A Meta-Investigator is a role that can learn if their target is capable of investigating another player or not.

Standard version

A Meta-Investigator investigates a player to determine whether or not they are capable of investigating another player or not.

This does not include roles that only learn information implicitly (such as a Weak role).




Sample Role PMs

The standardized Role PM for "Meta-Investigator" describes the action as follows:

  • As a targeted action: you will learn whether that player is capable of investigating another player. (edit)

Example (simplest form)

Welcome to game! You are a Town Meta-Investigator.

You have the following active ability:

  • Each Night, you may target a player. Assuming no interference with your action, you will learn whether that player is capable of investigating another player.

You win if all threats to the town are eliminated and at least one town-aligned player is alive.

Confirm by replying to this PM with a summary of your role.

Example (with modifiers)

Welcome to game! You are a Town 1-shot Loud Meta-Investigator.

You have the following active ability:

  • Once in the game at Night, you may target a player. Assuming no interference with your action, you will learn whether that player is capable of investigating another player. Your target will learn that you targeted them (but not what action you targeted them with).

You win if all threats to the town are eliminated and at least one town-aligned player is alive.

Confirm by replying to this PM with a summary of your role.
