Summary: You are a talented recorder who records everything done to a person.

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique Role: No

Coven Exclusive? No

Priority: 4 ​​​​​​​Should be 6 (Same as spy's bug.)

Abilities: Select a person to watch over each night. You will reveal all actions against that person during the day.

Attributes: In the day, all actions against your certain target are revealed to the Town. You will see all actions regardless if they are Astral or not. You will not reveal any seen actions if you are killed the same night. Ok.

Mechanics: All actions, such as investigating, protecting, attacking, interrogating, roleblocking, hexing, dousing, EVERYTHING, will be seen. You only receive select messages depending on the roles who visit. '''They are revealed to the town during the day, every single message. '''That would just auto-confirm this role.

Sheriff: Your target is not suspicious.

Investigator: Your target could be a Lookout, Forger, Overseer, or Witch/Coven Leader.

Consigliere: Your target carefully tracks everything done to their target. They must be an Overseer.

Goal: Lynch every criminal and evildoer.

Wins with: Normal Town win conditions.

Must kill: Normal Town conditions.

Messages received:

Your target was checked for a clue to their possible role.

(Sheriff, Investigator, Consigliere, Vampire Hunter, Potion Master reveal)''' That would screw over TI's as their job is to get information. With you revealing that they exist, Evil roles will be on the hunt for these roles.'''

Your target was carefully protected.

(Lookout, Bodyguard, Crusader, Doctor, Trapper (placing a trap) Potion Master (healing) Guardian Angel (protecting/purging) That would screw over Tp's, especially doctor.

Your target was unable to do their nightly action, somone occupied them.

(Escort/Consort) Ok.

Your target was attacked by someone!

(every single role that can attack, including VH staking a Vampire, Vamps attacking Mafia/Coven ect., AND including rampage stuff. Jailor is excluded)

Your target was swapped with someone else.

(Transported, you will see actions against the target who was switched)

Your target was doused in gasoline!/Your target cleaned themselves of gasoline!

(Arsonist douse/arsonist clean) Ok.

Your target decided to protect themselves from anything.

(BG/Doc/Survivor self vesting/healing) That would confirm that role too easily.

Your target was bitten and turned into a Vampire!

(Vampire successful conversion) Vampires already are screwed by VH, we don't need this.

'''Your target was forced to withstand a dreadful curse. They must be hexed!'''

(Hex Masters hex)

Your target was turned to stone!

(Medusas stone gaze)

Your target was forcefully controlled into someone else!

(Witch/CL) Ok.

'''Your target could not withstand their own guilt. They killed themselves!'''

(Jester/Vigi suicide/leaving game?) ​​​​​​You can't target someone who left anyway.

Your target engaged in a melee fight!

(Pirate plundering or the pirate themselves)

Your target was attacked but was nursed back to life!

(Doctor/Potion Master) Thanks for narrowing down who the TP is, and then revealing it to the damn town.

Your target was attacked but someone protected them against the attacker!

(Crusader/Bodyguard)

'''A trap was placed at your target's house. You foolishly stepped in it!/A trap saved your target from an attacker!'''

(Trapper setting a trap and saving someone)

Your target was made unrecognizable by someone!

(Janitor clean)

Someone is now appearing as your target!

(Disguiser disguising as your target) Disguiser is underpowered already.

I didn't see much use of the bug ability on the Spy and thought that a role designed to replace it would fit much better, since Spy usually gets all they can see from visits and can really only confirm which roles were visited and can confirm an Arsonist cleaning themselves. So make one that auto confirms itself, reveals TP's to everyone w/o much effort, etc.

This might take a little while to code because of the messages, but let's get some reviewing first. While this is a very interesting role, it auto confirms itself and is just a different varient of the Spy. I don't see the purpose of this role, I think Spy does it better (In terms of balance, in terms of abilities Overseer > Spy's bugging.) because it's more fun and actually doesnt auto-confirm itself.
