I agree with removing Spy

I always wanted it to be a tracker, but they just added that to Coven

Next best thing is probably Exacerbated's Scientist (parity cop)

Current Spy, with the mafia visiting ability removed, is fine.

IMO, I don't think any role should be reading whispers.

If there are no confirmed Townies in Ranked, removal of TPw roles, removal of Spy, making Trans silent, removal of DAs etc then Mafia Reading Whispers isn't needed.

It's objectively more interesting than Sheriff

Has a higher skill cieling too

To be fair, any individual slot can only be one or the other anyways

Plus, its high skill cieling is the exact thing more roles need imo

Updated for 2019

And I still think that letting it either Track or Watch is better than both for one ability

What would be the investigator results? Would it fit in the LO or Tracker results?

This is terrible, but it is possible lore for the role lol.

The Osservatore was once a peaceful townie in a loving relationship with Candy, not a single dark thought entered his mind. One year when Candy's birthday was close, he decided to organize a special surprise party for her when she got home. He followed her to her house so it all runs smoothly, but she never went home... He was distraught when he saw her visit the Town BodyGuard.

The following nights he kept tracking Candy, seeing exactly who she visited every night and without fail she visited every person in the Town. After witnessing the utter shock, he grew furious and his possessive side grew out, he started checking staking out every night to make sure nobody visited her and when she left the house, he followed her to make sure she wasn't visiting someone. He needed to see it all.

He was inevitably caught by the Town Lookout and was put onto trial, the Mayor decided that he must be banished from the Town, removed completely from the people he knew. The Godfather saw this as an opportunity and recruited them in the shadows, now he is back, and he's not happy about the wrongful banishment the Town has treated him with.

Mafia deserve to have something that can compete with Lookouts and Trackers. Faking Spy, Sheriff or Invest is made possible with the information available to you, i.e. You are the Mafia so you know who Mafia is visiting for your fake Spy claim. Everyone that isn't Mafia will probably be inno for a fake Sheriff claim. You know your teams roles and might even have a consig to fake investigator.

Faking Lookout or Tracker is a huge risk, Mafia team can corroborate and back each others stories up but they have no way of knowing who actually visited who at night and are easily shutdown by the real Lookouts/Trackers.

This role is great and would go a long way towards stopping TP/LO Jailor meta, I'm tired of getting Doc, BG, or Lookout and having to camp at the Jailors house everynight. That's three town roles instantly removed from freedom for the whole game, then there's N1 Escort and Spies visiting Jailor for confirmation.

No bump button, relevant again to help kill TP/LO meta

Shouldn't it be Lookout, Forger, Witch, or Osservatore? I think you missed Forger in the investigator result.

Presumably you want a different investigator result for Forger, then. What result group should Forger be put into, in the event that Osservatore is added to the game?
