Hmm. Well, I'm sitting on a fair bit of information - not terribly useful information, mind you - but I think I'd better come forward with this before I get killed off too, hehe.
So! My role is that of a
Universal Backup. Whenever an innocent dies, I can take on their mantle and gain their powers (though doing so erases my current powers, and I don't know beforehand what the new powers will be). Very meta! After Superbird died, I gained his powers and found out that he's a
Medium / Restless Spirit. As a result, I can communicate with all dead players!
Without further ado, here's all the information I've collected from beyond the grave:
- JackPK: As you recall, he was a self-aligned role. He claims that he had a killing power, and that he was "just as much against the mafia as town is". He claims that he targeted DarkAura on N0, but something protected her. He really wants someone to revive him, hehe.
- Superbird: He was a Medium / Restless Spirit, meaning he could communicate with dead players, and retains the ability to cast votes while dead. He says he can still answer yes/no questions via voting (so you could tell him something like "vote X for yes, vote Y for no" like we did before). The reason he was so insistent on Jack being a serial killer earlier was that he already knew Jack had a killing power, he just didn't want to reveal that yet.
- VM: Not being cooperative for obvious reasons.
- DarkAura: She claims to have been an inspector with a one-shot kill. Apparently, she inspected VM on N0 (he was mafia), then inspected me on N1 (I am innocent), then killed VM on N2. She says she didn't use the kill straight away because she wanted to make sure she wasn't a paranoid role first.
Alright. Most of this information is honestly not that useful. However, we know that we've lost one inspector, so unless we have a second one, we shouldn't hold out for anyone else to provide inspection results (I chose not to copy DarkAura's powers, so it's too late for that). We also know that someone protected DarkAura on N0, so we definitely have a doctor or similar protective role in our midst. That's all, really.
That doesn't really get us anywhere, I suppose. But here's what I'm thinking: At the moment, the mafia is in a bit of a tricky situation. If they target me, I get the benefit of Superbird's Restless Spirit role, so I too can keep voting from beyond the grave; that means the mafia gets little benefit from killing me. But if they target someone else, and that person has a useful role, I can use my backup ability to keep that role in the game for a bit longer. So either way, they can't
quite get rid of anyone important tonight, hehe!
Furthermore, Phoenix of the Night is implying that he has a one-shot power that protects all players from death, so I would expect no death tonight anyway (unless Phoenix is lying or VM poisoned someone).
Therefore, now is a good time for anyone with a valuable but vulnerable role to claim! If the mafia picks you off, I can still communicate with you, or even inherit your power; and if Phoenix is saying what I think he's saying, then we're safe for at least one more night anyway. In fact, maybe it would be a good time to go for a massclaim now? That way, I'll have much more information about when to use my backup power and when not to, and I feel like right now is a reasonably safe time to do so.
In any case: now you know what I know. Help me figure out a way to take advantage of this situation! Hehehe!
