If the Godfather is visited by an Ex-Mafia, they instead get the message "{Name} visited you last night, the traitor."

Achievements:
"Don't Hurt Me" - Kill a Town Killing role that visited you.
"I found you all" - Investigate all living members of the Mafia in the game.
"Peaceful Victory" - Win a game without being visited by any members of the Mafia.

Additional Information:
This role was designed to be a Neutral Evil role, but to the Mafia, while also being able to win with the Town. I wanted something, lore-wise, to them to be an ex-mafia member, and hence is now living his life in fear of being visited by them and killed, hence killing anyone who visits with a gun (note that the SK, WW and Arso would not be affected when visiting him, since SK uses a knife, WW is a beast, and Arso makes people burn alive). For this reason, the town will think they are Mafia, when really they are not.

Lore:
Living on the streets, this person was taken in by the Mafia to be a Consigliere. However, after some time, they realised what they were doing wasn't right. Now, they live in fear, afraid that the Mafia will visit them to kill them for their betrayal. The town knows he was a member of the mafia too, and so don't trust them either.

N.B. Apologies if this has already been suggested before. Any balancing ideas would be appreciated.

So this is a buffed Sheriff, that shows as Suspicious to normal sheriffs.

Sounds like a bad idea. The Miller concept (an innocent role that shows as Suspicious by default) is bad for Town of Salem.

This role is a buffed Sheriff in the sense that:
- It has a strictly easier win condition - it wins any time a Sheriff would win, plus in certain other cases (i.e. when the NK wins).
- It gets clearer information than the current Sheriff does (including being able to find the Godfather?!?)
- It ALSO gets the Vampire Hunter defense against every player it can't win with, plus some other killing roles. Why???

So I'm going with "extremely overpowered", with a side of "this type of role is bad for the game".

Bad Idea, not the role, but the win condition. The Town is already looking for the Mafia, why have a Mafia hunter? Also, the fact that you cant see coven because... lore? Also bad idea, lore shouldn't affect how the game plays out.
Sorry man but /nosupport
