Summary

An investigator who dwaddles in Coven magic as a hobby.

Town Leader maybe define what this is?

Unstoppable makes sense with the role but a townie with an unstoppable attack makes vigi cringe

None

Yes

==Gameplay==

Attributes -

Mechanics -

At night, choose a dead person to demand.

You will revive them, but the person listed as your second target will die that night from an unstoppable attack. lol so retri + unstoppable vigi

This essentially acts as a life transfer, but more temporary.

The following day, they can act as normal.

After that day, they will die and the person that you listed as your second target originally comes back. '''does this happen at the end of the night or at the start of the night? I would suggest at the end so you couldn't have 2 ppl permanently switched.'''

Basically: Choose two targets. First one comes alive, second one dies.

First one acts as a normal player and the second acts as a normal dead person. so this role can easily confirm med without the need of a retri

The next night, the first original target dies and the second comes back.

You can only do this 3 times. thats better

The day they return, you can instead force them to stay and kill the second target, as to not be worse than jailor. ? am i the only one confused by this sentence?

What i think this means is you can do the thing i just said it shouldn't do, but correct me if im wrong

Notifications -

"You decided to demand [x]."

"You decided to use [y]'s soul to bring [x] back."

[public announcements]

"[x] was brought back from the dead!" "[y] was killed to bring back the dead." this is said like an amne message or a pest message i assume?

[To targets]

"You were brought back to be interrogated!" '''lol. maybe change it to "You were brought back to life by the Coroner!"'''

"You were killed to bring back someone!" "You will now return back to the dead." "You will return to the living realm."

[Public - When the dead go back]

"[x] was killed by the Coroner." "[y] was returned by the Coroner!"

==Investigative Results==

Sheriff -

Innocent

Investigator -

Medium, Janitor, Retributionist, Necromancer, Trapper, or Coroner! fits but thats a lotta town

Precise - 

Your target is a paranormal investigator. They must be the Coroner!

-Achievements-

Guess I'm Just Better At Your Job - Select both a Retributionist and Investigator as your targets. so true

Great Decisions - Revive someone, only to have them kill someone else the night they return. this just encourages gamethrowing​​​

so... this role seems pretty OP

basically its 3 nights of retri + 3 temporary jester haunts. At least its unique. I see this role being super OP at higher skill levels and just annoying in lower skill levels. Here i have 2 senarios:

Pro Level -

coroner claims d1, like jailor meta, and all TPs and LOs are on them. They can't be killed, anyone mafia kills gets rezed for the first 3 days. This just makes killing irellevant for the first 3 days. If maf kills mayor, the coroner rezes them and has 2 extra votes for the day, if the jailor gets killed, the coroner can sub out a med or something for the jailor for 3 days. If a vigi suicides, the coroner can bring them back to get free attacks. While doing all of this, they are able to keep killing roles down, Ex: killing arso so they cant ignite, killing ww every full moon, and also can flip voting majority in the late game.

Noobs -

Coroner randomly kills someone to revive the first town that dies Ex: blocks vigi from shooting, sheriff from investigsting, escort from rbing, etc. and generally pisses everyone off because they can't do anything.

Balancing ideas

-maybe only able to do this twice

-maybe not able to kill mafia members (though in some way that it wouldn't reveal who they were)

Although u said earlier that this replaces jailor which makes me think town leader would replace the jailor slot in ranked role list? town leaders being: jailor, coroner, mayor, retri (possibly)

If this replaces jailor it isn't as OP but is certainly better in some situations and certainly more confusing.

Idea: 9/10

Execution (balance): 5/10
