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)
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
Poll
What is your favorite role mentioned in this thread?
I'm not sure if this is the case in game, but when reviewing a game the seer's message is shown as "You suddenly experience a moment of prescience. You feel that thedaniman, Boxness, barkborkyip are the *mafiaundefined*"
I keep thinking of roles and then wondering; is this already a thing?
I think a bombsmith would be a good role, but I'm not sure if it already exists lol Similar to a blacksmith they give out vests - turning the receiver into a bomb.
no worries, i can take it. projection of anger onto an authority figure, i totally get it
hey, so i was talking with golbolco, and i think reworking the inventory system so guns don't stack and you can select which gun you want to use (or throw away) might be a needed feature before introducing gunslinger and sharpshooter. also, people will have to explicitly use their items before the day/night ends, but if kicked, they will still be in the game without the item being used
I really don't get why there is too many people being aggressive here... Like Lucid is back and is bringing updates to the game, why is everyone so salty/angry at the new roles or not having your roles being selected?
Aw, this kind of answers my question as to why it isn't in Comp. There should be a role, similar to Invisible Man, that doesn't choose who they visit - they automatically just attend the Mafia meetings every night (although they can't talk / see who the Mafia are as they appear anon).
