Unique : Yes

Interesting. ​​​​​

Attack : None

Defense : None

Description : You are a sneaky onlooker watching your target’s every move

Tip : If a seeker seeks you and you use your role on someone else, the seeker will know your role. hmmmmm?

Alignment : Town (Investigative)

Abilities : At night, choose a target and see what action they take or use on another person

Attributes :

~ You will not know the name of the person that your target uses their action on

~ If something happens to your target you will find out what happened

~ You may only seek four times

'''So it's like a swingy consig. I really like the limited uses, since it makes the Seeker a lot less RNG because it's more likely to save its ability for later in the game. Maybe limit uses to 3? (I mean every other TI is swingy too, but this is quite a bit more)'''

Goal : Lynch every criminal and evildoer

~Investigative Results~

Sheriff : You cannot find evidence of wrongdoing. Your target seems innocent.

Investigator : Your target can be a sheriff, executioner, werewolf, poisoner, or seeker

Nice, helping out sheriff and giving exe and ww a new claim.

Consigliere : Your target seeks what actions people use on others. They must be a seeker!

~Examples of Seeker’s Investigative Results~

~ Your target roleblocked someone!

~ Your target mauled someone!

~ Your target was healed by a doctor!

'''I thought it only sees actions the people do. Either way, I would remove this, because Spy's bug already sees messages their target gets.'''

~ Your target was killed by a member of the mafia!

I feel like this is a little bit like tracker, but i dont really know. it seems kinda op to me, knowing that your target killed someone, but you'd find that out the next day anyway. same thing goes for if your target is roleblocked, they most likely will say so in the chat the following day. let me know if this is too similar to another role, and what i should cut and buff to this. also the name of this role is kinda bad in my opinion so please leave me suggestions. :) It's kinda like a better Investigator with limited uses, so it wouldn't be that useful in the game, but I dunno, so I'll wait for someone more experienced to come along and give suggestions for now.

1) Remove the messages like "Your target was roleblocked!" or "Your target was healed!", because Spy already does that.

2) I would limit uses to 3, because all 4 probably aren't going to be used, making it more likely the Seeker would potshot early game and hope to get an evil or confirm a townie.

3) It'd be nice if you provided a full list of messages based on abilities your target uses. Like, Investigator and Consigliere might be "Your target investigated someone!" and Doc/PMer healing would be "Your target attempted to heal someone!" I was thinking of there being three uses because i thought it would be too op with four, but i remembered its supposed to be ti but i can change that
