The Seer

The Seer is arguably the most powerful and important Villager. The Seer wakes each night and targets a player. The Moderator silently indicates whether that player is a Villager or a Werewolf. Usually the Moderator gives a peace signal for a Villager or makes a Claw motion for a Werewolf. The Seer must find a way to use that knowledge to help the Villagers without becoming the next target of the Werewolves.

The Seer tilts the balance towards the Villagers. They allow for quicker identification of the Werewolves. Frankly without special roles included game theory states that the Werewolves should almost always win.

The Seer Variations

 * The Seer can identify any special roles in the game.
 * The Moderator announces aloud the results of the Seer investigation. The players still won't know who was targeted or who the Seer is.
