Informant
|
An Informant is a role that can send a predetermined message containing setup info to other players at Night, via the moderator. Informants are usually not allowed to self-target. Informants are not aware of the message they are sending.
Standard version
An Informant targets a player to send them a message with setup info in it, in effect making them Informed. This setup info is not known to the Informant. The Informant's message remains the same each Night.
Informant messages should be considered to be mod-confirmed information, however the Informant's identity should not be revealed by the moderator unless the message says otherwise.
Variations
An Informant might know the info they are sending, this makes them an Informed Informant.
Use & Balance
An Informant is a way to trickle out setup info more slowly than outright making that part of the setup Open.
