Unique: Yes K

Attack: None K

Defense: None K

Summary: You are a Mage that was deemed a liability by the Coven, you've decided to join Organized Crime instead. K

Passive: Instead of an ability you have a passive that protects the entire mafia from incoming attacks This can essentially allow a Healer to be AFK the whole game, due to them not having any targetable abilities.

Attributes: Each time a Mafia member gets attacked you will protect them with a basic defense

The Godfather gets powerful defense

If the Mafia is attacked twice you will die and your protection will dissappear '''Do you mean the total amount of times Mafia members have been attacked combined or if one Mafia member is attacked twice? Also, does lynching count as an attack?'''

You are not protected so if you get attacked you will die. This seems a good balance.

If a Doctor/Potion Master heals you your protection will be reset and you can take 2 hits again This could lead to some form of gamethrowing if these roles were to intentionally target the Healer.

- Investigative Results -

Investigator: Lookout, Forger, Amnesiac or Healer K

Sheriff: Your target is a part of the Mafia K

Consigliere: Your target protects you from death. They must be a Healer K

Goal: Kill anyone who doesn't submit to the Mafia This role seems decent overall, however, you may want to clear up things regarding the mechanics of "attacks against the Mafia".

Also, this seems like a Doctor rehash but more powerful. The entire Mafia excluding you gains extra defense, which seems absolutely ridiculous. Also, due to their only ability being passive would allow for a player playing this role to go AFK for the whole game, and still be useful.

Overall, this seems like a more powerful Doctor rehash, which is a major issue.

Pros: Unique concept with the passive ability.

Cons: Too passive, OP Doctor rehash.

OVERALL RATING: 5/10!

Suggestions: Nerf its passive ability, give it a targetable ability so that they aren't useful if AFK.
