The  will not lose his resurrection.

Deciding to Disguise

 * If the is dead, it is still smart to disguise as if you are killed you will appear as the role you disguised as.
 * Disguising as a or a  is useless for investigative purposes, as you share the same result.
 * Disguising as a role with Defense and then dying at night will make it extremely obvious that you are a . If you feel that an evil role might attack you at night, do not disguise as a role which has Defense.
 * Beware of who are baiting. Disguising as one will reveal you died, as a, to a , and thus reveal you as a.
 * If you disguise as a, the will know that you are a  once you die. One of them may end up outing you in their will, at which point everyone will know you are a.

Working with a

 * If you kill the person you disguise as, the upside is that your claim space for that one night is more open; you will not appear as an evil role. However, after subsequent nights, you will still be a, so if you are investigated again you will be discovered.

Working with a

 * As you cannot tell what role you are disguising as, a can help by finding  roles that aren't important enough to kill but have investigative results full of  roles for you to disguise as.
 * If your finds an important  role, like a, for example, and you feel you are likely to die, disguising as them then dying will reveal you as a , and make it easier to lynch the . This works the same way for.
 * Disguising as a person the has just investigated will make it less likely a  will think a  is in the game, deflecting away from your.

Reworked Strategy

 * In the beginning, if you decide to disguise, you should stick to one person.
 * This is a double risk, however, as it not only carries the risk of that person dying to a role (when there is one), but also potentially being called out by a . Thus, your biggest friend here is a, as they can pinpoint who the target is and allow you to disguise as needed.
 * Later in the game, as more roles are known, you might be able to disguise as more people.
 * For example, if you originally disguise as an, and later find a , you can use the as an alternative should the  somehow die.


 * A strategy you can use is to disguise as whoever the kill each night. Once that person dies, their role will be revealed in the graveyard unless they were cleaned. You can use this to quickly write a fake will if you are accused of being suspicious. If you are lynched, there are more chances the  will be fooled by your disguise.
 * However, this can be risky should you and the be killed by a  or a, or the role that you disguised as was unique.

Dying

 * As a, you are unusual in that a major part of your role only works when you die; you have the ability to show the last role you disguised as on death, whether you die at night or are lynched. This will appear both in the death report and in the graveyard. Taking full advantage of this often requires planning ahead.
 * To be fully convincing, you will need a Last Will appropriate to your role, which requires that you know the role of the person you're targeting. This allows you to do things like produce fake Last Wills implicating . Be cautious; however; if you're wrong about the role of the person you target (or if you're role blocked the night you die), the  may be able to make deductions from your Last Will with the knowledge that it's probably fake, e.g. clearing anyone you claimed to be a member of the.
 * If you can't write a good Last Will, just leave it blank; the might assume you were lazy, careless, or forged.
 * Disguising as a and then being hanged will make it obvious you are a Disguiser, as the  should've gotten a message that said: The jester will get his revenge from the grave!
 * Whether you have a valid or fake Last Will, you can try to lie to a, pretending to be a . Smart will be suspicious of you if you didn't have a useful Last Will, but you can get around this by leaving a blank Last Will and claiming you were forged.
 * If you've successfully identified someone's role and are disguising as them, you can claim their role publicly; provided you have a decent fake Last Will, if they try to counter-claim you and you get lynched, they're likely to be lynched themselves immediately afterwards - or, better yet, shot by a or executed by a, both of which will severely hurt the . However, remember that no matter how convincing you are, you will still appear as a member of the  to the.
 * When you die, any surviving members of the should immediately check who you visited the night before; your death will unambiguously reveal that person's role to the.

Dealing with

 * When a dies, they show the role they disguised as in the graveyard; this can fool  and can lead to confusion over which roles are still alive. There are; however, a few ways to handle it.
 * The biggest weakness of this ability is that they need to know the role they disguised as in order to leave a valid Last Will. Therefore, if someone dies without a Last Will or with a Last Will that doesn't indicate their role, they may actually have been a . (Alternatively, of course, they may have been the victim of a .)
 * If a appears to die to a, they are absolutely a  since  are Unique Role and cannot visit others or kill themselves.
 * If a appears to die to a  attack, they were a .  cannot die to their own attacks. Furthermore, in this situation, the  must have visited the  on the night they died, and the  either stayed home or visited the  directly. Take note of whoever died to the  that night; if any of their wills say they visited someone other than the Disguiser when there is no, that person is almost certainly the actual.
 * If any non- role dies to a bite, they are a Disguiser; only members of the  die to Vampire bites.
 * If a role that has Defense dies to an attack that does not pierce it, they are a ; however, note that there is a bug which can sometimes make other causes of death to appear for a genuine target that has Defense as long as at least one attack against them pierces their Defense. If none of their causes of death pierced their role's Defnse and they died anyway, they were actually a.
 * If you get a message that an has remembered that they are a, then one of the dead people in the graveyard was definitely a.
 * If you lynch someone who appears to be a, but do not receive the message saying they will get revenge, they were a.
 * If a kills an apparent  with no consequences, then their target was a . However, note that a  can be saved from committing suicide after killing a genuine  if a  bit him on the same night that he fired his gun.
 * If two people with the same non-visiting role die to a on the same night, one of them was a  visiting the other (and that other one was the 's actual target.)
 * Currently, a who attempts to revive a  who died disguised as a  will fail. This may change at some point in the future.
 * - If you notice your target visiting people but then later on realize that your target has died and appears as a non-visiting role, immediately tell the as you have just found a  successfully disguise themselves in the graveyard.
 * - You have the biggest advantage when it comes to handling, as your investigations will overlook the 's disguises. For example, even if a disguises as a , an  may be fooled, but you will not. However, you may still be fooled by a  who may use this to the 's advantage.
 * - You can no longer rely on concrete evidence to rule out the . Instead, you must rely heavily on strategy to find it. Your best shot is to investigate a target more than once, in case they might change the roles. However, a can bypass this, as the  may be unwilling to kill the 's target. Thus, you are the weakest when trying to find a Disguiser.
 * - Look for patterns. Is a target being consistently targeted without the target dying? There is probably a at work, but could also be a, , or . You can also look into the  chat to figure out whether or not there is a.
 * - You alone cannot figure out a, but an will greatly appreciate your help by role blocking the.

Trivia

 * Prior to Version 1.5.9, a would trade bodies and identities, but not Last Wills, with a target, assuming the victim died. This has caused some confusion and ultimately led to a rework, as some people would use this ability to get other people banned.
