Lore: Not sure doesnt matter

Attack: None ok

Defense: None ok

Unique Role: Probably ok

Priority: No whats the priority?

Abilities: You hear a certain chat at night. which chat?

Attributes: Select a chat to listen in on during the day. '''will a pop-up like pirate or pm appear where you can choose which chat to listen to? What about all any: will it automatically confirm that roles such as mafia and coven exist?'''

Mechanics: You cannot hear actions, much like the Vampire Hunter. During the day, you have the sun icon that the jailor and pirate have. You can choose to listen in on mafia, coven, jailor and jailed, or vampires. However, the buttons don't disappear even if there are none of a certain role. so if there are no factions or jailor then you can auto-confirm that because the button wouldn't appear?

Investigative Results

Sheriff: You're target is not suspicious

Investigator: Lookout, Forger, Witch/Coven Leader, or Eavesdropper i think this fits better with the spy result

Consigliere/Witch: You're target likes to listen to other persons' people's* conversations. They must be an Eavesdropper ok

Goal: Towny Stuff ok

Wins with: Town and NB

Must kill: Not Townys ​​​​​​​excluding NB

I made this role becuase I really liked the idea of the spy hearing the mafia chat, but then it got removed. So I wanted to make another role that did nothing but listen in on chats. This role might be a bit overpowered/underpowered, so I might have to make a few tweaks to it. Anyway, I would love to hear your opinion about it! It is a bit OP as to where it can auto-confirm existing factions (while useless in gamemodes with fixed rolelists). Also, does it show the names of the people talking or only the role or just "member of the (faction)"? If it does show the roles of the people talking it would be too OP since it can confirm roles.

Maybe the chat you are listening to (apart from jailor) will recieve the message that an Eavesdropper is listening? I actually said that the buttons won't​​​​​​​ dissapear even if there are none of that role. And your message idea sounds totally great.
