You get more defense, at any rate, and the "bg still dies" part is too underpowered. Strip the defense down a bit so you don't serious screw over jesters and arsonists and stuff. ti's do not get results, ts's don't get to use their role. it overall helps the specific member from death but also from other roles. lol, I had a litle bit of an issue with that, too. Primarily bc most invest roles are town roles. Maybe make this exclusively to investigative non-town roles; Consigliere, Witch, [Coven Leader], [Potion Master] that makes it more busted, the point of it is that it protects it gives it unstoppable defense and blocks stuff even as powerful as an arsonist, but also blocks some town roles from helping out. That's the problem I have. On the one hand, it's too overpowered to the neutral faction, '''fair. it stops nk's and ne's''' which is reliant on killing and already loses enough games as it is. On the other hand, it's harmful to its fellow townies, something that only this role does, a role that helps, but also hurts in some ways and therefore subject to gamethrowing. '''pardon? it can't gamethrow because it's protecting. with a vig, it just kills with the consequence of it dying, but if it kills a townie there's no upside. with a fireman, if it protects someone and blocks results in the process, that's the role. it might even let jailor ret claims become more common because it couldn't protect and invest the same night.''' And on a third hand, it can do jack shit to roles such as Framer and Amnesiac. third hand? '''it blocks framers.  amnesiac shouldn't be on towns radar, it's an nb, completely neutral and harmless''' I don't take into account amnesiac and survivor because they aren't in ranked anymore, and some of my roles are dictated by the meta.
