False Martyr

The False Martyr is a role in Mafia games. It is an uncommon role; rarely seen on IRC games and periodically seen in forum games. It is almost always Town aligned.

Abilities
The False Martyr will (either under certain circumstances or at their own volition) be reported as missing at daystart, giving the impression they have been Janitored. They will not count toward the number of living players, and will be dead for all purposes of the game (although they will not have access to deadchat). They may rejoin the game at any time following their disappearance, at which point they contribute to the livelist for purposes of calculating LYLO/MYLO.

Variations
The original False Martyr role was played by Acionyx, in ProfessorLizzard's Pick Their Poison forum game. The player vanished (without a role-reveal) by their choice, then rejoined the game one day later an effective confirmed Vanilla townie.

Presumed variants (due to non-reveal in ongoing games) include:


 * Schazer as Johnny Cutarms in Tweet-Town - the player staged their death, and also staged a fake role to reveal as on "death" (in this case, an undetectable roleblocker).


 * GloomyMoron as Pinary in Meta Mafia - the player could disappear on a whim, but could only rejoin the game on the daystarts of days which were prime (D2, D3, D5, D7, etc)
