I only just started using this wiki/forum/whatever so if one or all of these have already been suggested, sorry about that.

Chaperone - Mafia Support

Literally, just a Mafia version of the Bodyguard. They can't guard Mafia members (to avoid making Spy's wills confused), which you may think makes them useless, but not so: they can guess the Neutral Killing's next target and kill them.

Mystic - Mafia Support

A cross between Disguiser and Blackmailer; potentially could replace Disguiser.

Ability: Possess one person during the day.

Attributes: When you possess someone you control all their actions during that day. You may only possess someone three times.

That aboout sums it up. At night pick who to possess tomorrow, and then control all their daily actions. This includes speaking, voting and day abilities (making a possessed Mayor or Jailor particularly terrifying). The possessions are limited because it would probably be way too powerful.

While you are possessing someone your "real" body/name cannot talk, vote or do anything. If your real self is lynched then you will die; if the person you are possessing is lynched they will die rather than you. If the person you are about to possess dies at night the possession will be wasted; if you die you will not possess the target the following day.

Necromancer - Neutral Chaos

An evil Retributionist.

Abilities: Bring one person back to life during the night.

Attributes: People you bring back will become Servants. - You may only bring three people back to life.

Servants are a Neutral Chaos. They exist only to serve the Necromancer. They have no abilities, but both the Servants and the Necromancer win without Town (like Witch). If Necro dies then all Servants die too (?).

Mercenary - Neutral Killing

A killing Survivor.

Ability: Offer your services to one person each night.

Basically, you have a day ability which allows you to select one person. That night that one person can control what you do - you are a Killing role remember so this offers non-killing roles a chance to kill someone. Be warned: they can order you to kill yourself! You are not night immune!

Recruiter - Town Support

Ability: Attempt to recruit one person each night.

If you target a Neutral Benign or Neutral Evil role, or the Arsonist, you will receive a message saying that you recruited a Medium/Sheriff/Escort (this list subject to change). This forcibly changes the role of the Neutral into a Town role.

Feel free to suggest any changes. More details coming tomorrow, probably.
