don't stop making roles just because i role review, you will make a good role soon, trust me Role: Engineer

Mafia Support

'''aha, you've found a soft spot. i love MS and MD role ideas'''

Attack: None

Defense: None

Attributes: You can converse with the other Mafia at night.

Ability: Each night, you can upgrade one of your fellow Mafia's arsenal. Upgrade lasts 1 night. Each upgrade effects Mafia members differently.

'''I've never heard this suggestion before which baffles me, because it's such a unique but simple idea. i've heard a role that upgrades all roles but never specifically mafia'''

Mafioso: Attack becomes Powerful.

this only let's it kill Witch and Executionar so this ultimately hurts Mafia....

Godfather: Gains Powerful Defense.

this would only protect GF from Veteran and WW which is ultimately pretty weak

Consigliere: Gains detection immunity for the night OR Basic Defense (idk which is more balanced)

'''detection immunity is more balanced, but this buff is boring. each buff should be role specific.'''

Blackmailer: Gains detection immunity for the night OR Basic Defense (idk which is more balanced)\

same as consig

Ambusher: Gains Powerful Attack

same as mafioso

Janitor: Gains Detection Immunity

same as consig

Target Self: Detection Immunity

Forger/Hypnotist/Consort/Disguiser

Ability has 3 charges.

Sheriff: Your target is a member of the Mafia!

Investigator: Your target could be Veteran, Vigilante, Mafioso, Engineer

so, for a vanilla role this is probably fine, but you included Ambusher, so I have to assume this role is part of the Coven DLC, meaning this would be Vig/Vet/Mafioso/Amb/Pirate, which is not only 3 mafia, but 4 evils, and 6 roles in one investigation result.

Consigliere/Witch: Your target obsesses over mechanical gadgets, they must be an Engineer!

Soo, this is my last attempt at creating a decent role, if this is as bad as the other ones, I will officially retire from creating shitty roles, and will start reviewing roles. role making is fun and allows you to explore possibilities of the game that other people may never have thought of, if you want to review that's totally ok, but please continue to make roles because your roles are pretty good, and i know you're on the cusp of a breakthrough role

so this role has (as far as I'm aware) a very original concept, but it needs heavy rework. so first of all, I do not know if this is permanent or temporary affects, so if it's bold it's the permanent idea and if it's not it's the one night idea.

Godfather - You are not seen by Lookout/Spy and you may choose a role for your investigation result that night. You may also chose which member of the mafia, can be MD/MS will kill. You are never seen by LO/Spy.

Mafioso - You kill everyone the Mafia visits on a night. You always kill both who you select and who the Godfather selects.

Blackmailer - You negate your targets ability to vote. You negate your targets ability to talk to jailor and the dead.

Consigiliere - You get a list of all the people who visited your target and all their roles, this includes your target. You get a list of all the roles that visited your target but not the people.

Consort - The person you roleblock can not perform their ability for 3 nights. People are roleblocked for two night when you roleblock them.

Framer - Permanent frame. Your visits are not seen by spy, and the lookout will see your target visit anyone who dies.

Forger - You edit the will, instead of making it. If your target does not die you get their investigation result.

Disguiser - Detection immunity, keeps disguises on so if they get jailed they will be seen as their role. makes vig die and jailor give up exes. gets investigator results each night so they can guess someone's role to disguise. '''Keeps disguises on so if they get jailed they will be seen as their role. Gets investigator results each night so they can guess someone's role to disguise.'''

Janitor - If you use a clean on the night that the Engineer gives you a buff, it doesn't count to your total cleans. Everyone in the mafia knows the role of your cleaned target.
