	* Feeling devious? Go up to a player you don't trust and tell them you're evil.

	* To help convince the group that you are good, make the argument that another Traveller in the game is evil. Whether they are actually good or evil doesn't really matter to you. What does matter is that if the group thinks that one of them is evil, they will believe that you are good, because the chance of there being 2 evil Travellers is small. A group that believes that you are the good Traveller will keep you alive long enough for you to use your ability, and will believe that the player whose life you save is good too. And you never know, maybe the Traveller that you are throwing under the bus actually is evil after all!		* To help convince the group that you are good, make the argument that another Traveller in the game is evil.

	* If the game is near to a close, and you died in place of a Minion, it may be best if you look as evil as possible to the group. The following day, if just 3 or 4 players are left alive, the good team will probably execute the player you saved, believing them to be the Demon. If you look evil, the good team thinks that the Minion is evil, and may not click that they are not in fact the Demon. This strategy may still be useful if 5, 6, or even 7 players are still alive. Convincing the group to execute a Minion (again) at least means that they are not executing the Demon, and good loses precious time and votes in the process.		* If the game is near to a close, and you died in place of a Minion, it may be best if you look as evil as possible to the group.

	* Do whatever you can to convince the rest of the group that the player ~~who's~~ life you saved is good. This may be an uphill struggle, depending on the number of other Travellers in play. Since the group will know for a fact that you are both the same alignment, they may be able to use this information to prove or disprove other player's alignments. Pay attention, and focus on discrediting key players. For example, If the {{Evil\|Imp}} just got executed but saved by you, and the {{Good\|Empath}} is sitting next to you and knows that one of their neighbours is evil, you will need to completely discredit either the {{Good\|Empath}}, or their other living neighbour... otherwise it's curtains for team evil.		* Do whatever you can to convince the rest of the group that the player whose life you saved is good.

	*		* If the Scapegoat is evil, they might die instead of an evil player dying. If the Scapegoat is good, they might die instead of a good player dying. When exactly this happens is up to the Storyteller. This can only happen due to an execution, not death by other means such as a Demon or Slayer.

			If a player of the same alignment as the Scapegoat would be executed, you may choose that the Scapegoat is executed instead. The Scapegoat '''dies'''.

			<div class="example" style="color: #5d2123; font-style: italic; font-family: GoudyOldStyle;">
			It is best to use the Scapegoat’s ability before the final day, because a Scapegoat that remains alive on the final day will almost certainly be exiled. You should always use an evil Scapegoat’s ability to prevent evil from losing the game.
