'''Welcome to the wiki! I highly encourage making an account to make more roles. While this is a simple idea, those are my favorite. Every idea here is appreciated despite it's flaws, and I hope you can become part of this community.'''

I apologize in advance if I ever sound harsh during this review, I am trying to convey my opinion. Name: Watchkeeper

Alignment: Town Investigative

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique Role: No

Summary: You are a lonely outcast who keeps track of everyone in the Town.

Mechanics:

- Every night, recieve of list of all players who were visited at least twice. i have a few issues with this ability. a.) the watchkeeper doesn't require any skill from the player. you cannot interact with your surroundings, and you have no idea how to confirm anything. the medium is similair to this, not having an impact on the surroundings, however, they can ask the dead question in regards to valuable information. this is why they can be more relevenat in the day. '''​​​​​​​b.) the watchkeeper role doesn't seem to have a purpose. it just seems very underpowered, it doesn't powerful enough to contribute.''' c.) the watchkeeper doesn't really bring valuable information to the table. the only times i can see this being useful is to bust fake wills, however, you could easily fake this by saying that you and your mafia buddy visited a target. ​​​​​​​

Results:

Sheriff: Innocent

Investigator: Doctor, Watchkeeper, Disguiser, or Serial Killer.

Exact: Your target studies all visits at night. They must be a Watchkeeper. In conclusion, I would give this role more unique abilities. I really like how it's not easily confirmable like most other roles nowadays, and how it has a fairly unique ability, although it's ability could be buffed and given more hands-on abilities. Regardless, I assume this may be one of your first roles, and it's pretty good for a first, so I hope to see more of you!
