It's a modifier before the role name.
lol?
Why not now?
People - well, sorian if he counts as people ;) - love you - were starting to make idiotic speculations on what the modifiers were. I object to idiocy on principle, so I did my best to squash it. Also note: sorian making idiotic conclusions is one of his scumtells. Thinking the role card we see there could be a vague reference to scum rather than a modifier looks pretty idiotic to me, and I don't know anything about game design.
Zeke, gotham - why y'all so interested in policing my claim? It's my role to manage. I didn't see you down on full role claims on day one, but y'all are desperate to think poorly of me for claiming a modifier after it stopped being useful, at least in part. Whatcha afraid of? That I put myself in front of you getting shot at night? The 'filthy' modifier would have kept me safe so most likely if there's another role relating to these things, I'd be unsafe from the next one. Yet I considered that and still claimed the modifier.
It also explains some of my behavior on day one, although if you want to kill me for thinking being a filthy town might mean i was recruitable, and daring to play to that, go for it. You'll see exactly what I've told you and then have nothing to discuss.
Can we please get onto the people who weren't bothering to participate in day one? Talk about whether to murder alleged lovers?
