Town Regretful Backstabber


If anyone with any not town alignment get lynched you will immediately loose. You win with other town when all the enemies to town are dead.

Town Mafioso

You may communicate with the Mafia only at night, even if they have daytalk. If the Town wins during the day,
or
if the Mafia wins at night, you win.

Mafia Townie

You may not communicate with the Mafia at night. If they don't have daytalk, sucks to be you! If the Mafia wins during the day,
or
if the Town wins at night, you win.

The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town

You win with the town. You have all of the following abilities:
  • Spectre: You cannot post. The players are not told you exist unless you possess them.
  • Mind-Controlling: You can possess another player by PMing the mod. Once you possess them, they may not post unless you PM both them and the mod telling them exactly what to say. You can PM the mod to unpossess them at any time. You also control their night abilities.
  • Time-Manipulating: You can PM the mod to end the current day or night at any time. You only have this ability while you have a living host.
  • Mind-Control-Resisting: You cannot be recruited into a Cult. You only have this ability while you have a living host.
  • Invulnerable: If your host is killed by anyone other than the Spear of Destiny Holder, you still survive. You can, however, die if your host is nightkilled by the Spear of Destiny Holder or if your host is lynched with the Spear of Destiny Holder voting for them.
  • Super-Strong: Your host cannot be roleblocked. You only have this ability while you have a living host.
  • Murdering: You can nightkill one player per knight. You only have this ability while you have a living host. You cannot murder the Spear of Destiny Holder.
  • God of the Town: If you murder a Townie, they will not die. If a player is lynched and your host is voting for them, they will not die. If you attempt to possess a non-Townie, you will fail.
Note for Mod
: If there is no Spear of Destiny Holder in the game, attach the Spear-of-Destiny-Holding prefix to a random anti-Town and give them the abilities of the Spear of Destiny Holder.



Mafia Spear of Destiny Holder

If you perform the factional kill on The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town's host, The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town will die as well. If you vote for The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town's host and The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town's host is lynched, The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town will die as well. You cannot be murdered by The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town. However, you can be lynched by The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town's host. Having this role does not guarantee that The Spectre, Mind-Controlling Time-Manipulating Mind-Control-Resisting Invulnerable Super-Strong Murdering God of the Town is in the game.

Notes for Mod:
When the Spear of Destiny Holder dies, attach the Spear-of-Destiny-Holding prefix to a random anti-Town player and give them the abilities of the Spear of Destiny Holder unless the former Spear of Destiny Holder was the last anti-Town player.

Mini 1673 has finished, so…

Town Black Goo


Everyone who targets you becomes part of a cult, losing their previous alignment. You aren't a member of the cult yourself.

Indeed. It's still a terrible role for the person who has it, though. (What inspired me to post it here was someone using it as a
fakeclaim
, which is just mad.)

I've seen it as a believable fakeclaim and had people take it in Greater Idea Mafia, it's a pretty terrible claim in Greatest though.

Better get ready for the imminent riot...


(Any Alignment) Rulemaking Global Post Restrictor


At the start of the game, you have a single hidden slot in the ruleset for personal use. On N1, you may use the slot to create a Global Post Restriction Rule that will go unannounced by the Mod until another player notices and mentions the existence of the rule and/or its effects in thread. This rule can be posted in any language and/or encryption, but may only pertain to the existence of a specific global post restriction or the prevention of all global post restrictions (including any global post restrictions previously created by this role). On subsequent nights, you may replace your previous rule with a new rule. Any rule you create must not deviate from the parameters outlined in this role description and the Mod may reject any rule that doesn't qualify. It is up to Mod discretion whether the previous rule remains or the rule slot is left blank after a submitted rule is rejected. The rule slot is destroyed and the current rule is negated if you are killed in any way.
Video games can be educational. The Oregon Trail taught me that Manifest Destiny is fatal.

Town split personality


Every time someone is lynched, you get excited at the sight of their blood. Your other personality takes over during the night phase and you can't stop yourself from killing the last person who voted for the lynch. If the person you kill turns out to be town then you become so overwhelmed with guilt that you commit suicide during the next night phase.

Mafia Reverse Hider


Each night, choose someone to hide behind you. All night actions affecting you will affect them too, and actions aimed directly at them will fail (this has commute priority, i.e. this part of the role works even if you get roleblocked). Additionally, if you investigate as Mafia, that player will die.

The all seeing Jester tree Stump

You win if you are killed. When killed you become the all knowing tree stump. All roles, PT's, mod notes, etc.. are shown to you and you decide what to do with that information. You can lie, deceive, or help any faction. Or do nothing!

Dr. Jekyll traitor - On all odd days and nights, you are town aligned. On all even days and nights, you are a traitor.

Mr. Hyde traitor - On odd days and nights, you are a traitor. On all even days and nights, you are a townie.

Win conditions as normal, but the game cannot end with both Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde alive.

Each traitor investigates as the alignment/role it is at the given time.

The old maid role is very interesting to me... Anyway to have it not game breaking? If a maf gets the old maid role and later trades it with a townie he will then know who the other mafs are. Maybe a multi ball game? Any way to make it work?

Haven't checked but possible someone has said something like this before.
You are a A Confused Player

You have no clue what your role is or your alignment. Each night, you may choose a random player to focus a night action on which may or may not do something.
