Board Thread:Role Ideas (Town)/@comment-220.255.29.225-20180926110104

Name: Devil

Alignment:

Game Information/Background: You are an evil spirit who wants his end of the deal.

Attack: None

Defense: Basic

Unique Role: No

Priority: Idk but I guess it's pretty high

Abilities: Empower someone every night.

Attributes:

-Your target is.

-Your empowered target will receive a message saying they were empowered.

-You cannot empower your target.

-If your target dies by any means other than a soul empowerment you will become a.

Mechanics: Empower a target each night. The empowered target will have their ability replaced with a basic attack for that night.

For example, Person A is the devil, and he empowers Person B. Person B visits Person C. Person B's ability will become a basic attack and will kill Person C if he is not immune.

Roles that will not be affected by empowerment:

-Any role that already has basic attack or higher (for example, , , any )

-Any role that does not visit (for example, )

- (they also don't visit anyways). If you try to empower a  the night he alerts, you will die to him and he will not be empowered.

-/ and

-

You will not receive a message if your empowerment succeeds or fails.

Your target's role can be from any faction but it cannot be a role with Basic defense or higher.

If you manage to get your target killed by a soul empowerment, you will lose your empowerment ability, but keep your Basic defence.

Messages:

When selecting a target - You have decided to empower  tonight. (Devil receives)

When deselecting - You have changed your mind. (Devil receives)

When target gets empowered - You feel a surge of power flowing through your body. Your soul has been empowered by the Devil! (target receives)

When target cannot be empowered - A Devil tried to empower you but you are immune! (target receives)

When someone is killed by an empowered soul - You were attacked by an empowered soul! (target receives)

When target is jailed - A Devil tried to empower you but you were jailed! (target receives)

Death message at the start of the day - He was killed by the Devil's empowered soul.

-Investigative Results-


 * Your target could be a, , /, or Devil!


 * Your target is not suspicious.

/: Your target empowers souls to get his end of the deal. They must be a Devil!

Goal: Get your target killed by an empowerment at all costs.

Wins with: Anyone (after getting target killed by empowerment)

Must Kill: target (via empowerment)

Anything else: I feel that this role might be OP (in the sense that it kills beyond its own control) or UP (that it cannot actually accurately predict who will visit its target). This is my first role suggestion so perhaps some constructive critisism?

Lore:

The Devil sat down, cross legged in his chair. Across the old wooden table sat the Sheriff, his face pale with anguish.

"And what have you come here for today?" asked the Devil, his face covered by the shadows of the night.

"I've found a member of the Mafia! He - he's the blonde guy 3 blocks from here!" replied the anxious Sheriff, with heavy panting between his words. "I have to get rid of him before it's too late!"

The Devil rocked his chair, reaching under the desk and pulling out a portrait of a man. From the darkness, he calmly replied, "The blonde guy. He sold his soul to me a week ago in exchange for immunity from the town's Serial Killer. Haven't seen the coward's face since then. Still has his little terrified soul within him."

He leaned forward, placing his hands on the table.

"So, let's say I give you a little juice?"

A bright ball of magic started to form within the Devil's fingers, and soon it was a glowing beauty. He hurled it at the Sheriff, and after a few moans, the Sheriff regained his footing.

"I... I feel more powerful now!" cried the Sheriff.

"So, you visit him tonight. Do the dirty deed for me. That's my end of the deal." explained the Devil. "Get rid of him. That's all you have to do."

As the sun rose, the citizens of Salem walked out from their houses, to the square where the dead would be announced. A crooked smile formed on the Devil's face as he watched the Investigator pull out the corpse of a blonde man from the house three blocks away from his.

No one dared to mess with the Devil after that.
