Role Name: Impersonator (Town Protective)
You are a former spy now retired who specialized in the art of disguise and deception
Attack: None
Defense: None
Abilities:
Spoiler: Day Ability:
-Pick another player to Impersonate if they receive what would of been a fatal attack during the night fake your death as that player.
-If the player you Impersonated receives a lethal attack they do not die
-You will fake your death instead but appear as the player's role and name who would of died in the graveyard with their will, the other player is now Impersonating you
=======================================================================
-Selecting yourself with your day ability will allow you to fake your own death if you are attacked by an lethal attack
-This ability has 1 time use and will use up the 1 charge regardless of if you do get attacked or not
(like Bodyguards and Doctors self vests/heals)
-You swap identities with no one and simply fake your own death
=======================================================================
Ability once Death is Faked:
-Visit someone each night with an astral visit if they die assume their identity and get their will and become their role
(this will not be announced to anyone but the person whose identity you assumed they are dead though so cant tell the people alive this)
-You will have access to your old will as well as the one of the person's identity
(this will fail for any non town role you will not be told if the ability fails!)
-You CANNOT use this ability if you did not successfully fake your death being killed naturally will not let you use this ability!
Attributes:
Spoiler: -The player who would of died will receive a notification what you did and that before you faked your death you helped them impersonate your former guise.
(it will be a screen notification like you see with pirate but at the end of the night and will be very noticeable so players will not miss that this happened to them!)
-To put it in simpler terms they know that you swapped bodies with them and then you faked your death whether they choose to tell town this is up to them (town may not believe this it's not provable)
-You will appear as the role you are impersonating with your day ability if any role like - Sheriff, Investigator, Consigliere, Witch, Potion Master and Coven leader checks you that night in their results
-The person you let impersonate you after you fake your own death still keeps their old role they DON'T become your role the Impersonator
===================================================================================
-If BOTH of you are attacked with a lethal attack that night of the faked death the day ability will partially fail the person you Impersonated will be saved from death but you will die for real and appear as you own role in the graveyard your identities will not be switched
-if you do die for real during the night you will appear as your own role not the role you Impersonated with your day ability
-I thought this was obvious but i'll clarify it anyway. while your death is faked you cannot vote or speak in town chat
-You cant see or speak in dead chat either
-You can see what alive chat says during the day while your death is faked
Role Interactions:
Spoiler: -Yes you can end up saving evil roles with this role and giving them your identity if you use the ability without thought or consideration.
-A Mayor must reveal again to gain 3 votes if they have revealed all ready once they are Impersonating you
-If Necromancer tries to use your body with their ability when your death is faked the ability will fail
-If Retributionist tries to revive you when your death is faked the revive will fail the Retributionist will not lose their revive
-Retributionist cannot revive a person whose identity was assumed from a faked death
(this is because of two factors, the issue of two unique roles being alive at same time not being allowed and the second issue is the retributionist would have to target your previous identity since you assumed the identity of the that person they are your old identity now, it would also be very confusing)
-For any Unique Town role with charges to their abilities you will inherit how many charges they had left when you assume their identity this applies to (Vet, Jailor, and Ret and Mayor)
-As stated before you will inherit Jailor's execute charges, but you won't inherit not being able to execute if the Jailor's Identity you assumed previously executed a town member
Game Example of Role Mechanics:
Spoiler: -You are John the Impersonator
-You decide to impersonate Sam the Mayor with your day ability
-That night Sam is attacked fatally
-You save Sam and let him swap identities with you and fake your own death
-You are Sam the mayor appearing dead in the graveyard
(you are fake dead and really the impersonator not the mayor)
-Sam is is impersonating you as John and is alive
(he is does not become your role the impersonator he is still the Mayor)
-You are still Sam and fake dead waiting to assume a town's identity the night they die
-Martha the Escort is killed you correctly predicted this and were prepared to assume her identity
-You Sam are now Martha the escort
(you actually become the escort not faked now similar too amnesiac)
-Martha is still dead and still the escort expect she is now Sam
(if shes speak in dead chat it will show Sam talking not her like how old disguiser worked)
I hope i worded this well enough i know this role can be confusing
Goal:
Spoiler: Lynch every criminal and evildoer.
Investigative Results
Spoiler: When Not Impersonating someone:
Sheriff: Your target is not suspicious
Investigator: Your target is Doctor, Disguiser, Serial Killer, Potion Master or Impersonator!
Consigliere: Your target is a master of concealment and deception they must be the Impersonator!
When Impersonating Someone
you appear as whatever role you are impersonating with the day ability
Purpose of this role:
Spoiler: -This role saves someone from death and allows them to take your identity
-This allows high priority roles to once again regain their anonymity and evils will think
key town roles are dead, a surprise veteran or mayor are good examples of this
-Once your death is faked you can no longer save anyone instead your goal is to get back into the game by assuming the identity and role of a town member the night they die
-I know A Lot you are thinking of this is some weird OP Ret amnesiac combo but it isn't, think about it like this
-While fake dead you can heal any town role once but in return they let you take control of their actions while you are fake dead,
-It's more like a doc that saves someone once then takes control of any town person they heal,
-Also it doesn't add a new role into the game at all because you were never dead to begin with just faking it
