Gatekeeper (Town Power)

Postby Brilliand » Mon Nov 15, 2021 9:41 pm

I'm posting this role on behalf of Phobialunatic on Discord.

Role Name: Gatekeeper

Role Alignment: Town Power

Special Attributes:
  • Roleblock Immunity
  • Control Immunity
  • Unique
Attack: None
Defense: None

Abilities: Lock the gate between players 7 and 8, preventing anyone from crossing to the other side.

Attributes:
  • There is a gate between players 7 and 8, in which you can track, lock and see people cross.
  • You will know the names of every player that passes your gate (Apart from astral visits).
  • 2 times per game, you may lock the gate, preventing anyone from crossing to the other side.

Goal: Lynch every criminal and evildoer.

Investigative Results:
Sheriff: You cannot find evidence of wrongdoing. Your target seems innocent.
Investigator: Your target could be a Spy, Blackmailer, Jailor or Gatekeeper.
Consigliere/Witch/Coven Leader: Your target is the warden of the gate in the middle of town. He must be a Gatekeeper!

Notifications:
For the Gatekeeper:
  • You saw ____ pass through your gate.
  • You locked your gate, preventing anyone from passing through.

For other players:
  • You were unable to visit your target, because the gate was locked.

Additional Info:
Yes, this role can block Transporter from passing through the gate (it's similar to jailing in that regard). However, it won't block a Pirate, since pirates cross over before the night begins.
A Transporter passing through will only generate one notification, even if both his targets are on the other side.

I think the Gate should be on you and the opposite side of the map.

Example: Let's say you're 1. The gates would be between 8 and 9, meaning 2-8 and 9-15 are on opposing sides.
Another example: Let's say you're 11. The gates would be between 3 and 4, meaning 4-10 and 1-3/12-15 are on opposing sides.

Between players 7/8 is not where the gate should automatically go to, that’s just RNG. I think you should be able to choose where to place your gate, that will also make this role more strategic.
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
