Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-35836120-20180610120616

Name: Singer

Alignment: Mafia Support

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique Role: Probably Yes

Abilities:


 * Choose any person (excluding yourself) to sing a specific song genre

Attributes:


 * Control Immune (Not sure about this one)


 * Roleblock Immune


 * You'll turn to a Mafioso if there are no capable killing roles left


 * Detection Immune

Mechanics:

You either sing:

Jazz (Effects on a non-mafia) They'll lose their focus on their action (The results of their action will not be revealed)

(Effects on a mafia) They'll be immune to roleblocks and witch's control

Country (Effects on a non-mafia) They'll receive a random event messege (e.g. "Someone threatened to reveal your secrets, you are blackmailed." Even though they aren't)

(Effects on a mafia) Both of you will swap investigative results for the night

Pop (I could change this one since it doesn't really fit the game's theme) (Effects on a non-mafia) They'll visit themselves (they will not be informed that they visited themselves)

(Effects on a mafia) They will know who visited them that night (just the names)

So basically you sing for either a mafia, or a non-mafia with a different song genre, you can't sing the same song genre on the same person, so you have to pick a different genre other than jazz if you chose to sing jazz on the same person a few nights ago. You have to sing a specific genre for a specific situation so you'll have to choose wisely on what you do.

I don't know if being detection immune for a mafia is allowed, but the point is (logic aside) the singer is a famous person who secretly works with the mafia, and choosing to sing country for a mafia would mean they'll appear as not suspicious or will appear as your own investigative resuts.

So the point of this role is to confuse the whole town (mostly TIs) while still being a situational mafia role. I don't really know if this would be an OP or UP role.

- Investigative Results -

Sheriff: Your target is not suspicious (still not sure about this one)

Investigator: Your target is either an Escort, Transporter, Consort, Hyptonist, or a Singer

Consigliere/Witch: Your target is a famous star who sings for the public, they must be a Singer.

Goal: Kill anyone who will not submit to the mafia

Wins with: Mafia's standards

Must kill: Mafia's standards

Note: I'm quite open to criticisms (Although please be gentle, not too gentle but the right amount lol), since I don't really have that much experience in thinking of a role, I don't know if anyone also already came up with this role, but I'm sure I'm not the only one
