Mafia JOAT


Reroll 5 times. You gain a 1-shot ability of each roll.
Clarifications:
Factional abilities are not inherited
If any vanilla is rolled, that shot is forfeited (So rolling VT 5 times essentially makes you a JOAT with no abilities)
Any passive abilities become active
If a role allows multiple choices (e.g. another JOAT), you can use any of the abilities, but one time abilities. For example, if you roll #1348, for that shot you can choose to be a Doctor, Roleblocker or Jailkeeper, but once per game only.

Town Dead


You start the game dead but can submit a PM to mod on any night to come back to life the next day. You will flip alignment and role as if you were janitored when you die night zero.

Troll Living Under The Bridge SK


You are Lordo, a giant troll who lives under the bridge between Umore and Astuto. Your only concern with the deaths in town is that people will be more vigilant, and thus harder for you to catch and eat. Pregame, designate whether each player is from Astuto or Umore (in a message to the mod.) Any player targeting someone from the other village will have to cross your bridge to do so. Each night, the mod will send you a list of the people that cross your bridge, and you may select one to kill and eat. It is imperative that you are quick with your night choices, as the mod can only send you your list once they have the night choices from everyone else. As an incentive to do so, you will be given free reprieve from a nightkill attempt on your life.

Charlemagne
(747 - 814), King of the Franks.

In order to enforce the king's justice, you have founded
The Vehmgericht
, a secret tribunal consisting of three members. On night one, you must select three players (other than yourself) to be the members of the Vehm. These three players will, from that point on, be able to communicate in secret, and have the power to decide on a night kill. As long as you are alive, you may appoint replacements for dead members of the tribunal. The Vehmgericht will live on even if you die, and will only cease to function when all three members of the tribunal are dead.

Players recruited for the Vehm will recieve this PM:
You have been nominated to
The Vehmgericht
, a secret tribunal with the power to execute one player each night. The other members of the Vehm are XXXX and YYYY. You may now night talk with those players, though you have no information about their role or alignment, and the three of you must agree (by majority vote) on a player to execute. Additionally, you must agree on a single member of the Vehm to carry out the sentence, and this player will not be able to use any other night abilities on the same night.


Best New Role 2009. Wins with the town.

Third Party Prismar


Whenever a nontown entity targets you with a kill, it fails, and a random VT becomes a one shot vig.
Whenever a nontown entity targets you with a protect, it fails, and a random VT becomes a one shot doctor.
The same is true for Jailkeeper, Roleblocker, Cop, and Hider.

You have a night kill.

You win when you are the last player alive or nothing can prevent the same.

Alien Hated Bulletproof Ascetic Triplet Voter Voyeur

You possess the following abilities:
  • Hated - It takes one less vote to lynch you. (Does not apply in LyLo or MyLo.)
  • Bulletproof - You are immune to all kills.
  • Ascetic - You cannot be targeted by another player.
  • Triplet Voter - You possess 3 votes that are each worth 1/3 of a vote. (The lynch threshold is not changed, and the vote weights should be properly indicated in the votecount.)
  • Voyeur - Each night, you may target a player to learn what type of actions targeted that player that night.

Jester Restricted Quintuplevoter

You possess 5 votes, each one worth a full vote (moderators should adjust the lynch threshold appropriately); however, you may
not
ever vote yourself with any of your votes.

The first time you self-vote (if it is not a hammer), it is a private warning.
The second time you self-vote (or if you self-hammer or are hammered while you are still voting yourself),
you
will
be
modkilled
.

Scum Merger


You initially start in a faction of one. However, you can recruit more members over time

Pregame, and each night thereafter, you can target a player. If that player is town, nothing happens. If that player is anti-town, your faction and their faction merge; you and everyone else in your faction gain any private topic access that players in their faction have, and vice versa, factional abilities are combined or merged if similar (i.e. if you currently have a 1-shot factional nightkill and the other faction has an unlimited-shot factional nightkill, the result is an (unlimited+1) (i.e. unlimited)-shot factional nightkill, you can't kill two people on the same night). The players in question keep their win condition, but any mention of the player's own faction or its complement is adjusted (e.g. if the Mafia and Aliens merge, then "You win once every non-Mafia is dead or nothing can prevent the same" becomes "You win once every non-Mafia non-Alien is dead or nothing can prevent the same, etc.".

In order to win, you must merge yourself into one or more anti-town factions and have at least one other player in your newly merged faction fulfil their win condition.

Mod note: it's hideously unlikely the dice would roll that way, but do not let more than one player get this role, as it causes the win condition to become circularly defined.

Town Léon Prunelle

You're a VT with a post restriction of having to say "ROGNTUDJU" (in all-caps, with a variable amount of Us at the end) in any post where you cast a vote.

Hated townie with potential

Fuck them haters. They're just jelly because YOU, are bound for GREATNESS.

This
game, you are a
hated townie
.
You have no special abilities. You require one less vote to lynch.

The
next
*
game however, you are a
multi-tasking jack-of-all-trades
(1-shot cop; 1-shot rolecop; 1-shot vigilante)
Each night, you can do any combination of the following abilites, provided you have shots left:
- Investigate the alignment of a player;
- Investigate the role of a player;
- Kill a player.

*
The next Grand Idea mafia you will play. This will override the role you'd be normally given (just show the mod this role). You cannot take a rain check, if you choose to take your normally given role anyway, you will forfeit your option to use the
multi-tasking jack-of-all-trades
.

Pure vanilla townie

For all intents and purposes, you are a vanilla townie, except you have protection from abilities which will permanently alter your role in any way.
This includes (but is not limited to):
- You can not gain any permanent abilities through any means.
- You can not gain any modifiers through any means.
- You can not (further) be vanillaised (i.e. you can not lose this protection).
- You can not be recruited.
- You can not be turned into a treestump.
- You can not re-roll your role through any means.
In short, any abilities that would make you anything else than a
pure vanilla townie
, will fail to work. You can however, be the receiver of temporary effects.

Platinum townie

As long as your alive, your faction can't lose the game, and other factions can't win the game.

Comment

This won't result in an draw, instead, when normally the game would end (like when mafia matches or outnumbers town), the game continues, until the
platinum townie
is dead, or town wins. This will be fun for jesters.

Eternal vendetta
(alignment up to mod's discretion)
Choose your archnemesis (or don't, if you'd rather be vanilla).
In this game, and
every
future grand idea mafia game you play together, both you and your chosen archnemesis will get a 1-shot gladiator ability, which can only involve you two. This is in addition to the actual role both of you get in future games.
Edit:
your chosen archnemesis must accept you as his or her archnemesis as well. If he or she doesn't, you can choose someone else.
