'''False roles''' are roles that, despite what the mod has told the player, do not actually have any effects, including targeted and passive effects. This could be used with [[Protective Roles]], for example, like the [[Doctor]], or manipulative roles, like the [[Roleblocker]].

The use of False roles falls under the definition of light [[bastard modding]] by lying to the players. However, unlike most roles in this category, they can still be used without unbalance or swing. They generally depower the town, by causing confusion.

False Roles are bastard roles that do not actually have any effects (including active, targeted, and passive effects).

A moderator would include a role like this only when they are trying to create confusion and frustration among their players. It can be used with virtually any power role or other modifier as it negates everything and turns any role into a virtual Townie or Goon. Note that the win condition is unaffected by the modifier.

Of course, moderators should never tell players that their role is false as it would defeat the purpose of the role. It is also impossible to have a False Vanilla Townie.
