What notifications did Player X receive in jail?

1. "Your trap is ready."

2. "Someone tried to hex you, but you were in jail!"

Reasoning:
 * The one person visiting him was Coven, but can't have been Poisoner/CL.
 * Possibilities: Potion Master, Hex Master
 * PM kills someone N3, which means their kill potion wasn't wasted. The other two potions don't notify the target.

Suggest the roles of Player X, Player Y and Player Z, giving full reasoning for your answer.

Player X: Trapper


 * Cannot be a killing role.
 * Cannot be Poisoner or Coven Leader.
 * Must be a role that gets notifications without visits, since there were two notifications and only one visit.
 * Trapper: "Your trap is ready."
 * Plaguebearer: "(Jailor's name) was infected with the plague!"
 * Likely TP. The Jailor wasn't killed by the Coven despite being known by the CL. Supports "Trapper" argument.

Player Y: Coven Leader
 * Must be Lookout/Forger/CL. The Investigator was not immediately able to call him out as fake.
 * Claims to have seen the Jailor visit the Mayor on Night 2. Since the Jailor being controlled on Night 1 was mentioned, it's safe to assume we would have been notified if he was controlled any other night. Since he wasn't controlled N2, and the Jailor has an Astral visit (that the Lookout can't see), Player Y was lying.
 * Likely CL rather than Forger, there is no evidence of a Forger existing (and no mention of wills either).

Player Z: Lookout If you are roleblocked your then you can't prepare your trap
 * Must be Lookout/Forger/CL. The Investigator was not immediately able to call him out as fake.
 * Watching the revealed Mayor is an obvious choice. Note that the Jailor wasn't revealed publicly, and Player Z was never jailed, the choice to watch over the Mayor was the best one.
 * If the Investigator is right (which we must assume), then only one of the Lookout claims is evil. If Player Y is the CL, then process of elimination leaves Player Z as the real Lookout.
