Eliza, the witch hunter question

[munkymuddface]

In the case of 'Knows too much' and 'Servant of Darkness', I dont think it matters. Even if dead, an elder who is revealed to have an evil secret will join the villain (it is assumed that they faked their death).

This could play to your favor if you are the only one that knows both secrets. You could reveal 'Knows too much' to kill the elder, and hope that other players ignore them since they are dead. Then, if a competing hero enters a showdown, you accuse the dead elder revealing the evil secret, causing them to join the villain, making the fight harder.
