Alignment: Mafia (Support)

Attack: None

Defense: None

Goal: (insert Mafia win condition)

Abilities: At night, choose a target to conceal their information.

Attributes:

- When you conceal someone’s information, they will not see any messages that they were supposed to receive. The only exception being “You did not perform your night Ability”. Hmm, this kinda role is very UP

- Players will not know that you’ve concealed their information

- Visiting a veteran will cause you to die, however, the veteran will not receive the message that they shot you.

- You cannot conceal a target’s information 2 nights in a row why not?

Cuz it’ll be too op, like spamming ur ability on a spy

Mechanics:

- For any TIs, they will not receive their results when you use your ability on them. For example, if they were supposed to see “Your target could be a vig, vet, mafioso”, they will not receive the message.

- If a target was attacked, they will not receive the message as to how they died. They will see anyway in the morning If they are protected by a TP, they won’t receive the message that they were healed or had someone ought off their attacker.

- Spies who bug a certain target will still be able to find out if anything happens to them. Why Cuz ur ability only works on one target, so it’ll only erase from target’s perspective not anyone elses  This concept is very weak as it’s incredibly situational, like a framer, but it’s not even that useful. Also, it gives itself away when it targets a ti or anyone who always gets a message.Ya, a lot of maf roles give away like, bmer, janitor, sometimes forger

But there even even nerfs like not the same person twice and doesn’t work on spies, if anything, it needs buffs.Wut changes should I make?
