More Roles: Undertaker, Loner, ...

Postby LeDerpinator » Fri May 16, 2014 11:27 pm

Just some more roles that came into my head. Please note the following roles are just ideas and may be confusing or not very detailed.

Possessor
You are a poor soul who takes on a physical form of a body.
Alignment: Neutral/Benign
-If the possessor dies, he can return to life by picking any other person in the graveyard and taking their role.
-A possessor can only possess a dead person the following night after he dies (Something like the jester)
-If a possessor was to pick a cleaned person, he will take whatever role the person was.
-If a possessor returns to life, it will say "[Possessor] has taken over [Dead person]'s body!"
-An investigator if he investigates you, it will say you are either a medium/retributionist/possessor.

Identifier
You have a serious multi-identity disorder where you become someone each day.
Alignment: Neutral/Benign
-An identifier will take on a random role each "one day and night cycle" (Except the first day and night).
-You can only win with others if the random role you take on for that day meets the goals with other people.
-An investigator if he investigates you, it will say you are either an amnesiac/identifier.

Undertaker
You are an ex-mafia capable of being able to do actions a mafia-member can do.
Alignment: Neutral/Benign
-An undertaker has the ability to blackmail/frame/disguise someone each night (Disguising someone only works if they die the following day).
-You can win with townies/neutrals.
-An investigator if he investigates you, it will say you are either an Undertaker/Blackmailer/Framer/Disguiser.

Loner
You are a loner who just wants to be alone.
Alignment: Neutral/Killing
-A loner can kill two people each night when half the town is dead already.
-If put into trial but was pardoned, a loner can only kill one person each night.
-A loner is night immune.
-You win if you are the only survivor of the town.
-An investigator if he investigates you, it will say you are either a Loner/Serial Killer/Doctor.

Lurker
You are a creep who watches people at night.
Alignment: Neutral/Benign
-A lurker can watch someone each night.
-When a lurker watch someone, he can see everyone who does everything to the person you watched.
-Everyone who was watched by you will be notified of the lurker's identity.
-An investigator if he investigates you, it will say you are either a Lurker/Lookout.

The problem with Undertaker is that Investigator would know automatically that he's the Undertaker, as the other 3 roles are never grouped together. Same with Lurker and Lookout, because lookout is grouped with Bodyguard and Jailor as well. Not to mention Lurker is literally lookout but the person being watched knows without a doubt who they are.

Possessor: He is just an amnesiac who picks after he dies.
Identifier: It's is like a witch and amnesiac combined where he can pick one role each day. That's Overpowered :(
Undertaker: It's not a bad idea, but like Yak mentioned, the investigator message needs to be changed.
Loner: No.. just No. That would create Havoc! TWO people per night? Night immune? That's a hell no!
Lurker: Basically a lookout. But the person knows he's being watched.

Overall, Undertaker seems the best idea out of all imo :)
I generally go by "Dwern" in games too. So say Hi if you see me ^_^
