hokay. was waiting 4 massclaim to finish, but i guess i should go into why.

Non-lethal hostile actions used against me or a person whom I target to give one of my shots to, will consume a charge, and that action will not succeed. My assumption is that it is an anti-blocker power, but I think it pretty much works on any hostile action that isn't lethal. I gave one to LLD on Night 1, and my other charge I was holding was consumed last night. The shot lasts until it is consumed. I was trying to feign power early by dropping Jesse Faden quotes to draw scum actions against me, and figured holding a charge would let me know if it ever worked. I didn't really know who else to use it on since there weren't many open claims on the table.
so implication is u getting molded and it not working?
thing is i don't think inventor-types get to use their own shots usually.
also a shot being consumed not something i'd expect u to be informed about if u have this role. i mean presumably lld would not have been informed if targeted?
also consumes a shot if u target someone else, whether or not it does anything or not, AND consumes a charge on u ONLY when it does something? seems asymmetrical.
looked at control wiki a bit and i do think HRAs would be a thing and nobody else claiming anything related to that so the flavor works v well, but mech is wonky. safeclaims would be chosen by cakes so don't think u being a flavor-person is super relevant.
if anyone has counterexamples of the mech-points (games where similar role worked as toog describes) hearing about those would be good.
so yeah i wanna finish the massclaims to see if there's an alt explanation 4 the missing mold, and get an idea of the balance of the game before committing to yeeting, but u could be fakeclaiming.
