Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-31456016-20180321194957

I have this idea for a Mafia Role to help them get a better shot at winning. Here's how the Persauder would work.

Attack + Defence = None

Abilites:

At Daytime, Choose a Player to Persuade. That night, the chosen player and the Persuader will privatley talk (Similar to the Jailor) The Persuader's goal is to get the other player to click the button on their screen to join the Mafia. Once the player agrees, they may choose any Mafia Role except Godfather. The Town will not know of this Role Change, unless the Converter Player is lynched. Once the player joins the Mafia, their Goal changes to the Mafia one.

However, to balance this, if the Chosen Player does not convert to the Mafia, they will know that a Mafia Member Talked to them, and will be given a clue to their identity. The Persuader can choose to kill a non-co-operating player, however. If so, it will show the Standard Mafia Kill dialogue.

I came up with this idea, to address the Mafia's main problem of Lack of Members.

Let me know what you think.
