Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique: Yes

None of the other MS/MD are unique, but there's no real rule against it so whatev

Abilities:

- Choose to make the entire Town anonymous.

did you read the "Town Anarchy" idea?

Attributes:

- You may only use your ability twice.

- If your ability fails, via control, jail, role-block, or any other reason, you will not get your use back.

How would this fail via jail?

- The entire town recieves a message when you successful use your ability.

Mechanics:

- Making the Town anonymous will hide all names in chat the next day, as well as who voted who. Talkers and voters will be shown as "Anonymous" (i.e. Anonymous has voted against Deodat Lawson).

- The day you use your ability, you recieve 3 votes.

Investigation Results:

- Sheriff: Your target is a member of the Mafia!

- Investigator: Your target could be a Spy, Blackmailer, Jailor, Guardian Angel, or Concealer.

- Consigliere: Your target can make people anonymous. They must be a Concealer! This role is pretty interesting, but it can be easily countered when people give a will. Besides, this idea was suggested less then six hours before.

Honestly, it's not bad. But it does seem like it would become a Forger or Disguiser-like role, where it may have a very slight succesful endeavor once or twice; but overall will just confuse new players and be a mile incovenicnce for old ones. Yes, I did see the Town Anarchy idea. I just remixed it and converted it to Mafia. Oh, nvm about the jail thing. I was thinking of it as a role-block XD.
