riight

Attack: None

Defense: Basic (Like witches barrier, only for 1 attack, I added this instead of a vest bc it will give immune evils more claimspace if attacked)

'''but.. isnt this literally the exact same thing as a vest?'''

Ability: Freshen someone each night

'''freshen? oh well, I like how simple the ability is, it would fit on the role card and new players will understand this'''

Attributes: If your Target hasn’t any negative debuff given to them for that night, you will attack the debuffer, you will not remove your targets debuff though, If you kill the debuffer, you will die too

'''right. what exactly is a debuff though? I'm guessing poisoner, arso maybe, etc..?'''

Mechanics: Example: (Bmer BMs A, Mermaid is watching over A, but A would still be bmed, but the BMer would die that night)

'''Right. so it can still kill.'''

Negative Debuffs does not include killing Negative debuffs include, Rbing,Bmimg,Dousing,Ignition(Of Arso), Controlling, Vampire Bites, Pirating, Plague, TRansing (Ik this shouldn’t be considered a negative debuff but someone needs to nerf town)

'''vampire bites? im guessing you could only help that person the very night. same with plundering'''

Invest: Doc,Disg,Sk,PM,Mermaid (trying to save doc)

2-1-0-1. Not bad.

Sheriff: Your Target is Not Suspicious

mhm

...

where is the consig result?

Goal: Lynch every criminal and evildoer ^^^ I just realized, the goal says to lynch EVERY criminal and evildoer, but what if there’s a witch that’s alive, but the last mafia dies, why does the game end? :thinking:

Messages: Private: You have died protecting your Target! Your Target was under watch from Mermaid! You have died! Public: She/He was killed protecting their target She/He was killed by a Mermaid. alright Main points:

+This is original. It introduces a new ability, which is great, and the ability its self makes sense and all

++I can also appreciate the simplicity of this role. It has no rng mechanics, it has a nice, simple ability which is great for new players and shows that this is a decent role, at the very least.

-Kind of UP. The role is pretty weak, though not too much. I small buff would be enough and this would be a totally viable role. I've got to say, overall you have quite a good role. One thing I'd recommend besides making it more powerful is maybe change the name to something that actually has to do with getting rid of debuffs. not bad though :P

Overall, I'd give this a

yeah sure/10

Just remember that it really isn't easy to get your role to be approved my many, so if it doesn't get into the game, don't be too discouraged because very few actually do. Even with that I have to say that your idea is better than quite a lot of the roles out there :P

If you haven't already, please take a look at this page, it helps a lot when creating roles: http://town-of-salem.wikia.com/wiki/Making_New_Roles
