Postby blackaxe3 » Fri Nov 12, 2021 3:39 pm

Name: Extortionist

Alignment: Neutral (Chaos)

Attack: None
Defense: Basic

Abilities: You may extort a player. They will be roleblocked, framed, and blackmailed every subsequent night. You may read private messages.
Attributes: You may extort one living player. You win if the player you extorted loses. You are immune to extortion.

Goal: Extort someone and see them lose.

Messages:
You have been extorted. You will hide everything.

You have decided to extort Player tonight.

Someone tried to extort you but you have nothing to hide! (Other Extortionists, Blackmailers, and players who died the same night.)

Your target has nothing to hide! (Other Extortionists, Blackmailers, and players who died the same night.)
My Name Picks:

Royal Match - my default pick
Melon King - when someone named themselves Pumpkin King
Godfather - for role theme or to just bait people
Cottan Mother - to cause confusion

Interesting idea but I feel as if it won't be a fun game for the player being targetted. They can literally do nothing. They can't defend themselves, do their jobs etc.

On the flip side, the Extortionist also has an overly difficult task, because it's hard to know which faction the extorted player is even a part of.

So you select a player and basically remove them from the game with no counterplay or anything

No
