�Name: Love Advisor

Alignment: Town (Investigative)

these are always fun

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique: No

Priority: (Optional): 4

all good^^

Abilities:

- You can make 2 people love each other. If they ever visit each other, you will be informed they did the visit and who made the visit, and who they visited.

'''this is literally lovers. also, this isn't allowed ;-;'''

Attributes:

- No

'''just..no? :C'''

Mechanics: (How It Works): Every night you can choose 2 ppl. If they ever visit each other, you will be informed when and who the visitor was. So if you chose James Bayley and Derp, and Derp visits James Bayley night 2, you will know that Derp visited James Bayley. This is also to stop confusion from transporter or if you chose Derp twice as a target.

'''so.. 2 people per night? that's a lot, but this ability is pretty close to useless from my point of view. '''

-Investigative Results-


 * Your target is not suspicious.

alright, good


 * Your target is Bodyguard, Godfather, Arsonist, Crusader or Love Advisor.

3-1-0-1. It's okay.

/: Your target suggests love. They must be a Love Advisor!

'''that... is pretty weak'''

Goal: Town goal.

okay

Anything Else: If you are rb'd, you aren't able to select 2 ppl. However if one of the couples visits the other person, you will still be informed.

'''yeah, like spy. makes sense'''

Strategy: Just choose ppl you think are important, visit alot or evil.

figured

Msges: 'You have decided to advise Sarah Wildes tonight!' 'Derp visited James Bayley last night!'

shouldnt the first message include two people?

Name: Driver

'''this is 1696. there were no drivers ;-;'''

Alignment: Mafia (Deception)

Attack: None

Defense: None

Unique: No

nice and standard

Priority: (Optional): ???

right.

Abilities:

Each night you can swap all messages two players would receive. You may talk in Mafia chat. If there are no other killing-capable Mafia Killing, you will become a Mafioso. You may also target Mafia.

'''so, kind of like hypnotist, but a bit different. fits the faction.'''

Attributes:

- No(?)

Mechanics: (How It Works): Every night you select 2 ppl. All messages they would receive are swapped. However sometimes you would know something is wrong, like a Doctor is getting Sheriff results sent to them! If one of the targets was in jail nothing happens.

'''figured. that has potential.'''

-Investigative Results-


 * Your target is a member of the Mafia!

All good there


 * Your target is Escort, Consort, Transporter, Hypnotist, Driver or Scarecrow!

2-3-0-0. Not the best, but fine.

/: Your target drives around to cause confusion. They must be a Driver!

not bad-

Goal: Mafia goal.

Anything Else: No

all that is gort

Strategy: You could just cause confusion, but you could also use it for investigating purposes! If you suspect someone is Inv, you could swap the Inv and the GF! The GF would get the result and could confirm it rlly was Invest, and the GF would know somebody with that result was ingame.

Msges: 'You have decided to drive Deodat Lawson tonight!' 'One of your targets was in jail so nothing happened.'

mhm Love Advisor points

+At least the idea is new. Nothing beats a nice fresh concept, unlike anything alreadypre-existing in the game.

+Next up, the stats. All of that is well balanced for a town role. The results are well done as well, the only problem being the consig result, which could really use some fixing. It's rather basic.

-Well, this does break a major rule found on https://town-of-salem.wikia.com/wiki/Making_New_Roles. Cupids aren't allowed, and this is pretty much exactly that. Not much to say besides that

-Also, the role has good balancing. The ability itself is't extremely useful, but the fact that you use it every night makes up for that. Though towards the end of the game you could be getting a lot of questions, which makes me question whether you can make one person fall in love with two others.

Overall, I'd give it a

"maybe not"/10 IGN

Driver points:

+So, the role is nice and simple, which is pretty cool. It messes with the townies, which can't really be too confusing, and is also definitely in the mafia's style, so there's no way for there to be a problem with the alignment, either.

+I find that this role also has the perfect amount of strength. It has plenty of potential to mess with the town, whilst still not being too overpowered.

-Again, this is a small thing, and I know that, but there obviously weren't any drivers at the time of the Salem witch trials. I know that lore isn't too important, but this isn't slightly, off it makes no sense

-Other than that, not too much is wrong. Even the consig result is fine, and though this role is kind of similar to hypnotist, there's not too much of a problem.

Overall, I'd give it a

"not bad :D"/10 IGN
