mime sounds like it'd be neutral but ok

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique: Yes

Summary: You are a clown skilled at mimicking others working for the mafia.

Abilities:

- Use your copied abilities onto someone else.

c o p y c a t    i s    t h a t    y o u 

Attributes:

- None

at least it'll fit on the role card

Mechanics:

- When you watch a player, you will know what happens to them.

y tho

- You will copy whatever happens to them and use it on someone else the next night.

so, do you always use both abilities or..?

- You may not copy any mafia kills.

makes sense

- If your target was transported or witched, once you target someone else they will be witched into/transed with a random player.

sounds confusing but ok

- If your target loses a duel to the pirate, you will deal a Powerful attack to your next target.

why

Investigative Results:

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the Mafia!

good start

Investigator: Your target could be a Your target could be a Spy, Blackmailer, Jailor, Guardian Angel, or Mime.

2-2-0-1. Balanced enough

Consigliere: Your target copies the actions of others. They must be a Mime!

'''Really basic. You can do better than this :D'''

Notes:

- If you watch someone killed by any killer other than the Mafia, you will attack your next target.

so you won't use the ability?

- Watching a jailed person will fail, and you will not copy a pirate's role-block.

okay Main points:

+Overall, the role is pretty balanced, which is nice. It has potential, and is strong enough, but that's quite fitting for a mafia role, so kudos for that, though this role could easily find the NK.

--Copycat - Any role that uses other role's night abilities. This can also have similar qualities to Amnesiac. A direct quote from https://town-of-salem.wikia.com/wiki/Making_New_Roles. That's breaking a major rule :P

-The only other improvements I can think of are: the consig result can be expanded and become more interesting, and I don't really see a reason for the spy ability to be a thing. Not only is it a rehash, but it buffs the role unnecessarily. Do keep in mind these are small things that can be fixed though.

Overall, I'd give it a

not bad/10 IGN

That's it. You're a big boy now, you know what you're doing :3
