I Learn the character type of the Evil I learned.

Strategy

The Bishop is hands-down one of the strongest information roles in the game, providing extremely useful information whether they're Lying or telling the Truth. You know that at least two of the characters they Learned are Good, and that the other is either Good or Evil, depending on whether the Bishop is Lying or Truthful. Establishing this information is powerful, and can sometimes even be worth the one mistake you're allowed each round. Remember that if the Bishop is Lying, all three of the characters in their information are Villagers.

This means a bishop seeing a non-disguised outcast is always truthful, as they either saw an outcast or a minion. A bishop seeing themselves is also always truthful or corrupted but good, as they are either the Bishop, Doppelganger or Puppet
