Lore
Another Simple day in the Town of Salem. Everybody needs Silver, Copper, and whatsoever for their Personal Needs or Jobs.. The Mining industry is doing very well, and is at one of it's Golden Times.
Though You Could Say So for the Mining Industry, Its Employees are another Story. Underpaid,Overworked, Hungry, and on the Brank of Death, The Miners have some really hard and painful Jobs. One of them is him, a Genius, Knowing all Kinds of Ores, Rock Types, and generally a lot about the Underground. He'd Easily have the smarts to be an Expert Geologist, Yet his Job's horrid conditioning Supress all of his smarts. Years of worktime have lead to even more years of worktime, and the death fet like the Big Release for him. While Many of the Townsfolk may not know this, The Dark Sides do. They know Everything, And the Consigliere knew what smarts they were dealing with when thinking of the Miner, A Universal Genius forced and Supressed into being another plain Slave of the Mining Industry. He Knew Too Much, and the Consigliere knew that. The Godfather, Who had planned to use the Workspace of this man to hide their assasination, was hoping to meet the Miner at work that faithful day. Walking through Massive Tunnels, The Godfather and the Forger noticed that they may had been dealing with something big. Remembering the Consigliere's words, the Godfather saw a bigger Opportunity than just a plain assasination. After Entering the Miner's Personal Quarters at Night, he made him a big offer to use his smarts and years of mining experience for the "other" side of things, with the Benefits of being able to Express his Knowledge,a Fair Payment, and actually being treated like the Genius he is. Now what man couldnt say no to that? With a little help of the Framer, they were able to make a perfect backstory and scene. The Miner died of Job Complications, or atleast, that is what everybody had believed. His Expertise Helped the Mafia in such a big form that they could us tunnels as a perfect travelling system, with nobody above, hell, not even the Townie on the other Side of the Tunnel Noticing.

I love this idea as is, but I would like to have the Astral visits modified. Instead of it being completely Astral, its more of an indirect Astral.

Ex:
Werewolf cant kill you along with its selected Target
You can still die by visiting the Veteran

This would indirectly buff other roles such as Veteran and Pestilence, while directly nerfing Miner.

Other then that,
