Another thing i'm not entirely certain about is the fact that He Who Was Fener Once is actually a FM. My theory that there were no Bahamudites before the Espers got created would mean that we had an Adventurer FM. Unless, after being recruited, he got additional abilities. It could mean that someone in the Netherworld, or whatever you want to call the place mostly dead people go, has the ability to bring people back. It could also mean that either A: The Scum Esper can bring someone back, but that'd mean he could kill someone too, which seems quite overpowered to me. Or B: Scum recruits dead people, and the human Espers bring them back without knowing their alignment. Although that seems slightly odd as it would mean he'd have to sacrifice someone.
I doubt there are third parties in this game. It is complicated enough already without that. So either he is town, or he is cult. Why would he use his ability on day 1 if he was town? Seriously bad play. He might off his best role.
As for the dead being recruited: by lynching previously dead people, as has happened already (which, frankly, was the expected outcome the second someone came back from the dead the first time - reading back, the major town argument was curiosity in 'can we lynch him, what will he CF as, and this is good to know for the future,' which invalidates any 'I think he is not scum' talk as scumminess wasn;t even a primary factor in voting him from the game thread), such mechanical recruitment would be nullified and the scum faction would become glorified killers, counting on reducing the absolute number of players on the game thread to win.
