Can I make people read poetry by turning them into roles

Town Special

Yes, but I’d advise you consider how to make the optimal way to play the role be to read poetry rather than adding poetry to an existing role (Night, including Night 0, Infinite-Shot) - Submit a poem and an ability inspired by the poem to the hosts. Hosts can choose whether to give you a 1x use of that ability the following night.
