I like Gurthang's Healer idea, though it needs a wee bit of thinking...

It would interesting to have an intrepid spy within the wolves-though that idea would probably necessitate four wolves. They could communicate secretly with the Seer, and reveal anything except the identity of the other wolves. IE, plans the wolves are considering employing, who the wolves attacked if the Ranger intervened, who the wolves think is Gifted, that kind of thing...

Oh, and if they were the lynched, the Seer could either choose to reveal them as the Spy, and himself as the Seer, or cold-bloodedly let them swing! A revealed Spy would be killed extremely quickly by his erstwhile comrades, of course, but that's the price of espionage. If the Seer let them hang, they would only be revealed as a spy if the Seer subsequently explained or at the end of the game.

Further complication-if the wolves especially suspected one of their number, they could execute him instead of an innocent in the night. Of course, they might be wrong!
