Novice

Novice Alias: none Alignment: Town Mafia Role type: not defined Choice: Night Status: Simple Normal

Novice is a role modifier that doesn't allow power roles to use their ability Night 1/Day 1.

For example, a Novice Cop would not be able to investigate during Night 1. Similarly, a Novice Doublevoter cannot doublevote during day 1.

This is a special case of Night Specific, and as such is allowed in a Normal game when used to modify an active ability.

Normal version

This modifier is allowed in Simple Normal games.

A Novice role does not function on the first Day/Night cycle.
