Role Description
The Schrödinger’s Cat changes teams every time someone tries to kill them. They have a maximum number of lives and will keep changing teams until they run out of lives or the game ends.
The Schrödinger’s Cat role name will change to reflect whose team they are currently on. Their job is to help that team win by defending them in-game or by taking suspicion off of their teammate.
The Schrödinger’s Cat will win with whoever’s team they’re on when the game ends. Ex. If the Jackal were to kill the Schrödinger’s Cat, their role name would change to “Jackalcat”, and the Schrödinger’s Cat will win with the Jackal (assuming they’re still Jackalcat by the end of the game).
Unlike Copycat, the Schrödinger’s Cat cannot kill.
