MIME

...! ...? ...?! ...! ...!

ABILITY:

If you are 'mad' as a good character today, learn if it is in play the next night.

STORYTELLER NOTES:

Madness in this context should work similarly to the Pixie. While players may discern the player is in fact the Mime, so long as the Mime is continuing to adhere to madness, they should not be punished.

The Mime's performances lead them to learn what is in play, and what is not.

Playing as the Mime

Stick to the act! You will inevitably cause double claims and sow distrust in town, but your performances are for a greater good. You may consider dropping the act at some point to let players know what you are, but know that you won't receive any information that night. It's a small sacrifice, and potentially worth it if it means gaining the trust of your peers - but it may also attract the attention of the evil team.

Example

Chris is the Mime who decides to pretend to be the Monk. They claim that role the following day, and learn that night that the Monk is in play.

Bluffing as the Mime

Not only is bluffing as the Mime great for planting the seeds of distrust by creating double claims, but the "information" you share afterwards can even further harm town. Be judicious with what you claim isn't in play, as only so many roles cannot exist. Ensure the roles you claim not to exist are roles you want out of town, or are attached to players who have particular suspicions.

Example

Pauline is the Baron who is bluffing as the Mime. They pretend to be the Soldier, which they know to be in play, and claim later that the Soldier is not in play.
