Role - Gambler

Alignment - Neutral (Benign)

Attributes 

Day Ability - None.

Night Ability - Select a target at night to gamble on whether they will be visited (you may select yourself). If they are visited by one person, you will be immune for the night, if they are visited by two people, you will gain immunity for 2 nights, and so on. If your target is not visited, you will "lose". If you lose 3 times in a game, you will fall into debt and commit suicide. Since the immunity you have won is temporary, it protects you from all attacks, including a Werewolf's attack and an Arsonist's douse. However, it will not protect you from being haunted by a Jester, and it will not protect you from being ignited by an Arsonist if they doused you on a non-immune night. For obvious reasons, selecting a target does not count as you visiting them (as with selecting yourself). You will not be given any information about who visited your target. If you take no action at night, you will not gamble. Since you do not actually visit your target, gambling on a Veteran on alert will not kill you. You will also not be killed by a Werewolf if they are rampaging at your target's house, and you will not be killed by gambling on a Werewolf who stayed home during a full moon. You can still be roleblocked, and you can still be targeted by a Witch to gamble on someone else. You will not be able to gamble if you are jailed. If your target visits themself (Arsonist igniting, Doctor self-healing, Veteran alerting etc.), this will count as a visit to your target.

Special - Temporary night immunity.

Goal - Survive until the end of the game.

Sheriff - Your target is not suspicious.

Investigator - Your target is waiting for the perfect moment to strike. They are either a Sheriff, Executioner, Werewolf or Gambler.

Consigliere - Your target places bets on the affairs of others. They must be a Gambler.

Gambling results:

"Your target was visited by one person. You have won immunity for the night."

"Your target was visited by three people. You have won immunity for 3 nights!"

"Your target was not visited. You lose!"

"You have lost 3 times and fallen into debt. You have committed suicide!"
