			Each night, wake the Engineer. They either shake their head no or point at evil characters on the character sheet.

			If they shake their head no, nothing happens. Put the Engineer to sleep.

			If they point to a Demon or Minions on their character sheet, put them to sleep. Swap all appropriate character tokens with new character tokens. Wake each evil player that changed character, show the '''YOU ARE''' info token, then their new character token, then put them to sleep. '''The Engineer loses their ability'''—mark them with the '''NO ABILITY''' reminder and remove their night token from the night sheet.

			== Bluffing as the Engineer ==

			When bluffing as the Engineer, there are a few things you should keep in mind:

	* The easiest way to bluff as the Engineer is to say that you have created the character that you actually are. If you are the {{Evil\|Poisoner}} say that you have created a {{Evil\|Poisoner}}. If you are the {{Evil\|Shabaloth}} then say that you have created a {{Evil\|Shabaloth}}. You may need to do this on the first or second night, before the good team discusses and insists that you choose a particular character, as they may not choose the character you want them to choose!		* The easiest way to bluff as the Engineer is to say that you have created the character that you actually are.

Line 89:		Line 116:

	* Bluffing as the Engineer is highly dependent on which Minions and Demons are on the character sheet. Before bluffing as the Engineer, chat with your fellow evil players and find out what characters they are, and tell them that you are planning to bluff as the Engineer. Knowing which evil characters are really in play, and what those players intend to do, will greatly help smooth out the rough edges of your Engineer bluff.		* Bluffing as the Engineer is highly dependent on which Minions and Demons are on the character sheet.
