These visions can be wielded as a weapon - but all too often, people of my ilk find those weapons turned against me.
ABILITY:
Each night, the Demon chooses 1 alive player (not a Minion or Demon), unique to previous choices. Learn that player. If you are chosen, the Demon learns who you are.
STORYTELLER NOTES:
If the Seer is ever Drunk or poisoned, you are still obligated to wake the Demon to choose a player, however the Seer will learn arbitrary information. If the Seer is chosen while drunk or poisoned, the Demon does not learn who the Seer is.
The Seer forces the Demon to confirm who is good, but if ever found, knows they are on borrowed time.
Playing as the Seer
Stay alive! Your survival is your best chance to gain solid information about trustworthy players around the Grimoire. Knowing that the Demon is actively hunting for you means that arousing as little suspicion as possible is paramount. And, of course, if you ever learn your own name, you know that the Demon now knows precisely who you are - and will likely target you at the next possible opportunity. Call their bluff, reveal your information, and hope that town trusts you.
Example
Alice is the Seer. They learn three names before learning themselves on Night 4. They know they have been found, and die on Night 5.
Bluffing as the Seer
Simply put, if you are evil, it is highly likely that you know who the good players around the Grimoire are - use this to your advantage and curry their favour by signalling to them that the Demon chose them in the night, and that you learned their name - and sprinkle in some trusted evil players for good measure. Just remember that it’s difficult to bluff as the Seer in the long term given that the Demon should eventually find you.
Example
TJ is the Cerenovus bluffing as the Seer. They "confirm" their Demon, claim to learn their own name, and are then killed by the Vigor Mortis the night after.
Jinxes
Goon: If the Goon has not been chosen tonight, they become the alignment of the Seer, not the Demon; the Seer is drunk as a result.
Spy: The Spy can be chosen by the Demon at night.
Summoner: If a Summoner is in play and no Demon is in play, the Summoner chooses for the Seer’s ability instead.
Doppelganger: The Doppelganger can be chosen by the Demon at night.
Vortox: The Vortox can choose any player at night as part of the Seer's ability.
