Role Name: Necromancer

Category: Neutral Evil

Abilities: You can secretly convert a dead person into your teammate.

Attributes:

- You can talk in the necromancer's chat.

Goal: Lynch or kill everyone who would oppose you.

Sheriff results: Your target is a Necromancer!

Investigator results: Your target works with dead bodies. They could be the Medium, Janitor, Retributionist or Necromancer.

Consigliere results: Your target runs an army of the dead. They must be a Necromancer.

Immunities: Roleblock, Bite, Night

Wins with: Witches, Survivors

Extra info: The necromancer can only convert 2 people into his teammates. Teammates will still show up in the graveyard for everyone, but will be able to perform their nightly actions. They will be added to the necromancer's chat so they can communicate with him at night, but won't be able to talk during the day, unless in dead chat. Once the necromancer has been killed, his team will no longer be able to perform their actions. If the necromancer ends up winning, his teammates will win as well.

Extra Extra info:

- Lookouts will see the dead person visiting instead of the NM

- People killed will appear to be killed by the original role

Weaknesses:

- Can easily be detected by Sheriffs

- Can’t do much early into the rounds

- Though part of a team, it is only 1 vote

- Once he is killed, the whole team is dead

Strengths:

- The team can potentially kill 2 people per night

- The necromancer won’t visit people himself, so lookouts won’t be able to spot him

I have tried to find alternative names or synonyms, but nothing suits it as well as “Necromancer” does for a role name.
