Description

You wake with the cult and you shadow a town information role - you see their target and learn what they learn, and die revealed as them.

Every gift casts a shadow, and the shadow has been practising.

How to play

You are cult, and tied to one of town's information roles - your card says which. You wake with the circle, and you see who your mark picks and learn what they learn. In moderator mode the moderator calls the two of you together, so you watch it happen; in narration you are never called on their turn and what they learned reaches you at the end-of-night check. You also follow them out, so a veteran they visit kills you too. The cop reads you as suspicious. If your mark dies, you go dark. If the circle crumbles with its leader, you fall with it and are buried as the Mimic, not as your mark.
