Roles

This page lists all roles that appear in the game.

Village team roles
The village team wins when they lynch or otherwise kill every player with a wolf role. Other members of the wolf team do not count towards determining this win condition.

Villager
Villagers do not have any inherent special powers, and must work together to uncover and lynch the wolves.

Seer
The seer may see someone at night by using  in PM. They are told the role of the chosen player. Be wary though, for cursed villagers and mad scientists appear as wolves, and the traitor will appear as a regular villager! Certain other roles appear as villagers instead of their actual role as well; those will be detailed in their respective sections.

Oracle
The oracle may see someone at night by using  in PM. They are told whether or not the chosen player is a wolf. Be wary though, for cursed villagers and mad scientists appear as wolves, and almost every other role will appear as not a wolf!

Village drunk
The village drunk alters templates that are also assigned to them. A drunk gunner has 3 times the bullets and an increased miss and explosion chance. A drunk assassin has their target chosen automatically at random.

Harlot
The harlot is able to visit someone at night by using  in PM. They may choose to stay home by using  in PM. The visited player is informed they are being visited and by whom in PM. Should the harlot visit the victim of the wolves, they will die in addition to the victim. Harlots will also die when visiting wolf roles. If the wolves select the harlot as a target and that harlot is visiting someone else, they will not successfully kill them.

Guardian angel
The guardian angel is able to guard someone at night by using  in PM. The person they are guarding is told they are being guarded, but not by whom. Should that person be killed during the night for any reason, they will survive. The guardian angel can guard themselves, but cannot guard the same person multiple nights in a row.

Bodyguard
The bodyguard is able to guard someone at night by using  in PM. The person they are guarding is told they are being guarded, but not by whom. Should that person be killed during the night for any reason, they survive and the bodyguard dies instead. The bodyguard can choose not to guard anyone at night by using  in PM, and may guard the same person multiple nights in a row.

Priest
The priest has two abilities, both of which are used during the daytime. Once per game, the priest may use  in PM to give the target their blessing. A blessed nick always counts as being protected, meaning they would need to be killed twice in the same night or lynched in order to die. The person they bless is told they are being blessed, but not by whom. The priest may not bless themselves. Additionally, the priest may use  in PM to consecrate the body of a dead player. If used on a Vengeful Ghost, that ghost will be unable to kill the following night. Should the priest use this ability, they will be unable to participate in the vote that day, and are not counted towards the villager count in terms of determining win conditions (such as if they had been shot by gunner or given narcolepsy totem).

Detective
The detective is able to identify someone during the day by using  in PM. Their true role is revealed to the detective with 100% accuracy; however, there is a 40% chance that the detective's identity is revealed to the wolves each time they use their power.

Prophet
The prophet is able to receive divine visions of who has a role by using  in PM at night. The first time it is used each night, they are given half of the player list, with knowledge that at least one of those players has the specified role. The prophet can then attempt to pray again that night; if successful, the nick of a person with that role will be revealed. The first time they pray, there is a 40% chance they reveal themselves to a person with that role, should this happen they will be unable to pray again that night. The second time they pray, that chance is increased to 80%. This can be used to identify any role, including templates and hidden roles. If multiple people have the same role, only one person is given each night, and the same person is never given twice for the same role.

For example, say there are two wolves: wolf A and wolf B. The first night, the prophet prays for wolf and receives a list containing wolf A (among others). Should they pray again and were not revealed the first time around, they will receive wolf A directly. Let's assume they do not pray again, but pray for wolf the next night. Since wolf A was already prayed for on a previous night, they will not be shown again even though the prophet did not pray twice. A list containing wolf B will be given on the second night. If the prophet prays for wolf again on the third or any subsequent night, they will be told there are no other wolves, even if they never accurately determined the identities of wolf A or wolf B.

Augur
The augur is able to determine what side a player is on by using  in PM at night. Similar to the detective, their true side at the current time is revealed with 100% accuracy. A blue aura indicates the player is on the village team, a red aura indicates wolf team (including cultists and minions), and a grey aura indicates a true neutral role (fool, crazed shaman, jester, monster, etc.) Be wary about trusting blues though, as lycans will show as blue before they turn, and lovers with wolf partners may have ulterior motives...

Mystic
The mystic is told how many members are on the wolf team each night. This includes every role listed in the Wolf Team section. They are told the information immediately when night starts and cannot get updated info when wolf team members die, until the next night.

Time lord
If the time lord dies, the day and night timers are reduced significantly. Day drops to 90 seconds total, and night 60 seconds. The time lord is seen as a villager by the seer and oracle. The time lord is a hidden role, meaning that not even the player who is the time lord knows their own role until they die or the detective IDs them.

Matchmaker
During the first night only, the matchmaker may choose two players to be lovers by using  in PM. If they do not choose anyone, the lovers will be randomly chosen and the matchmaker will not be told who they are. (However, they will still know if they matched themselves to someone.) The lovers are informed about their love to the other player, but not about their lover's role. If one lover dies, the other cannot bear the loss and commits suicide. The matchmaker may choose themselves as one of the lovers. The lover's goal is to survive together with their lover, but they don't form a third team in the game. When the lovers survive the game, this counts as individual win for both lovers.

Mad scientist
If the mad scientist dies, they throw a potent chemical concoction which kills the players who joined immediately before and after them. If those players are already dead, nothing happens. The mad scientist is seen as a wolf by the seer and oracle, despite being on the village team.

Hunter
Once per game at night, the hunter may kill someone by using  in PM. They may choose not to kill anyone during a particular night by using  in PM instead.

Vigilante
Every night, the vigilante may kill someone by using  in PM, or   in PM if they do not wish to kill that night. If they kill a wolf role, succubus, demoniac, or monster, that target dies. If their target is not any of those roles, both the target and the vigilante die.

Shaman
Each night, the shaman is given a random totem (with chance equaling 12.5% to get any totem including death, revealing, silence, desperation, protection, impatience, pacifism and influence; aleatoire gets different chances, see here) to distribute. They are told which totem they have and what its effects are. They may use  in PM to give the totem to someone. They may choose themselves, but may not give a totem to the same person multiple nights in a row. If they do not choose anyone, the totem will be given to a random person. Once day breaks, it is revealed to the channel who received a totem the previous night, but not which totem (only the shaman knows which totem it is, not even the recipient is told).

Doctor
The doctor has a number of immunizations that they can hand out during the day by using  in PM. The immunization will prevent the receiver from ever turning into a wolf. Immunizing a lycan reverts them into a normal villager. Additionally, whenever the alpha wolf bites anyone that is immunized, the bite victim will die instead of being turned into a wolf. Be wary, however, because if you immunize someone that has already been bitten by the alpha wolf you will simply accelerate them turning into a wolf instead of curing them!

Wolf team roles
The wolf team wins when the number of players with wolfchat access equal or outnumber the number of players without access (&quot;villagers&quot;). All wolf roles have access to wolfchat, in addition to wolfchat roles.

Wolf roles
Should all players with these roles die, the village team wins.

Wolf
The wolf is able to kill a target each night by using  in PM. All of the wolves must collectively agree on a target. The wolf can retract their kill by using  in PM. Wolves always die if shot by the gunner.

Werecrow
The werecrow can kill a target just like the wolves; however, they can also transform into a crow and observe someone at night by using  in PM. Once a werecrow has chosen to observe someone, they can no longer participate in the kill. Once day breaks, the werecrow is told whether or not the target was in bed all night, where targets that were not in bed all night are all roles that have a night power and used it that night, with the exception of matchmakers, clones, assassins, and turncoats. If the target did not use their power (harlot staying home, timing out night, etc.), they are observed as being in bed all night. Werecrows are seen as wolf by the seer and oracle and always die if shot by the gunner.

Wolf cub
The wolf cub has no inherent powers, but if they die for any reason other than idling out/quitting, the wolves will become angry and will be able to kill two targets the following night. They can do so by using  in PM. Should all of the other wolf roles die, all wolf cubs will immediately turn into wolves; this happens before traitors turn. Wolf cubs are seen as wolf by the seer and oracle and always die if shot by the gunner.

Werekitten
The werekitten is the cutest role of them all. Despite being on the wolf team, their cuteness means they are still seen as villager by the seer and oracle. Other roles like detective and augur still see through the disguise. Gunners and sharpshooters will always miss when trying to shoot the werekitten. The werekitten can still kill at night with the wolves, and also kills any visiting harlots.

Alpha wolf
The alpha wolf acts like a normal wolf, able to use  in PM. Additionally, they have a once-per-game ability that they can use the night after a wolf role dies. That night, they can use the  command in PM which will turn their target into a wolf at the end of the night. An alpha wolf using the bite command can still use the kill command.

!stats will still show the roles as if the bitten person never turned, meaning nobody knows who it was. People immunized by the doctor are killed instead of being bitten and those protected for any reason (such as guardian angel) will make the bite fail. If either of those cases happen, or if a lycan or someone with an active lycanthropy totem is bitten, you can bite again on a subsequent night provided another wolf role dies.

Fallen angel
The fallen angel is a very rare role that only appears under specific circumstances. The guardian angel will turn into this role if they are successfully bitten by the alpha wolf. This corrupted version of the GA can kill like a wolf and will go right through any form of protection (including monster), killing the player being protected anyway. All bodyguards guarding that player will die, while any guardian angels have a 50% chance of surviving. All guardian angels are also given the assassin template upon turning into fallen angel.

Wolf mystic
The wolf mystic is told how many members with powers are on the village team each night. This includes every role listed in the Village Team section, except plain villagers and hidden roles (time lord). They are told the information immediately when night starts and cannot get updated info when village team members die, until the next night. The wolf mystic can kill like any other wolf.

Wolf shaman
The wolf shaman is a wolf-sided shaman, giving out totems each night to further their evil goals. Each night, the wolf shaman is given a random totem to distribute. They are told which totem they have and what its effects are. They may use  in PM to give the totem to someone. They may choose themselves, but may not give a totem to the same person multiple nights in a row. If they do not choose anyone, the totem will be given to a random person. Once day breaks, it is revealed to the channel who received a totem the previous night, but not which totem (only the wolf shaman knows which totem it is, not even the recipient is told). For a list of totems available to wolf shaman, please see the shaman section. In addition to their totem power, they can kill like any other wolf by using  in PM. The wolf shaman can both give a totem and kill in the same night. Shamans and crazed shamans turn into this role if bitten by the alpha wolf.

Doomsayer
The doomsayer is able to peer into the future and see how bad luck will befall someone, sealing their fate. They can use  in PM to either kill that nick that night, inflict them with lycanthropy the following night (meaning if wolves attack them they will turn into wolf), or make them incredibly ill for the next day (meaning they are unable to vote as if wounded or perform any other action as if silenced). In addition to their see power, they can kill like any other wolf by using  in PM. The doomsayer can both see and kill in the same night. Seers, oracles, and augurs turn into this role if bitten by the alpha wolf.

Wolfchat roles
These roles have access to wolfchat and are counted towards the wolf team's win condition.

Traitor
The traitor has no inherent special powers. However, should all of the wolves and werecrows die, all traitors will immediately turn into wolves. If a traitor dies while still a traitor, they are shown as a villager instead; the only way for the villagers to know someone is a traitor is for the detective to ID them. Traitors are seen as villagers by the seer and oracle.

Hag
Each night, the hag can hex someone by using  in PM. A hexed player is silenced and cannot use any special powers the following day or the night after that. Hags are seen as villagers by the seer and oracle.

Sorcerer
Each night, the sorcerer can observe another player to determine if they are a seer, oracle, or augur by using  in PM. Unlike the werecrow, the sorcerer is given the results of the observation instantly and can correctly determine seers/oracles/augurs even if they did not use their powers that night. Sorcerers are seen as villagers by the seer and oracle.

Warlock
The warlock is a wolf aligned role that is part of wolf chat, and can curse one player each night by using  in PM. The curse lasts for the rest of the game. It takes effect immediately, which means seer and oracle can see that person as wolf the same night. They can pass by selecting themselves. The warlock is seen as a villager by the seer and oracle.

Other roles
These roles win with the wolf team, but are otherwise counted as villagers for the purposes of determining win conditions.

Cultist
The most simple wolf team role, they do not have any special powers or extra information, but they are attempting to help the wolves win. Cultists are seen as villagers by the seer and oracle.

Minion
During the first night only, the minion is told who all of the wolf roles are, but not which roles each of them occupy. The wolves do not know who the minions are. Minions are seen as villagers by the seer and oracle.

Neutral roles
Neutral roles have their own win conditions. Some of them may start on one side and flip to the other, others never take sides and can only win if special conditions are met.

Lycan
Lycans have no inherent powers, and begin the game on the village team. However, if a lycan is targeted by the wolves at night, they turn into a wolf instead of dying (thus joining the wolf team). Lycans will revert to being villagers if given an immunization by the doctor, but they will also turn immediately if bitten by alpha wolf. Lycans are seen as villagers by the seer and oracle.

Turncoat
The turncoat is able to switch between the village and wolf side at will during the game. They can do this by using  or   at night in PM. They can also use  in PM if they decide not to change sides that night. They are only able to change sides if they haven't the night before. Turncoat does not start on a team and must pick a side by the time the game ends or else they won't win.

Vengeful ghost
If the vengeful ghost dies, they swear revenge on the team that killed them. While alive, they win alongside the default role (usually villagers). Once they die, they join the team opposite of the one they swore revenge on. Each night after they die, they must kill someone on the team they swore revenge on; a list of players on that team is presented to them and they must kill one of them by using  in PM. If they do not select a target before night ends, one will be selected at random. The vengeful ghost is seen as a villager by the seer and oracle. The vengeful ghost is a hidden role, meaning that not even the player who is the vengeful ghost knows their own role until they die or the detective IDs them.

Amnesiac
The amnesiac forgot who they are, and need to wait until night 3 before they remember what their actual role is. An amnesiac cannot use their special powers until they remember their role. While still forgetful, they win alongside the default role (usually villagers). Once they remember their role they join the appropriate team and all rules of their normal role apply. The augur, detective, and sorcerer are able to correctly identify the amnesiac's real role, even while they still do not remember.

Clone
During the first night, the clone chooses someone to copy by using  in PM. If their target dies for any reason, the clone inherits the target's role (but not their templates) and joins the appropriate team. The clone wins in addition to the normal winners if they are alive at the end of the game without having transformed, or whatever the win conditions are for the roles they transformed into. The clone is seen as a villager by the seer and oracle. If a clone forgets to pick a target on night one, a random target will be selected for them automatically.

Crazed shaman
The crazed shaman is similar to the shaman in that they give a totem away every night by using  in PM. Like the shaman, they cannot give a totem to the same person multiple nights in a row. Unlike the shaman, they are not told which totem they are giving away, so it is completely random with an even chance of 6.25% to get any totem. The crazed shaman is seen as such by the seer, but is seen as a villager by the oracle. The crazed shaman wins in addition to the normal winners if they are alive at the end of the game.

Fool
The fool attempts to get the village to lynch them during the day. If the fool is lynched during the day, the game immediately ends with the lynched fool being the winner. The fool cannot win if they survive until the end of the game or if they die for any other reason. The fool is seen as a villager by the seer and oracle. If a fool is lynched, any lovers they have do not win. A fool in love should instead try to survive for the entire game to get the dual win with their lover. Roles that can win alongside the normal winner can only win alongside fool if their win condition involves more than simply staying alive (so a jester or dullahan can win with fool, but a crazed shaman cannot).

Jester
The jester attempts to get the village to lynch them during the day. If the jester is lynched during the day, they receive an individual win. The jester cannot otherwise win the game. The jester is seen as a villager by the seer and oracle. If the jester is lynched, any lovers they have do not win. A jester in love should instead try to survive for the entire game to get the dual win with their lover.

Monster
The monster wins instead of the normal winners if they survive until the end of the game. The monster cannot be killed by the wolves, and is seen as a wolf by the seer and oracle.

Demoniac
The demoniac wins instead of the normal winners if they survive until the end of the game and all wolves are dead. The demoniac is seen as villager by the seer and oracle.

Piper
The piper attempts to charm all other players. They can charm up to two players each night using  in PM. Charmed players are told who all of the other charmed players are once day breaks, but not who the piper is. If the piper survives until daytime and manages to charm every other alive player, they win. If the piper would win at the same time as another team, the piper takes precedence. Lovers of the piper win with them, however other lovers do not. Charmed players keep their original role and do not gain any additional powers by being charmed. Additionally, charmed players do not win if the piper wins. The piper is seen as a villager by the seer and oracle.

Succubus
The succubus attempts to entrance all other players by visiting them at night using  in PM. The succubus can also remain home by using  in PM. While the succubi are alive, entranced players can no longer win with their team, but instead can only win if the succubus wins or if they have their own alternate win conditions (such as staying alive until the end of the game). Additionally, entranced players must vote or abstain along with a succubus or they have a chance of dying the subsequent night. If all alive players are entranced, the succubus and all entranced players (both dead and alive) will receive a win and the game will immediately end. If there are multiple succubi in play, they win as a team and share entranced players, and are told who each other are at the beginning of each night. The succubus is seen as wolf by the seer and oracle, and can never be headshot by the gunner or sharpshooter, although they can still be injured. If all the succubi die, all entranced players will revert to their own win conditions.

Entranced players are unable to target the succubus with non-beneficial commands. Attempting to use one of these commands against a succubus informs them of this fact, and they must choose another target. An entranced player voting a succubus will show as succeeding however the vote will not be counted. If an entranced player is targeting the succubus with a detrimental command (such as kill or an assassin target) at the time they become entranced, they must immediately choose a new target. A succubus visiting the victim of the wolves will die, however a succubus visiting a wolf will entrance that wolf and stay alive.

Dullahan
The dullahan is given a list of players at the start of the game that they need to kill. To achieve this, they can kill someone each night by using  in PM. If all of the players in the list are dead at the end of the game, the dullahan wins in addition to the normal winners. The dullahan does not need to directly kill all of the players in the list in order to win, nor do they need to survive until the end. Should the village attempt to kill the dullahan, they can expect consequences; the dullahan will kill one random person on their lynch in a last-ditch effort before they bite the dust. If everyone on the dullahan's list is already dead, the dullahan does not have any special effect on death.

Wild child
The wild child chooses an idol during the first night by using  in PM. Should they fail to choose by the end of night, one will be chosen randomly for them. The wild child starts off on the village team, however once their idol dies for any reason, they become a wolf. This happens regardless of what the idol's role is. The wild child is always seen as such by the seer and not wolf by the oracle and is revealed as wild child on death, even after they turn into wolf. The detective and augur can pierce through the wild child, identifying them as wolf or having a red aura after they turn.

Templates
Templates are additional roles that are added on top of the role a player is assigned to. Each player has exactly one role, but they may have zero or more templates in addition to it.

Cursed villager
A cursed villager is seen as a wolf by the seer and oracle. Seers, oracles, wolf roles, mad scientists, monsters, jesters, and fools may never be cursed. The warlock is a special wolf aligned role that can also give people this template every night.

Blessed villager
A blessed villager is very difficult to kill; they must either be voted or targeted twice in the same night in order to die. A blessed villager protected from death this way does not print out any special message, making it sometimes seem like the wolves did not kill that night or they targeted other difficult-to-kill roles such as monster. A blessed villager is not protected against a fallen angel, however. By default, only regular villagers may be blessed villagers, and even then the template is never given out to gunners, assassins, or cursed villagers.

Gunner
A gunner is given a gun that shoots special silver bullets. They can use the gun by using  in channel during the day. If a wolf role is shot, they die immediately. Every other role has a small chance of dying but will probably just be wounded instead, including non-wolf roles aligned with the wolf team. A wounded person is unable to participate in the vote and will cause the number of wolves vs villagers to be recalculated to determine if the wolf team wins. The gunner also has a chance to miss and for the gun to explode, killing the gunner. Wolf team roles, fools, and lycans may never be the gunner. If a gunner is killed by the wolves at night and they have bullets remaining, they have a 25% chance to kill a wolf. If there are bullets remaining after that, the wolves will pick up the gun and have 1 bullet at their disposal.

Sharpshooter
A gunner will be a sharpshooter instead with a 20% chance. Sharpshooters get fewer bullets than regular gunners, but they always hit their target and their target will always die regardless of whether or not they are a wolf. Since gunners are converted to sharpshooters, the same restrictions apply as above. If a sharpshooter is killed by the wolves at night and they have bullets remaining, they have a 25% chance to kill a wolf. If there are bullets remaining after that, the wolves will pick up the gun and have 1 bullet at their disposal.

Mayor
If the mayor would by lynched during the day, they reveal that they are the mayor and nobody is lynched that day. A mayor that has previously been revealed will be lynched as normal. The fool, monster, and jester cannot be the mayor.

Assassin
During the night, the assassin selects a target by using  in PM. If the assassin would die for any reason other than idling out/quitting, they kill their selected target as well. If their target dies and the assassin is still alive, they may select a new target the following night. Assassins may not change which target they have selected. If an assassin forgets to pick a target on a night they are allowed to, it will pick a random target for them automatically.
