Town Reliable Cop
(gets correct results)
Town Inverse Cop
(gets reverse results)
Town Naive Cop
(always gets innocents)
Town Gullible Cop
(always gets guilties)
Mafia Mirror Cop
(gets what their target would get on themselves)


Everyone is assigned an animal. They may only speak with that animal's noises.
You do not know your own role (because your role card is on your forehead). Instead, you will learn every other player's reliability in your Role PM. The Mirror appears to be your reliability.

During the night, you will submit a night action and learn your result. The Mafia will kill their target in addition to learning the result.

Town wins if they can cooperate somehow to vote out the Mafia.
Mafia wins if they can figure out they're scum and trick Town as a result.
Your friendly neighborhood chef and baker. LONG LIVE THE CHEFHAT REBELLION!

Assuming that scum somehow instantly figures out they're scum instead of truthfully reporting what they see, for any given townie at least 3 people will agree on what their role is (Reliable cop will be seen as such by Inverse, Naive, and Gullible). For the Mirror Cop, no one will agree what their role is (Reliable will see reliable, Inverse inverse, etc.). This means if town can successfully relay the roles they see they win on the spot.

As long as there are two valid animal noises your animal can make, it's possible to encode ASCII characters with it by encoding different sounds as a one or zero. For example, with a cat animal you can encode "CAT" as:
nyan meow nyan nyan nyan nyan meow meow (01000011)
nyan meow nyan nyan nyan nyan nyan meow (01000001)
nyan meow nyan meow nyan meow nyan nyan (01010100)

where nyan = 0 and meow = 1

With optimal play scum can never win
