 Summary : You are an evil sorcerer with the gift of powerful magic.

 Abilities : You may use a spell on a player each night. {...a Potion Master?}

 Attributes :

-You can choose to use a Fireball or Weaken spell towards a target.

-You have a mystical barrier that Heals you once.

-Veil spell will restore your healing barrier.

 Goal : Kill all who would oppose you.

{All of this seems good so far}

Mechanics of spells: you can choose one of the spells available each night to use against a player.

(Offensive)  Fireball : Delivers Basic attacks towards a player (and possibly 1 other person who visits that player.) (No cool down.)

(Defensive)  Veil : You restore your healing barrier. You will also appear as innocent to  for two nights. '''(Cool down is 2 nights.) {I like this idea, but as I stated earlier, this needs to have some sort of defense because it is a Neutral Killing. Perhaps it can lose its Defense like a Witch?}'''

(Support)  Weaken : You weaken a players defenses by 1. (Cool down is 2 nights.) possible day ability (This does not work against Invincible defense) {To you, or to other killers as well?}


 * Your target is suspicious.


 * ,, / or  Sorcerer  {1-1-1-1. That makes it a little hard for Sorcerer to claim.}

/: your target wields mystical powers. They must be a Sorcerer.

Extras:

-This seems to OP, I will be changing some things i don't like when i find them.

-Must kill ,, , , , , , and.

-Win with, , , , , and. (some of these are coven roles incase they are carried on to another expansion minus the actual coven)

''-Using Veil twice may grant you an Astral Visit for one night. ''(Idea...)

-Weakening someones defense is temporary and all defenses will be reset once the sorcerer is dead {Yes} or has weakened someone else '''{No. The weakening spell already has a cooldown, and this would make the spell all but useless.}'''.

-When attacked, instead of saying you are too strong, it will say you were healed.

.

Overall, this seems like a really exciting role! Not only is it balanced (imo), but it looks like it would be a lot of fun to play as.

One thing I would suggest is that it has Basic Defense to start off (it is Neutral Killing, after all) and it can lose the defense like a Witch. Once it loses Basic Defense, the cooldown of the spell begins (ex. the spell isn't available until ~2 days after you get attacked).
