Alignment: Mafia (Support) K

Abilities:

Sap somebody's house at night K

Attributes:

You have three Saps. '''I read this role over, and this seems like a good fit for a limited-uses role. :)'''

Sap:

- Sapping 'changes/blocks' somebody's night ability K

- A random visitor to a Sapper's target (excluding Mafia) will have their night abilities blocked—this works similar to the "ability failing because they were in jail" mechanic (A Sapper has blocked your night ability.) Great explanation and example!

- This does not stop harmful visitors (i.e. Arsonist, Serial Killer, Plaguebearer, etc.). This does stop Coven Leader if they don't have the neconomicon. Kinda seems like an inverse working for the, but it's a good mechanic.

- [Witches/]Coven Leader(s) will still know the role of their target; their controls won't go through. K

- A Sapper cannot target a mafia member. K

- A Trapper's trap will be registered as hijacked from the Sapper. (A Sapper has hijacked your trap. Your trap is ineffective for this night.) '''SPY SAPPIN MAH SENTRY! Also, would the be notified of this?'''

- Sappers do not know what they did to a visitor. K

Invest Results:

Investigator: Surv, Vh, Amnesiac, [Medusa], [Psychic], Sapper '''This is a 6 role result, however, it would be a 4 role result in a non- Expansion game. The 's result should only have 3 - 5 roles in it, (I'm not 100% sure of this) and that simply makes it weak to have too many roles in a result. However, I'll just let this slide, but I suggest that you find a more fitting result like ",, , and Sapper".'''

Also, you can use double curly brackets to link and color roles btw.

Ex. Type " " to get !

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the Mafia! K

Reveal: (I don't know) rip

(LOL too similar to an Ambusher remake amirightinstantlyrejected)

(I swear, it's not)

(Doesn't this go against the "Visiting Escort" rule for making roles? I don't know?) Summary: This role seems like a really nice idea! That's about all I have to say!

I do have some questions, however:

1. Is this role unique or no?

2. Would a be notified that their trap was disabled for the night?

Nice role idea overall!

Pros: Excellent and unique concept.

Cons: Not many if at all!

OVERALL RATING: yeah sure/10 IGN!

Suggestions: Please answer the questions I listed in the summary! Thanks! ​​​
