Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-40031436-20190720230801

Name: Rogue Alignment: Mafia Support? Mafia Killing? Lore: After spending what seemed like decades in a war prison, leaving him alone and entertained by only his own thoughts, he finally managed to escape the prison, left mentally scarred. Now, keeping to his own thoughts, he moved to the peaceful Town of Salem. Ordinarily, he would leave the past alone, but the past haunts him furiously. When he saw the Godfather accepting hire, he decided it was best to accept. I mean, what was there to lose? A family for his personal sanity, and even a great opportunity to practice his war strategies, offensive and defensive, and maybe, just maybe, save lives. All to fill the bottomless hole in his soul. Attack: Basic/ None Defense: Basic/ None Unique: No Abilities: - Choose to either defend against or attack visitors. - This role becomes a Mafioso if there is no more Mafia Killing Attributes: - Every night you may either Protect or Pounce - If you Protect, you give all Mafia members Basic Defense for the night - If you Pounce, you attack visitors with a Basic Attack - You may only Protect/Pounce thrice Mechanics: At night, two bars will appear next to your name, labeled Protect and Pounce respectively. If you Protect, you give all Mafia members Basic Defense, including yourself. (This does nothing to the Godfather as he already has Basic Defense.) If you Pounce, you deal a Basic Attack to all visitors, making it basically a less powerful version of the Veteran’s Alert. Investigative Results: Sheriff: Your target is suspicious. Investigator: Vig, Vet, Mafioso, Ambusher, Rogue. Consigliere/ Witch: Your target is a mentally insane war prisoner, they must be a Rogue! Goal: Kill anyone who would oppose the mafia. Wins with: Same as normal mafia. Must kill: Same as normal mafia. Anything else: Pros of the role: - Decently balanced IMO, and is actually useful to the mafia. - Can basically attack any TI’s that are suspicious of you. Cons of the role (because all balanced roles have cons): - Difficult claim space (Vet- no one wants to visit you, and Vigi is a sus claim.) - Hard to kill NK, because of only a Basic Attack, one of the biggest downfalls of this role, but it keeps it balanced.
