Thaumaturge

Thaumaturge Alias: none Alignment: any Role type: Investigative Choice: Night Status: Untested

A Thaumaturge is a role that can learn if their target is either Town or Vanilla, or not.

Standard version

A Thaumaturge gets two different results based on the target's alignment and role.

A positive result is returned if a Thaumaturge targets a Town Power Role or a Vanilla non-Town player.

A negative result is returned if a Thaumaturge targets a Vanilla Townie or a non-Town Power Role.

If a Thaumaturge's action fails for some reason (e.g. due to a Roleblocker), a Thaumaturge will be returned No Result.

Variations

A Thaumaturge is a Neapolitan who thinks non-Town Power Roles are Vanilla Townies.

A Thaumaturge is a Vanilla Cop with inverse results on town players.

A Logician is a similar role to a Thaumaturge, which learns if their target is either Mafia or a Power Role, or not.

Thaumic is a modifier derived from this role that makes an action only succeed if a Thaumaturge would get a positive result.
