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

lucid i'd be much obliged if you allowed the "Tile background", "Center background", "Fix background", and "Stretch background" options could be used for lobby and family background too!

i also think lovers should be reworked in the GY game so if they end up in the same plane, they will win (both in the graveyard or underworld, or living)
adminover 7 years ago
ok, i think i have another great idea. there should be a graveyard "hanging" mode, where every night in the graveyard, someone can be exorcised to the underworld

I can build a mafia sided resurrectionist and exorcist as well, if anyone can supply name suggestions and artwork!
I guess mafia sided resurrectionist could be Necromancer

And for exorcist I guess you could rename it to something like Ghost hunter if you don't like Ghostbuster, idk.
thank you! i'll send you some tokens later today
fnusjiandkas EXCUSE ME WHERE ARE MY TOKENS

ghosthunter sounds good as well! ok, final three roles will probably be ghost, poltergiest, and the mourner (which is quite difficult to code)

the quality still looks the same to me after testing it on my alt -- i think making the default png would help a lot

do u think making profile pictures higher quality would be possible instead of uploading the picture and it immediately becoming potato quality

also allowing us to center align things on profiles and forum posts would be amazing but im technology challenged and idk how possible that is...
anything is possible, given enough time

yea sure, i've upped the quality a bit (i think), let me know if it works or not. otherwise i'll try to make png the new image default (and try to add gif uploading too)

i tried to remake my vengeful spirit icon:

i also tried to remake my ghost one (or whatever i called it):
adminover 7 years ago
was the role that can only roleblock once dead named ghost and poltergiest? i think those two are must builds as well!
adminover 7 years ago
i'm also down to add the sales person suggestion (clone of cat lady except visit is to a random player)

i'll try to tackle troublemaker later today, that role will be kind of tricky to code

if it still hasn't been done yet make it so you can choose between making 25 player or 50 player anon decks
