This page outlines TemporalLich's unofficial sample role PMs.

This is my preferred format for Role PMs. This page is under construction.

In a nutshell, these Role PMs are intended to be easily understood and have consistent wording, so that a role's basic functions are explained by reading the ability text.

Goals these Role PMs intend to meet:

• Conciseness - These Role PMs should be easily and quickly read and understood. This is the primary goal, as players not understanding Role PMs is harmful to game integrity. Conciseness is achieved by avoiding unnecessary words such as reminder text.
• Clarity - These Role PMs should be able to be understood without confusion. Clarity is achieved with consistent wording.
• Modularity - These Role PMs should be able to be dropped in to many setups without many changes. Modularity is achieved by anticipating unusual situations.
