 Alignment: Town Protective

 Ablilities: You may choose to sterilize someone each night, cleaning them of all evil non-killing effects.

 Attributes: If you are visited by an arsonist, plaguebearer, poisoner, or hex master, then in addition to you becoming doused/infected/poisoned/hexed, your sterilizer will become infected. This causes anyone you visit to become doused/infected/poisoned/hexed. You can clean your sterilizer by selecting yourself, but you can only do this once.

 Mechanics:

 - The evil roles whose effects get cleaned off by a sterilizer are the janitor, blackmailer, framer, forger, consort, hypnotist, disguiser, consigliere, arsonist, plaguebearer, medusa (only the stoning part, not the attacking part), poisoner, hex master, witch, coven leader (only the controlling and investigate parts, not the attack dealt with the necromonicon), potion master (only the investigate and heal potions, not the attacking potion), and vampire (only the conversion part, not the attacking part).

 - If one of the afore-mentioned roles visits the sterilizer's target, then they will get the notification "Your ability failed because your target was sterilized". However, the sterilizer's target will not recieve a notification.

 - Even if a non-(immediately) killing evil role such as the arsonist, plaguebearer, poisoner, or hex master had already used their ability on a target a previous night, it will still be wiped away by the sterilizer if he visits that target.

 - If an arsonist, plaguebearer or hex master visits a sterilizer, he will not know that his sterilizer has been infected (he will obviously know that his sterilizer has been infected if a poisoner visits).

 - When the sterilizer sterilizer himself, it works just as if does when he sterilizes other people, just with the added bonus of your sterilizer getting cleaned.

 Sheriff: Your target is not suspicious.



 Investigator: Your target could be a Sheriff, Sterilizer, Executioner, Werewolf, or Poisoner. (this might not be the best one but I like it because it would make sterilizer a very good claim for poisoner in a similar way to how spy is a great claim for blackmailer)

 Consigliere/Witch: Your target cleans other people. They must be a sterilizer.

 Wins with/Must kill: Same as the other townies.

Heres the problem with this role:

Its a firefighter role, which is like Anti-Arsonist.

Also, if Plaugebearer was infected with his own plauge that doesn't really do anything helpful to the game and as a result it creates a paradox.

Hex Master is a though call, what if he has the Necronomicon? He auto kills himself as a result??

Overall, its an interesting concept, but It would cause way too much Chaos
