Board Thread:Role Ideas (Rework)/@comment-27429610-20181030162643

I thought of this idea in the shower. The Forger is currently weak. I think. This buff might have been suggested before, but I'm not sure.

First off, give the Forger a day ability. (AAAAHHH) Three times in the game, they are able to decide to steal someone else's last will. The theft will occur at the end of the day. At the beginning of the night, the entirety of their target's last will is shown to them. They are able to change it as much as they want. However, the forgery will only occur if the target dies that night. It does not carry over to other nights. The Forger may choose to not enact their forgery, but they will not get a forgery back. This requires the Mafia to strategize the previous night (or the previous day via whispers) on who the Forger will forge. This buff will allow Forger to actually create accurate forgeries.

Oppositions:

"They can read last wills! They'll become a Consig copy!"

Sure, maybe. But first off, the person they forge might have a fake will. Second, they only have three uses. Third, they're currently sort of an underpowered Janitor, since they really can only just erase wills, UNLESS THERE IS A CONSIG.

"They can read last wills! That's OP!"

Not really, though. Town Investigatives (in Ranked) usually announce their findings as they happen, so taking TI last wills may only be useful if there is a Blackmailer. The roles that would be good to forge would be Escort (to say that someone isn't an MK, or frame someone of being SK), Medium (since they can update their will during the night), Jailor (to change claims), Vigilante (to claim someone is immune), and maybe some other roles, too.

"This will be super easy to counter! Just cut your last will before the night starts and paste it back!"

This meta might become used, but then what if you delete your will instead of cutting it? What if you get jailed? This meta might not be such a bad thing. It will almost definitely cause confusion, and give Disguiser a slight buff, since you may not need a last will to be convincing. OR maybe, if the Forger closed the stolen last will, then opened it again, the will would be updated.

TL;DR, let Forger read Last Wills.

Any suggestions or other oppositions would be welcome.
