WELCOME TO

Agua Fria
AGUA FRIA: The dusty border town where people do business with money
and blood.

Notable residents include the MAYOR, the SHERIFF, the DEPUTY,

the SALOON OWNER, and the DOCTOR. all upstanding citizens in their
own, Agua Fria kind of way.

But there’s been some trouble as of late: a GANG OF OUTLAWS has

been raising havoc round these parts,
parts and rumour has it that their
notorious leader, TEXAS RED, has been hiding out in Agua Fria.

Thing is, nobody new has shown up here in a while, which leads folk to
think maybe Red’s been here the whole time. An Agua Fria local, a fine
citizen, with a DEADLY DOUBLE LIFE.

This’ll spell trouble for the town, no doubt. Texas Red is wanted all
over, and it’s only a matter of time before rangers, bounty hunters,
and the like descend upon this place
place, looking to make Texas Red...
Texas Dead.

Red needs to be found, before this all gets out of hand.

Good luck, and remember: in a town like this, fortune favours the mean,
the dirty, the cruel. In a town like this, you can’t trust anyone.

NOTE: If you’re playing with six players, there’s a new person in town:
The STRANGER, an out of town fella, who seems like he’s looking for
trouble.

ANY FURTHER
UNLESS YOU
ARE PLAYING AS

The Mayor
 THE MAYOR:
You’re the Mayor. Lord of this town.
The law, the ultimate and
unquestionable juridiction in this
otherwise lawless place.

At least, that’s how it should be. The

SALOON OWNER’s been shaking things up.
With the influence she has in this town,
and the money flowing through her
establishment, she’s become a threat to your
absolute power over this place. She and TEXAS RED are the two thorns in
your side.

The lawmen can deal with Texas Red. You’ve known the SHERIFF a long time,
and you trust him to get the job done, along with that new DEPUTY of his.

The Saloon Owner’s the issue though. If you could combine your assets:
your family’s fortune plus her saloon, you’d be unstoppable. After all, it’s
about time you found a new wife...
Failing that, a bullet in the back of the head would do the trick.

She’s married to the Deputy, so either way, he’ll be standing in your way.

The DOCTOR is an old friend of yours, and while he might disapprove, he

could be a valuable ally.

RUMOURS:
-The DEPUTY has been seen hanging around outside the Saloon late at
night, while the repulsive rabble of this town are getting drunk inside.
-.The SHERIFF is getting old. He’ll be looking for retirement funds soon.
-The DOCTOR’s surgical skills have improved significantly in recent weeks.

IF THERE’S SIX PLAYERS:

-This STRANGER is actually an Arizona Ranger, here hunting Texas Red.
You don’t need his kind. The local law can handle it.
As Mayor, he’ll want to talk. It’s up to you whether you accept his help,
or shun his presence.
 THE MAYOR:
OBJECTIVES:
-Ensure the capture of Texas Red
-Either kill the Saloon Owner or
convince her to marry you.
-Appoint a Vice-Mayor in case of your
death.

ACTIONS:
As lord of this town, you can deal out death and spare lives as you will.
But as the Mayor, everyone will know if you order someone to die.

To use an action, fill out the name of your target, tear the action from
this piece of paper, and put it in the BALLOT BOX.
As Mayor, it’s your responsibility to lead the Town Meetings, and read
out the actions from the Ballot Box.

If you’re playing online, there is no Ballot Box. Secretly inform the

MODERATOR of your intended target and action instead

This action will be activated at the next TOWN MEETING, at the end of this
round.

THE MAYOR EXECUTES: SAVE:

(Fill in your target’s name above the line)
The target is Marked for Death. They have
until the following Town Meeting to be
saved, otherwise they are killed.
The killer’s identity is known to all players.
(Fill in your target’s name above the line)
Save a player who is currently Marked
for Death. Only one Save is required to
cancel all ongoing attempts on their life.
The saviour’s identity remains secret.

Tear along the dotted lines and drop your actions in the bucket when you want to use them.
They will be revealed at the next Town Meeting.
