Board Thread:Role Ideas (Coven)/@comment-39067078-20190913212938

The Problematic Series of roles is the 30+ roles I promised for September in an attempt to get people to create more roles.

'''These roles, as said, are roles with problems that I cannot put my finger on. A sense of “Would this even be useful?” '''

They are posted in the order of Town, Mafia, and Coven.

Extra Note: Vertroyer pls no roast

See the other Problematic Roles:

Mechanic (Town Protective)

Houndmaster (Mafia Support)

Empath (Coven Evil)

Politician (Town Support)

Dean (Mafia Deception)

NAME

Phobos

Summary

A deity of fear, looking to cause mayhem.

Win Condition - 

 (Coven Stuff)

Alignment - 

Coven Evil

Attack -

None (Basic with Necronomicon)

Defense -

None

Unique -

Yes

Attributes -

At night, you can choose someone to brainwash with your first ability.

Using your second ability, you can select three victims.


 * Victims only last for a night. If the target visits the victim the night after, nothing will happen.

If the brainwashed target visits any victims, they will now have a hidden tag of "Scared of [x]".

Having the tag of "Scared of [x]" in the code will cause you to appear as if you had visited the victim you are scared of when they die.

The brainwashed target will always appear as the investigative results of the victim they are scared of.

Necronomicon: You will deal an unstoppable attack to anyone a brainwashed target is scared of.

Mechanics -

Sort of complicated: At night, you have two slots in the name section similar to witch.

You can choose someone to brainwash in the first slot.

You can choose three targets with the second slot, who are victims.

If the brainwashed target visits any victims that night, they will become "Scared of [x]".

The brainwashed target will now appear as if they visited the victim they are scared of when the victim dies.

The brainwashed target will appear as if they are the victim's investigative results.

With the necronomicon, you deal an unstoppable attack to the person who a brainwashed target is scared of.

Notifications -

(Selecting target)

"You decided to brainwash [x]." "You decided to make [x] a victim."

(Brainwashed victim visits a victim) "[x] is brainwashed into fearing [x]."

(Necronomicon Attack) "You obliterated [x] with the power of fear!"

-Investigate Results-

Sheriff -

Suspicious (Innocent with Necronomicon)

Investigator -

Lookout, Forger, Witch/Coven Leader, or Phobos.

Precise - 

Your target is the deity of fear. They must be Phobos!

-Achievements-

Fear the plague - Brainwash someone into fearing Pestilence. (They'll die from visiting Pestilence in the first place.)

Fear the dark - Brainwash someone into fearing a Lookout.

Problems:

This role may be overly complicated. The best summary I can think of is:

=== Choose one person to brainwash, and three others to become a victim.

Victims will only last one night.

The brainwashed target will become "Scared of [x]" if they visit [x].

The brainwashed target will now appear as if they had visited [x] when [x] dies.

The brainwashed target appears as [x]'s investigative results.

You deal an unstoppable attack to anybody who a brainwashed target is afraid of with the necronomicon.

==

This role is too similar to a rival.

Unstoppable attack is not a good idea, but is blockable by doctor (and rather annoying).
