You are
the Master
. Due to the unnerving sound of your own heartbeat, you are forced to post exactly 4 paragraphs in each of your posts. Once per turn, during the night, you can convert a player. Converted players lose their former winning condition (but not their role powers if they have any) and are informed of their conversion, but not that you converted them. Converted players cannot win at ALL. If you die, all converted players turn back to normal. You win if you are alive and everybody else has been converted.

This role is awesome. If they know that if they kill the master, they will go back to normal, I think that would add a extra layer to the game. Maybe the master should be able to convert 2 people a night. (naturally, remove the 4 pagraphs restriction)

You are Gregory House. Lisa Cuddy will select you a patient to treat in the clinic every night-phase. You will passively protect this player and forgo your own interests. At night, you may inspect another player to discover their alignment. On even-numbered nights, if your patient is to be killed, you will save them from death instead of inspecting your target. On odd-numbered nights, if your patient is killed, you will sink into depression from failure and become useless.
Should be in the good role thread.

You are
superscum
. You can kill up 12 players each night. You have 2 votes (one is secret) Yeah, there's only 13 players in this game. You win when you're the last one standing. Have fun and don't get lynched D1.

Mod note: the other 12 players are all bulletproof PGOs.

That game would be interesting to read. Superscum would be excited to get that role, but once the PGOs start claiming, he'll go oh crap, I'm a kill-less doublevoting serial killer.

You're an
annoying nobody
.

You know that the mod has some secret aspect of your role that you don't know about. You can try submitting targets for night actions or day actions, who knows what you can do?

You win with the town.


Modnote: Every time this player PMs the mod, the win condition is changed randomly between Town, Mafia, and Self-Aligned. The player is not informed of this. There is no night action whatsover. If at any time, this player targets himself within a PM, his alignment is changed to Self-Aligned, and he dies. The same is true if the mod is targeted.

Oui yna yh

Oui feh fedr dra dufh. Yht luhknydc uh pnaygehk drec luta.


MODNOTE: the role, when decoded says:

You are an
UBER codebreaker
.

You can PM me at any time saying "I BROKE THE CODE!". If you do, you learn one Mafia member chosen at random. You also get an One-Shot DayVig ability, along with a bulletproof vest.

You win with the town. And congrats on breaking this code.
------------------
An even worse role would be the annoying nobody role pm, sent in code. "What is my role?" BAM alignment change.

"you have been created from data that was never meant to be used. ......"

"you win when you erase the game and everyone's save files."

"Screams scream......."

I cant read the parts in the "....." sections.

When someone targets you for an ability or kill, it fails and they get stuck.

If they are stuck, they must use the same ability on you again to get unstuck.

Players cannot be stuck more then once.

The 2nd time an ability is used, it will have the appropriate effect on the MAPLE SYRUP.

You win with the MAFIA.

Once in the game, night or day, you can cause a player who is not a member of your faction to immediately win the game.

Modification- send them a pm during the night, be offered the choice to immediately win or to decline. After the choice is made, it's up to the briber whether to deliver or not.

More like a real bribe.

You already know who pretty much all of the mafia are, but you don't have enough evidence to bust them. And of course, you're not allowed to share any of your information with the general public - you can only discuss it with your partner, XXX, who is under the same restriction.

You win when all the mafia and their associates are all safely locked up; if anybody dies, you'll lose and be under investigation for years.
and you have to prevent all lynches, because it is a unlawful form of vigilantism.

Stolen from the fake modding thread:

You are wearing the nuclear device. You blow up night three unless you are defused. Yes, even if you are dead. If you claim this as your role, or breadcrumb it or ANY OTHER method of letting players know about this, the terrorists will detonate you. You lose if you explode, along with every other player, and all players in this game cannot play in any other mafia game ever due to irradiation. You don't have a win condition also.

Related role:

You are the nuclear specialist. You know that there is a nuclear device strapped to somebody in this game. Bad things happens if he blows up. Each day, pm me a name. You will check that player and attempt to defuse him immediately after the lynch. Unfortunately, you just graduated college, and you were not really paying attention in that class. You only have a 10% chance of success. You win with the town.

The version where the power of the town role has to live for the town to win is just horroble for the rest of the town, because you could hypothetically get a shit player in that 1 slot and utterly torpedo the town.

I think that if you make the role be a town aligned survivor- has to be alive to win, but town doesnt need it alive to win nicely sidesteps the issue. But that ends up relying rather a lot on the "play to win" rule and the "dont be a jerk" implict contract.

Giving scum x vengekills is pretty brutal though. Lets say a 9p game with 2 scum? Assume d1 mislynch then d2 correct lynch- thats 5 dead guys by d3 starting. Chances the PoT player is alive for that? Not that great, espically if he had any sort of a hand in the correct lynch.

Given this, i'd think the optimal play is as a survivor and just try and lurk the day away

alternatively, be a lurksac, and slowly build up votes, while never voting for the one-shot on the next day.
