The Knowledgeable Wolf starts out with some information about the role list.

At the start of the game the Knowledgeable Wolf is told some of the roles on the role list. The Knowledgeable Wolf can only be used in games with a partial or private role list and usually receives a partial role list. Alternatively, the Hosts may decide to tell the Knowledgeable Wolf about all the roles in the game.

Throughout the game, all abilities used on the Bard will be narrated to everyone in story time.

All abilities used throughout a phase are narrated at the end of the phase. If the Bard changes roles, abilities are no longer narrated, however the role change is still narrated. The narrated info only reveals the ability type and not the role who used the ability. Further details are also not revealed (e.g. if a tanner disguises the Bard, it is narrated that the Bard was disguised, however the applied disguise is not revealed, nor is which role disguised the Bard). The following general ability types exist for Bard: “attacked”, “investigated”, “disguised”, “killed”, “targeted”, “protected”, “manipulated” and “changed role”. Abilities that do not fall under one of these categories (e.g. Flute Player's enchant or Hooker's sleeping) are directly revealed. Abilities used on the Bard while they are dead are not narrated. Lynches and Elections are not narrated.
