Summary:

“Each night, choose 2 players (not yourself): if either is evil, neither can die tonight or tomorrow day.”

The Mycologist protects two players if at least one is evil.

• If the Mycologist chooses 2 players and at least 1 of them are evil, neither chosen player can die that night or the following day.
• If the Mycologist successfully protects a player and they would die, they don’t. This includes attacks from a Demon, death from other abilities, and death by execution.
• The Mycologist cannot choose themself.
• Whether the chosen players can die or not is assessed at the point of supposed death. That is, if both players were good when chosen, but one turned evil in the meantime, both would then be protected from death. The reverse is true too - if the Mycologist chose an evil player but they became good, the protection would go away.

How to Run:

Each night, wake the Mycologist. They point at 2 players - mark the chosen players with CHOSEN reminders. Put the Mycologist to sleep.

If a player marked with a CHOSEN reminder would die, check if any player marked CHOSEN is evil. If so, they do not die. Otherwise, they die as normal.
