Priest in Werewolf: Abilities and How to Win

The Priest is on the Villagers' side. From night 1 they may, just once, bless one other person. The blessing lasts as long as it takes and stops that person from going home exactly once, whether by the vote or at night (a prank, a sleeping potion or a quiet send-off). It does not stop following someone home or being taken home. When it works, the blessed person is told (if it stops the vote, everyone sees the chosen person stay). The blessing stays even after the Priest has gone home. Settings can limit it to night-time trips home, or extend it to following and being taken home.

What the Priest's blessing stops

Whether the Priest's blessing stops any trip home including the vote, only trips home at night, or even following someone home and being taken home.

Choices
Any / Night only / Even linked
Default
Any

Any: the next time the blessed person would go home, by the vote or at night (prank, sleeping potion, quiet send-off), it is stopped once (if it stops the vote, everyone sees the chosen person stay). It does not stop following someone home or being taken home. Night only: it stops only night-time trips home (prank, sleeping potion, quiet send-off, the Vampire), not the vote. Even linked: like Any, and it also stops following someone home or being taken home.
