Orecreeper wrote: This is a rework of a role I made a while back. One of it's main problems is that it doesn't help the mafia in voting, so here is a slightly buffed/nerfed version.

Attack: None

Defense: None

Abilities:

- You may resurrect a mafia member.

no. this, as a concept, can fundamentally never work.

Attributes:

- You may only resurrect twice.

'''only? twice?'''

- You may only have one resurrected mafia alive at a time.

- You may not resurrect the same mafia member twice.

Mechanics:

- Resurrecting a mafia member will give the entire town a notification. However, the mafia member won't be "alive". They will appear as still dead meaning they can't be lynched/shot/executed. However, they may vote. Their vote will not show up, but it will still count. Also, resurrected mafia members change the number of votes required to get someone up.

'''they are immune to death. if they vote for anyone then town will immediately know that person is essentially innocent.'''

- There are a few ways to kill a resurrected mafia member: it is possible to kill them via an indirect attack, meaning, an attack that wasn't directly targeted at them, such as a Veteran's alert or a Bodyguard counter. Additionally, some things that happen to you will also happen to the resurrected person, those things being: 1. if you die, they die too. 2. if you get blocked/jailed they will too, causing them to be unable to perform their ability.

this makes the Mortician have a massive target on their back, and 

- If all other mafia members are dead but you still have a revive, you get one night to resurrect a mafia member. If you fail, you will turn into a mafioso. If there is a mafia killing resurrected, you will not turn into a mafioso yourself.

- Resurrected players can see both dead and living chat.

Investigation Results:

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

- Investigator: Your target could be a Medium, Janitor, Retributionist, Necromancer, Trapper, or Mortician.

- Consigliere: Your target uses dark magic to reanimate the dead. They must be a Mortician! This seems like a much more powerful perma-Necromancer for the mafia. It gives an extra vote as well, which should never be allowed.
