I assume it'd be used in a game with reflexive roles.
I am in the bottom 10% of scumhunters onsite!

You are a
Vanilla Reflexive Power Role


If someone targets you with an ability that does nothing, instead they target themselves

They will not be informed of this

You are a
Reflexive Cult Recruiter
. If someone targets you with any ability, that ability does not happen, but they are instead recruited into your cult.

You win when your cult controls 50% of the vote.

You could actually get that role in one of the no-balance Xylbot setups (Black Goo Action-Immune Townie).

I'll co-mod. I haven't run anything in about a year, which seems roughly appropriate for that kind of game.

I've played in two of them. They were a blast, and also very funny.

I have also been involved in two of them. One was pretty stressful and the other one was bullshit. >_>

The pretty stressful one was my game. The "bullshit" one wasn't really that bad, but I was essentially vanilla. The game itself was pretty well made.

You are a SECURITY GAURD

Select 1 player. Each night, if anyone visits your target, you can allow or deny them access.

They will be informed that their role failed, but not why.

For that to work you'd need to know who's visiting them. Seems like an awesome role, part Watcher and part Roleblocker.

You are the
One shot facebooker!
Once per night, you can go online and find out what someone is doing on your friends list. But wait! Because you spend your whole life on facebook, you are your only friend. You win when someone adds you to their friends list or all the mafia die.

You are the

I think there was an entire game that has to be typed in text format.
