User:Starman125/how to play priest-prophet in sleepy

okay so sleepy is a relatively underplayed mode, so not many people know how to play one of the key safe roles: the priest/prophet/blessed villager amalgam

important things to remember:
 * when you pray, you will be given a list of players who could possibly be the role you're praying for. you can pray twice to be given a single player who is guaranteed to be the role in question.
 * you have a 40% chance of revealing yourself to the role you pray for when you pray once. if this happens, you will not be able to pray again in the same night. otherwise, you have an 80% chance of revealing yourself if you pray a second time.

now onto the basics:

What roles to pray for

 * generally, on night 1, you want to pray for a villager.
 * "but why not wolves/safes?" you might ask. it's pretty simple: when you pray, there is a 40% chance you will reveal yourself to the role you pray for, which is very dangerous initially. although the wolves can't kill you themselves, there is a neutrally-aligned dullahan that is always out for your blood, and if the wolves happen to recruit that dullahan, then you're fucked sideways. on the flip-side, praying for safes is not necessary, since they'll claim anyways.
 * praying for a villager has the added boon of knowing a fullsafe, which allows you to narrow down the wolves.
 * only after the dullahan is dead should you start praying for wolf roles. with them out of the picture, the wolves have no way to kill you, since you're also a blessed villager. it doesn't hurt to claim in the channel, either, since the wolves will likely know who you are anyways.

Which safes to bless

 * this depends on your circumstances. if available, bless the vigilante. with dullahan dead, and you praying for wolf roles, a blessed vigilante is a powerful counter against wolves, as they will not die if the wolves attack them, and they can kill as many times as they want as long as they target a wolf.
 * if the vigilante is dead, bless the detective instead, as they are another role that has a chance of revealing themselves to the wolves, and can assist you in sniffing them out.
 * if they're both dead or otherwise unavailable, bless either the seer (if dullahan is dead) or a confirmed fullsafe.
