Flavor is Medivh.
Somewhat questionable matching with flavor imo, medivh's W is a temporary damage nullification barrier on a player. I don't see how that fits bodyguard.
He's got plenty of options for investigative with raven form or blocking with either poly bomb or ley line seal, commute or redirect w/ portal.
bodyguard of all things for medivh seems really weird
Also I don't know about others but my ability/abilities are named after my HOTS ability, not a mafia role

I refuse to believe you have a role PM that says you're Medivh, town bodyguard. My PM has character, character flavor title, ability name, etc.

This is a reasonable statement, but I'm more in tune with your earlier line of thought that Foxy had roles and fit picks to roles.

I'm not the one who said that, pretty sure that was OA.

Because I actually don't agree with that.
It's definitely not how I design U-picks.

The way he does reads lists is also a pet peeve of mine. It's a hell of a lot of paraphrasing and summary that normally just is strawmanning whatever the target said. Here is really no different.

Talking about persivul's reasoning on shadow.

In the same post you say you know nothing about the flavor, and also note that you needed to send in characters, acknowledging that you had to do at least a little research and learn something about the flavor 229 - A different time zone doesn't explain several days with no real contribution.
I see several scummy things and not a single townie thing so far.
...Like... It's just not good. Format isn't conclusive to helping, and note how he takes EVERYTHING as something bad. Highly unlikely considering if everything S_S had said was scummy or bad as suggested, he'd be lynched far before. It's a case made to fit his vote, not the other way around.

I don't see how that makes a difference?
It says last guardian under character name and my ability is force of will.
I can protect a player from all kills and I die, which may suggest there is an sk.

Can we lynch Dunn now?
Persivul said he will be some sort of confirmed town tomorrow so I don't see a compelling reason to lynch him today.

Per the rules there's only town and mafia. The "all" kills means either: it's made-up bullshit; or, there's a vig.

i think someone who made that up off the cuff isn't hyperanalyzing the meaning of the wording of it

agree it doesn't necessarily make him town, although a scum bodyguard would be a cruel joke here
actually knowing for sure that we have a vig (who i would probably tell never to shoot in this setup barring unconventional circumstances) would make me strongly suspect this claim was scum

well, if we end up at evens then they can shoot

if we don't have a vig, i would find it hard to believe this claim isn't town though

Meh I don't know I guess it's possible he did make it up
