Pavlov's Dog

Faction

Third Faction (Pavlov's Dog Faction)

Win Conditions

Overview

The Pavlov's Dog faction wins when the Dog is alive and the number of faction members becomes equal to the number of Crewmates who do not have killing abilities.
Even if the Dog is dead, the game continues as long as the Owner is alive and has remaining nomination uses.

Details

The faction wins when all of the following conditions are met:
- Pavlov's Dog is alive.
- All factions capable of killing, other than the Pavlov faction, have been eliminated.
- The number of Crewmates (roles that are counted) is reduced to equal to or less than the number of members in your faction.
Notes
- If only the Owner is alive and they still have remaining nomination uses:
  - The Owner is counted as a faction capable of killing.
  - The Owner has not met their losing condition (losing the Dog), but they have not met the win condition either, so the game continues.
    - Examples:
      - In a 2-player situation with Owner (1 nomination use remaining) and 1 Crewmate, the game does not end.
        By turning the Crewmate into the Dog, the Pavlov's Dog faction wins.
      - In a 2-player situation with Owner (1 nomination use remaining) and 1 Impostor, the game does not end.
        If nomination self-destruct is off, turning the Impostor into the Dog makes the Pavlov's Dog faction win.
      - In a 4-player situation with Owner (1 nomination use remaining), 2 Impostors, and 1 Crewmate, the game does not end.
        If nomination self-destruct is on, the Owner must turn the Crewmate into the Dog; otherwise, they will self-destruct and the Impostors will win.
        If the Crewmate is turned into the Dog, the situation becomes 2 Pavlov faction members vs. 2 Impostor faction members.
        If nomination self-destruct is off and an Impostor is turned into the Dog, the situation becomes 2 Pavlov faction members, 1 Impostor faction member, and 1 Crewmate faction member.
- If only the Owner is alive and they have no nomination uses remaining:
  - The Pavlov faction is guaranteed to lose.
  - The Owner is counted as part of the Crewmate faction.
    - Examples:
      - In a 2-player situation with Owner (0 nomination uses remaining) and 1 Crewmate, the Crewmate faction wins.
      - In a 2-player situation with Owner (0 nomination uses remaining) and 1 Impostor, the Impostor faction wins.
