I'm going to try to complete Neutrals first, then Mafia, then town. I know it's pretty annoying having multiple roles and most of them are filler. So, I'm going to focus on a single alignment until one gets in, and then I'll move on to the next one. First on the chopping block is Neutral Killing. Alright, let's go.

The Historian (A more powerful role I've made)

Alignment: Neutral Killing

Attribute: Kill everyone your target visited in past nights

Abilities:

Can't attack on night one


 * Makes sense!

Kill everybody someone visited prior nights. For example:


 * Hmm. I see an issue immediately with the stalemate factor.

John Willard has visited Ann Hibbins, Samuel Sewall, and Giles Corey. John Willard won't die but because in history he has visited these three people, they die.


 * Alright, I love how you’re using the visitors. But what if this happens:


 * A game with 1 historian and 5 mediums. What happens? Historian can only bluff himself out of the way.

Night Immunity

Sheriff: NS


 * I think Sheriff should be able to detect once the Historian has attacked.

Investigator: Your target knows your darkest secret, they must be Spy, Blackmailer, Jailor, or Historian


 * Pretty balanced!

Consigliere: Your target is researching who you've been visiting, they must be Historian.

Win Conditions: Wins with Survivors Witches, and Historians (Not Unique)

Balance: I personally don't think this role is as overpowered as it looks. Honestly, when I came up with it I just forgot about it because it is way too overpowered (which it kinda is) but there are a handful of roles that don't visit anyone. Spy, Medium, Mayor, Veteran, and Retributionist would all lead to a useless night for the Historian. Then again on night six they ideally knock out six - three people depending on who they visited in nights past. I think this would lead to town having to be more aggressive in the beginning because 1/4 times they get the Historian who is very weak in the early game but enormously destructive in the late-game. Anyway, I think this is a clever concept so I will be defending it below. So yeah, hope you enjoy.

How're you gonna kill people if there is like 3 mediums and a historian? You can't fit it with LUCK.

The Historian were stabbed by the Serial Killer!

(teh squad help me on this one, we're gonna need backup)
