Welcome to the game; you are the Continuity Editor
ALIGNMENT: Town
GENERIC: Role-Blocker
WIN CONDITION: All Scum and malicious third-parties (if any) have been vanquished.
BACKGROUND:
Yours is a thankless job. You are a reality show employee, responsible for collecting hours of footage and carefully editing it together to tell a coherent story, while ensuring that the Producer's planned characterizations of the contestants remain consistent throughout (regardless of any actions they might take that go against that planned characterization). Following an ugly dispute with Phil Keoghan, you were unceremoniously fired from your previous position, and now you find yourself here, trying to reclaim some of your lost dignity by editing footage for a reality show about demons. That should end well.
As a result of your position, you have some latitude in controlling the flow of the final story that will be told here. Some of the other participants may, from time to time, engage in activities that don't fit with the narrative you're trying to push. You have been given the authority to stop them from ruining the show in this way - within certain limits, of course.
Good luck!
POWERS:
1. On any given Night, you may select a target and rewrite the script such that his or her planned action does not occur (ie, you will role-block them). You are not required to act on any given Night and you may not target yourself. Your power will always work correctly, unless the actions of other players interfere. Please note - your ability affects only actions that occur during the Night; actions that occur during the Day will not be affected even if they are targeted during the Night.
