Mundane


For all intents and purposes, regardless of your actual role, you are treated as a Vanilla player of your faction. (e.g you can be affected by Simple actions, will roleblock Complex roles, and will give a positive result to Neapolitans [if you are town] and Vanilla Cops)

Quiet
(actually Wolfie's idea)
If you would be observed by a role that can see you targeting someone, your target will be instead informed that
someone
visited them.

Named - a Named role is effectively Vanilla, but is not treated as Vanilla.

If you insist that Named is still Vanilla for that purpose, I'd suggest Arcane.

Named is more of a concept than an explicit role or modifier. E.g. A Nurse without A Doctor in the set-up
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

Flamboyant

Treated as non-Vanilla for all intents and purposes. Always appears non-Vanilla to investigation, even if reliability or some external factor affects this.

If a Gunsmith, Flavor Cop, or Role Cop checks a Flamboyant role, they will receive, as appropriate:

Your target is very flamboyant.
Your target was Flamboyant, and thus, you were unable to check for their role/gun.

Named is Vanilla in all but name. I would suggest that a Named player would roleblock complex actions and recieve simple actions.

Exclusive

While alive and this modifier is active, you are the only one capable of executing your specific role ability. This means if you are an Exclusive Cop, no other Cop actions function until you die. If you are an Night 2 Exclusive Gunbearer, the Mafia can't kill on Night 2. If you are an Exclusive Night 2 Fruit Vendor, you can only vend fruit on Night 2 but nobody else can vend fruit until you die.

Sleepy


Your role only functions if there are 5 or less players alive.

A roundabout way of making a role only function the Night before ELo or MeLo.

Randomized


Your target is randomized.

Is called "Randomized" to differentiate from the "Random" reliability. May either act or not (unless also compulsive, which would mean a Compulsive Randomized role compulsively targets random targets!)

Lockpicking


Your actions cannot be prevented by a Jailkeeper, but you also cannot be protected by a Jailkeeper

Mirrored

The modified action is performed by your night choice targeting you, instead of the converse
(e.g. a Town mirrored Cop is almost the same thing as FriendlyNeighbour except that it interacts differently with Roleblockers/Rolestoppers)

Pre-randomized


Each night, the moderator rolls a random player alive that night and sends you the name. During the night, you may target that player.

Replace "night" with "day" if you are using this modifier for a Day role.

Effectively the
Randomized
modifier but you will know who you are targeting beforehand.

yeah... that's kind of the reason you'd use Pre-randomized as opposed to Randomized.

Compulsive is not baked into Pre-randomized (or Randomized for that matter).

Coin-Operated


Your faction has N amount of coins. You may spend 1 coin to perform your action.

meant to be used for mafia to be like n-shot roles but have to share the shots with the other power roles in their faction

imo Coin-Operated should also be allowed to work for neighborhoods and mason-like PTs, though you'd need to change "faction" to refer to the neighborhood or mason-like PT.

Shy

You may not target a player who is also targeted by someone else.
(E.g. if a Shy Tracker tries to track someone who is also targeted by a Doctor that night, they will get no result.)
