@Clock18c, I define "PR" as all roles except Blues, Millers, Gallis, Turncoats, Traitors and Suspects. So yes, "PR"= role with night action, kinda.

Do you define "PR" as a role who has a night action?

@baconboy: Interesting idea. But as I've said before, I'm rather reluctant of turning this role into a converter role.

@aw168: EVIL I SAY!

@syd29: This has actually been a big topic of discussion. But I still stand firm with my decision that Nillas shouldn't be counted as NON-PRs, for several reasons. Although, suggestions are welcome.

@Emeralds: Then you are fucked.

why is nilla not a non-pr? If this is third party then it should do to the scum the same as it does to the town. Otherwise this is a town-role.

i like the idea of it turns people into millers.. In the eyes of the oppressive police all followers of communist are evil. I also think that granny, fool or lyncher should get consideration as non-PR. C'est la lutte finale!

Tbh imperium3, the whole "convert-to-blue" concept does actually sound pretty neat. Definitely feeds into the whole idea of what a revolutionary communist should be like. However, the reason I have chosen not to implement converting-abilites before is because I feel that this role then would become too much of a "Cultist", as u also stated. I will have to think about it.

I do like this role, but perhaps the night visit should be that he turns the visitee into a blue (or perhaps miller to spice things up). Or even a fellow communist, though that gets to be too much like cult. As a balancing factor, this should probably include mafia. And of course the visit is susceptible to shrink/samurai/granny etc.

So the communist's goal would be to convert enough blues that he can rally them to vote out the remaining PRs and mafia.

Yeah thx for the feedback BobSmith. Right now his messages thing works like a split between agent/spy and towncrier. Only difference apart from towncrier's ability is that the messages only goes to NON-PRs (e.i not to everyone).
Also the reason why I took a detective ability instead of a block ability is because this way Town/Mafia can use him as a information source - IF they can trust him that is. (perhaps he is just manipulating both sides to get them killed.

Messages should either be the same as agent/spy or different to both them and crier. The whole point of crier is that it is 100% clear (and doesn't have to reveal themselves). As for night action, I'm not sure what would be best, either drunking or detting sounds like it could work.

Lastly, should I just turn his a "anonymous messages" part into a Gray/Town Crier one?

Furthermore, there is a role called "FBI-Agent" [ http://www.epicmafia.com/role/702 ] with the ability to investigate thirdparty-roles, which would act as a quite nice counter-role to the Communist. Although, in my oppinion, it should be made regardless of the implementation of this role.

Slightly reworked the "anonymous messages" part.

Instead of writing individual messages to each of the NON-PRs the Communist can only write anonymous messages to ALL NON-PRs at the SAME TIME.

This change will act to lessen the time the Communist will have to rewrite everything he said to each person. In turn, making it easier for him to take part in the actual open game discussion (making him harder to spot at a "lurker") and at the same time allowing the Communist to instantaneously reach ALL NON-PRs with important information at will.


@blade12344: The Communist will appear as village sided if investigated by sane cop.
