Cow Goon
Member of a groupscum faction with no kill (but that otherwise functions like a Mafia/Werewolf faction, e.g. it has factional knowledge and communication)
If this role is rolled, during setup construction, alignments of other (randomly chosen) players are flipped to Cow until Cows make up ¼ of the playerlist (rounded to the nearest integer).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Town Reflexive Reflexifier
Anyone who targets you will become Reflexive for the night, using a copy of the same night action they target you with on anyone who targets them. (For example, if a Vigilante shoots you, they'll act as a PGO that night, additionally shooting anyone who targets them.)scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Alien Vanillaiser
Grand Idea Mafia without rerolling unbalanced roles is normally completely broken; many of the roles in the thread are unplayably overpowered. (I can see an argument for rerolling unbalanced roles but not unbalanced setups, but either way, playing an unbalanced game tends not to work so well.)scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Town Bodyguard
It might be nice to have some guidelines to, e.g., get the faction mix correct (I'm guessing something like 1 useful town power role : 2 town with no useful power role : 1 scum is correct, but who knows, it'll depend on how powerful the roles are).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Any time a player would learn the name of this role (e.g. they're a Rolecop who scanned you), that player is eliminated.

Neutral Protective-Loving Doctor
Each night, you may protect a player from one kill.
You win and leave the game if players with protective abilities have as many or more votes as players without protective abilities. You lose if this becomes impossible. (The game will not end until this has been decided one way or the other; and you do not necessarily lose if you die, although after death you'll likely be unable to influence your victory condition.)
[Mod note: if this role is rolled, add a Doctor, Bodyguard or Jailkeeper ability (chosen at random) to another player's role.]scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Town 2-shot Compulsive? Bonus Round
Twice in the game at night, you can activate your ability. This causes the next Day phase to be skipped, and scum factional kills to fail the following Night.
This ability is compulsive unless you have only one shot left (if you have only one shot left, you can choose whether or not to use the ability).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Town 4-Shot Compulsive Mass-Reloading Doctor
On four nights in the game, you may protect a player of your choice from one kill. This ability is compulsive, and must be used whenever possible.
Along with this role PM, the moderator has sent you a list of all players with X-shot abilities (including yourself), along with a 1d6-1 dice roll for each of them. (The actual abilities aren't listed, just the fact that the player has an X-shot ability.) Whenever you use your last remaining shot, each of those players regains a number of shots equal to the value of the dice roll. (As such, if your dice rolls more than a 0, you will be able to use the Doctor ability indefinitely, at the cost? of reloading other players' limited-shot abilities.)Last edited by callforjudgement on Sat Jul 06, 2019 5:23 pm, edited 1 time in total.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Replaced In Dead Thread
This is a mod note (i.e. not visible in the role PM) that gets attached to another role. Reroll to find out the role and alignment that the player will be given in their role PM. They actually have that role and alignment. However, if they die, 1-4 phases after death (chosen at random) the mod will post a message about that player being replaced. (The mod makes their own choice about who the replacement is shown as, and whether or not it's someone associated with the game. A spectator would be an obvious choice, if there is one, as they'd be in the dead thread already.)scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Informed Townie
The mod rerolls until they get an active investigative role, then simulates one use of that role's ability on a randomly chosen target, and works out what the result would be. You get that information mod-confirmed to you pregame (you don't get the actual investigative role itself).
As usual, the role PM will just be "Informed Townie" and the information, without information on how it was generated.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Bulletproof Reflexive Cult Leader
Whenever a player targets you, they become a Bulletproof Reflexive Cult Leader in the same cult as you. (You don't have an active night ability.)
As an exception, players who are a) not town, and b) not alone in their faction, will be vanillaised rather than converted.
You win when your cult can outvote all other factions.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

You'll be told the alignment of your target, but not who you targeted (which is chosen randomly by the mod). Your ability does target (even though you can't target it), so, e.g., a Tracker ability aimed at you will see who you target.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Werewolf Compulsive Ordered Repeating Motivator
On Night 1, you target the first player in the playerlist. On Night 2, you target the second player, and so on.
The effective behaviour of this power role is to add a additional Night phase immediately after each regular Night phase, on which only the targeted player can act. However, instead of actually running through both Night phases, the targeted player is informed that there might be an additional Night phase in which only they can act, and asked to send in their actions at the same time as their actions for the regular Night phase. If the action succeeds, the additional Night phase will be simulated as Instant Night.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Number Randomization
Reroll this role. When the setup is finished, randomize all numbers in all roles, rolling 1d6 for each and replacing that number with the number rolled. (For example, a Night 3 Cop might become a Night 1 Cop, a Night 2 Cop, …, a Night 6 Cop.) If the same number is used multiple times in a role PM, replace all instances of that number simultaneously, don't roll separately for each of them.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Town 1-shot Coalitioner
Once per game, you may submit a list of players whose size is equal to half the number of living players (rounded up). If all those players have a town-compatible win condition (i.e. in the absence of interference from alignment/wincon-changing roles, it's possible for that player to win and Town to also win, most likely because the player is Town), then the game ends, with Town winning and any non-Town players on the list also winning (any player off the list wins or loses depending on whether they've achieved their stated win condition). Exception: this role will always fail to no effect unless at least two players without town-compatible win conditions are alive.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Each night, choose a player. That player's alignment and win condition will be protected against changes that night (i.e. abilities that would change that player's win condition or alignment have no effect on the player, even if they succeed); additionally, you will learn whether or not that player has a third-party alignment (you won't learn which third-party/non-third-party alignment they have).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

This is completely broken; the vast majority of Grand Idea-generated setups are broken by D1 massclaim if it's known which roles exist (some may be broken like that even if it's not known which roles exist!), and in addition to causing the setup to be broken, the posted roles list will allow the players to determine whether the setup is broken and therefore whether they should massclaim.In post 6628, Irrelephant11 wrote:Town Open Setup

Reroll, alignment reversed
Seriously, though, mods need to stop playing Grand Idea without any filters on. There arewaytoo many junk or unbalanced roles in the thread at this point; pretty much the only way to use the thread is as a starting point for a setup. (Not to mention that many of the roles don't function correctly because hidden aspects of them, ranging from alignment to mod noted, are easily figured out by checking the thread; this is something that most mods are likely to miss.)scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

You don't know which of your three Cop actions is which (they appear as "Cop A", "Cop B", "Cop C" with the correspondence with sanities randomized). All you know is that one of your investigations is Sane (a normal Cop returning Town-compatible or anti-Town), one is Naive (always returns Town-compatible), one is Paranoid (always returns anti-Town).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Town 1-shot Combined Vigilante Janitor Coroner
Once in the game at night, you can kill a player. If the kill succeeds, that player's flip will be hidden from players in general, but you will be able to see it (i.e. if the kill succeeds, you learn what your target's role and alignment was). When you learn a player's flip privately via this means, the flip cannot be tampered with (e.g. by roles like Death Miller).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

You are apparently a member of the Mafia (with PT access, a say in the nightkill, etc., and the other Mafia think you have the normal Mafia win condition), but have a different win condition: "You win if at least half the players in the Mafia PT are still alive on Night [4 for a Micro, 5 for a Mini, 6 for a Large], and lose if more than half of those players die by that point". If you win or lose while alive and the game is still ongoing, you leave the game and a randomly chosen Mafia member becomes a secret doublevoter (i.e. able to cast an anonymous second vote by PM).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Each night, choose a player and specify a role. If the chosen player has the chosen roleandis town-aligned, you will learn the fact. In any other case (target is scum, target doesn't have the specified role, your action gets blocked), your action will fail and you will learn nothing as a result (you cannot distinguish between the three failure cases).scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Bulletproof Reflexive Quitter(alignment chosen by moderator).
You cannot be killed by other players overnight. However, if any non-killing action succeeds on you overnight, that causes you to leave the game (the equivalent of dying).
Something quite similar to this got posted in the Worst Roles thread a while ago, but it really isn't as Worst as most of them are.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Each night, you may target a player. That player will appear, on Tracker-like investigations, to have targeted you (even though the actual target of their ability, if any, won't have changed). If that player has an investigative role, it will return the result that is as favourable as possible to its actual target, regardless of whether that result is correct or not.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Each night, you may PM the moderator a prediction as to the following day's lynch (or a prediction that the following day will not have a lynch).
Each night, if you made a correct prediction the previous night, you may kill a player. This kill is independent of any other killing abilities you might have access to, and can multitask with other abilities.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Mafia with a factional ability
Reroll until you find a role with an active, targeted night ability. That ability becomes a factional ability for your entire faction, rather than something belonging to you personally (i.e. it causes the Mafia to have additional abilities this game above what they would normally have). Just like the factional kill, only one Mafia member can activate it each Night.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

Another player in the setup (chosen randomly) gets the ability to choose, each Night and pregame, whether you will be a Supersaint the following Day, or a Vigilante the following Night. If they die, the choice becomes locked in place. You will always be aware of which of the two roles you have.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement
