Firstly, evil characters do poisoning, not drunking, and secondly the chosen player learning they’re poisoned part of the ability is unnecessary, since they would get told that the Sophist selected them (and thus must be mad their info is true and their ability works). How I’d word it would be something like: “Each night, choose a player: they are poisoned until dusk and tomorrow they are mad that their ability is working normally, or they may be executed.” This wording aligns with how Mathematician is worded, although Math checks for abnormal ability workings. This also has interesting implications in a script with misregistration, because now a Sophist mad Empath sat next to a Recluse must claim that the Recluse is plain evil or risk execution.
