Board Thread:Role Ideas (Town)/@comment-38965982-20190330014708

Name: The Observer

Alignment: Town Investigative

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique: YES

Priority: Lowest of the low (6)

Abilities: See the comings and goings of the townsfolk at night.

Attributes+Mechanics:

Each night you choose a target to watch, like a Lookout.

You will also watch everyone that your target interacts with: anyone who visits your target, or who your target visits. However, you will only physically visit your selected target.

You will not watch anyone who visits you.

Instead of seeing the names of the players who visit your target(s), you see their investigative results. However, these have in some cases been narrowed down.

The Observer will not be fooled by a disguiser, framer, hex master, or arsonist.

Investigative Results (Simplified): I just took out all non-visiting roles.
 * Vigilante, Veteran, Mafioso, Pirate, or Ambusher -> Vigilante, Mafioso, Pirate, Ambusher
 * Medium, Janitor, Retributionist, Necromancer, or Trapper -> Janitor, Trapper
 * Survivor, Vampire Hunter, Amnesiac, Medusa, or Psychic -> Vampire Hunter
 * Spy, Blackmailer, Jailor, or Guardian Angel -> Spy, Blackmailer
 * Sheriff, Executioner, Werewolf, or Poisoner -> Sheriff, Werewolf, Poisoner
 * Framer, Vampire, Jester, or Hex Master -> Framer, Vampire, Hex Master
 * Lookout, Forger, or Witch/Coven Leader -> Lookout, Forger, Witch/Coven Leader
 * Escort, Transporter, Consort, or Hypnotist -> Escort, Transpoter, Consort, Hypnotist
 * Doctor, Disguiser, Serial Killer, or Potion Master -> Doctor, Disguiser, Serial Killer, Potion Master
 * Investigator, Consigliere, Mayor, Tracker, or Plaguebearer -> Investigator, Consigliere, Tracker, Plaguebearer
 * Bodyguard, Godfather, Arsonist, or Crusader -> Bodyguard, Godfather, Arsonist, Crusader

Sheriff: Innocent, of course

Investigator: Your target is a Lookout, Forger, Witch/Coven Leader, Observer!

Consigliere: Your target watches over the town to see the comings and goings of all. They must be an Observer!

Good luck trying to fake claim that :D

Has standard Town goals, victory conditions, etc.

This is a mix of Lookout, Spy, and Plaguebearer that I thought would be good to spot fake claims.
