Pavlov’s Dog

Faction

Third faction (Pavlov’s Dog faction)

Win Conditions

Overview

Wins when the Dog is alive and the number of members in the faction becomes equal to the number of Crewmates who do not have killing abilities.
Even if the Dog is dead, the match continues as long as the Owner is alive and has remaining nominations.

Details

Wins when all of the following conditions are met:
- Pavlov’s Dog is alive.
- All kill-capable factions other than the Pavlov faction have been eliminated.
- The number of Crewmates (roles that count as Crewmates) is reduced to no more than the number of members in your own faction.
Notes
- If only the Owner is alive and they still have remaining nominations:
  - The Owner counts as part of a kill-capable faction.
  - Since the Owner does not meet their defeat condition (losing the Dog), but also does not meet the win condition, the game continues.
    - Examples:
      - In a 2-player situation with Owner (1 nomination 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 remaining) and 1 Impostor, the game does not end.
        If nomination self-destruction is off, turning the Impostor into the Dog makes the Pavlov’s Dog faction win.
      - In a 4-player situation with Owner (1 nomination remaining), 2 Impostors, and 1 Crewmate, the game does not end.
        If nomination self-destruction is on, the Owner will self-destruct unless they turn the Crewmate into the Dog, resulting in an Impostor win.
        If the Owner turns the Crewmate into the Dog, the situation becomes 2 Pavlov faction members vs. 2 Impostor faction members.
        If nomination self-destruction is off and the Owner turns an Impostor 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 remaining nominations:
  - The Pavlov faction is guaranteed to lose.
  - The Owner counts as part of the Crewmate faction.
    - Examples:
      - In a 2-player situation with Owner (0 nominations remaining) and 1 Crewmate, the Crewmate faction wins.
      - In a 2-player situation with Owner (0 nominations remaining) and 1 Impostor, the Impostor faction wins.
