Alignment: Mafia Support

Game Information/Background: You are a private bodyguard that only works for the mafia

'''i don't think having the name of another role is the best idea. but necromancer does it so i guess it's fine'''

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique Role: Yes

Priority: Same as bodyguard I guess

so 3

Abilities:

-Grant another mafia member basic defense
 * Mafia Protective- Any Mafia that is copy of any Town Protective or protects Mafia in any way is most likely not going to work.

-The protected target cannot be roleblocked or controlled. (Escort/Consort will not get a message their target was roleblock-immune)

this is kinda cool

Attributes:

-If there are no more kill-capable mafia roles, you will turn into a mafioso

-You cannot protect the mafioso

'''i guess this is ok because this role is an rm. you can protect gf and the rm unless the gf dies in which case you shouldn't be protecting other people.'''

Mechanics: (How It Works)

So basically you're a bodyguard that works for the mafia. You cannot protect the mafioso. Your target will get basic defense and cannot be roleblocked or controlled.

if you're a bodyguard, do you kill the protector?

besides basic isn't great because that only would save mafia from vig and sk

-Investigative Results-

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the mafia!

Investigator: Bodyguard, Godfather, Arsonist, Crusader or Chaperone

Two mafia in one investigation result >_<

(I put the coven invest results although I wasn't planning on this role being a coven expansion role)

Consigliere/Witch: Your target is a private bodyguard. They must be a Chaperone

Goal: Kill all who do not submit to the mafia

Wins With: Mafia, NE, NB

Must Kill: All others

Anything Else: so this is a Mafia Protective, which would never work in the first place, but if we're going to break the rules let's do it right.

the main threats for mafia are jailor, vig, vet, sk, ww, and arso (in vanilla because you said this is not a coven role)

vig, sk - basic

vet, ww - powerful

jailor, arso - unstoppable

so this would only protect from 1/3 of their threats. let's make it (at minimum) powerful defense.

also, the investigation result needs to change, even though it's a perfect fit there would be 3 evils (two mafia at that) in one result

but none of the other investigation results work so we either keep this or come up with somethin stupid like "oh well the chaperone would be around dead bodies because their protecting people from the mafia so" med/jan/ret.

overall it seems like a good fun role, but it breaks some of the wiki's "roles not to make"
