New Roles

JonSnowalmost 8 years ago

Hello everyone! I would like to ask the people who are interested in this event to participate and contribute as much as possible.

In order for 2 new roles to be added to em, the community has to work together to refine the ideas that are going to be mentioned below. We have to collectively select 2 of the best ideas and make sure their version is the best one possible. The next step would be to come up with some sort of artwork for the selected roles. Lucid mentioned something about rewarding the users behind the artwork that would get selected in the end for those 2 roles.

Jack the Ripper (originally Hypocrite)

  • Jack the Ripper hates anyone who kills.
  • Jack the Ripper only wins when the game ends and all murderers are dead.
  • If Jack the Ripper receives a gun or knife and kills someone with it, he will not consider himself a murderer.
  • To Jack the Ripper, murderers are killing roles or any other player that has successfully eliminated someone else (shot, stabbed, blown up, etc.)
  • If a player survives one of these actions, Jack the Ripper will not consider the attacker a murderer. (~Jennings)

Cat Lady

  • Chooses one player every night. The player is instantly alerted that a cat is at their door. They have two options: Kill the cat, and let it go. If you kill the cat, you are roleblocked and the Cat Lady doesn't know who was visited. If you let it go, the Cat Lady learns your role.
  • Sided with the mafia. (~Her)

Robinhood

  • Visits two people, taking all items from the first and giving them to the second (cannot visit self either way)
  • Action fails if trying to steal from a mafia
  • Sided with the village (~Torreador)

Vice President

  • If the president dies, takes their place
  • All townies immediately receive a message of their new president
  • Attends mafia meetings, and makes them anonymous
  • Cannot win if they are the vice president (~Alyssa)

Gossiper

  • Chooses one person every night.
  • Will see some whispers this person receives/makes.
  • Gossiper's action does not count as a visit.
  • Sided with the mafia. (~Soluciones)

(revising) the Seer

  • Knows all mafia from the beginning of the game.
  • If lynched at the end of the game, the last mafia can guess who the Seer is for autowin.
  • If the Seer dies, they will appear as a random (non-mafia) role in the setup and their will will always be blank. If dead, the mafia can still attempt a guess to the Seer's identity at the end of the game.
  • If there are multiple Seers in a game, only one Seer will know the mafia at any given time.
  • If there are two mafias and multiple Seers, the knowledge of the mafias will be split between them.
  • Sided with the village. (~Shwartz99)

Whistleblower

  • Once per game can force someone to vote someone else. Vote cannot be OT'D if it is a hammer. Sided with maf (Will create more tension in selfing/hammering based setups (~Moldyches)

Soldier

  • If they are the last man standing against a single mafia or third party, the village wins.
  • Sided with the village. (~XFire)

PowerTown

  • Each night chooses a power role from the options provided to him. (the mods should determine the list)
  • Night meeting goes accordingly
  • Sided with the village

PowerMafia

  • Each night chooses a mafia role from the list.
  • Night meeting goes accordingly
  • Sided with the mafia

seconding that seer is broken. Would be much better if they can be guessed when last mafia is shot. As yah, bs, doc etc can protect sheriff or gunned player til last day.
I feel like that would leave the seer so weak. If you feel you must use a gun in the setup, then gunsmith is neat because mafia could end up gunned. I like that there's at least some way mafia doesn't get a chance to guess for autowin. There are plenty of different roles to use other than the ones people say will exploit it. I mean, you can say that about ANY role with the right combination of roles.
Maybe it should just be the Sheriff shot that allows Mafia to guess the Seer as currently if both Sheriff/Seer out day one (with a blacksmith/doc or such) then it is autowin for Town as they can just lynch all the Mafia and shoot the last one.

I love that you're working on the Medium, also the Seer role can be exploited at the moment - so the last Mafia should have a chance to guess the Seer whether they are lynched or not, as Sheriff/Seer can just out D1 of any setup with Blacksmith and lynch the Mafia/shoot the last Maf.
thanks! it'll take some reworking of the graveyard, what they are able to see.

i just added priority to the meetings, so the order is Banquet, Cell, Jail, then Dungeon. The former overrides the latter

let me know if anything broke, as usual

It wont work with 2 meetings.

If the town jailer decide to kill the target but the mafia jailer decides to save him?

If both pick to die, they will defend each other's kills because jailer also blocks the kill.
adminalmost 8 years ago
Ohh lol yea I can
Shwartz99almost 8 years ago

adminalmost 8 years ago

Imagine being silenced while being able to see the rest of the chat, so it looks normal to you. But to others, they can't see your chat. That would be fkn hilarious to see.

hmm, if jailkeep, jailer, and dungeon all invite the same person, which place should that person end up?
i played a game in which jailer and jail keep visited the same person. that person was in 2 meetings at the same time. similar to how party host works, and mafia has 2 separate talking meetings at night.
oh ok, i'll need to fix that with a meeting priority system. it'll prob be something like cell, jail, dungeon, and then banquet

I think the Jailkeep moves at night, no? It's not like the Jailer where they get to meet with the prisoner.
xxeroxalmost 8 years agoedited
they said: make a decision and stick to that priority.

So pick which role to jail and the other 2 will be blocked and won't jail anyone that night.

i will ask my friends from the mafia community.

do we have action ranking?

Every mafia site uses a system of who gets to do first in what order. it is really a Must Have for any mafia site.

if we have one then the question you asked can be easilly answered.

nice! saved it on my desktop, thank you!
Everyone else can also add things if they want. If it appeals to me, it doesnt meant it does for everyone else.
