I think the seance that is while alive is rather situational and is only useful if there's a dead medium, or cleansed role.

'''It's certainly situational. I would suggest role-dependency- it can't be in the game without a Medium, as a possible option. This also provides the Mafia the info that that role exists. I dunno, like I said, I'm just throwing things around.'''

 It's not very useful, in short. It isn't disrupted anyways. Even then, a Mafia Medium is very situational.

Wakarimashitadesu, it's certainly situational, so a possible fix is to make it can only exist in such a situation.

Most info could be rather given by a Consig for example, and the rare info that isn't is usually irrelevant. I do think that communicating with the dead is interesting, but it isn't that great for a Mafia role.

'''Yeah, it can glean some information from the dead, but its main purpse should be to fake Medium. '''

To establish a connection between two mafia members is pretty cool, but I don't think it would make it MUCH better. That being said, it would be a welcome buff, though it now has some Potion Master "I do a ton of things at once" vibes.

'''That's fine. While PMer has in game effects, this has the power of information. It could even have a third ability, who knows?'''

I still think I'd rather suggest completely doing a redo, but it's a much needed improvement Rasengan.

'''​​​​​​​I think this idea has potential. Like Vert said, if Consort wasn't in the game and some anon posted the idea, we'd probably instantly reject it for being a rehash. While this is certainly a rehas, it's supposed to be. '''

Although, tbh, Medium just isn't a strong enough role for a Mafia version to work by itself. I guess I should just give up. I want to talk to the creator of this, see how he responds.
