For a greylist it has to be pitched as a variation of an existing role. Also you get only 1 greylist for non-larges and 2 greylists for larges as Nprmal.
Good greylist roles: Venge, X-Hit, Mediator, Alignment Cop, Parity Cop (either definition works, though first-definition Parity Cops should get results in the form of Yellow and Blue or something else flavorless), Moonlight Dancer, Named, Gravedigger (a miller for action investigators, is seen by them as targeting all who died that night with the Mafia factional kill)
Things I'd add to the blacklist due to distorting Normal expectations: Supersaint, any and all Voting roles, Paranoid Gun Owner, Unclear Flavor Cops (if you want a Gunsmith variant, you need to list each role that gets positive results), Electrifiertime will end- Ythan

Typically used for variants of existing Normal roles, you would be allowed to add 1 role from the Greylist to your Normal games. You would be allowed two Greylist roles in a Large Normal.In post 4, Jake The Wolfie wrote:Please define "Graylist"

For my graylist, I would want roles which are fun to have 1 or 2 of in a game, but not for the majority, or even powered majority to game.
For starters, I would allow some more neutraly roles to exist, such as the following:
Citizen - You wish to see the Mafia dead, but aren't a town member.
Scoundrel - You wish to see the Town dead, but aren't a mafia member.
Mercenary - You provide protection to X players, A, B, ... and C. If more than Y of your targets die, you will exit the game in a loss. You win if at least Y of your targets survive, even if you are dead.
Now for the actual roles, and not just alignments.
Redirector - Redirect your target from player A to player B. Your target will be notified about their new target.
Bus Driver - Bus Driver + Any players targeting players A or B will be notified about their new target.
(Optional: Allow all Power Roles to instead silently De-Activate their ability if Redirected.)
Named roles.
And let's add some modifiers because why not
Limited Deathproof (You cannot be 100% prevented from dying, otherwise your team might as well win outright)
Tree Stump (Initially starts out as alive, can at any time choose to become a tree stump. If they are killed before or during their choice, they will still die)
Auto-[Role] - A role which can only self-target. If the role in question is a protective role (such as a doctor), then it must be limited.Show"I'm sorry that you put asbestos in your coffee."

Possibly hot take, but Condemner and Savior. They're not inherently bastard. Condemner might shift the meta unpredictably though so maybe just Savior.- Ythan

Non recruiting cult and/or cultafiaOf all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Truly ån græy æxpæctåtion to put øn us.Norwe is spontaneous, has a stream-of-consciouness posting style, usually posts on catch-ups by commenting on past pages posts, gets rather fired up in certain moments in games, is relatively as playful as me in games and likes casual shitposting
