Ultimate Werewolf
Beholder
Team Villager
Overview
A Seer is the villageās ultimate weapon against the werewolves, so it’s always important to know who is a Seer. Behold, the Beholder! This role allows the player to learn the identity of a single Seer during the first night. While it may seem like a simple role, confirming the villageās strongest ally can change the course of the game.
The Beholder can be found in the Ultimate Werewolf: Extreme edition.

Beholder's Guide
As mentioned before, the ability to know the Seer is a major advantage. However, a werewolfās main target is the Seer, and would love to have their hands on that bit of information. So the Beholder must use this knowledge with discretion, especially if a Sorceress is in the game.
Don't Reveal the Seer:
The Seer is the villageās most valuable asset, and as the Beholder, it is essential to safeguard their identity. The best safety measure is keeping the Seerās identity a secret, and do not reveal it. You can, of course, confirm their identity if the Seer makes themselves public.
2nd the Seer:
The Seerās choices are guided by their insights into the true identities of players. By aligning your votes with the Seerās, you create a unified front that carries more weight and increases the likelihood of eliminating the werewolves.

Moderator Tips
The Beholder only wakes up during the first night, and their ability to see a Seer is straightforward. This makes it an easy role for the Moderator to manage. Still, here are some tips to remember:
Beholds only one:
Even with multiple Seers, the Beholder only knows one. As Moderator, pick which Seer the Beholder will know beforehand.
POST-REVELATION:
After the first night, the Beholder acts like a regular villager. They can use their knowledge about the Seer strategically, but there’s nothing else for the Moderator to manage with them after that.
