You are a butcher that had enough after seeing some friends being lynched. Interesting.

Mechanics:

-The Butcher will gain basic attack if they voted guilty on a townie that got lynched. '''Wouldn't the Butcher just vote guilty all the time? I personally don't like this mechanic as it toys with voting.'''

-The Butcher is now free to attack every night.

-When the Butcher gains the basic attack, then their invest results change to that of an SK’s '''Ooh boy. Typically, it's the evil roles that mess with the Investigator. I feel like it would be better if the Invest results started off as Doctor, Disguiser, Serial Killer, or Potion Master.'''

-The Butcher will retain the basic attack if they die and get revived.

(Side note: butcher does NOT gain defense on lynch)

Invest(before lynch): Sheriff, WW, Exe, Butcher

Invest(after lynch): Doc, Disg, SK

Consigne/Witch: Your target is covered in blood and meat. They must be a butcher!

Wins with/Must kill: same as town. Oh boy.

'''This role is an interesting concept, but as with all other roles, it does have its flaws. For example, I don't like the idea of the Butcher gaining Basic Attack on a dead Town lynch. It could be on any lynch, regardless of the alignment. This would encourage Town to vote in order to give Butcher his ability, but the Town wouldn't be focused on voting for their own alignment. As for the Serial Killer change, it only serves to confuse the Investigator.'''

'''​​​​​​​So yeah! You don't have to take my suggestions, but do change the role a bit. It is a good idea that I'd hate to have you waste.'''
