Board Thread:Role Ideas (Town)/@comment-35813313-20180718051136

Name: Actor

Alignment: Town Support

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique Role: No, but rare to have two Actors (this is so it’s hard to confirm a person as an Actor)

Attributes: None

Description: Once a famous play actor, you moved into Salem for a silent recluse from fame; however, the recent evil activity calls for a hero, and only you can play the part.

Abilities: Select a player during the day to do something similar to their ability during the night.

You will choose a new target each night.

You will not learn your target's role.

Your investigative results will match your target’s role.

You can choose the same target once per round.

If you choose a player who has a limited amount of times they can use their abilities, you will not know how many times they can still use their ability nor will you use up one of their turns. (Ex. Choosing a Veteran with 3 alerts left will only show that you have 1 alert left, and you will not use up the Veteran’s alert.)

During the night, your Attributes Card will not change.

If you select a:

,, , , , --  with 1 bullet (you will get a notification at the beginning of the night saying you have a bullet left) (you cannot shoot your target)

-- with one vest left

/ --

, --

, --

--

--

--

,, Actor, , , , , , on odd nights -- no action

-- No action, but you will die at the end of the night.

on even nights -- with 1 alert (you will get a notification at the beginning of the night saying you have 1 alert left) (however, you will die at the end of the night, but you won't kill the  unless the  visits you)

--, but if you choose a dead player, you become that player for the rest if the game. Like a, you cannot remember evil roles.

-- with 1 alert, but a  on alert will kill you.

The rest -- same attributes as the target

Notifications:

--If you learn to be a, you will get the notification that you have a bullet left.

--If you learn to be a, you will get the notification that you have a vest left.

If you learn to be a, you will get the notification that you have 4 vests left.

Example :

The and a  both die Night 1. The proves themselves early on by reviving the dead Jailor, and the Actor learns the  role in order to revive the dead. The had already claimed that they were a  that would be on the  for the rest of the game, and the now-confirmed Actor decides to see if the  really is a. The Actor discovers that the is actually an evil role because the  turned into a  that night, and puts this in their will before dying to the. The next day, the lynches the.





/ : Your target has played many roles in their lifetime, and continues to act offstage. They must be an Actor!
