The Sorcerer is a player on their own team. They choose a player to attempt to dominate each night. If a Villager is chosen, nothing happens. If a Werewolf is chosen, that player joins the Sorcerer’s team, but does not wake with the Sorcerer.
Each night, The Sorcerer chooses a target for the dominated Werewolf. That player is killed. The Dominated Werewolf still wakes with the other Werewolves, but is not allowed to reveal his dominated status. Dominated Werewolves die if the Sorcerer is killed.
The Sorcerer wins if they have dominated a Werewolf and achieved parity with the members of his team and any remaining players. The Werewolves cannot win while the Sorcerer is still alive.
The balance for the Sorcerer is against both the Villagers and the Werewolves. Forming a third team makes the death rate increase.
