Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-216.164.228.71-20190123215706/@comment-37322933-20190123235254

First, I would like to point out that the point of this role is probably to un-confirm "confirmed" Mediums when another Medium or a Retri comes into play. Admittedly, this is unlikely, but Foxy, it's supposed to be a Medium rehash.

I would agree this role is underpowered, but that can fixed a little, by making a simple command to talk to the Mafia instead of the dead, or vice versa (up to the creator which would be default).

For example, you could write "/m the Sheriff says [x] is sus", which would send it to the Mafia.

Next, the seance while alive is probably to trick the town and appear as an actual Medium that died. I would recommend you being able to seance while dead, too, to give information to the Mafia.

This role is certainly underpowered, but it's a good rehash, in the same way Consort is meant to be a rehash of Escort.

Props to you two for being nice, now I'll talk about buffing the role somehow.

Like I said, there should be a way to communicate with the Mafia AND the dead, like /m or something. A seance while dead would also be nice.

I can see something else in this role, too, just because of the name. It doesn't have to just communicate with the dead. Maybe you could give it an ability to establish a connection between two Mafia members, so they can talk completely privately during the day, again with the /m command.

That way, this role helps the Mafia give each other information, and can also fake out Medium to the point of total confirmation.

I dunno how balanced that is, I'm just trying to help this guy out (to the point where the role has changed completely) Poke, Fox, tell me what you think. Hopefully Mr. Anon comes back and takes a look.
