Name: Painter
Alignment: Mafia Deception, (Not original but here is my spin to it)
Introduction: You are a shady person that paints random sceneries that influence everyone who sees it
Attack: None
Defense: None
Unique Role: No
Priority: 2 (Night Ability), 6 (Transformation/Spreading)
Abilities:
During the Night, you may give a cursed painting to a player of your choice
Mechanics pt 1:
(How the Ability works)
-Whoever has a painting with them will share the Painter's invest result, and will be prevented from interacting with the dead/Roles that target the dead{IF YOU HAVE DIED}(Ex: Medium and Retributionist)(Such as Talking and being Revived) and their role is replaced by the role Painter
-The target may remove this debuff by simply being visited or visiting, however the visited/visitor will recieve the painting "effect" and shares all it's debuffs,It can only spread up to 2 times in total per painting
-You will know who has a painting by the end of the night.The target and their target/visitors will also know if they have a painting at the end of the night however they will not know if the painting has been successfully removed/passed on from them
(Other)
-If the target was both VISITED BY a player and VISITED a player, then the target's visitor takes priority and the target's visited player isn't affected
-If the Jailor has jailed your target with the painting, The Jailor will be affected by the painting
-You cannot target your own mafia members, but the painting can be spread to them by visiting the target with a painting or by being visited by the target with a painting
-If the Painter visits you/have visited the Painter, you will be notified that you have a painting as if the Painter was simply another person who was targeted by the Painter
-The Medium isn't affected by the Painting unless they have died,so they can still talk with the dead while alive
-A Medium's Seance would still go through as the ability's effects are lower than 1
-A Retributionist with a painting can still revive however cannot revive those who had a painting prior to their death
-A Necromancer with a painting can still perform their ability
-A player with a painting can still be used by a Necromancer however will have no effect
(Expected Gameplay)
Guideline Goal: Paint as many targets while staying alive for as long as possible in order to get the full benefit of your role, It's ability gives way for more claim space as Town will still need to decide if the dead target is the actual Painter or not, it also makes claims such as Medium slightly more believable
N1: Paint a target who may look suspicious and let it spread
N2: Repeat N1 but give it to someone important
N??: Check if it's needed, if not then save it
Attributes:
-Standard Mafia Attributes
