/Grand Trial Mo Lynch
Frankly, any neutral that doesnāt harm town in the first place is a bad neutral. The point of neutrals is to balance a role madness game as town gets too much power in these sort of setup.
A neutral that is pro-town is inherently bad design as it helps the majority. If theyāre confirmable, which in this setup it may be due to the limit random neutral spots then it makes it even worse. The backstabbing factor just makes it several times as frustrating instead of worse.
This is why in my SFoL none of my neutrals are explicitly pro-Town, the only ones that can be pro-town are the Senex, the Insurgent, and the Missionary. The Senex and Insurgent can go either way and is locked to a faction so he canāt backstab, with the Insurgent working as a counter to the King. Meanwhile optimal Missionary play involves cock-blocking as many lynches as possible, which is bad for town.

This is why I was so iffy on Angel when I first saw it.
Fk made a fairly great argument for why townsiding as Angel wouldnāt help them achieve their wincon, and how instead scumsiding during the day would be better.

Of course we need to see it in action in order to gague its optimal playstyle, as currently we only have theory to go off of.
Ideally Angel wants to scumside during the day, and townside during the night.
If itās too helpful things like the Prince will deny its chances to stop kills and further its wincon. As a result it needs there to be a decent amount of uncertainty to the alive scum.
Moreover, it wants things like Prince/Butler/Drunk out, which are also prime targets for scum. If it leaves them alive and/or open claims, much of its effectiveness drains
Jeez, last time I was this early the Alchemist was still removed.
At least I know what I want get in next FoL. :^)

One of the ways scum can deal with threats is conversion, so unconvertability COMBINED with infinite bulletproof accentuates how unfun it is to fight.
Thanks for your feedback, we have since then updated it to simply ārefreshā the original stoneskin by becoming king.
I forgot neutral king variants were a thing and whipped that up in 3 minutes, those were the reasons referred to earlier.

To clarify, this means that Fool will either (50% one or the other) have to get themselves executed on even or odd days.
