If I am evil or corrupted, say “I am Dizzy”.
I can not lie
The confessor is simultaneously one of the weakest and strongest characters. They cannot solve the game typically, but they make a great starting point for your thought process, as they are either confirmed good or corrupted/evil.
If they are confirmed good, you can use this to confirm other characters or info in the village.
If they claim to be dizzy in a game with corruption, they or their neighbhours are potentially Poisoner or Pooka. They are also a great pick for Plague Doctor as this guarantees you to find an evil character, either the Confessor or whoever the Plague Doctor points at. If there is no corruption, they are always evil if claiming to be dizzy.
They are also a surefire way of confirming if a Judge is lying or not, as Confessor, even if evil or corrupted, cannot lie. Thus a Judge saying they are lying is lying.
