A Named Townie is a role that has no real abilities, but differs from a normal Vanilla Townie in the sense it has a unique title or attribute. This in itself can be powerful.
In particular, in Open setups Named Townies are remarkably powerful - the Named Townie can claim their role, and unless scum are brave (or foolhardy) enough to counterclaim them the claim is evidently true - and thus often, so is their alignment.
Named Townies are less common in Closed games, although inadvertent Named Townies can sometimes exist. For example, if a mod includes a Miller without a Cop, a Nurse without a Doctor or a Deputy without a Cop, the secondary/linked roles associated with the primary role have no power at all, other than having a unique title to claim. Under certain conditions, Named Townie claims can be quite believable, particularly if they are completely outlandish like FBI Agent - roles like those are too bizarre to be sensible fakeclaims.
