Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-31583987-20181115163904

Name: Spotter

Alignment: Mafia Support

Attributes: Can converse with the other Mafia at night. If there is no Mafia killing roles remaning, you will become a Mafioso.

Attack: None

Defense: None

Ability: You can choose to watch somebody's house at night. Should a Mafia member visit this person, and are in danger of attack, you will warn them, and they will pull out of the attack(or forge,frame,disg etc.). If your target is a Veteran on alert or a WW, you will die, but the warned Mafia member will not. You will not prevent roleblocks or being jailed. This applies even if the visited person has no anti-vist ability. Your ability has 4 charges

Ex: Mafioso attacks Doctor, but Bodyguard is defending Doc, Spotter warns them and Mafioso doesn't attack.

Ex: Godfather attacks WW on full moon, you warn them, sacrificing yourself to keep them alive

Ex: Mafioso attacks Doctor but SK is targeting Mafioso, Mafioso pulls out, keeping Doctor alive and preventing SK from killing them.

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the Mafia!

Investigator: Your target is Sheriff, Executioner, Werewolf or Spotter

Consigiliere/Witch: Your target is desperate to keep the Mafia alive. They must be a Spotter!

Win Conditions: Kill anyone who would oppose the Mafia.

Ideas? Suggestions? Let me know!

Another possible rework of the ability, could be to select somebody during the day, and if they are rampaging at home, on alert or deciding to attack a Mafia member, you will know once night begins, and if they change their mind about alerting/rampaging at home, but you will not know who else they are targeting.
