Ig: Those are called Trackers. Although, I've never seen or heard of a Mafia or Mason Tracker.

You are Mod Notes Attacher. You win with the scum. Your scumbuddies are x and y. Every night you will be sent a role made by the rolemaker, whose role pm is as follows:

You may attach mod notes to his roles. For instance, if he makes a cop, you may make it naive or paranoid.

Schizo
*A Good Role in the same way Insane Cop is*

You are told you are scum/town

If you are scum you get to involve in night sessions etc

If you are town you are a vanilla as normal

You are not told you are schizo

If you are are told you are town (you are really scum) and vica-versa.

Well?

A SK Trainer who wins with the cult? That's nigh-impossible to balance.

And who do Zombies win with? And can they talk with the cult? And do they know who's in the cult? There's plenty of problems left to resolve with this. (Besides the group of people who hate "chance" actions - your 50% chance of being counterkilled.)

Wide Net Cop


Name three other players, and i will tell you how many scum there are in that group.

Ed: Just realised that this is game-breaking if the answer is 'none.' Darn.
How 'bout something really similar:
Connection Cop


Target any two living players, other than yourself. I will tell you if they share an alignment/win condition.
