Way back when I suggested a role called the Scammer, A neutral chaos role whose sole purpose in life was to make money of the poor residents of town of Salem by exploting ones own intelligence. Intelligence is kind of like Defense in a way. Except that this defends you from none physical attacks like mind games. Looking back on the role now It seems like a really stupid idea. But I liked the idea of someone who made money so much I wanted to improve on this concept. This lead to the creation of a merchant

Now me as a person i'm one for "balancing" ideas too much. So most of the roles I create are really underpowered. So do expect this role to be no different

I also am incapable of creating a complete idea by myself so I leave it to the replies to help me with creating things im strugling with completing. So I would apreciate it if you could help me here aswell.

Cool.

Now enough reading. Lets actually do this:

Name: The Merchant

Role: Neutral Benign

Background: Life growing up for the merchant was really difficult, he grew up in poverty for most of his childhood, yet his parents never gave up. The merchant's dad taught him enginerring and crafting. One night the merchant, now living on his own was tinkering with some random scrap he found until he created something really intriguing. He tried selling it and to his suprise it worked. He then went on to making a semi-stable buissness. He saved enough money to buy a house and makes enough money to support his familly. However after the economy crashed his buissness closed. However taking after his parents, he never gave up. Now he wants to rebuild his buissness and rebuild the economy.

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique Role:  (What do you think? yes or no?)I say yes

Priority: 5?

Abilities: 1. Create A Product. 2. Sell A Product

Attributes: (Again, What attributes should this guy have?)

Mechanics: During the day. He is pretty much just a vote. During night he can create products and put them into his stockpile or he can sell one of the products to a fellow member of the salem community. How does this effect the person he is selling the object to I dont know I think they should do nothing (please help me). During the first night he can choose to either to sell things kindly or aggressive. If he picks kindly he doesn't sell objects as often but he needs less sells to win because the town will like him and be willing to support him. Is he revealed or no? He he chooses to be agressive he will sell objects more often but he needs more objects to sell because the town will distrust him and think he is just another lunatic wanting to make a profit. Does he gain any sort of attack/defense here?

Sherrif: NS

Investigator: (Help me) I would put in the LO/Forger/Witch/CovenLeader column

Consig/Witch: Your target is a determined father who wants to rebuild the economy. He must be a Merchant!

Goal: Sell 2 objects (Kind) Sell 3 Objects (Agressive)

Wins With: Everyone

Must kill: The weeds in his garden (No one)

Anything Else: Tell Me What You Think. Is he a decent role or do I need to work on him
