(no alignment) Alignment Cop


This role card is missing an alignment. If you can't pick separate cards for alignment and role and the alignment isn't overwritten by something else, reroll this role card as it is unusable. If you can pick separate cards for alignment and role and the alignment isn't overwritten by something else, you can't pick this card for alignment.

Each night, you may learn a player's alignment.

X+1 Shot


You are a member of the alignment with the most players with X-shot abilities (abilities that can only be activated X amount of times). If multiple alignments are tied for the most, the mod chooses one of the alignments for you (including if every alignment is tied with X-shot abilities).

All members of your alignment with X-Shot abilities get one extra shot. They are informed of this bonus but not how or from whom they received it.

Follow the Golden Rule!


Reroll, but you are informed that any action you take targeting another player will also target yourself. This modifier applies even if it doesn't make that much sense or would be entirely useless, and persists if your role is ever changed.

Public Braggart


Alignment up to mod discretion. You may investigate one person at night to see if their role is the vanilla for their alignment or not. If it is, the mod will make a public post announcing the fact that they are vanilla but not what alignment they are, preferably in a mocking tone.

Randomized Discard Janitor
(alignment up to mod discretion)

A random player (other than you) will have their public discard redacted.

Mod Note: If a public discard can't be redacted for some reason (likely because public discards aren't a mechanic in the game, e.g. you are playing standard Grand Idea), add "This ability doesn't matter in the context of this game however, so you're effectively Named..." to the ability text.

Zero times in the game during night, you may check a player. You will be informed of whether your check attempt on that player succeeded or not.

A public discard is a discard that everyone can see. They are relevant in Grander Idea and Grandest Idea, as those are based off of Greater Idea Mafia and Greatest Idea Mafia and are formats where role cards are discarded.

Town Mysterious Conduit


Each night, you may target a player to charge them with a mysterious energy.

Mod Note: This role charges someone with a mysterious energy indefinitely. (Roles like Mysterious Eidolon can lose mysterious energy charge)

Mysterious energy is mysterious, it will have a subtle effect. Mysterious energy is a lingering effect that lasts indefinitely. Mod Discretion applies on mysterious energy's effect.

Alignment up to the discretion of the mod. Once per game, you can prevent the death of you and another player.

I dunno if there's an accepted name for this modifier lol

1-shot Mutual Watcher
(alignment up to mod discretion)

Once in the game during night, you may target a player. You and your target will learn whoever else targeted the other player.

Mod Note: You will get a Watcher report on your target, and your target gets a Watcher report on you.

If this action fails, you will get a "No Result" Results PM but your target will receive no Results PM.

Bibliophile


You are a book club member.
In post 11393, Invisibility wrote: Alignment up to mod discretion. If there are no other book club members, a random other player becomes a book club member in addition to the rest of their role. You are functionally the same as a mason with a daytalk and nighttalk PT with other book club members, but also, at the beginning of each day, the mod assigns a book of their choice as the topic of discussion. You are not obligated to discuss the book, but also if you don't it might make the moderator sad.
Everyone in the book club is lovers with each other. (If one of you were to die, everyone else in the book club dies too.)

Bibliophobe


If there are no book club members, two random other players become book club members in addition to the rest of their roles. If all book club members have the same alignment, your alignment is one that opposes their alignment. Otherwise, you are a 3rd party. You do not know who is in the book club. You cannot become a member of the book club.

Each night, you may investigate someone to see if they are in the book club or not.

You win with your alignment (if you are not a 3rd party) or if at least two members of the book club are dead at the end of the game.

Book Club Member with a Book of Books
(alignment up to mod discretion)

You are in a PT with other Book Club Members. Each day, the game moderator assigns a book of their choice as the discussion topic in the Book Club PT. Book Club Members are not obliged to discuss the book, though not discussing the book might make the moderator sad.

You possess a
Book of Books
.
During the night, you may read this book. If you do, two random players will gain a
Book of Books
.

Mason Feasibility Clause applies to this role - Add "Book Club Member" to another random player's role if any Book Club Member was generated. If the Book Club has only members of one groupscum faction generated, the member added by the Mason Feasibility Clause can't be from that groupscum faction.




I'm assuming the Book Club is like a neighborhood but with books?

If this role receives a book somehow, do not tell the player the title; they can't read that either.
You're not entirely sure how you got here.

Choosy Suzy


Town. Once per night you may target a player. You learn if that player made a choice. You do not learn what the choice is.

The choice must be a game action, so choosing what to eat for breakfast, for instance, doesn't count.

Town Breakfast Eater


Each night, you may choose whether to eat breakfast at the start of the next day or not.

If you choose to eat breakfast, a random effect will happen after a prod interval (in a Marathon, the random effect happens at the start of the day).

Possible random effects from breakfast:

Roll 1d100 to decide a random effect

1-5 - You gain one layer of Bulletproof (You are protected from the next kill action), and you have the Healthy role added to your role (You are immune to poison).
6-20 - You have the Healthy role added to your role (You are immune to poison).
21-35 - You gain a Fruit Token. A fruit token may be redeemed for fruit and immediately sent to another player.
36-50 - You receive the Results PM "That breakfast sure was tasty!"
51-65 - The moderator announces in the game thread that you chose to eat breakfast today.
66-80 - Nothing happens.
81-95 - You are charged with a mysterious energy.
96-100 - You are charged with a mysterious energy and you gain a 1-shot Mysterious Conduit (You may target a player to charge them with a mysterious energy.) invention.

Mod Note: Mysterious energy is mysterious, it will have a subtle effect. Mysterious energy is a lingering effect that lasts indefinitely. Mod Discretion applies on mysterious energy's effect.

A Mysterious Conduit charges someone with a mysterious energy indefinitely. (Roles like Mysterious Eidolon can lose mysterious energy charge)
