. If you know of a bootlegger rule that I didn't mention below, please let me know the rule, I'm interested to know.

-Amnesiac: The Amnesiac always gains true info on their ability guesses, even if dead.

This rule is meant to circumvent early deaths and droisoning from preventing the amnesiac to even have a chance of knowing what they do. There is a reason this is a staple in all-amnesiac games, it makes amnesiac much more enjoyable without really changing the core of the character. Droisoning and death still mess with the secret amnesiac ability.

-Huntsman: They can use their ability twice per game.

When asking people what the worst townsfolk character is, Huntsman is the most common answer, and it's easy to see why: they add ambiguity to the outsider count, and if they end up adding the Damsel as an extra outsider, it doesn't do much more than re-adding a townsfolk that they took away to begin with, making them only about as useful as a washerwoman or a grandmother, and that is provided they DO find the Damsel. The problem is that the Damsel is trying to hide. Just compare Huntsman to Slayer. Both are looking for 1 specific target that is trying to stay hidden, but when the Slayer hits, it either wins the game, or severely cripples the evil team, meanwhile the Huntsman mainly takes away a losing condition. The slayer can use their ability while they're on the block, the Huntsman needs to wait till night and risks losing the ability through execution. The Huntsman makes the outsider count less consistent, the slayer doesn't. Anyways, putting that ramble behind us, this bootlegger rule is supposed to make the Huntsman a little more reliable for the good team.

-King: They also gain a role if the number of dead players equal the number of living players.

The King isn't exactly all that strong, since the Demon knows who they are. The potential to receive their first role a day early, gives them a slight boost without really changing anything about it's core idea.

-Poppy Grower: Evil players know the roles of the other people on their team.

Social deduction games similar to clocktower, tend to work because you have an uninformed majority fight against an informed minority. Poppy Grower flips that on it's head, and leaves barely anything for the evil team to work with. It also seems to overshadow the Magician, they share a very similar role (making it hard for the evil team to coordinate), but the poppygrower just does a much better job at it. This bootlegger rule still significantly disrupts the evil team, but at least leaves them something to work with. It also pairs in a pretty fun way with roles that create extra evil players.

-Professor: The people you bring back to life, continue registering as dead.

One of the biggest problems with Professor, is that it's almost required to be paired with a Shabaloth on the script. This bootlegger rule is meant to allow the Professor to fit on a few more scripts, rather than being used on scripts the Professor is already a part of. Without there being a potential of a Shabaloth revive, the Professor revive is just too powerful. Not only is it the equivalent to preventing a demon kill, it also hard confirms the professor and the person that got revived. By making the people the Professor revived register as dead, the role becomes much more bluffable. The Professor needs to take the word of the person they chose, that they actually got their ability again. People with passive abilities, will have to take the Professor's word for it, that they actually got revived, and everyone else will have to take the word of the professor and their target for it.

-Snake Charmer: The Snake Charmer gets to act before Demon and Minion information.

Without this bootlegger rule, having the Demon Snake Charmed night 1, just isn't fun for the Minions. They're immediately outed and are unlikely to have any action for the entire game. There just isn't much reason not to allow the Snake Charmer to go before evil info, it makes the game more enjoyable for pretty much everyone. Even the former Demon still comes away from the exchange with some interesting info. They basically became a townsfolk with the ability "you start knowing the Demon type". It's by far the most common bootlegger rule I've seen used in all my time playing clocktower.

-Butler: If they break the rule, something bad might happen to a member of their team.

The butler is only 1 of 2 roles that needs to self-regulate the actions they take. The storyteller can't really do anything if the Butler votes for someone they weren't allowed to vote for, because doing something like not counting their vote, would confirm their role. By adding a consequence for breaking the rule, the storyteller can do more than just giving them a slap on the wrist. It also puts the butler more in-line with other game mechanics, where it's up to the player to interact with the mechanic (like madness), or the storyteller is the one in control (like death). And if they have reason to believe they're droisoned, the player actually has the chance to take a risk. With the regular butler ability, even if you're confident you're droisonsed, you're still not allowed to vote, because you're be breaking the rules if you aren't.

-Golem: Change ability to "The first time you nominate, if the nominee is not the Demon, they are executed. The second time you nominate, your team loses."

It's kind of 2 bootlegger rules in 1. The "your team loses" ruling, has similar reasoning as the Butler: instead of relying on the player to self-enforce the restriction rule of their ability, add a consequence for breaking the rule. Since "you can't nominate" is less ambiguous and much easier to remember and adhere to than "you can't vote if person x doesn't vote", a harsher punishment for breaking the rule is arguably warranted. On top of this, the ability has been changed to execute the player the golem nominates instead of killing them, because, quite frankly, the Golem, as an outsider, is a better townsfolk than many townsfolk are. At least when their ability executes their target, it ends the day. Certain minion abilities, like Psychopath and Devil's Advocate, can prevent some evil players from dying, and abilities that end the game on execution have a chance to take effect.

Lunatic: The Demon learns who the Lunatic thinks are the Minions.

While I doubt this is a bootlegger rule I'd run myself, it's easy to see the purpose of the rule. Knowing who the Lunatic thinks are the minions, gives a lot more opportunity for the evil team to keep the Lunatic in the dark. Without this rule, most Lunatics tend to find out they're the Lunatic pretty early on, and at that point, they're not much of an outsider anymore.

-Vizier: If a player can turn evil due to their own ability, they count as evil for the purposes of your ability.

This prevents roles like Cult Leader, Politician or Goon, from intentionally force an evil win while they switch alignment at the end.

-Vigormortis: Doesn't change the outsider count

The Vigormortis' ability isn't all that much stronger than your average Demon ability, and replacing an outsider with a townsfolk character is quite a big penalty. Sure, it gives the evil team a bit of potential outsider claim space, but that rarely makes up for the extra townsfolk and missing outsider. It makes Vigormortis arguably the weakest Demon and as far as I can tell, the main reason it has the minus 1 outsider, is because the script it originates from, is all about figuring out which Demon is in-play, and they still wanted a [-1 outsider] demon, to have a bigger variety in outsider count, but keep Demons as the only form of outsider manipulation. On other scripts (especially solo-demon scripts) the [-1 outsider] is really rough for the evil team. Solo demon scripts are also the only time I've ever seen this bootlegger rule used.

That concludes the character-related bootlegger rules I know of. As a reminder, if you remember some bootlegger rules yourself that haven't been mentioned above, do let me know! I'd love to expand my list!
