Vegas Vendetta Character Assignment Guide

Assigning Characters

Assigning guests to characters they enjoy playing significantly enhances the success of the murder mystery party. When deciding who plays which character, consider the following:

  • Introversion vs. Extroversion: Assign characters based on the guest’s comfort level with being in the spotlight.

  • Guest Preferences: Some roles involve public speaking or making drinks. Assign roles accordingly.

  • Pre-existing Relationships: Ensure character pairings won’t create awkward dynamics for guests. Pair friends or acquaintances with comfortable character relationships to foster enjoyable interactions.

This guide outlines the personality traits of each character, their significant actions, and relationships to keep in mind. An extroversion level is provided for each character to help with pairing.
