Right

The Khaganate is made up of roles that can work together, but do not know who each other are. Khanate members can identify each other by inviting them to the Khaganate (this idea of 'factions not knowing who each other are' has been suggested before. I know.) They can talk to each other once they have identified each other.

ooh, thats new.

'''All Khanate members can use a day ability to invite somebody to the Khaganate at night. If they guess correctly, the person will join. If they invite somebody that is not a Khanate member, the person will be alerted that "_____ tried inviting you to the Khanate!"'''

Khazar - Search one person each night. If a Khanate member is identified, the Khazar will be alerted. Frames effect this.

Right.

Khatun - Provide clues to who else is a Khanate member. Works like Psychic.

Sounds fair enough

Uyghur - Gets three times to invite somebody to the Khaganate without alerting somebody of who they are.

Alright

Tatar - Watches who somebody visits at night. They will also know if a Khanate member visits somebody, but they will not know who they were.

Tracker rehash.

Mongol - Get four attacks to use instead of inviting someone to the Khaganate. They can select themself at night to attack. They can attack Khanate members that have not yet been identified. finally a killer

fin So, the main problem I see with this is that there isn't exactly a way for this faction to eliminate others. They'd spend the entire game trying to figure out who's who with their mediocre abilities, while the mafia/coven, who already know who everyone on their own faction is, kill people every night.

I'd suggest changing the goal to something along the lines of Naroki's suggestion and making them more of a neutral faction that just needs to survive and find each other. It certainly is original, but in my opinion it would need a good bit of tweaking to work.

Also, I get this is pretty general so there aren't any results, but some alignments would be nice, at least :P

Overall, not bad. It's new, and promising, though currently really underpowered in comparison to the other factions.
