As Firesheep already said, by process of elimination: Can there be an Escort (i.e. are the Town Supports / Random Towns confirmed)? Can there be a Consort (i.e. are the Mafia Supports / Random Mafia confirmed)? Forget it if there are Anys...

You already mentioned the second "option": Find proof that you visited a Mafia member, e.g. the Lookout might have seen you visit a confirmed Mafia. A Spy could see who is visited at night, and will realize you aren't Mafia if your target (and nobody else) confirms you roleblocked them. As long as there is no Framer, a Sheriff will help. An Investigator will only help if they investigate you at the same time as the Sheriff.

I'd say the best proof is doing your best to be an Escort: 1. Don't roleblock confirmed Townies. 2. Roleblock different targets while the Mafia keep killing. 3. Roleblock the same target if the Mafia aren't killing. 4. Roleblock whoever confirmed Townies deem suspicious. || Consorts are useful if they e.g. repeatedly prevent known Protectives from protecting or Investigatives from investing. If you do not do that, the Town will be less inclined to believe you are a Consort, but instead an Escort.

In any case, Escorts die early anyway - just visit the SK, the WW, the Vet, or get killed by the Mafia/Arsonist for being a potential nuisance. Don't worry too much about proving yourself, either you do it by being helpful alive or by being helpful dead.
