Deceiver (Neutral Chaos)

Postby MahNamJef » Tue Jun 05, 2018 11:32 pm

Name: Deceiver

Alignment: Neutral (Chaos)

Abilites: Fake your own death at night.

Attributes:
-You can choose to fake your death by selecting yourself. When you do, you can choose how you "die" and what Town role you "were". (except Mayors and Jailors).
-You will appear dead the next day with the info you selected, along with your will.
-You will still be alive, technically, but cannot chat in both dead chat and Town chat.
-The next day, it will appear as if you were resurrected by a Retributionist and you will be brought back to life.
-You may only fake once, and you can be roleblocked.

Special Attributes: None

Unique: Yes

Goal: Successfully decieve the town and live until the end.

Wins with: All Neutrals
-Must kill Town
-Must kill Mafia
-Must kill Coven

RESULTS:
Sheriff: Not Suspicious (Even when you successfully deceive)
Invest: Deceiver/Jailor/Serial Killer (Even when you successfully deceive)
Witch/Consig: Your target tricks the town with their untimely 'death'. They must be a Deceiver.



Info:
-If you actually get killed when you select yourself that night, what you selected will still appear but you can chat with the dead like normal and cannot be ressurected.
-When you die after being "resurrected" when faking your death, your actual information will be revealed (Soandso was actually a Deceiver)
-You do not actually become the role you select, you just appear that way. Anyone who still investigates you or witches you receives the same notification as if they were a non-faking Deceiver.

The only problem with my idea is that this seems like a counter to Retributionist.

This is the last image the brain produces upon death. Could this be God himself?

So.. how do you win?
What does the goal mean?

Apart from that, I can imagine a pretty good play with a witch or something.
And don’t worry, Retri needs a nerf.

My idea is that the Deceiver's goal is easily obtainable. If you happen to win by living alongside Neutrals, the win screen says "Neutrals Win". Also, you can easily die... possibly a vest system?

The role does not actually have any proper goal.

This role has no place in the game.
It's so impactless, that even survivor has more impact than it does.

]My Role Ideas[/url]
Fair warning, I know many of the ideas in this are pretty shitty/unbalanced, but I have a lot more knowledge of role mechanics and balancing now than I did then.

Currently Working On:
- Nothing in particular, might return to rework old ideas. We'll see.
