Summary: you're an ex law-enforcer who wants revenge on the people of Salem. ​​​​​​I like this.

Backstory: He had never had someone to lean on. Through out his childhood he had seen children get hurt, but standing up again whit the help of parents, but he had never rechived any of that love. His father was the leader of the, and his mother had left to start a Cult. His father had lost fait in him quicly, and left him to die. When he got older, he became a deputy working under the. He was a skilled, he even learned to see through framing and hexing. And for the first time, he felt like he was wanted... But his father didnt like this. Suddenly, the called him out as a member of the  and the  turned on him. He tried to hide, but the found him. He tried to seek help from his mother in the, but she didn't want him. He even tried to get the to convert him, but they didn't whan him in fear of the. But then he looked over to the and he saw himself. A loner hunted by everyone, even hunted by their own. And he decided; these are his people. '''Nice backstory, but try to avoid writing backstories on Role Ideas. They aren't as necessary as the info, and a lot of people on the official forums just stop reading as soon as they see backstory.'''

Defence: none

Attack: basic

Unique: yes

Ability: choose someone to visit and someone to frame each night. So...a framer?

Attributes: You have an Astral visit. '''An astral framer. I don't like this being an astral visit as it makes this role super OP.'''

You will know at the end of the night if you have been investigated, but not by who. Why is this necessary?

You will get the investigation result of the last person you killed. You will not have any result at the start of the game, meaning you will show up as "Not suspicious" to the and as nothing to the. '''Nothing? Would the investigator immediately know you're an Outlaw, then? They'd get you lynched immediately.'''

If there is a visit triggered mechanism on the visited target you will attack your framed target whit a basic attack and blame the mechanism (ex: you visit a alerting, you will attack your framed target whit a basic attack. The next day your traget will be shown as killed by a ). The mechanism wont be triggered, but wills till send a message. Meaning (for.ex) the will get a message saying they attacked someone, but they didn't. '''​​​​​​​See, this is why I don't like this being an astral visit. It defeats the whole point of a Veteran's alerts. I know other roles have Astral visits, but they have excuses as to why (Hex Masters only have astral attacks with the necro, etc.)'''

Your framed target will be shown to visit your attacking target to a or to a  tracking them.

Investigative results:


 * *The result of the person you last killed*


 * *The result of the person you last killed*


 * Your target is skilled at staying under the radar. They must be a Outlaw.

Goal: Kill anyone who have betrayed you.

Must kill:, , ,

May win with anyone else.

This is a really nice idea, but is pretty OP. Tweak it a little (make it a little weaker) and make it easier for TIs to find it.

Overall, good job!
