Alignment: Neutral Killing

Attack: Powerful

Defense: Basic

Unique Role: Yes

'''Okay. All nice so far.'''

Abilities: Choose a house to sing a tune towards on rainy nights

'''When is a rainy night, exactly? I assume it's not every night, nor every even night, because those are taken. So is it all the odd nights?'''

Attributes: Singing a tune towards a house will lure a visitor to that house towards you, from there you kill this visitor.

'''Visiting mechanics. Ya see, assuming that a rainy night is every odd night, this thing has 0.5kpn and can't increase it at all. Making it based off of visitors just gives it a chance to hit a house with no visitors, and get no kills. Also, how are you going to kill roles like, , , etc?'''

Mechanics: Every rainy night you transform into a beautiful siren that sings a tune towards the house of your choosing. One of the visitors to that house will be lured towards you. You will then murder this unsuspecting player. (Lookouts and other roles such as tracker will see you visiting the house you sing a tune at but, will not be lured by your song.)

'''What if / are the only visitors? Do they just not die, because they can't get lured? '''

-Investigative Results-

Sheriff: Not Suspicious

'''Make it so that on Rainy nights, it shows up as a Siren. We don't need nerfs.'''

Investigator: Your target is a Medium, Janitor, Retributionist or Siren.

What's it supposed to claim?

Consigliere/Witch: Your target sings a mystifying tune. They must be a siren.

Okay.

Goal: Must successfully lure and kill three players

Wins With: Every faction

Must Kill: N/A (Kill three players by luring them away)

'''Neutral killing = kill all who oppose you. If it's goal is not that, put it in some other Neutral slot.'''

Anything Else: The implementation of this role would have to make rain a thing that happens in Salem. This could be an on-off thing like the Full moon but, I believe it should be a percentage chance to somewhat nerf this role. Maybe like a 15% chance every night to be a rainy night, however, that may be too low. Suggest your thoughts on the rain feature in the critique if you are writing one please <3. To be honest, it's a very good role concept, but it's WAY underpowered.

Changes I'd make -

Make every night have a 2/3 chance of being rainy (or, every 3 nights, 2 of them are rainy). This way, you get 2/3kpn. The previous chances were just way too low.

Change goal to "Kill all who oppose you". All Neutral Killings should have this.

If it visits a house with no visitors, it will lure the target, even if the target can't visit. This way, it can gaurantee it's kills, and also kill non visiting roles.

Put it into either the Lookout results or the Tracker results. Those are the only 2 roles it can really claim, so put it in one of their results.

​​​​​​​Let it be able to kill Lookouts and Trackers. This is so that it confirms it's kills no matter what.

Make it show up as Siren to Sheriff on Rainy Nights. We don't need Sheriff nerfs.

Playstyle -

Just kill randomly until someone calls for TP/LO. When someone does that, you probably want to go for it, to get rid of TP/LO. Also, try targeting the suspicious players to eliminate TI, which can bust you easily.
