Role: Analyst

Goal: Lynch all evildoers!

Alignment: TI

Attack: None

Defence: None

Unique: No

Attributes and Skills: The Analyst will choose two players at night. The first one has to be alive, and the second has to be dead. It will then tell him which days the alive player has visited the dead player. '''This is pretty unique, it could be very powerful when seeing if someone is the mafioso or not. Or proving if a bodyguard claim was actually on the dead jailor. However it is balanced out by the way it is one specific person on another specific person, making it very hard to find info you aren’t looking for, meaning it’s more of a role that can only really prove or disprove things, not find new leads. So it’s more of a town support role like medium.'''

Text: “You decide to check for John’s fingerprints on Lucas!”,

“You change your mind, you will now check for Drake’s fingerprints on John!” Wait isn’t John alive?

“Drake’s fingerprints match with John on N2, N3, N7!

Sheriff results: Not suspicious.

Invest Results: Lookout, Forger, Coven Leader, ANALYST.

Witch/consig results: He examines corpses for evidence, he must be the Analyst.

Other Stuff: He is basically a buffed Tracker/Lookout, under stricter conditions. Because he has to choose 2 players and hope they match, it is unlikely he’ll find a match most of the time. However the Tracker/Lookout only chooses 1 target and finds visits immediately. The later the game progresses, the better this character will become. As during early game, it is near impossible to find 2 matching people, however, late game, you can match one of the last 3 other people with a recently killed player and you basically have a 1/3 chance of finding the killer. Oh yeah that’s basically what I said

This may be a little buffed for right now. However, if in the future there is a new faction which is really powerful, I’d like to see a character like this added. I like this tbh, I can’t think of any necessary changes. I’d only suggest changing it to town support since it can’t find leads early, similar to medium.
