Loyal Servant of Arthur in Avalon: Rules & Strategy
Abilities at a glance
- Team and objective
- Good. The Servant, or Loyal Servant of Arthur, helps good complete three successful missions and survive any enabled assassination.
- Ability and information
- A Servant has no secret information about other roles at setup. Use team proposals, votes and mission results to identify trustworthy players.
- Important limits
- Can a Loyal Servant play Fail? No. Good players must play Success. A successful mission still does not prove everyone was good: most evil roles may also choose Success.
Practical situations
- When a mission fails, compare its members with earlier teams. Avoid claiming certainty about which player failed without enough evidence.
- If someone seems unusually well informed, consider whether publicly calling them Merlin would help evil. Discuss the team choice instead.

Strategic Tips:
- Active Observation: Pay close attention to the actions and behavior of other players. How someone votes or comments on team proposals can give vital clues.
- Communication: Communicate effectively with other players but do so cautiously to not disclose valuable information to 'Evil'. Engage in dialogues, ask questions, and express your doubts or confidence regarding certain players.
- Voting Strategy: Use your vote as a tool to express trust or distrust towards a team's composition. Voting against a team proposal can stimulate further discussion and help reveal suspicious patterns.
