About This Project
Eidolon is an unofficial online tool for facilitating Blood on the Clocktower games. It helps with setup, voting, and adjacent table-flow tasks when playing through Discord or other digital channels.
Eidolon (noun): an unsubstantial image; a phantom; an apparition; an idealized image. The name reflects the project goal: a lightweight manifestation of live table tooling that preserves the spirit and flow of in-person play.
This project is free and open source and can be found on GitHub. It is not affiliated with The Pandemonium Institute. "Blood on the Clocktower" is a trademark of Steven Medway and The Pandemonium Institute.
