'''These are always fun. good luck making it a new ability :P'''

Attack: none

Defense: none

Unique Role: no

all of this is cool for a town role, looking good thus far

Abilities: Each night, look through documents to figure out which roles do and don't exist.

originality woo

Mechanics: Each non-full moon night, you will be told one role present in the game, and each full moon night, you will be told one role not present in the game.

'''so, alternation, like psychic. Also a cool way to balance this, kudos'''

You will only be told about roles that could be present in the game, selected randomly (from stuff like town investigative, random town/mafia/coven/neutral etc).

'''yeah. so it could help both by confirming townies and mafia roles. I leikie'''

You will not receive results if roleblocked

nice balance

You will not be told about the same role twice.

makes sense

-Investigative Results-

Sheriff: not suspicious

ofc

Investigator: Lookout, Forger, Coven Leader or Researcher

2-1-1-0. not bad

Consigliere/Witch: Your target looks into important documents until late into the night. They must be a researcher!

that's actually really good :0

Goal, Wins With, Must Kill:Same as town.

mhm Main points:

+O stands for original, which this role is. Not only does it feature a new ability, no Investigative role in the entire game gives clues as to potential roles rather than particular player's roles/factions, which is awesome. This isn't gonna be easy to balance, though.

+Also, though the above idea isn't new when it comes to role ideas, a lot of the time players fail to balance it correctly. This time around, it has alternation and plenty of well done balancing, which is great. This role has a lot of potential, without being overpowered.

+Other than that, all the smaller bits and pieces like stats and abilities are great, and the role itself is relatively easy to comprehend. We're clear on all of that, and I really can't see any big problems.

Overall, this is really good. It's going on my wall
