Role Description
The Mastermind marks a player with their Kill button. After a delay, that player will gain text saying they’ve been Manipulated, and a countdown will begin. That player must kill another player before their countdown ends (by using either Pet or Kill), otherwise they suicide. The Mastermind cannot kill normally until they have hit the Manipulated Player Limit set by the host.
