Heck, it even has the same quality of one result where everything is bad, but also they could be framed. This adds pretty much nothing that Invest already adds. Literally an Invest with different results. That's bad not only because it's blatantly a rehash, but also because

Balance: If you had both Investigator and Detective in a game, they could share information and be unstoppable. Invest:, , ,. Detective: Your target's sub alignment is Protective. Now we know that their target is doc. Speaking of the Protective result, no Mafia, Neutral, or Coven has protective, meaning all TPs are instantly confirmed. The role doesn't just confirm townies, it also confirms NE and CE as evil, AKA not town. Yes, Coven is 100% immune to this role once they get the necro, but it's not very fun to have your ability rendered useless against the main opposing force for the rest of the game. This also "confirms" NC and NB.

'''Verdict: Scrap. ''' but with more intuitive, yet overpowered results. I sadly have to agree, although it was a unique attempt.
