Attributes:

If you select yourself, your puppet will demand that a townie must die the following night. If a town member doesn’t die, either a member of the Mafia or a Neutral Killing role will be dealt with a powerful (or unstoppable idk yet) attack

'''right. now, how is the nk/mafia chosen? which member of said faction is killed? what if there arent any? if this is rng, thats a no.'''

If you select another person, you will have two options, either your puppet demand your target be lynched the following day (if they do not get lynched a person who didn’t try to vote them up will be dealt with a powerful (or unstoppable idk yet) attack) or demand your target be healed the following night.

'''and.. they're just healed? also, how do you choose this?'''

-Investigative Results-

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the Coven!

great.

Investigator: Your target could be an Escort, Transporter, Consort, Hypnotist, or Puppeteer

2-2-1-0. Solid result, I leik

A lot of people struggle here, but I think you did a good job :DD

okai

Must Kill: Everybody else

More info :

N1 you have to enchant your puppet (So you do nothing)

'''balancing. fair enough, seeing as the role kills pretty much every night.'''

Once you choose what to demand, the following day everyone will receive a message saying for example ...The Puppeteer’s puppet has demanded that a member of the Town die the next night!

'''ohhh. so that's how this works. so it basically puts extra pressure on the town. not bad'''

You can’t use the same ability thingy twice in a row (like the abilities are demanding that a townie dies, to lynch a person, and to heal a person.)

good balancing

With the Necro, the Puppeteer becomes ns to sheriff and their puppet can now demand souls (basic attack) Main points:

+It has new abilities, which makes it original and all that, which is nice. Nobody wants a rehash. The ability its self also seems fun and interesting, which is great.

+This role seems well balanced enough. It can't attack night one, which is nice seeing as overall it still seems pretty powerful. For that reason, I'd suggest a powerful, or maybe even basic attack.

-Well, one thing is that this role has a lot of abilities and attributes. Not only does this make the role difficult to understand for new players, I'm also confused as to how you choose this? Do you get two buttons for everyone? A sun icon? How would you know which button does what?

-One small thing I think is worth mentioning; the alignment isn't complete, but I'd suggest CS.

Overall, this would get a

sure why not/10 IGN

Just remember that it really isn't easy to get your role to be approved my many, so if it doesn't get into the game, don't be too discouraged because very few actually do. Even with that I have to say that your idea is better than quite a lot of the roles out there :)

If you haven't already, please take a look at this page, it helps a lot when creating roles: http://town-of-salem.wikia.com/wiki/Making_New_Roles
