Overview
The Consort has the potential to be one of the most powerful roles a Mafia can utilize. Essentially an Escort affiliated with the Mafia, they have the ability to block one player every night, preventing them from using their night ability.
Strategy
- In general, blocking a random player every night until an Investigator or Sheriff claims is accepted play. However extreme caution should be exercised when a Serial Killer is in play with the ability to kill role-blockers at night.
- Advanced strategy: If a Doctor has been found, a Consort may block the Doctor to allow the Mafia to kill the Sheriff or Investigator.
- Once an Investigator or Sheriff has claimed they should be the primary target for role-blocking as they are extremely difficult to kill until all Doctors have been killed.
- Secondary targets for role-blocking are killing roles such as Serial Killers (when the ability to kill role blockers is disabled) and Vigilantes as they have the potential to kill off the Mafia at night. Arsonists should also be blocked if you can accurately determine who they are.
- If you hope to credibly claim Escort later on in the game, it is not advised to role block a single person continuously, even if they aren't a Sheriff or Investigator. A normal Escort would not do this due to fear of interfering with a Town role.
Options
- Becomes Mafioso if alone - (Default: On)
- Cannot be role-blocked - (Default: Off)
- Detects block-immune target - (Default = Off)
Notes
- Does not block roles immune to role-blocking at night. A message saying the target was immune to role-blocks will be shown.
- Blocking a Jailor will prevent them from executing their target.
- A blocked victim will be considered home (not moved), even if that person made any night action. (for Detective, Lookout, Agent, Mass Murderer purposes)
Trivia
- This role was once named "Hooker", but Blizzard found the language inappropriate so the role had to be renamed.
