Name : Herbalist

Allignment : Town Protective

Summary : You are a student who works with plants!

Win Condition : Lynch all evil-doers

Attack : None

Defense : None

Unique : Yes

Mechanics :

The Herbalist has an option to choose two plants during the day. Yarrow and Thorny Bush.

Yarrow can heal your target or yourself and the Thorny Bush grants basic defense to your target or yourself temporarily until someone attacks them/you.

Thorny Bush's effects can stack up to powerful defense, and when someone attacks the target with Thorny Bushes, their defense will be reduced by 1.

When the Herbalist picks either one of these options during the day (can switch choices if they want), they will water the plant they chosen at night.

It takes 1 night and day for either one to grow.

Day 1 (Choosing your plant) > Night 1 (Watering your plant) > Day 2 (Waiting it to grow) > Night 2 (Plant is ready for use).

IF

A werewolf attacks your target the night you give them the Thorny Bush, you and your target will die. However, If they have basic defense and you give them the Thorny Bush, only you will die. If you have 2 stacks of Thorny Bush on you, you won't die to werewolf.

An arsonist ignites you or your target with the thorny bush, you die. Because your bush is on fire.

You are infected by the plaguebearer, you will take longer for your plants to grow, adding an additional day.

HOWEVER,

Yarrow has a chance to heal doused people that has been set on fire by the arsonist! They can only save one though, and it is a low chance (5%) to heal an ignited person, so healing an ignited person may be considered a waste.
