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.

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.
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)

Night meeting goes accordingly

What is your favorite role mentioned in this thread?
I don't think you can use it on mafia but yes I just played a game where there was no gun d1 but 2 players got gunned d2 (there was one gs in the setup) so it works.
I think it gives town a chance to do some more predicting and planning. The whole point is to reduce Town's chance of hitting mafia from for example 2(gun + lynch) to just 1(the gun). Abd maybe it would open up some new doors we haven't seen yet - like town hiding the gun/ gs not outing the gunned untill it's necessary, idk.
It also forbids the town from risky plays that can be really bad for mafia if they play out but have no effect on town if they don't Also if you have 2 cop (example) claims you can't just shoot one lynch the other, you have to do some good reading.
Queen bee looks like it will create full of bugs And the description is not really clear Like if queen bee visits cop n1 but not n2. Does that mean the cop gets 2 reports n2???
Sweetness, imo make it auto tell you your role mechanic at the begging of every game, but also let us use the /role function, so when someone claims or says a role, we can look it up.
.In the morning the Photographer takes a photo of a deceased town member in the cemetery and share the photo with someone. .If the role selected was a town role, then at night the person who received the photo will discover which person the photo shows. .Then they can change or not their role to the deceased member's role if they are a town member. .Sided with village.
While we're on this topic... not to derail or anything, but add who left and joined a game in the pre-game, add a sysmsg for agent/spy telling them all the roles, a /rehost command to rehost a game, and a /games command to show what games are active in the lobby. Just look at EMjack's source code.
