== Summary ==
"If a player is mad as a fresh character during their nomination, they might not die if executed today."

The Ventriloquist rewards players for lying about who they are.
* Being "mad as a fresh character" means to claim to be a character that is different to a character that you have previously claimed to be.
* A player benefits from the Ventriloquist only if they are mad as a fresh character during the time that they are nominated.
* It doesn’t matter what their real character is. Players may be mad as a fake character then later mad as their real character, mad as their real character then later mad as a fake character, or mad as two fake * characters.
* If the player does not die, they learn this after the execution happens. They don’t learn whether it was due to the Ventriloquist or not.
* The Storyteller judges whether the player is mad or not, and might let them die even if they were convincingly mad.
* This can protect the Demon, but the Storyteller will not protect the Demon if that means that evil wins.
* A player is only protected from dying on the same day that they were mad as a fresh character.

== How to Run ==
When a player is nominated, before the vote is completed, if they are mad as a character that is different from a character they have been mad as previously, even if either character is their true character, and that player becomes '''about to die''', mark them with the '''MAD''' reminder.

If an execution occurs, and the executee is marked '''MAD''' due to the Ventriloquist, declare that they are executed and you may declare that they do not die.
