Amnesiac

Mechanics

 * You can be roleblocked from remembering.
 * You will not win if you do not successfully select a role before the game ends.
 * If you are killed the night you attempted to remember a role, you will not remember the role, and will die (and lose) as an Amnesiac.
 * If you are bit by a the same night you choose to remember a role, you will be converted into a Vampire.
 * When choosing a role:
 * If multiple Amnesiacs choose a Mafia role, they can surpass the limit of 5 living Mafia members.
 * If you choose to become a Mafia member when all Mafia are dead, you will automatically become the . This will be announced the following day.
 * If all Mafia members are dead and the graveyard contains only Mafioso and Godfather, you can choose to become a Mafioso.
 * When choosing a different graveyard role:
 * If multiple Amnesiacs choose to be, they can surpass the limit of 4 living Vampires.
 * You can select graveyard roles cleaned by a . However, if that role is unique, nothing will happen.
 * You can choose to remember as the role of a dead . The first time this is done, you will receive an achievement.
 * If you choose to become an, your target will be one of the currently living Town members except for the Mayor or Spy. If there are none, you will automatically become a instead. In both cases, the other players will be notified that you turned into an Executioner, not a Jester.
 * (known bug) If you choose to become a the same night the last Vampire is killed, you will not turn into a Vigilante, but rather remain Vampire Hunter for the rest of the game.
 * After you have remembered a role successfully:
 * Any attributes of your new role will take effect starting the following day; e.g. you will not be night immune, will not see the Mafia window, will not see Mafia visits as a Spy and will not clean any Arsonist's gas until the next night.
 * If you win, it will only count as an Amnesiac win for your achievements.
 * You are able to get any other achievements of your new role.

Strategy

 * Revealing as Amnesiac early in the game is unwise; it might prevent you from becoming a target, but it eliminates your anonymity if you choose an evil role. Note: If you reveal and announce you will claim Survivor the next night, you are almost guaranteed a win, if you indeed become a Survivor.


 * Try not to talk too much or make yourself a target before you pick a role. You do not want investigators finding out who you are if you are picking an evil role nor do you want to be killed by the Mafia or Serial Killer at night before you choose a role.


 * If you reveal you are an Amnesiac to one group, you should consider pledging allegiance to them to earn their trust and protection.
 * If you survive long enough, you can remember being an Arsonist the last night of the game and win in the following stalemate, since the arsonist wins in a stalemate versus most roles, namely the Godfather, the Serial Killer and the Jailor if he has no executions. This is especially successful if you play the rest of the game with a benign attitude, remaining neutral, appearing to be afk, being discovered and keeping it neutral, making the town believe you are a survivor, etc.
 * If your role is known and there is a living Town Protective, you could choose to become one too and let the other protect you. Be careful, though! If somebody tells they are a Protective role, and tells you to change into a role, then they might be tricking you because if you heal them, they can't die.


 * Survivor: Outside forces such as Jailor, Investigator, may threaten you to join their side, if they find out you're Amnesiac. Try to claim Survivor, if possible, but if there's only one "Neutral Benign" and you pick your role, it will be obvious that you are Amnesiac.
 * If the game seems like it will end soon, but there is no clear winning team, don't try and wait another night. If the game ends and you haven't picked a side yet, you don't win despite staying alive. The only exception is when everyone but the amnesiacs die.

Who to Remember as

 * Wait for a role you want to be from someone who died. Picking your role is an important decision, but it is generally left up to personal preference. Once a role is selected, refer to that role's strategy for further guidance.
 * Another strategy for Amnesiacs is to wait until later in the game, then become a role with the team that's winning. This will add another vote for the team you chose (i.e: Mafia, Town, etc.), boost your chances of winning, and allow you to appeal to that side if they try to lynch you.
 * Town Protective: Don't let the mafia bully you- much like the survivor, you want to live to be able to complete your chosen role's task. Likewise with the town and even Serial Killers or Arsonists. An example: everyone but a single Mafioso in the Mafia have died. The mafioso threatens to kill you if you don't remember you were a mafia role. Instead of doing his bidding, switch to a protective town role. With Doctor, use your self-heal. With BodyGuard, use your vest. You can then inform the town of his threats to get him lynched.
