 Role- Terrorist (Unique Role)

 *Please read Strategy and additional notes for my opinions on this role before commenting*

 Story- Actions speak louder than words. Killing a person makes people worried, but completely annihilating everyone, including yourself, to kill a target or two... well, that strikes fear into the hearts of your enemies. Enough fear to make it so they never oppose your allies again. With that in mind, the Terrorist went into the night, not to kill, but to send a message.

 Alignment- Mafia Killing

 Summary- A bomber who sacrifices himself to kill others.

 Goal- Kill everyone who will not submit to the Mafia.

 Abilities- Blows himself up to kill a target, and anyone who visits that target (goes through night immunity).

 Attributes-  The Terrorists ability cannot be used on night 1.

 If there are no other capable mafia roles left you will become a Mafioso. This applies before any other Mafia role.

 If the target is being guarded by a Bodyguard, it kills the Bodyguard and the target in addition to anyone else that visited the target.

 If the target is healed by a Doctor, the target lives but the Doctor dies and anyone else who visited the target dies.

 Your ability can kill anyone that vests, but will not kill a Doctor that self heals, or is healed by another Doctor (it will kill the Doctor that healed, but not the Doctor that got healed).

 If you use your ability on a jailed target, it will only kill the JAILED target. The Jailor and everyone who visits the jailed target will live.

 Special Attributes- Control Immunity

 Control Immunity - You cannot be controlled by a Witch. This will NOT display a special message to the Witch saying you could not be controlled. You will also receive a message saying "A Witch tried to control you."

 Sheriff- Your target is a member of the Mafia.

<p class="MsoNormal"> Investigator- Your target works with explosives, they must be a Terrorist. (New category for Investigator since this role doesn't fit the others too well).

<p class="MsoNormal"> Consigliere- Your target will blow themselves up to kill others, they must be a Terrorist.

<p class="MsoNormal"> Win Conditions-

<p class="MsoNormal"> Win with the Mafia

<p class="MsoNormal"> Win with Witches

<p class="MsoNormal"> Win with Survivors

<p class="MsoNormal"> Must kill the Town

<p class="MsoNormal"> Must kill Serial Killers

<p class="MsoNormal"> Must kill Werewolf

<p class="MsoNormal"> Must kill Arsonists

<p class="MsoNormal"> Notes- The Terrorist will kill everyone who visits the target (Investigators, Lookouts, etc.). The only way to survive the Terrorist is to be healed by a Doctor.

<p class="MsoNormal"> Strategy and additional notes-

<p class="MsoNormal"> Well this is going to be a lengthy explanation covering pretty much everything about this role so prepare for reading! First of all I came up with the name more to suit the story of this role. No this is not your typical "Allahu Akbar" stereotype terrorist, this is simply a role whose sole goal is to strike fear into enemies of the Mafia (the town). I wasn't just calling this role a Terrorist because he blows himself up. Now that we got that out of the way, as you can see from the Terrorists ability, this is a VERY powerful role if used correctly. I believe it's a great way to break the current Mayor game meta where everyone just whispers their roles to Mayor and he can easily figure out who is lying or not. This is also why I believe he should be able to kill jailed targets. This is a tactic that not only the Mafia can use to kill the Mayor guaranteed, but this can be used by the Town to guarantee minimal casualties if they suspect a Terrorist is in the game. I would also propose to switch one thing in ranked play as well, instead of having Godfather, Mafioso, and a random mafia, it can be Godfather, Mafia Killing, and random mafia. Both Mafioso and Terrorist are unique enough roles (and Unique Roles, coincidentally) with their own special benefits. This also gives a bit more variety to Mafia play. Now for anyone that's actually bothered to read all this, before you go shouting "Omg this role is so op stop posting plzzz", understand that this is a Unique Role, and losing 1 of 3 mafia in a standard ranked game will make it a lot tougher on mafia. Especially since no one else will be able to become Godfather on the Mafia if there is a Terrorist in the game (unless the Any happens to be a Mafioso). "So even after all that, this role seems a op still" I hear you all thinking and the answer is, well kinda. This role would completely reshape the way we play Town of Salem. Not having a bunch of people visit a single role will become necessary, or you risk just completely losing the game. The best way to beat the Terrorist is simply find them before they act and lynch them. This will also give way to new ways for an Executioner to try and get that easy Day 2 lynch. If the Executioner claims to be an Investigator and found out that "X" is a Terrorist, people may feel more pressured to lynch them on the off chance that they are a Terrorist. I do believe at first sight this role is a bit op, and even after reading all of it, it may still seem op, but I believe this would just simply cause a change in meta, and a change in the way people would play Town of Salem.

<p class="MsoNormal"> I'd appreciate to know what you think of this role and how (or if) you would like to see it implemented in the game. Also please rate 1-10 to show how much you like this role, or how much you'd like to see me get lynched by the town.

<p class="MsoNormal"> I will try to address all concerns and comments.
