Reroll, except opposite alignment and self aware


Reroll, and reverse the alignment of the resulting role. If the role has any "mod notes" or other hidden features, the player receiving the role learns about those too.

Town 1-Shot Activated Bulletproof

Once per game, you may activate your bulletproof vest rendering you immune to normal kills.
The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic states that every integer greater than one can be expressed as a unique (up to ordering) product of primes.

Town Dreaming Demon


You may PM the moderator at any time saying "Dreams". You may do this once in the game.

The moderator will then post "I'm dreaming of (a/an) X" at the start of the next Day, where X is the role card of a random living player.

Town Random Action


Each night, choose a target. Then the moderator will roll at random on the Grand Idea Mafia list until they find a role with a single active ability; you use that ability on the chosen target. You won't be told what ability you used (although in some cases it may be possible to guess), and each use of the ability is a separate roll (i.e. you're using a random action each time, not a single random action every time).

You may target a player to give them any one of these 1-shot abilities:

Town Gravedigger


You are considered to be targeting all players who have died during the night with the Mafia factional kill for the purposes of action investigators (e.g. Tracker/Watcher/Follower/Observer/Motion Detector).

Mod Note: This is a Grand Idea adaptation of a Great Idea role to account for follower/observer types.

Condemner Governor


You must be on the elimination wagon of your target to win.

Your target is a random town-aligned player.

You may post
GOVERN: {player}
in the game thread during the Day. That player will be ineligible to be eliminated or voted that Day. You may use this ability once per Day.

That One Role I've Seen In Here, Either This or the Other Idea Thread, That Lets You Break Up An Argument Between Two People and Make Them Talk About Other Stuff Instead (or at least not continue to tunnel on each other) - Town


Functionally a Named Vanilla Townie. Show this whole role card if you want.

((Note: I have the role in mind, just don't remember the post number or what it's called or what the exact wording on the card was. This text is a placeholder while I go look up the specifics. If I get tired of searching back through the thread and give up halfway through, I'm fine with this role being functionally a Vanilla Townie, but keep the name. I think it's amusing, and if you don't, I'm sorry you can't derive enjoyment from my sense of humor but I'm not changing it.

Also, if someone did get this role and it was functionally a Vanilla Townie, it's not technically wrong. Just some people can do this more easily than others.))

((Edit: Upon reflection I think it's probably better not to include roles that force people not to discuss certain things. So we'll make it a Named Vanilla Townie instead.))

Alien Arbitrator


Each night, you may target two players to prevent them from voting each other or targeting each other for the next Day/Night cycle.

The targets are informed that they were arbitrated and who they can't vote or target.

^ You're right, thanks. :) I think I like the Arbitrator version better, though. What color is normally used for Werewolf alignment? None of the ones in the font color box look sufficiently brown.

Town Innocent Child with a Degree of Ambiguity


At any given point during the game, you may PM the mod to reveal yourself as an
Innocent Child.

No specific alignment will be given, but you will be mod-confirmed to have the role of Innocent Child.
Your alignment is Town.
