Name: Emissary

Alignment: Town Investigative

Summary: You are a postman who sends and recieves letters.

So basically, this role has a Day Abilty (like a Jailor), it can select one person per day.

At the start of the night phase, the selected person will get the message: 'You have recieved a letter asking for your role!' The selected player can then optionally click, 'Confess role', they will then get a list of alignments (the same list as you would get if you clicked 'Any' on the rolelist)

At the end of the night phase, the Emissary would either recieve: 'You have recieved a letter back from your client, they have admitted that they are a.

Or, if they did not claim a role:

'You did not recieve a letter backfrom your client, they have refused to claim a role.'

The Emissary will also have a night ability, a button will appear next to anyone they have sent a letter to during the day, the button will 'announce' the letter which was sent back to the town.

If the Emissary decides to select someone, the next day at the start, there will be an announcement (Like an Amnesiacs) which will say: ' has admitted to an Emissary that they are a. Or,  has refused to confess a role to an Emissary.

Some clarification:

The Jailor will have priority over the Emissary, so if the Emissary is jailed their day ability will fail. If there target is jailed, their day ability will also fail, and the Emissary will get a message: 'Your letter failed to send because your target was hauled off to jail'.

The Emissary will not visit their target if they choose to announce their role at night.

The Witch can force the Emissary to announce someone's role (if they have sent a letter to them)

Investigative results:

Sherrif: Your target is not suspicious.

Investigator: Your target could be a Sherrif, Executioner, Emissary, Werewolf or Poisoner.

Consigliere/Witch: Your target sends and recieves letter, they must be an Emissary.
