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.

If the Clairvoyant Fox survives the day, the result of the investigation is also announced to the wolfpack at the start of the night. The wolfpack only sees the result and that it is from a Clairvoyant Fox - they don't know who was checked. The Clairvoyant Fox is neither a lycan, nor a member of the wolfpack.

The Cupid chooses one player to be their lover, and forms an inseparable team with that player.

During Night 1, the Cupid must choose one player to become their lover. If the Cupid does not choose in time, they will fall in love with a random player. The lover is added to the Cupid’s secret channel and the lover's role is revealed to the Cupid. The Cupid and their lover form an inseparable team; they will die if the other player dies. When this happens it is announced. Choosing a lover is an immediate ability. By default the Cupid wins with the townsfolk team. If the lover is on a different team, they will only win when both win conditions are fulfilled. For example, if the couple is Cupid and a wolf, everyone else must die. If the lover is a townsfolk role, they are townsfolk aligned and can win together with them (more examples can be found in $info cupid alignment). The Cupid’s love overrides any other mechanic that may cause a player to change teams for any reason; the Cupid is always on the same team as their lover.

After choosing a lover, unless they are also unaligned, the Cupid is no longer unaligned. If the lover is unaligned, the couple can either win with townsfolk or with the lover's win condition, however even though they have a second win condition they are simply considered to be townsfolk aligned. If the Cupid loses their role before selecting a lover, a random lover is chosen. The Cupid can never change role to anything but another cupid variant (more info in $info cupid variants).
