Ok, so I don't really see the point of being cagey, since I already claimed my role essentially.

My character is Reiner Braun. Having only watched the anime, I had assumed I was a weak human because reiner is a lame side-character, and my flavor says I'm super sad because of my first mission.

Turns out that I'm a titan-shifter like Annie. Reiner is the armored titan who breaks wall maria near the beginning of the series. As such, it's reasonable to assume the weak modifier belongs to shifters.

If we assume that scum were informed of this in some way, it was either through a "weak" fake-claim or through special extra information.

If it's through the fake-claim, the fake-claim would have to be a shifter, so either Eren or Ymir. Eren would be the obvious choice for a fake-claim since he's not evil in the anime, and it corresponds with muffin's belief.

The other possibility is that scum were directly informed, which suggests that the weak modifier has additional significance. This is bolstered by the fact that both annie and reiner are uber-badasses, and it's weird that they have only disadvantages. Also, the opening flavor suggests that shifters are important. One distant possibility is that there's a mechanic wherein our roles change during the night phase (i.e. we shift), while it would be weird that we're not told such, it makes sense with my flavor since Reiner is amnesic about his titan-ness, and is also consistent with the super sad flavor. I think scum would be fully informed about all this if it's correct.

Fuck. Story spoilers. I'm sad.

If it makes you feel better, I had to spoil myself for this game, too.

I'll consult my good feelings and get back to you on that.

While Bro is some amount of abrasive as both alignments, he is more intense and confrontational as town.

I'm holding on to a sliver of hope that that's a construct of the mod. Don't tell me if you know it isn't. </3

Anyway, I believe you.

...except.

You you were weak? So you're not really so?

And how do you make assumptions when your role PM is right in front of you?

I know I'm weak, I assumed the reason was that I was a lame side character. Further research suggests that it's because I'm a shifter

Okay. I just read that oddly, then.

So...what exactly are you?

My role PM says that I'm a Weak Human and that I have no more special powers. My lack of special power is given special flavor in addition to my normal character flavor.

You're a human and a shape-shifter? Is shape-shifter pertinent to your role or is it just in your flavour?

Comparing with sasha: She gets some stuff about who she is after the vanilla townie statement. I have that too. She also has the 3d maneuver gear with a very simple, mechanical description. Instead, I have a named ability which essentially says that I have no ability, but in very flavorful terms and it talks about how sad I am.

p-edit: just flavor, but based on Bert's claim, I think it must be related to the weakness thing.

my role pm says absolutely nothing about being a shifter, I only found that out after looking it up.

Oh. Well, that answers my next question. Ehhhhh.

Well then. I'm back to confused. This "Weak" negative utility must be assigned at random and not related to role.

That could be, but it's quite a coincidence that both annie and reiner have it; there are only 4 shifters in the series.

o, misread that as not related to flavor. Yes, it might not be related to role.

KAZE ILL BE BACK TONIGHT I MISSED UUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Yes, but I don't have it despite also being a shifter.

pedit: I meant flavour as well.

pedit2: <33

O.O

k, could just be an unlikely coincidence. That's not fun.

I refuse to believe that there isn't to be found within this setup. I just need to figure it out. I don't care how much I get yelled at for thinking so. >.>

That also means you're Eren, since you wouldn't have known ymir is a shifter. Now I'm really wondering what muffin knows.

Kaze you think like a hero

Yep.

I know what he knows, but I'll give him a chance to say it.

I'll b so sad if u die n1 with pieguy again

That was so sad

Gods. Can we just shut up about the flavor? The flavor doesn't make someone town or scum and this is just a big humongous waste of time.

Muffin doesn't know anything, just drop it.
