Defense - basic

'''defense and attack should only be writtin in if it is permanent. if this is permanent, then it must be immediatly removed because no town role should have a constant defense that counters mafia.'''

Attack - basic (like veteran)

Veteran has Powerful Attack on alert.

Note for attack: The attack is only for protecting the target. Here let me explain. Let’s say Person A is Vigi and you are Person B and you’re target is Person C. If Person A attacks Person B and you are with Person C. The vigi will not die but anyone who visited your target will. (Assuming the attacker doesn’t have basic [or higher] defense)

'''so.... if you're attacked, you are a crusader?'''

Abilities - Can choose a target to “protect” every night. The target gains a basic defense for that night and the next night.

'''two nights of protection? that's pretty powerful but could be balanced because it is only basic.'''

If the target is attacked the the night they were chosen, you and the target will attack the attacker.

'''You... and your target? That's not neccesarily required, I beleive.'''

If not an attacking role then that person will also gain a basic defense (for only that night)

'''if they visit your target on the night you protect them, all of you gain defense? This is extremely OP, guarding more then one player on any given night will always be extremely powerful.'''

Note for Abilities: It will not matter who the non-attacking role who busted your target is so roles like Hypnos will also gain basic defense.

Invest - Your target is not afraid to get their hands dirty they must be a Bodyguard, Crusader, Dojo Master, Arsonist, or Godfather

Sheriff - Not suspicious

Consig/Witch/Potion Master/Coven Leader - They help people learn to defend themselves, they must be a dojo master

Message to affected people - You have been visited by a Dojo Master and learned to defending yourself

Special - Every three nights you will take a “break” and not be able to use your ability Self Target: Take a break

Backstory - Who once was originally a survivor, learned the art of tae kwon do and is now teaching it to others, with a goal to help others he strives to teach others to defend.

Please leave suggestions in comments and if I missed some things, sorry this is my first one.

'''No, no, this is a surprisingly good role for not knowing things that are normally rejected. And props for making an account b4 making it xp.''' so immediate problems are that:

- it has permanent defense ---> give it a self-guard

- it kills the attacker without dying ---> this is a bodyguard buff, but may be fixed....

- it gives defense for two nights running ---> this might work if.....

- it gives defense to everyone who visits your target ---> my suggestion for a change would be,

1.) If no one visits your target except for you - give your target two nights of basic defense

2.) If one person visits your target except for you - give both targets basic defense that night

3.) If two people visit your target except for you - your ability fails because there were too many distractions

4.) If no one except you and a killer visit your target, - you will kill the attacker

5.) If a killer and anyone else (except you) visits your target, - your target will die

that's just an idea though, if you'd like to change the entire idea, I'll change my advice.
