The Necronomicon is an ability enhancer that is given to members of the Coven at the start of Night 3. The Coven Leader will always receive the Necronomicon first if there is a Coven Leader in the game. Other members of the Coven will receive it if the Coven Leader dies. The order of transition is randomized after the Coven Leader is killed (there is no exact order, however, it may follow onto the Necromancer after. This has been tested). The purpose of the Necronomicon is to give the one holding it the ability to kill every night, similar to the Mafia’s system. Some Necronomicon kills are done instead of a normal action, for example the Necromancer.
The member of the Coven holding the Necronomicon will gain Detection Immunity from the Sheriff, meaning they will appear as innocent instead of suspicious.
The Necronomicon as a pet.
