Overview
The Escort is one of the more powerful Town roles, with the potential to disrupt the Mafia, deduce killing roles or simply prevent a Mafia or Neutral role from ever achieving anything at night. The role has the ability to role-block a target at night, preventing them from using their night ability.
Strategies
- It can be a good idea to block the most suspicious players. But be wary of blocking Doctors, Investigators, Sheriffs or Serial Killers (when "Kills roleblockers" option is ON)
- If a player is blocked one night and fewer than normal players died it could mean that that player is a killing role, asking to see if anyone got healed by a Doctor or simply blocking them a second night could reveal this to be true. When certain announce this fact to the Town, by doing this the Escort can act as a Pseudo-Investigator.
- An Escort should not announce that they will block the same person again at night. If the Escort was wrong originally, the Mafia may choose to not attack anyone.
- If Serial Killers have the ability to kill role-blockers at night then writing the name of the target in a last will may help to point out who the Serial Killer is. Use the last will by typing -last will or -lw into the chat and fill information into the prompt-box.
- Having an easily readable and understandable format can be very important. For example:
- N1: #14, N2: #14, N3: #12,
- N1: #14 (no Maf kill), N2: #14, N3: #12 (no SK kill),
- Having an easily readable and understandable format can be very important. For example:
Options
- Cannot be Role-blocked - (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.
- Will be killed by a Serial Killer if attempting to block them (when killing role-blockers at night is enabled), however it will still prevent them from killing their target.
- This role was once named "Stripper", but Blizzard found the language inappropriate so the role had to be renamed.
