Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-174.16.68.148-20180108020022/@comment-28112409-20180110190159

Mafia shouldn't ever have protectives. They are much less likely to get killed at all at night than their major opponent, the town.

If you want a role to be able to tamper with investigative roles and their results, you go buff the Framer and make it useful.

The most important thing is, it's a waste of space. The camouflager can't do anything about a jailed mafia member, has limited uses, and is challenged to predict when one of their mafia will get attacked or investigated. Knowing who will get attacked or investigated is nigh impossible to get information on unless the Town decides to openly state it in your face so a vig can shoot you or something. I can imagine scenarios where most of the time, the ability uses would get completely wasted and the role would be a waste of space.

I'd prefer a Janitor for protection over this role.
