I have a question though: If you accept to confess your role, do you get to pick any role variant, or does it automatically transit for your role? If so, then it's OP. If not, then it's fine. It's kind of whispering done at night. It's a very interested idea. It is very easy to confirm, though, and that is OP for a TI. A way to fix it would be, perhaps, disabling whispers for the character? They could send it, but he wouldn't respond.

If that change is made, then I really like this role and would consider it ​ACCEPTED.

But at the moment, it's ​REJECTED. Yes, you can pick any role, you can lie about your role. The Emissary then has to decide whether the claim is worth announcing to town. For example, if the target confesses Jailor, then he's obviously Jailor and it would be a bad idea to announce it to town. But if they confess Medium, with for example a Janitor in game, it would be good to announce and allow town to deal with it from there.

I don't know why some people are saying this is OP, and some people are saying it's UP, I think it's just right.
