Abilities:

Visit one person each night to scramble their messages.

Attributes:

Speak to the Mafia at night.

If no kill-capable Mafia is left, the Scrambler becomes the Mafioso.

'Good. Very good.'

Description:

During the nighttime, the Scrambler visits a target to "scramble them." Scrabling mainly impacts the day chat, but has a slight impact on the night one as well. When a target is "scrambled," their night messages (result of lookout, spy results, etc.) come in with all the letters scrambled around. During the daytime, "scrambled" town members can still speak understandably, but cannot make out what others are saying (same as the night messages). Additionally, the chat log scrambles accordingly. After the day someone was scrambled, they will be immune to all other scrambles, but will not be able to read the chat log from the day they were until the following night.

'''This is actually a VERY CREATIVE IDEA and I REALLY REAAAAALLY like it! It's very interesting, but also understand, it can be very dangerous... I have a couple of friends in real life that cannot use live chat because the rapid letters cause seizures. I don't know how this would apply here, but it could be very dangerous.'''

Investigation Results:

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the Mafia!

Investigator: Your target keeps to themselves. They could be a Survivor, Vamp Hunter, Witch, or Scrambler!

'''This is beautiful This role is absolutely beautiful. '''

Consigliere: Your target is a skilled technician (if there even were in Salem). He must be a Scrambler!

I put this together quickly, any feedback helps. Might be too similar to an consort/bm'er but adds just a bit more confusion to the game, something the Mafia loves. I must say, this is one of the most creative, well thought out roles.

I actually approve of this on many levels because it's so creative. I love this role and you should give it a try on BMG and see what they say because this is wonderful.

TONS OF WORK WENT INTO THIS. I'm going to share this with live chat because it's one of the best I've seen in a long time.
